Konoha: Tsunade, I am the Hokage

Chapter 83 Danzo: I'm going to take on New Konoha!

"You have backup?"

Ryoma Aburame raised his hand, and his chakra surged, transforming into a cocoon.

Immediately, insects hatched from within, and a cloud of insects spread outwards.

But soon.

The insects found a target.

This person is...

"So it was him!"

Aburame Ryoma suddenly realized.

Judging from the chakra, it should be that kid Ryomine Kyohiko!

Unexpectedly, the third generation actually asked him to come with Aburame Shimi. No wonder the Root organization's subordinates were in such a mess.

but.

An eight-year-old child broke into the Root organization's base...

"They're all useless!"

Aburame Ryoma's face turned cold.

Although the people at the base have received meticulous training, most of them are just ordinary people without any special secret techniques or abilities. Compared to others...

Just now, A and B were already elites.

however.

Those two didn't last long either.

"Now it's your turn."

Aburame's gaze dimmed slightly. "As a member of our tribe, come back with me, and I might spare your life!"

"For Lord Danzo!"

Without hesitation, Aburame Ryoma raised his head and shouted, his chakra exploding, and the parasitic insects rapidly multiplied, transforming into a sky full of dark clouds that enveloped Kyohiko.

He was not afraid of insects, but he was even more wary of Jingyan.

however.

The next instant, a deafening roar.

In the distance, a water dragon rose from Jingyan's body and, guided and controlled by Jingyan's arm, transformed into a spinning column of water rushing towards him.

Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet!

Like a water dragon bullet with a tooth-like tip, it drew a beautiful arc in the air.

Judging from sheer power...

Aburame Ryoma could sense that the ninjutsu before him contained powerful chakra, and being hit by it would definitely be fatal.

We can't stop them!

He tried to avoid it, but behind him, a bunch of insects belonging to Yu Nu Zhiwei gathered at one point, directly breaking through the rotating wall formed by the insects and creating a thin zone.

not good!

Aburame Ryoma immediately understood what the other party was thinking.

This vulnerable area will soon be filled by other insects if nothing unexpected happens, but there is also a threat on the other side.

He immediately manipulated the insect to stop spinning, protecting it from the water dragon bullets on the other side, while he quickly moved to a different position, intending to escape the area.

but.

The next moment, the insect reported that a figure was rapidly approaching!

Extremely fast.

No, no!

What the insect senses is actually its previous location...

Aburame Ryoma immediately manipulated the insects, attempting to create insect clones.

But in an instant.

He felt that the worms inside his body were somewhat out of control.

This is?

Before Aburame Shiki...

It wasn't just to create opportunities for Kyohiko.

Aburame Ryoma was incredulous and could only escape using his physical skills, but at that moment, a high-pitched roar came from above.

He looked up.

All I saw was—

Ahead, Kyohiko, holding the dragon head, forcefully changed the direction of the water dragon bullet, making it draw a semi-circle in the air and charge in through the weak point of his insect wall technique.

In that instant, he seemed to hear the roar of a dragon.

High-pitched and terrifying.

boom!

The spinning dragon head pounded into his abdomen like a drill, propelling him out of the insect wall.

The parasites can't keep up!

In mid-air, before he could recover, he heard a gust of wind howling.

A person appeared from behind.

On the ground, Yu Nuzhiwei was completely stunned.

He felt...

I was just a bystander, playing a supporting role.

If you create an opportunity for Kyohiko, he can seize it instantly and deliver a fatal blow.

Just like now.

After releasing the water dragon bullet, Kyohiko left a shadow clone in place, while his real body instantly teleported to the dragon's head, using his hand to maintain and control it, replacing the shadow clone...

Thus, the unconventional water cannon was released.

Such water dragon bullets are stronger, faster, and can change direction, making them impossible to defend against. Even if he were to suddenly attack, he would not be able to block them.

At this moment, Aburame Ryoma had already devoured the parasitic worms that Aburame Shiki had invaded his body.

His body was covered with parasites.

but.

In an instant, Jingyan's fist slammed into him.

The superhuman strength technique collided directly.

Even the parasitic insects could not devour the sudden burst of chakra at this moment. Aburame Ryoma streaked across the sky like a meteor and fell in front of Aburame Shiki.

Immediately, Kyohiko appeared beside Aburame Shimi.

"help!"

"Um."

Without further ado, Aburame Shiki manipulated the insects into Kyohiko's body, quickly devouring the parasitic insects that had invaded his body.

In no time, the insects were completely wiped out.

If they are not eliminated immediately, they will absorb the host's chakra to reproduce and eventually burst out of the body.

The terrifying thing about the parasites of the Aburame clan is that they are so horrifying.

Jingyan let out a sigh of relief.

"Thank you very much, Senior Zhiwei."

"Not at all, I'm the one who should thank you. If it weren't for you..."

Aburame Shiki looked at Aburame Ryoma lying motionless on the ground and sighed silently.

This guy is also a genius of the Aburame family.

Unfortunately, he followed Danzo and is now a fanatical follower of Danzo, making communication impossible.

"Ryoma Aburame, sigh!"

"If we try to save them now, it might still be in time, but we have to be quick. If we're too slow, the people behind will catch up."

Jingyan forced a smile and said.

Aburame hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's take them with us first, then we'll go."

"Coincidentally, there are two people on my side as well, and I can't move for the time being."

Jingyan stood still.

At this moment, the shadow clone dragged the two of them slowly from a distance.

One hand is the future pharmacist, Nono.

The other hand is the future Yamato.

Aburame Zhiwei was somewhat surprised: "You still kept her? I thought you killed her."

"I feel like we might be able to salvage this situation. After all, the vast majority of people stay in Root because they have no other choice. If they had a choice, they probably wouldn't want to stay in Root either."

"Kyohiko said."

Then, he frowned.

"The only problem is the cursed seal Danzo left on them..."

The seal of the annihilation of the root of calamity through the tongue.

Although they can't reveal Danzo's secrets, there might be other tricks up their sleeves. And as long as the cursed seal remains, they will never forget the psychological shock Danzo caused.

Aburame Shimi secretly observed Kyohiko.

This child has experienced many hardships.

Despite losing family members at a young age and having the family's scrolls taken away by others, leaving only a few, she still retains her kindness even now.

That's truly rare!

and.

He almost thought the Water Release technique he just used was the Second Hokage reappearing; that soaring water dragon was once praised in the legends of their childhood.

But now...

Yu Nu Zhiwei was already lost in thought.

"Senior Zhiwei?"

"Huh? Oh, then, I'll seal him away first."

Yu Nu Zhiwei took out a scroll, then formed a hand seal. After a few seconds, gourd-like objects emerged from the scroll, and then he opened the gourds...

On the scroll, the spell was laid out, the black spell patterns spreading outwards from the Aburame Ryoma lying on the ground, and finally gathering on the gourd.

Before long, insects flew out of the Oil Girl Dragon Horse and entered the gourd.

Is this a technique to seal away insects?

It's rather novel.

However, it should only be able to seal insects that have lost the control of their host, otherwise it would have been taken out earlier.

After some preparation, all the insects were sealed away.

"Can this technique only control uncontrollable insects?"

"Yes, it's actually a sealing device we use to seal our own insects. It's rarely used to seal other people's insects, since the Aburame clan are all our own people..."

Yu Nu Zhiwei sighed softly.

He never imagined that one day he would have to turn against his own people.

Jingyan gave it a try.

Now that he can move around a little, and his clone has arrived, he can help communicate with the toad.

Hand it over, bite your finger.

Afterwards, his shadow clone formed hand seals to summon the spirit, while he chatted idly with Aburame Shiki.

He didn't want to get too involved with the Aburame clan.

The Aburame family's secret techniques are independent of others, and their core is raising insects and symbiosis. They may require some thought during combat, but there isn't much skill involved.

Currently, he hasn't figured out how to profit from the oil woman's family.

and so.

For now, it's good for us to maintain our comradeship.

Because he didn't have much chakra, Kyohiko only summoned the Iron-Armed Toad, which held Yamato while Kyohiko carried Yakushi Nonou, which could be considered as training with a heavy load.

"Let's go, or they'll catch up with us."

"Um."

……

Inside the Anbu base in Konoha, Danzo followed Hiruzen Sarutobi through the tunnels into the innermost research lab.

Jiraiya and Tsunade are both here.

"How is it?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked.

"It's a very peculiar physique, but this power is extremely uncontrollable, and there's almost no possibility of us controlling it. The cost of transplanting his flesh and blood is also terrifying."

As he spoke, Gang pointed to the side.

Beside it, a bizarre creature was howling madly. Hiruzen Sarutobi examined it closely and realized that it looked like a pig, but now it had become horribly deformed, with flesh and blood growing out of it and no sense of reason, making it almost unrecognizable.

"Ninja transplantation should give us a chance to control it."

Danzo said.

Tsunade immediately gave her a cold look: "Danzo-senpai, do you mean to use our hard-earned ninjas as test subjects, to let them see if they can control this power?"

"This is the necessary price!"

Danzo cut off the railway with a decisive move.

Tsunade chuckled and looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Sensei, you often say that the village needs necessary darkness. Did you mean to take action against the villagers?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi remained silent.

He didn't know how to answer, but he was probably cursing Danzo in his heart.

"It doesn't necessarily have to be one of our own; it could also be a ninja from another country."

Danzo continued.

Jiraiya laughed.

"The disappearance of ninjas will inevitably lead to an investigation into their origins, which will then result in a war. Danzo-senpai, was this also part of your plan?"

"You simply don't understand. If you have enough power, you don't need to care about what others think."

Danzo's will was firm.

In his view, only his own people are trustworthy, and the current peace is merely a result of forbearance and compromise before he was strong enough.

however.

After he finished speaking, Tsunade and Jiraiya stopped talking.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression remained indifferent.

"If he becomes a ninja, is it possible for him to control it? For example, reduce the time he goes berserk, or prevent himself from going berserk when using a portion of his power?"

"That's possible."

Tsunade took the opportunity to change the subject.

She explained the results of helping Kurokawa refine and control his chakra over the past two or three days, and Jiraiya similarly explained the principles of Sage Chakra.

As a professor of ninjutsu, how could Hiruzen Sarutobi not understand it?

He nodded.

Therefore, Kyohiko's suggestion is feasible: let Kurokawa train and become stronger so that one day he can control this power and become one of Konoha's forces.

even--

If Kurokawa settles down and starts a family, and continues his legacy in Konoha, he might just become a clan.

However, Konoha already has the Uchiha clan; if another clan as uncontrollable as Libra were to appear, it would likely cause even more headaches.

Hiruzen Sarutobi rubbed his temples.

"He's abandoning the research, but he'll stay in the Anbu for now, under the care of the Sealing Team. They'll teach him chakra refinement and control. Jiraiya, I'll need your help with this..."

"no problem."

Jiraiya nodded.

He disagreed with the old man on political matters, but he would never stop working or deliberately cause trouble because of that.

not to mention.

The bomb was brought by his own disciple.

Danzo's face darkened.

He understood that Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't really intend for him to take over; he just brought him here to see what the so-called "Sage Body" was like.

He was furious, but he couldn't vent his anger directly.

Today, the secret service still has his people, but it is no longer his domain. His influence has been weakened to almost nothing, leaving only a few departments such as training and interrogation.

"Danzo, let's go."

Hiruzen Sarutobi turned and left.

Danzo followed, saying nothing more, but silently going along.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Danzo, your thinking is too extreme. What we need now is stability and peace; we can't create any more trouble."

"War will resume sooner or later."

Danzo coldly replied, "If we don't hurry up and become stronger now, are we going to wait until war breaks out?"

"We need to become stronger, but not in this way."

The debate over Hiruzen Sarutobi.

He seemed intent on having a heart-to-heart talk with Danzo, trying to make Danzo understand his good intentions, but for some reason, Danzo sensed something was amiss.

The previous Hiruzen Sarutobi would never have told him so much, much less shown him so many secrets. His current actions give the impression that he is deliberately trying to keep him here.

Danzo frowned.

Then, his gaze suddenly turned serious.

Is it...

He stared at Hiruzen Sarutobi and said, "Hiruzen, did you send someone to my side?"

"Where are you?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression turned serious as he stared at him. "You have your own base? I didn't even know, Danzo... You created an organization under the guise of a training department?"

Danzo realized he had spoken out of turn and immediately shut his mouth.

Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi's sharp gaze, he retorted, "I'm doing this for Konoha. Our own people shouldn't be in enemy territory. If they're dug up, they'll be used as a pretext to demand compensation. But unregistered ninjas don't have this problem."

"You can also target your own people, right?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi sneered.

He then stopped, his gaze turning icy as he stared at Danzo: "How many more things are you hiding from me?"

"Don't you already know? Yes, I did establish Root, but it was all for the sake of Konoha. Now Root is spread across various countries, allowing us to obtain all sorts of intelligence..."

Danzo spoke about his role and that of the Root.

His gaze softened: "Hiruzen, we may have different opinions, but we are all doing this for Konoha."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's tone softened as well.

The two walked and talked, and it seemed they were going to talk until dawn.

however.

While Danzo was chatting with Hiruzen Sarutobi, his base had already been breached by Kyohiko, and even his trusted subordinates had been captured alive. Three important figures were taken back to Konoha from Senrinji Temple.

When he found out...

It was already the second day.

The morning was sunny, but Danzo's mood wasn't so pleasant.

That night, he thought he had managed to keep Hiruzen Sarutobi under control.

result.

In the end, Hiruzen Sarutobi had already sent men to capture his subordinates.

The idiot was himself!

"Danzo, stop fighting. You're no match for Hiruzen. Hand over the Root members. They should be placed under the unified jurisdiction of Konoha."

Mitokado advised in a low voice.

Koharu Utatane also said, "Root is indeed necessary, but your recent actions have indeed angered Hiruzen. Once he calms down, we will help you persuade him, and you will still be in your previous position..."

"snort!"

Danzo stood up and left angrily.

He understood.

Even Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu disagreed with his actions, believing that he was too radical, did not value human life, and even wanted to control the "Root" that he had founded.

That's something he built from scratch, how could he let it go?

big deal...

I will recreate Root, Dark Side, and even Konoha!

He turned and left.
