Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 8: Lord Danzo's will is the will of Root, but the will of Root is not necessarily Lord Danzo's will.

Ryoma Aburame had never seen such a sight before.

Akihara Kagura simply stood there, and the dense swarm of insects surrounding the boy fell to the ground in a flurry, leaving a thick layer of insects on the ground!

How can an enemy be so nonchalant about being bitten by insects?

How can the insects I raise myself get so full?

Ryoma Aburame used his family's secret techniques to defeat many enemies. Whenever an enemy was entangled by the swarm of insects he controlled, the insects would devour all the chakra in their body, causing them to lose their ability to fight.

This time…

An unexpected incident occurred.

As Akihara Kagura said, an insect is ultimately just an insect.

The amount of chakra that insects can hold is limited, and the imagination of Aburame Ryoma, the insect's breeder, is also limited. He never imagined that someone's chakra could be so abundant that the insects parasitizing his body had lost their ability to move...

"Secret Technique: Cocoon!"

There are other methods for Aburame Ryoma.

The Aburame clan often encounters a shortage of insects during battles, so they have a unique secret technique: using chakra to form cocoons and hatch more insects!

"Parasitic Bug - Hurricane!"

A swarm of insects transformed into a tornado and attacked Akihara Kagura!

"I already said..."

"An insect is just an insect after all!"

Akihara Kagura shattered the floor with a single stomp, and the chakra within her surged forth!

The chakra fluctuations emanating from the boy made Aburame Ryoma feel as if he were facing a great crisis, let alone the insects he had hatched!

The insect mist, struck by the burst of chakra, froze abruptly, as if blown by a hurricane. Countless insects flew out and were slammed against the wall by the powerful impact!

"This chakra..."

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Ryoma Aburame's forehead.

This was the first time in all these years that Ryoma Aburame had ever seen someone create such power simply by unleashing the chakra within their body!

Just considering the sheer strength of his chakra, Aburame Ryoma could say that he had never seen anything like it in his entire life!

This brat…

He's a pretty terrifying guy!

While Aburame Ryoma was still marveling at the sight, he saw Akihara Kagura's body suddenly transform into a black shadow and rush towards him, startling him so much that he hurriedly dodged!

"He doesn't seem to have much combat skill..."

Looking at the boy's somewhat clumsy attack methods, Aburame Ryoma felt slightly relieved: "Although his chakra is very strong, he has never received formal ninja training."

It has to be said that this kid has good talent, but he still has a long way to go before he can become a powerful force in the Root organization!

"Little guy..."

"A ninja's battle isn't as simple as just looking at chakra..."

As Aburame Ryoma relaxed, he quietly appeared beside Akihara Kagura and slammed his elbow heavily into his shoulder and neck!

Akihara Kagura felt a sharp pain in her shoulder!

However, by the time Akihara Kagura turned around, Aburame Ryoma had already sidestepped and moved in front of the boy, kicking him in the chest!

Akihara Kagura was sent flying backwards!

Aburame Ryoma leaped forward, grabbing the boy's neck tightly and slamming him against the wall: "Now...will you behave yourself?"

"..."

A strange smile appeared on the boy's face.

That eerie smile made Aburame Ryoma's heart skip a beat!

Does this brat have some other fighting methods? Now that I've got him under my control, can he still form hand seals and cast ninjutsu?

Click!

Akihara Kagura's clothes suddenly ripped!

A sharp wooden splinter emerged from his body and pierced Aburame Ryoma's shoulder!

This is…

No-Mark Ninjutsu!

The wooden spikes of the Wood Release Bloodline Ability are not cast using ninjutsu, but grow from inside the Bloodline Ability's body?

I was too careless!

Aburame Ryoma immediately realized the danger he was in!

A splinter wouldn't frighten Ryoma, but he had personally witnessed the boy using a splinter to catch fish and knew exactly how dangerous it was!

This splinter…

It will grow inside its own body!

Even if the splinter is only on the shoulder, once it branches and grows inside the body, it will surely pierce through the entire body!

If you want to get out of this crisis, you either have to stop the boy from forming the hand seals or pull out the splinter as soon as possible!

however…

That's too late!

Bang!

Taking advantage of Aburame Ryoma's momentary lapse in concentration, Akihara Kagura slammed her elbow against the wall, using the momentum to send Aburame Ryoma flying!

"Wood Release: Wood Splintering..."

Akihara Kagura raised her finger!

"I give up!"

Ryoma Aburame quickly raised his palm!

This kid is no kind or cowardly person!

Ryoma Aburame had witnessed it firsthand; this was a psychopath who took pleasure in killing. Besides, it would be too humiliating to die at the hands of this brat!

"I'm so sorry for the offense, senpai..."

Akihara Kagura immediately put on a friendly smile: "From now on, we'll address each other as we are. I'll call you senpai, and you can call me Kagura-sama."

"..."

Ryoma Aburame was at a loss for words.

A newcomer trying to ride roughshod over him on his very first day?

As the loser, Ryoma Aburame couldn't really argue. The fact that this kid was willing to call him "senpai" showed at least a little respect...

Akihara Kagura looked at the silent Aburame Ryoma and asked with a smile, "Senpai, I've shown you so much respect, yet you won't even address me as Kagura-sama?"

"This…"

Aburame Ryoma looked somewhat embarrassed: "This goes against the will of Root..."

"The will of the roots..."

Akihara Kagura slowly shook her head, the boy's smile appearing somewhat innocent: "The will of Root is irrelevant to me; the will of Lord Danzo is the most important..."

"..."

This kid is really sensible!

Ryoma Aburame had to admit that this brat had actually grasped the key point!

"but…"

Ryoma Aburame still sensed something was amiss and explained, "Lord Danzo's will is the will of Root, the will of Root..."

"The will of Root is merely an extension of Lord Danzo's will!"

Kagura Akihara interrupted Ryoma Aburame, retorting, "Lord Danzo's will is the will of Root, but Root's will is not necessarily Lord Danzo's will... According to you, we obey Lord Danzo's orders, but does that mean Lord Danzo should obey the orders of Root?"

"You're right..."

Ryoma Aburame felt his brain wasn't quite working properly, and still wanted to prove his point: "However, we, the Root, are one with Lord Danzo..."

Kagura Akihara looked at Ryoma Aburame with displeasure and retorted, "We are not one with Lord Danzo. We are merely Lord Danzo's subordinates. We can sacrifice ourselves for Lord Danzo... but do you expect Lord Danzo to sacrifice himself for us?"

"Of course not."

Aburame Ryoma quickly shook his head.

Although Aburame Ryoma still felt something was off, he couldn't refute Akihara Kagura's point of view; the little girl made a lot of sense...

A feeling rose in Aburame Ryoma's heart again... How could this little guy be more loyal to Lord Danzo than he, a guard who had followed Lord Danzo for many years?

"Okay, stop thinking about it."

Akihara Kagura waved her hand, glanced at the messy room, and said, "Take me to see Lord Danzo first, and then arrange a room for me tonight. Put a bed in there beforehand."

"Can."

Aburame Ryoma agreed.

This long-time member of the Root organization believed that this minor matter did not violate any principles.

I went to bed too late last night!

Second update!
