Kozai was examining yet another shipment, though this one was not his own. He'd intercepted something going to the Council, and wanted to give it a quick once over. After all, things this heavy didn't usually pass through the doors of that vaunted institution. As it turned out, his instincts had proven correct as usual. While he himself was in his chambers and facilities below the archives, he had his Preta Path above, moving her around and having her inspect the shipment. As it turned out, it was full of some kind of suppression gear. Rubber bullets and canisters of tear gas? Fascinating. Kozai was thinking of acquiring some himself, but hadn't committed to it yet.
It seemed that the council was anticipating some kind of domestic conflict. Nonlethal weaponry, thank goodness. In all likelihood there would be all kinds of conflict ahead, though. The council might not have been shinobi, but they weren't stupid. If they were spending this much money and effort on arming whatever police force or militia they had in store, there was definitely a storm on the horizon, and he needed to make adjustments as well. Hell, he might be able to catch the council off guard with the left hook he had planned.
He had his Preta Path repack the boxes and send them on their way, with no trace of his tampering anywhere. His plan still had plenty of room for external factors like this, but he couldn't allow them to pile up.
