Konoha Torment Room.

The torture room shrouded in pale moonlight was built along rivers and cliffs. Instead of the raging wind, it seemed that the screams of countless prisoners converged, making the already cold place even more eerie.

Shikaku led a group of ANBU, passed the inspection by the guard here, confirmed his identity, and was allowed to enter.

In the huge building where the torture room is located, cells made of stone and iron bars are built on both sides. Each cell is electrified, but the place where the electricity is electrified is just a light bulb that emits bright yellow light. Because

The range of the light is very small, so most places inside the building are still shrouded in darkness and extremely gloomy.

In each cell, there is a prisoner, as if to prevent people from escaping from prison through secret conversations, this method of detention is adopted.

Some prisoners have begun to snore and sleep, and some prisoners are holding the iron bars and looking out in a daze. Their pupils are hollow and dim. Regardless of men, women, old or young, they all have long, unkempt hair that has not been cut much. They are wearing

Wearing a thin gray-blue prison uniform, the exposed arms and calves have very rough skin, which is obviously the result of doing rough work frequently.

If you hadn't been able to vaguely detect their breathing, these prisoners holding on to the iron bars and looking eagerly outside would have been like frozen corpses, which was extremely weird.

Shikaku, who was used to the scene, only frowned slightly, then continued to move without saying a word.

The ANBU behind him were accustomed to following Shikaku's footsteps, turning a blind eye to the indifference, pleading, and pain in these people's eyes.

None of the prisoners held here deserve sympathy.

These people are all criminal ninjas who have committed serious crimes or leaked important secrets of the village.

They were not executed directly, which was enough mercy. These people must be strictly managed and restrained with violence until they grow old and die here.

This is the last mercy Konoha can give these people.

After crossing the outermost prison, Shikaku and others moved deeper into the torture chamber.

On the way, I also met Konoha ninjas who were patrolling. They stayed up all night and took turns patrolling here. They were wary of any tricks used by the prisoners here.

Jailbreak out of here.

Although the chakra of these cuffed people was blocked, the patrolling ninjas still stood firm and eliminated the last traces of luck in these prisoners.

Soon, Shikaku led the ANBU to the end of the outer and middle levels of the prison.

The road is getting narrower and narrower, and on the ceiling, every ten meters, there is a light bulb with a very small illumination range.

The door of the cell is not an iron bar, but a thick and sealed iron door, and there is only a small window on the iron door through which one can reach out.

The ground is damp and cold, and the cold wind blowing into his pants makes even Shikaku a little uncomfortable with the environment here.

When they reached the deepest cell, Shikaku and ANBU stopped.

In front of the iron door of the cell, ninjas wearing similar clothing to ANBU stood on both sides of the iron door, like loyal guards, protecting the cell.

"I have something I want to discuss with Elder Danzo."

Shikaku stared at the root ninjas stationed on both sides of the iron gate.

Although it is a bit hard to say, this is the fact. People like Danzo are not easy to see even if they are detained in the torture chamber.

The caretakers of the torture room could also only turn a blind eye and acquiesce in all this happening.

The two root ninjas are only superficial guards, and there are more root ninjas hiding around, locking every move of Shikaku and the ANBU ninjas.

Once they make the slightest move out of the ordinary, they may be attacked wildly by root ninjas.

The general situation is that the office location has been moved from the base to the punishment room.

Lu Jiu smiled bitterly.

If it were any other prisoner, the process would not be so complicated and tricky.

"Let him in."

An old voice came from the inside of the iron door.

A root ninja turned his head, as if to confirm something, then turned his head again and gently led Shikaku.

He turned the door handle of the iron door, pushed it open slightly, and made an invitation to Shikaku to enter.

Shikaku immediately moved towards the iron gate. The ANBU ninja behind him wanted to follow him in, but was intercepted by the root ninja and was under the cold surveillance of the root ninja.

"You just stay outside, I can go in alone."

Shikaku shook his head at the ANBU behind him, indicating that he could go in alone.

The ANBU ninjas had no choice but to retreat. Looking at these arrogant root ninjas, they felt extremely humiliated.

Not only was he previously controlled by the roots, but even if Danzo was imprisoned, the power of the roots was superior to that of the ANBU, and he had become the most uncontrollable force in Konoha.

Because behind the root is the entire fighting sect of Konoha.

The Anbu without Hokage is indeed unable to suppress the roots.

Nowadays, the control of ANBU is temporarily managed by two advisors and the Jonin squad leader.

After crossing the iron gate, Shikaku's figure stood completely in the prison, and the iron gate behind him shook lightly and closed tightly.

The moment the iron door was closed, the candles placed on the candlesticks around the wall in the originally dark cell suddenly lit up, driving away the darkness in the cell.

At this time, Shikaku also discovered that in the cell, in addition to Danzo sitting on the seat directly in front of him, there was also an old man with gray hair sitting there in the corner, with his head hanging down.

Judging from his weak breathing, this old man is still alive and well.

The room not only has chairs, beds, desks, tea tables, pens and papers, and lamps, but also everything you need.

Deep in the room, there seems to be a faint secret door.

There is no doubt that this is a special cell, and it was probably transformed by Danzo himself.

Even the space of the cell is cleaner and more spacious than other cells.

This is not about suffering at all.

Although he was slandering in his heart, Lu Jiu could only turn a blind eye to these things.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how desperate Danzo is, he is not a terrifying being that he can overthrow.

"Elder Danzo."

Shikaku walked to Danzo and stopped.

"Are you here to see me in distress?"

Danzo raised his head and stared into Shikaku's eyes.

Shikaku shook his head and said: "No, I have no such intention. I came here just to ask Elder Danzo for one thing."

"The whereabouts of Tsunade?"

Danzo seemed to have read through Shikaku's thoughts.

Lu remained silent for a long time, acquiescing.

"Iron Country, Southern Forest."

Danzo named this place.

Shikaku, who was still thinking about how to get Danzo to let go, suddenly showed surprise when he heard Danzo tell Tsunade's whereabouts so straightforwardly.

"How is the progress of the investigation outside?"

Danzo continued to ask.

Lu Jiu hesitated for a moment and took something out of his pocket.

It's a videotape.

"This thing is consistent with the content that was played in the open air not long ago, and many copies were deliberately copied and scattered in the village."

Shikaku's unspoken meaning was that even if he wanted to recycle it, it would be impossible.

There are many Jonin who want Danzo to fall. They will definitely use this kind of thing to fight Danzo to the end and will not let go easily.

The crime of attacking the Hokage and manipulating the Hokage is not a small one.

This stain is placed in front of everyone, and it is difficult to refuse to pay.

What's more, there were some shrewd Jonin who noticed the strange behavior of the Third Hokage himself and became suspicious of it.

As for whether the Third Hokage himself is controlled by genjutsu, this kind of thing can be known by using the secret technique of the Yamanaka clan to explore the memory and do a little investigation.

What's more, Danzo's right eye also needs some explanation.

That kind of eye looks very similar to the Sharingan no matter how you look at it.

The matter of the Mangekyou Sharingan is also clearly recorded in Konoha's intelligence.

These things simply cannot withstand investigation.

The only good thing is that Danzo chose to take refuge temporarily. If he had insisted on going his own way and forcibly suppressed the opinions in the village, I am afraid that the civil war in Konoha would have broken out by now.

Thinking of such consequences, Shikaku couldn't help but feel scared.

"Really... It seems that I have completely lost this time..."

Danzo's tone was quite calm, so calm that Shikaku began to shudder inside.

Just when Shikaku was about to say something, a burst of laughter suddenly came from beside him.
