Chapitre 88: Side Story# Hyuga Affair Part-2
Inside Anbu Headquarters…
Tap… tap… tap…
Izuna slowly taps his fingers on a table as he waits for his team members.
"Hmm… Captain is lost in some serious thoughts. He hasn't moved from that position for a while."
Yugao whispers to a nearby Anbu member.
"What do you think he is thinking about… Kakashi Senpai?" Yugao turns to Kakashi.
"Looks like we have received a new task from Hokage-sama. I heard about the peace treaty with Kumogakure. Maybe our mission is related to it." Kakashi calmly replies to her.
Izuna stands up from his seat and turns towards Anbu members.
'Why didn't I think of this before? I can simply use it to capture the criminal red-handed.'
"Yugao…"
Izuna turns towards Yugao and orders.
"Yugao, buy me a high-quality Video camera currently available in the market."
"Ehh…"
"What?..."
The sudden order startles everyone and one of the Anbu member's questions.
"I am sorry if it sounds rude Captain, but I want to know why you want to buy a video camera. I mean… I thought you called us for a mission!"
Hum… hum…
The rest of the team members nods their head.
"Oh! It's nothing. I just want a camera to record a movie. As for the mission, I indeed have a mission for you. I will explain once Yugao brings me the camera."
Izuna forks out a handful of Ryo notes from his pocket and hands them to Yugao.
"Yugao, go buy the camera."
Yugao takes the money and flickers out to buy the camera. Izuna sits again on the table and continues to tap his fingers.
'Why I never thought of this before? I can just record the entire incident on the camera as proof and present it during the meeting with Raikage.
If Kumogakure still doesn't oblige by the peace treaty, then all I have to do is just infiltrate their village and kidnap the Two-tails or Eight-Tails out from the village.'
Yo!... Yo!... Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh…..
The image of Killer B rapping appears in his mind.
"..."
'Nah! I think I will skip Eight-Tails. It is better to kidnap the Two-tails. I can't handle that guy's ear-rape all by myself.
But still why I didn't think of recording it earlier. The technology of Shinobi World is weird. There is a fcking Laptop in this world but apparently, they still haven't figured out the wireless communication over a long distance.'
"Captain… Captain…"
Izuna's train of thoughts is broken when Yugao appears before him. She is holding a camcorder in her hands.
"I have fulfilled the task you gave me." Yugao looks at Izuna with expectation.
'Sigh… This girl is quite eager to do every job. I just trained her for a few days in Anbu and now I have turned into her idol. Maybe it is not a bad thing.'
Izuna takes the camcorder and checks it's working.
'Hmm… it is similar to the camera I know. So, it won't be hard to operate it.'
Izuna turns towards his Anbu team and yells.
"All of you, 'Say cheese'!"
An awkward expression appears on their face as they weirdly look at their captain.
"What do we do?"
"I don't know."
'What is Captain's order?"
All of them start to murmur among themselves.
"Has Captain gone insane? His behavior is quite odd today." Someone silently remarks in the crowd.
"No, I think he is behaving normally. He always uses strange verbal tics in his speech." Another Anbu remarks.
"..."
A tick mark appears on Izuna's forehead as he stares at his Anbu team.
"All of you give a Goddamn pose for a photo. I want to test the new camera." He roars at them.
"Yes, Sir!" All of them line up and make funny faces while trying to smile.
One of them has a large scar down his cheek and he looks more intimidating while smiling with that huge body of his.
"Bunko! You look menacing with that smile of yours. You should better stop smiling." Izuna remarks at the huge guy.
"But Captain!... I was… I was born this way." The huge guy drops his head in depression.
Izuna makes a shadow clone and takes a photo with them.
'I will miss this band of scoundrels. I will apply for retirement after completing this mission. I want to explore the outside world freely and staying in Anbu will hinder me.'
The photo session causes a cheerful expression in the meeting room of Team Ro.
Cough… cough…
Izuna coughs loudly to draw their attention.
"Playtime is over. It's time to get serious."
The expression of all Anbu members changes as they adopt a serious expression.
After gathering everyone's attention, Izuna continues.
"I am sure most of you are aware of the recent peace treaty between Kumogakure and Konohagakure. An entourage of Kumo will arrive tomorrow to sign the peace treaty.
So, to make sure Kumogakure doesn't play any dirty tricks; Hokage-sama has ordered our team to ensure the safety of the village."
All of them nods their head. Izuna stops and looks at his Team members.
"Now, I will assign various tasks and make a strategy for efficiency."
Izuna assigns various tasks according to their abilities. Finally, he turns towards Yugao and Kakashi.
"Kakashi! I want you to monitor the residence of Kumogakure during this entire mission. If you receive my signal, then immediately capture all of them."
"Yes, Captain!" Kakashi nods his head.
"As for you, Yugao, how about going out to a birthday party with me?"
"Ehh…" Yugao freaks out at this sudden proposal.
'Is Captain asking me on a date? But… but… isn't it too early?'
Yugao starts to fantasize about various things in her mind. A blush appears on her face.
"What's up this girl?" Izuna cluelessly stares at her.
'I just invited her because nobody will suspect her as an Anbu. She doesn't have any particular achievement under her belt, and hardly anyone knows about her.
For me, I am part of the Uchiha clan and thus I received an invitation from one of the main family members I saved during the Third Shinobi War.'
He turns towards her and questions.
"Yugao, do you hear me?"
"Yes… yes, Captain."
"I have a hunch that the Kumogakure will join the birthday celebration of Hyuga princess.
So, both of us will disguise over self and join the birthday party. I have an invitation to the party. You can tag along." He explains to her.
"Yes… captain." Yugao nods her head with a blush.
'What should I wear for the party? I have to shop for some clothes for this occasion.'
Izuna ignores her and continues to assign guard duties to other team members.
'I have to choose the possible routes around the Hyuga clan and the Kumo ninja's residence for the guard duty. It would be easy to capture them once they move.'
---------------------
Next day,
The entourage of the Kumogakure arrived in Konoha. Hiruzen personally escorted them to the meeting room, and both sides signed the peace treaty.
Hiruzen shook hands with the Head Ninja of Kumogakure.
"Konoha wish for a long peaceful corporation."
"Kumogakure, too wish for a peaceful corporation."
Koharu, Homura, and Danzo nods their head and escort the Head Ninja.
The Head Ninja turns towards Hiruzen and requests.
"I heard the Hyuga clan is celebrating the third birthday of their Princess.
It would be an honor to partake in such an event, if possible. I think such an occasion will allow both villages to further improve their relationship down the road." The Head Ninja has a sly smile on his face when he proposes the suggestion.
'Raikage-sama is waiting at Land of Hot Water's borders, together with Anbu members. If I can successfully capture the Byakugan, then our Kumo will be able to research the secrets of this Kekkai Genkai.
Our Kumogakure suffered a huge loss in the Third war due to the Hyuga clan.'
"This…"
Hiruzen hesitates for a while before signaling a nearby Anbu member.
The Anbu members flicker towards the Hyuga clan.
"I would have to request permission from the Hyuga clan head for this matter. If he allows, then you can certainly participate in the meeting." Hiruzen tries to appease the 'Head Ninja'.
Sigh…
The Head Ninja sighs and turns around while replying.
"I thought that such an interaction will further strengthen our relationship. But I guess Konoha doesn't share the same sentiments. Anyway, my work is done here. So, I will return to Kumo."
"Wait… wait… Konoha is eager to strengthen our relationship."
"I will personally talk with the Hyuga clan head."
Hiruzen turns towards Homura and Koharu.
"Homura, Koharu! Please escort our guest around the various scenic spots of the village while I meet with the Hyuga clan head."
"Very well!" Both of them nod their head and escort the 'Head Ninja'.
An unnoticeable grin appears on Head Ninja's face.
"Where would you like to start, Respected guest?" Koharu questions him.
He quickly hides his grin and replies.
"Let's start with the place with most people."
"Oh! So our guest would like to visit a public bathhouse. I will escort you there." Homura leads the 'Head Ninja' towards the bathhouse.
"So, it looks like our respected guest is such kind of person." Homura has a knowing smile on his face.
"Ah.. yes… yes…" The Head Ninja scratches his head.
'Wtf? I just want to see their training ground. I think it is the busiest place, but a bathhouse. Well, never mind I deserve a break after breaking all that sweat in the meeting.'
---------------------
A/N:- The romance may seem forced in this chapter but I wrote it as a one-side crush on Yugao's part. I am no that adept at writing romance, so I am trying to learn it through side stories.
Regular chapter coming in few more hours.
