46 Assembling Elite Shinobi (1/2)
”Indeed, you are right about that fact. I can't defeat you if I fight each one of you together, and you aren't foolish enough to fight one on one against me even if you had some assurance to win.” Shun completely agreed with their words as he smirked behind his mask…
”But there is one thing that you don't know, your presence here already signified my victory!” his words were confusing for the Anbu ninjas, before they could figure out the meaning behind his words.
Shun jumped back as he loudly yelled, ”KAI!!” The ground below the Anbu started to glow as some of the Anbus realized what he was talking about.
One of them pushed away his comrades as he tried to let them survive this explosion but he didn't expect that the whole area had the Paper Explosives hidden in the grounds.
The place where his comrades fell down was also filled with Paper Explosives, the huge Explosion occurred and startled Everyone in the Konoha. It was of such magnitude that it was heard by the Third Hokage sitting in the Hokage Tower.
Meanwhile, Shun was staring at the fire which formed due to the explosions and was now spreading by burning the trees. He could see their bodies and observed them with his Sharingan, they were completely burned while having some missing parts of their body.
Shun let out a sigh as he made a run for it, he knew that he was safe now, they wouldn't be able to catch upto him now. He was running back towards the Uchiha District…
~~
The Third Hokage was so startled that he brought out a crystal ball from his drawer and placed it on top of a cloth, he started to make some hand-signs and the scene of Explosion appeared in that crystal ball.
Seeing the wide spread of Fire, he was so shocked that he nearly stood up, he knew that time was of essence and quickly ordered, ”Quickly call out for the Shinobis who know Water and Earth Manipulation.”
A Shadow left the room to complete that order while Hiruzen continued to glance at his Crystal Ball, he was also surprised when he saw 5 bodies in the midst of the fire, completely burned.
Recognizing them was completely impossible, it was as if they were burnt to their bones for this very purpose. Hiruzen grew worried as he thought 'So… The other villages have started to move huh.'
'Looks like I must push my plans forwards… I should be ready before the Kage Summit or else saving Konoha would be a pipe dream.' Hiruzen thought this before he stared at the Crystal Ball in front of him, the fire burning in the forest…

Shun returned back to his house and started to sleep in his own room. He was cautious on his way back and removed all traces which could lead to his own house, he understood that small mistake on his part will make him pay very dearly.
The day ended making Danzo confused about his identity as he had absolutely no idea about who was the person who killed his men. He was staring at the men who had returned empty handed from the Forest of Death.
After Hiruzen's men entered the forest, all of the Root Anbu retreated as it was too suspicious for them to remain there.
The next day, Shun woke up on time, he was thinking of the events of the previous night 'Yesterday was too crazy for me… They nearly caught me and my identity was nearly revealed.'
He was relieved about one thing and thought 'Good thing that it wasn't revealed yet, looks like the only advantage I had over him has slipped out of my hand. That man will definitely change his hideout now.'
Shun sighed out with a clear disappointment expressed on his face, he went down the stairs and started to make breakfast while lost in his own thoughts.
He finally returned back to the real world when he heard the sound of footsteps from Mikoto, she was rubbing her eyes as she glanced at Shun making breakfast for them.
