...
The attack from the hidden cloud
"Captain Dodai ! I have located the ship. It is sailing towards our direction at a moderate speed. They will reach this spot in about 20 minutes." Ramui, a kunoichi under Dodai, reported it to her superior.
"Good, follow the pre prepared plan. We don’t have any information which elite Jounin is leading the escort mission so we cannot be careless. According to our information there is one Elite jounin, one chunin and one genin doing the mission. So team 3 and team 2 should be enough to take care of them. Team one, under my command will stay hidden and show up only if something goes wrong.
"Remember no matter what we will have to complete this mission. If you fail to assassinate the Daimyo then we might have to sacrifice all of our lives to make this mission a success. So no matter what, do not fail." After hearing the command of Dodai, the entire group became even more motivated.
Their task was very simple. First they would stop the ship of the Daimyo. Then they would use the documents they have gotten from the Nobel of the land of lightning to get on board then they will tell the Konoha shinobi that they were the Messengers from the friend of the Daimyo and wanted to meet him. After showing the letter they will enter their entourage as the additional protection sent by the Nobel from the land of lightning.
Then once there infiltration was a success, they would simply assassinate the Daimyo while creating a ruckus while blaming and provoking the hidden leaf shinobi. Then they would simply eliminate them and return to their village with the body of the Daimyo and the hidden leaf shinobi. It will give them and excuse to start the war. The hidden leave had managed to suppress the hidden stone village within a couple of weeks after the war started. Since they captured their Jinjuriki, that hiddenstone didn’t want to abandon, the war has come to a halt even before it could turn into the third great shinobi war. It was the main reason why the Raikage had to take this step.
The entire cloud squad consisting of 12 elite jounins on separated into two parts. The first part consisting of 8 members remained on the small ship with the flag of the hidden cloud village while the rest of the four went away on a small boat to the distance to keep an eye on the operation. Around 20 minutes after they separated the ship of the Daimyo of the land of sea slowly approached the hidden cloud ship. Horoi, an elite Jounin came forward with a blue flag. The colour blue was the colour for peaceful negotiation. So the ship had no option but to stop a little far away from the Daimyo’s ship.
"State your purpose." Seeing the busty kunoichi in Jounin vest, Horoi sighed in relief. He couldn’t remember any information about the kunoichi from any Bingo book. That means the hidden leaf had taken the mission very lightly. It made their job very easy. If not for the requirement of the official seal from the Daimyo of the land of sea, then the hidden cloud team would have already attacked them.
"We are here to receive lord Daimyo from lord Daihatsu, the brother of the Daimyo of the land of lightning." Horoi shouted loudly as he showed the scroll in his hand.
