Chapter 297: 289. Prison Break
Inside the Konoha Strict Correctional Facility,
In a prison cell,
A man with green eyes and shoulder-length hair with a tint of blue at the end is scribbling on the wall. He is dressed in prison attire comprising a gray tunic and matching pants.
Scratch… scratch…
He continues to scribble lines on the walls with a rock.
"Three years! It has been three whole years since I am locked up here. Damn you, Konoha! You ruined my life!" He mutters to himself.
Bang…
He angrily crushes the rock into powder.
'I need power. I need more power to escape from this place and exact my vengeance!'
He has a frantic expression on his face.
Hissss…
A white snake silently slithers through the prison walls.
Whoosh…
The snake jumps in the air and coils around his neck.
Ah!
The man panics as the snake entangles around his neck. He grabs the Snake's tail to free himself.
Hisss…
The snake hisses at him as a whisper falls in his ear.
"Do you want power?!"
"What?!"
He stares at the snake in confusion.
"Do you want the power to exact vengeance?"
"This…"
He stares at the snake in trepidation.
"Can you give me power?"
Hisss…
The snake hisses wildly and slithers towards his hand.
Fwish…
He bites on his hand.
Argh…
The man clutches his hand in pain as the poison spreads through his arm. The poison condenses into a dark black skull mark.
Argh…
He winces in pain and passes out.
After an hour,
Huff… Huff…
He breathes heavily and lays down on the ground as the pain subsides down.
The white-haired man slowly stands up and looks at his body.
"I feel so light! Strength is coursing through my body!"
He turns towards the prison bars and grabs them.
Clank…
He bends the cold steel bars with his bare hands.
"This strength!"
He quickly turns towards the white snake.
Hiss…
The snake flickers out its tongue and spews out a scroll.
"Come to this place, if you want to change your fate and exact your revenge!"
The man tightly clutches his fists.
"Haha… With this power, I will exact my revenge. Just you wait, Konoha! Haha…"
Hysteric laughter echoes through the prison cell.
---------------
Later in the evening,
Boom… Boom…
Multiple explosions ring through the prison as the inmates fervently attack the prison guards.
"Quick, lower the bridge!" One of the chunnin urgently asks his partner to lower the bridge.
Crank… crank…
The chunnin pulls the lever to raise the bridge.
Bang…
A fist slams into his body and sends him flying. The chunnin crashes into a wall and loses consciousness.
"What's the hurry? The party hasn't even started yet!"
The white-haired man walks out of the dark corner.
Crack… crack…
He cracks his neck and stares at the prison inmates.
"Raijin, Fujin! Release our other friends from their cells, will you?" He turns towards two figures with gigantic bodies who are following after him.
"Anything for you, Aniki?"
The two figures walk towards the nearby cells.
Clank…
They grab the bars and pull them apart with their bare hands.
Clank… clank… clank…
Both figures continue to release more and more prison inmates.
The loud noise alerts the prison securities as a bunch of chunnins and jounins rush out.
"What's going on?"
The Prison guards notice the criminals escaping from their cells.
"It's the Stupid Brothers! They are jail-breaking other prisoners." A chunnin informs him of the situation.
"What?!" The eyes of the jounins widen in surprise.
"These two were docile as long as you don't disturb their food! What happened today?" One of the older jounins stares at the Raijin and Fujin brothers.
"Food! We will get more food if we follow Aniki!" The stupid brothers continue to free other prisoners.
"Stop them! We can't allow these criminals to escape!
The Jounins take out their kunais and engage with the escaping prisoners.
Meanwhile,
The older jounin engages with the Stupid Brothers.
"Raijin, Fujin! Return to your cell and I will give you an extra serving of food! It's a promise!"
Bang…
Raijin clenches his giant fists and slams them into the jounin.
"Aniki already gave us good food!"
Poof…
The jounin disappears into a puff of smoke leaving behind a log.
'Substitution Jutsu'
Phew…
The jounin reappears at some distance and heaves a sigh of relief.
"That was a close call!"
Ah!
Raijin stares at the wood log.
"He dodged it!"
He angrily turns to jounin and charges towards him.
"Body Bash!"
Raijin drags his enormous body, aiming to smash the jounin into a meat pie.
"This is bad!" The jounin makes some quick hand signs.
"Fire Style: Flame Shot Jutsu"
He expels a long ball of fire.
Bang…
The flame shot slams into Raijin, turning his clothes into ashes. Raijin ignores the fire and bashes into the jounin.
The jounin crosses his arms as Raijin slams into him.
Bang…
The jounin is sent flying from the impact. He slams into the prison wall. His body slides down the wall and loses consciousness.
"We should lock him up!"
Fujin grabs the bars and twists them to lock the jounin.
BOOM… BOOM…
One after another, jutsu flies through the prison as the guards engage with the prisoners.
The commotion grabs the attention of the Warden in a nearby tower. His expression turns ugly as he notices the riot in the prison.
"At this rate, these prisoners will flee and create havoc in nearby villages!"
He takes out a scroll from his pocket and scribbles on it.
Whistle…
The prison warden whistles and summons an eagle. He ties the latter to the eagle's leg and releases it towards Konoha.
'I hope it makes it on time!'
He dashes towards the prisoners with a kunai in his arms.
"Quick! Destroy the bridge! Don't allow these criminals to escape from this place!" The prison warden instructs the chunnins near the bridge.
"Yes! Warden-sama!" The chunnins make some hand signs and spew out a multitude of jutsu to destroy the bridge.
-----------
Back in Konoha,
Haah…
Tsunade heaves a sigh of relief.
"Finally, the paperwork is over. I can take a breather now!"
Shizune massages her shoulders.
"Shizune! Let's go out for a drink. I have yet to taste the new wine Izuna brought for me!"
"Yes, Tsunade-sama!"
Shizune nods her head.
Tock… tock… tock…
An eagle pecks its beak on the window.
"This is an emergency messenger eagle!"
Shizune hurriedly opens the window. She picks up the scroll and passes it to Tsunade.
Tsunade unfurls the scroll and reads its content.
"Emergency! It's an emergency, Hokage-sama! The prisoners are breaking from the Konoha Strict Correctional Facility. We need urgent help to calm the situation!"
"What?!" Tsunade folds the scroll as her expression turns ugly.
"Konoha Strict Correctional Facility is the top security prison of Konoha where the most wanted criminals are kept in detainment. How can there be a breach in security?"
She hurriedly summons the Anbu members.
"Quick! One of you, summon the nearby jounins while the rest of you depart for the prison. No prisoner shall escape from the prison!"
Tsunade sternly warns them.
Whoosh… whoosh…
The anbu flickers away in a hurry.
"Damn! I didn't even get to drink my wine." Tsunade bites her lower lip in anger.
Fifteen minutes later,
Whoosh… whoosh…
Asuma and Kurenai appear in the Hokage Office.
"You summoned us Hokage-sama!"
Both of them bow in front of Tsunade.
"Oh! It's you two!" She turns towards the anbu member and questions him.
"Where are Guy and Kakashi?"
"Erm… Hokage-sama, Team Kakashi is on a mission in the Land of Snow whereas Team Guy has yet to return from their escort mission to Sunagakure!" The Anbu reports to her.
"Damn! The situation is quite urgent!"
Tsunade turns to Shizune.
"Shizune! Join Asuma and Kurenai and fill them on the details."
"Yes, Tsunade-sama!" Shizune nods her head.
She turns towards Asuma and Kurenai.
"Alright!" Asuma and Kurenai follow her.
Tch…
"There are many wanted criminals and war prisoners locked in the Konoha Strict Correctional Facility. I am afraid these three won't be able to hold against so many prisoners."
Tsunade clicks her tongue as she ponders over the situation.
"Should I send Izuna to help them? If it's him, he can single-handedly resolve the situation. Minato and Kushina are out on another mission and Sakuma is holding the fort at borders."
She ponders for a while.
"Wait, a sec! There are still Shisui and Itachi! They can take care of the situation."
She turns towards the Anbu and orders him.
"Hurry and inform the vice-chief executive of the Konoha Police Force about the current situation. Also, inform Team Ro to act quickly!"
"Yes, Tsunade-sama!" The anbu flickers away.
Phew…
Tsunade heaves a sigh of relief.
"I still can't believe there can be a security breach in that prison. It's second most guarded prison after the Hozuki castle."
-----------------
In the Uchiha clan,
Haah…
"That was a busy day!"
Shisui massages his shoulders as he walks alongside Itachi.
"Sitting at the same place for eight hours has stiffened my muscles." He complains.
"Can't help it! With the reduced crime rate, the Konoha Police Force has nothing else to do!" He shakes his head.
He turns to Itachi and asks him.
"What about you Itachi? I am sure you have quite a busy life leading the Anbu team."
Sigh…
"Not really?" Itachi shakes his head in dismissal.
"Team Ro is one of the elite team of Konoha. So, it's only deployed during emergencies. Most of the time, its members are paired with other teams to aid them in missions."
"Well, it looks like both of us have quite some free time!"
Whoosh…
A masked anbu member arrives in front of them.
"It's an emergency! Hokage-sama has summoned you both!"
"An emergency Summon!" Shisui and Itachi's expression turns serious.
Whoosh…
They immediately flicker towards the Hokage Office.

Chapter 298: 290. Prison Break Part-2
Whoosh…
Shisui and Itachi arrive at the prison facility. They notice an unconscious chunnin lying at the entrance of the watch house.
"Wake him up!"
Itachi orders one of his anbu team members.
The anbu member summons a ball of water and wakes up the unconscious chunnin.
"The prisoners are escaping! I have to raise the bridge!" The chunnin anxiously stares at the prison castle.
Slap…
The Anbu slaps him to break him from his stupor.
"Report the situation!"
Itachi calmly asks him.
Ah!
The chunnin quickly summarizes the series of events.
"Hmm… Most of the criminals escaped from the prison." Shisui turns to Itachi.
"We can still catch them if we hurry! I will send a messenger eagle to summon more guards and surround the perimeter. In the meantime, let's recapture those criminals. They haven't goo far yet, we can still catch up!"
Shisui activates his Sharingan and scans the nearby area.
"I can't spot anyone hiding nearby! Let's move out!"
"Alright!"
Itachi nods his head.
He turns towards one of the members of his anbu team.
"Atsu! You are the only medic-nin on the team. Treat the injured personals of the prison."
"Yes, Captain!" Atsu nods his head.
Whoosh…
The group flickers away.
Fifteen minutes later,
Argh…
"Aniki, I can't hold any longer?"
The two legendary stupid brothers are hanging down at the end of the broken bridge. Hot lava is churning below their feet as bubbles of hot gas and lava splashes everywhere.
"Let's get going!"
The white-haired man scales the broken bridge like a ladder.
"Those other prisoners will serve as a distraction for the anbus and the Police Force while we make our escape."
Swoosh…
He launches a kunai tied to a rope towards the nearby cliff and uses it as an anchor to scale the lava pool beneath him. The Stupid brothers follow him.
-------------------
Yawn…
"I am so sleepy!"
Izuna and Mei walk out of their parents' house.
"One thing led to another! In the end, we could only eat dinner at Dad's house!"
Izuna shakes his head.
"And whose fault was that?" Mei rolls her eyes.
"No harm is done! I got to eat my mom's cooking!" Izuna waves his hands.
Whoosh… whoosh…
Multiple members of the Konoha Police Force dashes out in hurry. They have anxious expressions on their face as they rush out of the compound.
Hmm…
"What's going on? They seem to be in a hurry!" Izuna curiously stares at their back.
He recognizes a person in the group.
"Isao!" Izuna yells his name and stops him.
"Izuna!" Isao turns around and notices Izuna.
"What's the matter? Why the sudden rush?"
"Erm… Izuna-san, there is a security breach in the Konoha Strict Correctional Facility. Multiple prisoners have fled from the prison and the situation is quite chaotic there with multiple casualties!"
Isao informs him.
"I see!" Izuna nods in understanding.
"Then, I will be on my way!" Isao turns around and flickers away.
"Breach in Konoha Strict Correctional Facility?!" Mei turns to Izuna.
"Isn't that the most secure prison after Hozuki castle?"
"Yes!" Izuna nods as he explains.
"The Hozuki castle is located on a cliff surrounded by multiple whirlpools and there are multiple death traps around the castle. The isolated island acts as another natural barrier for the prison. Besides this, it also has a formidable warden keeping a watch on the criminals.
Similar to the Hozuki castle, the Konoha Prison is situated at the helm of an active volcano. During the reign of the First Hokage, Lord Hashirama used a powerful earth jutsu to raise a chunk of earth from the volcano to create an island surrounded by lava.
He then used his wood style to construct a Shiro on the triangular island. This prison held multiple vicious criminals of the warring era. With the passage of time and the reduced crime rate, the castle was renamed, and it now houses shinobis who have committed treason or other serious offenses. There is a long bascule bridge that connects the nearby watch house to the prison castle.
The criminals mine sulfur and various other ores under the strict management of the guards."
Izuna summarizes the details of the prison to Mei.
"It's almost impossible to escape from this prison unless someone has outside or inside help!"
Izuna shakes his head.
"Let's return home for now!"
He walks towards his house.
"Aren't you going to help?"
Mei asks him.
"There are multiple other shinobis in the village beside me. They can handle the situation. I won't butt in unless Tsunade asks me."
"Hmm… that makes sense!" Mei follows him.
Chii…
As if right on cue, a messenger eagle hovers in the air.
Chii…
It releases a shrill cry and lands on Izuna's shoulder.
"I jinxed it!" Izuna helplessly shakes his head.
He grabs the scroll from the eagle's leg and reads its content.
"It has been almost three hours since Shizune, Asuma, and Kurenai left for the prison. I haven't received any report from them. Shisui, Itachi, and Team Ro are chasing after the criminals who have fled the prison. I would like you to take a look at the situation!"
Izuna folds the scroll and pockets it.
"Looks like I have to make a move. Shizune, Asuma, and Kurenai are in danger!" He sighs helplessly.
"It's fine! You are going to sleep on the couch either way!"
Mei chuckles.
"…"
-------------
Whoosh…
Izuna reappears inside the prison facility. He teleports to his mark on Shizune's storage bracelet.
"This is…"
A frown appears on his face as he notices multiple injured guards lying around in the castle. Multiple anbu medic-nins are treating their injuries.
The Anbus are surprised to see his sudden arrival but calms down after confirming his identity.
"What's going on?" Izuna questions a nearby medic-nin. He recognizes the latter as a member of the Team Ro.
"Captain Izuna! Chief Shisui and Captain Itachi left with the other members of Team Ro to subdue the criminals who escaped from the prison.
Later, the reinforcement arrived and now we are treating the injured personals."
Hmm…
Izuna nods and turns towards a camp.
He enters the camp and notices Asuma, Kurenai, and Shizune's unconscious bodies.
"These three are the most severely injured out of all other jounins. I provided preliminary treatment to them so their external injuries are fine but they need immediate medical attention!"
Atsu reports their condition to him.
"It's fine, now!"
Izuna walks towards the trio.
'Mystic Palm Technique'
He infuses some Nature energy together with healing chakra to rapidly heal their injuries.
Ten seconds later,
Argh…
Shizune and the rest wake up while clutching their forehead.
'Amazing! Captain Izuna is still amazing as ever!'
Atsu nods his head in praise.
"Multiple A-rank criminals surrounded and ambushed us at the entrance of the castle. They were waiting for us!" Asuma has a wry smile.
"It's alright! Shisui and Itachi are already on their trail."
Izuna waves his hand.
"For now, let's focus on the injured personals."
"I am on it!"
Shizune nods her head and helps the rest of the medic-nins.
Izuna stares at the prison walls and ponders.
'I still refuse to believe anyone among these criminals can escape from the prison. I will look around.'
He walks deeper inside the prison while inspecting every nook and cranny with his Sharingan.
Five minutes later,
"Oh! Interesting!"
Inside one of the prison cells, he notices large amounts of dry blood and snakeskin.
He wipes the dry blood with his finger.
"Hmm… there are multiple drugs in this blood and it looks like as if someone forcefully injected Nature energy into an individual."
He picks up the snakeskin and inspects it.
"This chakra signature!"
A frown appears on his face.
"Damn! That old hag Snake Sage!"
He curses silently.
"I have to pay a visit to her after this fiasco. But at least I know about the culprit!"
Izuna returns to the stationed medical shinobis as he helps with the treatment.
An hour later,
Whoosh… whoosh…
Shisui, Itachi, and multiple members of the Anbu and Konoha Police force return with prisoners in tow.
"Make a tally of the prisoners and report to me!" Shisui instructs Isao and walks towards Izuna.
"How's the situation?" Izuna asks him.
"We captured most of them and killed the rest of them!"
"I see!" Izuna nods his head.
"Chief! There are three people still missing from the prison. The headcount doesn't match!" The Police Officer reports to him.
"The Legendary Stupid Brothers and former academy instructor Mizuki are still on loose."
"What?! The legendary Stupid Brothers! They escaped!"
The expression of one of the prison guards Jounin turns ugly.
Hmm…
"Round up the remaining people and throw the corpses of the dead in the lava!" Izuna orders them.
"Also, if any of these criminals don't behave, then just send them for a swim in lava." Izuna has a stern expression.
Gulp…
The prisoners gulp their saliva and voluntarily return to their cells.
"As for the situation of Mizuki and the Legendary Stupid Brothers. Leave it to Team three!"
Whoosh…
Izuna teleports away from the prison.
Yawn…
'I am so sleepy!'
