My ninjutsu is not right

Chapter 136: Ninja's Actions
It's not Danzo's style to end it so quickly, right?

Is there any other purpose?

After Link heard that the civil war in Chuan was over, he speculated in his heart.

The end of the war is not a good thing for the ninja village. The amount of tasks will surely decrease rapidly. Once the center of the country surrenders, there will not be much resistance in other places. If they can get the living son of the daimyo as a bargaining chip, perhaps the River Country will be quickly pacified.

Hmm, in that case, what does it mean that the surrendered Kawanokuni ninja assassinated the daimyo's son?
And the hatred towards Konoha Village...

[Will Danzo go too far? ]

"What...just happened?" The daimyo's son accepted the reality with difficulty. The fall of the capital meant that the River Country was gone. It would be useless for him to go back. The cruel reality broke through his psychological defenses in an instant. Facing the ninja he once knew, he had to ask with a bitter mouth.

The middle-aged ninja quickly calmed down and said, "Everything, including the death of the Daimyo and the ministers, was done by Konoha Village. The Fire Nation wants to support the rebels and establish a new puppet state."

"After we met with that guy, we decided to surrender. The Fire Nation's evil plan will not succeed."

"Once the new country is established, you will become the reason for the Fire Nation to intervene again with an alliance..."

"Your Highness, please die for this country."

He fell to his knees, tears streaming down his face, "We will stay with you."

The daimyo's son was stunned for a moment, and after sorting out his thoughts, his confused mind became clear. He didn't expect it to be like this, but at this moment, he was already trapped. If he didn't die now, he would have to face death...

The three armored warriors looked at a loss, but they still instinctively protected him, looking at the Konoha ninja who was guarding them with a wary look.

It's not that they are completely unable to understand the political considerations, but they cannot accept the death of the prince they were protecting, and they are deeply confused about the future of the country.

"Click~"X27
The shadows quickly and efficiently took care of all the Kawakuni ninjas, including the middle-aged ninja who was in the lead, and all of them died at the same time.

Link asked Shadow to destroy the heads of the dead one by one, looked at the daimyo's son, and said, "My mission is only to protect you to the capital of the Kawakuni."

His expression was very calm. Killing more than twenty people was as easy as crushing an ant.

Temari, Kankuro and Gaara felt nothing about it and were even used to it.

This is the real ninja world, where there is no justice or evil. It is a profession that lives in a vortex of interests and hatred.

It's really rare to find someone as naive as Naruto.

All I can say is that he was protected too well by the Sandaime Hokage.

The son of the daimyo looked at the loyal ministers and righteous men who had just shed tears and were willing to sacrifice their lives for the country and died in front of him. He opened his mouth and said, "I still hope to be able to... go to the capital."

His expression was somewhat complicated. "I want to see the future of this country with my own eyes..."

"Link Jonin, I'm counting on you." He bowed deeply.

No matter how much he desired power and how much ambition he had, it was all destroyed in the short time just now. He could actually choose to leave River Country.

But where else could he go?

This is his home.

"Ah."

Link responded. As a passer-by, he didn't care what the Kawakuni Ninja and the Daimyo's son were up to. As a ninja, he had to do what a ninja should do. He just had to complete the mission. Political struggles and the game between big and small countries were not within his consideration.

The shadows looted the corpse whose head was destroyed and would not reveal his information, then threw it aside and set it on fire. Soon a big fire broke out with crackling sounds.

It was already late autumn and the wind was bringing a biting chill. The daimyo's son sat in the carriage with the carriages removed. His expression changed back and forth, and finally turned into an indescribable melancholy and a low sigh.

The ruined village in the distance was hazy, and in the distorted air caused by the burning bodies of the victims, it seemed like a dream.

The warriors quickly calmed the irritated horses, and the carriage creaked forward again, slowly moving along the road that blended with the mottled bloodstains.

Link, his three subordinates, and the escorted Pharmacist Dou followed slowly.

Lopsided.
-
River Country, Orochimaru's base.

"clatter!"

Danzo Shimura stood in the corridor where dried blood was seen everywhere, with a calm expression. He had not originally planned to show up directly in River Country.

It's just that too many things happened here, which was a bit beyond his control. It was no problem for his collaborator to become the new daimyo, but the progress was too fast.

Not only was he unable to provide many tasks for the village, but he also vaguely revealed the idea of becoming independent.

As the one who made this plan, he would not allow any accidents to happen. Otherwise, he would lose the trust of the new Daimyo of the Land of Fire, and his path to becoming Hokage would be in trouble.
The daimyo is the brain and the ninja village is the hands and feet.

Excellent hands and feet have helped the country gain benefits and should be rewarded.

As for the vote of confidence after becoming Hokage, he was confident that he could pass it successfully when Hiruzen had already lost the support of the people...

[Therefore, there must be no mistakes or omissions in the plan of Kawanokuni]

Danzo Shimura showed a gloomy expression. If necessary, he did not mind using force to teach the rebels who was the real key to their success.

"Sir." The Root members who had gone to explore the entire base came back one after another. The subordinate wearing a cat mask knelt on one knee in front of him and said, "A master entered here and killed all the rebels. The bodies were burned in a room on the right using fire escape. The experimental equipment and experimental materials were all taken away..."

Shimura Danzo listened and felt a little confused.

Who attacked Orochimaru's base? It was impossible for a ninja from the Kawagoe to kill everyone in the base by himself.

He didn't care whether Orochimaru suffered any losses, but at this juncture, the appearance of a mysterious master forced him to think more.

"Feng, send someone to send the captured experimental subjects back to the village." He gave the order.

The reason they were able to find them was because some of the experimental subjects who escaped back to the nearby towns died suddenly and unexpectedly, which attracted Gen's attention.

"Destroy this place completely, and the rest of you go to the capital of Kawanokuni."

A few minutes later, "Boom!" The rock base collapsed with a roar, and Gen and Shimura Danzo quickly evacuated.

On a distant branch, Orochimaru watched quietly. He had come earlier and was not surprised that the base had fallen, but being able to capture Kabuto... made him cautious.

That's why he brought Danzo and Root here.

[Is it Akatsuki or...?]
