The army split into four groups and began advancing. The vast majority of the shinobi had been assigned to guard the village's safety, while only Uchiha Zhan led the chunin and jonin from the major clans in an assault on the Hokage Building.
Perhaps the weather had been like this all along, but the sky suddenly darkened. Many villagers had no idea what was about to happen, so they looked up and saw dark clouds blanketing the sky, rapidly growing darker. It looked like the rain would be heavy.
Uchiha Zhan and the others swiftly arrived before the Hokage Building, and the Anbu shinobi stationed there immediately rushed forward.
"Who are you people? This is the Hokage's place of work. Unauthorized personnel are forbidden from entering," an Anbu shinobi said sternly.
Uchiha Zhan sneered, swung the Gunbai in his right hand, and smacked him with it. In an instant, the Anbu shinobi turned into a shooting star and flew into the distance. (Goodbye, Mom, tonight I set sail~)
The first Anbu shinobi to step forward had been sent flying, making the other Anbu tense up. They looked at Uchiha Zhan, fear apparent in their eyes.
"Y-You people, don't come any closer!" Another Anbu shinobi spoke up, but a figure flashed past him, wielding a tachi and pinning his neck to the ground.
With Uchiha Zhan setting the example, the shinobi behind him now knew just how hard they needed to hit!
In an instant, both sides went all out. For a time, they were evenly matched, while Uchiha Zhan's role was to swing the Uchiha Gunbai whenever the two sides reached a stalemate.
He sent one Anbu shinobi after another flying. As for whether they survived, that depended on their own luck.
