Konohagakure.

Looking at the stable and prosperous night, the masked man who stood on top of the Hokage Mountain muttered to himself, "This kind of prosperity is false and fragile, I only need to touch it once to ruin it, this false world is not even worth nostalgia… So then, let's begin!"

After speaking this, the masked man's body disappeared into a spiraling void.

A few seconds later, the same spiraling vortex appeared inside Uzumaki Naruto's home.

Walking out of the spiraling vortex, the masked man looked coldly at Uzumaki Naruto who was sleeping on his bed.

Uzumaki Naruto was peacefully sleeping, dreaming of once again eating Ichiraku Ramen.

The slumbering Uzumaki Naruto was completely unaware of the sudden intruder who can forever take him away from his Ichiraku Ramen.

After looking at Uzumaki Naruto for a few seconds, the masked man looked outside the window, he was aware that the Anbu Team-11 is responsible for the protection of Uzumaki Naruto. .

In team-11, Uchiha Shisui is the only one that masked man thinks would be difficult to deal with. The opposite party has Mangekyou Sharingan, and the dojutsu that Shisui has is not known to him. But considering that it is a Mangekyou Sharingan, and it is awakened by none other than Uchiha Shisui, the most genius of the Uchiha Clan, so the Mangekyou Sharingan ability cannot be underestimated.

As for the others?

The masked man didn't really care about either of their presence.

There is Hatake Kakashi, but Hatake Kakashi is no threat to him.

As for Hyuga Kuroto and Might Guy?

Masked Man even disdains them.

When he learned that people like Hyuga Kuroto and Might Guy were part of the Anbu black ops that only recruits elites, the masked man was a bit surprised, but more than surprise, he was disdainful towards the village.

The fact that weaklings like Hyuga Kuroto and Might Guy have become part of the Anbu only proves that the village is rotten to the core and lacks talented individuals.

Converging his thoughts, the masked man focused on the thing he was here for, lifting his hands he stretched them towards Uzumaki Naruto.

Suddenly a few shurikens were shot into the room from outside the window, in an attempt to intercept the masked man's hand.

The corners of the masked man arched in a disdainful smirk and the movement of his hands did not stop. It seemed as if he was completely unaware of the incoming Shuriken.

Tuk… Tuk… Tuk… Tuk… Tuk… Tuk… Tuk… Tuk… Tuk…

The Shurikens that were supposed to stop the masked man directly phased through the masked man and nailed at the bed and walls of the room.

And the very next moment, four figures jumped into the room from the window.

The four of them are obviously the members of the Anbu team-11, which included, Dog, Cat, Monkey, and Eagle.

But their arrival was a moment late, as the masked man had already caught Uzumaki Naruto and dragged him into the spiraling whirl.

Seeing that the masked man wearing an orange spiral mask somehow made Uzumaki Naruto disappear into thin air, the four Anbu shinobi were surprised, Dog-masked asked Anbu asked sternly, "Who are you? And what do you want to do with that child?"

The masked man chuckled, and spoke in a deep voice, "I will take away that Kyuubi's Jinchuriki!"

After saying that, the masked man broke the window on the other end of the room and jumped out of it, disappearing into the night.

"Monkey fire the emergency signal flare, and we will immediately chase after him, he may be a member of Amatsukami, but we cannot be sure of that as his disguise is different, regardless we must stay alert and recover Uzumaki Naruto." – ordered Dog.

"Yes!" – all the three nodded, and went after the masked man, and Monkey also fired the emergency signal flare exclusive to team-11.

Hokage Building.

It's late at night but the Hokage office was still brightly lit, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mitokado Homura, Utatane Koharu, and Shimura Danzo, the four elder executives were sitting in the Hokage office, discussing the two anonymous letters delivered to the Hokage Building.

According to the first anonymous letter that was delivered to the Hokage Building about a month ago, there was only one sentence that stated that the missing-nin Hiruko of Konoha Sannin's generation is conspiring to attack the village.

While according to the second anonymous letter that was delivered to the Hokage Building yesterday, it was stated that the Uchiha Clan is planning to launch a Coup d'état within the next two days.

Looking at the two letters, Utatane Homura asked Sandaime, "Was there any result about the investigation of the creditor of the first letter?"

Sandaime shook his head, "Hatake Kakashi and Might Guy of Anbu team-11 were tasked with investigating, but there was no result, it seems that the creditor of the first letter seems to be very cautious and did not leave behind any clue for them to follow."

Utatane Koharu asked again, "And what about the second letter?

Sandaime shook his head, "Team-17 was responsible for the investigation, and they are still busy doing it but no result up until now."

Mitokado Homura said, "I suspect that the creditor is from the village and knows the basic layout of the Hokage Building, as such he or she may be someone close by, possibly even a guard."

Utatane Koharu compared both the anonymous letters and said, "Given that the handwriting of both the letters is completely different, so we can assume that the creditors who send these letters are different. Hiruzen did you instruct the Anbu to try to match these handwritings with the exam papers of graduating Shinobi? It's possible that we can find some clue from there."

Sandaime nodded, "That has already been done, I reached the same conclusion and instructed the Anbu to compare the handwriting with the papers of all the graduating Shinobi, but the handwriting is completely different, not even a single character matched!"

"Hiruko…?" – muttered Utatane Koharu, and said, "I do have little impression of this person. If I am not wrong, he was conducting unauthorized experimentations, and you sent Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Orochimaru to catch him, but he managed to flee, right?"

Sandaime nodded silently.

Even now, Sandaime can not forget the fervent gaze that Hiruko gave him when he was selecting disciples from the shinobi academy, because of Hiruko's mediocre talent, Hiruzen weighed it a little and choose Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya, who according to Hiruzen had greater potential, and did not choose Hiruko.

Mitokado Homura asked bluntly, "Hiruzen, do you think Hiruko can be a threat to the village?"

Sandaime groaned a little and said, "His strength should at most be at the level of a Jonin, so individually he can not be a threat, but given that the kind of experiments he was doing… adding the rumors of him joining the Akatsuki then he can pose a threat if he succeeded in his experiments and if Akatsuki plans to support his revenge on Konoha."

After a little bit of thinking, Utatane Koharu pushed the first anonymous letter aside, and focused on the second anonymous letter, "And what do you think about this one?"

When the matter of the second letter came, Shimura Danzo who has been silent up until now was the first to speak. "The threat that the Uchiha Clan poses to the village is not unknown, regardless of the credibility of this letter, we should focus our attention on the Uchiha Clan, I propose that the monitoring of the Uchiha Clan that has been withdrawn should be started again, and Root should be responsible for this task."

Sandaime did not immediately agree or disagree with Shimura Danzo's proposal but had a conflicted look and he hesitated.

The Uchiha clan has been somewhat calm in the recent period. The disappearance of Uchiha Hideki, Uchiha Ryota, and Uchiha Hiiragi has been a shame for Konoha, their disappearance has indeed diverted the Uchiha Clan's attention from Coup d'état against the village to hunting down Amatsukami.

But the fear of Mangekyou Sharingan engraved by Uchiha Madara is not so easy to let go, and even if it is 'Professor of Ninjutsu' Hiruzen Sarutobi, he can't fully compel himself to trust the Uchiha Clan.

What's more, there is always a probability that another Uchiha has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

And this anonymous letter says that the Uchiha Clan will launch Coup d'état within two days, even if this is hard to believe Sandaime must take this seriously.

But if the Uchiha Clan is again put under full monitoring, and it turns out that they did not intend to launch Coup d'état, and this anonymous letter is false, then that would again increase the tension between the village and the Uchiha Clan.

But if he did not put the Uchiha Clan under monitoring and it turns out that they were really planning to launch a Coup d'état then the consequences would be disastrous.

And if what this anonymous letter says is true, then he can't leave this matter alone, 'What to do…?"

Shot... Whiiiiiiiiisttttttleeeeeeee... BANG!!!

While Sandaime was having real trouble figuring out which option to choose, suddenly a loud popping sound resounded, following which a whistling sound and then an explosion was heard all over the Konoha.

Sandaime immediately stood up and looked out of the window with a solemn expression.
