From a Pirate to a Revolutionary Mentor

Chapter 382 Uchiha Shisui, Solo Root
Konoha, the roots beneath the ground.

At the bridge at the entrance, masked ANBU appeared one after another.

Uchiha Shisui, the captain of the Anbu directly under the Fourth Hokage, looked at the six Root ninjas who were on guard.

The three-magatama Sharingan slowly turned, and under the activation of the illusion, several people all collapsed to the ground.

Afterwards, three teams, a total of nine people, walked towards the root.

After a moment, Shisui raised his hand and everyone stopped.

At this time, Danzo walked out from the darkness with a cane, followed by his two subordinates.

"You should have no right to come here and attack my men directly."

Danzo's voice was calm.

And Shisui was also aware that after entering here, he would inevitably touch the perception barrier.

The reason why the illusion was used at the first opportunity was just to rescue those roots that were bound by the technique after this incident.

"By order of the Hokage-sama: please go to the Hokage building."

Danzo raised his head slightly, and looked directly into Shisui's three-magatama Sharingan without any fear.

"That's not a request."

"The Fourth Generation removed me from my position as advisor, and later stripped the Root of its law enforcement authority. Now you want to cut off the Root directly?"

As soon as the words fell, figures flashed out from the shadows, spreading in all directions around.

Kunai and shurikens were taken out, ready to attack at the command.

Shisui spoke in a deep voice, "Since the Root has made a decision, they need to bear the consequences of this decision. You can't take chances with what you have done."

With his mind nearly exposed, veins bulged on Danzo's hand holding the cane.

"Haha...what you guys know is too superficial."

"Konoha is being led into the abyss. A tree without roots, no matter how luxuriant its branches and leaves are, is only temporary. Without roots, death is only a matter of time."

As he spoke, Danzo slowly raised his cane.

"But even if the trunk and branches are gone, as long as the roots are still there, sooner or later it will grow into a towering tree again."

"Boom!"

The cane was slammed heavily on the ground, the sound seemed like an order, and bright lights flashed from all around.

Kunai flew by, steel wires crisscrossed, with detonating talismans hanging on them.

The ninjas who had already completed hand seals around him used fire escape to ignite the steel wires and bind them, and the detonating tags also exploded at the same time.

"Boom boom boom..."

In the smoke, the three teams led by Shisui scattered.

One of them made seals with his hands, and the shadow under his feet bound his opponent like a whip.

The kunai was thrown towards him, but he did not dodge or evade. Covered by the black substance, the armed color domineering directly bounced the kunai away.

"between!"

A figure rushed forward, veins bulging around his eye sockets under the mask.

Under the white eyes, the chakra meridians are clearly visible.

Under continuous attacks, the opponent could no longer condense chakra and collapsed to the ground.

In just half a minute, the cooperation between Nara and Hyuga branches eliminated an enemy while avoiding numerous attacks.

……

On the bridge, Uchiha Shisui looked at Danzo and said, "You should know that the Root has no chance of winning. And since you colluded with Kumogakure to attack the ninjas of your own village, you will naturally be held accountable."

Upon hearing this, Danzo's expression became even gloomier.

"It's not your turn as an Uchiha bastard to teach me a lesson! Your clan is born evil, and one day this village will be destroyed in your hands!"

"That bastard Hiruzen handed the village over to a civilian, and this civilian is leading the village to destruction!"

"The village was built on the support of the Fire Country. The first Hokage negotiated and made concessions with the Fire Country Daimyo, which led to the prosperity of Konoha today. Now, Namikaze Minato is destroying everything!"

After speaking a series of words, a large amount of air gathered in his mouth.

The next moment, Danzo suddenly formed a seal.

Wind escape. Vacuum wave

A sharp blade spurted out of its mouth and suddenly slashed towards Shisui unexpectedly.

"boom!"

The arms were covered with armed color domineering, and they were crossed to block the wind blade.

Shisui's Sharingan slowly turned.

If he hadn't had the perception of Observation Haki, he would have been injured by the sudden attack.

It was just a B-rank ninjutsu, but by inhaling the air in conjunction with words, he could complete this step first. Even if the hand seal was copied by his Sharingan, he couldn't use them at the same time.

These older generation ninjas have accumulated so much experience that even he could suffer a great loss if he is not careful.

Thinking of this, Shisui's observation Haki sensed something and he jumped back.

Behind him, an orange-haired ninja dodged the triangle between his hands.

The secret technique of the mountain clan?

"Shhhhh..."

Three shurikens flew from the sky, and at the same time Danzo had completed the hand seal.

In the air, three shurikens turned into six, and six turned into twelve, and soon they were densely packed towards Shisui.

Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu.

Shisui swung his short blade while fully activating his observation Haki.

With one swing of the knife, the whole person was also split into two.

As the blade fell, it cut off the Yamanaka clan below, but they dissipated in a puff of smoke.

Shadow clone?
The next moment, wind blades attacked.

The sharp edge passed by, cutting Shisui's body one by one, but not a drop of blood fell.

Yamanaka Feng withdrew, and the Root Ninja who was focusing his fire with Wind Style Wind Blade not far away also showed a look of understanding at this moment.

Shunshin Shisui, the genius of the Uchiha clan, the youngest direct ANBU captain...

The information about Uchiha Shisui was analyzed in detail several years ago, when the Uchiha had not yet been integrated into the village.

The three-magatama Sharingan itself represents the pinnacle of the Uchiha clan's illusion techniques, but Uchiha Shisui only has one.

Using Sharingan illusion combined with swordsmanship, he created existences that were like clones.

When the attack hits, it is a physical entity, but when it is hit, it is revealed to be a clone.

In the middle of the Third Shinobi World War, during the first conflict between Konoha and Kirigakure, Ao of Kirigakure was able to force him to retreat simply by relying on his name.

This is the name of Uchiha Shisui.

"puff!"

Blood splattered, and Shisui held the short blade across his chest.

Eighteen identical Uchiha Shisui surrounded Yamanaka Feng and others.

"The Root is also the Root of Konoha, and you are also one of the ninjas of Konoha."

Shisui's voice seemed to come from every direction: "Think clearly about what you are doing now. You refused the order of the Hokage and attacked the Anbu directly under the Hokage together with Danzo. Such an action is equivalent to betraying the village!"

After the words fell, the Root ninja who was on high alert did not show any sign of hesitation.

The solemnity in his eyes, wanting to capture the entity and deliver a fatal blow, remained unchanged without any weakening.

This scene made Shisui feel cold inside.

The reason why they didn't kill everyone without any disagreement was because the Root was also made up of Konoha's ninjas.

If one's mind is not awakened, one will not be able to look at problems with dialectical thinking and naturally will not be able to clearly recognize what is right and what is wrong.

Long-term verbal brainwashing, combined with the control of curses and the erosion of emotional control.

I'm afraid that all the ninjas in the entire Root have completely become so-called tools.

There is no distinction between high and low life. No matter who you are, you have the right to desire survival because it is the instinct of life.

But the root... erases this instinct, turning people into tools without emotions.

For the first time, what was once recorded in the Ninja Code actually appeared at this moment.

"Danzo."

The next moment, amidst a calm voice, Uchiha Shisui, who was divided into eighteen parts, gradually dissipated, leaving only one entity.

His eyes were fixed on Danzo not far away.

And underneath those bandages, the same three-magatama Sharingan had been unable to see through Shisui's true intentions.

"Bang bang bang..."

The cane hit the ground, and Danzo, who was originally behind the many Root ninjas, had to step forward.

The ANBU directly under the Fourth Generation, who came with Shisui, also fell behind him and faced the Root directly.

"Using the pupil technique of the Sharingan in combination with the instant body technique, it is difficult to distinguish between the entity and the clone. In fact, only at the moment of attack can the real entity be perceived."

Danzo stared at Shisui with a gloomy look: "Your eyes... are the same as Uchiha Obito's?"

Shisui held the short blade tightly.

He replied in a deep voice: "You should know... that child... Uchiha Yan was not outstanding in the clan in the past, and one could even say that his talent was mediocre."

"You know what? The emotions you think are superfluous to a ninja are actually the source of a person's strength."

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Shisui looked up suddenly.

In a pair of pupils, three magatama were rotating and connecting with each other, forming a four-blade windmill.

Mangekyō Sharingan!

"Om..."

With a buzzing sound, Uchiha Shisui rushed straight towards Danzo.

"Shh."

Shan Zhongfeng appeared in an instant. Without time to form a seal, he tightly grasped the kunai in his hand and thought of blocking the opponent.

However, under the observation Haki, the trajectory of his actions had already been sensed.

As their eyes met, Shan Zhongfeng seemed to feel his heart trembling.

behind?

"puff!"

Blood splattered as the short blade passed through his abdomen.

Not only that, when Uchiha Shisui appeared again, he was already facing Shimura Danzo.

Not hiding?

Doubt flashed through Shisui's mind, but the sharp blade in his hand did not stop at all and stabbed straight into his chest.

It's a entity...but it seems too simple.

After a moment of confusion, preparations were made.

"You seem to be questioning your own strength?"

Danzo glanced at the short blade on his chest: "Even though you feel that the object you hit is indeed a real entity and you can feel the warm blood, you still have doubts?"

At this time, the bandage on Danzo's right eye slowly fell off.

In his eye sockets, the three-magatama Sharingan gradually turned dim until his eyelids closed and lost all his power.

The hands behind his back had already completed the Izanagi seal.

"Strength is what enables you to question me, but it is also your weakness. As the direct subordinate of the Fourth Hokage, the power you gained from the so-called history class has magnified your weaknesses."

Under Danzo's feet, wisps of black matter moved and spread towards Shisui.

"Uchiha Shisui, the Mangekyō Sharingan makes you too proud."

The seal of self-karma bondage.

The trap that had been prepared for the roots since Shisui appeared now covered Shisui's entire body with curse seals, binding him in place and making him unable to move.

"team leader!"

……

The members of the three ANBU teams cried out in surprise, and Hinata Kagami, Nara and the others wanted to take action, but were stopped by Aburame Tone.

Secret Technique: The Technique of Poisonous Dust.

The poisonous insects between his hands were like tiny particles, spreading forward like mist.

However, Hinata Jing continued to rush forward, a hot current surged from his body, and the armament domineering gathered in his palm and suddenly slapped out.

Wherever he passed, poisonous insects that still relied on chakra fell to the ground.

Hinata Jing looked at the restrained Uchiha Shisui and said, "Captain, we have to make a quick decision. Otherwise, the Hokage should be waiting."

After he finished speaking, Uchiha Shisui stopped struggling.

He didn't care about the curse marks all over his body, looked at Danzo and said, "Izanagi, at the cost of blinding your Sharingan, cast it on yourself, so that negative factors will become the environment, and the factors that are beneficial to you will remain real."

"But you are not an Uchiha after all. Your chakra...can sustain..."

Before he could finish his words, Danzo's right arm transformed into a towering tree and stabbed straight into Uchiha Shisui.

Wood Release: Exploding burial of tree roots.

"puff!"

Uchiha Shisui's body, bound by the curse seal, exploded, and his two eyeballs were held by Danzo's left hand.

Blood fell to the ground like raindrops.

Then Danzo looked at Hinata Jing and the others: "Now... I have the strongest power of the Uchiha and Senju gathered in me, and only I can make Konoha great again!"

"Submit to me. Ninjas don't need to have emotions. Only by discarding those useless things can you become stronger."

As he spoke, the big tree on his right arm gradually disappeared.

Beneath the bandage on his arm, one of his Sharingans closed again, losing all its power.

However, the masked Hyuga Kagami ignored his solicitation and repelled the Aburame Root with a domineering palm. He used his Observation Haki to avoid Yamanaka Wind's secret technique and instead repelled another Root ninja.

"A frog in a well has never seen the vast sky."

As soon as Hinata Jing's voice fell, a bright light flashed by.

"puff!"

The next moment, Danzo's right arm was completely cut off.

Uchiha Shisui's short blade was across Danzo's neck: "I said you are not from the Uchiha clan, and Izanagi can only last a limited time. One and a half minutes, this is my best estimate for you."

"Also...Hokage-sama has summoned you. You must come with me to the Hokage building now."

His right arm was cut off by a knife, and the pain made Danzo's forehead covered with sweat.

But he had to stop all his movements.

In his heart, he shouted angrily that it was not because he was afraid of death, but because he was the most suitable candidate for Hokage.

For the sake of the village, and to make Konoha great again, he had to survive.

"Uchiha Shisui!"

"Stop the Root ninjas."

"Are you giving orders to this old man?!"

Even though the short blade on his neck is extremely sharp, it seems that the level of power and status is more important in his heart.

Upon hearing this, Shisui swung his sword with one hand.

"puff."

There was blood all over my back and the pain intensified again.

"Let the roots stand by in silence!"
