The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

The fact that they remained inactive during the Konoha Crush and Pain's attack is the best proof of this.

Danzo truly believed that his rise to power would bring about the revival of Konoha.

Within the Root organization, although it may seem that everyone is under a cursed seal, there is indeed a group of people who would obey Danzo 100% even without the cursed seal. They truly regard Danzo as the hope of Konoha.

The mountain wind in front of us is just like that.

When Ah Xing heard Yamanaka Fu's words, his eyebrows twitched. After all, he was a special Jonin of Konoha Village. To be able to advance to this level of ninja was already considered a minor genius in the ninja world.

Chunin and Genin are the most numerous.

Ah Xing wanted to say something, but considering the personality of his master Danzo, he held back.

"It's best if you know what you're doing. I'll keep an eye on Lu Jiu and the others. Go and come back quickly!"

As Ah Xing took out a scroll from his pocket and handed it to Shan Zhongfeng opposite him, he spoke very seriously.

"Ah, don't worry, everything will go smoothly."

Yamanaka Kaze took the scroll, opened it, and absorbed all the information inside into his mind. He nodded.

"Whoosh!"

With a leap, he...

They left immediately.

Ah Xing also watched Shan Zhongfeng leave.

Their figures blended into the shadows, and they returned the way they came.

He also needed to conceal the traces of Shan Zhongfeng's departure.

What was once a reliable support can easily cause great damage when it becomes an adversary in the shadows. This is why, in the absence of a significant disparity in strength, internal problems are always more terrifying and direct than external threats.

Because you have absolutely no way of knowing who will be the stab in the back, or when they will strike.

Especially at critical moments.

Such backstabbing will cause even greater damage.

Not to mention that he is the only sensory-type ninja in the team, like Ah Xing. If he were to 'betray' them, the threat he would pose would be even more unpredictable.

Under normal circumstances.

Everyone is subject to his calculations.

Even someone as intelligent and resourceful as Shikaku would not be an exception. Who could have known that the subordinate Tsunade personally selected and trusted most would actually be a spy under Danzo?

It can only be said that Tsunade's time in power was still too short.

In just two years, and most importantly, after leaving Konoha for over a decade without a stable base of support, Danzo suddenly rose to power. This made it easy for problems to arise. If Hiruzen Sarutobi had been in power, most of Danzo's actions would not have been able to escape Hiruzen's notice.

That Third Hokage held absolute power in Konoha for over forty years.

Tsunade should be compared to her own Hokage teacher.

From the perspective of control, the difference is not small. In the original work, Danzo directly gave Orochimaru the list of the Hokage's direct ANBU members, and Tsunade only found out about it later. This is enough to show that Tsunade's control over the entire ninja village is really not enough.

Ah Xing was in this delegation.

It's just a microcosm.

In the village of Hidden Light, shrouded in darkness, nearly 90% of the inhabitants were fast asleep.

"whoosh"

In the narrow path on the edge of the village.

The figure of Shan Zhongfeng darted swiftly through the room.

The immense power of perception that permeates every moment and every place.

And that keen insight.

Based on the intelligence gathered previously, Yamanaka Kaze managed to evade over 90% of the night patrol personnel.

Even if only a small number of people are blocking the only way.

With his ability to evade the patrols of the guarding ninja, he could easily do the same.

They are the elite of the core.

He was one of Danzo's most trusted subordinates.

In terms of individual strength, they are definitely at the Jonin level. Even though they have now changed their name to Hidden Light Village, their foundation is still the old Takigakure Village. Compared to Yamanaka Fu, the gap is naturally very obvious.

They could easily traverse half of the ninja villages.

They arrived at the northeast corner of the ninja village.

'Is it in this area? Looks like we'll have to search slowly.'

The mountain breeze gently exhaled a breath of stale air.

A hint of coldness emanated from those golden pupils.

"Snapped!"

With a clap of both hands.

That immense perceptive power spread out as far as possible.

Like plowing a field, it scanned inch by inch.

They wanted to obtain as much intelligence as possible.

Taking risks for uncertain information, even at the cost of one's life, is a mindset and behavior that ordinary people cannot understand. But for ninjas, it is commonplace, let alone for a group like Root.

Among Danzo's subordinates.

There is no option to refuse the task.

Either complete the mission or die during it.

This is the destiny of those who belong to the root.

And it was during this time that Shan Zhongfeng spread his senses as wide as possible, searching little by little for any possible trace of Naruto's chakra.

“Da da da da”

Suddenly.

In a narrow alley between the two houses on the left.

A slightly crisp footstep sounded.

The figure was clearly approaching gradually.

At the moment I heard it.

"!?"

Shan Zhongfeng was suddenly jolted.

The chakra aura that I hadn't sensed before suddenly appeared within my perception range.

Even Shan Zhongfeng's expression changed drastically at this moment.

His body suddenly turned around, staring straight at the tall, slender figure that had now come into view.

"Going out on your own in the middle of the night, sigh, why can't you people just give us a break? It's the last night, and you still have to do this kind of thing."

The words that fell softly seemed to carry a hint of helplessness.

That pristine white dress, paired with that high-tied black ponytail, that slightly sickly pale face, and that extremely thin figure.

If an ordinary person were to see this...

They would only assume he was a sickly and frail young man.

however.

Yamanaka Fu could clearly sense just how terrifying the black-haired youth in front of him was; his terrifying chakra aura was almost tangible.

The moment it hits you.

Shan Zhongfeng's body trembled uncontrollably.

Just as he had first witnessed the terrifying power of the tailed beasts on the battlefield, Yamanaka Fu felt the same way when facing this black-haired youth.

This black-haired young man is none other than himself.

It was Muko, whom Menma trusted most and who was arguably the most powerful person under his command!

After all, Wugou has now completely mastered the power of enlightenment.

Furthermore, since he can freely transform into Satoru to fight, even the One-Tailed to Seven-Tailed might not necessarily be a match for Muku.

The difference in strength between the enemy and ourselves is obvious and readily apparent.

Therefore, even without seeing or sensing other enemies approaching.

Shan Zhongfeng's heartstrings were already on high tension.

With a single flip of his hand.

He pulled out a sharp kunai.

"Hehe, I still advise you not to resist anymore. Just come with me obediently. That way, you'll suffer less. Otherwise, Lord Menma told me that as long as you're alive, that's fine."

Looking at the fighting stance that Yamanaka Kaze adopted.

Wu Gou remained relaxed and calm, a slight smile playing on his lips, which also revealed a hint of coldness.

A mere Jonin.

Moreover, he is clearly a ninja specializing in sensory perception.

In Wugou's eyes, it was indeed not good enough.

Wugou is now considered to have reached the threshold of becoming a Super Shadow. His understanding of the characteristics of enlightenment and the way he manifests his power are truly unique.

Faced with Wu Gou's nonchalant threat.

The wind in the mountains didn't even twitch its eyelids.

You should know that if Danzo gives the order, even the Hokage will dare to assassinate someone from Root. So what if the enemy is strong?
