Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-292

The whole body of the attacker was wrapped in mud, and the more he struggled to break free the tighter the grip of the mud became, so much so that, all his movements were restricted. Not to mention printing hand seals, even finger movements were not possible.

But even with the movements of the other party restricted, Sandaime did not dare to be careless, he understood very well that if the attacker is indeed Uchiha Shisui, then he won’t be vulnerable with such a simple technique, after all, Uchiha Shisui has Mangekyou Sharingan, and Mangekyou Sharingan allows the user to use Susanoo.

And Uchiha Shisui’s Mangekyou Sharingan allows him to use Kotoamatsukami, so Sandaime was especially careful of the attacker’s Genjutsu.

As Sandaime walked closer to the attacker, the attacker turned his head and stared at Sandaime with a gloomy expression.

Hiruzen’s eyes flickered, and he muttered to himself, ‘He intends to use Genjutsu?’

There are many ways to deal with Genjutsu attacks, and being the ‘Professor,’ Sarutobi Hiruzen is naturally very proficient in dealing with Genjutsu, so any simple Genjutsu attack won’t be effective against him. But if it’s Kotoamatsukami…?

However, the expected Genjutsu attack did not happen, but what Sandaime saw was just a gaze filled with hatred and spitefulness from the assailant’s eyes.

Seeing those eyes filled with malice towards him, Sandaime was a little dazed, and the Mud Binding Technique that he was controlling to keep the attacker trapped lost its activity.

The attacker immediately realized that the Mud Binding Technique was weakened, and immediately broke free of the Mud binding, he looked to the left, then towards the right, seeing all the Shuriken and Kunai coming towards him, the attacker immediately leaped backward and broke through one of the other glass windows and disappeared into the night.

Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh…

Sandaime did not need to order, two Anbu teams immediately pursued the attacker.

With everything calmed down, Utatane Koharu used Iryo Ninjutsu to treat Mitokado’s shoulder wounds, and said to Sandaime, “Hiruzen, we can’t hesitate anymore, we must act immediately, otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.”

Sandaime thought a little and immediately raised his hand.

In an instant one of the Anbu still left in the Hokage Building appeared in front of the Hokage and asked respectfully, “Hokage-sama, your order?”

Sandaime picked up his tobacco pipe that lay on the Hokage table, and said, “In the name of Hokage, I declare a state of emergency in the village, summon all the clan heads…… including the Uchiha Clan Patriarch, as well as the elite Jonin for an emergency meeting.”

“Yes, Hokage-sama!” – nodded the Anbu shinobi and disappeared. He was surprised that Hokage-sama even asked to summon Uchiha Patriarch, but he did not question Sandaime’s words, as he believed that Hokage-sama must have said so for some reason, maybe to confront Uchiha Patriarch for what happened just now in the presence of all the other Patriarch and elite Jonin.

Regardless, his job is to follow Hokage-sama’s order and he must do so.

With that Anbu member gone off to complete the order, Sandaime looked at the captain of the Hokage Guard who stood next to him, and order, “You lead the rest of the team and follow team-11. Check Uchiha Shisui’s state, if you find something abnormal with his state then immediately subdue him together with Danzo and Hatake Kakashi and if there is nothing normal then notify Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Shisui that I have summoned them, make sure to NOT injure him at ANY cost if not necessary!”

“But Hokage-sama, then your safety…?” – An assassination attempt was made on Hokage while in the Hokage Building, the most secure place in entire Konoha, under the eyes of all the Anbu, and yet they were unable to do anything. Even if the attacker failed in the end, the Anbu members were still horrified, and obviously had a lot of pressure because there is no guarantee that this will be the end of it.

However, Sandaime thought differently, “Go, don’t worry about me, Kyuubi and Uchiha Shisui are more important.”

Seeing that Sandaime still insisted, the captain of the Hokage Guards nodded and left the Hokage Building.

At this time, Utatane Koharu asked with a frown, “Hiruzen, was the attacker just now not Uchiha Shisui?”

Based on the orders given by Hiruzen, it wasn’t difficult to understand that Sandaime believed that the attacker was not Uchiha Shisui.

Sandaime exhaled smoke and nodded.

Elder Koharu was confused, “Why?”

All the information they have up to now points towards Uchiha Shisui, and yet Sandaime says that it wasn’t Uchiha Shisui? Koharu can’t help but be confused by this.

Mitokado who injury has been taken care of for the time being asked, “Hiruzen, did you notice something?”

Sandaime was silent for a while, and then said, “From his eyes.”

Both Elder Homura and Elder Koharu looked at each other with confusion clearly apparent in their eyes, “From his Sharingan?”

Hiruzen shook his head, “Not the Sharingan, but his eyes, I would like to believe that whether Shisui chooses the Uchiha Clan over the village or he chooses the village, his eyes will never have that spiteful look filled with hatred, there may be some guilt but hatred? Never! And yet the eyes of the attacker had deep hatred towards me that it was clearly apparent from his eyes. It seemed as if he hates Konoha from every fiber of his being, so he can not be Uchiha Shisui, Shisui is Kagami’s grandson, and I know that he has the same love towards the village as Kagami.”

Even if the attacker’s performance was impeccable throughout the attack so much so that even Sandaime had no choice but to think that he may be Uchiha Shisui, but it was that hatred-filled look that gave away the truth, which made Sandaime realize a possible conspiracy theory.

…

Uchiha Clan grounds.

An Uchiha Jonin hurriedly rushed towards the Patriarch’s mansion and reported all the news to Uchiha Fugaku, “We have received news that a while after the emergency signal flare was fired, Sandaime had declared that the village will enter a state of emergency, and he has summoned the Patriarch’s of all the clans as well as the elite Jonin!”

Uchiha Fugaku frowned upon hearing this sudden piece of news, and his drowsy state was immediately gone, he asked, “Has there been any confirmation about why the village has entered a state of emergency? Was it because of some sudden attack from Amatsukami? Or any other Shinobi village suddenly declared war on Konoha?”

Sandaime declared the village to enter a state of emergency and summoned all the Clan Heads as well as the elite Jonin in the middle of the night. Such measures are only used when the matter of utmost seriousness, and probably a war has been declared on the village!

“There has been no confirmation as of yet as nobody seems to know the exact reason.” – The Uchiha Jonin shook his head, and said, “But there was no order convened to us, neither to the Uchiha Clan nor to the Konoha Military Police Force!”

Fugaku frowned and immediately noticed that something was wrong, “Issue an immediate summoning order to all the Special Jonin and above!”

If the village were to enter a state of emergency, then Hokage will without a doubt inform the Konoha Military Police Force, as the public security of the village is under the jurisdiction of the Konoha Military Police Force.

It is completely impossible to not notify the Uchiha Clan that has the greatest number of Jonin Shinobi.

But it seems that Sandaime has forgotten the Konoha Military Police Force, which is too abnormal, and there is only one plausible explanation.

Even if Fugaku doesn’t want to believe in that possibility he must at least take the necessary security measures.

The Uchiha Jonin nodded and immediately went out to convene the summoning order.

And Uchiha Fugaku immediately walked to his room, at this time, Uchiha Mikoto, the wife of Uchiha Fugaku has already woken up, and seeing the tense face of her husband she asked, “What’s the situation?”

Fugaku said, “Things are goin-…”

However, before Fugaku could finish his words, a voice from the other side of Fusuma came, “Otto-sama, what happened? Why was the emergency signal flare fired?”

Fugaku turned towards the source of the voice, “Itachi, the village is in a state of emergency, your mother and I are going out for a while to check the situation.”

And Uchiha Mikoto continued, “You will stay at home and take care of Sasuke in our absence.”

Itachi nodded, he wanted to ask more but before he could speak, both Fugaku and Mikoto had already walked out.

Looking at the dark sky and the bright full moon, along with the noisy courtyard, Itachi was suddenly reminded of the night of the Kyuubi’s attack a few years ago. And he had an ominous feeling that tonight is going to be a very long night…

…

On Team-11’s side.

Dog, Cat, Eagle, and Monkey all stopped suddenly.

Because on a tree not far away, Uzumaki Naruto, whose hand and feet were tied, mouth gagged was hung on a tree. He was currently struggling to break free but to no avail.

The captain of the team, Dog did not rush to rescue the tied-up Uzumaki Naruto but asked the eagle while looking around vigilantly, “Eagle… try to sense the traps here!”
