Yeah so it's been quite a while since the last chapter, but I've been busy with college and life and stuff, and just had no motivation to release a new chapter, until now.
Enjoy.
Minato: Okay Sensei, I would like you to take this *handing Jiraiya a scroll* this is an order to Danzo to allow you full access to all of his information regarding Orochimaru, the Uchiha clan, the history of the leaf village, and anything else you may deem useful, take as many of the Anbu under my direct control as you see fit. Do not go alone.
Jiraiya: Urgh Paperwork.... that's not really my area of expertise, can't you send Tsunade?
Minato: No, I need her to go tend to the wounded, Shizune also.
Tsunade: On it.
Jiraiya: Fine, hey kid you're Anbu right? you seem like you can handle yourself *gesturing toward Kakashi*
Minato: No, I need Kakashi with me, but anyone else is available.
Jiraiya: Fine I'm on my way
*with a puff of smoke the old geezer vanishes*
Minato: As for you two *addressing the elders* you are to go about your business as usual, but not a word of this to Danzo
Koharu: That's Lord Danzo, to you Minato
Minato: That's Lord Hokage to you Koharu
*With a somewhat shocked expression after being talked to like that, the two shuffled away out of the office*
Kakashi: What am I to do Sensei?
Minato: You are to trail them Kakashi, do not get caught, I have a feeling they'll be going straight to Danzo with this information. They still think him a better head of this village than I.
Kakashi: If they're meeting with Danzo it could be dangerous, am I to be accompanied by anyone?
Minato: No, Danzo will be too busy dealing with Jiraiya sensei ransacking his libraries.
Kakashi: What will you be doing Sensei?
Minato: Well first thing I have to do is find someone to take care of Naruto, I was thinking Mito Uchiha.
Kakashi: Do you think it wise to leave him with her? I mean her husband is
Minato: I know, but they would never harm the son of the Hokage, especially at a time like this, with all of Danzo's men keeping their eyes on them, believe it or not, that is probably the safest place for the child.
Kakashi: Except with his father.
Minato: Well I have to have a meeting with Shikaku, that man is the greatest strategist I've ever met, the safety of the village might very well depend on what plans he can make, and afterall, the safer the village, the safer the villagers, and that includes Naruto.
Cut away to the underground slums of the hidden leaf village, a tall man strides across a bridge, backed by 15 members of the Hokage's elite Anbu.
Danzo: To what do I owe this pleasure, Sannin?
Jiraiya: I have hear orders from Lord Hokage, for you to allow us access to all of your intel.
Danzo: Well that is rather odd, because I thought we had an arrangement, that the Hokage stays of out my business, and in turn I get things that are needed done, done.
Jiraiya: That was an arrangement you had with my Sensei, the Third, an arrangement that the Fourth only kept, under advice of the Third. As you know Sarutobi Sensei has unfortunately passed, and now the Fourth has decided that what is good for the Foundation, is good for the Hokage.
Danzo: Well this is most upsetting *clearly angered by this intrusion of privacy* I see you brought plenty of soldiers to enforce this order, worried that something might happen to you?
Jiraiya: Oh no, I just assumed that after all these years of underhand tactics, you would have mountains of juicy information for us, and two hands simply aren't enough to peruse it all. Shall we enter?
Danzo: Yes, all of our most important data is kept in a secure vault-library. It will take around 15 minutes for us to break the seal to the door, would you care for some refreshments?
Jiraiya: Nope, I think I'll view the seal removal, meanwhile the rest of my men will view the other information.
Danzo: Other information?
Jiraiya: Well yes, you don't expect me to believe that everytime you wish to add or remove a bit of intel, you spend 15 minutes opening the seal. A man like you would seek out a much more time preserving way of dealing with things.
Danzo: Well... there is a few rooms where we keep new intel.
Jiraiya: Good, and don't try to lie to us Danzo, I have handpicked these ninja, because I believe that there isn't a thing that you could hide from their combined efforts.
Danzo and his men lead Jiraiya and the others into the secure building
Danzo: If you would like to follow me, we will head to the Library, meanwhile a couple of my men will show yours, the other information.
Jiraiya: Just a sec, Hiro, I want you with me.
A young female masked with a bird anbu mask, resembling a Hawk
Hiro: Yes Lord Jiraiya
Danzo: Scared to be alone with me Jiraiya?
Jiraiya: No it's not that, I'm just a sucker for pretty young girls. Besides, me and you are both getting older, especially you, always helps to have a fresh pair of eyes, to give a new outlook on things. She may see something we overlook. *He says, giving hiro a stern look*
Danzo: Whatever you say Jiraiya, but I'm not senile yet, I still have plenty of years of fighting left in me.
After several minutes of walking, they finally reach the library
Jiraiya: You know, when you said the words, Vault-Library, this was not what I was expecting.
Danzo: Hide in plain sight Jiraiya.
Jiraiya's surprise was not unprovoked, as the door to the vault was just a regular wooden door, identical to that of the hundreds of wooden doors in this long corridor.
Danzo: Begin the seal removal
Root Ninja: Yes Sir.
The two ninja Danzo had brought with him to the vault, began a long and identical pattern of handsigns, simultaneously. This went on for what felt like an hour, but in reality only a quarter of that time.
Root Ninja: RELEASE!
The doors flung open to reveal a giant room, much bigger than either Jiraiya or Hiro had imagined to be behind that door. Bookshelves reaching 30 ft in height.
Jiraiya: You sly dog, you must have information on every person in existence.
Danzo: Don't be ridiculous, only those of importance. Most of them are just myths, and here-say anyway.
Jiraiya: Then why keep them so tightly locked up?
Danzo: Because even myths and heresay has a root of some truth.
Hiro: Lord Jiraiya, there is a false panel in the floor in front of the third bookshelf back, to the right.
Danzo looks astonished at her knowledge of this
Jiraiya: Oh did I forget to mention? Hiro is the prize Kunoichi of the Hyuga clan, I'm sure it doesn't matter though, I mean afterall the Hokage had ordered all information to be given to us, I have no doubt you would have shown us this room, given that Hiro had allowed you the chance to *He said Sarcastically*.
Danzo: Ofcourse.
They approach the floor panel, and one of the Root Ninja removes it. Jiraiya begins to climb the ladder down first
Jiraiya: Hiro you stay up here, and keep an eye on all these important myths, Danzo, I would appreciate it if you accompanied me.
Danzo: Indeed, Shura, you stay here and assist the young lady with anything she may need. Hao, you will be assisting Lord Jiraiya and I.
One of the Root ninja stays with Hiro, as the other follows after Danzo, and Jiraiya.
Jiraiya makes it to the bottom of the ladder, and finds a much more modest room, with scrolls and books left open on the pages they were left on, and not ordered in any particular way, much different to the pristine decoy upstairs.
Jiraiya: Now this is where the real gritty stuff is I'm sure.
Danzo: Peruse them as you wish, none leave this room however.
Jiraiya: Now Now, that's not what the Hokage ordered.
Danzo: Lord Hokage ordered for you and your men to be allowed access to my information, I am allowing you access, but it is not to leave the premises.
Jiraiya: very well have it your way, but I regret, this is still too much information for me to take all in in one short go.
The tall man makes a varied sequence of handsigns, bites his thumb and thrusts his hand to the ground.
Jiraiya: Summoning Jutsu!
At this moment, the room fills with a cloud of smoke, which swiftly disperses to reveal 7 toads, all larger than your average pond dweller, around 4 ft in size.
Jiraiya: Now, we have a lot of delicate information in here, I trust you can keep this under your hats. Bring to me anything you may deem important enough to grab my attention.
