Chapter 692: Uninvited Guest!

Chapter 692: Uninvited Guest!

In Kumogakure, two Jounins rushed into the Raikage's office at their full speed and saw Mabui and Elder Inazuma. Seeing the panic on their faces, both Mabui and Inazuma became serious and asked, "What's the matter?"

One of the Jounins answered, "Some of my subordinates spotted a civilian walking towards here. However, when they tried to stop him, he disappeared. I'm afraid that one of the spies has decided to take action."

Inazuma frowned and questioned, "Which stupid spy would act when we are so alert? It must be something else. Did your subordinates see where he went?"

The Jounin shook his head and answered, "No. They said that it was almost as if he disappeared in thin air. Either it was some kind of Genjutsu or his speed is very ridiculous."

Mabui and Inazuma became serious. Mabui muttered, "If it's the former, then it shouldn't be an issue. However, if it is the latter, then things can get troublesome. Someone who can move at that speed should at least be an Elite Jounin." U//ppTodated fr/o/m nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)\/m

Inazuma nodded agreeing with her. While they discussed the intruder, a pair of eyes opened up in a room just under the Raikage's building. The pair of eyes belonged to an old man in his early sixties. Surprise could be seen in his eyes as he wondered, 'Someone infiltrated this building? Who's so courageous? And how did he or she do it?'

Even though the old man wasn't a Grandmaster, he was a Sealmaster who wasn't too far away from the Grandmaster rank. He was currently on duty to monitor the seals on the Raikage's building. As soon as Fujin entered the building, it was picked up by the seals in the building and hence alerted him.

He was about to take action and inform Mabui when the surprise in his eyes suddenly changed into horror. He muttered, "What in the world? How can this happen? No, this is impossible! What is happening? Who is it?"

He got up in panic as he sensed thousands of foreign seals appearing inside the building. As more and more seals appeared, he began losing control over the seals already present in the building. No matter what he tried, he couldn't control it. In panic, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Takahiro! Quickly contact Mabu..."

He suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood and glanced at his chest in disbelief. He saw a bloody arm poking out of his chest. The poor man died on the spot. Following his shout, 4 Anbu ninjas rushed into the room. Unfortunately, each was welcomed by a lightning-charged senbon to their hearts. They collapsed right after entering the room and joined the old man in the afterlife.

Fujin stored the dead bodies of all 5 ninjas while thinking, 'My Flying Thunder God marks have already spread throughout the building. Unless they destroy the building and build a new one, they'll always stay here. Even if they destroy it, my clones are currently marking the rest of the village right now.

With those seals inside the village, I can infiltrate Kumo at will in the future. Perhaps I could use Akuro's identity to lure Ay out and then look here again in case I don't find what I want. Now then, I wonder where he has kept the scroll containing the secrets of the Lightning Chakra Mode and Kohaku no Johei.'

Fujin's first target was undoubtedly the Lightning Chakra Mode. Unfortunately, its scroll wasn't easy to find. From Dodai's memories, Fujin knew that Kumogakure maintained two scrolls that had the information he wanted. The reason for this was in case all masters of that jutsu ended up dying on the battlefield, the jutsu wouldn't be lost. In addition, the Raikage never carried the scrolls while on missions in case he lost them due to circumstances.

However, even with those conditions, finding the scroll wasn't easy. Kumo had taken the highest level of precautions to ensure that the scrolls would never fall into enemy hands. If Fujin hadn't been taking advantage of the circumstances created by Shikaku's plans, he would never have had such an easy time infiltrating into the building.

Mabui quickly barked orders. She summoned a Fuinjutsu Grandmaster to take a look at the seals on the building. In addition, she called on the other Kumogakure ninjas in the village. Within a couple of minutes, the building was surrounded by more than a couple thousand ninjas! The remaining council members had arrived as well.

Understanding the severity of the situation, Mabui didn't dare slack off. Someone had just taken over their leader's building! It was a matter of great humiliation for Kumogakure! As the one in charge of Kumogakure in the absence of other leaders, Mabui felt even more responsible. The deaths of the Anbu squads were still weighing on her and now she was in yet another crisis!

As soon as Grandmaster Nanako arrived, she began inspecting the seals on the building. The more she inspected, the grimmer her expression became. Inazuma asked, "Well, Nanako, what is it? How was the building taken over by seals so suddenly? And, can we break in?"

Nanako replied, "I have never seen anything like this in my entire life. There are hundreds, probably thousands of new seals on the building. These seals have skillfully avoided clashing with the older seals and are coexisting with them, but their existence makes it very difficult for us to control our seals. If we make a mistake, then we could end up triggering the explosive tags and I'm not sure what the result will be.

Still, I don't understand how so many seals could appear so suddenly. We regularly checked the seals. So, they couldn't have been hidden in this building, could they?"

Mabui was suspicious as well. She asked, "Do you think that this is an inside job... Huh?"

All of a sudden, all the Kumo ninjas looked up. They saw a figure wearing a black cloak and a demon mask leaning against the window and looking down at them!
