Chapter 4

(The day of the attack on Hoshiro, Hokage tower, Night)

"You are not getting it, Hiruzen, Tsunade is too soft on him, it's not like you don't know of his potential, he is on the road to be the next Hashirama, You are not pushing him enough, Give Senju Hoshiro to me, and I will make him a fearful Shinobi, think Hiruzen, this is a Great Opportunity for the better of the village", Said Danzo while sitting in Hokage's office.

"Enough Danzo, the accident is surely an Unfortunate event, but As I told you before, I can't give Senju Hoshiro to you, He is the Clan Heir, and Tsunade Senju is the current clan head and like all the clans, the law does not allow me to hand him over to anyone until unless the current clan head is willing, no matter the situation. And besides, He is a Senju, he is practically royalty, you want me to touch a prince."

"THEN WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO, WHEN IN A MONTH OR TWO ANOTHER IWA SHINOBI WILL TRY TO KILL HIM, HE IS LUCKY THIS TIME, DO YOU BELIEVE THAT HE WILL LUCKY LIKE THAT THE WHOLE TIME."

"I said no, Danzo, and that is final", Hokage said sternly

"Tch, then at least, Allow A root shinobi to with him the entire time", said Danzo not giving up

"Danzo, you are telling me, to break the clan's privacy laws that have been created since lord Hashirama's time and era. Do you wish to have a Root Shinobi with him the entire time? Then why don't you have one of your Root Shinobi to try to enter, the Senju clan compound, you do know, without a living Senju's permission, none can enter there, right?

"Tch...But-

"Enough Danzo, you are being dismissed"

"Tch, ", as Danzo made his way out.

A White Hair ANBU appeared in his office, in the darkness of the night, his white hair stand out the most

"how is the investigation going on? Don't tell me, Danzo is behind all this", ask Lord Hokage

"I don't think so, Hokage-sama, the entire section was being placed with an isolation seal, but the big question is how the hell did our sensors not sense him, entering the village", Kakashi Said

"I think, I may know the answer to that question, but first tell me something, did you find his body?", ask Lord Hokage

"I am afraid not", said Kakashi

"What about the proof of his identity, anything for us to relate him with anyone"

"I don't think so, but Young Senju alongside Lady Tsunade must have seen his face"

"Why do you think, they might have seen his face?"

"..."

"The guy is a Ninja, surely he knows the basic transformation Jutsu right?"

"But...But...", he tried to counter but nothing came out of his mouth

"What about the nurse that came to get Tsunade?", ask Hokage, almost for sure knowing who it is

"She was under the genjutsu the entire time, and thus remember nothing, even Yamanaka Inoichi-san, couldn't find a thing during the interrogation", said Kakashi

"But the key point of the whole point is, to keep Lady Tsunade away from him the entire time, so she created an emergency on her own by giving a wrong medicine"

Lord Hokage, Lean his head on his chair while laughing at the same time, "It's him"

"Who might it be lord Hokage?"

"It's the Iwa's ghost, Akira..."

"B-But, that's...Lord Hokage, I think you are mistaken, how could It be Akira, he is already dead"

"And how do you know it, Kakashi, the world never saw his body, and besides, if it's not Akira, how do you think anyone outside our village, managed to get passed our Sensors, place an Isolation seal near the Senju compound, Hypnotize the nurse, and nearly succeeded in his assassination attempt. If it wasn't for that pig, Ton-Ton, Young Hoshiro was good enough to be dead, besides it's his style of assassination", said Lord Hokage

"If that's the case, I volunteer to be next to Hoshiro's the entire time"

"That must never be done Kakashi, every clan has a secret, and even though they never saw it to anyone, Senju has their very own secrets to guard as well, not to mention no one can enter, Senju Compound, without the permission of a living Senju, I Will tell Tsunade to leave Hoshiro at home, whenever she had to leave him alone", said Lord Hokage

"What about when the enemy transforms into, Lady Tsunade, or Shizune, or that pig to lure him out"

"Tsunade told me, that Young Hoshiro is a Sensor like Lord Hashirama, though his range is pitifully low, if she could train him in his sensory, then it would be alright", started Hokage

"But the main problem is Akira, the Ghost of Stone, he is one of the best there is, General Aashai, and Tsuchi-kage sent their bloody best for this job" Finished Hokage

"Kakashi Here are your Hokage's Orders"

"YES LORD HOKAGE", Kakashi kneeled down

"A Ghost team, under the leadership of Ghost lead, will begin their counter-attack at Iwa, Create Chaos, use the darkness of the night, make sure, General Aashai get the message that either call Akira back to their village, or we have Ghosts with us as well, You will be the Second in command, Directly under the Ghost Lead."

"Spook Lord Tsuchi-kage, The Target is Onoki's grand-daughter "

"YES LORD HOKAGE"

"Also, have some people guard Hoshiro tonight, Tonight is gonna be a long night

-------

While, Lord Hokage, was having a chat with his ANBU, A shadow was standing on the tree branch in front of the hospital, while watching the sleeping Hoshiro, he smiled, this kid, he truly likes him, how the hell could someone not die, after getting so much bashing, he was sure that he broke every single bone in the kid's body, the vitality of Senju is truly astounding, a pity the kid has to die and that too by his hands

According to his data, Senju clan contains four members, in total, Tsunade, Shizune, Hoshiro, and that pig Ton-Ton

He glared at the pig, it's because of that pig that he failed the last assassination attempt.

Apparently, the last member of the family, Shizune, was taking over the shift of Tsunade, Cursing at his luck he prepared the invasion

The said Shadow is the famous S-Rank Assassin, Akira of the stone...

"Silent Arts: Silent Explosion", he quietly whispered before slamming his hand down.

And he disappeared...

An ANBU BLACK OP was standing on the hospital building when suddenly a Kunai struck his head, A Headshot...

"Ugh"

The two Remaining ANBU hiding under the leaves and the shades of the tree got their eyes wide open

Ram → Horse → Dragon

Doton: Dangan no Jutsu (Earth Style: Rock Bullet)

A small rock that came extremely fast, and created a hole in one of the ANBU'S Head, while, at the same time, the shadow came behind another ANBU quietly breaking his neck, neatly killing two targets at once.

Three targets down, without a single voice...

Choza in Hokage tower was trying extremely hard, to sense the ghost, when he suddenly found him

"Found him, outside the hospital"

Inoichi wasted no time as he made his clan sign...

"ALL UNITS BE ADVISED TARGET IS LAST LOCATED OUTSIDE THE HOSPITAL"

"This is unit 8, copy that"

"Unit 7, Copy"

"Unit 2, Got it"

"Unit 5 is advised

"GOOD LUCK MY FRIENDS...."

Soon four units of elite Shinobi's made their way towards Hospital

"ALL UNITS PLEASE BE ADVISED, THE TARGET IS GOOD AT HIDING CHAKRA AND IS VERY GOOD AT USING STEALTH, BE CAREFUL"

Copy

Copy

Copy

Copy

-------

The window suddenly got broken as the shadow came swinging down, as he throws a paralysis seal kunai at the just awaken pig.

While the kunai that is thrown at Tsunade is caught by her.

He grinned and rushed at Tsunade

"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU...", she asked as she punched him, which he ducked and dodge

He grinned as he threw an uppercut, "Last time I was caught un-prepared, because of that damn pig, this time you won't be able to hit me"

She gracefully leaned back dodging the attack, as she threw a punch at him he sidestepped to the side and hit her with a kunai in his hand

"GAK", she gritted her teeth but the punch changed its position without a single loss in the momentum

!!!

GAAA

He was hit in the end, on the hole in the wall was a person who suddenly disappeared with a poof!! of smoke

!!!

"SHIT, she turned her head, as she looked at the hospital bed, there was no one...

CRAP

She ran, and break the window, to jump down from the building....that was the third floor she Jumped from

"INOICHI", she mentally screamed

(At the Hokage Tower)

!!!

"ALL UNITS BE ADVISED SENJU HOSHIRO PLACE HAS BEEN CHANGED, TARGET IS HEADING NORTH, I REPEAT TARGET IS HEADING NORTH OF HOSPITAL"

"Lady Tsunade, the target is heading north"

"Got it"

"This is Unit 8 we will flank from the right"

"Unit 2 will head towards the north with Lady Tsunade"

"Unit 7 Will break in from the right"

"Unit 5 will come in from the front"

"COPY THAT", said Inoichi

The Shadow was running at its full speed towards the north, there was a grin on his face

--------

BOOOOMMMMM

"UNIT 5 DO YOU COPY? UNIT 5"

"ALL UNITS THERE IS AN EXPLOSION WE LOST UNIT 5, THERE MIGHT BE TRAPS ON YOUR WAY PLEASE BE ADVISED"

But alas his warning came too late...

BOOOMMMM

BOOOOOMMM

BOOOOOMMM

Three big blasts and all is lost...

"Dammitt, go and inform Lord Hokage, we have lost all four units, with the possibility of Lady Tsunade, ask for further orders", Order Inoichi to one of the ANBU Station there.

"I am fine", came the voice of Lady Tsunade

!!!!

"LADY TSUNADE ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?"

"Enough of that Inoichi, where is Hoshiro?"

"YES, HOSHIRO IS...HE IS HEADING YOUR WAY?"

"What? Inoichi if it's a joke I will literary punch you extremely hard"

Oink Oink

Tsunade watches in stunned expression as Ton-Ton brought Hoshiro on it's back as it was running towards her

-------

Ghost Akira placed sleeping Hoshiro, on the ground, he wished he could kill the boy right now, but knowing about the boy's vitality and the time it will take to kill him, he shook his head, he needs time to kill the boy.

The moment he moved the boy he knows sensors of Konoha will be after him

He left the boy at the same place and made 3 stone clones, as all 4 (3 clones 1 Original) spread out to place traps for the upcoming Konoha shinobi's

(After 10 minutes)

He came back to his original place only to find...Missing Hoshiro

!!!

He got afraid, the boy was clearly in semi-coma state, how the hell did this happened

He went back...only to find the pig carrying the young Senju to Tsunade

He clenched his fists, as he glared at the pig, Same Pig, it's the same Pig again, the pig is truly a ban of his existence, he never hated anyone as much as he hated the pink pig at this very moment

Next time he will just kill the pig first...

-------

At this time, An elite Squad from Konoha, the 4 member squad of Ghosts, under the leadership of Ghost lead is making their way towards Iwagakure, and the target is Innocent Grand-Daughter Of Onoki.

-------

(Inside Konoha)

"Lord Danzo please forgive me for asking"

"Yes?"

"Why are we not helping, there is chaos out there"

"We will use this chaos, Hiruzen, after this is over, won't be able to stop us from taking over, Hoshiro, we will then use his blood and genes, to create an army full of mukoton warriors", Danzo clenched his fists

"For the betterment of village, all sacrifices are right, Remember we live in the dark to serve the light, Without Roots the trees can never fully stand"

"Yes, Lord Danzo"
