The Perfect Shinobi (Part 3)

Failure.

A week before the Rain village was attacked.

Zetzu was standing on a branch. The branch was overlooking a large building. The building didn't have any windows. It looked unused, but it wasn't. That's why Zetzu was here. In the building the five Daimyos of the most powerful countries in the world were hidden. They were originally in a small town in the land of Iron, but they were found and relocated. Now they were hidden in an old Senju hideout in the land of Fire. They were successfully hidden for six months. Until Zetzu found them.

Zetzu had his clones searching the lands for months. Now he is almost out of them. Ever since the Mountain's Graveyard was destroyed, he has been spread thin. Most of his clones were used to attack the Leaf in the last assault. Now he had not even enough for a company let alone an army.

Madara wanted a backup plan. If he is wrong and the Hokage doesn't attack the Rain, then he wanted another option to draw the out. If the Daimyo were captured, then the power vacuum in the nations would cause distress. The Allied Shinobi forces would fall apart and the Jinchuriki would be easier to capture. If this plan worked, then Madara himself would attack the Leaf after the nations fall apart. Then their plans would be accomplished. All Zetzu had to do was complete his mission.

Inside the building five men with formal attire sat playing cards. Each of them had a different symbol on their hats. They were the five Daimyo, and they looked extremely bored. They had been forced to hide for almost a year now. They had become friends over the past year though. It turns out they were all very similar.

Zetzu sunk into the tree he was standing on. His mission has started. He peaked his head out of the ground when he was in the room with the Daimyo. He was in the corner of the room, so no one saw him. He fully came out of the ground. He couldn't sense Mei nearby, so he was safe to begin.

Zetzu took one step towards the Daimyo and a foot hit him in the head. Zetzu was hit so hard he went flying through the concrete wall. The Daimyo looked up with their eyebrows raised but didn't react. They trusted the Mizukage. Zetzu ended up landing outside the hideout. He stood up and saw Mei walking through the hole in the wall.

"How did I. Not sense you." Zetzu's halves say.

Mei peels of a seal placed on her arm. "A gift from the Hokage." Mei says.

"So, I have to kill you first. To get to the feudal Lords." Zetzu says.

"You have to kill us." Mei says. About fifteen Anbu from different villages appear next to Mei. All of them prepared for a fight.

Black Zetzu laughs. He then slams his hands against the ground. Giant wood tentacles burst through the ground. The wood tentacles start to lash around attacking the Anbu. The Anbu start to cut off some of the tentacles causing the ground to shake from the impact.

The Anbu use explosive tags on the center of the wood tentacle. An explosion rings out and wood pieces are sent in every direction. Mei does a singular hand seal and says, "Lava Style: Lava Bomb." A massive meteor like ball of lava hits the wood. The wood is gone and Zetzu tries to retreat.

Mei dissolves into lava. The real Mei appears in front of Zetzu. When Zetzu tries to sink into the ground Mei grabs him by the throat and yanks him up. Zetzu tries to use the plant like tentacles on his body to stab Mei, but two Anbu cut them off before he could.

Zetzu screams in pain. Then Mei uses her jutsu. She makes a singular hand seal with her free hand. "Lava Style: Burning Organs." Her fingers shoot lava into Zetzu's throat and neck. His body starts to morph and turn red until nothing is left of him besides a melted black and white face.
