Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

Chapter 57: First Encounter with Sannins

Inside the Anbu Headquarters,

Izuna is holding a summon scroll from Hokage's Office as he stocks up on his supply. The Captain of Team Ro just passed this scroll to him, since he is the only available Anbu at present in the Village.

Kakashi and others are out at borders to settle the unrest caused by rogue Shinobis. It has been three months since he joined the Anbu and he had completed a bunch of missions from assassination to Information Retrieval.

Izuna departs for the Hokage's office as he pockets the scroll.

Inside the Hokage's office,

Minato is discussing some matters with Hiruzen as the latter guides him on some matters.

"Lord Third! Is it alright to send his former comrades to assassinate him?" Minato questions Hiruzen

"I also don't want to do this, But we have no choice. Most of our capable shinobis are occupied at the borders to prevent skirmishes orchestrated by small Villages. Also, I think they would be the perfect Candidates for the mission." Hiruzen replies to Minato.

Soon, the door to Hokage's office opens as three-person enters the office.

"Oh! You are finally here, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru." Hiruzen address the new-comers.

"Why you have called us here, Sensei? I returned to the Village to join the war on your summon. I will return after this mission. I won't stay in the Village for too long." Tsunade grumbles as she folds her hands in front of her chest.

"Oh! Minato. How are you spending your days as Hokage? Huh! You seem pretty exhausted. Sensei, want to have some fun with me later? We will do our research together after the mission." Jiraiya laughs as he speaks to Hiruzen and Minato.

"Also! Tsunade, you should cheer up a little or you will become a granny in few more years with that constant frown on your face." Jiraiya pokes fun of Tsunade.

Tsunade has a tick mark on her forehead as she snaps and punches Jiraiya on the head. She angrily stares at Hiruzen who is sweating profusely at the moment.

"Sensei! Why have you called all three of us after the war? I am sure there must be a reason for this emergency summon." Orochimaru calmly questions Hiruzen.

"Wait, for a few minutes. The fourth member for the mission will arrive soon. After that, I will start briefing you on the details of the mission." Hiruzen replies to Orochimaru as he avoids the angry gaze of Tsunade.

KnockKnock

There is a knock on the door.

"Oh! He has arrived. Come in." Minato informs them.

I knock on the door as I wait for the response. Soon, Minato orders me to enter.

"You have a mission for me Hokage-sama." I walk straight to Minato as I place the scroll on his table.

"Hmmit's not me who has a mission for you, rather it is Lord Third who issued the mission. I just passed the mission to anbu and you happened to be the person who received it." Minato is surprised to see me appear for the mission.

"You called for me Lord Third." I bow before Hiruzen as I wait for his orders.

"Hmm I have an S-rank mission for you. Before I brief you on the mission, let me introduce you to your teammates." Hiruzen points in Sannins direction as he starts the introduction.

"These are the Three Legendary Sannins of the Leaf Village. You must be aware of them. They will be your teammates for the mission."

I remove my mask as I start to introduce myself to them,

"I am Izuna Uchiha. A member of the anbu and I would request you to call me Tora for this mission." I wear my mask again.

"Oh! He is that same kid, Minato. So, you have joined Anbu. You must have some extraordinary skills to be able to join the Anbu at such a young age." Jiraiya points at me as he immediately recognizes me.

"Oh! You knew him, Jiraiya." Hiruzen asks Jiraiya in surprise.

"Yes! I meet him before the war when you summoned us back to the village. This kid created an S-Rank Jutsu on his own." Jiraiya talks about me.

"What?" Hiruzen is surprised to hear this. He stares at me for a while before he nods to himself.

"Still, he is a kid. I don't want a kid to join us on an S-rank mission and lose his life for no reason." Tsunade interrupts the conversation as she points at me.

"I don't agree with your decision to include him in our mission. Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and I are enough for this mission." Tsunade continues.

Orochimaru stays silent during the entire conversation.

"He is an Anbu Tsunade. Also, he has earned the moniker of 'Silent Shinigami' during the war. That speaks for his prowess." Hiruzen explains to Tsunade.

"But, sensei."

"No, buts this is an order, Tsunade. Also, you will need his assistance during the mission. He is a part of Anbu and is skilled in tracking and assassination." Hiruzen rebukes Tsunade as he explains the mission.

"Recently, various reports of missing shinobis appeared in the village. To investigate the issue, Minato and I deployed a unit of Anbu. One of our Anbu units uncovered an underground Laboratory where some unethical and forbidden experiments are carried out without the consent of the Village. Upon further investigation, the perpetrator is found to be one of your comrade and childhood friend Hiruko.

Your mission is to uncover his motives if he doesn't comply then assassinate him. Keep in mind he is practicing a Kinjutsu, so you should be on alert when you face him.

Here is the location of his lab. Orochimaru will be your leader for the mission. Good luck with your mission."

Hiruzen passes a scroll to Orochimaru as he dismisses us. All of us flickers away from the office as we move towards the entrance of the village.

Orochimaru leads us towards the laboratory as we follow him.

"Kid, you better stay out of this mission. Such dangerous missions aren't for kids like you. You may lose your life unnecessarily." Tsunade warns me.

I am pissed off by her attitude. I know that she cares about me, but we are in the middle of a mission and the Hokage has approved my skills. Honestly, what's her problem?

'Swift Release: God Speed'

I disappear from my position as I reappear behind Tsunade with a kunai on her neck. Orochimaru and Jiraiya are stunned to see my speed. Tsunade is perplexed, but she calms down as she remarks,

"Although, your speed is impressive for your age. But it is still not enough to beat me."

She turns around and clenches her fist as she tries to punch me. I dodge her punch as she shatters a tree from her punch.

'Genjutsu: Sharingan'

I cast a genjutsu on her to prevent her from attacking me. She easily dispels my genjutsu after a few seconds.

'Her Chakra control is perfect. I have yet to reach the perfect level, but I am close. Guess genjutsu from normal Sharingan can't affect her and I don't want to use my Mangekyo Sharingan unnecessarily just over a small dispute. I just have to convince her of my skills.'

I start to knead Chakra in my palms as I form a seal, I appear in front of Tsunade as I dodge one of her punch and hit her arm with my palm.

'Fuinjutsu: Chakra Suppression Seal'

A seal starts to spread over her arms as it suppressed her chakra. Ignoring the seal, she continued to punch me. Her punch still packed power despite no chakra. I redirected the shock from her punch to ground through Shock Release as I ate her punch without flinching.

Tsunade is surprised to see this. I create Rasengan and adds a little Lightning Chakra to it and throws it towards Tsunade. My Rasengan disappears as Tsunade snorts at me.

"Watch out Tsunade, his jutsu is invisible to eyes," Jiraiya warns Tsunade.

Tsunade ducks down and avoids my Rasengan. I purposely aimed it above Tsunade to avoid her. I don't want to exhaust her before the mission.

Boom

The Rasengan collides with a nearby tree and it shatters it. It continues and creates a large crater on impact. Tsunade is shocked to see the damage caused by my jutsu.

"Tsunade, that's the S-Rank jutsu, he created on his own. And from the looks of things, it seems like he didn't infuse enough Chakra in the jutsu. He held back a lot." Jiraiya informs Tsunade, and he turns to me.

"Kid, you can use Fuinjutsu. I thought you Uchiha avoided any Non-Uchiha techniques. Most of the Uchihas I know about pride in their techniques and refuse to use any other techniques."

"I am close to Grandmaster level in Fuinjutsu and I don't discriminate between techniques as long as they aren't against my morals," I reply to Jiraiya as I walk towards the lab.

"Hold up, kid! You are close to the Grandmaster level! Even I am only a master. What kind of monster has that Minato raised?" Jiraiya complains as he follows me.

"Interesting, very interesting." Orochimaru licks his lips as he stares at Izuna with a hungry gaze.

A chill ran through my spine as I turn around to see a creepy expression on Orochimaru's face.
