343. Not in time

PreviousBack to directoryNext
On the treetop not far away, Hinata Zou hid his figure, watching the scene of Danzo fooling the children in front of him.

In the ninja world, when it comes to tricking children into working for themselves, Orochimaru is undoubtedly the strongest. With his personal charm alone, he has attracted countless followers to work hard, and he has established the Sound Ninja Village based on his personal charm.

While he was still alive, there was Kimimaro who willingly gave his body to become a vessel.

After his death, there were loyal subordinates like Kabuto Yakushi who tried their best to prepare for his resurrection, even at the risk of provoking the Fourth Ninja War.

Danzo, on the other hand, used the Will of the Root, an accessory of the Will of Fire, to recruit his subordinates.

Although there are some loyal subordinates, more root ninjas have a very subtle attitude towards Danzo.

Hyugazo prefers to leave the right of choice to others. Even if the choice he makes is wrong, he will stubbornly believe that it is right, thus ensuring a considerable degree of loyalty.

Watching Fu slowly stretch out his hand with hesitation, Danzo showed an imperceptible smile.

With a powerful weapon like the Jinchuuriki in his hand, he would be more confident when facing Hiruzen, Uchiha and the Akatsuki organization.

At this time, Hinata Zou not far away frowned slightly, and he felt familiar fluctuations.

Then, behind Fu, a vortex slowly twisted out, and along with the ripples in space, a hand reached out to Fu's collar.

Danzo's eyes flashed, and he shot the shuriken with wind attributes at that hand.

As if aware of the sharpness of the shuriken, the hand became invisible and avoided the cut. After the shuriken also chopped off several large trees, it stopped and got stuck in a log.

"Mask Man Ban, how dare you appear in front of me!"

After recognizing Obito's attire, Danzo frowned, and the surrounding root ninjas also changed their positions to surround Obito.

Before Obito could say anything, Shanfeng used the shadow imitation technique on him.

Obito dodged and easily escaped the shadow imitation technique. He looked at Danzo playfully and said jokingly: "Isn't this the root leader who shrank when he attacked the village? How could you give it up?"

Danzo folded his hands on his chest, ignored Obito's first half, and said calmly: "I'm here to capture you Akatsuki villains. Speaking of which, Hidan revealed a lot of information last time!"

"That brainless guy Hidan?"

Obito smiled, then his expression turned serious, and he said, "However, after the battle with Pain, how much strength do you have left now? Can you still use the Wood Dragon Technique?"

After saying that, without waiting for Danzo to react, the soil under Obito's feet began to roll, and crisscrossing vines emerged from the soil and wrapped around Danzo's feet.

Danzo looked shocked and slowly used his wooden escape to fight, but Obito had already rushed in front of him.

Looking at the kaleidoscope in Obito's eyes, Danzo understood that the Sharingan genjutsu would not be effective against Obito, and he was already mentally prepared to use Izanagi.

Just before Izanagi could take effect, Obito suddenly stopped and turned his body into a blur.

This virtual form successfully evaded Kakashi's purple lightning and escaped Kai's nunchuck sweep.

With a slight snort, Obito appeared in mid-air, looked at Kakashi and Kai, and said disdainfully: "I didn't expect that I was discovered by you. You must have been lurking near Takigakure for a long time."

Obviously, Obito was not too surprised by the appearance of Kakashi and Gai.

He had always been sure that there was an ambush of Konoha surrounding Danzo, so he asked Pain and others to take the lead, but he refused to show up.

That is to say, he only dared to show up after seeing Oto and Shisui fighting Pain and Danzo being seriously injured.

It was not because he was afraid of Danzo's strength, but because he had rolled over too many cars, which heightened his vigilance.

Kai, who was protecting Danzo behind him, said carelessly: "Danzo-sama, please retreat quickly! Leave this place to us."

Kai didn't know the twists and turns in the village. He only knew that Danzo was the village's senior leader and companion.

Kakashi stared closely at Obito in mid-air, rubbed his hands, and bursts of dazzling lightning appeared in his palms again, letting out a shrill scream.

Looking at Kakashi and Gai in front of him, and then glancing at Obito in the air, Danzo was convinced that he was there and led his subordinates and jinchūriki to retreat first.

Not to mention Kakashi and Gai asking him to retreat, he would also choose to retreat on his own initiative.

His condition is really not good, and staying here won't make much difference. Besides, he is more valuable to the village if he is alive.

Obito was about to launch a Kamui pursuit, but was stopped by Kakashi and Gai, and his face suddenly darkened.

Before activating the divine power, he needed to temporarily release the virtual state. In front of two ninjas with super strong physical skills, it was difficult for him to find a decent opportunity.

At this time, Yamato, who had arrived late, formed seals with his hands and shouted in a low voice: "Wood Release: The Tree Realm is coming!"

In an instant, the place was flooded by trees rising from the ground. It was difficult to find traces of Danzo and the jinchūriki through the gaps in the trees.

Looking at the three familiar ninjas in front of him, Obito smiled and said, "Are there only three of you? If Uchiha Bo and Uchiha Shisui are not here, why are you my opponents?"

As he spoke, Obito's second-stage half-length Susanoo was projected on his body. The sky-blue Susanoo clenched his fist and smashed it towards the three of them.

The Yamato seal summoned a wooden wall, but Susanoo destroyed it directly.

Kakashi relied on his speed to narrowly avoid Susanoo's heavy blows.

Only Gai was hit by Susanoo, and his body flew upside down for dozens of meters. After sliding through countless treetops, he stood up again. He seemed to be fine and dived back.

Looking at each other, Kai said to Kakashi: "Kakashi, this guy's Susanoo seems to be bigger and harder than Shisui's."

Kakashi nodded. He just hit Susanoo with a thunder attack, leaving only a crack the size of a fingernail.

For the huge Susanoo, such tiny cracks are nothing to mention.

While talking, Yamato used Wood Release to wrap around the sky-blue Susanoo, but his Wood Release was blocked by Obito's Wood Release, and he was unable to complete the control.

Hyugazo, who stayed nearby, hesitated for a while, used Shukaku's chakra to create a sand clone, and rushed to the location of Kakashi and others, while the original body continued to follow Danzo.

Obito's Kamui Sharingan is almost the most powerful kaleidoscope. After gaining both eyes, as long as he doesn't make mistakes, almost no one can kill him, and he is no exception.

But if he was left alone, Obito's good friend Kakashi wouldn't kill him.

Kai and Yamato's lives may be in danger. One of them is not familiar with them, and the other has a grudge.

In comparison, it is better to continue to follow Danzo. Firstly, Danzo cannot get the Nanao, and secondly, Danzo is not yet dead.
