Outside Konoha Village.
Might Guy carried unconscious Shisui on his back, and followed Kakashi as they galloped through the woods, behind them were a large number of Anbu of the Root subunit led by Shimura Danzo.
He was at a loss at this moment and muttered, “How did things turn out like this?”
“Sigh, I don’t know.” – Kakashi’s face gloomy, although he has yet to figure out the whole situation, he has keenly noticed that their Team-11 has become prey to a certain conspiracy.
Guy asked, “Do you think that the mission Kuroto is assigned to has something to do with what’s going on here?”
Kakashi wasn’t sure, the mission that Kuroto was suddenly assigned was unknown to the other members of the team-11.
And Uzuki Yugao who was temporarily assigned to team-11 as a replacement for Kuroto’s absence was sent to watch over Uzumaki Naruto by him, hopefully, she will safely bring Naruto back to the village.
But there were more important things they have to consider now, which was the information about the assassination of Sandaime-sama, whether that is true or not, “What do you think about the information about Sandaime-sama’s assassination?”
Guy glanced at Shisui and said, “We know that it wasn’t Shisui, so there is no doubt about that.”
Kakashi nodded, “Right, it wasn’t Shisui, and I don’t think that the Uchiha Clan would choose to do anything of the sort at this point, so the only other possibility is a comrade of that masked man, he did have Sharingan, so it is possible that his other comrades also have Sharingan, and this attempt was likely either related to Akatsuki or Amatsukami, Sigh, I hope that Hokage-sama is safe otherwise the situation could turn worse for the village!”
Guy said, “Do not worry Kakashi, we must trust Hokage-sama, he will be safe.”
Kakashi helplessly shook his head at Guy’s optimism, then glanced backward at the chasers that were following him, and muttered with a frown, “If this goes on, we will be overtaken by them sooner or later!”
Guy asked, “So what do you suggest?”
Kakashi thought a little and said, “I will hold them, and you will take Shisui to Team-11’s 4th rest house, after I lead them away, I will meet you there.”
Because Anbu shinobi have to perform several secret missions, so almost all Anbu have certain hideouts spread throughout the country as they can’t interact with general shinobi or common folks during any mission.
Guy hesitated a little, “Kakashi, you alone…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore Guy could finish speaking, Kakashi has already turned around facing the Shinobi coming towards them, he did not glance back at Guy but said, “That’s an order, treatment of Shisui’s injuries can not be delayed, go, I will meet you at the hideout as discussed!”
After speaking that, Kakashi did not wait for Guy’s response and rushed towards the crowd of Shinobi, as a very familiar chirping of thousands of birds rang throughout the forest.
Looking at the determined back of Kakashi, Guy nodded, “Do not die Kakashi, you are my eternal rival, you are not allowed to be defeated by others!” Leaving that sentence he did not hesitate anymore and rushed towards the hideout.
Kakashi shook his head helplessly after hearing Guy’s words, but he had a smirk under that mask.
…
In Konoha Village.
Currently, everyone had a gloomy expression as Hiruko managed to escape with the help of his synthetic bird.
At the last moment, Hiruko so decisively sacrificed his limbs which somewhat shocked everyone, nobody considered the possibility of his limbs being able to suddenly explode.
But that aside, now they have to consider the threat of Hiruko several levels higher than he used to be.
Hiruko’s strength although not fully displayed in the battle against Fugaku still showed what he is capable of should he gain enough experience in using all the five Kekkei Genkai in perfect combination.
Dealing with Hiruko in a one-on-one battle has already become impossible and who knows what kind of monstrous existence will he become in the future.
It would require at least a team of shinobi with very high group strength and perfect coordination to be able to deal with Hiruko.
And nobody knows whether it would be possible to defeat him even in that situation, so defeating him currently when he is still not at his hundred percent potential was a diamond opportunity.
If they had gotten rid of Hiruko just now, then not only they would have managed to eliminate a Shinobi who harbors deep hatred towards Konoha, but also destroyed Chimera Technique, as well as also obtained internal intelligence of Akatsuki.
But unfortunately, the chance was missed, and now it would be extremely difficult to kill Hiruko next time.
With broken fragments of chains remaining in her hand, Elder Utatane walked towards Sandaime and said, “Hiruzen, Hiruko is too dangerous to be left alive, we must notify all the other shinobi villages about his existence and work together to eliminate him. No village will allow a Shinobi who can plunder other’s Kekkei Genkai to stay alive.”
Elder Mitokado with the scroll in his hand also walked here, “From the Kekkei Genkai he has used we can now confirm that all the four shinobi other than Uchiha Hiiragi in that period have become his prey, and we have also confirmed that the shinobi who attacked Raikage’s entourage was a member of Akatsuki, not of Amatsukami.”
Akatsuki and Amatsukami have become Sandaime’s headaches.
At this moment, two Anbu who went after team-11 finally rushed back to the village and reported about Elder Shimura Danzo’s brazen attack on Uchiha Shisui to Sandaime.
Hearing of the attack, Sandaime brown wrinkled and he glanced at Fugaku and the other Uchiha and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that they were not paying attention here.
Understanding the complete situation, Sandaime ordered, “Call back Shimura Danzo under my order, also protect Team-11 from any accident until they safely arrive at the Konoha Hospital. Check up on the situation of Jinchuriki, and ask Eagle to come to my office. Too much chaos has already happened in the village, I do not want to deal with any more trouble for the day!”
The Anbu shinobi nodded one after another and went on with the tasks.
…
It did not take too long for Guy to arrive at the hideout as this was the nearest one to the village.
The so-called hideout is just a cave transformed into a simple residence that carried all the essentials that an Anbu would ever need amidst his mission.
Shisui’s injuries were of two types.
Firstly, some small burns were caused by those exploding tags before Shisui activated his Susanoo as a shield. But this injury was nothing serious.
The other injury was caused by Shimura Danzo when he severely struck his crutch on Shisui’s backbone. From the outside, this injury doesn’t look much serious but it seems that there was a needle hidden within the crutch that spread some kind of potent poison in Shisui’s system, which is probably the cause of Shisui’s unconscious state.
After giving Shisui the antidote that was left to team-11 by Kuroto, Guy could only wait for the antidote to take effect, so all he could do was nervously wait for the arrival of Kakashi.
Fortunately, it did not take long for Kakashi to arrive, and as soon as he came Kakashi said, “Other Anbu reinforcements led by the captain of Hokage-sama’s guards helped me get away from them!”
Guy nodded, and explained Shisui’s injury to Kakashi in detail, and then added, “I was not sure whether the standard antidote distributed to Anbu would work so I used the antidote given to us by Kuroto, I hope it works.”
Kakashi nodded and then said, “Now let’s go back to the village!”
Guy said, “But what about Danzo-sama!?”
First and foremost, “Danzo-sama do not have any authority to order us around or declare us as defected-nin, moreover other Anbu shinobi have already displayed their stance by protecting us, so we have nothing more to worry about. In fact, I ten to think that the reason he attacked Shisui was also purely acting upon his greed, because he wanted…” – Kakashi stopped halfway through his words and did not continue anymore.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn any case, Shimura Danzo is one of the Elder Advisors of Konoha, as such Kakashi did not dare to voice out his speculation about Shimura Danzo’s malicious intentions towards Uchiha Shisui without any conclusive evidence, as that could be counterproductive, even if it just him, Guy, and unconscious Shisui here.
…
In the forest near the Uchiha Clan.
The Kunoichi Oto Yumie is tied to a wooden cross, with her hands and legs not capable of moving even an inch, surrounded by the cawing of crows all around. Wherever she looks all she sees are an uncountable number of crows, in this unclear and mysterious world.
And even though she realizes that this is most certainly the result of a Genjutsu, she is still unable to break free of it. Much less breaking free, she can’t even open her mouth here.
Even if she wants to shout or cry from the pain of thousands of Crow feathers piercing her per second, but there is no cry, only pain, and agony.
At this time, an indifferent and omniscient voice sounded.
“You dared to touch my Otouto, that was your biggest mistake! Now suffer in these hell flames until not even your ashes are left behind!”
“Amaterasu!”
And the sudden appearance of Black Flames of hell was all she saw before she ceased to exist, not even a cry of pain escaped her mouth.
With Oto Yumie gone, Itachi crouched on the branch of a tree, his hands over his both eyes. He felt a deep pain in his eyes, it felt as if needles were being pierced in his eyes, but that was nothing compared to the pain he felt when he saw Sasuke being strangled to death.
A while later the pain finally ceased and Itachi walked back to the Uchiha Clan, he wasn’t worried about Sasuke because he knows that Sasuke has already safely reached, back home, via a side trip of making a friend.
…
On Uchiha Tsukihi’s side.
Tsukihi slowly put down her hand from her right eyes and said, “That idiot, he actually dared to resist Sandaime-sama’s Enma staff! He was being a bit too arrogant; doesn’t he know that Sandaime-sama was able to push back Kyuubi with that staff?” – muttered Tsukihi as she continued to run in the direction of Death Forest.
Before her departure, Tsukihi had already left behind a few crows which helped her monitor the progress of events after she retreated. So Hiruko’s cool debut, arrogant performance, and finally, a pathetic escape where he almost lost his life were all seen by her.
After shaking her head in disappointment, Tsukihi let go of any thought related to Hiruko and muttered to herself, “Team-11 did not show up here from beginning to end, what exactly happened to them?”
“Forget it, with Shisui, Kakashi, and Guy present, there is hardly anyone who would be able to endanger all of them at the same time, and as long as even one of them is safe, all three of them will be safe. For now, I should hurry to my secret laboratory, store this clone body there and then come back with the main body!”
