When Naruto's Shadow Clone eliminated most of the ninjas inside the base, the battle outside had already been completely over.
Facing Naruto's weird immune ninjutsu and unknown ninjutsu, they had no choice but to die with regret after fighting hard.
After fully controlling the situation on the ground, they dispersed again, blocking the forest entrance.
But an unexpected guest came.
Still unable to find Orochimaru hidden in Konoha Village, the Third Hokage finally came to find Danzo.
Although he really didn't want to look for him at this time, because it would be another battle of interests, but Danzo used to be Orochimaru's collaborator, so maybe he could know information that he didn't know.
After hearing the news of Orochimaru's return to the village yesterday, the Third Hokage has been wondering since when did the relationship between himself, the teacher, and his three outstanding disciples he personally taught become so alienated.
All three left Konoha, and one of them became a traitor.
"Is it really my fault?"
The Third Hokage asked himself in a puzzled way.
…
"Stop! What's the matter?"
The masked Shadow Clone looked at the stopped Anbu ninja and asked indifferently.
"According to the order of Third Hokage-sama, I came to inform Danzo-sama to go to the Hokage Building to discuss matters."
The Anbu explained the purpose of his coming as usual.
In Konoha, except for the Third Hokage assistant, the Third Hokage's fellow apprentice, no one can have their own armed forces.
So no one dares to come to the Root that can compete with Hokage Anbu, not to mention that even if it is Anbu, they can't easily get close to the base where the root is.
And only Danzo can do it.
This shows how much power the Third Hokage has given Danzo.
"Danzo-sama is not in the base right now, if you need anything, please go to the Shimura Residence.
"Is he at home… I understand."
The Anbu nodded and left.
"Looks like I need to inform the main body."
The Shadow Clone released himself with a bang as he spoke.
In the base, Naruto, who was observing the battle while blending into the darkness, received a message from the clone.
"An Anbu comes...but it's almost there."
At this time, there are about 30 or 40 ninjas belonging to the Root. Including the ninjas who have not returned from performing missions outside, the total number will not exceed 80.
This is also the limit that the Third Hokage can tolerate. It can't be said that the total number of the Hokage assistant root members is more than the Hokage Anbu, right?
The Anbu of Third Hokage is still less than 120 people, and this also includes the excellent Elite Jōnin such as Kakashi who has left Anbu and is engaged in other work.
Moreover, although the assessment standards of Anbu and Genbu(Root) are very high, in fact, the strength of ninjas who do some unimportant tasks, such as transmitting information, sorting information, and interpreting information, is basically around Chūnin.
In the original anime, during the Chūnin exam, it can be clearly found that Anko is also quite prestigious in Anbu, and people like Guy and Kakashi also have the ability to mobilize Anbu.
While Sasuke was hospitalized, the ten Anbu arranged by Kakashi were easily dealt with by Yakushi Kabuto alone. Judging from the fact that most of Anbu's so-called elite ninjas are still Chūnin.
The same is true for the roots. The only difference between them and Anbu is that they are more fearless about death.
Because of this, when Naruto used a thousand Shadow Clones to fight, these root ninjas were quickly reduced in an instant, leaving only a dozen or so around Danzo.
However, the strength of these ninjas is probably around Jōnin. After all, those who are too good have entered his Dark Space.
Swish Swish Swish…
Several sounds of breaking through the air sounded, and a group of people headed by Danzo looked up and looked around.
Above their heads, on the walls on the left and right sides, there were intruders in black robes, masks, and red eyes standing uniformly.
At this moment, the root ninjas who stayed behind were stared at with indifferent eyes by the intruders.
Even Yamanaka Fū and Aburame Torune, the two powerful men of Danzo, feel that they are going to die
"Who are you? I don't remember seeing you."
"Also, there are so many Sharingans...it should be Shadow Clones, after all, when Uchiha Itachi made a move, my people were watching outside."
Compared with his subordinates, Danzo is more sophisticated and will not be frightened by the scene in front of him.
Moreover, if there were so many powerful people in Uchiha's clan at that time, it would be impossible for him and Hiruzen to handle it easily, and even instigated Itachi and slaughtered his entire clan.
And Konoha would bear the name of Uchiha if they have that kind of power.
And it's even more unlikely to be the guy in the Akatsuki organization who knows time and space ninjutsu and wears a circle mask.
That one has only one Sharingan.
And these people in front of them...or Shadow Clones, except for a Sharingan and that strange left eye, which even Danzo has never seen.
It is also unknown whether there is a pupil technique similar to Sharingan hidden in it.
"Amazing! As expected of the Second Hokage student, a comrade in arms standing on the same front as the Third Hokage, and the guy man who 'almost'…
Naruto gestured to Danzo with two fingers,
"become the Third Hokage. Shimura Danzo~"
Naruto's very obvious provocation successfully aroused the latent anger in Danzo's heart.
'This bastard... Could it be that Uchiha really didn't die back then?'
Danzo was very aware of the teasing in the other party's words, and knew exactly what "almost" he was referring to.
Therefore, it can be judged that this masked person is most likely an old man of the same age as him.
Maybe even meet Uchiha Kagami.
Otherwise, no one would know that when their teacher, Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, choose the candidate for Third Hokage, it was because he hesitated for a moment, was preempted by Hiruzen, and lost the position of Hokage.
"So, you're here to avenge Uchiha? It wasn't me who did it, but your own people—Uchiha Itachi who did a good job."
Danzo said lightly.
"Oh, don't pretend, Danzo, you've always been the one behind Uchiha's Massacre, you're the one who snatched Shisui's eyes, you're the one who forced the Uchiha Clan, and you're the one who urged the Third Hokage to make a decision, how about it? Is Shisui's eyes still working?"
Naruto expressed his disdain for Danzo's very outrageous attitude.
You dare to lie without choking in front of me?
Listening to Naruto's words, Danzo was startled.
He didn't expect that the other party would know that he got Shisui's Kotoamatsukami.
'In this way, if I want to rely on the Kotoamatsukami to sneak attack, it would be useless. "
"Also, don't look at my Sharingan with that greedy one-eyed of yours, I'm not from the Uchiha clan, so you can rest assured."
Naruto said with a sudden smile.
"What!?"
This made Danzo even more worried! So where did this enemy come from?!
Danzo wanted to go bald, but he couldn't think of the identity Naruto might have.
He even wondered if the leader of the Akatsuki organization, who had the eyes of Sage of Six Path, had come to seek revenge on him.
Suddenly, Torune next to him tilted his head slightly. After Danzo saw it, he stretched out his finger and bit it fiercely.
"Summoning!"
Boom!
A huge white smoke appeared.
Roar!
Amidst the beast's roar, a Summoning beast as huge as an elephant appeared.
The legendary dream-eating beast can open its mouth wide and use Wind Style to blow objects in front of it and devour them.
Danzo once used it when he was fighting against Sasuke, but this thing seems to be afraid of fire.
Roar!
The Dream Tapir roared, opened its mouth wide, and suddenly a huge suction force appeared out of thin air, constantly pulling everything in front of the Dream Tapir.
"Tsk, tsk, what a comfortable wind~"
Naruto stood still and said relaxedly.
"what!?"
"How is that possible!?"
"Isn't it a Shadow Clone?"
"There seems to be no entity?"
Yamanaka Fu and Aburame Torune when they saw this scene in front of them, they also exclaimed.
They expected that even in the face of such a powerful engulfment of Wind Style, those Shadow Clones would lose more than half of them, if not all of them disappeared!
As a result, each of them seemed to be standing in another world, allowing the attack to pass through without any damage, even if the bricks under their feet were sucked away, it was still the same.
"Time and space ninjutsu... It's really troublesome, but how long can you maintain this state? Any ninjutsu has weaknesses."
Although Danzo was as surprised as his two subordinates in his heart, he still calmly analyzed Naruto's ninjutsu.
"As expected of the 'Darkness of the Ninja World'... No, the man behind the strongest Hokage is really well-informed."
Naruto clapped his hands.
Danzo's face turned completely dark hearing his sarcastic words.
He turned to Torune and asked.
"How is it? Did you find him?"
"No Chakra fluctuations.."
Torune shook his head.
Just now he has been controlling his own poisonous insect, constantly sensing the surrounding movement, hoping to sense the intruder's Chakra, so as to launch a sneak attack.
And Danzo used the Summoning technique to launch a large-scale Wind Style, also to force the other party to act, but it was useless!
This is the shortcoming of insufficient intelligence, because you don't know what ninjutsu the enemy will use, once you fight, you will immediately fall into a weak position.
"And you?"
Danzo then looked at Fu and asked. Because the Yamanaka family has the ability to perceive and can perceive everything around them.
"It's useless."
Unfortunately, facing Naruto's ability to transform into a shadow, he didn't find anything.
"Yes... are you looking for me?"
A hand suddenly was put on Torune's shoulder, and whispered behind his back.
Swish Swish Swish!
The moment Naruto spoke, Danzo and others immediately surrounded him and Torune.
And Torune, who had the opponent's hand on his shoulder, did not panic at all, but was even more pleasantly surprised.
Because of his special body, his body is covered with nano-scale poisonous insects. Once others touch his body, the poisonous insect will flow into the opponent's cells and destroy them.
Torune is one of the few people with special abilities in the Aburame clan.
His body hosts highly toxic nano-scale poisonous insects, and he has antibodies against toxins. If other people are infected with this toxin, they will die due to the destruction of cells in the body.
Moreover, this kind of poisonous insect can only exist in biological cells and reproduce by destroying the cells. Once the host dies, the insects also die together.
Therefore, Torune and Danzo, who are well aware of his ninjutsu characteristics, all looked at Naruto's hand with secret joy.
"I'm really looking for you, but you're done."
Torune made a seal with his finger, and was about to activate the secret technique,
Looking forward to his enemy screaming in pain before dying.
the result…
"There is no reaction, right? 'Strange, obviously, as long as it touches my body, poisonous insects will flow into the cells, causing poisoning…' Is that what you think?"
Naruto pretended to be Torune's tone and said with a smile.
"You, why?!"
Torune asked in bewilderment.
"..."
Naruto didn't explain, and threw the surprised Torune into Dark Space.
As for why he is fine, of course it's his system credit.
After all, his hamster treasure system can be used for everything.
[10,000 copies of nano poisonous insects can be upgraded to one poisonous insect clone (entity). ]
"Clone? Well, it's better than nothing."
"The first one…is solved."
Just when Naruto took Torune and sent him away, a shout sounded.
"Mind Body Switch Technique!!"
Fū seized the opportunity and suddenly launched ninjutsu, using the secret art of the Yamanaka family.
Mind Body Switch Technique, aim at the enemy, use the soul to concentrate the mind on one point, and release one's own spiritual power to capture and manipulate the body. If successful, it will determine the outcome.
It is a close-to-medium range auxiliary ninjutsu.
It can be said that the distance between Fu and Naruto at this moment is quite close, and even if he only needs to control the other party for a second, he believes that Danzo will take action immediately and kill this invader!
Yes, Danzo has already acted the moment he saw Fu launching ninjutsu, using super fast Body Flicker Technique to come to Naruto, wrapping his hands in Wind Style Chakra
A Kunai stabbed Naruto's chest hard.
Not even a second was wasted.
But what he didn't notice was that Naruto's right hand suddenly flashed with lightning.
Danzo succeeded, but also failed.
Successfully, he stabs Naruto.
What failed was that he, like all the ninjas who fought against Naruto, was tricked by the so-called Fire Style clone.
Danzo looked at the miserable body, with little red flames lit up, and in the corner of his eye, thunder appeared.
Ziii!
Danzo's chest is pierced hard by Naruto with Raikiri.
Bang!
With a flick of his right hand, Naruto threw Danzo's body in front of the root ninjas who were just watching.
"Da—Danzo-sama!?"
"What happened?"
"Danzo-sama, dead?"
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it!!"
"What's the rush, he is not dead yet."
Naruto didn't believe that Danzo, a guy who was so desperate for his life, would be killed by him so easily.
Therefore, one of the Sharingan on his right hand should have closed at this time.
…
