Chapter 10

" Konoha can't be this foolish right? " asked a man who looked like he didn't want to be here. This man is Akira Kurokage. He is the clan leader of the Kurokage clan and also holds the position of captain commander. His duty is to rate the missions that would be given to the Yokai unit. And like the Nara clan , the Kurokage clan are born strategists. So he could easily guess what Konoha wanted to do with their Jinchūriki . 

" Yes, they want to isolate him. Although this might have high risks, the rewards are equally high for them not to try this option, " said another man who was drinking his wine without any care. His name is Sachiko Takahashi, the master strategist of the village. Although he looks lazy, that couldn't be farther from the truth. In fact he is someone who could be considered a master at strategists. So his brain always tends to strategize even the little details. So he is usually busy with his time drinking to not over exhaust his brain. 

" Damn those Konoha elders " shouted Kazuma as he gritted his teeth in anger. As someone who was from the clan that was once betrayed by their closest allies he naturally doesn't have any good opinion of the higher ups of konoha. And in the report he clearly saw that Hokage made every family who wanted to adopt Naruto back down. His reason: ' Because Naruto's background would be known and his life would be in danger'. What a load of bulshit. Did he think the other hidden villages have that much time and resources to go on a hunt for one child?. Even if they somehow wasted many resources to find him, how long would they continue their search? 

Kazuma began to curse the third Hokage and his advisers repeatedly for the next 20 minutes. Others who saw his expression didn't disturb. The Uzumaki are well known for their lack of awareness. So when they get angry they don't beat around the bush and directly speak about it to their face. The others ignored him for now and continued their discussion with Izanami.

"Matriarch, what do you propose we should do about this? From what we gathered so far the other villages may use this chance to attack Konoha again. If we tread carefully we may be able to rescue Kazuma's nephew. "Said Sachiko with a serious look. Since he is called a master strategist, when Izanami wanted to do something he would naturally come up with a strategy to help her cause. 

Izanami looked at everyone again and sighed. He gave them a helpless smile and said, "As much as I want to bring Kazuma's nephew here I currently have my hands tied on this. You should read this too get the bigger picture Sachiko " 

Sachiko raised his eyebrows at Izanami's wording. You should know that he already read the full report before he spoke. So what made her hesitate. After Vali presented everyone with another document he froze. He simply couldn't believe what he was reading. 

" um matriarch forgive me for asking but is this document real? You aren't pranking us or anything right. " He asked in doubt. For the first time in his thirty whole years he began to doubt his eyes when saw this report. 

" No, that one is real. That report is a copy of Danzo's orders to his roots. And just so you know we got this report from the Chiba clan. " Izanami said, making Sachiko shut up. He knew that Chiba with their unique secret techniques could shrink themselves to a level where an ordinary ninja couldn't locate them. They were excellent at infiltration missions as even elite jonins have a hard time locating them due their uniqueness. You wouldn't be able to locate an ant when you are surrounded by elephants after all. Although they were dangerous their clan was on the brink of extinction in the warring state. In the warring state there were no sneak attacks, just destroy everything with a big jutsu. So their normal casualty rate is higher than other clans leading them to a rather dire state. Thankfully they managed to survive after Izanami took them in. 

" But I still have a hard time believing this. We are talking about Danzo right. He can't be this stupid to act like this. If there is one mishap everything would fall apart. " Sachiko mumbled under his breath but due to everyone's keen hearing they all heard it. 

Frankly speaking they couldn't believe this report either. Isolating a Jinchūriki is nothing new, as most villages use this method to install loyalty or protect them from unnecessary harm. But what Danzo is about to do is utter madness. He isn't just playing fire, he is pouring gasoline on it. 

" spread the rumors of a Demon fox that was reincarnated as a child residing in one of the orphanages, make the orphanage director create a scene where their secret conversation would be heard by an adult , frame the Uchiha by spreading rumors on how they didn't come to help the village. 

Truly Danzo really is the darkness of Konoha. Not only did he want to rampaging Kyuubi Jinchūriki , he also wanted to kill off one of their founding clans . "said Haruko with a sigh. 

" Well Konoha might cease to exist after a few months. After all there is no way that old man could fend off the nine tails like Minato did. Should we just go and start recruiting the innocent clans and civilians matriarch ? It is the only thing we could do if the third hokage didn't stop babysitting his old friend, " said Akira. He was just waiting for the matriarch's orders to publish a series of missions they would need to do. 

Like that, various other clan heads and department heads began to throw out some of their own proposals and reasons for it making the meeting quite rowdy. Even Kazuma who had woken up from his stream of curses also said his own proposals in this matter. Well most of his proposals were to plant a bomb in the root headquarters and the hokage towers. 

Nanami who was silent till now finally spoke to make everyone silent , " enough behave yourselves you in front of the matriarch " 

Everyone reflexively straightened their backs when they heard her words. Although no one would say to her face they have a deep fear for Nanami. It isn't because she was ugly or because of her position. No it is because this girl is a fanatic. Although mellowed down after working as the Yokai unit's leader in her early days she would kidnap everyone who didn't behave correctly and thoroughly educate them. As the oldest Rushifā apart from Izanami her combat experience couldn't be taken lightly. 

Yes, don't be mistaken by her young appearance. Like Izanami she too achieved a level of power where she could be able to retain her youth. So the clan heads who are mostly born from Japan knew about her. They still remembered the times where she was in charge of teaching a class for a week due to an incident. Considently most present clan heads were a part of that class. Due to their upbringing and childish nature most of them were arrogant and had delinquent attitudes. And in that span of a week she managed to thoroughly discipline them that even Izanami was impressed. 

So even now when Nanami speaks no one wishes to interrupt. No, it's safe to say that they don't dare to interrupt her. Their titles or positions wouldn't save them from her wrath if she was displeased. And they knew perfectly well that their matriarch wouldn't help them too much if Nanami decided to go on a rampage on them. She is her adopted daughter after all. And Izanami dotes on her family more than she realises. 

This is why the Rushifā clan, even though it has no blood relation to Izanami, is quite terrifying. Unlike the other clans that carried the bloodline of their progenitor the Rushifā clan doesn't have that. Their members now are family members of the people who Izanami adopted. Due to not having a specific template for them to train they all tend to go after different fields. The only common thing amongst them is that they all have a good mastery over weapons and have some almost perfect chakra control. 

The one that managed to achieve the perfect chakra control state will be able to manifest their domains. And achieving that is said to be called the pinnacle of what a normal human could achieve. 

Nanami and Izanami who went further from this state could be considered gods or people at the level at the six paths. They broke through the barrier that made them human. How that was possible will be told another day.
