Especially after Danzo Shimura's defection, what happened to Root during this period?

The arrival of these two members of Root made Itachi Uchiha instinctively feel that the Root organization had not collapsed.

Uchiha Itachi suddenly had a guess.

Perhaps Danzo Shimura's defection was just a pretense, a way to deceive the entire ninja world and allow Root to do things behind the scenes.

But this is just speculation.

Itachi Uchiha desperately wanted to know what had happened to Danzo Shimura, who had threatened him with his younger brother, and to the Root organization.

With this in mind, Itachi Uchiha decisively took action.

Whoosh whoosh~~~

Three shuriken flew out in graceful arcs, heading straight for Aburame Ryoma.

Aburame Ryoma was no pushover either, dodging the attack in a flash.

"Bad insects!"

hum~~~

Countless black insects flew out, like a dark cloud, enveloping Uchiha Itachi.

Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon!

Call ~

Uchiha Itachi swiftly formed hand seals, finally placing his right hand near his mouth to cover it. The next second, a fire dragon spewed out, instantly covering the black cloud of insects.

hiss hiss hiss~

A burning sound immediately came from the air, followed by the smell of burnt protein.

The battle between the two has officially begun!

the other side.

The battle between Shigaraki Tanuki and Kisame Hoshigaki has also begun.

The two remained in the same position, but Kisame Hoshigaki used even more force the next second.

Under the immense pressure of Samehada, Shigaraki Tanuki could only desperately resist it.

As a result, Samehada continued to press down, and it looked like it was about to engulf him.

Shigaraki Tanuki felt a bitter taste in her mouth; this power was too strong!

He wasn't a ninja specializing in individual techniques; he simply gained a lot of ninjutsu and experience through Naruto's blessing.

How could they possibly withstand such a humanoid monster?

Shigaraki Tanuki realized that she had to stay away in order to make the most of her strengths.

After figuring it out, he originally intended to separate immediately upon contact, using the force exerted by the other party to dodge backward. However, who was Kisame?

Not only is he experienced in combat, but he can also wield Samehada on his hands with ease.

Just then, Kisame seized an opportunity and suddenly pulled!

bang~

The bandages that had been wrapped around Samehada's body completely collapsed, revealing Samehada's original deep blue, barbed blade that resembled thorns.

"Ah~!"

Without warning, Xinle Tanuki got caught on the barbs, and blood spurted from her arm.

It's just a small wound; Shigaraki Tanuki doesn't care about it at all.

However, he discovered that his chakra had been reduced by more than half!

"you!"

He stared at his opponent in astonishment.

What kind of monster is this shark-like creature on the other side that even devoured his chakra?

"My Samehada isn't for chopping!"

Kisame's small eyes gleamed. "It's for slicing!"

"You're a really strange guy!"

"I speak," Shigaraki Tanuki said weakly.

That strange knife was indeed a monster; with a single strike, it devoured most of his chakra.

He cautiously surveyed the person opposite him, his gaze finally settling on the strange knife.

This sword must be the one that devours its own chakra, right?

Battles between ninjas are essentially intelligence battles.

If you're not well-informed about the enemy, you're in big trouble.

Take Shigaraki Tanuki, for example; it was easily defeated with a single blow!

"Fortunately!"

Shigaraki Tanuki thought to himself, "Naruto-sama's blessing is incredibly powerful. He used to have more chakra than he could use, but now that most of it has been absorbed, he still has enough chakra to be a Jonin."

not to mention

Shigaraki Tanuki took out a blue dumpling from her ninja tool pouch.

Gudong~

Swallow in one bite.

The Blue Carefree Pill melts instantly upon entering the mouth, transforming into surging physical and mental strength, which can be extracted as chakra in just a moment.

"This is a bit troublesome!"

Seeing the action on the other side, Kisame paused for a moment.

Xiaoyao Pill?

He had a love-hate relationship with her!

In previous battles, once the enemy's chakra was drained by his Samehada, they would become lambs to the slaughter.

But everything changed after Xiaoyao Pills became widely available.

The battle has begun again.

This time, Shigaraki Tanuki won't fall into the opponent's rhythm again.

He rapidly formed hand seals, and in just a moment, a ninjutsu was completed.

On the riverbank beside them, a wave of water surged up rapidly and in the blink of an eye formed the shape of a dragon.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet!"

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet!"

To Xinleli's surprise, the voice on the other end sounded almost simultaneously with his.

Just moments ago, upon seeing Shigaraki Tanuki's familiar hand seal sequence, Kisame had already guessed the opponent's ninjutsu, and he instantly formed the corresponding ninjutsu.

just

"You actually know my Hidden Mist Ninjutsu."

Kisame racked his brains but couldn't figure out how the other side had learned the Water Dragon Bullet ninjutsu.

"The Hidden Mist Village?"

Xinleli quickly extracted this information from the sentence.

I never expected the opponent to be a rogue ninja from Kirigakure. No wonder he was so skilled in using Water Release techniques.

No wonder he was carrying that strange ninja tool.

"Is he one of the Seven Swords?"

After a moment of thought, Shigaraki Tanuki realized that the strange ninja tool that could steal other people's chakra must be one of the seven most famous ninja swords of Kirigakure!

With this ninja sword in hand, the identity of the person opposite becomes obvious.

"The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist?"

Shigaraki Tanuki's mood immediately became heavy. Even though he was a scientific ninja and didn't know much about the famous figures in the ninja world, he still knew the name of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

"Oh? It seems you recognize me!"

Kisame drawled out his words, his small eyes gleaming with interest.

"what?"

Suddenly, a cry of surprise came from another battlefield.

It turns out that while Shigaraki Tanuki and Kisame were fighting, the other two people next to them had already exchanged blows several times.

Due to his fighting style, Aburame Ryoma's insects were completely countered by Uchiha Itachi, resulting in the loss of a large number of insects.

Even Ryoma Aburame, who already possessed a vast amount of chakra, felt a pang of regret at this loss, so he switched to using ninjutsu to fight Itachi Uchiha.

However, after several rounds of back and forth and a lot of effort, Ryoma Aburame finally defeated his opponent, only to find that what he had defeated was just a crow clone!

"When?"

Aburame Ryoma only felt that the other party was incredibly fast.

In the midst of their fierce battle, he actually managed to create a clone by forming hand seals, and he was completely unaware of it.

As expected of the Uchiha clan, who are hailed as geniuses!

Indeed, very strong!

Nearby, Shigaraki Tanuki looked over upon hearing the sound.

But with just that one glance, he fell for the trick.

"Gagaga~~~"

Countless crows took flight, and by chance, Shigaraki Tanuki encountered one of them.
