"Man!! I am so bored. I also want to join the fun." Kotetsu stares in the direction of the training ground while yawning.

"Our shift will end in a few more hours. I am sure we will be able to make it during the last event of the day." Izumo consoles him.

Today is the first day of the Konoha's Annual Seven Days Sports Festival. The preparations for the festival took months; from decorations and event arrangements to the preparation of invitations.

This festival is the only source of entertainment for the desolate and mission-driven shinobis of Konoha in recent years. This festival was first proposed by Izuna Uchiha as a reward for one of his successful missions. The Hokage Office approved the idea and later implemented it as a tradition. Being a shinobi festival; it is a highly anticipated event among shinobis and civilians alike.

Through participation in the events, the shinobis can enjoy a much-needed break and even obtain some rewards from the Hokage if they perform well during the events. As for civilians, it provides another source of income since even normal civilians can take jobs like street and venue decoration to earn some extra money. Civilians can open stalls to sell their homemade items, including food, clothing, decorative items, and much more. However, the main attraction of the festival is the carnival held every day after the finale. Performers from various other nations will demonstrate their skills to entertain adults and children alike. One can also buy items from wandering merchants from other nations without the need to visit the nation.

However, the festival this time is much more important than the previous ones; since it's the first-time other shinobi nation are invited to attend it. Multiple shinobis from Kiri, Kumo and Suna wander across the streets of Konoha.

Ayaka, Hanabi, Yakumo, Konohamaru, Udon, and Moegi wander across the streets of Konoha as they shop for items.

"Tch… it's so boring. Assigning an inspection mission even on the day of a vacation." Konohamaru grumbles as he secretly monitors the shinobis from other nations.

"Honestly, it's not that bad compared to what big sister Hinata has on her hands." Hanabi shakes her head.

"Also, it is still some time before our event starts. It's not too bad to enjoy the atmosphere." Moegi shakes her head as she stares at a jewelry shop in anticipation.

"Ayaka, Hanabi, Yakumo… let's check that jewelry shop. I heard it was quite popular last time. I missed it last year, but this time I have saved up enough money from missions." Moegi grabs their hands and dashes towards the shop.

"What's so exciting about a jewelry shop?" Konohamaru scoffs.

"Konohamaru… look… look…" Udon pulls Konohamaru's sleeves and points in the direction of the bookshop.

"The new special edition of Giga Man is out." Udon's eyes sparkle in fascination as he stares at the cover of a comic book. A masked man in a sci-fi suit is printed on the cover page of the comic book.

Ayaka turns around and glances at the comic cover of Giga Man. Few old memories surfaces in her mind.

Since her childhood, she had a habit of listening to a new story before falling asleep. Her mother had exhausted every story present in Konoha's library. But it wasn't enough. Even her uncles and brothers were helpless against her habit.

'In the end, Izuna Nii-san wrote this story for her.' She was quickly fascinated by the modern sci-fi setting of the story. A world where people were able to perform miraculous things without the use of chakra.

This story became so popular in the Uchiha clan that Aiko decided to publish it. Later, it received the award of the best children's tale for ten consecutive years to till this date. Now, this story is serialized by one of his brother's companies. josei

Sigh…

Ayaka takes a deep breath.

'Nii-san, I miss you.'

She enters the jewelry shop with the rest of the girls.

Inside the Konoha Police Headquarters,

Shisui is calmly staring at an eagle-eye projection of Konoha. Several markers of different colors are constantly moving across the projection.

The green markers belong to the members of Konoha's Shinobi force. The brown markers represent the tourists and shinobis from Suna. The blue markers belong to the tourists and shinobis from Kiri. The black markers represent the various merchants from several nations.

Multiple different shinobis in the standard Konoha police outfit constantly monitor the projection. A tracking device is installed on the identity tags and armbands provided to every person who enters Konoha. The tracking device records the chakra signature of the target in the database and will consider it a friendly target. Any unknown chakra signature without the armband will appear as a yellow marker. It will mark hostile shinobis as red targets.

'Such a wondrous Fuinjutsu formation.' Shisui marvels at the sight of the live broadcast of the situation.

"This is the most recent Fuinjutsu formation developed by Lady Kushina. This current event will serve as a trial ground for this Fuinjutsu formation."

'This idea to remotely monitor allies and enemies in the form of beacons using their chakra was first invented by Izuna Nii-san. He developed a framework and merged it with the current monitoring system. However, he wasn't able to complete the task. Thankfully, Lady Kushina was able to complete the work using the notes he left behind.'

Shisui assigns various tasks to the members of the police force. He then proceeds to head towards the headquarters of In-Yō.

---------------

Inside the In-Yō headquarters,

A more prominent version of the Chakra Positioning System is present in the center of the room. Minato, Jiraiya, Tsunade, and the rest of the group examine it as Kushina tweaks around a little.

"Izuna's model was big enough to cover the entire planet. He designed it as a monitoring system to defend against otherworldly beings. Though I am unable to replicate his entire design due to a lack of relevant rune knowledge, duplicating a small-scale model using the known Fuinjutsu runes wasn't a particularly challenging task. Still, this small-scale model is enough to monitor an area of 100 sq. km around Konoha." Kushina slightly adjusts the setting of the globular device.

The projection zooms out to reveal the entire area covered by the Chakra Positioning System.

"The test run seems to be successful." Kushina has a pleasant expression on her face.

"The CPS system in the Konoha Police Headquarters is working fine." Shisui arrives in the room and reports.

Swoosh…

A cat-masked Anbu flicker beside Minato and reports to him.

"The CPS system in the Anbu headquarters is also working as intended." Minato nods in approval.

"Also, Yamato… you can remove the mask." Minato turns to the cat-masked shinobi.

"Yes… Lord Fourth!" Yamato removes his anbu mask.

"The CPS system in the Konoha's detection division is also fully functional." Kakashi arrives in the room and reports.

He turns to Yamato and waves at him.

"It has been a while, Kinoe!"

"Umm… Senpai, I currently go by the name Yamato." Yamato scratches his head in embarrassment."

Kakashi ignores him and turns to the giant projection in the center of the room.

Ah…

"He ignored me!" Yamato sulks in a corner.

"Alright! Now I will sync the data for all CPS systems." Kushina makes some hand signs and slams her palm on the ground.

Swoosh…

A gigantic Fuinjutsu seal covers the entire In-Yō headquarters. A similar invisible Fuinjutsu seal appears in the air around the headquarters of the Anbu, Konoha Police Force, and the Detection Division. Kushina explains the functioning of the CPS system to the group.

'The main core of the CPS system, the device responsible for the chakra detection, is hidden in this pocket dimension present in the center of the village. Three devices that act as amplifiers are located at three different locations in the village. These locations are the respective headquarters of each branch. These devices operate by using a giant Fuinjutsu seal with the amplifiers acting as the chakra nodes.'

For the next hour, Kushina continues to explain the operation method and design of the seal to everyone present in the room.

Mm…

"This will prove to be a huge asset in the upcoming war. His ideas are so far ahead of this time." Tsunade praises the CPS system.

As the group discusses the applications of the CPS system,

PING… PING…

A large yellow beacon suddenly appears on the map.

Hmm…

"This scale of chakra…" The group is shocked to see the extremely large chakra beacon.

"Has the Akatsuki made its move already?" Jiraiya raises his eyebrow.

In the past few weeks, Jiraiya and the members of In-Yō monitored the movements of Akatsuki. They spotted quite a few members of Akatsuki near the Land of Fire.

PING… PING…

Another small yellow beacon appears on the edge of the chakra radar.

"Another one?" The group frowns as they monitor the movement of the group.

"Should we deploy the Crystal Telescope Technique to get visual feedback? Though it might alert a sensory type shinobi." Yamato stares at the large and small chakra beacons.

"There is no need for that!" A smile appears on Minato's face.

"Look at the position of these two beacons."

Hmm…

Kushina turns towards the chakra radar.

"That's… that's the Mount Myoboku shrine outside the village. Which means?" A smile appears on Kushina's face.

"He is back!"

Kushina clenches her fists.

"It has been two years since I last saw him. I won't rest before I give good threshing to him."
