From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 189: The truth comes out, it was all my doing.

Let's rewind to a few hours ago.

Danzo completely broke down after learning that Uchiha Munekichi had been recognized as the Fourth Hokage.

In a fit of rage, she smashed everything in sight, and her excessive emotional outburst caused a minor physical accident.

Looking into the mirror, her once beautiful face was now covered in wrinkles, and her long black hair seemed to have come alive, swaying with its own consciousness. Eye-like things grew from the ends of her hair, reflected on the broken mirror, staring at her eerily.

"Ahhhh——!"

Danzo was both terrified and furious.

She tried to pull out the hair, but no matter how much she pulled out, more hair would grow back the next second.

What on earth is going on?!
Danzo couldn't understand why she had turned into such a grotesque sight.

More importantly, there seemed to be a voice in her head, constantly whispering, keeping her on the verge of a mental breakdown.

Tap tap tap tap
At that moment, footsteps approached from afar.

"Who? Didn't I tell you all to get out!"

Danzo grabbed a black robe from the side in terror and covered himself completely in it, afraid that the person who came would see his terrifying appearance.

"it's me."

By the light of the candles in the hall, Danzo could see clearly who it was: Aburame Ryoma.

Her face turned somewhat unpleasant, and she said in a sharp tone, "Ryoma? What are you doing here? I already told you not to bother me during this time. Get out."

However, after saying this, Ryoma Aburame waited for a long time, but he didn't move an inch, as if he hadn't heard it.

Danzo's temples bulged with veins, his eyes filled with hostility: "Ryuma, didn't you hear my command?!"

Aburame Ryoma remained expressionless, a subtle hint of mockery on his face. Under Danzo's angry gaze, he slowly turned to the side, bowing his head respectfully, and said, "My lord."

Only then did Danzo belatedly realize that there was another figure behind Aburame Ryoma.

As the figure slowly emerged, his face illuminated by the candlelight, Danzo quickly revealed a twisted and ferocious expression of rage, his roar echoing in the empty hall: "It's you, Uchiha Munetsuki!"

Immediately afterwards, she turned her gaze to Aburame Ryoma, glaring at him angrily, and said through gritted teeth, "Aburame Ryoma, how dare you betray me?!"

"betray?"

Ryoma Aburame frowned, a puzzled look on his face: "Excuse my bluntness, but betrayal is based on loyalty, and I have never been loyal to you from beginning to end, so how can there be any betrayal?"

Danzo trembled with rage, pointing a finger at Ryuma and exclaiming incredulously, "What...what did you say?!"

"Face reality, Danzo."

A sneer played on Aburame Ryoma's lips as he said, "Someone like you, a rat hiding in the gutter, does he even deserve my loyalty?"

"Help! Help!"

Enraged, Danzo slammed his fist on the chair and roared, "Come out here and kill them!"

"Stop shouting, it won't do any good even if you shout until your throat is hoarse."

Ryoma Aburame chuckled and said, "In the entire Root organization, there isn't a single person loyal to you anymore, Danzo."

Upon hearing this, Danzo seemed unable to believe it. She gritted her teeth and roared furiously, "No, this is impossible! Root is mine! Don't think that someone who betrayed me will have a good end!"

"Are you planning to use the seal of 'Disaster' to destroy everything?"

Aburame Ryoma spoke first, revealing her thoughts and sticking out her tongue: "Sorry, your methods are no longer effective."

"No, it's impossible."

Danzo slumped into his chair, his eyes wide as he stared at the clean tongue that Danzo had stuck out, momentarily lost in thought: "When... exactly?"

"Hmm, that's a rather general question, and I'm not sure how to answer it."

After a long silence, Uchiha Muneki slowly walked towards her, asking as he went, "Are you referring to Root breaking free from your control? Or to you turning into a woman? Or... the Cloud Ninja invading Konoha? Sorry, I've been quite busy lately, I really can't remember." "What did you say?"

Danzo's eyes bulged with veins, and he seemed on the verge of exploding: "You're the one who turned me into a woman? And you're the one who did the Cloud Ninja thing too?"

"To be precise, including but not limited to."

Uchiha Muneki pretended to ponder, then smiled and said, "In fact, ever since the Rain Village incident, your every move has been under my watchful eye."

Amegakure. Hanzo?!
Danzo suddenly awoke, his face contorted with deep hatred as he glared at him fiercely: "Uchiha Munekichi, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. You are the greatest villain in Konoha!"

"A villain? Perhaps."

Uchiha Muneki did not refute, and said calmly, "Of course, none of this matters."

"So, you're telling me all this now to silence me?" Danzo wasn't stupid; she knew very well that since the other party had revealed everything, they would never let her live.

"Haha~"

Uchiha Muneki smiled slightly and remained silent.

"You want to kill me? You're not qualified!"

Suddenly, Danzo sprang up like a lioness: "Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!"

Several wind-style attacks pierced the air like bullets, spitting out from her mouth and streaking past at incredible speed, heading straight for Uchiha Munezuki's face.

"Secret Technique·Insect Wall Technique!"

A large swarm of parasitic insects flew out and spun around Uchiha Muneki at high speed, forming a wall.

Seeing that the Vacuum Jewels had been completely blocked, Danzo gritted his teeth in anger, glared at Aburame Ryoma, and cursed, "Aburame Ryoma, you damned traitor!"

"I've already said, I'm not a traitor!"

Ryoma Aburame's eyes flashed with rage as he formed hand seals: "Corrupting Insect - Corrosion!"

A massive horde of parasitic insects surged forth like a tidal wave, coalescing into a dark mass that swept towards Danzo.

"You forced me to do this—!"

Blinded by rage, Danzo no longer cared about his image.

scoff!

The black robe was shredded by a sharp object.

In the next instant, Danzo nimbly leaped several times and hung upside down from the ceiling of the hall.

Strands of black hair hung down from the ceiling, each strand ending in an eye-like object that gazed intently at the two people below.

Such a bizarre scene left even the resolute Ryoma Aburame feeling horrified and terrified.

"Ha ha ha ha."

The black hair danced wildly, as if it were alive, each strand containing immense power.

The hair whipped and cracked the floor tiles and walls, creating gusts of air.

Danzo laughed maniacally, clinging to the wall like a monster and moving at incredible speed: "Uchiha Munetsuki, you didn't expect this, did you? You turned me into a woman, but instead gave me immense power. Now it's your turn to taste the bitter fruit of your own actions!"

She was incredibly fast, almost like a streak of light in the darkness, flashing rapidly as she drew closer.

Immediately afterwards, a strand of black hair burst from the ground, wrapped around Uchiha Muneki's ankle, pulled him up, and slammed him against the wall.

boom!
The immense force shattered the wall.

Danzo, like a demon, grabbed the long sword with his hair and forcefully stabbed it into Uchiha Munetsuki's chest.

It's past midnight today—damn, it's snowing every day, I'm freezing!
