Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Chapter 693: A Great Shame!

Kumogakure had been experiencing a strange day. When the people in the village woke up, they saw a massive barrier surrounding the village and every single ninja in the village was ordered to be alert. A few hours later, Darui led a huge army outside the village. The people wanted to hear from their Raikage, but he was nowhere to be found. And now, a couple of thousand ninjas had placed the Raikage's building under siege!

It immediately caused panic among the common people and even some ninjas. Discussions immediately broke out.

"Why have they sieged the Raikage Building?"

"Do you think those ninjas are committing mutiny?"

"No way! As if those ninjas have any chance against Raikage-sama."

"Is there an enemy inside the village?"

"But how could they have infiltrated into the Raikage building?"

"Have the other villages declared war on us?"

"Will the Fourth Great Ninja War break out soon?"

The people in Kumogakure immediately started making conspiracy theories. After all, there was nothing people loved more than gossiping. Of course, the spies in the village also took note of it. They were very curious about what was happening. They wanted to go closer to take a better look but didn't dare to do so in case it was a trap.

Around the Raikage building, hundreds of Kumo ninjas, along with people in power like Mabui, Inazuma, Nanako and the Council Members, looked at the building to see an unfamiliar figure casually leaning against the window and looking down at them! Immediately several discussions broke out wondering what the identity of that person was.

Mabui and the rest frowned as well. They had never seen or heard about anyone using such a disguise. Inazuma asked loudly, "Who are you? And how did you inscribe so many seals on the building?"

As he spoke, he unleashed his bloodlust, displaying his seriousness. However, he didn't get any reaction from Fujin, who continued looking casually. He glanced at Inazuma and thought, 'So he is the Elder who served as an advisor to the Third Raikage and continues to serve an important role in their council. From what Shikaku said, he was one of the main planners behind the Hyuga incident. Unfortunately, he is well past his prime to be much fun right now…'

Being ignored so casually was embarrassing for Inazuma. However, there wasn't even a hint of embarrassment on his face. Just like the Elders in Konoha, he had long mastered the Dao of Shamelessness. Such a casual insult didn't even increase his heartbeat.

Mabui followed up, "Who are you? And, what do you want?"

Finally, Fujin sighed and asked softly, "What are you doing? Your headquarters is taken over by someone and you are just standing outside obediently?"

He let out another long sigh and muttered, "Those brats scammed me…"

Fujin's response left the Kumo ninjas too stunned to speak. Their eyes twitched as they wondered, 'What the hell? You've taken over our most important building and are disappointed that we haven't attacked yet? And then you complain about being scammed? What the fuck is he talking about?'

Even the experienced Council Members didn't know how to reply. Despite having experienced a lot, what they witnessed was undoubtedly the strangest situation they were ever a part of.

Mabui became increasingly annoyed. She shouted, "Bastard, what do you mean by scam? Stop messing around and answer our questions!"

To her surprise, Fujin actually answered her, "That blondie with the kid called Darui said that the Raikage in her village is very strong. She promised that he'd be able to kill me with ease.

Unfortunately, I don't sense anyone strong among you. I'll give you four hours. Summon whoever that guy is and ask him to fight me. If you fail to do so, I shall wipe this village off the face of the planet!

Of course, if you want to try and enter this building, be my guest. However, seeing your pitiful strength, I'd advise against doing so."

With those words, Fujin left the window and walked inside, leaving a bunch of confused Kumo ninjas. The Council Members questioned in disbelief, "Did he just call Darui a kid?"

"What does he mean by whoever that is? Does this lunatic not know who Raikage-sama is?"

"Does he have a death wish? Why doesn't he just commit suicide instead of bothering us?"

"He mentioned a blonde girl. Was he mentioning Yugito or Samui?"

Inazuma said, "That isn't important. What's important is that he mentioned Darui. Contact Darui immediately and get this guy's information. Then contact Raikage-sama and inform him of this situation. Nanako, continue inspecting the seals on the building and check whether it's safe to enter inside."

Another Council Member said, "Even though this situation is terrible, there is one silver lining. He said that he didn't intend to attack for four hours. We can take this time to evaluate our options. We could even wait for Darui's group to return. We still don't know where Raikage-sama is but he could retu..."

He was harshly cut off by Inazuma, who shouted, "Don't forget what this building is. All our documents are inside the building. There is no way we can wait for hours without doing anything. His words might just be a ruse to scare us and buy him some time to do what he wants. So, don't lower your guard. Not to mention, our reputation will be dragged through the mud once this matter leaks! Imagine what every other village would think if they knew that two thousand Kumogakure ninjas waited outside for hours while a single ninja took control of the Raikage Building!"

The expressions of everyone nearby became ugly. Nanako quickly got to work while Mabui reorganized the communication team and contacted Darui's group.

In the middle of a forest fire, close to four hundred ninjas were waiting anxiously for the return of their leaders. Suddenly, one of the ninjas, tasked with communication, began receiving a message. He quickly rushed to an Elite Jounin and informed, "Lady Mabui wants to talk to Darui-sama."

The Elite Jounin frowned and said, "Inform her that he's still in battle."

However, he immediately received a reply, "She said that this is of the highest priority. The village is facing grave danger."

The Elite Jounin frowned. He was one of the two who fought against Fujin. He didn't want to leave the barrier until Darui and the rest returned. The Elite Jounin next to him said, "Our sensors said that the fighting stopped a few minutes ago. So, either that freak is dead or he's planning another fucked up move.

Regardless, it should be safe temporarily. I'll take him along with me and meet up with them. You stay back in the barrier and ensure that it stays safe."

The other guy nodded and said, "Be careful."

The Elite Jounin and the communication ninja left the barrier and rushed towards Darui's group.

Inside the Raikage's building, Fujin's shadow clones were working at full speed. Dozens of Shadow Clones rummaged through the scrolls and files inside the building. They intended to look through as many scrolls as they could.

Of course, many scrolls in the building were traps set for anyone attempting to steal them. Fujin knew that from Dodai's memories, which is why he didn't look personally for them and instead left everything to his clones. In addition, even though Dodai didn't know the most important things like the location of the scroll containing the secrets of the Lightning Chakra Mode and the location of Kohaku no Johei, he knew some other important things.

The first Shadow Clone that Fujin created inside the building flickered to one important scroll from Dodai's memories. He quickly found it and opened it. As he read through the contents, a smile appeared behind his mask.

The clone thought, 'Even though this isn't the real Lightning Chakra Mode, this scroll contains the Third Raikage's notes from when he was creating this jutsu. It also contains the basics of Black Lightning. With these, I might be able to replicate those techniques by myself even if I don't find the final scrolls.

The only drawback is that I'd need to spend several months, or perhaps even a few years to replicate them. Then again, it isn't entirely bad. After all, the process of creating a new jutsu is extremely beneficial for any ninja. During that period, a ninja's creativity is at its peak. Just like how I got the ideas for this battlefield while I was working on the Fuin Battlefield, hehehe. I wonder if the Kumo ninjas will step into this building…'

At the same time, another clone went into the underground. Just like Konoha, Kumogakure's Anbu headquarters was just under their Kage's building. They had emptied the base since the seals had spread through it as well. However, Fujin's clone had no interest in the Anbu ninjas. Instead, he moved towards some storage rooms, removed the seals on them and opened them. A wide smile appeared on his face. Had Hiruzen seen that smile, he'd definitely recall a few unpleasant memories.
