When the bubble appeared on the assumed trajectory, Naoto felt a burst of pleasure for adequately predicting its travel, and moved closer to watch, though careful to approach from the direction of the main trail to the village in question. It would provide an excuse if suspicion was the reaction.
Naoto expected that it would be, but she was incredibly curious about that jutsu, and the fact that it ended automatically, and if what she’d overheard led her to the correct assumption, had somehow been programmed to follow a certain path to an expected destination, and not just drifted, which Naoto might have expected from a jutsu like that.
As her target was shinobi, and she had no other evidence to go on for his apparent strength and skills, Naoto could only assume he was already aware of her approach, and so didn’t attempt stealth.
“Excuse me. I saw a bubble descending from the sky near here…”
Hmm, that would do. It wasn’t too forceful, and it wasn’t accusing. If he had reason to hide the bubble’s origin, she wouldn’t be prompting violent response, though she hoped he didn’t.
