Chapter 175: Chaos in Konoha [67]
Chapter 175: Chaos in Konoha [67]
In the end, Kurenai Yuhi decided to stay.
No one slept on the sofa.
The three bedrooms were sufficient.
And once everyone was asleep, time quickly ticked on to one in the morning. Under the cover of night, many ninjas donned their masks and began to move stealthily.
The house where Fengye lived was soon surrounded by dozens of Root ninjas. Some stood atop utility poles, some on nearby roofs, and others on the surrounding walls.
Whoosh! Whoosh!!
Danzo's figure emerged from the darkness and approached them.
"Lord Danzo, the area has been cleared," a Root ninja reported in a low voice.
Danzo turned to him and asked, "Are you sure it's clear?"
"The two Anbu agents living next door, the two on distant stakeout, plus two patrol ninjas and one lookout—they've all been taken care of." The Root ninja continued, "However, there was a slight hiccup. There are now four people in the room, one more ninja than expected."
"Who is it?" Danzo inquired.
"Kurenai Yuhi, Kurenai Shinku's daughter," the ninja replied.
"Oh, that's of no consequence," Danzo said dismissively as he started walking towards the house. He then sealed his hands, and chakra began to flow.
Several nearby Root ninjas also sealed their hands, not to assist Danzo in performing ninjutsu, but to conceal his chakra fluctuations, ensuring that his technique was executed silently.
Five minutes later...
Buzz!!!
A pitch-black darkness suddenly enveloped the entire house. This darkness spread across all the buildings, penetrating every wall. From a distance, it looked like a dark veil of light had covered that area.
It had taken five minutes to cast this genjutsu, undoubtedly an extremely powerful area-of-effect illusion.
And almost at the very moment the genjutsu took effect...
Wilderness Rin, who was sleeping in the room, suddenly opened her eyes. Her pupils transformed into the distinctive tomoe of the Three-Tails before shifting back to her regular eyes.
"What's going on?!" she exclaimed, startled by the unusual surroundings. Her senses immediately picked up on the multitude of ninjas rushing towards her location.
The voice of the Three-Tails resounded in her mind, "It's an illusion, and I've already dispelled it for you."
BOOM!!!
As the Three-Tails' voice fell, the room exploded.
Rin, realizing what was happening, grew solemn. Chakra erupted from within her, and three tails swayed behind her as the power of the Three-Tails Jinchuriki soared skyward.
This massive chakra disturbance couldn't be suppressed, instantly alerting all of Konoha.
Uchiha Clan's Territory
"That chakra... is it a tailed beast?!" Uchiha Fugaku exclaimed, suddenly sitting up in bed. He threw off his covers, his eyes revealing the Three Tomoe Sharingan as he looked towards the source of the chakra disturbance.
Then, his gaze shifted once more.
"That direction is..." he muttered.
At the same time, in the Hyuga Clan's Territory
Hyuuga Hizashi, startled from his sleep, leaped out of bed and climbed through the window onto the roof. He activated his Byakugan, peering towards the direction of the chakra eruption.
"Is that... a Jinchuriki of a tailed beast?" he asked, his eyes narrowing in suspicion.
He could see a house shrouded in darkness, obscuring what was happening inside. Outside, on the street, a girl bathed in immense chakra was fighting masked ninjas, trapped within a barrier they had erected.
"Anbu? No, they're not Anbu... These ninjas... and that direction..." Hyuuga Hizashi squinted, his mind racing through countless thoughts.
Rin's identity as the Jinchuriki of the Three-Tails remained a closely guarded secret.
However...
This did not hinder them from realizing something else.
"Isn't that where the Silver Flash lives? Why can't I sense his chakra..."
Despite the unclear circumstances, it seemed not to be an external threat, and the sudden eruption of combat was peculiar. Thus, the ninjas who noticed the situation here mostly refrained from taking action, merely observing from a distance.
There were two ninjas, however, who acted immediately.
Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Minato Namikaze.
A Flying Thunder God Kunai appeared on the street outside Fengye's door, and in the next moment, Minato's figure flashed into view. He wore the Fire Shadow's Haori, his eyes fixed on the nearby battle.
"Rin, what's going on?"
Minato instantly recognized the ninjas here as Danzo's Root members and immediately directed his attention to Rin, who was trapped within a barrier created by the Root ninjas.
Rin, manipulating the power of the Three-Tails, was doing her utmost to try and break through the barrier. Upon seeing Minato appear, she exclaimed, "Teacher Minato! These guys suddenly launched an attack!!"
"..."
Minato's eyebrows furrowed, and he quickly understood the situation.
It was at this moment that another figure descended. He was short in stature, clad in black combat armor, and an immense chakra surged within him.
"What's going on here?"
Hiruzen's deep voice rang out, and he then looked toward the direction of the darkness, his eyes flashing. "The Second Hokage's Dark Seal Technique? No, there's something else at play here... Danzo, what are you up to?!"
Hiruzen bellowed, his hands sealing in a jutsu. He pressed his hands onto the ground, and in an instant, countless jutsu formulas spread out, rushing toward the house.
At the same time...
Minato also sprang into action, throwing a handful of Flying Thunder God Kunai, causing the area to flicker with light as the nearby Root ninjas were struck down.
The darkness shrouding Fengye's house gradually dissipated, revealing the state of the interior. The entire house was in ruins, enveloped by a purple light barrier.
The Four Violet Flame Formation!
Upon seeing this purple light barrier, Hiruzen's figure halted in mid-air, and Minato's expression changed as well. He threw a Flying Thunder God Kunai, but upon contact with the Four Violet Flame Formation, the kunai was swiftly incinerated to ashes.
"Danzo! What are you doing?!"
Hiruzen shouted toward the interior of the Four Violet Flame Formation.
Within the formation, on the second floor of a room, Danzo stood calmly, his hands pressed downward. Countless black text-based jutsu formulas intertwined and spread out from him.
"I'm using the Corpse Demon Curse Seal Technique. It will be successful in another six minutes. There's no way you can break through this Four Violet Flame Formation in six minutes."
Danzo maintained the jutsu as he calmly responded to Hiruzen, "So instead of that, Hiruzen, why don't you deal with the village's reaction—explain to them that the Jinchuriki of the Three-Tails suddenly went berserk, and Root and the ANBU are working together to suppress it."
