Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 528 The Night of the Nine-Tailed Fox (Part 1)

The sudden kunai "ambush" made Fugaku Uchiha's hair stand on end.

However, he was, after all, the head of a clan and a powerful elite ninja.

Fugaku Uchiha immediately channeled his chakra into his feet, unleashing it instantly, and leaped out of the room through the window.

However, in the silent night, he did not see anyone.

next moment.

"Swish swish swish swish~"

Several figures quickly surrounded them.

"Chieftain!"

"Chieftain!"

Several Uchiha clansmen on night patrol had obviously heard the commotion and rushed over immediately.

However, when faced with the concerned inquiries from his clansmen, Fugaku Uchiha simply shook his head slowly and gave the order somewhat absentmindedly.

"It seems someone infiltrated just now. Search the area."

The tribesmen who had just gathered from all directions looked at each other in bewilderment upon hearing this, but they still obeyed orders and dispersed again to search for the infiltrator their chief had mentioned.

However, after seeing these clansmen disperse, Fugaku Uchiha, who had given the order, had little hope that they would be able to find any clues.

In that situation, he activated the legendary Mangekyou Sharingan of the Uchiha clan and immediately chased after the kunai from the direction it came from.

Even so, they didn't see even a trace of the person who came.

not to mention.

Back inside the house, Fugaku Uchiha's gaze fell on the kunai nailed to his desk.

He reached out and picked up the small scroll tied to the end of the kunai.

Yes, under the dynamic vision of the Mangekyou Sharingan, Fugaku Uchiha noticed the scroll on the kunai the moment it broke open.

This is why he only referred to them as "insiders" rather than "attackers," and why he didn't place much importance on finding them.

"What kind of information are they here to deliver?"

With some doubt, Fugaku Uchiha slowly unrolled the scroll and began to read it carefully.

But the next moment, his pupils trembled violently.

"tonight?!"

However, before the utterly shocked Fugaku Uchiha could carefully reread the scroll to confirm that what his eyes were seeing was not wrong,

Suddenly, a flame rose from the small scroll in his hand.

The reel immediately burst into flames.

Ignoring the scorching heat of the flames, Fugaku Uchiha reached out to quickly extinguish them.

However, it was too late.

In the blink of an eye, the intelligence scroll in front of me had burned to ashes.

"this!"

Watching the scroll drift away in the wind and disappear without a trace, Fugaku Uchiha never expected that the person who sent him the information had such a trick up their sleeve.

However, he was well aware that now was not the time to dwell on this.

Regardless of whether the other party's intelligence is true or false, the Uchiha clan must prepare a response in advance.

Without further hesitation, Fugaku Uchiha leaped out of the room again and shouted loudly.

"Someone come here!"

"Swish swish swish swish~"

The Uchiha clan members who had been inexplicably searching the area immediately teleported back to Fugaku Uchiha's side upon hearing their clan leader's call.

"Summon the elders... no! Summon all ninjas of Chunin rank and above from the clan to the council hall!"

Although Fugaku Uchiha's orders tonight left the Uchiha clan members somewhat bewildered, they still immediately began to disperse and gather other clan members out of respect for the clan leader's authority.

But what Fugaku Uchiha didn't know was that outside the Uchiha clan's territory, a strange white figure quietly emerged from underground.

A dozen or so Uchiha clan ninjas quickly surrounded them.

"Captain! Fugaku Uchiha has ordered a gathering of all Uchiha ninja of Chunin rank and above. Should we go?"

A sinister-looking Uchiha clan ninja saw the white figure appear and quickly stepped forward to ask.

At the same time, this person was also carrying another unconscious Uchiha clan ninja and handing him to the white figure.

The white-clad figure took the unconscious Uchiha and spoke quickly.

"Ignore it. You all disperse and wait for the signal. I'll notify Master Guang!"

As he spoke, the white-clad figure placed his hand on the head of the unconscious Uchiha in front of him.

next moment.

The originally pale and eerie white humanoid monster began to change color in the blink of an eye, and in no time it became exactly like the unconscious Uchiha clansman.

With a backhand motion, he slit the throat of the unconscious Uchiha Ichikuni in front of him, and the new 'Uchiha' continued talking.

"During the operation, try to avoid touching the ground and plants. If you don't notice the White Zetsu that appear tonight, you don't need to pay attention to them. But if you encounter a White Zetsu that doesn't match the code, kill it without hesitation."

"During the operation, only show your face, do not engage the Konoha ninja directly. Work in groups of three. If a teammate dies, immediately take the body and retreat without leaving any trace. Understand?!"

"Yes!" xN

"action!"

At the command of the 'Uchiha' who was called the captain, the rest of the 'Uchiha' immediately and quickly left the open space in a flash.

The captain was left alone. After completely destroying the corpse in front of him, he reached out and pressed his hand against a large tree next to the open space.

"Lord Guang, we are all ready."

On the other side, near a very secluded stone house outside Konoha Village.

Just like how Wuyin sealed the Three-Tails inside Qing's body before.

A monster of the Tailed Beast level going berserk would pose a tremendous threat to the village.

So even though it was just Kushina Uzumaki, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, giving birth in Konoha, and the village had made all the necessary preparations.

However, to avoid any mishaps, Kushina's delivery location was still chosen outside Konoha Village.

However, to ensure the safety of the Jinchuriki, a dozen of the most elite ANBU ninjas were still stationed near this secluded stone house to guard it.

Meanwhile, a small protective barrier was also set up on the outside.

To maintain secrecy, even the doctors who delivered the babies were the wife of the former Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Biwako Sarutobi, and a medical ninja directly under the Anbu.

As for Minato Namikaze, the Hokage and husband of Kushina Uzumaki, he needed to go to the Land of Hot Springs to negotiate a ceasefire with the Hidden Cloud Village.

The final sealing and last line of defense after production were personally overseen by Jiraiya, one of the legendary Sannin.

However, even with such a level of tight security, it still cannot stop those with ulterior motives from spying.

In the corner of the barrier.

Uchiha Hikaru's face was partially visible outside a mound of earth, his eyes fixed on the stone house in front of him.

None of the highly vigilant Konoha elite ANBU ninjas around her noticed her presence.

At that moment, a signal from "plant communication" came from underground.

Uchiha Hikaru listened to the woman's painful screams coming from inside the stone house, but his expression did not change at all.

"They're all ready over there, but Obito, whom Tachibana mentioned, hasn't shown up yet. Should I make my move?"
