As he approached the border of the Land of Fire, Namu was relieved. He could get help for his shuriken wound, inform the Leaf, and changes would be made to settle matters between Light and Leaf.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.
A scout spotted an unknown ninja with a strange headband cross the border. He immediately went to the Hokage's residence.
"Tsunade-sama! Tsunade-sama!" he banged on the door.
"Come in!" Tsunade yelled, showing every sign of impatience.
"I saw a ninja enter the borders, and he seems to be heading towards Leaf Village! He may be a scout for another hidden village. What should we do?" The Hokage thought about this for a moment.
"All right," she finally decided. "Get me these five people." The scout stared.
30 minutes later, four people were standing in front of her. Those people were: Rock Lee, Tenten, Shikamaru Nara, Konohamaru Sarutobi, and Naruto Uzumaki. "About 2 hours ago, a shinobi from the Village Hidden in Light has illegally crossed the borders. Your mission is to intercept him and bring him here for interrogation.
"YOSH! The Flame of Youth burns bright!" exhilarated Lee. "What a pain, what a pain," muttered Shikamaru. "All right! Let's go!" yelled Naruto.
Namu was travelling through the woods and landed in an empty plain when he encountered the five ninja. "All right, that's our man!" Naruto shouted. Namu blanched. "No, no, this is a misunderstand-""Misunderstanding, my face! Come on, let's fight!" Konohamaru yelled as he ran into battle.
Namu felt that he could take these genin and chunin easily, yet he didn't want to hurt them. As he thought that, Konohamaru threw a shuriken at him. He could dodge it easily, even without his dōjutsu, until he noticed his opponent was doing a Shadow Clone sign. 'A diversion maybe?' he thought, until Konohamaru yelled, "Kajuu Kage Shuriken Bunshin no Jutsu!" and the Shuriken multiplied. "NANI?!" he yelled. "That was old Gramps' jutsu!" Konohamaru declared.
Namu had one trump card, when he stole the summoning scroll from the giant pandas. He could only summon wood ones, but all the better, since he respected all living animals.. "I, Inu, Tori, Saru, Hitsuji" *slams palm into ground* "Kuchiyose no Jutsu!", summoning a giant panda which blocked the shuriken. The panda disappeared.
"IT WAS A DIVERSION!" Lee screamed, while he did his famous "Konoha Senpū (Leaf Hurricane)!" He ducked, but Lee was counting on it. "Konoha Gōriki Senpū (Severe Leaf Hurricane)!" "Oh no! It's going to hit pretty bad, even if I use my dōjutsu, but hey, I have another idea!" His dōjutsu activated, which looked like a Byakūgan with a spiral. He took out a wooden paddle, sent his chakra through it, and released the time slow. Lee hit the paddle, which absorbed most of the energy. However, Namu was propelled back about 5 meters. Breathing hard, he knew he used about half his chakra. Lee rushed at him, and he didn't have time to respond. He kicked him up, and up, and… up. He wrapped his hand wraps around him, and prepared to spin his head in the ground. "Shoot, shoot, this is bad, what do I do, this is worse than switching the shoes. Oh, I got it!"
"Hitsuji, I, Ushi, Inu, Mi (Substitution Technique)". Now, Lee was wrapped in his own bandages. "AHH! Help me! Help me!" he screamed. Now, Namu effectively won. Lee was wrapped like a mummy (except for his head) and crying like a baby. Namu picked up his paddle and got ready to fight his next opponent.
