outside Gatou's mansion, there was a long line of tents, the tents were filled with the members of 'heavenly demon group'. they were waiting for the signal to attack and ravage the village.
"ha ha, it is been a while since I had sex but this wait is about to end, everyone tomorrow we will be in paradise" someone yelled with an evil grin on his face. hearing the shout. "yaaaay" others reacted with a unified cheer.
these type of talks were happening all over the settlement, as some of them were yelling at each other. others were sharpening their weapons by grinding them against stones. some were worried while others were carefree.
not far from them in the bushes there was a mouse who was listening to their shouts, hearing them a cold light flashed in his eyes, he ignored them for the time being, and move toward the main building, he went inside and move all the way to the basement, reaching there the mouse stopped in front of the room, where Daichi and his men were making their war strategy.
....
"so how are we going execute the assault" Masaru asked with a carefree expression, he was not even considering that they might loose, after all the only worthy opponent the enemies had was the Kakashi Hatake, the copy ninja of the village hidden in the leaves. who was only a mid-level shinobi. as for the others, he did not even consider them a threat.
"Masaru tell me how many manpower do you have," Daichi asked, he needed to know the no. of their forces in order to form a plan.
"well apart from me and Ryuu who are jounin-level shinobi, my 'heavenly demon group' has around 20 chunin-level missing-nin, around 100 genin-level nins and around 1000 ordinary mercenary" Masaru said with a slight proud in his voice, he was proud that he was able to make such a big power on his own, hearing this Daichi thought for a while and slowly a plan to birth in his mind. after thinking it through he said "okay, so it will go like this, Masaru you and me will deal with Kakashi Hatake, Ryuu you will deal with his three-man genin team, be careful they have an Uchiha in their team, who has suspected to awaken his sharingan, if possible try to capture him alive, I am sure Tsuchikage will be very glad after getting his hands on a doujutsu bloodline, and as for the other two, do whatever you want to do with them" after saying all this Daichi paused for a little so that they can absorb what he just said.
"all the chunins, genins and mercenaries will attack the village from all four directions so that no one will be able to escape," Daichi said this and others nodded. "since everything is planned you all should go and do the preparation for tomorrow's battle. after they left a vicious smile appear on Daichi's face and he muttered to himself "Takafumi, do not worry I will soon kill them, so that you can rest in peace".
after hearing all this, the mouse outside made a simple hand-sign and disappear into a puff of smoke.
........
Naruto who was meditating under a tree suddenly got the information from one of his clones regarding the war which will take place tomorrow, his eyes suddenly shot up and he disappeared from his place.
......
// Tazuna's house //
"everyone come here, i have got some intel regarding their attack" Naruto suddenly appeared inside the room when others have just finished their dinner, hearing him they nodded and move toward the living room, after they sat down Naruto continues "well, let's start with their manpower, currently they have 1 high jounin-level shinobi from the land of rock, a mid jounin level shinobi and a low-level jounin level shinobi, apart from the jounins they have around 20 chunins, 100 genins and around 1000 ordinary mercenary" hearing Naruto Kakashi was fine as he already knew about all this but others were shocked and their face went pale.
"Damn!" Zabuza muttered to himself.
"how are we gonna counter such a big-army and what is their attacking pattern" Sasuke ask while considering wether he will be able to kill them all.
"I have already got the plan ready, we will take advantage of their ignorance," Naruto said with a smile on his face. hearing this others look at him strangely and finally, Sakura asks "Naruto what do you mean by ignorance".
"ah! yes, i almost forget about this, they are currently unaware of our present fighting strength, they think that it was Kakashi sensei who wiped out the 'mountain wolf group', they also do not seem to notice that Zabuza a jounin level shinobi is in our band right now, so here is the deal, I will fight Daichi their leader, Kakashi sensei will take care of Masaru the leader of 'heavenly demon group and Zabuza-san will take care of Ryuu Masaru's younger brother" Naruto said after comparing their odds in battle then he continues "sasuke you and Haku will take care of those 20 chunin rank shinobi and Sakura you will fight with those 100 genins along with the reinforcement from Konoha"
"but what about those 1000 mercenaries," Sakura asked with a worried expression. "well, you do not need to worry about them I will take care of them tonight" Naruto replied with a dangerous expression on his face. hearing this the group was shocked. "but the battle is tomorrow why are we attacking tonight" Sakura asked.
"well, if you remember in the academy Iruka sensei ones told us that the best time to attack your enemies is when they are least expecting it, since they are going to attack tomorrow, they should be conserving their strength by resting, so it is the ideal time for us to attack" Naruto replied while killing intent broke out from his body. "and how are you going to do it" Kakashi asked.
"well, I have designed a detonation seal, which I will put on my clones so that they can detonate themselves when they will come near an enemy" Naruto replied. hearing this everyone's eyes became wide open. "but if you are going to detonate them, there will be loud explosions, which will inform the enemy of our attack, is that part of the plan as well" Zabuza asks with a frown on his face. hearing him a smile appear on Naruto's face and he nodded "this is a war, and we are not compiled to follow enemies flow of conduct, the only thing matters is who won in the end, so by those explosions I will force them to come out and that is when we will begin our final assault" hearing him everyone nodded, they knew that this plan was well thought, because after killing 1000 mercenaries the villagers will not be in any danger.
"sensei inform Akito to move the villagers to the safety bunkers so that they will not get caught in crossfire, right now it is around 8:00 pm, we will move after 5 hours" Naruto said this and everyone nodded. after all the talk was done Kakashi left to inform Akito and others also start doing their respective preparation.
.........
1:00 am
around 1 km away from the mercenary settlement, there was a figure standing there on the top of a tall tree, looking at the sleeping mercenaries with a hollow look on his face, while he was thinking he heard a voice in his head. "Naruto do you think you will be able to bear the guilt of killing around 1000 humans," Kurama asks with a slight concern in his voice, he knew that his host was not a cold person. hearing Kurama Naruto was in a daze for a while and then finally replied with a smile on his face "Kurama in this world there is no place for guilt and hesitation, you know what foxy, even though I am not in my Kyuubi form I can still feel the malevolent deeds done by them. murders, genocide, extortions, rapes they have committed too much crime, I know that I am no god and has no right to decide on who will live and who will die, but Kurama think will they change if I let them get away now, will they not commit anymore crime, at least I do not think so" hearing this Kurama was silent he knew that what Naruto was saying was true. he finally sighed and said " fine do what you think is right just do not kill yourself" hearing this a smile appear on Naruto's face.
but soon this smile disappeared and an emotionless expression appear on his face. he made a series of hand signs and executed his jutsu, with a massive release of chakra.
'MULTIPLE SHADOW CLONE JUTSU'
'POOF' 'POOF' 'POOF' 'POOF' .... 'POOF'.
white smoke completely covered that part of forest and when it disappeared there were around 1000 Naruto's shadow clone standing there with the same expression as the real one, after the clones were made Naruto mentally connected them and start giving orders, after a moment the clones start making some strange handseals which were different from the usual ones, they were fuinjutsu seals, they continued to make them after around 30 seconds their hands starts to glow with a dim green light, they slammed their hand on their chest and a strange encryption was printed on their chest, after the detonation seal was placed the clones transformed themselves into various types of small insects and start moving toward the settlement.
as the insects were marching toward the settlement, Sasuke, Sakura, Haku and others were looking at this with a pale expression on their faces, even Kakashi was a little intrigued. "damn! a whole army of Kamikaze clones, this is too vicious" Zabuza muttered to himself he was glad that he accepted Naruto's invitation and became one of his men, he could not even imagine what could have happened if he was his enemy, similar thoughts were going through others head.
...........
// in the basement //
just as Naruto made several hundred clones a huge chakra signature was transmitted out, Daichi suddenly opened his eyes and a serious expression appeared on his face, feeling the huge chakra signature a bad feeling appear in his heart, he hurriedly commands Gatou to call Masaru and his men. soon they appear in his compartment and just as he was about to ask them to investigate ...
'BOOOMMM' 'BOOOMM' 'BBBOOOMM' 'BOOMM' ... 'BOOMM'
'BBBBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM'
a series of explosions shook them to their cores, their expression paled, they could guess that someone has launched a large-scale attack. they look toward each other and hurriedly ran outside, Daichi was in the lead, Masaru and Ryuu were following him, and behind them were 20 chunin and 100 genins. leaping above the front gate they saw the view in front of their eyes, seeing this the legs of genins start to shake.
there was only one word which can explain the scene and that is 'CARNAGE', there were bloody bodies everywhere, body parts were still flying in the air, the whole campsite was burning and some of the mercenaries who were alive were consumed by fire. 'AAAHHH' 'HELP' they were crying for help but it was already too late, a moment later another series of explosion occurred and the remaining mercenaries were all killed in the most gruesome manner.
seeing this Daichi, Masaru and Ryuu's eyes changed and a horrendous killing intent broke out from their bodies. " aaahhhh who in the bloody hell did it" Masaru shouted, seeing that almost all his men died a vengeful expression appear on his face, he had worked hard in order to form this group, It took him 10 years to recruit these many men and now it was all gone in a minute. he was really angry. just as he was about to lash out he saw a barrage of kunai coming in his direction seeing this his expression did not change, he slightly shifted his body and dodged the kunai but just as the kunai passed from his side he saw paper bombs attached to them seeing this his expression changed and he hurriedly used 'BODY FLICKER' and disappeared from his place and just as he did 'BOOM' a series of blast occurred and because of the explosion their group was forced to scattered. just as the bombs detonated Daichi and Ryuu also used 'BODY FLICKER' and disappeared from their position.
currently, Daichi was standing on top of the mansion looking down with an extremely cold expression on his face, his whole body was emitting an intense killing intent, he did not think that enemies will attack them when they were not expecting it. he looks down and saw Masaru reappear not far away from the explosion site and just as he did he was attacked by a hidden leaf ninja whose face was half covered if he was not wrong this man was Kakashi Hatake the copy ninja of the village hidden in the leaves. then he saw Ryuu being attacked by a man who was holding a chakra sword in his hand. on the other hand the group of chunin were attacked by 2 brats and the group of genin were attacked by a four men team consisting of a pink haired girl and three men.
seeing the organised attack, his worst horror became real. "Damn! they knew about my plan" he was tensed and angry at the same time, he wanted to keep his identity secret but looking at the current situation that will not be a wise choice. he again looks at Masaru and Kakashi's fight and decided to intervene, just as he was about to move a figure suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his path, the figure was that of a twelve-year-old kid, seeing this a frown appear on his face. before he could ask anything the kid said in the coldest tone he has ever heard. "now-now do not disturb their fight they have worked hard in order to prepare for this battle". Daichi did not react to his words and ask. " who the fuck are you", naruto heard this and replied with a smile on his face, "your death".
hearing this Daichi's eyes became even colder and a chakra pulse was sent, the pulse passed through Naruto who did not even flinched.
