Chapter 43: Broad Plan- A scheme in making
Ken walked purposefully through the bustling village, his thoughts focused on the task ahead. He had a plan in mind, and he needed to gather the right people to execute it successfully. His first stop was to meet his sensei, Tokutchi, who was renowned for his expertise in explosive techniques. As the head of the explosive team, Tokutchi was the perfect person to assist him.
Entering the explosive team's headquarters, Ken found Tokutchi engrossed in his work. "Sensei," Ken began, "I have a request. I need to borrow ten skilled individuals from your team."
Tokutchi looked up, his eyebrows raised in curiosity. "Ten? That's quite a number. What do you need them for?"
Ken explained his plan, detailing the mission ahead. "I need experts in explosive release to carry out a specific task. These ten individuals will be crucial for the success of the mission."
Tokutchi considered Ken's words for a moment before nodding. "Very well. I trust your judgment, Ken. I'll gather the best from my team and have them ready."
With a sense of accomplishment, Ken left the explosive team's headquarters and headed towards the special task force office. He needed to consult with his former head, Han, who had extensive knowledge about the special jonins in other ninja villages. Ken knew that gathering the right information was essential for the success of his mission.
As he entered the special task force office, Ken spotted Han going over a stack of reports. "Han," Ken greeted respectfully, "I need your expertise. I'm compiling a list of special jonins from other villages. I need to know their strengths, weaknesses, and any other relevant information."
Han looked up, his expression serious. "Ken, you always manage to find the most interesting tasks. I'll assist you, but keep in mind that this information won't come easily."
Ken nodded, fully aware of the challenges that lay ahead. After a lengthy discussion, Han provided him with a detailed dossier on the special jonins from various villages. Armed with this information, Ken was ready to proceed to the next phase of his plan.
In the following days, Ken assembled a team of individuals with diverse skills. The ten explosive release shinobi from Tokutchi's team joined forces with sensor ninjas and assassination experts from the ghost team. It was a formidable group, capable of carrying out the mission with precision.
Gathering his team in a secluded room, Ken explained the mission's objectives. "We have a list of targets," he said, his voice steady and determined. "Our goal is to retrieve those on the list and eliminate those who pose a threat."
The room fell silent as Ken's words hung in the air. Zen, the head of operations for the mission, looked at Ken with a mixture of surprise and confusion. As a new elder, Ken's authority was still settling in, and his orders were unexpected.
"Ken sama," Zen finally spoke up, "this is an unusual task. Kidnapping and killing… it's not our usual approach."
Ken met Zen's gaze with unwavering determination. "I understand this is different, Zen. But the ninja you will be kidnapping will help for future development of the village."
Zen hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Very well, Ken-sama. I'll coordinate the operation based on your instructions."
