"Enough chitter chatter! It's time to get to work!" Pain rebukes Deidara.

"Alright, I am on it!"

Deidara opens his palm and releases a flock of clay sparrows from them. The sparrows fly up in the sky and scatter.

Deidara closes one eye and shares his vision with his sparrows.

"Explosion Release: Multi vision death,"

He scouts the perimeter of Konoha with his mini sparrows.

"There are 7 scout towers and 4 different patrol bases." He marks the location on the map.

"Take a tower on each. I will handle the patrol bases."

Pain gestures to the remaining members of the Akatsuki.

"Deidara… monitor the activities of shinobis using your mini sparrows. Don't let anyone escape."

Tch…

Deidara clicks his tongue in dismay.

"When will it by turn to blow things up? Alright… alright! I will do it!" He closes one eye and continues to monitor the activities of Konoha patrol shinobis.

Tobi separates from the group.

"I will move on my own. I have certain things to attend to!"

Tobi warps away in a spiral and heads toward Konoha. He stares at the barrier around Konoha.

"This flimsy barrier won't stop me from infiltrating Konoha."

Zetsu also enters the ground and monitors the activities of Akatsuki.

'It's about time. Our plan takes an additional step ahead.'

-------------------------

Meanwhile, at the same time inside In-Yō headquarters,

Bzzt….

Some ripples spread across the CPS system present in the center of the room. Multiple yellow dots appear on the map. Some dots are very small while other dots are larger. One particular dot is almost the size of a ping-pong ball.

"Unidentified targets discovered!"

The CPS system alerts the entire village as multiple feedbacks appear in the headquarters of Anbu, Konoha Police Force, and Konoha reconnaissance and investigation center.

In the Anbu headquarters,

Itachi, who is instructing his subordinate frown. He quickly enters the observation room to monitor the situation.

The alarm alerts the Minato, Tsunade, Mei, Jiraiya, and Kushina, who are discussing important matters in the Hokage Office.

"What's the matter? Why is the CPS system issuing an alert?" Tsunade frowns.

"Let me check."

Kushina takes out a scroll from her storage. She opens the scroll and lays it down on the table. There is a giant seal on the center of the scroll. Kushina bites her thumb and drips a drop of blood on the seal.

Shiing…

The scroll releases a bright light and a small transparent sphere rises from the center of the scroll.

Multiple yellow dots appear on the sphere.

"There is a breach in the barrier. Multiple unidentified targets have entered the outer perimeter of Konoha."

A similar situation occurs in the Konoha Police Headquarters. Shisui stares at the multiple yellow beacons on the map.

"Display the beacons of the nearby Scout towers and patrol bases. Also, inform them about the situation."

Ping… Ping…

Multiple green markers appear on the map.

"These are the shinobis present in the patrol zone."

Ding… ding…

One by one, the green beacons slowly disappear from the map. Shisui's expression turns grim.

"Mark these targets as hostile targets and issue an alert to all security teams. Konoha is under attack!"

He orders the head of the observation team of the Konoha Police Force. Shisui summons his deputies Isao and Atsushi. (Chapter 207: Sand Jinchuruki)

"Isao… Atsushi! Keep an eye on the activities of enemies. Also, keep all teams on standby and help other teams evacuate the civilians in case of an emergency. I will head to the Hokage Office to discuss the situation with Lady Tsunade." Shisui issues a series of orders to them.

"Yes, sir!" Isao and Atsushi salute him.

Whoosh…

Shisui flickers out of the Konoha Police Headquarters.

Itachi also issues a series of commands to his Anbu members and flickers toward the Hokage Office.

Inside the Hokage Office,

The color of the beacons turns red on the sphere. The expression of the group turns grim.

"It's an enemy attack!"

Tsunade immediately bites her thumb and makes a series of hand signs and slams her palm on the desk.

Shoom…

A teleportation seal appears beneath the group.

Whoosh…

The entire group disappears from the Hokage Office and reappears in the In-Yō headquarters. They quickly enter the observation room.

Kushina swiftly activates the visual feed of the CPS system.

Swoosh… swoosh…

Multiple images of Akatsuki members attacking the scout towers and patrol bases appear on them.

"Damnit! It's the Akatsuki members. How dare they attack Konoha?" Tsunade gnashes her teeth.

"They must be here for the One-tails and the Nine-tails." Kushina gnashes her teeth.

Before Izuna went missing, he managed to extract One-tails from Gaara at the latter's request. Gaara entered into a comatose state for a month but was able to survive the extraction of the tailed beast thanks to Izuna's Life Release.

Currently, the one-tails and Yin half of Nine-tails are sealed into an isolated space inside the Uzumaki temple located in the Uzumaki clan district.

"Minato activates the secondary and tertiary defenses of the Protection barrier. Also activate the Space Locking Seal. We can't allow these criminals to enter Konoha or else they might level the entire village.

Jiraiya notices the figure of Yahiko in the visual feed.

Haah…

He takes a deep breath to calm his emotions.

"I never imagined this day would come! It's my fault as a teacher, and I am willing to take responsibility for it."

"Jiraiya! Don't be reckless. Wait for others first."

Whoosh…

Jiraiya disappears from the In-Yō headquarters.

"Damn this bastard! He never listens to anyone." Tsunade punches the wall of the observatory.

Shisui and Itachi also enter the observatory.

"Good timing!" Minato quickly explains the situation to the duo.

"Currently, there are 14 Akatsuki members wreaking havoc in the outer perimeter of Konoha. We have erected the defensive barrier built by Izuna. But that's only a temporary measure. We can't hide inside the village like a turtle. Pick up your opponents based on their strengths and weaknesses. We will counterattack them. Given the threat level of the Akatsuki members, sending other shinobis will add to the casualties. Inform Kakashi and Might Guy to enter the battle." Minato immediately issues a set of commands.

"Also, inform Naruto and Sasuke. Those two are strong enough to take on opponents of such a level."

"But Minato… those two are here for…" Kushina attempts to argue with him.

"No… Kushina… we can't allow Naruto to forever live under our and Izuna's protection. He is also a shinobi who risks his life to move forward. Besides, he isn't as weak as you think he is." Minato assures her.

Beep… beep…

Suddenly, two red beacons appear dangerously close to the inner perimeter of Konoha. The location of the beacon is almost at the entrance of Konoha village.

"Someone managed to infiltrate this far into the village." Tsunade's eyes narrow at the situation.

A visual feed of a yellow-masked shinobi appears in their sight.

"He is…"

"I will take care of him." Minato interrupts Kushina.

'Please don't be too harsh on him.' Kushina mouths these words before she focuses her attention on the visual feeds.

"Kushina… I will return to the Hokage office to manage the protective barrier of the village and perform my duties as the Hokage of the village."

Swoosh…

Tsunade also disappears from the observatory.

-------------------------

Outside Konoha's wall,

BANG….

Tobi is pushed out of his Kamui dimension.

Hmm…

"What's this?"

He notices a layer of sturdy invisible barrier blocking the entrance to Konoha. He reuses his Kamui to bypass the barrier, but is repelled.

"Space locking formation,"

Zetsu pops out of the ground and remarks.

"You know about it!" Tobi turns to Zetsu.

"It's an extremely advanced Fuinjutsu formation. We encountered a similar seal in the Otsutsuki ruins. It will take a lot of effort to break past this seal." Black Zetsu remarks.

"Is there no way around it?" Tobi questions.

"No! None of us is an expert in Fuinjutsu. We can only break this through brute force." He shakes his head in denial.

"This wasn't a part of our plan. Was it a measure left behind by Izuna Uchiha?" Tobi murmurs to himself as he takes out a strange green crystal from his storage.

There are three green beacons in the crystal. Two of the beacons are situated at the same place, while the third beacon is dashing towards them.

"Three signals?" Tobi frowns.

"Look, the signal of Nine-tails is very weak. From the looks of it, it's divided into two halves." Zetsu points out.

"Let's retreat for now and group up with Pain. Looks like my plan to capture the tailed beast and destroy Konoha needs slight revision."

Obito prepares to leave the area using his Kamui.

"It has been a while, Obito!"

Suddenly, a yellow-haired figure appears behind him.

BANG…

Before Tobi could finish his teleportation, he is sent flying by a heavy kick on his back.
