The skirmish in Constantinople's arsenal was an event that occurred in 1511.
After a meeting between the Janissary Captain Tarik Barleti and the Ottoman Prince Ahmet, Prince Suleiman I suspected the captain to be conspiring against his uncle, speculating that the recent attack against him was his doing.
To prove his suspicions, Suleiman had the Assassin Ezio Auditore da Firenze learn what he could from Tarik and his latest activities by following him. Suleiman told Ezio to look for the captain at the Grand Bazaar, a popular location for the Janissaries and Tarik during their spare time.
Tailing Tarik
Ezio located Tarik and his men patrolling the Grand Bazaar. Following Tarik, Ezio silently observed the captain and his activities. After handling several commotions and businesses he had, Tarik met with some of his men, telling them to ensure he was not being followed, as the meeting he was attending was very important.
After passing through several shops and stalls in and outside of the Bazaar, Tarik met with more of his men, who notified him that one of his contacts, a man named Manuel, wanted to meet him by the city arsenal's gates. Somewhat indifferent, yet attentive all the same, Tarik left with his men for the arsenal.
At the Arsenal
The deal
Arriving at the arsenal, Ezio oversaw a meeting with Tarik and Manuel, who had brought money for the captain as part of an unknown deal. As one of Tarik's men counted the money, Manuel emphasized that Tarik was only to verify the amount, for it will stay with him until he had seen and assured the quality of Tarik's cargo.
After his men verified the amount of money, Tarik gave Manuel access to the arsenal, and would have his cargo delivered to him once he was satisfied. After assuring that Tarik's men were prepared to travel, Manuel and his men left Tarik's company, and went inside the arsenal.
Inciting a riot
- "If we inspire them to vent their anger, perhaps that will help our cause."
- ―Ezio to Yusuf[src]
Standing near the gates of the Arsenal was Yusuf Tazim. Ezio approached him and asked if they were there for the same reason. Yusuf informed him that some of his men reported that they had seen a shipment of weapons arrive in the arsenal. Ezio wanted to see the weapons himself, however the arsenal was too well defended for them to infiltrate, and they were short on men to help them invade it.
That moment, Ezio and Yusuf witnessed some Janissaries abuse a merchant near the gates. Ezio then devised a plan to utilize the civilians to push through the arsenal gates. Bribing some of the nearby heralds to speak of the Janissaries' tyranny, Ezio was able to incite the crowd against the guards, and prepared to tear down the gates.
The civilians rioted at the front of the gates while the guards and Janissaries attempted to settle them. Ezio made sure that the civilians were not detained, and managed to keep the guard at bay long enough for the civilians to break down the gates. The people rampaged through the arsenal, fighting the guards. Ezio joined the civilians in their entry, though broke away from them afterwards. He then scoured the arsenal for Manuel and his men.
Searching for Manuel
- "Twenty years in this city, living like a cipher... and finally, everything is falling into place."
- ―Manuel, about his plans.[src]
Infiltrating the arsenal, Ezio searched for Manuel and his men. He managed to locate them by a warehouse full of cargo, at the far side of the arsenal. There, Manuel, his accomplice, and several of his men, examined some of Tarik's supplies. After inspecting the equipment and a brief discussion mentioning the Palaiologos line, Manuel departed for his ship, along with his men.
After the guards left, Ezio checked the crates, and discovered them to hold firearms. Though before Ezio could do anything, some of the guards returned and spotted him. Quickly running from the area, Ezio managed to evade the guards, and despite their efforts to catch him, managed to escape the arsenal.
Aftermath
After the riot, the civilians returned to their regular routine, though the damage done in the riots remained. After recovering the third Masyaf Key, Ezio reported back to Suleiman about what he had learned.
