Chapter 141 Lady Tsunade, should we open the jar first, or?
”Wood Release?!”
Hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi narrowed his eyes.
Root ninja attacked.
Wood Release.
These two clues are interesting.
”Specifically, we need to investigate further.”
The Hyuga clan’s secret guard said respectfully: “We will be able to investigate the details tomorrow.”
”No need to investigate anymore.”
Hyuga Hiashi shook his head: “When it comes to Wood Release, this is not something you can investigate. This matter ends here.”
”Yes!”
Hearing this, the Hyuga clan’s secret guard immediately nodded respectfully, indicating that he knew.
”Root, Danzo, attacked.”
Hyuga Hiashi frowned slightly.
Who would have the guts to attack Danzo in Konoha Village? The kid from the Tenten Ninja Tool Shop had done it once before.
It can’t be that she did it again this time? Shaking his head, Hyuga Hiashi stopped thinking about it.
And at this moment.
In the third base of the Root.
The atmosphere was oppressive and silent.
In the dark corridor inside the base, only a faint light flickered, and the light hit the cold wall, which seemed particularly heavy.
In this dark underground space, Danzo walked back in a panic.
His body was shaking and he could hardly support himself.
With every step he took, he could feel the severe pain coming from deep inside his body.
His breathing was rapid and chaotic, and his face was as pale as paper.
”Damn, there was such a thing.”
Danzo’s heart was boiling with anger, and anger and fear were intertwined.
He had never thought that he would encounter such a fatal attack!
When the missile exploded, he even thought that he would die on the spot.
The unprecedented threat of death still hovered in his mind, making it difficult for him to calm down.
Too fast.
So fast that he couldn’t even make a seal.
As Danzo stepped into the main room of the base, his body couldn’t help but stagger and almost fell to the ground.
Seeing this, several Root ninjas hurried forward to support him and carefully brought him to the treatment table in the room.
Danzo’s body could no longer bear it, his face was full of fatigue and embarrassment, and there was still blood at the corner of his mouth affected by the explosion.
Several Root medical ninjas quickly surrounded him and began to treat Danzo’s wounds.
The captain’s right arm was completely broken, and the wound was still oozing blood.
The medical ninjas were busy trying to stop the bleeding, but Danzo’s injuries were far more serious than what appeared on the outside.
”Danzo, please be patient for a moment.”
A medical ninja said respectfully, using medical chakra to stop the bleeding for Danzo and treat the burnt and broken right arm.
Danzo’s eyes were gloomy, he gritted his teeth and endured the pain, but the anger and fear in his heart could not be calmed.
He knew that he was on the verge of death this time.
How long has it been.
He had never felt so close to death! The speed and power of that thing left him no time to react.
If he hadn’t used Wood Release to protect himself in time, he would have become a charred corpse by now! Thinking of this, Danzo looked at his other bandaged arm with an ugly expression.
There was no chance to get out!
“Who is it? Who dares to attack me?”
Danzo’s voice was hoarse, full of anger and murderous intent.
Although the severe pain in his body made him unbearable, the anger in his heart was hotter than any pain.
As the leader of the root, he had never been so embarrassed.
The almost irresistible sense of death made him feel unprecedented fear.
And it was in the safe Konoha Village!
Recalling the explosion scene at that moment, Danzo’s breathing couldn’t help but become heavier.
Firelight, heat wave, shock wave. Every detail was deeply imprinted in his mind! The invisible pursuit made him feel as if he was in a desperate situation.
He was good at controlling all situations, but this attack completely broke his calmness and even made him feel that he could not control life and death.
In Konoha Village, such attacks were encountered one after another.
“Absolutely, definitely someone is secretly planning all this.”
Danzo’s heart was filled with anger.
He could feel that thisThis attack was no accident!
It was a carefully planned assassination!
The purpose was clear, and the means were mysterious! The enemy’s strength and means far exceeded his expectations, and even made him feel that the roots he had worked hard for many years were no longer an impeccable fortress.
Although there was a medical ninja beside him to treat his wounds, Danzo still felt a sense of depression and fear in his chest.
At this time, his thoughts were filled with a sense of crisis, and countless speculations and doubts flashed through his mind.
Who is it?
Why did they treat him so hard?
He has been in Konoha Village and has not done anything.
Some guys just want to retaliate against him, and there is no chance for them.
These consecutive attacks are definitely a guy with a purpose.
But there are only a handful of senior ninjas who can attack him in Konoha Village.
But no one has such means!
If he had not been in the root base during the first two attacks, he would have died for sure!
This time, he did not encounter anything while hiding in the third root base.
But he had just come out for two days and encountered such a horrible attack.
Thinking of this, Danzo’s twisted face showed a trace of pain, and the fear in his heart reached its peak.
Death, it turned out to be so close to him, so close that it was almost impossible to resist.
”Danzo, your wound has been treated, but I’m afraid it will take you some time to recover.”
At this time, the medical ninja said softly, with a trace of worry in his expression.
They had never seen Danzo in such an embarrassed state.
Especially the almost destroyed right arm, which was enough to prove the severity of the attack.
Danzo raised his eyes from the dim light, and his pupils burned with uncontrollable anger.
“Find the person who attacked me, at all costs.”
”I don’t believe it. There is no trace. Check other ninjas who have entered the village recently.”
His voice was low and cold, with murderous intent, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from his teeth.
Although his heart was full of anger and fear, Danzo still forced himself to calm down.
Death was imminent, but he had not lost yet.
He must find the enemy and eliminate all threats before he can regain the power to control the situation.
Otherwise he can only hide in here.
Being forced to hide in the Root base and unable to go out.
And staying in the Root base and not wanting to go out.
These are two different things! Hearing Danzo’s words, the Root’s medical ninjas quickly went down to notify the rest of the Root ninjas.
But in just a few seconds, Danzo was the only one left in the room.
Danzo lay on the bed, his body trembling slightly.
Despite simple bandaging and treatment, the broken right arm still made him feel extremely painful and weak.
Danzo’s forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his breathing was still rapid, but his cold eyes always revealed determination and madness.
”I can’t stay here with this injury.”
”I must recover my strength and find the murderer behind the scenes as soon as possible!”
”I must grow my arm again!!”
Danzo clenched his teeth, his voice low and hoarse.
As Danzo struggled and roared, he slowly urged the chakra in his body and concentrated it on the broken right arm.
For a moment, the hidden cells in the body began to stir, as if a long-dormant power was gradually awakening.
As Danzo mobilized his whole body chakra, a sharp pain began to come from the root of the broken arm, as if tens of thousands of tiny needles pierced his bone marrow at the same time.
“Ah!”
Danzo’s face was grim, he clenched his teeth, and endured the tearing pain. His eyes were wide open, veins on his forehead bulged, and he seemed to be nailed in the abyss of pain.
”Ugh!”
Danzo groaned, and his body trembled slightly in pain.
But his eyes were still fierce, as if he wanted to control his body by will.
He could already feel the cells at the root of the broken arm were dividing and reorganizing crazily.
Slowly.
The bones began to extend and the muscles were entangled.
The skin grew out soon after.
A few minutes later, a new arm appeared on the right arm!
The shape of the arm was complete, but the skin color was strange and frighteningly white, as if it had never seen the sun, without any blood color.
At this time, Danzo’s forehead was full of sweat, and his painful expression gradually eased.
But this did not make himNot a bit relaxed.
Slowly raising the new arm, he felt the fingers stiff and dull, as if they did not belong to him.
Danzo stared at the new arm coldly, as if he was examining a monster-like object. ”Damn it!”
Danzo cursed in a low voice, feeling the tingling and discomfort from his arm.
Although the arm had been reborn, its color and touch were obviously different from those of a normal arm.
The strangely white skin seemed to be silently mocking him.
At the same time, it reminded him that although the power of this arm was strong, it was also full of instability.
As time went by, Danzo gradually adapted to the new arm.
Gritting his teeth, he tried to move his fingers.
Although it was still a little stiff, the strength and function of the arm had basically recovered.
Danzo began to try to make a fist, feeling the power gradually returning to his arm.
Just as Danzo was trying to adapt to this arm, the door was suddenly pushed open and a Root ninja walked in quickly.
As soon as he came in, he knelt respectfully on the ground and whispered: “Danzo-sama, Hokage-sama sent someone to inform you that he hopes you can go to the Hokage’s office immediately. He has important things to discuss with you.”
Hearing this, Danzo’s eyes suddenly turned cold, full of disdain and coldness.
He slowly raised his head and looked coldly at the kneeling Root ninja on the ground, with undisguised anger in his tone: “Tell him that I was attacked and can’t leave the Root base now. If he wants to talk, he can only come to me!”
”Also ask him why there are continuous attackers in Konoha Village!”
”Hiruzen, he must give me an explanation!”
Danzo’s voice was full of determination and toughness, and he didn’t give Sarutobi Hiruzen any face at all.
At this moment, the anger and resentment in his heart have surpassed everything.
No matter what Sarutobi Hiruzen arranged, he was unwilling to surrender!
Especially in this weak and embarrassed state.
Hearing this, the Root Ninja showed a trace of hesitation, but soon lowered his head and responded respectfully: “Yes, Master Danzo, I will tell the Hokage’s Anbu truthfully.”
As he said, he left quickly.
And Danzo smiled coldly, his eyes were still cold, as if looking through the wall at the Hokage’s office.
Raised his right hand slightly and continued to move.
Although it was not flexible enough, this new arm was gradually recovering its strength.
”Who is the guy who attacked me?”
”This method is like time and space, can it be possible.”
Danzo suddenly thought of something, and his eyes revealed a hint of sinisterness and viciousness.
“There is still a lot to do with this arm.”
Danzo whispered to himself, slowly moving his fingers, his eyes gradually became firm and cold.
”Danzo is seriously injured?”
Hokage’s office.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the Anbu who had returned in front of him, and frowned as he listened to what he said: “He didn’t even see the means of attack?”
”Yes, Hokage-sama.”
The Anbu ninja said respectfully: “According to the investigation of the medical department, the dead ninja was a Root ninja.”
”Advisor Danzo and the Root ninja were walking on the streets of Konoha Village when they were suddenly attacked. The attack was very strange, and it was suspected to be a Wood Release ninja.”
”But there was another violent explosion, which seemed to be caused by the explosion of the detonating talisman, but with so many detonating talismans exploding, it was impossible for Advisor Danzo to avoid it.”
”And during the explosion, Advisor Danzo could have used the instant body technique to leave, but he was seriously injured. There are still many doubts, which need to be investigated.”
”But Advisor Danzo did not cooperate, so we don’t know how to investigate further.”
”Hmm”
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen smoked his cigarette in silence.
After a long while, he slowly said: “Cooperate with Danzo’s root and mobilize the Anbu personnel to patrol. This situation must not happen again.”
”People from other ninja villages have arrived one after another in the past few days. If the ninjas from other ninja villages are attacked, it will be even more troublesome.”
”In short, everything is under martial law. Report any situation to me as soon as possible.”
”Yes!”
Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen’s words, this Anbu ninja immediately went down to make arrangements.
In the following time.
The Anbu ninjas were dispatched, and more ninjas patrolled the streets.
Even if ninjas from other ninja villages came in one after another,When Yecun registered, he was frightened by the tense atmosphere and became cautious.
This lasted for five days, and no suspicious clues were found until the day of the Chunin Exam.
”Hokage-sama.”
Hokage’s office.
When Sarutobi Hiruzen just came, there was already an Anbu ninja waiting for him, saying respectfully: “No useful clues have been found in the past few days, and Danzo-sama has not given any clues.”
”Well, I know.”
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded gently and ordered: “Put the focus on today’s Chunin Exam for the time being.”
”Whether it is the written test in the morning or the second test in the afternoon, a large number of people are needed, and the original plan is cancelled.”
After searching for five days without finding any clues, even if Danzo was frustrated, he had to accept it slowly.
Now that the Chunin Exam is here, he has no time to fool around with Danzo.
However, it is indeed a good thing that Danzo’s Root has completely disappeared in the past few days.
Even if there are Root ninjas outside to investigate, it is almost nothing.
So far, he is still very curious.
Who is attacking Danzo one after another.
”Yes”
Hearing this, the Anbu nodded and said; “We have arranged the written test site for the Chunin Exam, and candidates have entered one after another.”
”By the way, Lord Hokage.”
While speaking, the Anbu ninja thought of something and hurriedly whispered: “There was a message from outside the village yesterday that Lady Tsunade has been heading towards Konoha Village and is expected to arrive in Konoha Village today. Do we need to pick her up?”
”Huh? Tsunade is back?”
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen was shocked.
Why did Tsunade come back for no reason?
This is too sudden.
“No need.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head gently and said, “Don’t pay attention to that. She must have something to do when she comes back. Don’t disturb her.”
“Yes.”
Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen’s words, the Anbu ninja left immediately.
Sarutobi Hiruzen smoked a cigarette, very confused.
Why did Tsunade suddenly return to the village? Is it for the Chunin Exam?
But this is not Tsunade’s style.
While Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking and confused.
Konoha Village.
Shizune and Tsunade looked at the gate in front of them and squinted their eyes.
Finally back.
”Tsunade-sama!”
The two ninjas stationed at the gate of Konoha Village also saw Tsunade and Shizune coming, and suddenly widened their eyes and were shocked.
Then they hurriedly greeted them respectfully.
“Yeah.”
Tsunade nodded and walked directly into Konoha Village with Shizune.
The ninja guarding the gate hurried to report.
”Yeah?”
As soon as she entered the streets of Konoha Village, Tsunade saw seven or eight ninjas patrolling back and forth. She immediately raised her eyebrows and said, “Why are there so many ninjas patrolling?”
Even if it was the Chunin Exam, there shouldn’t be so many ninjas patrolling on one street.
After all, the Chunin Exam had just started and there were no spectators.
And she could feel that the atmosphere in the village was not quite right.
”By the way, today is the Chunin Exam, right? It’s a pity that I don’t know what the Chunin Exam is like.”
”Compared to this, I’m more curious about what the noise was a few days ago.”
”I don’t know, maybe it was caused by outsiders.”
Some villagers of Konoha Village were talking in a low voice while walking, and the sound reached Tsunade’s ears.
“Tsunade-sama, shall we go back first?”
Shizune, who was following Tsunade, whispered: “It seems a bit too ostentatious to go to the mysterious jar shop right after entering the village. I don’t know if the shop is open so early.”
”And we also need to collect some information and intelligence to understand the current situation.”
”The atmosphere in the village is very tense. It feels like more than just the Chunin Exam.”
”Well, no need to go back.”
Hearing Shizune’s words, Tsunade laughed heartily: “Go directly to Ichiraku Ramen and learn about the situation by the way.”
As she said, Tsunade took Shizune to Ichiraku Ramen.
Soon.
When the two women arrived at Ichiraku Ramen.
They saw that there were no customers in the ramen shop.
Hand-beat was kneading the dough skillfully.
Sensing someone coming in, she immediately laughed heartily.: “Welcome, please wait a moment.”
”Uh, Lady Tsunade!?”
When he saw the familiar Tsunade, he typed a surprise: “You are back.”
The monthly ticket has increased a lot in the past two days. Today I will start with 5 chapters, 25,000 words, and see if I can update 30,000 words a day. I will update two chapters in the morning.
