18 Chapter 18.
As they Entered the I did a check on my surroundings when I saw another person wearing Anbu uniform on the opposite side of where I am.
Seeing him I quickly used a Jutsu from a set of counter-reconnaissance Jutsu's I developed to avoid surveillance and to bypass the security.
This Jutsu is called false-death where all my presence disappears as no one will be able to track me as long I don't jump in front of them. At first it was designed to escape the eyes of Sharingan as I trained with 3 sharingan user making this a necessity which I silently started to perfect this technique and Now I can bypass all the Sensor techniques in the world atleast this is what I think.
Entering this state I took a close look at while using Eye-enhancement Jutsu another one from the set. For this I had to put aside 30 minutes daily for the last 4 years as I used Chakra to open the tenketsu and meridian of my eyes I had to make my chakra mild at the same time control this chakra from rampaging, This is also the reason why this technique took so much time, and this jutsu is still improving.
As I used this Jutsu my pupils turned blue as I saw him wearing Anbu uniform with a weasel mask on his face while red-light kept flashing in his eyes. Combining all these information I knew he is Itachi. Thinking about it he is also responsible for gathering Information about this Coup but I think his task should be assigned by Danzo, this evil guy asking a family member to keep an spy on his own family; you just wait for me to have sufficient I will let you see what is good. This might truly be the case or Hokage-sama wouldn't have assigned me this task. Even in canon Hokage-sama believed in Shisui and Itachi that they won't betray, Let alone now in reality were I have seen how much Hokage-sama trusts them.
As I was thinking about this everyone has taken their respective places with Patriarch at the front while Great Elder sat on his right side and Second elder on his left. Everyone else sat opposite to them, waiting for Patriarch's order of starting the meeting while they communicated between themselves.
Patriarch raised his hand and said.
" Great elder you can start todays meeting."
By this time I have also used another jutsu which enhances my Hearing strength as I can listen to everything within the range of 100 meters. This jutsu is similar to eye jutsu where you use chakra to strengthen you ear meridians so that when the time comes for you to use the ninjutsu your ears won't get hurt. This jutsu has a very fatal drawback that is you have to let your brain go numb since all the hearing will make you or send your brain in overdrive and you in coma. For this jutsu I used A.I to distinguish the sound at a very fast speed but still it takes time to sort all the information until then you have to stand still and be in a half coma-state. It's purely for eavesdropping not a sensor ninjutsu to sense others.
Inside. Just as the great elder finished speaking someone couldn't stop himself and stood up and excitedly said.
" Patriarch the village is too bullying today I was just patrolling the borders when I saw a couple of ninjas in Anbu clothes standing outside and taking a peek at us."
Another continued. " Yes yes Patriarch for a few months I always had a feeling someone is spying on us. Now I know these guys are Anbu. How dare they."
A new guy followed by saying.
" How dare these guys spy on us. Don't they know who created this village. We're the first noble clan in this world. Only Senju clan can talk to us on equal footing."
Continuing another guy said. " Patriarch you should be the Hokage. How dare this guy from small clan like Sarutobi become a Hokage. You are the most noble and suitable for this position."
And they continued this clattering for 10 minutes when one of then spoke.
" Patriarch we should usurp Sarutobi from his seat. You should be the one to sit."
Hearing this everyone nodded as Great elder continued.
" Yes what he says is right without Senju only clan is qualified to sit on the position of Hokage. How dare this small clan member take our rightful position We should fight for it." Everyone supported his words as they continued to chatter while Patriarch just sat there with an indifferent expression on his face.
A few minutes later Patriarch raised his hand and said.
" For Anbu outside I'll take care of it. For other things you guys should keep quiet. I will see what I can do. Now todays meeting ends here." Without waiting for anyone's reply he got up and left. Behind everyone formed their and excitedly discussed about the Coup and Becoming Hegemons etc.
Outside I processed all these information and sorted myself and turned to look at where Itachi had been now there is no one he has already gone. So I continued to monitor the surrounding last time and rushed before the High-level ninjas inside the temple come out.
Rushing out of the Uchiha clan lands I continued to move until I reached Team Ro's training room where only Shisui stood. First I tried to catch my breath after which I headed towards him and passed todays information. Although this is wrong but as a friend this little help is something I can do.
As he heard all the information his face become gloomy and eyes became dark not knowing what he was thinking. I waited until he digested all the information and looked at him.
He turned to look at me and said with a grateful look on his face.
" Thanks for the information. Although I knew that there was a problem in the clan and the rumors but I didn't expect even Great elder to support this cause."
I nodded at him and moved close to his ear. At first he was taken aback but still stood their waiting to see what I'm doing.
Close to his ears I whispered.
" Don't trust Danzo." Hearing this his body slightly shook as he turned towards me with an incredulous look, As I just patted his soldiers and passed by. While I secretly performed shadow clone jutsu to keep an eye on him. When an emergency occurs I can still help him. For all the help in the last couple of years this is something I must do.
Seeing my fading back he slightly nodded and the shaking his head he sighed and whispered to himself.
" If it were before I could still withdraw but now with the information you gave me. There is no way but to place my trust on him and village elders. But don't worry I'm not easy to deal with. But if necessary I won't mind sacrificing myself." At this point his face became more resolute as he thought
' No matter what I will stop this matter from taking place.'
I Continued to move until I reached the Hokage building. Taking a deep breath I jumped and entered his office from the open window.
He looked at me while I stood there waiting for his orders as I had already placed the scroll containing todays information on his table.
He didn't say anything to me as he continued to look into the information. And as he continued to read his became more and more gloomy. After finishing his breathing became while chest were full of ups and downs and he unconsciously his Kage level aura. Just standing there beside him felt like waves assaulting me, which made me unable to breath as my back started to ooze sweat.
After couple of seconds he retracted his aura while my back was full of sweat and face full of nervousness. He still didn't look at me as he sat back and pumped a few puff's of his smoke. After a few minutes he seemed to have calmed down. He looked at me still with his gloomy face and asked in a deep voice.
" What do you think we should do with the Uchiha clan."
I knew that this my chance to perform so I first saluted him and replied.
" I think we can have a little meeting with the Uchiha patriarch. The thought of coup are all from some nasty guys. What we need to know is the thoughts of Uchiha patriarch. If his thoughts are similar to us then we can co-operate and think of different measures to control those repulsive guys. If he is the same as them we can directly go for the kill." At the end I leaked quite a bit of my murderous aura.
" Cough"
Hearing this sound I quickly came back to my senses as I retracted my murderous aura and waited for Hokage-sama order.
