Capítulo 295: Chapter – 291 Assassination attempt on the Hokage
The loud sound of the signal flare immediately attracted the attention of the rest of the three consultant elders as well.
Mitokado Homura, Utatane Koharu, and Shimura Danzo all got up following Sarutobi Hiruzen and hurried to the window.
Looking at the eye-catching light of the signal flare, everyone's faces were tensed and gloomy.
As per the regulations of the village, if it is not a matter of immediate urgency, then firing signal flare in the village is not allowed, as doing so would arouse tensions and panic among the civilians, which would lead to chaos in the village.
And in such a case if a signal flare is fired, means that the matter is of utmost urgency.
At this time, an Anbu appeared in the Hokage office, and reported, "Hokage-sama, the signal flare outside is exclusive to team-11."
As soon as he heard this Sandaime's face was gloomier.
Even the other three elder consultants were shocked. As the members of the Elder Council, they are naturally aware of the secret mission that Anbu team-11 is responsible for.
Now that team-11 suddenly fired the emergency signal flare must mean that something has gone wrong with the Uzumaki Naruto, that is Kyuubi's Jinchuriki.
Danzo immediately said, "Hiruzen, it can only be the work of Amatsukami, let me deal with the situation!"
Sandaime groaned a little and then nodded, "Alright, make sure that Uzumaki Naruto remains safe!"
Kyuubi was at stake, Sandaime originally wanted to go in person but considering the anonymous letter about the Uchiha Clan's planned Coup d'état, Hiruzen must sit back in the village just in case this matter had something to do with the Uchiha Clan.
So Sandaime agreed and allowed Shimura Danzo to go after the Kyuubi.
With the approval of Hiruzen, Danzo immediately led a few members of the Anbu including the Root shinobi, and left in the direction from where the emergency signal flare was fired.
Standing by the window, looking at the ninjas rushing in the night, Sandaime sighed. He did not want the night of the Kyuubi's attack to repeat again.
With the departure of Shimura Danzo, only Sandaime and the other two consultants were left in the Hokage Office.
Utatane Koharu said, "Hiruzen, Kyuubi's Jinchuriki is attacked, we must issue emergency in the village, the attacking party could be anyone from the Uchiha Clan, or Amatsukami or probably even Akatsuki… but if it's the Uchiha Clan, then…
However, before Koharu had finished her words, a figure suddenly broke through the window of the Hokage Office and entered inside.
His speed was so fast that even before anyone could react to the sudden arrival of the intruder, he had already rushed towards Mitokado Koharu, his attempt was to pierce Mitokado Homura's throat, as a result, killing him in just one blow.
"You are…?" – The intruder's speed was too fast, and Mitokado had no time to fully counter the sudden attack, but he still managed to lean back a little as a result avoiding the Kunai piercing his throat, but it still pierced his shoulder spreading blood.
But now Mitokado was already prepared, and he instantly leaped backward. Held his left shoulder with his right hand to stop the blood flow.
He didn't really care much about his injuries, what he cared much about was the identity of the intruder. Even if the attacker is wearing a mask, Mitokado recognized those scarlet eyes with three black tomoe spinning within them.
And because he recognized those eyes which is Sharingan, so he understood the meaning of this attack and immediately warned Sandaime who was not far away and already preparing to kill the intruder, "Be careful Hiruzen, he has Sharingan!"
The attacker did not care about Mitokado's words, and he also did not stop his attack and again pounced on Mitokado.
Whiiish… Whiiish… Whiiish…
At this time, Sandaime had already thrown Shuriken hindering the intruder from attacking Mitokado.
Listening to the sound of incoming Shuriken, the intruder halted and immediately dodged the Shuriken.
With the gap created between the intruder and Mitokado, Mitokado flashed from his position and appeared on the other end of the Hokage office to block off the intruder's escape route.
While Utatane Koharu stood at the third end, effectively surrounding the intruder in a three-way siege, Sandaime looked at the intruder and asked coldly, "Who are you and what do you want to accomplish by attacking the members of Konoha Advisory Council?"
Utatane Koharu stated, "With that height and body shape, along with that incredibly fast speed and the pair of Sharingan… are you… are you Uchiha Shisui?"
Uchiha Clan indeed has many top-level shinobi even after losing four of their elites, but there are only a few handful Uchiha strong enough to be able to hurt Mitokado Homura, who is undoubtedly one of the strongest shinobi in Konoha.
It must not be forgotten that if not for his civilian status, Mitokado Homura might have also been a candidate for the position of Sandaime Hokage along with Sarutobi Hiruzen, and Shimura Danzo.
Trained by Nidaime Hokage, and having experienced the first, second, and third great war, Mitokado is obviously not some run of the mill shinobi, even if his strength is not at the level of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo, he is still a very powerful shinobi with his strength reaching close to the level of a Kage level.
And in Utatane Koharu's impression, this intruder with his speed and Sharingan was able to injure Mitokado, and based on his height and body shape, he has to be Uchiha Shisui.
Otherwise, which other Uchiha can match all the other characteristics.
And this also explains the sudden problem related to Kyuubi's Jinchuriki.
Sandaime had also guessed this possibility when he heard Mitokado mention that the intruder has a pair of Sharingan, he didn't really want to believe that Uchiha Shisui would betray the village.
But the opponent's speed is too fast, and only Shisui is that only Uchiha known to have such a speed.
The security of the Hokage Building was breached and the intruder managed to break into the Hokage office, so the alarm sounded in the Hokage Building, alerting the present Anbu guards.
Hokage Guards specifically responsible for the protection of Hokage immediately rushed into the Hokage Office, their intentions were to protect Sandaime-sama as well as the two advisor elders.
With the clear advantage of number and the fact that the intruder was surrounded, Sandaime said with a cold tone, "Take off that mask of yours and surrender, you have no chance of escaping!"
The attacker was silent for a while, he seemed to be analyzing the position of all the shinobi here and trying to find an escape route, everyone also understood what he intends to do. And just when everyone thought that he is planning to escape from here, the attacker, contrary to their expectations, leaped forward, exploding into his top speed, disappeared from his position, and rushed towards Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Looking at the incoming assailant, and the tree black tomoe spinning in his Sharingan wheel, Sandaime did not panic, and still had a calm and collected look, much to the displeasure of the assailant.
However, the speed displayed by the attacker this time was far more superior than previously, and before anyone could react to such ghostly speed, he had already passed through the Anbu teams and pierced through Sandaime's chest with a Kunai.
"""""""""Shit…! HOKAGE-SAMA!!!""""""""" – Everyone was taken aback.
And just when the attacker thought that he had succeeded in assassinating the Sandaime Hokage, the body of Sandaime suddenly turned into mud. The mud wrapped around the attacker's body, effectively trapping him.
And then one of the Anbu members on the other end of the room transformed back into Sandaime, and said coldly, "Since you don't want to surrender willingly, then don't blame this old man for what's about to come!"
Seeing that Sandaime was completely fine, and in fact, even reversed the situation, everyone was relieved.
