He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 283 Itachi and Kisame Attack (Second Update)

Li Chuan had deliberately shown Zabuza some of his strength to prevent the guy from having any other ideas over time.

Ultimately, Zabuza isn't exactly a good person; people are working for him now mainly because of mutual benefit.

So sometimes, a little gentle nudge is necessary.

After giving Zabuza a dressing down and exchanging a few more words with Kino, Li Chuan spread his flying sword wings and transformed into a streak of sword light, fleeing towards Konoha Village.

Before leaving, he hadn't gone to Konoha to learn ninjutsu from the Third Hokage because he was going to make a deal with Kakuzu and Orochimaru. Now, his first goal is to go to Konoha and learn all the valuable Konoha ninjutsu.

In fact, most ninjutsu are no longer useful to him, especially some elemental ninjutsu, because he got quite a few from Kakuzu, which is enough for him.

However, there are some ninjutsu that he prefers.

For example, the Third Hokage's self-created Shuraken Shadow Clone Technique is a special ninjutsu that can create shadow clones of thrown weapons, which can be combined with his flying sword wings.

His flying sword wings can shoot out up to 10,000 small flying swords at once. If he were to create shadow clones, the number would increase dramatically, and the power would also increase significantly.

There's also the Flying Thunder God Technique created by the second generation.

Although he now has Apparition for close-range combat and Door Key for long-range combat, the Flying Thunder God Technique is still a very worthwhile technique to possess.

Because of its unique feature, as long as the Flying Thunder God Technique formula is imprinted in advance, it can be instantly teleported there.

This technique can be applied to objects or people, and with sufficient skill, it can be achieved instantly and without the user even noticing.

This is something that Apparition and Portable Key cannot do.

In the future, if he wants to track someone, he can brand the Flying Thunder God Technique on that person. That way, as long as the person doesn't remove the technique, he can find them instantly no matter where they go.

In addition, there are other ninjutsu techniques with special effects that you can also learn.

Li Chuan's sword escape speed was extremely fast, and before long he saw Konoha Village surrounded by wooden walls again.

He retracted his flying sword wings and landed a short distance away, then walked to the south gate of Konoha Village.

"Kamizuki Izumo and Kotetsu, it's you two guarding the goal again!"

Seeing the two Chunin wearing green vests sitting at the table by the door, Li Chuan raised his hand to greet them.

When Kamizuki Izumo and Kotetsu, who were chatting idly, saw Li Chuan, they immediately stood up and showed respectful expressions.

"Your Highness!"

The noble prince of the Land of Fire saved the Third Hokage and countless Konoha ninjas and civilians during the last attack on Konoha by Orochimaru and the Sand Village.

Now he has become the fourth disciple of the third generation.

With so many accolades bestowed upon them, how could they not feel respect?

"I am a Konoha ninja now, so you don't need to call me Prince anymore, just call me Kawai."

Li Chuan smiled and took the initiative to register.

"Yes, Lord Kawa!"

"Kamizuki Izuki and Kotetsu said at the same time."

Seeing this, Li Chuan waved his hand, then passed through the gates of Konoha and entered Konoha Village again.

Upon entering Konoha, the first thing he needed to do was to report to the Third Hokage, so he didn't look for anyone else and headed straight for the Hokage Building.

Whether they were Konoha ninjas or villagers, everyone he encountered on the road recognized him and showed him great respect.

However, just as he reached the bridge over the river at the border between the north and south of Konoha, he suddenly sensed something, raised an eyebrow, and turned to look to his left.

"Huh, that's strange, why are these two guys back in Konoha?"

Five hundred meters to his left, in the middle of the river, two groups of people were facing off.

One group consisted of two people, both wearing identical black trench coats embroidered with red clouds. The other group consisted of three people: a man and a woman holding kunai, both injured and wary, and a third person kneeling on the water, panting heavily.

Indeed, the ones wearing black and red cloud-patterned trench coats are Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki from the Akatsuki organization, while the other three are Asuma, Kakashi, and Kurenai from Konoha.

In the original storyline, Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki did indeed visit Konoha during this period.

That's because the Third Hokage died in battle, and Konoha's strength was greatly weakened after Orochimaru's "Konoha Crush Plan," which is why Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki wanted to take the opportunity to come and retrieve the Nine-Tails.

Of course, he knew that Itachi Uchiha's real purpose was not to retrieve the Nine-Tails, but to warn the Konoha leadership, especially Danzo, not to have any ulterior motives towards Sasuke just because the Third Hokage was dead.

But now that he was there, the Third Hokage hadn't died, and Konoha's strength hadn't suffered any significant loss, so he originally thought those two wouldn't come.

"Perhaps it's because of Sasuke's Sharingan."

After thinking it over carefully, Li Chuan had a general idea in mind.

He guessed that Itachi Uchiha came here for another reason: to help Kakashi better master the Sharingan so that he could guide Sasuke's training.

Currently, in the entire Hidden Leaf Village, apart from Kakashi, no one else possesses the Sharingan.

However, because Kakashi's eyes were transplanted from Obito and were not his own, he wasn't very good at using the Sharingan.

It is estimated that Itachi Uchiha wanted to use his Tsukuyomi to seemingly severely injure Kakashi, but in reality, he wanted to help Kakashi develop his Sharingan, allowing Kakashi to better grasp the secrets of the Sharingan and thus guide his younger brother Sasuke in his training.

Otherwise, given Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki's strength, how could Kakashi have discovered them so easily if they had infiltrated Konoha?

The key point is that even though he, like a butterfly, flapped his wings so big, Kakashi still fell under the Tsukuyomi spell.

This can only mean that Itachi Uchiha's use of Tsukuyomi on Kakashi was a pre-planned event, not a chance occurrence.

"Alright, I need your Sharingan anyway."

Touching his chin, Li Chuan vanished from the spot with a phantom teleportation.

Meanwhile, 500 meters away in the middle of the river, Asuma and Kurenai, who had been instructed by Kakashi to close their eyes, heard Kakashi's heavy breathing and asked with concern:

"Kakashi, what happened? Can we open our eyes now?"

"No, you can't open your eyes yet!"

Kakashi, enduring the intense mental damage from being hit by Tsukuyomi, replied intermittently.

As Itachi's former captain in the Anbu, he knew all too well how formidable this rogue ninja, who became an Anbu captain at the age of thirteen, was.

So when he sensed that Itachi was about to use his Sharingan to activate a genjutsu, he immediately told Asuma and Kurenai to close their eyes, while he himself only kept the eye with the Sharingan open to fight back.

However, to his surprise, the current Itachi was much stronger than the Itachi he remembered.

Even though he was using the Sharingan, he still fell for the opponent's genjutsu.
