One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

The warm sunshine outside gave him a terrifying and absurd feeling.

Every time he was about to take a step forward, his intuition told him that if he took another step forward, he would die!

This forced him to believe it.

As a result, the clansmen who had been unconscious in the secret room were quickly taken away.

Furthermore, Shikamaru selected skilled members of his clan to form a team, preparing to notify the nearby Akimichi and Yamanaka clans so that everyone could go to the Hokage Building to rescue people!

Chapter 554 Assassinating the Hokage!

Abel dared to tell Shikamaru what he was going to do next.

Actually, it was to draw everyone's attention to Danzo, laying the groundwork for future plans.

Don't forget, besides Danzo's Mangekyou Sharingan, he also had his eye on Naruto, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Naruto has not yet gone into hiding, nor has he gone to the Land of Lightning.

Danzo's intention was to first control Naruto and place him under house arrest.

However, this was strongly opposed by Kakashi and others.

Danzo was only acting Hokage, so his position was unstable. In addition, Naruto was no longer the same person he used to be; he was now a hero to the entire village.

Therefore, he had no choice but to put the matter aside for the time being and could not resort to forceful measures.

However, his condition was that Kakashi and the others should keep an eye on Naruto.

The exact location is hard to hide, as the entire village is under reconstruction, and it's easy to see which areas have been prioritized for construction!

It was as conspicuous as the first Hokage Building to be built.

Abel's initial idea was to take down Danzo first, and then go find Naruto.

Success is the best outcome; if not, proceed with Plan B.

Before heading to the Hokage Building, Abel also woke up Nara Shikaku, who was pretending to be unconscious.

Under his coercion and enticement, Shikaku, who already knew what he was going to do, finally had to 'compromise' for the sake of his son after putting on a superb acting performance.

In reality, Abel probably already had a guess about what the other party wanted to do.

But it doesn't matter.

I will take action!

And so, the two quickly arrived at the Hokage Building.

And thanks to Shikaku's status and position, he successfully helped Abel sneak in.

However, once inside, Abel, with his excellent perception, immediately sensed that at least a dozen gazes had swept over him.

And several pairs of eyes never left.

That must be someone from the Dark Bureau or Root secretly monitoring all suspicious individuals.

Clearly, this stranger was the most suspicious.

Even though Shikaku brought him in, it was of no use.

Abel had anticipated this, so he remained perfectly normal.

He even pretended not to see the little tricks that Lu Jiu secretly did behind his back.

We'll discuss everything once we meet Danzo.

Soon, the two arrived at the Hokage's office in silence.

dong dong~

"Come in."

Pushing open the door, they saw an old man dressed in a shadow robe, with the right half of his face wrapped in bandages, sitting behind a desk, looking at them with a gloomy gaze.

Just one look from him could make you feel uncomfortable all over, as if you were being watched by something dirty.

"Shikaku, is this the gift you gave me for taking office as Hokage?"

"Or is it that you, as the current head of the Nara clan, can't even subdue a mere spy from another village?"

Danzo's words were so direct and revealing that he had clearly received the message that Shikaku had secretly sent him.

shhhhhhhhh...

Several masked figures appeared simultaneously, surrounding Abel and Shikaku.

This is a trap, a trap that Shikaku set up by gambling with his own life.

Regardless of his feelings towards Danzo, as long as Danzo remains Hokage, he cannot betray him, much less bring him danger.

So this is his choice.

"I'm sorry, Hokage-sama. This is the only way I can fulfill my duty."

Looking at the people from the Anbu and Root, Shikaku actually breathed a sigh of relief.

Because he has a clear conscience!

At that distance, he knew that even if he struggled, he would not escape death, so he simply lay down and gave up.

It's hard to say for sure; Shikamaru didn't inherit that trait from him.

Shikaku's attitude surprised Danzo, who then took the boy he had previously disregarded seriously for the first time.

"It seems that the person who could hold you hostage here and say such things must be quite powerful."

"But once he got here, he couldn't escape!"

"Hmph, Shikaku, your crimes will be settled later."

Danzo's point was that with so many people around, there was nothing to be afraid of; he didn't believe the other side would dare to make any rash moves.

Why aren't you taking this opportunity to come over? What are you thinking?

Danzo was indeed determined to use this opportunity to give Shikaku a good talking-to afterward. If he could bring the entire Nara clan to his side, that would be the best outcome.

Therefore, he did not want to see anything happen to Shikaku.

Of course, if Lu Jiu hadn't secretly spread the news and informed the people here, he would definitely have settled the score later, and might not have cared about Lu Jiu's life or death at this moment.

"Little Shadow..."

puff!

Lu Jiu gave a bitter smile, but it was too late to speak again.

Because the sharp tip of the knife had pierced his chest from behind.

"I saw you making those underhanded moves a long time ago, I just didn't care. Consider this the price you pay for betraying me."

After Abel finished speaking, he threw Shikaku directly at Danzo in front of him.

Everyone on the field was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting that someone would dare to act so recklessly, even kill someone right in front of them, while they were surrounded.

A member of Root immediately stepped in front of Danzo and caught Shikaku.

After quickly checking himself to make sure he wasn't covered in any explosive tags or random curse marks, he looked at Danzo and nodded.

"how is the situation?"

Danzo frowned and asked.

"The injuries are serious and require immediate treatment."

"Send them directly to the medical team, and be quick."

"Yes!"

The members of that group immediately left with Nara Shikaku.

Whether or not they can be saved depends on luck and fate.

At this moment, Danzo stood up from his seat and said coldly, "No matter where you come from or what you want from me, your final result will be to be squeezed dry in Konoha's interrogation department, and then your body will be dissected and studied for further use."

“You will regret stepping into this place and standing before me.”

By the end, Danzo's slightly narrowed eyes had fully opened, and he exuded an aura of iron-blooded ferocity.

Clearly, the fact that the other party had almost killed Shikaku in front of him had angered him.

Since becoming Hokage, though he is currently acting Hokage, Danzo's ambition has grown ever larger after achieving his life goal, and he will not tolerate anyone going against his decisions.

So he wanted to make this kid feel true despair and regret provoking him for the rest of his life.

No one noticed that the moment Abel stepped into the room, his shadow had already vanished.

Even though Shikaku risked his life to give that final reminder, he couldn't fully say it.

Danzo didn't care and didn't take it seriously.

This is why, while Danzo was still spouting nonsense, a human-shaped shadow emerged from the shadow behind him, with a strange and eerie smile on its face.

puff!

A hand reached behind Danzo, holding a fresh, beating heart in its hand!

Chapter 555 Izanagi

The hand naturally belonged to Abel. Although the Shadow Mage was invincible in defense, his attack power was still a bit low.

So when he made his move, Abel switched his left hand and easily pulled out Danzo's heart.

"Lord Danzo!"

Both the Root members and the Dark Division members panicked at the same time.

Despite their protection, the Hokage was assassinated; their deaths were not enough to atone for their sins.

So they all got to work at once.
