Chapter 9 Danzo's Killing Intent Meets Kurenai Yuhi!
Chapter 9 Danzo's Killing Intent Meets Kurenai Yuhi!
"Shisui and Itachi are among them. Lord Danzo can question them!"
"Ask them?"
Danzo neither confirmed nor denied this.
He continued in a hoarse voice, "So, how is tonight's Uchiha clan secret meeting different from previous ones? For example, who else is there?"
Upon hearing Danzo's question, Mad Bull and Blue Dog exchanged a glance and fell into deep thought.
The Uchiha clan's secret gatherings, which are attended by dozens of people each time, seem to be no different from before.
If I were to say too much about someone else, what would I say?!
They racked their brains, when suddenly a familiar figure appeared in their minds.
"How could I have forgotten him?"
"Reporting back to Lord Danzo, if there is any difference, it's the addition of that Shingetsu!"
"It's him again!" Danzo heard the name Shingetsu again, and the veins on the back of his old hand, which was gripping his cane, bulged.
For some reason, he felt a strong dislike, even disgust, for this Uchiha boy the first time he saw him.
"Keep a close eye on him, don't miss a single detail. When the time is right, you can take his body back to the Root!" Danzo's tone was hoarse and chilling, sending shivers down one's spine.
"Lord Danzo, are you really going to make a move against the Uchiha?"
Upon hearing this, Mad Bull and Blue Dog felt a jolt of excitement, followed by overwhelming joy.
With their strength.
To deal with a mere Uchiha genius boy.
It couldn't be simpler.
Is this a reward for them?
"Thank you, Lord Danzo!"
"Don't underestimate them, go down!" Danzo waved his hand, signaling the two to leave.
Mad Bull and Blue Dog instantly turned into black shadows and fled into the distance.
After the two left.
Danzo looked up, glancing at the sky and surveying his surroundings.
The lights were dim, the space was empty and desolate, and all I could hear was my own barely audible breathing.
When a person is in this environment, they feel as if they are about to merge with the surrounding space, completely lose themselves, and become one with the darkness.
This is also the purpose of Danzo establishing the root.
Rooted in the earth, merging with the darkness.
Abandon yourself and become the strongest weapon.
"The Uchiha clan is a scourge!"
"The Second Hokage's worries have now come true; the Uchiha clan is beginning to turn against Konoha!"
"Hiruzen was too weak against the Uchiha. Only I can shoulder this great responsibility, annihilate the Uchiha clan, and resolve the crisis for Konoha!"
"Furthermore, the research on the First Hokage's cells has made progress. As long as I obtain enough Sharingan, the power of that technique will definitely be able to overwhelm Hiruzen!"
"For Konoha, I must destroy the Uchiha and obtain their power!" Danzo's heart surged with turmoil, his voice cold and menacing. On his arm, wrapped in white bandages, circular marks wriggled, as if some terrifying demon was about to burst out of his body.
This is the leader of the Root organization.
His entire body was a top secret.
……
Konoha Premium BBQ Restaurant.
Shenyue, Qingshui, and Tieshu stood at the door.
"Wow, Captain, this is the most upscale barbecue restaurant in Konoha! The beef they sell is all high-end stuff from the Land of Lightning!"
"Are we really going to choose this place? The sun is rising in the west!"
Qingshui and Tieshu stared wide-eyed at the large chunks of bright red beef hanging inside, and the enticing aroma wafting from it.
"What are you talking about? Do you think I'm that stingy?" Shen Yue gave the two of them a disdainful look and pushed the door open to enter.
"Boss, ten pounds of top-quality beef chuck, please!"
"Ten more bottles of ice-cold beer, please!" Shen Yue waved her hand, her spirit soaring.
"Long live Captain Shenyue!" Upon hearing this, Qingshui and Tieshu no longer hesitated and sat down to enjoy the barbecue.
Midway through, Shenyue thoughtfully cut meat for them and told them from time to time to eat more.
Qingshui and Tieshu were deeply moved.
"Wow, Captain, this roast beef is so delicious! It's tender yet chewy, and the aroma is amazing!"
"As expected of high-grade beef, the quality is exceptional!"
"From now on, our lives belong to the captain. We'll go through fire and water without hesitation!" Qing Shui and Tie Shu strutting around, their mouths stuffed full of beef, barely able to speak.
"Sigh, it was just drunken talk after all, it shouldn't be taken seriously!" Shen Yue shook her head calmly after hearing their words.
Seeing Shen Yue's reaction, Qing Shui and Tie Shu felt a surge of alcohol in their hearts.
"I swear by my name, I, Uchiha Tetsuki, will go through fire and water for Captain Shingetsu. If I hesitate even a little, I'm a dog!" Tetsuki pounded his chest with his big hands.
"Me too!"
"Qingshui, that's not fair of you. What do you mean you're the same? Swear it again!" Shenyue's eyes darted around, a hint of smugness flashing across them.
"I swear by my name, I, Uchiha Aoshui, will go through fire and water for Captain Shingetsu. If I hesitate even a little, I'm a dog!" Aoshui's words were resounding, and his slaps to his chest made a loud thud.
At this moment, Qing Shui and Tie Shu were completely drunk.
"Really? You said it yourself!" Shen Yue's eyes narrowed slightly, her smile sly like a little fox.
In his hand, which was under the table, a miniature recorder appeared out of nowhere, recording all their conversation.
The plan is complete.
Is Captain Shenyue's barbecue really that delicious?
We've almost finished eating.
Shen Yue beckoned the owner over to settle the bill.
"Boss, the bill!"
"Thirty catties of top-quality beef, fifty bottles of beer, totaling thirty thousand taels!"
"Thirty thousand taels, that's almost the price of a B-rank mission!" Shen Yue felt a pang of pain when he heard the price, but thinking about his upcoming plans, he still paid the bill without hesitation.
Then, carrying Qingshui, Tieshu prepared to leave.
However, at that moment...
Suddenly a sweet voice rang in his ear.
"Shenyue!"
"Are you Uchiha Kamizuki?"
"Who's calling me?" Shen Yue turned her head curiously, looking for the person who spoke.
Look here!
On the street not far away.
A tall, slender, and graceful young woman was greeting him.
When Shen Yue saw the girl's pure and lovely face, which could be both happy and sad, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.
"Teacher Hong?"
Shen Yue recognized the other person at a glance as Kurenai Yuhi.
Kurenai smiled and nodded, her bright red eyes curiously observing Shingetsu, seemingly with a hint of joy in them.
"Kamizuki, I never expected to run into you here!" Kurenai Yuhi brushed a strand of hair behind her ear.
Suddenly, it appeared beside Kurenai.
A burly figure blocked the way for Yuhi Kurenai.
The other person was probably in his early twenties, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth. He had dark skin, an ordinary appearance, and a resolute look between his brows, making him very similar to the Third Hokage.
However, the look in his eyes when he looked at Shen Yue was somewhat annoyed, as if Shen Yue had offended him.
"This is none of your business, get out of here!" The other party issued a dismissal order to Shen Yuexia.
"Sarutobi Asuma!" Shingetsu recognized the other party at a glance.
"You know me?" Asuma was surprised that even a kid who looked only ten years old knew him.
"Now that you know who I am, you'd better leave!" Sarutobi Asuma pointed to the other side, signaling for Shingetsu to leave.
"Does your family own Konoha?" Shingetsu stood still, unmoved.
Kurenai was also somewhat angry at this point. Her bright red eyes glazed over Asuma as she said with dissatisfaction, "Asuma, Shingetsu used to be my student. It's one thing for you to pester me every day, but you can't even tolerate a child like this?"
"That's not what I meant. Why would I get angry with a child?" Sarutobi Asuma panicked when he heard Kurenai Yuhi's accusation.
