'Sin-chan! Is there a way to wake them up?' Ayaka communicates with the Sin Grimoire.
Hmm
"So, there is some sort of device which is behind this genjutsu. If I destroy that device, then I can wake them all up." Ayaka confirms with the Sin.
"But where could that device be?" She looks around in search of the hidden device while attempting to wake up her friends.
Swoosh swoosh
Suddenly,
Multiple rogue shinobis surround her with crazed expressions. Ayaka notices their expression.
"They are enemy shinobis, but what's with their strange eyes?"
There is a swirling red pattern in the rogue shinobi eyes with multiple concentric rings. Some saliva leaks from their mouth as they approach Ayaka.
"These people they are"
Ayaka takes out her kunai and dashes toward the rogue shinobis. She makes some hand signs.
"Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Jutsu,"
Ayaka spews out a gigantic fire dragon towards the rogue shinobis. Some of the rogue shinobis make some hand signs and spew out multiple water jutsus to extinguish the fire.
"What? They can still respond to my attack!" Ayaka is startled to see them attack.
Shiing
Ayaka's eyes turn into Sharingan and she engages in close combat with the rogue shinobis.
Ding Ding
The sound of metals clashing against each other rings in the surroundings as Ayaka releases a barrage of kunais and shurikens toward them.
"Shuriken shadow clone jutsu,"
Ayaka wields her tanto and skillfully deflects multiple attacks from her attackers. Her blade weaves among the rogue shinobis as she looks for an opening and decapitates the enemy shinobis. Her sword moves resemble a dance a dance of death.
'Uchiha Style: Dance of the Moon Halo,'
Obito and Kabuto stare at the battle in amazement.
"That's the younger sister of Reaper for you!" Kabuto murmurs at the scene of the battle.
"This is problematic! Since it's incomplete, this genjutsu has a weakness. It requires a medium and large amount of chakra to maintain it. If the medium shatters or the chakra runs out, the genjutsu will be broken. We have to capture the Nine-tails before that happens. However, since this girl isn't affected by the genjutsu, I am afraid she might break the medium and free these people."
Obito glares at Ayaka.
"This genjutsu has a powerful side-effect. If a person dies within the genjutsu, then he will die for real. Since it has come to this, I will accelerate the time flow in the genjutsu by a little."
Obito makes some hand signs and taps the crystal orb in his hand. The crystal orb glows brightly.

"A few days have passed by, but everything seems normal!" Naruto opens his eyes and yawns.
"Naruto-Kun! Karin-chan! It's time for breakfast! Your dad has already left for his work." Kushina's voice echoes in the house.
Aww
Naruto yawns and enters the washroom to wash his face. He brushes his teeth and stares at his reflection in the mirror.
"These past few days, I have done several B-rank and A-rank missions with Kakashi Sensei, Sasuke, and Sakura. In my spare time, I spar with Sasuke to hone my skills. Shisui and Itachi Nii-san helps me too. Izuna Nii-san has yet to return since he went missing two and a half years ago. Mei-san and Ayaka-chan miss him a lot!"
Naruto gargles and spits out the water.
"Wait! Ayaka-chan! Who is Ayaka-chan?" Naruto pauses as he attempts to recall Ayaka's face.
Some fuzzy memories of Ayaka slowly drift into his memories.
"Ayaka Ayaka Ayaka is the younger sister of Izuna Nii-san."
Crack
Multiple cracks appear in the mirror in front of him.
"Where is Ayaka-chan?"
Swoosh
Naruto ignores the mirror. He opens the window and jumps out.
"She should be in the Uchiha clan compounds."
"NARUTO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Kushina's angry voice echoes through the streets of Konoha.
"I am sorry, mom! I will be back in a short while."
Naruto flickers towards the Uchiha clan compounds. He knocks on the door of Akira and Aiko's house.
A few seconds later,
Aiko opens the door.
"Ara, Naruto-Kun! What's the matter? You are up so early in the morning. And these clothes! Did you wake up in a hurry?" Aiko points towards Naruto's loose pajamas.
"Hehe It's nothing like that." Naruto scratches his head in embarrassment.
"I am here to look for Ayaka. Is she at home?" Naruto enquires.
"Ayaka?!" Aiko tilts her head in confusion.
"Who is Ayaka?" Question marks appear on Aiko's face.
"Ayaka, your younger daughter, and Izuna Nii-san's younger sister. The princess and the colorful flower of the Uchiha clan!" Naruto uses several of Ayaka's identities to inquire about her whereabouts.
"Oh! There was such a girl in the Uchiha clan? Why haven't I heard about her?" Confusion appears on Aiko's face.
Suddenly,
BOOM
A gigantic explosion occurs on the outskirts of Konoha. The explosion blows away a major part of the outer wall of Konoha.
"What what's going on? What's the deal with that explosion?" Several people jump onto the rooftops to look in the direction of the explosion.
Soon
A blaring emergency horn rings across the streets of Konoha. Multiple anbus and police officer flickers through the streets.
"This is an emergency! The outer wall of Konoha has been breached by enemies. All chunnins and jounins gather at the entrance of Konoha within the next fifteen minutes. Others, please evacuate to the emergency shelter. This is not a drill. I repeat this is an emergency!" Several anbu members announce the news across the streets.
"That place! It's closer to the Uzumaki clan compounds. Mom, Karin!"
Naruto's eyes narrow at the sight.
"I have to protect them." He swiftly flickers in their direction. Naruto quickly reaches the Uzumaki clan compounds.
Ding ding
Multiple sounds of metals clashing metal rings in the surroundings.
"Mom! Karin!" Naruto quickly enters the compounds and notices Karin and Kushina fighting against shinobis in black clothes.
Kushina is holding a pan in her hand. She deflects a kunai with her pan and bashes the head of an enemy shinobi with it. Karin is holding a mop in her hands. She plunges the metal end of the mop into a shinobis' guts.
"Don't underestimate us ladies, you shithead!" She yells while beating them with her mop.
"Mom, Karin!" Naruto heaves a sigh of relief.
Swish
A kunai flicks past his head. Naruto swiftly dodges the surprise attack.
"That was close!" He turns in the direction of the enemy shinobis and notices the bloodlust in their eyes.
"They want to kill us!"
Swoosh
Naruto swiftly dodges the attacks of nearby enemy shinobis. He infuses some chakra into his fist and punches one of the enemy shinobis.
Snap Crack
Naruto's punch breaks the spine of the enemy shinobi in a single hit.
'Looks like I used too much force in that attack.'
"Mom, Karin! Evacuate to the shelter. I will deal with them."
"Alright!" Both women nod at him. Naruto clutches the arm of a shinobi who sneak attacked him with a blade.
Snap
He breaks the arm and grabs the blade with his other hand.
"I am not as proficient in using blades as Sasuke, but I practice a little."
Naruto wields the blade and swings it horizontally while infusing some wind chakra in it.
"Kenjutsu: Crescent Slash of Northern Wind,"
He releases a powerful wind blade from the sword. The wind blade slices through the enemy shinobis charging at him.
"Strange! Why isn't the reinforcement here yet?" Naruto continues to engage with the enemy shinobis while leading them away from the Uzumaki clan compounds.
'There are lots of strange things happening today? First, no one recalls Ayaka's name. Second, what happened to the barrier Izuna Nii-san erected to protect Konoha? Even Akatsuki members couldn't make a dent in it. Then how come these people bypass the barrier and blow away the outer walls of Konoha? Also'
Naruto stares at the eyes of the shinobis attacking him.
' what's the deal with these people? Are they possessed or something? Why they are attacking me in such a frenzy?' Naruto notices the pitch-black eyes of the shinobis attacking him.
"Many things aren't making sense today. For now, I will lead them away from the village." Naruto continues to whittle down the numbers of enemy shinobis while dashing towards the entrance of Konoha.
