'Probably setup by Uzumaki's before they all fell' Jun thought was he walked to wards the podium. The used his chakra sensing at max but couldn't sense anything wrong. However he could see a kind of black flame burning beneath the masks.

He moved towards one of them with his Sage mode sensing changes in environment around him at max. When he had almost touched one, he could sense the black flame blazing slightly. 'Maybe its some kind of a trap, if I pick wrong mask then these flames will attack me' Jun mused.

Normally one would not wanna mess with such protected objects. However Jun was curious about what was being kept under so much protection. He roamed his hands over each of the masks, all giving same reaction. Finally he swept his gaze to the top row. Unfortunately due to size of the wall, it was above his reach. Usually he would have just attacked with one of the plant vines and got what he needs, but these masks were dangerous and maybe had sensors or something against Jutsu that may touch them. Moreover he didn't know if they would react to plant the same way they would to a human hand. After a lot of thought he finally figured a way. Instead of applying Jutsu to his surrounding, he did it to himself. He remembered Naruto transformation Jutsu from original series. Due to his dense chakra, the transformation Jutsu had become solid true transformation whenever he applied it. He decided to use that idea. Using Nature Chakra he directed a lot of it to his Transformation Jutsu. After a lot of time he finally gathered enough to get a solid transformation. He transformed to a supposedly adult form of himself, taller better physique and long hair for some reason. He then finally figured out that the Mask on the third from right on the top row was the only special one among them all. He took it down slowly but no trap a.s.saulted him. After sighing softly he backed away slowly until he was outside the shrine. After coming out he observed the mask using his skill.

[Mask Of Oni : ?????

??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??]

'What the h.e.l.l?! Just what is this?' Jun

[Extremely Risky Object made by imbuing some of the world's laws. Potent and Dangerous powers maybe summoned on using the mask. Recommended to keep it stored away in Key Section of Inventory]

'Key Section?' Jun

[Part of inventory under High Security. Even user would be prompted before retrieving any object from that section. Powerful or important objects can be stored there for safety.]

'That is OK. But why cant I view the information related to the mask.'

[Powerful artifacts need Observation skill at max before being able to observe. User is simple not proficient enough with his skills right now.]

'Well , fine.' Jun replied and stored the Mask in his key Inventory as suggested. He decided to rest in that building for the night since he didn't want to risk being discovered by Rokkaku. He sat in meditation to spend the night.

In Hokage's Mansion

An ANBU appeared outside Hokage's room and knocked since it was pretty late at night . The third came out wearing casual robes, his wizened face showing his age which was usually hidden in the grandeur of the Hokage Attire.

"What happened Inu ? So late at night ?" The Third

"Apologies, but it was informed that intense chakra fluctuations have been sensed at Konoha borders. Preliminary investigation shows a fight happened between a two ninjas maybe, lots of devastation at the site of investigation. However it seems that the fight never reached conclusion and they both fled somewhere. Tracks of one are traceable until out of fire country, but other disappears abruptly." Inu

"Hmm, cant be spies. They wont be so stupid, or maybe a distraction?" Third placed his chin on his hand "You sure the second one didn't leave any tracks?" Third

"Yes, The second disappeared abruptly from the location. Some kind of long distance movement ? or hiding technique like that of Rock s.h.i.+n.o.bi?" Inu theorized

Rock s.h.i.+n.o.bi's hiding technique was very famous for being one of the best for erasing tracks. However there was something that didn't fit well.

"What kind of elemental Damage are talking about?" Third

"None Actually. None of the elemental Jutsu were used. Either to hide tracks or maybe they don't specialize in elemental styles ?" Inu

"Hmm. No element.. wait a moment. How was the state of forest? " Third

"Forest … ahh , do you mean he is coming back?" Inu

"Exactly. No reason for both partic.i.p.ant of such an intense fight to not use elemental styles. He is coming back, must have encountered some trouble and was forced to fight. Keep an eye out for him."

"Yes Hokage-Sama."

---------------------------------------------------

Jun woke up from his meditation, all his lost chakra fully regenerated even having some benefits and growth from the intense fight yesterday. His skills seemed to have grown a lot. He finally could see almost peak of his chakra control due to the continuous use of his s.p.a.ce style. He checked and on seeing that No sign of Rokkaku was there, So he could finally leave for Konoha now.

After half a day he reached Konoha finally. Just about as he was going to step into the village, an ANBU appeared beside him. Jun looked towards him and recognized who it was.

"Ah, Inu-San, How come you are here?" Jun

"Hokage's orders. You have been summoned." Inu

"Ah Lucky, I also need some thing to be delivered. Lets go then Inu-San." Jun said as he grabbed Inu's sleeve. Before Inu's Baffled eyes they both teleported.
