In The dimension where Momoshiki waited, Kinshiki and Urashiki had just returned from their Recon mission.
"Kinshiki, Urashiki," Momoshiki called out the duo's name.
"Hear this Momoshiki,"
"Kaguya failed to let the fruit ripen,"
"She consumed it,"
"Later on, one of her sons split the chakra into nine parts and…" Urashiki explained everything that he understood from Toneri.
"I see…"
"It's a shame that happened," Momoshiki smirked with disdain towards Kaguya's actions.
"What should we do?" Kinshiki asked.
"Urashiki,"
"You like hunting, don't you?" Momoshiki asked.
"hehe…" Urashiki laughed slyly.
"We are going to gather all the nine parts," Momoshiki said.
"When do we go?" Kinshiki asked.
"We have to leave at once,"
"Also, did you happen to hear of any mortal in particular?" Momoshiki asked.
"There was this mortal named Sasuke who fought over Toneri to claim a pure-blooded Byakugan princess," Urashiki said.
"Pure blooded Byakugan princess you say,"
"how much pure-blooded can she be?" Momoshiki asked.
"Doesn't matter, after all, we all have Byakugan," Urashiki said.
"…" Momoshiki remained silent.
"Something bothering you?" Kinshiki asked.
"The High Priest sent a messenger over earlier," Momoshiki mentioned.
"A messenger?"
"What happened?" Urashiki asked with interest.
"There's a mortal we have to get rid off,"
"It should be our top priority,"
"However, after hearing everything from you, it doesn't seem like the backwater planet has any threat,"
"So we'll take some time with our hunt and let that mortal enjoy a few more days," Momoshiki explained.
"So when do we go?" Urashiki asked, licking his lips.
"Let's get started right now, shall we?" Momoshiki said following which he opened a rift.
"hehe…" Urashiki and Kinshiki followed in after Momoshiki.

Hidden Leaf Village…
In the Hokage's Office, Obito stood dumbfounded in front of Sakura.
"Is there anything bothering you, Lord Fourth?" Sakura asked.
"I-I"
("I couldn't believe I forgot to mention to Men- Naruto that Hanato's birthday was in two days,")
("I gave Azami's present, but I forgot to warn him that I didn't have time to look over what Hanato wanted,") Obito thought.
"Lord Fourth?" Sakura called out once again.
"Ah, it's nothing," Obito shook his head following which he looked at Sakura.
"As I mentioned before Lord Fifth,"
"Please consider the offer, after all both you and Menma never spend the time together with your family,"
"Not to mention, your kids birthdays are this week as well," Obito said.
"…"
"All right…"
"Thank you so much, Lord Fifth," Sakura bowed to Obito.
"It's nothing much at all," Obito smiled.
…
"All right then, I will be leaving now,"
"I don't want to hold you back from your work," Obito said, following which he headed towards the door.
Sakura looked at Obito leaving the door, while simultaneously thinking of the conversation Menma, Obito and Nawaki had during their meeting. She then sighed, seeing that she had other things to worry about.
She then walked over to the desk and tapped at the bell.
*DING!*
Almost immediately, the door revealed a young woman with the standard Hidden Leaf vest.
"Yes?" The woman asked.
Sakura raised the hand which had an envelope.
"Have this sent over to the Feudal Lord immediately,"
"Yes!" The woman collected the envelope and left the office.
…
("There's so much more work to do…") Sakura sighed, staring at the bundles of paper, all over the room.
("It's best to finish as much as I can before Lord Fourth takes over, or else he will end up thinking that I am slacking off…") Sakura thought to herself, following which she hustled over and started to sort out the bundles according to priority.
*Knock*
*Knock*
*Knock*
"Come in,"
The door opened to reveal a young woman with tied up blonde-hair that covered half her face.
It was Yamanaka Ino. Ino's appearance in this timeline complimented her nature. She wore a black overcoat that stretched till below her knees, a skimpy tube top that covered only her chest, black shorts with fishnet stocking and black high heels.
"Sakura,"
"I just saw the envelope," Ino said.
"Yeah,"
"That's for the feudal lord," Sakura said.
"Not that,"
"Who delivered?" Ino asked.
"…"
Sakura was silent for a moment. A woman's intuition was hard to beat, in this case, Ino's taste for sadism.
"Shikamaru," Sakura answered helplessly.
"I knew it!" Ino smirked with a desire to devour that reflected across her face.
"So,"
"Where is that shrimp?" Ino asked.
"I don't know,"
"He has the week off, so he could be anywhere," Sakura replied.
"Damn,"
"If I had come here earlier, I would have given him a taste of that 16-hit combo of mine," Ino said.
"…"
Sakura didn't pause to have a conversation since she was already busy in her own right.
"I will head over to his place,"
"Temari must be giving him an earful now," Ino said.

*ACHOO!*
"Hm?" Naruto looked at Shikamaru.
"I have a feeling that I'm going to face something troublesome…" Shikamaru said with a nervous look across his face.
"…" Naruto was kinda happy knowing that Shikamaru was still the same despite being a bit cowardly.
"Let's speed up," Naruto said following which the duo picked up their pace.
…
Naruto and Shikamaru were on their way to the Kaminarimon Group building. As the duo kept running, Naruto took the opportunity to see if he could find any more differences in this world compared to the previous one.
*TRIINGGGG!!!!*
A bell started to ring in a particular building a few meters ahead of them.
"What's that?" Naruto asked.
"It's an alarm,"
"It's not the one for a fire, so I guess its probably the bank," Shikamaru said.
"That must mean…"
"There's a robbery," Naruto and Shikamaru concluded at the same time.
…
A few meters away, in front of the Hidden Leaf Bank, the police force had gathered. Half of the police force wore Navy Blue west with both the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan symbols on either side of their shoulders.
At the lead for three figures. A woman and two other police force members.
"Chief!"
"They have escaped the perimeter," A member of the force reported.
"Hmph,"
"If they think they can get away, then they are dead wrong,"
"Hah!" The woman held up a jutsu sign and activated.
*sh*
Her eyes scanned the building from top to bottom.
"This is…"
"There's a hidden tunnel next to the underground vault,"
"Teams 1 and 2!" The woman called out.
"YES!" Two groups stepped forward immediately.
"Head into the tunnel,"
"Teams 3 and 4 follow me!" The woman said, following which she left the street.
At this moment, Naruto and Shikamaru appeared.
Naruto before the woman left the area caught sight of her silhouette.
"Hinata…" Naruto felt his heart rate speed up.
"Don't tell me we're going to help them out," Shikamaru asked.
"Let's go," Naruto said, dashing off in the direction Hinata left in.
"Such a drag…" Shikamaru helplessly followed behind Naruto.
