---------------------
In a private room beside the Hokage Office,
Tsunade, the various clan leaders, and the elders of the village are having a meeting as they discuss the recent events.
"Any lead Hokage-sama?" Yôur favorite stories at novelhall.coma asks Tsunade with slight worry in his eyes.
"Lord Fourth! Report what your scouts saw."
"Yes, Lady Fifth!"
Minato nods and walks towards the centre of the room. In these recent years, Minato had been tasked with the leadership of the Anbu. As the previous Hokage, he is more than enough to qualify for the responsibility.
"Around a month ago, some of our anbu stationed near the HOLE noticed some abnormalities in the Tonika Village. So, a squad went to the HOLE for investigation."
Minato marks a place on the giant map spread on the table.
"However, after a week, there was no sign of them. Instead, a messenger eagle begging for help arrived at the Anbu headquarter."
Minato pauses and turns towards Tsunade and the clan leaders.
"Also, it was around this time that the shinobis from Land of Sky invaded the Land of Fire and launched an all-out assault on Konoha. It was thanks to quick action from Hokage-sama and Izuna Uchiha, the village was able to avert the disaster with no casualties."
The various clan leaders and village leaders stare at Fugaku with an envious gaze.
"There is no doubt about it that Izuna Uchiha is the greatest asset of the village. If not for him, then we might have suffered major losses during the attack of Sand and the attack of Sky."
Hiashi declares as others nod in agreement.
"His contributions alone make him a worthy candidate for the position of next hokage. Not to mention his strength, which even compares to the likes of the First Hokage." Inoichi remarks.
"And there was a time we people were foolish enough to believe in the lies of Danzo and other elders to banish Uchiha clan to the outskirts of the village." Another clan leader comments.
Fugaku crosses his arms around his chest. He has a neutral expression on his face, but everyone could sense the pride in his eyes.
Ahem
Shikaku clears his throat to get their attention.
"We can discuss this matter later. For now, let's hear Lord Fourth's report."
"Yes yes Please excuse us, Lord Fourth and Lady Fifth!"
The clan leaders and elder regains their composure as Minato continues.
"Even though the damage was minimized, it still took us over a week to recover from it. The attack from the Land of Sky was a major violation of the peace treaty signed a few years ago.
So, Konoha had every right to counterattack and pay the favour in kind. Thus, Lady Fifth issued an SS-Rank mission to demolish the forces of Land of Sky. This mission was accepted by Izuna Uchiha, who I presume has already completed the mission."
Minato remind them of the red cloud that appeared on the horizon a few hours ago.
Mm
The clan leaders nod with a solemn look.
'A single person single-handedly destroyed a country feared by multiple nations. This is no small feat. This makes Izuna Uchiha on the same level as the God of Shinobi.'
Such thoughts ran across their mind.
"However, the Land of Sky is not our concern and is not the reason behind the meeting." Minato continues.
Ah
The clan leaders get out of their shock as Shikaku continues.
"You came just in time. There is an emergency! The Fourth shinobi war is about to start."
"Fourth shinobi war?"
Izuna raises an eyebrow
'Did Obito start his plan without even capturing the tailed-beasts?'
"Fill me in!" He turns to Minato and Tsunade.
"It's like this"
Minato recounts the entire series of events to Izuna. The girls also listen to the discussion.
"Hinata nee-san is in danger!"
Hanabi enquires with worry.
"Naruto and Sasuke Nii-san too!" Ayaka also has a worried expression.
"I see"
Izuna nods and ponders
'Stone golems armed with weapons and armours? That must be the army of demons. Did they awaken their general? Looks like I have to make a quick trip to Land of Demons. That priestess and her kid are in danger. Also, an impenetrable barrier around the HOLE."
Izuna closes his eyes and tries to sense his mark on Naruto and the group.
"I can't sense it. They are isolated by a space-time barrier."
Izuna opens his eyes and turns to the clan leaders.
"Alright! I will accept the mission and investigate the situation at HOLE. Meanwhile, you people gather your forces and prepare for the imminent war. If possible, try to communicate with other nations to seek an alliance. The situation might be worse than it seems."
Izuna warns them.
"Ok! Lord Fourth will deploy the Anbu unit to investigate the enemies. Shikaku will handle the logistics and Sakumo will command the forces." Tsunade orders everyone.
"Yes, Hokage-sama!"
The group of clan leaders nod and leave the room in hurry.
Only Minato, Izuna, and Tsunade are left in the room.
"How is it Izuna-kun? What's the real situation?"
Minato and Tsunade ask him with slight worry.
"You know about it, Minato-san!"
Minato's and Tsunade's questions slightly surprise Izuna.
"Of course, all these years; you have grown under our eyes. You are like an open book in front of our eyes."
Sigh
"Alright! I will tell you what I think is the truth or close to the truth."
Swish
Izuna makes some one-hand signs and summons a chibi Yin Kurama.
"Kurama, explain everything to them. The tale of demons, the origin of Zero-tails and the seal of the Sage."
