Chapter 493: Konoha Collapse Plan: Appetizer

Wooo Wooo Wooo

The weird wailing and roaring sound continued to spread throughout Konoha.

Byakugan… Byakugan…

As soon as the father and son duo heard this wailing sound, both of them subconsciously activated their Byakugan and similar to Uchiha Sasuke, looked in the direction from where the sound came, but they could notice anything, and it seemed that the source of the sound was too far away from them… which exceeded the upper limit of the range their Byakugan could perceive.

Finding nothing, Hizashi deactivated his Byakugan, and instructed Neji, “Okay, let’s go back to the Clan grounds…”

Neji also deactivated the Byakugan, but different from his father, he said, “Otou-sama, I don’t know why… but I feel an ominous feeling from those sounds.”

Hizashi nodded with a solemn expression… as he too felt that those sounds contained a wave of evil Chakra that is full of madness and destruction, and he has a feeling that something big and ominous is about to happen.

Thinking so, Hizashi urged Neji to hurry, and when passing by the three children named Naruto, Sasuke, and Kiyomi, he said to them, “You three, don’t wander around here, and hurry to your homes.”

Somewhere in the Konoha Market.

Little Shion who had just finished attending the Academy Entrance Ceremony not too long ago is currently walking through Market Street and is on her way to the Hyuga Clan grounds.

As always, she is wearing her Miko garb which consists of a white Hakui and a pair of red hakama, a pair of white socks, along with sandals. She is holding a stick of Dango dumplings in one hand while her playing with her hair using her other hand and looking around to find something interesting.

Shion’s guard Taruho was helplessly following behind her, holding a lot of snacks and toys that Shion had just bought on a whim… this has become his daily life these days.

Wooo Wooo Wooo

At this moment, the wailing sound echoed throughout the village…

The moment Shion heard this voice, she stopped…  rather stunned, it felt as if she was struck by lightning… the pupils in her eyes changed into a complex geometrical pattern and her expression changed into a horror one.

Taruho noticed Shion’s strangeness, and quickly asked, “Shion-sama, what’s the matter?”

Shion who seemed to be shocked suddenly, recovered but she no longer had her previous look, she turned around slightly and said to Taruho, “I… I saw a death prophecy!” as tears started to stream out of her eyes.

Taruho was startled, and he also understood what Shion’s reaction means, ‘So this time, it’s my turn, huh?’

Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep… Alarm Sounds…

Before either of the two could say anything, a loud alarm sounded in the entire Village.

The alarm was a signal… a signal that all the Villagers must rush towards the refugee, immediately!

‘This is my duty and I was always prepared for this…’ with this determination in his mind, Taruho no longer cared about all the things in his hands, and without any hesitation picked up Shion and rushed towards the Refugee, as Kuroto had instructed him.

On a cliff not far from Konohagakure.

An elite Jonin of Kusagakure named Mui, who also happened to be the master of the Hozuki Castle until his disappearance a few months ago was step-by-step walking towards a huge cubical black box that had several ghostly faces carved on its four sides.

If our protagonist Hyuga Kuroto was here, he would have definitely recognized this huge black box exuding an evil Chakra… because based on the memories from his previous life, Kuroto knows that this box is Kusagakure’s hope of reviving their village to their previous glory, their ultimate weapon, ‘The Box of Ultimate Bliss!’

Behind Mui were four different people wearing individual Sheep, Cow, Dog, and Monkey headgear… These four are the elder of Kusagakure’s radical faction… and at this moment, when The Box of Ultimate Bliss is about to finally open their expressions under their headgear are crazed and ecstatic… it is as if the entire Shinobi World is about to fall in their hands.

“Magnificent!”

“Our long-cherished wish about to finally come true!”

“The revival of Kusagakure to its former glory starts on this day, at this moment!”

“Mui, do not hesitate, Mui, the box is supposed to listen to the gatekeeper… Hurry and wish for the revival of Kusagakure! Your late son must be wishing is as well!”

There was no hesitation in Mui’s face and he continued to walk forward.

Uchiha Shinichi adjusted the clothes of the unconscious Ni’i Yugito, the Jinchuriki of Nibi, currently she didn’t have much chakra left as more than 90% of Nibi’s Chakra sealed inside her was siphoned away by the Box of Ultimate Bliss. After she was nearly empty, and Shinichi had adjusted back her clothes; he threw her on top of the Giant Chimera Beast where Hiruko stood akimbo.

Immediately he glanced at the Kusagakure Shinobi in the distance with a disdainful expression and said, “A bunch of ambitionists who doesn’t even understand their upper limits… are they also worthy of ruling over the entire Shinobi World?”

Hiruko who was standing on top of the Chimera Beast caught the unconscious Ni’i Yugito, then moves his gaze towards ‘The Box of Ultimate Bliss’ with a curious expression.

Unlike Uchiha Shinichi who has Uchiha Clan’s arrogance deeply rooted in his bones, Hiruko has the mind and curiosity of a researcher, therefore, he was quite curious about what the Box of Ultimate Bliss is capable of?

He had been curious about it but no matter how much he tried, he couldn’t make a single dent on ‘The Box of the Ultimate Bliss’, this alone was more than enough to pique Hiruko’s curiosity.

Moreover, in the past few months, he has also researched the history and the background of ‘The Box of Ultimate Bliss’, and he has learned that this Box has existed for several centuries. Its history dates back to the era of Rikudo Sennin… so, he is much-much curious and really wants to know what is this box, that used to exist in the era of Rikudo Sennin.

As Shinichi walked closer to the Chimera Beast, Hiruko’s lips arched in a smile, and he asked casually, “What do you think is hidden inside that Box?

Shinichi said, “Whatever is hidden inside the Box, I highly doubt if it is capable of destroying Konoha.”

Hiruko said in a surprised tone, “Oh? You seem to overestimate the strength of Konoha.”

Shinichi shook his head in disdain and said, “And you seem to underestimate Konoha’s strength.” After speaking so, he also thought with a smirk, ‘After all, the boss is the ultimate Boss of Konoha… As long as he is alive, destroying Konoha is just a pipe dream…’

Hiruko did not argue with Shinichi, instead, he said, “Our deal with Kusagakure’s radical faction is just that we will open ‘The Box of Ultimate Bliss’ for them, and in exchange, they will destroy Konoha for us. Just because we made this deal with them doesn’t mean that we truly expect them to be able to destroy Konoha, the strongest of the five great Shinobi Villages…

The attack from ‘The Box of Ultimate Bliss’ will just be an appetizer… The main course of ‘Konoha Collapse Plan’ is something else entirely… Heh, even if the Five Kages have gathered here to deal with the Akatsuki, it would make no difference… when ‘He’ makes his move.” With a burst of mocking laughter, Hiruko said, “Let’s go… our mission here is complete… now let’s enjoy the show of Konoha disappearing from the map of this Shinobi world.”

Shinichi said nothing, he just jumped up and landed on top of the Chimera Beast then, together with Hiruko, and the unconscious Ni’i Yugito flew away from here, although, midway he did look back at the sight of the village with a melancholic expression and thought, ‘Boss, I do hope that you will be able to handle ‘Him’… because if even you can’t… then Akatsuki’s Konoha Collapse Plan will really succeed and today will really become the day when Konoha disappears from the map of this Shinobi World… and the era of the Five Great Shinobi Villages come to an end.’

On the side of Kusagakure Radical Faction.

Mui who has walked closer to ‘The Box of Ultimate Bliss’ looked at the hideous face on the Box and stopped… at this moment, his mind was in turmoil and all he could do was remember his son, Muku.

As a staunch member of the radical faction of Kusagakure, Mui’s lifelong wish was to open ‘The Box of Ultimate Bliss’ because he hoped to revive the previous glory of Kusagakure.

With this objective, he tried opening the Box using his son, Muku’s Chakra, but his son’s Chakra was too little to be able to open the Box… as a result, his son was swallowed by the Box.

It has been 2 years since that happened, and for these past two years, all Mui can do is curse himself for what he did to his son! It was at the moment when his son was sacrificed that he realized that what he cared for most was not the glory of Kusagakure, but his own Son, Muku… therefore, all he wants now is to bring his son back.

To this end, Mui did not hesitate to follow the Elders’ advice to cooperate with the Akatsuki Organization, nor did he hesitate to sacrifice all the criminals locked in the Hozuki Castle with the hope that his wish to see his son can be granted.

As Mui raised both his hands, the memories of his son continued to fill his mind and all the urging of the elders of Kusagakure were completely left behind by him.

“Open, here and now…! Oh, Box of Ultimate Bliss!” As Mui yelled, suddenly a layer of Black Chakra enveloped the Box of Ultimate Bliss; the sounds of whispers and cries full of pain sounded everywhere.

“Heed my wish…” But Mui continued as several trails of tears started to stream out of his eyes.

The whispers in the surroundings increased and so did the expectations on the faces of the Kusagakure elders under their masks.

Mui continued word by word, “Let me see my son Muku! Oh, Box of Ultimate Bliss… Heed my Wish!”

Wooooooooo

Instantly, an echo came sounded from the Box and the black Chakra enveloping the Box turned purple…

“What?!” The Cow head elder exclaimed in shock.

“Have you gone mad, Mui?!” The Sheep head elder shouted in shock.

“Kusagakure vanished from my heart long ago! Yes, from the day I lost Muku two years ago!”

“You traitor!” the monkey head elder shouted in anger.

“How dare you betray the village?!” the Dog head elder also added in anger.

The four Kusagakure elders of the radical faction were shocked, never did they expect such a problem to arise at the final moment… never did they expect that the Guardian of the Box of Ultimate Bliss who had always dreamed for the revival of Kusagakure to its original glory would suddenly betray them at the final moment.

Angered for the betrayal they immediately rushed towards Mui, hoping to kill him and change the wish.

Woooooooo

But before they could make it close enough another loud wailing echo resounded following which the joints of the strange face carved on the side of the Box of Ultimate Bliss facing Mui glowed in orange light and one by one all fell to the ground to and the face of a black beast carved into the box immediately appeared before everyone.

The beast opened its mouth wide open to reveal a big hole that seemed to hide the darkness within, it felt as if the mouth was a connection to a different dimension where only darkness of madness lurks.

When the hole opened a wave of evil chakra appeared out of the Box of Ultimate Bliss, all five people including Mui and the four Kusagakure elders were stunned and felt almost condensed, substantial malice coming out of the Box of Ultimate Bliss.

But soon, the malice disappeared, and lone figures wearing ragged and torn clothes staggered out of the darkness.

Konohagakure, inside Hokage Office.

The representative of the conservative faction of Kusagakure bent forwards and apologized to Sandaime Hokage, “Please forgive our incompetence Hokage-dono, we were unable to delay Mui from making his move until the day after tomorrow as per your requirement.”

Sandaime sighed, and said while waving his hand to let the man stand up, “The ones bound to come will eventually come… You were able to delay up to today is already more than I could have asked for, so there is no need for the apology Mu-San.” And after a pause, he continued, “What about the information on the Box of Ultimate Bliss that I asked for? Is it really all lost?”

The representative, named Mu sighed and nodded, “I assure Hokage-sama that we did not hide anything… all the meager information we had about the Box of Ultimate Bliss has already been passed to Hokage-sama.”

Sandaime took a deep breath and released a puff of smoke, then said, “That is to say… neither the conservatives nor the radicals know what actually is inside that Box?”

Mu sighed and nodded with a solemn expression, “Back in the day, Kusagakure tried all means to open the Box, but nothing worked, and in the past few decades thousands of people have been sacrificed to it by the radical faction, all the criminals locked inside the Hozuki Castle have also been sacrificed to that box, but still, nothing worked… therefore, we will believe that whatever is inside that box is really ominous and endanger the existence of the entire Shinobi World. So, when dealing with it, please take it extremely seriously.”
