Konoha Council Chambers
Hiruzen Sarutobi stormed into the room, flanked by masked ANBU a grim look on his face. Upon his entrance, the chattering councilors fell silent. He reached his seat and faced the council.
"Why have you called us here?" demanded a civilian, "You claimed that there was a danger to the village!"
Glaring at the people in the room he spoke quietly but his voice carried around the room. "Earlier today someone in this room reassigned the ANBU I had guarding Uzumaki Naruto, in an attempt to have him assassinated."
"So?" another of the civilians interrupted "ANBU have more important things to do than keep that demon alive! And how is that a major threat to us?"
Hiruzen shifted his baleful gaze to the civilian, silencing him. "The threat is that the assassination successful. Between 8 and 10 hours ago, Uzumaki Naruto was killed and is corpse tossed into was removed from the village. We have been unable to find it and by now it's too late to do anything even if we did."
"How is the demon's death a threat to the village?" asked Koharu, "Wouldn't that make us safer?"
"Tell me," said Hiruzen, "What are the requirements for a container of the 4 tails and up?"
"They must be bound in a living container," replied Shikaku, "Otherwise they're Yoki will overpower the container and dissolve it within hours."
"And what are the requirements for the 7 tails and up?"
"They must be sealed in a human, to combat the malice of the Yoki, and the 9 tails must be sealed in an Uzumaki, so that their bloodline can counteract the toxins of the Kyuubi."
"And tell me;" queried Hiruzen, surveying the crowd, "is a corpse a living human with the Uzumaki Bloodline?"
Upon hearing this several of the Shinobi blanched, and Hiruzen continued; "Now you see what the threat is. Within a few hours, the Kyuubi will be freed and most likely be coming to Konoha to exact revenge for its repeated defeats."
"How is that a problem?" asked one of the civilians, "If it comes we'll just seal it again."
"Yes we could do that," replied the Sandaime, "Except for one tiny detail. No one here knows a sealing technique powerful enough to contain the beast, and incase you forgot, the Uzumaki bloodline was wiped out earlier today. No, our only option is to send most of our people away before it breaks free and makes it he-"
He was interrupted when the doors of the room where blown in by an explosion if crimson Yoki, and a tall figure wearing read hid armor and flanked by 2 large kitsunes walked in. The figure looked up at Hiruzen and smirked "Too Late!"
AN: This is a plot bunny that's been running around in my head since I read about them needing to reseal the Kyuubi when Mito Uzumaki got too old.
