Chapter 165 Tenten: It’s bad, it’s bad; Sarutobi Hiruzen: What the damn Danzo wants to do
Seeing the shadow that turned into a real person looking at her, Tenten’s heart suddenly tightened, and her heartbeat seemed to skip a beat.
The body seemed to be frozen, and she didn’t even dare to breathe.
She could feel that the look had some kind of inexplicable deterrence, as if forcing her to look directly at this released alien.
It was obviously just a shadow, but it exuded an invisible sense of oppression.
It seemed to imply that it was no longer the lifeless darkness.
It was an existence with independent consciousness and even beyond ordinary people.
“It’s bad.”
“This guy won’t do anything to me, will he?”
Looking at the other person’s eyes, Tiantian’s forehead broke out in a layer of cold sweat, and her heart beat so fast that it seemed to jump out of her chest.
But even though her hands were shaking slightly, Tiantian was trying to calm herself down.
”Will this guy have the memory of a real person after becoming a real person?”
”Looking at me like this, he must know that it was me who did it.”
”What does he want to do?”
Tiantian’s eyelids twitched violently.
She felt that this shadow seemed to be out of control now.
What should she do if she was targeted by this guy? When Tiantian thought so, the shadow that had become a real person did not move at all, but instead showed a very “kind” smile.
The smile was weird and unnatural, as if a puppet who had just learned to laugh was stiffly imitating the expression of a human, but there was no real emotional fluctuation in his eyes.
That smile made Tiantian feel uncomfortable, and a chill ran down her spine.
The real shadow stared at Tiantian for a few seconds, as if confirming something.
Then he turned around naturally and walked towards the street in the distance.
His steps were light and steady, as if he had really turned into a normal person.
”Just like that, he left?”
Seeing this scene, Tiantian was shocked.
Just left?
Looking at the gradually receding back of the real shadow, Tiantian’s uneasiness did not decrease, but became even stronger.
She always felt something was wrong.
But she couldn’t tell what it was specifically.
Subconsciously, Tiantian glanced at the shadow of the Root Ninja that was gradually going away.
The dead darkness had already stopped, as if it had really become a lifeless shadow, sticking to the ground in a hollow manner, without any reaction.
“Ding San, why did you leave your post without permission?”
The next second, another Root Ninja saw his companion leaving and frowned: “It’s not time to change shifts yet.”
However, the shadow that turned into a real person did not say anything to the words of this Root Ninja, turned a deaf ear to him, and walked away directly.
”Uh.”
Seeing this scene, he was shocked and felt something was wrong instantly.
Every member of the Root has a strict task schedule and will not leave his post without permission.
But this “companion” in front of him actually left here as if he didn’t care about anything? ”Hey, Ding San, what are you doing?”
This Root Ninja stood up, his voice was cold and low, but with a hint of warning.
What happened in the Root now made him more vigilant.
However, facing his repeated questioning, the “companion” turned a deaf ear to him, didn’t even turn his head, and continued to move forward without hesitation.
“Something’s wrong!”
The Root Ninja’s face changed, and he instantly realized that the situation was not normal.
He took a step forward without hesitation, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot, and appeared in front of the “companion” as fast as lightning, trying to intercept the other party’s way.
“Ding San, you are violating the order of Danzo-sama!”
After intercepting the “companion”, the Root Ninja spoke coldly, with a hint of anger in his eyes.
However, what surprised him was.
The shadow that had become a real person just raised his head slightly and looked at him with emotionless eyes.
Then he ignored it, as if the person in front of him was just air.
The Root Ninja frowned more tightly, and his intuition told him that there was definitely something wrong with the guy in front of him.
Even if it was his companion.
Seeing that he was still ready to leave, he quickly formed a seal without hesitation, and his hands flew
”Boom!”
A earth escape technique, Earth Flow Wall, instantly rose between the two, intending to block the other’s path.
However, to his astonishment, the other’s reaction was exactly the same.
The shadow immediately formed a seal and quickly used the same earth escape technique, Earth Flow Wall.
”Bang!”
The two solid earth walls collided with each other, causing a violent impact, with gravel flying and dust splashing.
”How is it possible?”
The root ninja took two steps back, looking shocked and angry.
He was angry that this guy actually attacked him, and he was shocked that the “companion” in front of him had not spoken yet, as if he was his mirror image, completely imitating his every move.
What’s more terrifying is that the movement is not only precise, but also has a sense of familiarity, as if… he is learning!
He doesn’t remember that this guy can be as proficient in this ninjutsu as himself.
Something is wrong.
Something is definitely wrong! The Root Ninja’s heart was instantly filled with a storm, and his mind was filled with countless questions and uneasiness.
Then he gritted his teeth in anger and tried to attack again.
”Boom!”
He quickly formed a seal and summoned a wind escape·Great Breakthrough. The wind rolled up and rushed towards the opponent with great force.
And the shadow was not to be outdone. He also quickly formed a seal and used the same wind escape·Great Breakthrough.
”Boom!”
The two wind currents collided violently, forming a huge cyclone.
In an instant, dust flew around, trees swayed, and even nearby buildings were shaken.
”What the hell is going on?!”
The Root Ninja felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.
His attacks seemed to be ineffective. Not only was the opponent not injured, but he also completely copied his ninjutsu, as if he was practicing some weird battle.
This Ding San doesn’t have a Sharingan either.
”There is definitely something wrong.”
”We must capture him and hand him over to Danzo-sama.”
Without any hesitation, he decided to capture this guy in an instant.
This guy is not right, not normal.
No matter how many doubts he has in his heart, he must capture this guy first.
”Boom!”
When he took action, the “companion” on the opposite side also took action.
”Boom!”
The battle between the two sides gradually escalated, and the collision between ninjutsu and ninjutsu continued to set off huge roars, shaking all directions, as if the whole street was shaking with their battle.
The movements of this root ninja became more and more impatient, while the shadow that became a real person became more and more calm, as if enjoying it all.
Suddenly, the shadow’s eyes changed, and a trace of mockery flashed in those ruthless eyes.
It was no longer just imitating, but began to attack actively.
Its movements were swift and precise, as if it had seen through all the intentions of the Root Ninja. After several attacks, it forced the Root Ninja to retreat again and again, in a state of embarrassment.
”What’s going on.”
The Root Ninja’s heart was already filled with fear and anger.
He simply couldn’t understand what was going on with this monster in front of him.
If it was a transformation technique, there was no reason why he hadn’t spoken until now.
The other party’s eyes were cold, as if he had completely changed into a different person. He felt something was very wrong.
Even the fighting style had changed.
He could easily tell that he was constantly imitating him.
But how could this be possible.
What’s the point of imitating him in battle?
This guy’s talent shouldn’t be that good at all.
The Root Ninja gritted his teeth and rushed forward again.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The two sides fought again.
Every move and every style of the Root Ninja carried a ruthless killing intent, but the shadow on the opposite side, who had become a real person, was like a ghost, moving swiftly and almost without any pause.
The Root Ninja’s forehead was covered with cold sweat. He quickly formed seals with his hands and roared as he used his most proficient fire escape ninjutsu.
”Fire escape: Great Fireball Technique!”
With a sudden inhalation, the hot chakra in his chest quickly condensed.
Then a huge flame gushed out of his mouth, forming a blazing fireball, rushing straight towards the shadow.
The flames rolled, instantly burning the surrounding air extremely hot, and the firelight reflected on the tense and angry face of the Root Ninja, as if to devour everything in front of him.
However, the shadow who had become a real person seemed to have anticipated the arrival of this move.
He quickly formed seals, his hands moved as fast as afterimages, and he performed wind escape at the moment when the flames approached.
”Boom!” Using the wind to detonate the power of the fireball.
The wind escape and the fire escape intersected, forming a violent explosion. The flames mixed with the strong wind rolled wildly in the air, sparks flew, and the heat wave rushed in, burning the surrounding trees and buildings black.
The root ninja was shocked by the sudden explosion and staggered back, his eyes narrowed into a slit, staring at the center of the explosion.
The smoke was filled, and the air was filled with a thick smell of gunpowder, which made people suffocate.
When the smoke gradually dissipated, the root ninja found that the shadow that had become a real person was no longer there.
It seemed to disappear without a trace in an instant, leaving only the charred ground and hot air around it.
“Run away?!”
Seeing the other party fighting with him and fleeing directly from the spot, the face of this Root Ninja changed drastically.
This guy has been wrong just now.
There is no intention to fight him to death, but to find an opportunity to evacuate.
However, as a Root Ninja, is it crazy to disobey the order of Master Danzo?
Thinking about the other party’s imitation of his fighting skills just now, it seems like he is testing and learning.
”This weird situation must be told to Master Danzo.”
Without the slightest hesitation, he decisively chose to leave as well and report the situation here to Master Danzo.
At this time, the explosion here also attracted the attention of the patrolling ninjas of Konoha.
One by one, their faces changed drastically and they hurried here.
“Who are you? How dare you fight on the street at this time?”
”Damn it, such a large-scale battle, don’t you know that it has violated the order of my Konoha Village?”
”There are Anbu ninjas here, go and notify the Anbu ninjas.”
”Also report this matter to Lord Hokage, such a large-scale ninjutsu collision is not an ordinary ninja fight.”
One after another, people made angry voices and hurried over.
”It’s bad, it’s bad, we have to find Lin Mo.”
The third floor of Tiantian’s Ninja Tool Shop.
Tiantian, who witnessed all this, swallowed her saliva and decisively chose to leave here.
This shadow scissors is so dangerous.
She still felt that she had to find Lin Mo to ask.
“There was an explosion at our doorstep?”
”Don’t go out, just stay here.”
In the Tiantian Ninja Tool Shop, Tiantian’s father and mother, who were forging ninja tools, looked at each other in confusion.
The noise outside, the place where the battle took place was not far from their shop.
”Is it caused by this hidden weapon?”
Tiantian’s father looked down at the butterfly dart in his hand subconsciously with a solemn expression.
This thing is not so unique.
Although it is more suitable as a hidden weapon than kunai, he believes that with his sale, there will definitely be ninja families imitating it, which is not difficult.
He also knows that his family’s ninja tool shop is supervised by two root ninjas arranged by Danzo.
But who in the ninja village can fight against the root ninjas? Are you crazy? While the two looked at each other, Tiantian had already run down, left his shop, and headed straight for the jar shop.
On the way, Tiantian saw many people running to the place where the battle took place.
Not only ninjas, but also ordinary people.
At any time, there will be no shortage of people watching the excitement.
”What’s wrong?”
When Tiantian rushed to the jar shop, Lin Mo opened his eyes and looked at Tiantian who was running in a hurry, with a strange expression.
Is there something urgent in such a hurry? ”Lin Mo, I cut off the shadow of the root ninja.”
Tiantian quickly told everything he had just done and seen, and Lin Mo’s eyelids twitched.
Is this kid so strong in fighting?
“So, the shadow that turned into a real person has a strong learning ability. He should thank you for turning him into a real person in the end?”
For a moment, Lin Mo pinched his chin and fell into deep thought: “It’s unexpected that he didn’t turn into evil.”
After all, in his opinion, the shadow cut by the shadow scissors will become more evil.
But what is currently shown is the terrifying learning speed.
No, it’s not the learning speed, it’s re-experiencing one’s own body memory.
The shadow can’t speak, but it can “learn” to speak again through others speaking, and re-master the skills mastered by its own body.
I haven’t tried the shadowTiantian tried the scissors.
This thing is very dangerous.
“Yes.”
Tiantian looked worried: “Will he not tell others about my help to him?”
After all, that look clearly showed that she knew that she was using the scissors to cut off the shadow.
“Probably not.”
Lin Mo pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, “First of all, he didn’t say anything, and secondly, he should be grateful to you, but he is in Konoha Village and is a Root Ninja, so he must have the curse seal placed by Danzo.”
“Well, don’t worry too much.”
The Root Ninja who was ordered by Danzo to guard the door of Tiantian’s Ninja Tool Shop and supervise the butterfly darts was not an ordinary Root Ninja.
He must be Danzo’s assassin.
Danzo definitely controls the life of this ninja, not just the seal of extermination of tongue disaster.
“Huh.”
Hearing Lin Mo’s words, Tiantian let out a long sigh of relief.
That’s great.
When Tiantian breathed a sigh of relief.
On the other side.
Hokage’s office.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also received the message, frowning: “Have you found out what the battle was?”
”The Anbu is investigating, and it will take some time.”
The purple-haired Anbu ninja whispered: “It just happened, I just sent someone to investigate.”
”Compared to the previous battle, I guess it may be related to Orochimaru.”
”Orochimaru.”
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned.
While smoking, he pondered: “Nowadays, anyone who can take part in the Chunin Exam is a good candidate for him.”
”And I have arranged for the Anbu ninja to go to the Forest of Death. He should have left.”
”He should not care about other ninjas in Konoha Village.”
”But the battle on the roof of the hospital before was very strange.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up a document beside him and frowned.
It detailed that several patrolling ninjas saw something like a terrifying black barrier on the roof of the hospital.
Not only were there strong traces of fighting at the scene, but there was also a terrifying amount of chakra left.
Orochimaru seemed to have fought with someone.
”Is it Kakashi and the others? They were close at the time, but they didn’t fight.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned.
He knew too well what kind of person Orochimaru was.
I came to Konoha Village for Uchiha Sasuke.
Since the curse seal has been planted on Uchiha Sasuke and not on others, it means that others are not as good as Orochimaru.
And Orochimaru has no reason to stay in Konoha Village.
Why is he still in Konoha Village?
And they fought in the daytime? But if it wasn’t Orochimaru who did it, then who would it be? The jonin of other ninja villages would not have the courage to fight and destroy so openly in the daytime.
Sarutobi Hiruzen fell into deep thought.
Soon.
Anbu ninjas arrived quickly and reported respectfully: “Hokage-sama, there are traces of root ninjas fighting at the scene. Apart from this, there are no traces of other ninjas.”
”Traces of root ninjas fighting?”
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked shocked: “Why is there still a root?”
Isn’t that guy Danzo seriously injured now?
He is shrinking his Root Ninja.
He can also let his Root Ninja fight.
”Yes, there are only traces of the battle of the Root Ninja, nothing more.”
The Anbu Ninja who came to report said in a strange tone: “Neither side even used ninja tools, there are only some traces of ordinary ninjutsu. As for more specifics, you need to ask Danzo’s consultant.”
”Did the Root Ninja capture someone?”
Suddenly, Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of Danzo’s previous actions, his face darkened, and he said in a deep voice: “Immediately send someone to ask Danzo who he captured again, and whether he attacked the Hyuga clan again? Is he crazy?”
”Also continue to check the situation at the scene and pay attention to the Hyuga clan.”
”Yes.”
Hearing this, the Anbu Ninja nodded respectfully, turned around and left quickly, heading for the Root base.
And at this time.
In the Root base.
The Root ninja who had returned reported what had just happened to Danzo and stood in front of Danzo honestly.
