Chapter 103 Danzo is on the move again

Konoha, roots.

In the deepest part, the office, the silence was suddenly broken.

A distorted pale face suddenly appeared on the desk where Danzo was processing official documents, pulling out a strange and friendly smile.

"Hello!"

The owner of the smile had a voice that was too lively for his own taste; and the topic he would use to chat with Danzo next would be a bit embarrassing for most humans.

"After sitting for so long, don't you need to relieve yourself? I heard that old people can't stand the urge to defecate...!"

The next moment, Yamakaze, who was responsible for guarding Danzo today, suddenly appeared from the corner, holding a powerful kunai in his hand. The kunai pierced White Zetsu's eyebrows.

"I'm kidding!"

White Zetsu screamed in panic.

Because of Rengoku Kyojuro, the current number of White Zetsus has been almost halved. If he continues to die, Obito will be unable to collect information, and the situation will be difficult.

White Zetsus regarded Uchiha Obito as one of their own, and they didn't want the brat to turn into the sad-faced look he had when they first met, so they often reminded each other to protect themselves, but they eventually let him go.

Fortunately, the Yamakaze's kunai did not penetrate.

Danzo showed agility and strength that was not befitting his age, and actually caught his subordinate's wrist with his left hand in time.

White Zetsu, who was almost stabbed to death, breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, the bandaged old man just whispered "Go ahead".

Yamakaze didn't even ask, and immediately returned to the corner and stopped moving. He didn't seem to be worried at all that this sudden monster would hurt the leader of the root ninjas.

"Ahem, it's a good thing that you are still strong and have good eyesight and quick hands, otherwise I would have suffered a lot today." Then White Zetsu leaned half out of the table in fear.

Danzo leaned back in his chair and looked at the strange-looking monster calmly.

This is a reconnaissance type White Zetsu.

The right side of his body was covered with barbs that looked like some kind of albino desert fern.

When he first saw this thing, Danzo thought that there was only one White Zetsu.

It wasn't until Rengoku Kyojuro used Mind's Eye of the Kagura to discover the white Zetsu that was spying on the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen that Danzo knew the truth: this elusive but not very powerful monster was actually the product of the wood release experiment. Likely to have a unique clan of people who are born spies.

The other party claimed to be trading with him on behalf of "Madara", but did not explicitly say that he was "Uchiha Madara".

At that time, Danzo had always thought that the other party was trying to confuse the situation, and he hoped that he would take the initiative to make random guesses before saying this.

Danzo knew that it was a taboo for ninjas to fill in the gaps with their own imagination without definite information, so he never thought much about it.

Until the White Zetsu was captured, the wooden patterns in its body were discovered, and the secret technique Izanagi was sent by the other party,

Danzo began to believe that these guys might indeed be related to "Uchiha Madara", and his attention and fear have gone up to a new level.

Of course, he still didn't rule out Orochimaru's suspicion, but he was no longer as sure as before.

"Is there any result in the Earth Kingdom?"

Danzo knew that this guy likes to talk nonsense, so he got straight to the point. ....

He didn't dwell on the evil plan that the other party might have been here for an hour or two, but had been waiting for him to go to the toilet and then peeped.

"Ah, let's get down to business! Do you want to save time because you are older? It's really disappointing."

White Zetsu seemed a little disappointed, but he had an important mission, so he couldn't force anything more, so he quickly replied: "The plan was successful."

Danzo's squinted eyes suddenly widened, bursting with a little fire of desire: "Uchiha Shisui is dead?"

"Of course, we did it ourselves, how could there be any mistakes?"

White Zetsu lied.

In fact, Uchiha Shisui can only be said to be missing at the moment, and they have not found each other's body.

But White Zetsu chose to say this, firstly because Obito needed to stabilize the "alliance" with Danzo, and telling the truth would make him appear incompetent.

Secondly, it was to consider Uchiha Shisui's situation. Even if that guy doesn't die, he won't be able to pose any threat to their plan in a few years.

Danzo listened carefully and immediately found something different from the plan.

"I thought you were planning to use Onoki's help to get rid of him."

"We thought so too. But Iwagakure Ninjas are too... Well, to be honest, Iwagakure Ninja's performance this time was pretty good, but they just chose the wrong opponent. He managed to escape from them so we had to kill him ourselves."

White Zetsu picked up Danzo's tea cup as if he were at home and took a tentative sip, but couldn't feel any taste, which made him a little sad.

"Nearly ten thousand Iwagakure Ninja elites surrounded that place. They hunted Uchiha Shisui for a day and a night. He turned into the green giant and almost drained his chakra. But in the end, the Iwagakure Ninjas trapped him. Originally, we thought that things would not turn around and he would definitely die."

"But neither we nor Iwagakure Ninjas expected that Uchiha Shisui actually did the opposite and directly broke into the place where the opponent had the most people, which made Iwagakure Ninjas throw a rat weapon and dare not Using powerful ninjutsu. He forced those guys to fight him hand-to-hand... Tsk tsk, you should see it for yourself. His swordsmanship is fast and ruthless. He floats around like a ghost. All the ninjas who fight him look like They fell down in flakes like wheat, and a blood-red gap appeared in the well-established encirclement..."

Danzo fell into silence.

He knew that Uchiha Shisui was known as the best master in the entire clan, and he must be very strong, but he should be more focused on illusions.

But Danzo never expected that this person could kill like the Third Raikage despite insufficient chakra.

Just listening to White Zetsu's description, he could feel the despair Iwagakure Ninjas felt at that time.

Even If they managed to survive against Susanoo, but they lost against swordsmanship...

It seemed that the action against Uchiha Shisui was indeed the right choice. Once he raises his butcher knife against Konoha, the consequences will be disastrous.

Danzo asked again: "How many people did Iwagakure lose?"

"I knew you were going to ask this! Fortunately, I counted."

White Zetsu looked like he had expected it, and three fingers came out of his palm, shook it playfully.

"The word "heavy losses" is no longer enough to describe the Iwagakure misfortune! In this battle, the total number of dead and disabled ninjas was more than 3,000; except for the Tsuchikage, almost everyone was injured. In addition, the four-tailed Jinchuuriki was tricked by Uchiha Shisui and was brainwashed to defect in battle. Onoki had no choice but to ruthlessly kill him first. Uchiha Shisui took advantage of this opportunity to escape. Damn it, we had to catch up and wipe the Iwagakure Ninjas's butt. Of course, wiping the butt here is not a literal meaning, otherwise I would definitely be happy..."

The heavy losses of the Iwagakure Ninjas were an unexpected surprise, but Danzo didn't care about this.

He leaned forward and asked in a lowered voice, "Where are his eyes? Is the technique that controls the Four-Tails Jinchuriki the ability of his Mangekyo Sharingan?"

It was as if time and space had returned to the night of the Nine-Tails!

Having these eyes means having at least one tailed beast! How can people not care?

White Zetsu said with ridicule: "Yes, that is an unparalleled illusion, called Kotoamatsukami. It is so terrifying that was able to change the minds of jinchuriki and tailed beasts at the same time in an instant. It seems that Uchiha Shisui really trusts you. In all these years, he has never thought of using this technique on you. Otherwise, Konoha would have been named Uchiha long ago."

"It is a bad waste for soft-hearted people to master such power. If you say so, it is If you want me to feel guilty, there is no need. Even if he is not our enemy now, he will be in the future. I am just thinking about the future."

Danzo snorted coldly and asked again: "Since you killed him, where are his eyes? Our original agreement was-"

"Even if we really get his eyes, considering such a convenient ability, it is impossible to leave it to someone like you."

White Zetsu's words made Danzo stop breathing.

But he immediately grasped what White Zetsu meant, and repeated suspiciously: "Even if you really got it, got it?"

"Unfortunately, Uchiha Shisui ran out of Sharingan power when he fought with us, and those eyes have been completely scrapped."

White Zetsu said with a grin, observing Danzo's gloomy expression with schadenfreude.

This is a lie. But that's not all.

The actual situation is that fighting with Susanoo and using Kotoamatsukami to control the four-tailed jinchuriki did drain Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan power. His left eye was blind, but it is not clear whether it is permanent.

According to Black Zetsu's judgment, that level of consumption is too heavy a burden for a person of Uchiha Shisui's age. Even if he is not completely blind, he will never be able to see clearly in the future.

As for Kotoamatsukami, there is no chance of recovery within a few years, and there is no essential difference between it and being scrapped.

As for his right eye, Uchiha Shisui was truly and completely blinded when he activated "Izanagi" when he was sneak attacked by Obito.

At that time, Shisui Uchiha took advantage of the "suspended death" created by Izanagi to jump off the cliff and was swallowed by the rapids.

The speed of the rapids was much higher than the speed of White Zetsu Escape. Although he tried his best to catch up, he could not find the whereabouts of the opponent.

However, in Obito's view, Uchiha Shisui was too seriously injured, chakra exhausted, and almost certain to die (Black Zetsu remembered Madara's experience and was very suspicious of this, but did not say it for the sake of harmony).

Besides, even if he did survive, he would still be blind for the next few years.

So, "Don't worry about him, the genius of the past is dead, he is nothing now."

These are Uchiha Obito's exact words.

anyway.

Danzo expressed doubts about White Zetsu's statement: "Do you think I will believe you?"

Although what White Zetsu said is indeed possible, he still couldn't bear to part with a pair of Mangekyo Sharingan, not to mention this kind of ability. It couldn't be more in line with his dark character. ....

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. The current situation is that we have killed Uchiha Shisui, but Uchiha Fugaku is alive and well."

White Zetsu raised his head sarcastically, "When I was Passing by Uchiha Fugaku's house, I happened to hear him telling his wife that he had gained another kilogram. So, when are you going to do it, and what are your plans? If you don't work, it will be a bit unjust, right? It's just killing someone, you delay it. After procrastinating, procrastinating and procrastinating, no wonder I am constipated."

"Sometimes it is more valuable to do nothing."

Danzo ignored his sarcasm and replied calmly: "Wait until the news of Uchiha Shisui's death, and when the anger of the Iwagakure Ninjas is conveyed, things will naturally change."

When the Hyuga clan killed a messenger, Sarutobi Hiruzen almost handed over Hyuga Hizashi.

Now that Iwagakure Jinchūriki is died and Many ninjas died and failed to kill Uchiha Shisui, it is a foregone conclusion that he will send people to Konoha to ask the Hokage to "hand him over".

But Uchiha is not Hyuga. They are more united, proud and warlike, and they will definitely be united in dealing with the outside world.

However, would the other ninjas in the village be willing to stand with the Uchihas for this reason?

Unlike White Zetsu who seemed to only want to kill Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Shisui, Danzo had greater ambitions. He wanted the entire Uchiha to be completely destroyed.

In that case, how many spare lives can he have?

"Why are you stupider than me?"

White Zetsu was very self-aware of his own IQ. He put his hand on his forehead and said, "Iwagakure so many elite jounins were killed, and even lost a tailed beast. This is when they are at their weakest. Is that old man Tsuchikage crazy enough to declare war on you?"

"Are you right? He knows nothing about war or politics, and he knows nothing about Onoki."

Danzo also glanced at White Zetsu: "If a fly finds a gap in the eggshell, it will attract a swarm. The Iwagakure is certainly weak, but what about the Sunagakure or Kumogakure? He will not come alone to cause trouble. Knowing Sarutobi Hiruzen, facing this kind of war with no chance of winning, he will still be as weak as last time. When the time comes, Uchiha will not be able to make friends with anyone. By then, it will not only be Uchiha Fugaku, The entire Uchiha will become a 'public enemy,' which they cannot bear..."

"Oh!" White Zetsu understood a little bit: "You want to use this matter to force them to rebel!"

"You finally understand." Danzo must explain clearly so that White Zetsu can explain it to the person who can really make the decision, otherwise he doesn't have to waste any time at all.

"But I heard that Sarutobi Hiruzen was brainwashed by that yellow-haired brat and is now very optimistic about Uchiha?"

White Zetsu retorted again: "Are you sure you can really succeed? The feasibility of your plan is completely pinning its hopes on the kages of these villages."

Before he came, Black Zetsu had told Danzo to attack Uchiha Fugaku as soon as possible.

Once it is delayed for a long time, if Uchiha Shisui is really alive and contacts Konoha, Danzo will become timid again.

So waiting for other major countries to react before doing this is too risky.

This is what is said about long nights and many dreams.

"Do you have any good ideas?"

Danzo turned his head and said coldly.

A mere experimental creature who was only interested in poop actually dared to question his plan.

"I really do."

White Zetsu smiled and presented Black Zetsu's idea as his own.

"First find a way to take down Uchiha Fugaku and his family. What's the use of the remaining Uchiha? Without the only pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, Uchiha becomes a tiger without claws. Besides. Wouldn't losing the clan leader anger them more than losing Uchiha Shisui?"

"To put it lightly." Danzo said contemptuously: "If I had the absolute confidence to kill Uchiha Fugaku, would I still want to go through all that trouble? "

Although he is not sure, Danzo is well aware of Uchiha's arrogance and admiration for the strong.

Uchiha Shisui was so strong during the third war, but the Uchiha jounin still insisted on making Fugaku the clan leader, probably because they knew very well that Uchiha Fugaku had a pair of unique eyes!

But as far as Danzo knew, there was currently no ninja in the village who could match a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan.

Danzo also thought about playing tricks like he did against Konoha White Fang, but Uchiha Itachi, that loser, was so unable to withstand a blow! He quit the ANBU selection first, but now he doesn't even a ninja anymore!

It is impossible to use him to bring down Fugaku.

"I understand your concerns."

The tone of White Zetsu's imitator, Black Zetsu, sounded like he was strategizing.

"So we are willing to help you."

"How will you help?" Danzo instinctively did not want the other party to dominate Konoha, but he was still somewhat interested.

"Uchiha Itachi." White Zetsu gave a name.

"..." Danzo closed his eyes in disappointment.

If he could succeed, could he wait until now?

However, White Zetsu's next words became more and more outrageous: "We can become Uchiha Shisui to trap Uchiha Itachi, and then become Uchiha Itachi to assassinate Uchiha Fugaku, not to mention the woman and the two brats left in the end."

"Transformation technique? This is your idea."

Danzo couldn't help but complain, then he suddenly turned his head and found that the Yamakaze couldn't help shaking in the shadow.

Oh shit! Even the strictly trained root ninja couldn't help but laugh, thinking how untrustworthy White Zetsu's ideas were.

The transformation technique is okay against genin and ordinary people, but in the eyes of experienced ninjas it can only be full of flaws, otherwise why would the assassination mission charge so much money?

"Why are you laughing?"

White Zetsu was a little unhappy this time. He felt that he had been insulted.

"It's not an ordinary transformation technique, it's my transformation technique."

After saying that, White Zetsu's body changed, "melting" in just a few seconds, and then reorganized into the appearance of Yamakaze.

Danzo frowned and noticed something unusual.

As the spy leader, he couldn't find any faults.

[Is it the reason for the wood style? ]

White Zetsu smiled proudly.

[Interesting...but can this transformation technique be hidden from the Sharingan? ]

Danzo had some concerns in his heart, and suddenly remembered that his personal guard today was more or less a sensory ninja. ....

"Become me." Danzo said to White Zetsu.

"Easy!" White Zetsu immediately complied as if offering a treasure.

He doesn't miss an opportunity to show off.

Seeing the exact same version of himself appearing, Danzo looked back at Yamakaze again: "How?"

Yamakaze closed his eyes and was silent for a minute before shaking his head and saying: "There is no difference. The feeling of chakra is exactly the same. In all aspects it's the same."

After hearing this, Danzo was not only not happy, but felt a chill down his spine.

Another meaning of Yamakaze is that as long as White Zetsu becomes Danzo and walks out of this room, he can give orders to all root ninjas!

But he glanced at "his" silly smiling face again, and felt a lot more relieved inexplicably.

"Uchiha Itachi is in charge of cooking these days and buys groceries at the same restaurant every day."

Danzo knocked on the table with his knuckles, "I'll get rid of the owner of the vegetable shop first. You can appear in front of Uchiha Itachi as him and see if he can find your flaw. If it works, we can make plans later. But before that, Yamakaze will tell you the behavior and language characteristics of Uchiha Shisui. You must study it carefully. Don't arouse the other party's suspicion in these details."

If feasible, after capturing Uchiha Itachi, let White Zetsu return to his sweet home as Uchiha Itachi -

Whether it's assassination or poisoning, it will be very convenient!

Danzo squinted his eyes, as if he had seen Uchiha Fugaku's expression when he was killed by the "eldest son" from behind.

"Hey! Seeing how cunning and deceitful you are, you still have to rely on me in the end!"

White Shimura Danzo happily waved his fist to the sky, causing Yamakaze to bite his lips to stop laughing.

Danzo had no reason to pay attention to them, but continued to think about White Zetsu's previous opinions about Sarutobi Hiruzen.

His old friend may have been too close to the brat with a loud voice in the past three years, so he has indeed changed a bit.

Once his behavior angers him, years of cooperation may come to naught.

[It seems that we have to find a way to get Hiruzen to leave Konoha, even if it's just for a few days! ]

Danzo made up his mind.

At the same time, thousands of miles away, there was the jungle on the border between the Kingdom of Earth and the Kingdom of Birds.

A giant python thicker than an elephant's waist suddenly fell down, and its abdomen was sliced open from the inside by a rusty ninja sword.

A few minutes later, a naked man, even his skin corroded by acid, crawled out of the snake's belly with difficulty. It was Uchiha Shisui.

Perhaps, being eaten by a snake was the reason why he was not discovered by White Zetsu.

"I almost got eaten..."

Uchiha Shisui greedily breathed the air outside, trying to judge the location by smell, because his eyes were covered with a thin layer of gray.

"The smell of grass and mushrooms, the touch of this temperature...it's daytime, so unlucky."

He, the first genius and the first master of Uchiha, is indeed a blind man now, and the eyes he was most proud of in the past, Now it is the most useless thing.

But no one could tell this from his current expression.

That Uchiha Shisui is not as strong as he used to be.

But he still remembers the feeling that when he fought with the Iwagakure Ninjas that night and used the Moon Breathing, his Mangekyo Sharingan power was gradually recovering!

Blindness in his left eye was actually the second time he had experienced it! Otherwise, it would be impossible to successfully use Kotoamatsukami after using Susanoo.

Giyu taught him Moon Breathing, which has some unique effect on Sharingan!

After Shisui completely crawled out of the snake's belly, he sat weakly on the other's body, grabbed a piece of snake meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

"I'm sorry, you were the one who saved my life! But I choose to thank Giyu."

He ate the snake meat and waited.

He waited for night to fall and for the cool moonlight to shine on him.

"Speaking of which, if Giyu performs Moon Breathing every day, the Sharingan will evolve soon, right?"

What Uchiha Shisui didn't know was that it might be a coincidence.

Giyu, which he had in mind, was currently thinking of ways to squeeze out the value of the other snake.
