"Daring to use kunai for an ambush against the Uchiha clan, you must be one of Danzo's underlings," Fang Mo said, revealing a terrifying smile.
Although the person's face was masked, it was clear they were not an ANBU member. After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen was known to be timid. If he hadn't been scared to the point of wetting his pants, he might have repeatedly cheered himself up with encouraging words.
In the entire Naruto world, there's no one more wasteful, more wretched in death, and possessing a dumber mind than Danzo Shimura, the King of Scapegoats.
In the original story, he even did something as foolish as stabbing his own subordinate, Shisui, with a kunai. Honestly... let's not talk about Naruto; even an average modern person with a sound mind wouldn't do something as idiotic.
Fang Mo truly felt that Danzo deserved to die.
Other villains might be attractive or charismatic, but Danzo was neither human nor ghost; no one would ever like him.
To be frank, in all sorts of Naruto fanfiction, there are hardly any where he becomes the protagonist, not even in NTR (netorare) stories.
Take a moment to think about just how unpopular he is.
Even the Fourth Raikage is more popular than him.
"Fire Style, Fire..."
While Fang Mo was speaking, the nearby ninja had also finished forming hand seals, preparing to unleash their ninjutsu.
But before the ninja could breathe out the flames, they suddenly felt a coolness on their neck. In the next second, they saw Fang Mo grabbing their hair. "The crematorium just called me, asking how well-done you want your mom?"
The ninja using Fire Style was taken aback.
However, before they could make sense of the situation, an unprecedented feeling of weakness swept through their brain, and their consciousness fell into darkness.
After dealing with the Fire Style ninja, Fang Mo once again used his Body Flicker technique. In a dark flash, he appeared in front of another ninja who had just finished forming hand seals, preparing to use Wind Style: "Wind Style..."
"The wind is quite noisy today..."
Seeing this, Fang Mo smiled and, in the next second, clenched his five fingers into a knife shape, piercing through the opponent's mask and stabbing into their mouth. Then he bent his fingers downward, tearing off the entire lower jaw, along with the neck, chest muscles, and skin. Blood sprayed everywhere.
"Just wondering if your coffin will have proper ventilation."
As he spoke, Fang Mo casually threw the corpse to the side.
"…"
The two remaining ninjas observed the scene and fell silent for a moment.
It seemed that the opponent was a skilled warrior cultivated by Root, someone similar to a Dead Man, fearless of death. After a brief pause, he continued his assault on Fang Mo.
The ninja who had previously stabbed Fang Mo with a kunai charged towards him. Then, with a hand seal, he started emitting smoke and suddenly opened his clothes, revealing numerous exploding tags that emitted a blinding light.
"Wow, a self-destructing mini-truck!"
Seeing this, Fang Mo chuckled and extended his hand forward.
A greenish-blue twilight thorn flew out, wrapping the opponent into a dense thorn ball. Then, with a loud bang, black smoke emerged from the gaps in the thorns.
The exploding tags not only failed to harm the thorns but also caused them to grow a bit more.
"All right, it's your turn now."
After dealing with the three Root shinobi, Fang Mo turned his attention to the nearby Root shinobi controlling insects.
The opponent seemed a bit anxious and had indeed used Parasitic Destruction Insects on Fang Mo. These insects crawled on him, but the problem was they couldn't absorb chakra at all.
As for physical attacks, they were even more futile.
The teeth of these Parasitic Destruction Insects couldn't pierce the opponent's skin.
So, how could he fight back? He was just an ordinary member of the Aburame clan, not Aburame Torune. The Parasitic Destruction Insects were poisonous, but they were probably of no use against the opponent.
And indeed, Fang Mo didn't even need to come close to attack him directly. He simply snapped his fingers, and an unprecedented extreme cold swept in. All the insects in mid-air, including the Root shinobi controlling them, were frozen into powder.
After dealing with these four shinobi, Fang Mo collected some DNA samples and continued on his way happily, looking for Orochimaru.
Currently, Orochimaru was one of the candidates for the Fourth Hokage, so he was busy campaigning.
As for his forbidden laboratories and such, they were not abandoned but handled by one of his shadow clones. It had to be said that he was a master of time management, much better than Hiruzen Sarutobi in this regard.
Fang Mo casually inquired with the people around and found Orochimaru campaigning at the Hyuga clan. He seemed to be trying to gain support from the Hyuga clan, taking the opposite approach to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Without waiting for the Hyuga clan members to announce his arrival, Fang Mo walked in.
Soon, he saw Orochimaru, who was currently having tea and chatting with the Hyuga clan head and Hizashi Hyuga. However, upon seeing Fang Mo covered in blood, the three of them immediately stood up.
After all, an Uchiha ancestor covered in blood, exuding a murderous aura, walking towards them was truly terrifying for Hiashi and Hizashi. They subconsciously activated their Byakugan, but to their horror, they couldn't see anything. Except for a faint outline, they couldn't see any internal organs, meridians, or chakra structure. This frightened them even more, thinking that Fang Mo had mastered some method to shield the Byakugan, and their faces turned pale.
Unlike Hiashi and Hizashi, Orochimaru remained relatively calm.
He knew that Fang Mo's target was Kaguya Otsutsuki, and for this plan, he was willing to dominate the entire ninja world. It would be impossible for someone with such foresight and profound knowledge to suddenly go berserk in broad daylight and kill the Hyuga clan.
"Lord Madara, what's the situation?" Orochimaru asked directly.
"I'll give you ten minutes," Fang Mo replied without hesitation, disregarding the presence of Hiashi and Hiashi. "Either bring Danzo to meet me, or tell me where he is. Otherwise, after ten minutes, I will activate the Flower Tree World and turn these ants into true 'Root' members."
Hearing this, Orochimaru hesitated for a moment.
He wasn't a fool. He knew Danzo's personality well. Obviously, Fang Mo wanted him dead this time. The Flower Tree World was just a pretext, and this was probably a message to be conveyed to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Indeed, Orochimaru, with his high intelligence, tended to overanalyze situations. According to his thinking, Fang Mo had probably realized that Danzo was becoming an unstable factor. Danzo was selfish and working against Fang Mo and Orochimaru's great ideals, so he no longer had any reason to exist. Now that Danzo had walked right into the trap himself, Fang Mo was just taking advantage of the situation and getting rid of the trouble.
Although Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted to protect his old friend, he probably wouldn't dare to provoke Madara Uchiha's wrath. If Fang Mo really activated the Flower Tree World or caused chaos, Hiruzen wouldn't be able to bear the consequences. Therefore, Orochimaru decided to make concessions, just like before.
So, with Orochimaru's one step, Danzo was probably doomed.
Haha... Truly worthy of Madara Uchiha, the man aspiring to reach the far shore of the stars. He had only arrived in Konoha for the second day and already wanted to kill one of the Hokage's close aides. His charisma, which surpassed all others, was truly fascinating.
With these thoughts, a smile appeared on Orochimaru's lips, and he Body Flickered away.
