Chapter 2 Danzo's Decision
At this time, the whole village seemed to have woken up. With a faint noise, the entire central avenue was full of people. From time to time, several ninjas wearing Konoha green vests could be seen walking through the street, looking relaxed. , walked by with a faint smile. .( )
Noisy and lively filled every corner of this village, making it appear extremely prosperous.
It seems that this is indeed a village full of peace and tranquility, and everyone has a satisfied smile on their face!
. .
The appearance of Uzumaki Mudao and his party of five people coming from the entrance of the village did not attract any special attention. They only attracted a few faint glances in the darkness, but then they disappeared.
Obviously, this period of time is the day when Konoha absorbs fresh blood from the periphery. Situations like this occur many times a day, and these ANBU guards do not take it to heart.
However, some ordinary female villagers pointed out and commented on Uzumaki Wudao with great interest, which subsequently caused a burst of good-natured laughter.
Uzumaki Mudao extended his spiritual power curiously, but he heard some comments such as 'cute and lovable', which made him feel helpless.
The body in this life was originally weak and did not show the slightest likability, but with Uzumaki Mudao's unremitting practice during this period, it gradually showed a healthy demeanor. His face was as white as jade, his eyes were big and clear, and he looked extremely handsome.
The four root ninjas gradually dispersed after entering the crowd of people on the street. Only one person who seemed to be the leader led the whirlpool to continue deeper.
After passing through the central street, the root ninja turned into a shadow alley without saying a word. Suddenly, Uzumaki Mudao's figure paused slightly, and couldn't help but tighten his eyebrows, but then he quickly caught up. , just a moment ago, the mental power he deliberately radiated had already detected the end of this alleyway. as well as. The scene behind the rusty iron door at the end.
It was an underground place full of darkness and conspiracy. world!
"It seems that this is where the roots gather!"
Uzumaki Wudao's eyes flickered, but his face remained calm as he followed the root ninja into the alleyway.
After taking one step forward, I realized that it was as if the entire village had been isolated. There was no noise in my ears, and all that was left was a dead silence.
"Bah. Bah!"
Only the faint sound of footsteps could be heard in the deep and dark road, which sounded extremely strange, and his figure was gradually submerged by the shadows in the dark alley.
. .
"Is that the kid!? Danzo!"
At this time, in front of a floor-to-ceiling window in the central attic of Konoha, two figures quietly watched Uzumaki Mudichi's young body gradually walk in. One of them, a middle-aged man with a dull face, was Danzo, and the other The figure who asked the question had his hands behind his back and was wearing a snow-white robe embroidered with flame lace. On the back of the robe were five large black characters that looked extremely dazzling - Sandaime Hokage!
The Third Hokage-Sarutobi Hiruzen!
The legendary ninja who once dominated the entire ninja world, the third generation Hokage, is known as the 'Doctor of Ninjutsu'!
He is similar in age to Danzo, but his bright eyes occasionally show a hint of vicissitudes of life, making him appear older.
"Yes, he is the child with unique abilities that I found from the Tokugawa clan! If not for this, he would have been reduced to ashes along with the family with a rebellious heart at this moment! It is impossible to survive at all. !”
There was a twinkle in Danzo's eyes, and then he replied calmly.
call!
Hearing Danzo's answer, the slightly thin figure suddenly turned around. His eyes were instantly filled with a touch of coldness, and he shouted in a low voice: "Rebellious heart. ( ) Could this be your private destruction? The rhetoric of the Tokugawa clan!"
"Humph!"
Facing the scorching gaze of the Third Hokage, Danzo smiled coldly and said indifferently: "Hiruzen, you are still so pedantic!"
"The Tokugawa clan is a golden warrior clan passed down from ancient times. It possesses powerful secret skills that even the Sage of Six Paths once praised! Although this power has become eclipsed with the rise of ninjas, if the Tokugawa clan learns With the art of chakra refining, what kind of strength this ancient warrior power will unleash. No one knows!"
At this point, Danzo's eyes suddenly erupted with a frightening coldness, and he continued: "Furthermore, from the memory of the ninjas selected by the last Tokugawa clan, I have discovered that they intend to spread the art of chakra back to the clan. Conspiracy!"
"Hmph! Do you hope that every member of the Tokugawa clan can reach the level of the Konoha White Fang!?"
Konoha White Fang!
The appearance of these four words made Sandai's eyes suddenly change. His expression changed, and a trace of hesitation flashed across his face.
Konoha White Fang.
A vague figure with a slender figure and a short blade suddenly appeared in his mind. The figure's lightning-like attack made the enemy only see a trace of white light passing through the sky. Then, blood fell and life withered. !
That man was once the most dazzling and sharp sword in Konoha, making enemies fearful. Even when he was active in the era when the "Sannin" ruled the roost, he was not inferior. He has been pursuing the ultimate in the way of the sword all his life, and what he has practiced is the skill of the samurai!
The power of the ninja's chakra combined with the skills of the ancient samurai shocked the entire Konoha hierarchy, even... They all had a hint of fear.
The white light that cut through the sky shone like a shooting star over Konoha, but it was only for a moment. .
Thinking of this, the third generation couldn't help but frown slightly. The loss of Konoha White Fang made him feel somewhat sad and sad.
Seeing the look on the third generation's face, Danzo couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth. He knew the mentality of his former companion very well. Although he seemed extremely pedantic at times, if there was any threat to Konoha, then It was enough to make his heart harden again.
Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Sandai's expression gradually calmed down. He slowly turned around and looked at the alley where Uzumaki Mudao had walked into before, and said in a low voice: "I think, those missing Tokugawa clan members The genin and chuunin must have fallen into the hands of 'Gen'!"
"Otherwise, I would not have discovered the secrets of the Tokugawa clan!"
"So. What are you going to do with that kid!"
"Humph!"
Danzo smiled coldly and said solemnly: "He will live in the darkness forever and become the second tooth of Konoha!"
As he said that, he said quietly in his heart: "Maybe. It's the third one!"
At this moment, the figure of another young man from the Tokugawa clan flashed in his mind, and a trace of excitement gradually appeared in his eyes.
"Isn't this too risky! Moreover, there doesn't seem to be any hatred in that child! Can't he grow up correctly under the guidance of Konoha!?"
After a moment of silence, Sandai said slowly, with a hint of struggle in his tone.
"Hiruzhan! You are still too soft-hearted. You were not so hesitant before! Any threat may exist, this is what the teacher once taught!"
Having said this, Danzo slowly turned around, turned his back to the figure and said calmly: "You are the light and I am just the darkness. This kind of thing suits me best, hum. However. As for the Tokugawa clan, I I hope the fourth generation will not get involved!”
As he spoke, his figure gradually walked away, and then there was a subtle sound of the door closing.
"Ah!"
Hearing the footsteps gradually getting away, Sandai sighed deeply, and then slowly closed his tired eyes.
. .
The underground range to which the roots belong is far beyond Uzumaki Mudo's knowledge.
After walking along the passage behind the iron gate for a long time, finally a glimmer of light lit up in the dim environment ahead. It was like an entrance to the light, filled with soft and faint light.
brush!
When he passed through the entrance, the scene in front of him suddenly changed drastically.
Uzumaki Mudao never imagined that there would be such a vast space deep underground in Konoha.
This is a vast bluestone square, with dozens of three-person-thick long steel pillars distributed around it, supporting the rock layer above the head, which looks extremely spectacular.
There are dozens of closed iron door passages all around this bluestone square, and the one that Uzumaki No Way passes through is one that has been opened.
But at this moment, his eyes did not pay attention to anything else, but to the center located directly in front of the bluestone square.
There, surrounded by dozens of root ninjas whose bodies were shrouded in black robes.
In the large area they surrounded, hundreds of children aged eight to eleven or twelve were standing or squatting together.
Among the group of children, a very familiar figure instantly jumped into Uzumaki Mudo's eyes, causing him to shrink his pupils.
Even though the figure was a bit taller than before, and his aura was several times more powerful, he still recognized it at a glance.
Perhaps sensing something, the figure with his head lowered slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of indifferent and cold eyes. The moment he saw Uzumaki No Way, a hint of shock suddenly appeared in the pair of eyes, but then a sinister and playful look emerged.
"Tokugawa. No way! Hahaha. I'm so surprised to see you here!"
He stretched out his slightly scarlet tongue and licked the corner of his mouth, then smiled coldly.
