__________ POV Narration__________ The very concept of an entire hidden village surrendering to a bounty hunter was unheard of. And that was with good reason. Even the Grass Village, one of the weakest ones, had around 350 Shinobi. Around 40 of them were just Saburo's clones. Even if the majority of them were Genin, they made up a force large enough to make other villages wary of them. The Grass Village was by no means strong, but they were stable enough, especially since it once had the support of the…

_________ POV Narration _________ '... How can someone heal so quickly!?' Saburo and the elders that had witnessed that scene were all flabbergasted. But they weren't scared, at least not yet. All of the Shinobi in the village were already gathering towards the Kage building, so it didn't matter how fast Ken could heal, he'd still die at the end of the day. 'But those scales are unnerving... Something tells me that I should at least flee with my main body...' Saburo's instincts were a bit better though,…

_________ POV Narration_________ Ken blended into the shadows, his black cloak covering his body, his white mask being the only thing that was standing out. But he was smart enough to keep away from anyone capable of spotting him, he crept into the shadows, flying past their village's small walls with a single leap. 'Since they've not intercepted me yet, I can safely assume they have no way of tracking me if I didn't trigger the alarm.' With that, Ken became a lot more confident, knowing that he…

_________ POV Narration________ Finding shelter did not take long, there were plenty of places one could use to hide near the border of Kusagakure's territory. Akira was the only one that needed rest, as Ken was neither injured nor tired from the previous fight. When it came to endurance, he was already unmatched. The thief didn't seem to have any issues with waiting for Ken in that cave. But it was made rather clear that he wouldn't be waiting for more than one day there. For one, it wasn't safe for…

_________ POV Narration_________ Akira dashed through the forest with great speed, he had been followed, but his pursuers were left in the dust, unable to keep up with him. The thief looked back a few times before he finally came to a stop and hid in a tree. 'What do I do now?! Do I go back and try to help him out? I mean, I doubt I can do much there, it's why I ran away in the first place... But maybe I can be of more help from the sidelines?' Akira was well-aware that he had left Ken alone against…

_________ POV Narration_________ Akira's hands trembled a bit as he prepared to defend himself, he figured the situation was quite dire if the Red Dot was claiming he wouldn't be able to escape. In his anxiety, he somewhat missed the part where Ken said he wanted to avoid massacring them, so he now thought that they were going to have a difficult fight on their hands. 'Let's hope we can reason with them...' "Don't get your hopes up about diplomacy, Akira... When someone pursues you like this it's…

_________ POV Narration_________ Ken didn't waste much time in tying the man he had just knocked out. It had been easy, surprisingly so. Ken had admittedly expected to have quite a bit of trouble taking on a supposed Kage Killer. 'For such a highly valued target, he sure was a letdown... Though his speed took me by surprise, it wasn't that great compared to my own.' Akira's speed was greater than anything Ken had actually seen before. But it was still nothing too shocking or impressive, especially…

________ POV Narration________ A, the third Raikage, smiled as he read through the reports on his desk. His sharp teeth munched on some sweets as he found out more and more about the bounty hunter he had been constantly hearing so much about. It had already been a few months since the Raikage had first heard of 'The Red Dot' being in his territory. That was his actual first appearance for the Shinobi World in general. Mabui, one of the Jonin at the scene, did manage to give him quite a few extra…

__________ POV Narration __________ Mabui stood there for a while, contemplating the logistics of meeting and talking to an actual Kage-level samurai, who also happened to be a bounty hunter. Now, saying that Ken was Kage level might've been a bit much, but Mabui really had no good frame of reference on anything in between Jonin and a Kage. The criminal that Ken had just decapitated was also in between a High-Jonin and a Low-Kage level of strength, but he was far from being called an actual Kage. Sure,…

_________ POV Narration_________ "Teacher... What was that guy's deal?" The young girl Genin asked as she jumped from tree to tree alongside her Jonin handler Mabui. Mabui herself was still contemplating that strange meeting. 'It's strange that I've never heard of someone like him before... He's far too strong to not have a reputation... Unless he's just starting...' "Y-yeah... He looked really creepy." One of the other Genin muttered as he looked ahead with a slightly scared gaze. "It's unbecoming of…
