"Next item, how to move the entire population of Konoha without them panicking."
They looked at me like I was crazy, at this rate I wouldn't be surprised if I was
~3rd person~
The office was silent, which was good, each of the four men needing to gather their thoughts on this matter
'If we were to hold up in the mountains the creature will surely find us, we have to hide in a place where it wouldn't get to. Think, Minato, think! Does the beast have any previous enemies or hated rivals maybe-' and that was when it all clicked for our blond Kage
~1st person-Yondaime~
"I got it!" I yelled as I shot out of my chair, knocking Sarutobi and Danzo out of their seats.
"Boy watch it! You may be a Kage but elders deserve respect!" that was Danzo
"Minato! I may be the the so called "God of Shinobi" but I can still have a heart attack!" And there goes Sarutobi
Shikaku, the only one who was able to remain in his chair during my outburst, spoke up
"Well Minato, what is it?"
"Yes boy, speak up!" Ahhh there's Danzo
"Whatever it is, it'd better be worth the impending heart attack, I'm getting to old for this" stated the aging Sarutobi
"It's simple, Hashirama, our Shodai Hokage was able to control the Kyuubi-"
"Yes, yes, yes, boy" stated Danzo waving his hand as if there was nothing special about this "we all know his story; fighting Madera and wresting the Kyuubi from his control, and forming the trees around Konoha with his chakra. So tell me how does the knowledge of our late Shodai help against the Kyuubi" finished Danzo
I smirked, the old coot didn't even think about what he had said.
"Danzo correct me if I'm wrong, but the Kyuubi, whether a demon or a force of nature is made of chakra, correct?"
"Yes of course all Biju, whether demon or nature are purely chakra." stated Danzo as if it meant nothing
"Danzo our chakra can remember the nature of certain jutsu, like a muscle memory, correct?" I felt as if I was on a roll here the aged advisor was about to be stumped
"Though it's mostly our Jonin who have been able to do this, yes it can be done."
"If I may Minato," stated Sarutobi "I fail to see how these questions are helping us."
"One second Sarutobi" I stated
"Let us finish Sarutobi" Danzo spouts off
I was so close to beating Danzo with this, I was near giddy
"So Danzo, if the Kyuubi was controlled by Hashirama's chakra" I spoke smoothly "and the trees surrounding Konoha are made from his chakra, then who's to say that the Kyuubi can't have it's senses fooled by his chakra due to its previous exposure?"
Sarutobi and Danzo nearly gaped, they hadn't thought of this, as it was the craziest idea they had ever heard.
"So your saying we sit and wait for it to attack?" Asked Danzo waiting on the answer that he wanted so bad at this point
"No, I say that we convince the village to go where the trees are the densest, while all ninjas suppress their chakra, making it less discernable to the Kyuubi. This way it will avoid the bulk of our forces" I said
'And Danzo, you just got beat at your own game' I thought with a smirk
"Be that as it may Hokage-sama," The previously silent Nara stated "the densest area of the forest is the forest of death, which I don't recommend visiting."
"Well Shikaku, the easiest solution for the civilians is to move them into the forest under a genjutsu and have any ninja chunnin and up defend them from any predators, while genin build temporary housing for about a day or 2. How ever since most of Konoha won't be up for the idea of a village wide picnic in the forest we'll need to declare a state of emergency" I finished, this wasn't something that I wanted to do, it was something that needed to be done.
Danzo, Sarutobi, and Shikaku looked at me, of course they would a state of emergency hadn't been called since the first shinobi war, it gave the Hokage the entire jurisdiction of the village, it was no longer a democracy, it was a dictatorship.
"Hokage-sama doesn't this seem a bit to extreme, surely we could convince them another wa-"
"It won't work Shikaku" I said as I interrupted the Nara "the entire village wold never buy the idea of a friendly picnic for the entire village being hosted in the middle of the forest"
"Gather the councils," I started "I will need to inform them, tell them that if they are late they shall be stripped of their status and replaced, this goes for those of the shinobi council as well!" I finished, shouting at the ANBU in my office
In about an hour the Shinobi and Civilian council had gathered, many muttering about what this could be about.
"This is insane why would he do this!" Yelled one of the merchants on the civilian side of the council
"Hush up!" Nearly shouted Hiashi "Our Kage called us here, he wouldn't do so if it wasn't a matter of utmost importance, but even beyond that he is our Kage and even if it was just to sit around and have tea you would do so."
'Ah good old Hiashi' I thought 'Well time to get out there.'
"He is right, this concerns the safety of the village, however the civilian side isn't to know about the dire circumstances regarding the current decision" I began
"And what decision would that be, Hokage-sama?" Stated Hiiro, one of the more level headed men on the council
"I have declared a state of emergency for Konoha."
'As a good Kage the shocked looks on their faces shouldn't make me smile, but this is funny'
Hiashi looked neutral, like a Hyuuga must always look, however you could see the panic in his eyes.
Tsume was more or less frantic, not knowing what could have cause this extreme condition.
Choza was trying to remain calm, yet failing.
Inochi was for the most part trying to imagine what could be going on in my head at this point.
Shibi was calm, which still baffled me as to how he remained so calm
Fugaku had the most extreme reaction, he was furious that I would have total control of the village until I decided that I no longer wanted it, however he remained silent.
Sarutobi, Danzo, and Shikaku reamined impassive being informed of this earlier
"Now that that is settled, Civilian council you are dismissed"
In 10 seconds every civilian council member was out, not wanting to see the reaction of the irate Uchiha clan head.
Once the last member was out, Fugaku exploded
"You have no right to call for such an emergency!" screamed Fugaku "there is no impending doom there is no reason for a dictatorship when there isn't a war going on!"
"Fugaku" Shibi began "Hokage-sama said there were dire circumstances, why not wait until you find out about these circumstances then react?"
"Fugaku, before you go on another rant, let me explain these circumstances."
The further I got into my explanation the less angry Fugaku seemed to get as he became more and more worried about the impending doom we were about to face. Once I had finished there wasn't a stoic face on anyone, not even Hiashi or Shibi, both adopting a grim look.
"Hokage-sama, I believe the best choice would be to inform only chunnin and up of these circumstances, and have those proficient in genjutsu do the casting in the forest and have a squad of ANBU on the lookout for anything that the chunnin can't handle."
"Done and done Shibi, now I want you all to begin evacuating your estates immediately, and have all able bodied personnel to start building temporary housing for your clan and the civilians that will arrive tomorrow, Kakashi!"
"Hai?"
"Get your fastest team and start recalling every ninja on a mission in Hi no Kuni, I want you back in under 48 hours with them got it?"
"Hai sensei!" Kakashi yelled as he took off like a kunai at a practive target
'Evacuation has begun' I thought as the shinobi council members began to leave 'it'll take time but we must make sure the fewest number of lives are taken.'

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii I'm back!
this is a bit longer, to make up for the week I was out, I only updated so fast because I wanted to get a portion off the ground before the camp I had to go to began.
Now there may be some spelling errors, but I need to figure out how to use the beta system so that may take a bit
