8 Chapter 8

Tatsuma Aburame had never seen such a scene.

Kagura Akihara just stood there, the swarm of insects surrounding the boy fell to the ground in a flurry, leaving a thick layer of insects on the ground!

How could an enemy just stand there and let insects bite them!

How could the insects he raised become too full?

Tatsuma Aburame had defeated many enemies using his family's secret techniques, any enemy entangled by the swarm he controlled would have their inner chakra consumed by the insects, losing their ability to fight.

This time...

There was an exception.

As Kagura Akihara said, insects are just insects.

The chakra that insects can accommodate is limited, the imagination of Tatsuma Aburame, the keeper of the insects, is also limited. He had never thought that someone's chakra could be so abundant that the parasitic insects inside him would lose their ability to act...

"Secret Technique: Insect Cocoon!"

Tatsuma Aburame had other methods.

The Aburame clan often encountered the problem of insufficient insects during battles, so they also had a unique secret technique, using chakra to spin a cocoon and hatch more insects!

"Parasitic Insect: Tornado!"

A swarm of insects transformed into a tornado and attacked Kagura Akihara!

"I told you..."

"Insects are just insects!"

Kagura Akihara crushed the floor with his foot, and his inner chakra surged!

The fluctuation of the chakra on the boy's body made Tatsuma Aburame feel a great crisis, let alone the insects he had hatched!

The insect fog that was hit by the sudden surge of chakra froze suddenly, as if blown by a tornado, countless insects flew out and were all thrown against the wall by this strong impact!

"This chakra..."

A drop of cold sweat flowed down Tatsuma Aburame's forehead.

For all these years, it was the first time that Tatsuma Aburame had seen someone simply let their inner chakra surge and could form such a power!

Just the strength of his chakra, Tatsuma Aburame could say it's the most formidable he's ever seen in his life!

This kid...

Is quite a terrifying guy!

While Tatsuma Aburame was still in awe, he saw Kagura Akihara's body suddenly transform into a shadow and rush towards him, frightening him into hastily evading!

"It doesn't seem like he has any combat skills..."

Tatsuma Aburame observed the boy's somewhat clumsy attack method, slightly relieved, "Although his chakra is very strong, he has never received formal ninja training."

It has to be said that this kid is talented, but if he wants to become a strong force in the Root organization, there's still a long way to go!

"Little guy..."

"Ninja combat isn't as simple as just looking at chakra..."

Tatsuma Aburame's mood gradually relaxed, he stealthily appeared at Kagura Akihara's side, his elbow heavily hitting his shoulder and neck!

Kagura Akihara felt a sharp pain in his shoulder!

But by the time Kagura Akihara turned his head, Tatsuma Aburame had already side-stepped in front of the boy, kicking him in the chest!

Kagura Akihara was thrown back!

Tatsuma Aburame rushed forward, tightly grabbing the boy's neck, pressing his body against the wall, "Now... are you willing to behave?"

"..."

An eerie smile appeared on the boy's face.

This strange smile made Tatsuma Aburame tense up!

Did this little devil have other combat methods? Now that this little devil was under his control, could he still form seals and cast ninjutsu?

Crack!

A tear suddenly appeared in Kagura Akihara's clothes!

A sharp wooden spike protruded from his body, piercing Tatsuma Aburame's shoulder!

This is...

Seal-less ninjutsu!

A wooden spike from a Wood Release bloodline limit user could grow from inside the user's body without using ninjutsu?

He was too careless!

Tatsuma Aburame immediately realized his crisis!

A single wooden spike, naturally, Tatsuma Aburame wouldn't fear, but he had seen the boy catch fish with a wooden spike firsthand, he knew very well how dangerous this wooden spike was!

This wooden spike...

It will grow inside my body!

Even if this wooden spike is only positioned at the shoulder, once it begins to branch and grow inside, it could undoubtedly penetrate my entire body!

To escape this crisis, either stop the boy from forming a seal, or pull out this wooden spike as soon as possible!

But...

It's too late!

Boom!

Taking advantage of the moment Tatsuma Aburame was stunned, Kagura Akihara's elbow hit the wall hard, using the force to send Tatsuma Aburame flying!

"Wood Release: Piercing..."

Kagura Akihara raised his finger!

"I surrender!"

Tatsuma Aburame quickly raised his palm!

This little devil is not some kind and timid character!

Tatsuma Aburame has witnessed it firsthand, this is a lunatic who enjoys taking lives, let alone dying at the hands of this little devil would be too embarrassing!

"I really overstepped, senior..."

A kind smile immediately appeared on Kagura Akihara's face, "From now on, let's respect each other, I'll call you senior, and you call me Lord Kagura."

"..."

Tatsuma Aburame didn't know how to retort.

A newcomer, on his first day, wants to ride on his head?

As the loser, Tatsuma Aburame really had no grounds to argue, and this little devil being willing to call him senior was somewhat respectful...

Seeing Tatsuma Aburame fall silent, Kagura Akihara asked with a smile, "Senior, I've shown you so much respect, are you unwilling to even address me as Lord Kagura?"

"This..."

Tatsuma Aburame's face was somewhat embarrassed, "This goes against the will of Root..."

"The will of Root..."

Kagura Akihara slowly shook his head, the young boy's smile seemed somewhat naive, "The will of Root doesn't matter to me, only Lord Danzo's will is the most important..."

"..."

This little devil is really sensible!

Tatsuma Aburame had to admit, this little devil surprisingly caught the key point!

"But..."

Tatsuma Aburame still felt something was wrong and explained, "Lord Danzo's will is the will of Root, the will of Root..."

"The will of Root, is just an extension of Lord Danzo's will!"

Kagura Akihara interrupted Tatsuma Aburame, retorting, "Lord Danzo's will is the will of Root, but the will of Root may not necessarily be Lord Danzo's will... According to your words, we obey Lord Danzo's commands, so should Lord Danzo also obey our Root's commands?"

"You're right..."

Tatsuma Aburame felt his mind was somewhat inadequate, wanting to prove his point, "But we, the Root, are one with Lord Danzo..."

Kagura Akihara looked at Tatsuma Aburame discontentedly, countering, "We are not one with Lord Danzo, we are his subordinates, we can sacrifice for Lord Danzo... are you suggesting that Lord Danzo should sacrifice for us?"

"Of course not."

Tatsuma Aburame quickly shook his head.

Although Tatsuma Aburame still felt something was off, he couldn't refute Kagura Akihara's point, this little guy made a lot of sense...

Tatsuma Aburame once again felt something... was this little guy more loyal to Lord Danzo than he himself, a guard who had been following Lord Danzo for many years?

"Alright, don't think too much."

Kagura Akihara waved his hand, looked at the messy room and said, "First take me to see Lord Danzo, then arrange a room for me in the evening, put a bed in it in advance."

"Sure."

Tatsuma Aburame agreed.

This veteran member of the Root Organization believed that this small matter didn't violate any principles.
