Chapter 10 Organizing

Without any warning, Logan found himself in mid-air. Despite being an experienced Jonin, he couldn't reach for a moment. watched as the ground rapidly approached, then with a thud, he landed ungracefully.

'I'm not in my room anymore.'

Logan's face twisted in discomfort as he got up. Falling down wasn't a big deal, as although he took the impact forcefully, he managed to protect himself with conscious effort and a last bit of chakra, so there were no major injuries.

What really made Logan's expression sour was the sight of his surroundings. The modern furnishings and room had vanished, replaced by the familiar sight of the streets and buildings of Konoha Village.

'I has crossed over again..." The multiple experiences had made Logan less surprised, but the indescribable complexity of emotions still lingered.

Leaning against the wall to ease the pain in his body, Logan looked up and sure enough, not far above was that bulky apartment building. The gap in the alleyway caused by Chidori had been mostly repaired.

'The position has not changed...'

Logan took a deep breath and suppressed his emotions. Looking around, he found himself in a dim alley, and faint sounds of people drifted in from outside.

It seemed that he is very lucky. No one should have seen him suddenly appear and fall from the sky.

'The time isn't right. I wonder how long had passed since I left...' Logan took another look at the white wall of the corridor that still had scorch marks, pondering for a while, then lowered his head and walked out.

He needed to understand the basic situation first. And since this involved Logan's biggest secret of crossing over, he could only figure it out on his own.

Arriving at the boundary between light and shadow, between the alley and the street, Logan stopped. Squinting at the sun above, he knew it was afternoon. There are people coming and going on the road.

Konoha Village is a victorious country in the Great Ninja War. It occupies the most fertile area, and with good management, it can be regarded as the best Ninja Village. There is peace and prosperity on the streets.

A young man with his hands on the back of his head and a sinister look on his face was walking down the street, his gaze unscrupulous. Most of the passers-by looked at him and immediately avoided him, for fear of getting into any trouble.

At a certain moment, as the arrogant youth swaggered down most of the street, a hand suddenly reached out from a side alley.

"Hey, buddy, can I have a word with you?"

"Who the hell are you..." The young thug had not finished pretending to be cool. He was about to get angry when he was interrupted, but the hand grabbing his shoulder exerted great force, and he was pulled into the alley and was thrown to the ground.

Logan couldn't be bothered with unnecessary words, so without saying a word, he knocked out the sketchy youth, then skillfully changed his clothes.

After destroying his original clothes, Logan left the little thug behind and reappeared on the streets of Konoha Village.

'If I remember correctly, this is Yamanote Road.' Logan tried to keep his head down, looking hurried. It would be troublesome to meet an acquaintance at this time, as there would be no way to explain.

An ANBU disappeared and then reappeared in the village. He did not contact the headquarters, but acted secretly. What did that imply? It's obvious that he's an undercover agent, and Logan didn't want to experience a scenario like that.

For a memner in a violent organization, it is very simple to avoid violent organizations. Logan was quite familiar with the habits of Konoha's patrol Ninjas, and soon, he arrived at the gates of Konoha.

The Konoha wall is very high. Not only is it eye-catching when he climbs up, it can also easily attract the attention of ANBU on duty. At this moment, Logan didn't want to be caught by his colleagues, it would be game over for him, given his scarce chakra.

But it was different at the gate. Now in peacetime, there are only two Chunin responsible for daily guarding. Relatively speaking, it is easier to fool them.

The sudden disappearance and reappearance phenomenon was really hard to explain. So during this time, Logan had to come up with a plan. He pretended that during the previous battle, he was ambushed by additional enemies and taken away, then after a 'clever and fierce struggle', he managed to come back.

It's a bit far-fetched, but Konoha can't find any obvious evidence. So, for now, Logan had to leave Konoha Village first and then return. Logan is determined to conceal the secret of his time-travel, even if it meant pushing himself.

Seeing an opportunity, Logan followed a caravan carriage, keeping an ambiguous distance from the people in front. When the two Chunin on duty glanced at Logan, who is using the Transformation Technique, the expressions on their faces remained unchanged. Fortunately, this time the goddess of luck was on Logan's side, and he managed to walk out of the gate of Konoha safely.

"Phew…"

About a kilometer away from the village, Logan separated from the caravan and could no longer hold on. The Transformation Technique was lifted and he returned to his original appearance. While Transformation Technique could fool ordinary people, it is easy for Ninjas to see through it. The two Chunin probably didn't notice, indicating that Logan's grasp of chakra details exceeded theirs.

'Here, the recovery speed of my Chakra is back to normal.' Logan thought to himself.

Relying on the map he had memorized before, he came to the nearest village. Most of the people living there are ordinary people, and there was nothing special about it. They lived off the land, working from sunrise to sunset.

Using the money he had casually taken from the little thug, he found the only small inn in the village. After renting a room, Logan settled down temporarily.

'I had already asked the innkeeper at the counter what time it was, and found that seven days had passed since the day I carried out that mission.'

'Seven days, that's exactly one week.'

Logan sat on the bed in the room, recovering his Chakra while organizing the information he currently knew.

'For seemingly unknown reasons, I was able to constantly travel between the two worlds, Naruto and Earth.'

Logan clenched his fist, and a surge of Lightning burst forth with renewed vigor, 'I had recovered a lot of Chakra in a short period of time. This is an efficiency that was completely incomparable on Earth. Perhaps, it was because of the difference between the two worlds that Chakra, although present on Earth, recovered exceptionally slowly.'

'In terms of time, I had spent twelve years in the Naruto world, while only a moment had passed on Earth, so the flow of time on the two sides is not equal. But when I was on Earth, the time of Naruto passed at the same time as Earth. I went to school for five days and one weekend, which is exactly seven days.'

'The pattern of my crossing had become evident. My body directly travels through space, seemingly disappearing out of thin air. Wherever I was before, I will be where I crossed over.'

Logan's eyes flashed with light, and the words 'To be continued' were still engraved in his mind. He felt that the time of Naruto's serialization is definitely not a coincidence, and in connection with this, the manga published one chapter a week, which coincided with the time he crossed over.

If he confirms based on these for the time being, then Logan can understand his cross over pattern when he is on Earth, which is simply once every seven days. But what about when he is in Naruto World? He had spent twelve years there without incident, until that day when a shuriken flew over...

What is the medium? Or what was the trigger for his return from Naruto to Earth? Logan still doesn't understand, but it must likely to be related to the three words, 'To be continued.'
