Chapter 61 - Suna's Plan

At Konoha.

Fugaku was at Hokage's office.

"I am a bit worried about Itachi, I know he is under Yama's supervision but Yama is a reckless kid, and Itachi and the others who are under him are not freaks of nature like him. I have a weird feeling itachi is in some kind of danger."

"Don't worry too much, Yama is one of the smartest people I have ever met, he understands the difference between him and the others, your son will be completely fine.

"The only way your son might be in danger is if all the Yagure members are very far away from each other and can't reach the other in time to help them.

"Yama gets attacked by 2 or more Kage level shinobi and at the same time your son also gets attacked by a strong shinobi which is unlikely, to say the least." Said Minato

"Sigh, as a father I can't help but worry."

"Speaking of that I heard Mikoto San is pregnant and you are expecting a second child pretty soon."

Fugaku nodded his head. "Yes, she will probably give birth in about a month. I heard you are also about to be a father are you nervous?"

Minato smiled. "I am a lot actually. I don't know if I will be a good father, I already have the responsibility of the whole village and that takes a lot of my time I don't know if I will be able to give him enough time."

"So you are already assuming the gender?" Fugaku asked.

"I just have a feeling it's going to be a he."

Fugaku laughed. "Don't be too worried, you will be a good dad."

"I hope so, he is not even born and I am already in love with him."

"I felt the same way when I first became the father."

At Sunagakure.

The suna council meeting was going on. Rasa, Ebizo, Baki, Chiyo as well as a lot of other members of the council were present in the meeting.

"Ok, with that I believe the meeting is over unless someone wants to add something or talk about another topic." said Rasa.

One of the council members raised his hand.

"Yes, Sajo what is it?"

"I want to talk about Pakura, although the plan you just made will help us solve most of our financial problems we still won't be able to match most of the other countries when it comes to resources.

"Since she has now joined Konoha how about we name her as a missing-nin and demand her head from Konoha. Since Konoha currently lacks high-level shinobis they will try and protect Pakura and because they are currently weak they won't start a war with us instead they will compensate us."

Goza nodded his head. "I agree, since both Orochimaru and Danzo have left the village they are in no position to start a war with us. And because Pakura was a shinobi from our village we have every right to demand her head from them."

The Suna council started discussing what to do about Pakura and whether to go forward with the plan suggested by Sajo.

"Since the majority of us have agreed with Sajo's opinion we will go forward according to his plan, and Sajo since you are the one who suggested the whole thing you will be the leader of this operation." Rasa announced.

After that, their meeting came to an end.

At the border of the land of the grass and the land of Rain:-

Another big fireball came towards the guy from his side. He jumped back a little and easily dodged the fireball. Itachi immediately rushed to shisui's side.

He carried shisui and created some distance between them and the guy. Shisui's genjutsu didn't work on the guy nor was his speed able to catch the guy by surprise. Right now Shisui was hurt, he could barely stand up after the guy slammed his head into the ground.

Itachi's trump card the exploding shadow clone which he developed with the help of Yama also didn't work it was only able to damage the guy's cloak. His fireball jutsu wasn't fast enough, shuriken and kunai couldn't do much damage.

Itachi couldn't think of a way to survive. His heart was beating uncontrollably fast, he kept trying to figure out a way to live but he couldn't. The green-haired guy was slowly moving towards him with a ferrous smile on his face.

In the next second, the guy flickered right next to Itachi and kicked him on the guts. Itachi was barely able to follow his movement so dodging or blocking the attack was out of the question.

Itachi flew away from his position and he crashed into the tree. Itachi started puking blood. Itachi's vision was getting a little blurry. He looked forward and saw the almost unconscious shisui move towards the guy and slowly attack him with his kunai.

The attack was so slow and weak the guy didn't even bother dodging the attack. The kunai touched his skin but it didn't have enough force to even draw a little bit of blood.

The guy grabbed Shisui from his neck and raised him above the ground, Shisui tried to struggle but it was of no use. Then he slowly took the Kunai from Shisui's arm looked at Itachi and showed him a big grin.

Itachi knew what the guy was about to do but he had no power to stop it. Tears started flowing out of his eyes.

"Nooo, please stop."

The guy didn't listen to him he slammed the kunai into Shisui's heart. Shisui puked a little bit of blood and in the next second his body went limp.

"Noooo!" Itachi screamed at the top of his lungs with blood flowing out of his red eyes.
