Chapter 18 - Meeting The Monster of the Mist (1/2)

The next day in the morning, we see activities in all the tents, in one of the tents, we can see Kira finished getting himself dressed. He wears mesh armor beneath his dark grey muscle shirts and his black jacket with dark blue fur in his collar. He also wears an ANBU pants with the left side of his legs bandaged in white with a black kunai holster and in his right hand is the seal with a Kanji for Scythe. His katana is in his back waist ( imagine the way Sasuke puts his katana in shippuden but with out the rope and using a seal to 'stick it' in his waist).

”Everyone ready?” Darui lazily said, looking at Kira, Naruto, Omoi and Bee. We all nodded at him.

”Then let's go” Darui said and all of them left the tent.

On the way we met with the girls, but we can see them being serious, especially Izana since this is her first S-Rank mission.

We reach the tent and enter it seeing Mei, Ao, Chojuro and Ameyuri inside talking to each other.

”Kumo's team, reporting in” Darui said.

Mei and the others nodded and we began talking about the mission.

Few minutes later since we are press for time, teams were decided.

The fortress team are Kira, Samui, Darui and Ao.

The River team are Mei (Since she's the Rebel leader, she needs to be alive so it was decided by everyone that she's in the team closest to the edge of the barrier), Ameyuri (Kira forced her to go with Mei), Chojuro, Omoi ( as a liason for Kumo) and Yugito (a just in case due to her status as a Jinchuriki)

-Kira's P.O.V.-

We where running through the woods, heading northeast where the fortress is.

I look at the sky while running and realise that it's noon. We'd been running for four hours since this morning, so we really need to speed up to reach our location.

”Darui-sensei, we need to move faster, we have been wasting alot of time” i said with a serious look.

Darui nodded at me ”alright people, we need to move faster, we only have until midnight to check if the Master Seal is there, otherwise we might not survive the trip back” he said with a grave tone. All of us nodded and began moving even faster.

three hours later, we reached our location, a destroyed fortress with mother nature ruling the fortress. There's vegetation all around and the vines hugs the majority of the walls with some wall crumbling down.

We reach the fortress on our maximum speed, due to Fenrir i recovered fast, Darui and Ao due to been veteran recovered fast as well but Samui is gasping for breath due to the speed in which the went.

We all nodded and waited a minute, while waiting we ask Ao about the underground base and he answer.

He didn't said much but the base has seals that blocks sensor ninjas for locating it due to the seals inside the walls. The base was used in the past to train ANBU's for the third Mizukage. The three bases goes from easy training to hardest, though the 'easy' ANBU training is still harder than a normal Jounin's training. The fortress ANBU base is where the 'hardest' training was held, Ao even said that hell seems cool to the training they where given here.

A minute later Samui recovers and we began moving inside. The fortress as a said was already conquer by mother nature and that's how it looks inside with the same walls broken and crumbling here and there.

”Follow me” Said Ao moving towards the barracks. We follow him and once inside the barracks, we can see 50 bunk beds to the right and to the left and windows behind each bunk beds. Ao move towards the back of the barracks then he touches the wall on the left side of the barracks. We watch it happen not knowing what he's going to do. Ao began touching the wall in different formations then he steps back and the wall trembles before moving towards the left, revealing a secret door with stairs going down.

We are surprise about the wall until Ao look at us ”Let's go, the Master Seal should be down there” Ao seriously said and we nodded at him and began moving down the stairs.

While walking down, i ask Ao ”What should we expect down there?” Ao said ”Many wooden doors but i know one place where the seal can be put on”

”Where?” Darui asked
