Chapter 22
"Sir Sandaime, do you want to send some people to take a look?" As a relatively large department of Konoha, although the Root is not well known to the public, any major action of the Root involves all aspects of Konoha.
"Well, you don't need to intervene in this matter. Continue to monitor the Uchiha clan. Xiaochun, take your people to the Root and see what Danzo is up to."
Can't Danzo be quiet at this critical moment? Summoning the Root now... Is Danzo planning to attack Uchiha Madara? Or is he planning to attack Uchiha Itachi afterwards?
"I see. I also want to get familiar with the management of the Root."Humph, although it's a bit unpleasant to be controlled by Uchiha Itachi, but in the matter of seizing the power of the Root, Itachi has finally done something human.
…………
The roots are dark.~
""Master Danzo, all the people have been gathered, please give your instructions." Kurama Shuiyun respectfully looked at Shimura Danzo who was sitting on the main seat and reported.
"Well, without further ado, the goal of the Root tonight is to annihilate the entire Tenne clan, the Mitomon clan, the Shimura clan, and the remaining Sarutobi clan. Time is short and the mission is heavy. Prepare your equipment in a quarter of an hour and set off immediately."While issuing the order, Shimura Danzo began to remove the bandages wrapped around his arms and head, revealing a large transplanted three-magatama Sharingan.
The important property that I have collected over the years between the Second and Third World Wars will finally come in handy tonight. Evil Shimura clan, tonight I will use you beasts to sacrifice my Sharingan.
"Nani???"×N
""Master Danzo, did you say something wrong? You meant to annihilate the Uchiha clan, right?" Even Kurama Mizuyun, who had been trained to be calm, couldn't help but wonder if Master Danzo had given the wrong order. After all, who would lead the way in exterminating their own clan? Isn't this a psychopathic act?
"That's right, we are going to destroy Utane, Shimura, Mitomon and the Sarutobi clan. What? Do you want to disobey me?" Looking at the hesitant Kurama Mizuun, Danzo has already launched the first move of the tongue.
"No, no, I will follow your instructions."It seems that Konoha is going to be in big trouble. Unfortunately, this matter is not something that a small person like me can intervene in. I just hope that it will not affect the Kurama clan.
A quarter of an hour later~
"Are you all ready? Then let's go. Don't let any living person go. No matter if they are just one month old or ninety-nine years old, they will all be killed! Do you understand?" Danzo stared at the root members under his command with a cold Sharingan. No one dared to look him in the eye.
"Yes, Lord Danzo!"×N
"All right, let's go!"
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh
, swoosh, swoosh, a large mass of roots quickly rushed towards the territory of the Zhuanqin tribe, startling birds and causing animals to flee wherever they passed.
Swish, a root appeared in the Zhuanqin tribe.~
"Who is it? It's so late, what's the meaning of coming to my bed-changing clan?"
Swish, swish, swish~
Before the patrol personnel could react, several more roots appeared in front of them.
"Dressed like this? Are you members of the Root? Are you here to ask Elder Xiaochun to take over the Root?"
Hmph~
Without much nonsense, he cut his throat with a single cut. The Root is very particular about doing things cleanly and neatly.
"Let's go to the next place. There are a lot of tasks tonight. As for the corpses, Danzo has instructed that we don't need to worry about anything except the jonin.
Kurama Shuiyun shook off the blood on his knife and ignored the fallen patrolman. The corpses of this kind of garbage are not worth collecting.
"Yes, Lord Shuiyun"×12
One hour later~
""Master Danzo, we have finished the work. No one of the Tenshin clan is left alive. Here are the bodies of the thirty-five jonin." Kurama Mizuyun, covered in blood, led a group of Root members who were also covered in blood to respectfully report the results of the battle to Danzo, and handed over the bodies of the jonin that Uchiha Shinichi needed.
"Well, that's good. The Utatane clan is still valuable after all. Is there anything wrong with the barrier class?"After all, if there is no barrier class for such a big thing, it will definitely alert other people. Danzo is not afraid of this, but it will also increase the difficulty of the subsequent massacre of Shimura, Mitomon and Sarutobi clan.
"Reporting to Danzo, nothing happened in the barrier team, should we take a break before going to other places?"Looking at his subordinates who were seriously exhausted and injured, Kurama Mizuyun suggested to Danzo
"You're thinking of taking a break after such a small difficulty? We are now at risk of being exposed every minute and every second.
This matter must be resolved quickly.
If you want to take a break, there will be plenty of time for you to do so later.
Now set off for the Mitomon clan.
Don't worry, I will personally take care of it this time.
"You are so young, but you are always thinking of taking a break.
It seems that the training intensity of the root is still too low.
After this matter is finished, you must have a good special training.
"Yes, Lord Danzo!"×N
…………
At the same time, the root base~
"Mr. Xiaochun, there is no"
"There are none here either, Master Koharu."
Several Anbu searched the entire base, but did not see any Root members. Except for a few half-dead experimental subjects, there was no living creature in the entire Root.
"How come there is not even a ghost? What on earth did Danzo summon the Root to do? Could it be?"
Utatane Koharu looked in the direction of the Uchiha clan, and suddenly remembered Danzo's attitude towards Uchiha Itachi. Could this guy have organized the Root to attack the Uchiha clan in advance?
Damn, Danzo is too impulsive. No, I must inform Hiruzen to prepare for the worst.
"Leave two people here to watch, and the others will follow me to find the Third Hokage." If my guess is correct, the genocide of the Uchiha clan will happen tonight, and now is not the time to hold Danzo accountable.
Since Danzo has already taken action in advance, I must remind Hiruzen and Uchiha Itachi to take action, otherwise it will be difficult for the Root personnel to take down the Uchiha clan alone, and even if they are lucky enough to take them down in the end, there will probably be many fish that escape.
Late at night, in the Hokage's office~
Ever since the incident with Sarutobi Asuma, the prestige of the Third Hokage in the Sarutobi clan has plummeted, and Sarutobi Hiruzen usually stays in the Hokage's office unless there is something important.
Alas~ Although they know that there is something fishy about Asuma, the clan members obviously don't care so much. They just need an object to vent their hatred now. How should your father deal with you, Asuma... thump thump thump~
A chaotic sound of footsteps came from far away
"Hiruzen, something terrible has happened, and you still have the energy to smoke here? Hurry up and gather all the Anbu, it will be too late!" Utane Koharu hurriedly pushed the door open.
