Chapter 14: He Stopped Pretending And Showed His Hand
On the outskirts of Konoha, the "Root" headquarters.
The base of the Root is just as its name describes, the main body is completely hidden underground.
"Da, Da, Da............"
Danzo walked out of the gloomy underground slowly with the sound of the cane hitting the ground.
After being exposed to the sun, he covered his exposed single eye somewhat unnaturally.
Perhaps he had stayed in the dark for too long, and Danzo had become unaccustomed to the sun on the ground.
A few minutes ago.
The Root spies in Konoha reported the news of Sarutobi Hiruzen's death to Danzo through secret techniques.
After receiving this news, Danzo set out from his old nest.
Feeling the dazzling sunlight in front of him, a trace of heat flashed in Danzo's exposed single eye.
The death of Sarutobi Hiruzen was a huge blow to most Konoha Shinobi.
But there are also exceptions among them.
This part of Konoha Shinobi came from the "Root".
For the ninjas of the "root", it doesn't matter who is the Hokage.
Because they only recognize Danzo.
Under the cruel brainwashing, the ninjas of the root have already become killing machines in Danzo's hands.
At this stage.
Although the Konoha root nominally belongs to Konoha.
But as Danzo's ambitions expand.
Today's root has actually become Danzo's private power.
As one of the driving forces behind the "collapse of Konoha".
Danzo had made an agreement with Orochimaru early on.
The root will not interfere with Orochimaru's assassination of Sarutobi Hiruzen.
After Sarutobi Hiruzen's death, Danzo will come out and reap the benefits.
And the reward for watching from the sidelines.
After the assassination of Sarutobi Hiruzen is over, Orochimaru will deliberately lose to Danzo.
Satisfy Danzo's desire to "whitewash".
Let Danzo take this opportunity to become a "hero" who repel enemies and protect the village, and accumulate capital for his succession to the position of Hokage.
When he thought of this, even Danzo's blood, which had long been rotten and cold, began to boil.
But at this moment, a slightly frivolous voice suddenly came into Danzo's ears.
"Elder Shimura."
"Where are you going?"
Hearing the voice, Danzo's face suddenly changed.
He turned his eyes to the top of the tree not far away, and saw a middle-aged man with a white hedgehog head.
Under the sunlight, the "oil" forehead protector on the man's head was shining with a dazzling luster.
Almost instantly, Danzo seemed to understand something.
His already hateful face also became half distorted as if "the horse was gone".
....................
In the center of Konoha.
Facing Orochimaru's sudden attack, Senju Ryujian had no intention of dodging.
Competing in close combat.
With the blessing of "strange power", Ryujian has ten thousand ways to beat Orochimaru so well that even the mother snake of Ryūchi Cave can't recognize him.
But since Orochimaru knew that he had no advantage in close combat, with his cunning, how could he take the initiative to rush up and "get beaten"?
"Hiss!"
Sure enough, the body of "Orochimaru" who attacked Ryujian exploded directly in the air, dispersing into countless tiny flower-scaled Lion Majesties.
These Lion Majesties were like maggots on the tarsal bones, biting at Senju Ryujian like crazy.
Secret Technique. Snake Split Body Explosion Technique!
If Senju Ryujian was a patient with trypophobia, he would probably be directly broken by this attack.
Whether you can beat Orochimaru in a battle is one thing.
Being disgusted is another.
Almost instantly, Senju Ryujian made the best response plan.
Snakes are most afraid of fire!
Fire Style. Fire Bomb Technique!!!
After forming a seal with one hand, Ryujian directly sprayed out a huge fire bomb with a diameter of more than ten meters.
Under the scorching flames, the densely packed little snakes were instantly turned into charcoal.
"When did my Fire Style become so powerful?"
Senju Ryujian was surprised to see that the Fire Style he released was so powerful.
Influenced by Bloodline.
The Senju clan's best escape techniques are naturally Water Style and Earth Style.
Fire Style is not Ryujian's escape technique.
But soon, Ryujian thought that this was the effect of the "top fire attribute Nature Transformation talent" given by the system.
After the attack, Ryujian looked around vigilantly.
Because Orochimaru had lost his trace.
He used the "snake clone" to exchange positions with the main body.
Then he used the snake clone to attract Ryujian's attention, and abandoned this clone to test the feint.
Finally, his main body directly turned from light to dark, waiting for an opportunity to move.
A set of tactics was carried out smoothly, fully demonstrating Orochimaru's sophisticated combat experience.
Ryujian looked around, but couldn't find any trace of Orochimaru.
There was no trace of him, and Orochimaru couldn't fly.
"Under my feet!!!"
Ryujian suddenly realized.
"Swoosh!!"
He jumped high, predicted the attack position of Orochimaru under his feet, and used Wood Style downwards.
Wood Style. Diamond Calling Wood!!!
"Boom boom boom!!!!"
In an instant, several giant trees with tapered sharp heads extended from both sides at the same time.
Almost at the same time.
"Boom!!!"
"Hiss!!!"
A huge and ferocious earth-yellow snake head suddenly drilled out from the ground, opening its bloody mouth and trying to swallow Ryujian directly.
Forbidden Technique. Snake Mouth Binding Technique!
But unfortunately.
Due to Ryujian's advance prediction, not only did the giant snake's attack fall into the air.
But the giant snake's head also hit the sharp wooden thorns directly.
"Puff!!!"
The smelly and sticky blood immediately splashed out, and the head of the yellow snake was directly pierced into a broken mochi.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!!!"
As a result, before Senju Ryujian fell from the air.
There was another fierce sound of breaking wind from all directions.
And because he was in the air, Senju Ryujian had almost no way to avoid it.
He looked carefully.
Sure enough, it was a densely packed Madara Lion Majesty that rushed like an arrow!
Ninja method. Ten thousand snake formation!
Seeing Orochimaru's "disgusting" moves, it was like an old sow wearing a bra, one set after another.
At that moment, a trace of anger flashed in Senju Ryujian's eyes.
"Do you really think I'm made of mud?"
"It's not over yet, right?!!"
Originally.
He was still planning to get along with Orochimaru as an ordinary ninja.
The result was indeed Orochimaru's disgusting moves one after another.
Now.
Senju Ryujian finally didn't plan to pretend.
He showed his cards.
He is—— Wood Style + Immortal Body!!
