Uchiha's God of Muscle

Danzo glared at Itachi's back and gritted his teeth as he watched him walk out of the roots.

Then.

"What the hell is going on!" He was furious at his subordinate.

"I underestimated the strength of Uchiha Dan, causing the second team to be completely wiped out. I also fought with him, but I couldn't kill him, so I could only retreat first. This mission failure is my fault, please punish me, lord Danzo."

Aburame Tatsuma took the initiative to take the blame, without any complaint.

Danzo took a deep breath and calmed his anger.

He knew how strong Aburame Tatsuma was and how loyal he was, so he would never deceive him.

Even Aburame Tatsuma was helpless. What kind of monster was that Uchiha Dan?

Thinking of this.

Danzo sat back in his chair and raised his hand to Aburame Tatsuma who was kneeling on the ground. "Get up, I won't punish you this time."

Aburame Tatsuma stood up and asked, "Do you still want to continue to send people to assassinate Uchiha Dan?"

"Forget it, don't add more people in for the time being. Just treat it as nothing happened."

Danzo waved his hand.

He was not worried at all.

After all.

Danzo had even tried to assassinate the Hokage, but in the end, he was fine.

In Konoha, no one could do anything to him.

He was the dark side of the world.

His hand covered the sky.

"I will re-collect and sort out the information about the Uchiha Dan, and then report it to you," Said Aburame Tatsuma.

"Well, You must find out his real weakness, understand?"

Danzo nodded and told his subordinates.

Any Ninja had a weakness, and Uchiha Dan was no exception. It was just that he hadn't found it for the time being.

Let's put this matter aside for the time being.

"This time, we lost the second team. It's time to replenish the manpower at root and absorb some fresh blood. Speaking of which, I haven't visited the great Ninja Clan for a while."

Danzo muttered to himself. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly asked Aburame Tatsuma, "By the way, do you have any good seedlings in Aburame clan?"

"I'll go back and ask."

Aburame Tatsuma lowered his head and replied. A trace of sorrow flashed in his eyes under the sunglasses.

He was loyal to Danzo and Konoha, but he also loved his own people. He knew what it meant for them to join Root.

Itachi walked out of the root base, with an incredulous look in his eyes.

He didn't expect that even Root's carefully planned assassination couldn't do anything to Uncle.

It must be a thrilling and exciting battle.

Although he did not know the details of the battle, he guessed that his uncle must have used the same method to deal with the masked man again to make Aburame Tatsuma return empty-handed, right?

Perhaps, when his uncle came back, he could ask about it.

However.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Itachi did not return.

Early in the morning, he received a notification to meet the 3rd in the Hokage's office together with Kakashi and Tenzou.

Poof

The 3rd took a puff of his cigarette and puffed out a long smoke ring. He then said to Kakashi:

"The Kingdom of the Forest has clearly formed an alliance with our Konoha, and they are flirting with Iwagakure in private. I have sent Might Guy to lead a team to the border to exchange information scrolls with the Wisdom of the Kingdom of the Forest, but after thinking about it, I'm still worried. You take the sixth squad and secretly follow Guy's team, if the they betrays Konoha, you know what to do."

"Yes."

Kakashi accepted the order and led the team to set off immediately.

Along the way, Itachi seemed to have a heavy heart.

Seeing this, Kakashi was a little surprised and asked lazily, " Nervous to go out on a mission as an assassin for the first time?"

Tenzou also patted Itachi's shoulder and encouraged:

"Don't worry about your poor performance. Actually, it's nothing. I even tried to assassinate Hokage-sama. That was when I was ten years old..."

Tenzou was still at Root, and he was ordered by Danzo to assassinate the 3rd. After being defeated by Hokae bodyguard Kakashi, he abandoned the darkness and went to the light.

Itachi: "...."

In fact, he was not nervous because of the mission.

It was almost the end of the month, and in another week or so, the Uchiha clan meeting would be held.

Now, the undercurrent was surging in the clan, and the conflict between the radical clan and the moderate clan became more and more prominent.

Last night, when Shishui saw Itachi, he told him with a serious expression,

This clan meeting may become the explosive point of conflict between the two factions. He's hoping that Itachi will be able to protect the peace of the clan with him.

In addition.

Itachi remembered that his uncle had agreed to his father's invitation to participate in the first clan meeting.

With his uncle's unpredictable personality, he wondered what the Association would do at the clan meeting.

Thinking of this.

Itachi was momentarily confused. He had a premonition that something big would happen at that time.

Therefore, he could not miss this clan meeting.

What he was worried about now was whether or not he could make it back in time if this mission took too long.

...

Within the borders of the Fire Nation.

Broken in a cloak and wearing a bamboo hat, Dan walked on a small road in the forest.

He was surrounded by a vast and primitive forest. There were birds and beasts everywhere. After walking for half a day, he finally arrived at a remote town.

The streets were cold and cheerless. There was no smoke at all. There were only a few sparse residences and convenience stores. A few crows stopped on the electric poles by the roadside and occasionally cried out twice.

Dan was familiar with the road. He walked to the end of the street and entered a tall building. He went straight to the toilet.

Different times, the same toilet.

Behind the secret door of this toilet, there was a hidden underground gold exchange room in the country of fire.

Creak.

Dan pushed open the door and entered. He followed the passage down for dozens of meters and arrived at the trading hall of the gold exchange room.

Different from the empty and lonely on the ground, there was a lot of people here, a large number of bounty Ninjas, Ronin, and warriors were bustling with noise.

The gold exchange was a type of black market with countless black money, intelligence, and stolen goods, as well as...

Corpses.

In the world of ninjas, the dead were sometimes more valuable than the living, because there were often important information hidden in the corpses.

The most proof of this was the Senju Hasirama, who was known as the God of Ninjas.

His cells are comparable to the meat of monk Tang Sanzang, whoever gets it will cheat.

If the original Hokage dies and is cremated, there won't be so many troubles later.

The morgue was the most popular department in the exchange of gold.

When Dan came here, several bounty hunters were lined up with corpses. After being checked by the staff, they collected the corpses and distributed the bounty on the spot.

The price of corpses ranged from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of Ryo.

Of course, the corpses that were worth tens of millions of Ryo were usually Kage, high-level elites, or S-level traitor of the big Ninja Village, and they might not be able to see one in a year.

Dan is a high ranking bounty hunter, codenamed "Araki", no need to line up.

The boss of the gold exchange office personally received him.

"Mister Araki, you are here."

A bald man with a scar on his face quickly walked over, expressing his welcome to Dan's arrival.

Dan glanced at the boss.

This person was just a businessman, a worker, and the real big boss behind the gold exchange station must be someone else.

However, Dan was not interested in these things. He was only here to make money.
