Chapter 195 |
Along the Naka River.
According to the orders of Godaime Danzo, more than a dozen Konoha Anbu are chasing Tsunade and launching a siege on her.
The charge is that she colluded with Uchiha and endangered the peace of Konoha.
However, for the Anbu, despite being fully prepared, this battle was still much more difficult than they imagined.
Tsunade.
She was once one of the Sannin of Konoha. Her strength may be slightly weaker than that of Orochimaru and Jiraiya, but she is not much weaker.
Now, not only has she transplanted Uchiha's Sharingan, but she has also learned the Yin Escape Phantasmal Body Technique from Dan, and her strength has increased again.
Swish, swish, swish.
In Tsunade's eyes, a pair of Sharingan eyes moved rapidly up and down, left and right, understanding the enemy's attack routes one by one, and she could dodge them calmly.
She punched out, and the fist covered with Yin Escape Chakra squirmed slightly at an extremely high frequency, creating numerous phantoms that captured the soul.
An Anbu was immediately hit and froze on the spot for a moment before being knocked away by Tsunade's punch.
"Ah!"
The man let out a scream. Not only were all his ribs broken, but his internal organs were also ruptured. He knocked down several big trees and died on the spot.
Bang bang bang!
Tsunade continued to strike, and no one who was an enemy of her punch was knocked away by her superhuman power and fell into the Naka River.
"Stop! Or we'll kill her!"
At this moment, a sharp shout sounded.
Hm?
Tsunade looked back and saw that two Anbu appeared, escorting Mitarai Anko.
At this time, Anko was covered in wounds, her fishnet underwear was torn, and an Anbu held her neck with a ninja sword, blood oozing from her neck.
"Tsunade-sama, leave quickly and leave me alone…"
Anko shouted towards Tsunade, but before she could finish her words, she was knocked unconscious by Anbu from behind.
"I hate people threatening me the most."
Tsunade said coldly, naturally she would not accept the other party's tactics and just surrender as the Anbu wanted, but…she couldn't bear to see Anko being killed by the Anbu.
Just when Tsunade felt troubled.
Fwoosh.
Following a burst of sound, something flew out of the woods on the other side of the river at an extremely fast speed.
It's a stone.
Several flat stones rotated at high speed during flight. After the bottom hit the water surface, they rose into the air and splashed a series of water splashes.
Someone is doing nonsense?
No, it’s a hidden weapon.
These stones were clearly aimed at the Konoha Anbu.
"Careful!"
An Anbu squad leader gave a low shout and reminded his companions. Then he picked up his ninja sword and slashed it out, trying to split the oncoming stones in half.
But he would never have imagined that a seemingly ordinary stone would have a layer of Yin Escape Chakra attached to its surface.
As long as eyes fall on it, people will have hallucinations.
The Anbu squad leader was caught off guard and was immediately hit by an illusion. He was stunned on the spot for half a second.
It was this half second that cost him his life.
Poof.
As if the stone had eyes, it accurately hit the Anbu squad leader's chest, passed through his heart, and flew out from his back with blood.
Still unabated, it finally roared and hit a big tree behind, deeply embedded in the trunk of the tree.
Plop.
The Anbu squad leader fell on his back, the mask on his face cracked, his expression full of horror, and his eyes closed.
The same scene also happened to other Anbu.
Puff puff.
Those pebbles flying from the other side of the river were invariably accurate. Each one hit a vital point, taking away the lives of several Anbu on the spot.
Among them, the Anbu who kidnapped Mitarai Anko were also included.
"Find the sneak attacker and kill him!"
The Anbu responded quickly. The four team members looked at each other, crossed the Naka River on the water, and rushed into the woods on the other side.
A few seconds later.
"Ahhh!"
Several screams sounded at the same time, then stopped suddenly, and then there was no more movement.
In that dark and deep forest, there seems to be some terrible monster hiding, making it impossible for people to go back.
Seeing this scene.
"Withdraw!"
The remaining Anbu of Konoha knew that the mission had failed, and in order to stop their losses, they ran away without hesitation.
Tsunade did not chase, but rushed forward to save Anko.
She used medical ninjutsu and briefly treated Anko, then raised her head solemnly and looked at the other side of the Naka River.
She saw a man of medium height and ordinary appearance slowly walking out of the woods and crossing the river.
"Who are you?"
Tsunade asked in a deep voice, staring warily at the strange man in front of her.
Although the other party came to help, it is still unclear whether this person is an enemy or a friend.
When the man heard the words, the bones and muscles on his face clicked. After a while of squirming, it turned into a familiar face.
It's… Uchiha Dan.
"You're not dead?!"
Tsunade couldn't help but widen her eyes with a look of shock, but deep down, she didn't seem so surprised.
"Are you looking forward to my death? It seems that you are disappointed."
As Dan said, he walked up to Tsunade and looked at Mitarashi Anko lying on the ground.
The next second.
His Mangekyou Sharingan suddenly opened, his gaze intersected with Anko's, and released a wave of pupil power.
Anko's expression suddenly became dull, her eyes lost focus, and the illusion was interrupted.
"What are you doing?"
Tsunade frowned and questioned.
"Don't worry, I'm just checking to see if she is an undercover agent of Konoha."
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with Anko, he lifted the illusion.
It is not Ideal to stay here for a long time.
"Come with me. If you go back to Konoha now, you will definitely be charged with treason against the village and you won't be able to survive."
Tsunade patted Anko on the shoulder and said to the latter.
Anko was targeted by the Anbu of Konoha because she tipped her off. With Tsunade's character, she would not leave Anko alone.
"I'm causing trouble for you, Tsunade-sama. I apologize."
Anko looked apologetic, and then expressed her willingness to follow Tsunade.
"Let's go find Shizune first, and then…"
Tsunade stopped mid-sentence because she didn't know where to go next.
After all, from today on, the ones chasing her are not only creditors, but also ninjas from Konoha and the four major ninja villages.
Snap.
At this time, Dan snapped his fingers.
"Gak."
With a hoarse cry, a crow quickly flew over the heads of the three people and landed on the back of Dan’s hand.
"This crow is my nephew's psychic beast. If you don't know where to go, let it lead the way to the Uchiha clan."
He said lightly.
Dan hasn't learned Tsunade's Yin Seal yet, so she can't just run away.
"I'm not going."
Tsunade snorted, showing no mercy at all, crossed her arms and turned away.
Anko stole a glance at Tsunade, then gave an apologetic and humble smile to Dan, quietly accepted the crow and stuffed it into her windbreaker.
And, she asked curiously:
"Master Dan, won't you… come with us?"
"I still have some good shows to watch."
Dan smiled slightly, and the muscles on his face squirmed again, returning to his previous appearance.
Then he turned around and drifted away in the direction of Konoha.
……
Konoha, above the Hokage Rock.
Since Danzo became the fifth generation head,the Hokage Rock has prohibited all personnel from approaching.
Because, buried inside the Hokage Rock are a large number of detonating talismans left by Genno. Once they are detonated, the back mountain of Konoha will completely collapse, thus burying the entire village.
This is Danzo's biggest trump card.
At this time, Danzo was leaning on crutches and stepping on the statues of past Hokage, looking down with a calm face, taking in the entire scene of Konoha.
Seeing that the village's reconstruction work was proceeding in an orderly manner, Danzo's old face showed a look of relief.
This is his village.
Under the governance of him, the Fifth Hokage, Konoha will definitely get better and better.
Although no one in the village understands him now, Danzo believes that——
One day, the villagers will understand what kind of sacrifices their Hokage has made for the village.
At this time.
A ninja wearing a mask, like a dark shadow, quietly appeared behind Danzo, knelt on one knee and reported to him:
"Hokage-sama, Tsunade escaped. In addition to Mitarai Anko, she also had an unknown accomplice who ambushed the Anbu and caused us heavy losses."
This is Danzo's confidant from root, codenamed "Shadow", and is now the Anbu captain.
Danzo was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said calmly:
"Forget it, let her go."
Although Tsunade is an eyesore, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if she can't be caught. Just drive her away.
Danzo is more concerned about another thing:
"What's going on with the major ninja clans in the village?"
Today, due to dissatisfaction with the peace treaty signed by Danzo and the four major ninja villages, the ninjas and villagers in the village launched a large-scale protest.
Although they were suppressed by Danzo, he did not believe that the people below would easily calm down their grievances.
Those guys are just temporarily yield on the surface, but secretly they must be planning a bigger move.
As expected, it was just as he expected.
"The Sarutobi clan seems to be planning something. The leader is Jounin Sarutobi Asuma." Shadow continued to report.
"Asuma? Hiruzen's younger son, huh."
Danzo sneered.
In his opinion, the Sarutobi clan is the biggest unstable factor in Konoha Village now.
Just like the Uchiha clan in the past.
Over the past few decades, under the management of Hiruzen, the Sarutobi clan has become the most populous clan in Konoha, with more ninjas than any other in the village.
Not long ago, Danzo bombed the Sarutobi clan's land, causing a large number of casualties, and then sent the third generation to prison.
It would be strange for people from the Sarutobi clan not to hate him.
In fact, even if there is no movement from this clan, Danzo still wants to get rid of this time bomb.
As for the time to take action, it will be tonight.
The sun sets in the west and night falls.
A dark cloud drifted under the moon, covering its light and making the earth darker.
On this dark and windy night this month, something is bound to happen.
The land of the Sarutobi clan.
The shadows of the trees were whirling, and the leaves swayed in the wind, making a rustling sound.
In a certain courtyard, there are many figures.
The elites of Asuma and the Sarutobi clan, as well as ninjas from small families such as Yuhi Kurenai and Gekkou Hayate, are gathering together to plot an uprising.
Their target is the Fifth Generation Danzo.
After awhile.
An Anbu female ninja wearing a white mask and long purple hair hurriedly walked into the courtyard and informed Asuma and others that Danzo was at the Anbu base.
This female ninja's name is Uzuki Yuugao. She is Gekkou Hayate's girlfriend and an internal agent for Asuma and others.
After Danzo became Hokage, although he carried out a round of cleaning and reorganization of the Anbu, after all, the time was too short and he did not have time to cultivate so many confidants.
Therefore, many ninjas who stayed in Anbu were only superficially loyal to Danzo.
Their true master will always be the Sandaime Hokage.
"Great. Now that we know where Danzo is hiding, we should seize the time and fight quickly."
Gekkou Hayate's eyes flashed and he suggested.
"Don't worry, just wait."
Asuma, however, calmed down and signaled everyone to calm down.
A few more minutes passed.
"Quick."
With a frog croaking, a small green frog crawled out of the well in the courtyard.
Asuma quickly stepped forward and caught the scroll spit out from the frog's mouth. On it was the contact information sent by Jiraiya.
"Jiraiya-sama said that he would take the lead to create noise in the village and attract the attention of the four major ninja village garrison. At that time, we will wait for the opportunity to attack the Anbu base in one fell swoop."
Asuma spoke out the battle plan with burning eyes.
When everyone heard this, they all looked excited.
This coup can be said to be a combination of inside and outside. The purpose is to kill Danzo and let the Sandaime return to power.
When the time comes, under the leadership of the Sandaime, Konoha will tear up the unequal treaty signed by Danzo and the four great ninja villages, and fight the enemy to the end!
A quarter of an hour later.
Boom.
The three toads from Myoboku Mountain fell from the sky at night and sat down in the camp of the Four Great Ninja Villages.
They are huge in size, possess powerful magic chakra in their bodies, and their fighting power is comparable to that of tailed beasts.
As soon as it appeared, it caused a huge commotion, causing the ninjas in the four major ninja villages to panic.
It’s not just them.
On Jiraiya's shoulders, two sages, Fukasaku and Shima, appeared in Sage mode again after many days.
Sage Art: Goemon!
As soon as Jiraiya appeared, he cooperated with the two Sage. Each of the three used oil, wind style and fire style to launch an extremely powerful combination of ninjutsu.
The principle of this technique is to use wind to strengthen the fire, and then the fire will boil the boiling oil, and then rely on the boiling oil with a temperature of thousands of degrees to devour the enemy.
The magma-like boiling oil swept towards the ninja alliance like a flood breaking a bank, burning everything in its path.
Hundreds of enemies were swallowed up by the boiling oil before they could escape, and died screaming, with no bones left.
This is the power of Sage art.
Whizz.
In the enemy camp, two mighty figures rushed towards Jiraiya like lightning.
It’s Kumogakure’s A-B Combo.
Last time, they teamed up to defeat Jiraiya, but at that time, Jiraiya did not use the sage mode.
This time, will the result be different?
Facing the Fourth Raikage and Killer B who were coming towards him.
Jiraiya's eyes narrowed, and he immediately lay down on the ground, lying on all fours like a toad. His white hair grew longer and hard, and he shot out like a heavy rain.
Sage Art : Thousand Hair Needles.
Countless hair needles were continuously shot at the A-B Cobo. Even Raikage's Thunder Armor and Killer B's Tailed Beast Coat were unable to withstand it.
After forcing the two men back, Jiraiya slapped his hand on the ground again.
Sage Art·Swamp of The Underworld.
A huge swamp with a diameter of several hundred meters suddenly appeared at the feet of the ninja coalition, swallowing thousands of people in an instant.
With his own strength, he was able to hold back the ninja alliance.
This is the true strength of the Pervert Sage Jiraiya.
The other side.
"Do it!"
Taking advantage of Jiraiya attracting the enemy's attention, Asuma and others rushed out from the Sarutobi clan and rushed to the Anbu base.
A bloody fight all the way.
With the internal support, everyone successfully captured the base and successfully found Danzo.
In a secret room, Danzo was leaning on a cane, with his back to Asuma and others, and seemed not surprised by their arrival.
"Danzo, for your own benefit, you did not hesitate to betray the village and become a dog for the four great ninja villages. For Konoha, we will kill you no matter what today!"
Asuma shouted righteously.
"Yeah?"
Danzo disagreed, turned around calmly, and said calmly, "It's a pity that you don't have that ability."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
Led by Hyuga Hiashi, a group of police officers rushed out of the darkness behind Danzo and stood in front of Asuma and the others.
In addition to them, there were also ninjas from the four major ninja villages who suddenly appeared outside the secret room and surrounded Asuma and others.
For a time, everyone faced a situation of being attacked from both sides.
Asuma's expression changed, realizing that he had been fooled.
Danzo deliberately used himself as bait to lure Asuma and others here, just to catch a turtle in a jar.
In a hurry, Asuma looked at Hyuga Hiashi opposite of him and shouted at him:
"Chief of the Hyuga Clan, you know clearly that Danzo is a sinner of Konoha, why do you still stand by him? Is this the choice made by the Hyuga clan?"
Faced with Asuma's doubts, Hyuga Hiashi just shook his head and said coldly:
"Maintaining law and order in Konoha is the job of the police department. Now, the village has finally achieved peace, and we can no longer let you people mess around."
In Hiashi's view.
Although the treaties Danzo signed with the four major ninja villages were unacceptable, they at least saved the lives of 20,000 ninjas and hundreds of thousands of villagers in Konoha.
Even if Asuma and others succeed in overthrowing Danzo, Konoha's situation will not get any better, and will instead slide into the abyss of destruction.
In order to protect the village, this time, the Hyuga clan sided with the Fifth Generation Danzo.
Both sides believe that they are just, and no one can convince the other.
Therefore, disputes and differences can only be resolved by force.
"Do it!"
Following the order from Hyuga Hiashi, a group of Hyuga ninjas and police force members launched an attack on Asuma and others.
The fight broke out.
Outside the Anbu base, a figure appeared on the roof of a building.
Watching the show leisurely.
"The Sarutobi clan seems to be doomed."
He kept looking at the battlefield and saw that Asuma and others fell into the trap set by Danzo, and their numbers were quickly reduced during the battle and they were struggling.
Tonight is probably the night when the Sarutobi clan will be exterminated.
Suddenly.
A handful of kunai pierced the night sky, whizzing towards him from behind.
Hm?
Dan tilted his head and avoided the kunai's attack, but there was a detonating talisman tied to it, and it exploded with a bang.
The fire and thick smoke immediately swallowed up Dan’s figure.
"Did you kill that guy?"
"He can't even avoid an attack of this magnitude. Just a nobody after all."
"Just clear out the enemies on the outside like this. There is no need to rush in and fight to the death."
As several voices sounded, several ninjas wearing Kirigakure forehead protectors appeared on the roof.
Astonishingly, it was Terumi Mei, Ao, Momochi Zabuza and others.
