As soon as the press conference was over, Alex received a text from Anna asking if he was okay.
He didn't even notice that she waited for the press conference to end, thinking it was just a coincidence.
After reassuring her, Alex got up and walked to the door of his cabin.
Looking at the snowy mountains from where he lived, Alex looked in a certain direction and nodded. "I think it's time to deal with it."
For a moment he thought about calling Bee to accompany him, since Bem was a great fighter, as well as a perfect mount, since he could transform into any super car, or luxury car, but arriving in such a backward world riding something like a car would be very strange.
Sure, he could easily teleport wherever he wanted using the Mangekyou Sharingan, but walking around that world with the Mangekyou Sharingan activated would be even worse than using a car.
Then Alex thought of something. In Fairy Tail, Leo used ice to form ice animals and monsters, what limited these animals with such realistic movements to become mounts?
He could be confused with the Yuki Clan, but what harm would that be? Among all his options, this was the least worst, so without thinking much, he left a message for Bee explaining that he would be gone for a while and summoned an ice horse.
Alex thought about conjuring a tiger to ride, which would be much more badass, but thinking about how the tiger's spine moved when running, it was obvious that that would be extremely uncomfortable, so he just used a horse with nice armor and trotted towards it. to the cave that took him to the other world.
When he arrived at the cave, Alex saw that there were other caves nearby, but they were all closed.
Finally entering the portal, Alex found himself in the same forest he had come from with Bee, but the body they saw that time was no longer here.
Continuing to head straight, Alex found himself riding for an hour until he finally saw a sign of civilization.
From what he was seeing, the place looked like a small town, with possibly around 4 thousand inhabitants, a considerable population for a place like this, so out of curiosity, Alex dismounted the ice horse and made that horse dissolve.
Arriving close to the city walls, Alex saw that there were four guards watching the place, and just as he saw these guards, they also saw him.
Two came towards him, while the other two continued to watch the city gate.

"Identify yourself." One of the guards said while looking at Alex in an intimidating manner.
The four guards had red hair, which already gave a hint as to where he was, but he didn't comment on it and replied politely.
"I am Alex, the Daimyo of the Oasis Nation. I came to your country to talk about a proposed negotiation between our two countries." Alex explained it in a way they could understand here.
Initially he thought about pretending to be an ordinary person, but in the end he just ignored that and said everything at once, with the strength he now had, Alex no longer worried so much about others. If these guards didn't like it and treated him rudely, he would just beat them up and propose to another nation with the offer of Oasis.
When the guard heard Alex calling himself a Daimyo, he was initially surprised, but soon he became suspicious and stared at Alex even more, trying to understand if it was true. "You know that it is a crime to impersonate a Daimyo, to the point that if you are proven to be lying, regardless of your nationality, you will be subject to the death penalty, right?"
"I understand." Alex lied as if he knew this, but not caring about the world, since they couldn't kill him.
But Alex's calm was mistaken for confidence that what he said was true.
Even though he didn't have guards around him, the guard still became suspicious since Alex's calmness wasn't one that anyone would have unprotected.
"Please, wait a moment." The guard apologized and went to his commander, leaving only the other guard with Alex, who was looking at him suspiciously.
Alex smiled at this other guard and ignored him, just looking at the small town in front of him.
'If I'm not mistaken, this small city must be the Uzumaki country, which despite being small, is possibly extremely rich, since the Fuinjutsu scrolls they produced were sold all over the world at very high prices. They would possibly become big Whales at Oasis.' Alex thought.
Within minutes, the other guard returned, accompanied by 4 other guards with red hair like him, who accompanied Alex into the city.
Although they were unsure about Alex's identity, they sent the news to their patriarch as they kept Alex in their sight.
Upon entering the city, the guard who spoke to him at the beginning said again. "You are free to go to the common areas of the village, but we will accompany you while we wait for a response from the patriarch."
"No problem." Alex replied casually, knowing that the Uzumaki patriarch is also the Daimyo of this small country.
Inside the village, despite the very simple and rural appearance, which should mean that people should be simple and happy, Alex noticed a tension among the population, mainly due to their distrust when looking at him, with that white hair and red eyes.
"Look at that man, he has white hair like the White Fang and red eyes like the Uchiha, could he be an ally of Konoha who came to help us?" A worried woman asked another woman next to her in a low voice, trying to hide her gaze at Alex.
Hearing the woman's comparison, Alex found it funny, but pretended he didn't hear anything as he tried to understand what was happening in the village from what he heard.
If they were expecting help from Konoha, could that mean the Uzumaki country was about to be invaded?
'This might be a better opportunity than I imagined.' Alex thought as he smiled internally.
After a few minutes, a ninja jumped in front of Alex and the guards while warning.
"The Patriarch awaits your presence."
