NOVEL WEB Chapter 17
Shimura Danzo didn't know that when he was running at high speed, a pair of red eyes behind them also locked onto his back.
Now there was no intact part of Shimura Danzo's body, except for the bandage on his arm, his clothes were torn, and his crutches had been thrown away somewhere.
He was now like an old version of a street fight in a Hong Kong movie, with a bandage on his right hand and a naked upper body, running wildly in the village.
Shimura Danzo probably didn't expect that his embarrassed posture was completely seen by others. Behind him and several members of the Root, there was a girl's figure, approaching him at high speed.
Uchiha Haruno's dress tonight looked no different from when she just left home tonight, except for some spots of blood and dust from the killing.
Although she had experienced some battles tonight, she didn't use her full strength. She mainly used instant body skills and swordsmanship, and almost no chakra was consumed.
The side effects of the only two Mangekyō Sharingan illusions were offset by the energy points of the gold finger. Of course, a full 400 energy points were consumed.
Therefore, if you look down from a God's perspective, this scene of chasing under the moon really gives Danzo, who is on the run, a sense of desolation of being at the end of his rope.
When the distance between the two sides was close enough for her to launch a body-flying technique to achieve a surprise attack, she decisively used the Lightning Release Body-Flying Technique: Flying Swallow. Connected with his own sword technique, Flying Dragon.
The target was directly aimed at Shimura Danzo.
""Lord Danzo, be careful!"
An Anbu beside Danzo noticed the attacking girl. His physical instincts, which had been trained by the organization, made him almost subconsciously block in front of Danzo and use his body to help Danzo withstand the blow.
Covering the huge gap in his neck, he seemed to want to say something in the end, but it was already impossible.
Blood foam invaded his respiratory tract from the cut on his neck, causing blood bubbles mixed with air to overflow from the corners of his mouth, but he was unable to spit out a word. Behind the mask with complex patterns at the root, the spirit in his eyes dimmed rapidly.
"Hurry up and protect Master Danzo! The remaining two Root members, one on the left and one on the right, tried to stop Uchiha Haruno to buy time for Danzo.
One threw the kunai in his hand, and the other tried to use physical skills to fight in close combat.
Uchiha Haruno dodged several flying kunai while leaning sideways. He used a clean side slash to cut off the forearm of the Root member, and then ran straight towards Danzo without stopping.
The Root member with a broken arm, as if he wanted to die with Haruno, rushed from behind like crazy. Haruno did not look back, but held the hilt of the sword with his backhand and stabbed him in the chest with a backhand.
At this moment, Danzo, who was fleeing like a mouse in front of her, suddenly stopped.
He took out several shurikens from somewhere and threw them at Haruno's position like a storm, covering his loyal subordinate!
This attack was indeed somewhat unexpected by ordinary people. It was really insidious and hard to defend against. However, the girl was not an ordinary person. She knew what kind of old coin Danzo was and had been prepared in her heart.
Seeing the high-speed spinning wind shuriken flying like a white porcelain plate, at this critical moment, the girl did not choose the seemingly reasonable option of using the body of the Anbu as a shield to receive the shuriken thrown by the opponent. Instead, she chose to retreat again and again, and finally used the Lightning Style: Thunder to avoid the attack range.
Sure enough, in the next moment, she found that the body of the Anbu member could not block the wind shuriken at all. His body was cut open like a rag, leaving smooth cuts, but the shuriken continued to attack from behind, and the remaining force was not reduced. Yang No, who used the Lightning Style: Thunder to dodge to the side, appeared behind the root ninja who had just thrown the kunai, and slashed like a thunderbolt directly to cut off the flesh and blood between the neck of the man.
Killing three people in a flash, it turned out that using a knife is more efficient and saves much more chakra than ninjutsu.
While Yang Noi was proud of her choice in her heart, her hands were not idle, and she continued to approach to a distance where she could use the instant body technique to attack Danzo at any time.
Facing Uchiha Yang Noi who was close to the attack distance, Shimura Danzo did not choose to continue attacking when she avoided his attack just now, but stood there, recovering his strength while looking at the girl and asked coldly;
"Don't you want to know why I do this? Let's go back to the question we asked earlier. Everything I do is for this village, even if it means getting my hands stained with blood.
"Over the past few decades, I have been called the Dark Ninja by the world. Some people still cannot understand what I have done. They are unwilling to admit that darkness has always existed in their ninja village, and they are even unwilling to face it.
"Some people may blame me for being extreme, but I think I can have a clear conscience for everything I have done. Even if I bear more sins, infamy and murder, I firmly believe that with my will, I will turn into a tree root to protect Konoha."
"This is the way I practice, the will of the root."
He suddenly raised one hand and pointed a finger, which scared Yang Na. She thought Danzo was going to seal and release a ninjutsu, and she almost used the instant body jutsu.
"But you didn't understand Konoha and made a hasty conclusion, and you brazenly made those remarks that turned black into white. From what you said, you said you wanted to promote���Today's Konoha, but what kind of Konoha do you plan to build?"
"I'm sure you all know exactly what I've done over the past decade, but why do you think you can achieve your ideal by using the power of your clan to govern a ninja village?"
"The so-called Konoha you want to establish is nothing more than allowing those with noble blood boundaries to enslave and rule the entire village forever."
"Everything is based on the interests of your family, and such a family is intolerable to me, Danzo. Therefore, I must wipe you out here."
The corners of Uchiha Yangno's mouth under the mask showed a hint of sarcasm. She would not jump into the verbal trap set by others.
"You, an old man who ran naked in the village in the middle of the night, are here to teach me how to do things? Why are you willing to use the art of verbal persuasion now? Is it because you know that your death is approaching and you want to delay as much time as possible?"
