Uchiha Fucheng's eyes narrowed as he focused his Mangekyo Sharingan gaze on the narrow passage.
Along this route leading to Danzo Shimura's office area, the seemingly ordinary floor tiles exhibited unusual Chakra fluctuations.
"Danzo Shimura is quite devious; this is a Fūinjutsu trap I've never seen before."
Uchiha Fucheng retreated alertly, scattering a handful of specially prepared fine dust.
The tiny dust particles began to vibrate and float upon the energy fluctuations of the Fūinjutsu trap.
"No matter how powerful a Fūinjutsu is, once it's discovered, it loses all meaning."
Uchiha Fucheng recalled Danzo Shimura's [Final Strike].
The ever-ambitious Danzo Shimura had thoroughly sealed a large, scorched hillside.
The volume of earth and stone was so great that, in the afterlife, Danzo Shimura could probably start laying concrete and building houses.
In the upcoming restricted Root area, there was one RootJonin and two Chunin on guard.
This Jonin possessed a massive reserve of Chakra; under the observation of the Mangekyo Sharingan, it was nearly five times that of an average KonohaJonin.
This was the strongest RootNinjaUchiha Fucheng had seen since entering the underground facility.
However, these three measly guards posed absolutely no threat to Uchiha Fucheng's current strength.
Through the skilled use of the Mangekyo, Uchiha Fucheng's current combat power was worlds apart from that of an ordinary Jonin.
Staring a RootNinja unconscious with a single glance might be a bit of an exaggeration.
But using the Mangekyo Sharingan's Genjutsu to launch a sneak attack, rendering the RootNinjas unable to resist in silence, was something he could achieve.
Considering he still needed to divert the Village's attention, Uchiha Fucheng did not kill anyone here.
He simply hypnotized the three RootNinjas with the Mangekyo Genjutsu, and to prevent them from suddenly waking up or regaining consciousness, he also administered a large dose of hallucinogenic anesthetic.
This despicable attack method of "Genjutsu + Drugs" was Uchiha Fucheng's own unique creation.
Coming from a background as a mine owner, Uchiha Fucheng had no psychological burden; this secure and reliable attack method was his favorite.
Many Uchiha Ninjas had arrogant mindsets; it wasn't that they couldn't think of using drugs to complement Genjutsu, or using hallucinogens to solidify the effects of Genjutsu.
Rather, it was as if their subconscious had been branded; they always believed that they shouldn't do such things.
Mine owner Uchiha Fucheng could only silently change them.
As long as a method was effective, he dared to try it, even if it was something as crude as "using a mop dipped in excrement," a tactic he had heard of.
He didn't have that kind of Uchiha stubbornness.
After using Genjutsu with the Mangekyo, he would still follow up with two doses of anesthetic without hesitation.
Having eliminated the final line of defense, Uchiha Fucheng checked Danzo Shimura's secret room with satisfaction.
Accompanied by two Misaka Sisters, who were the most skilled at dismantling mechanisms, Uchiha Fucheng walked excitedly into the core area of the Root, where Danzo Shimura spent most of his time.
Secret scrolls, Ninjutsu, treasures, cash, spy lists—Uchiha Fucheng had no intention of letting any of Danzo Shimura's collections go.
In Danzo Shimura's secret room, which resembled a three-bedroom apartment, the largest room was his daily office area.
It mainly stored Danzo Shimura's various secret scrolls, Root intelligence, and recent classified information from Konoha.
Of the two slightly smaller rooms, one was a resting area equipped with a bed. The walls here contained hidden spaces where the Misaka Sisters found important financial account records for the Root, large sums of bearer notes, some anonymous real estate, and various types of land deeds in the Land of Fire.
Not only did it contain content related to the Root, but also some secret accounts of the Shimura Clan and ledgers for the Shimura Clan's hidden strongholds.
"This Danzo Shimura is truly wealthy, and the Shimura Clan is absolutely overflowing with riches." As Uchiha Fucheng looted the wealth, he felt a bit angry; such a fine Konoha Village had been ruined by trash like them.
As for the real estate, it wasn't convenient to transfer or sell it for the time being, so it could be stored away for now.
However, the large sums of bearer cash, financial bonds, and the bearer accounts of the Shimura Clan and the Root could all be collected and used directly.
As Uchiha Fucheng continued to promote the Uchiha Clan's [Contribution Point System], the clan's financial situation had actually begun to show a deficit.
Uchiha Fucheng needed to use fiscal deficits and financial subsidies to guide the clan's expansion and positive development, all of which required money.
With this extra income, some of Uchiha Fucheng's more aggressive clan policies could finally be pushed forward in depth.
This time, the large sums of bearer notes alone gave Uchiha Fucheng the thrill of "robbing a bank."
As a clan head, he, Uchiha Fucheng, had seen money before. But compared to the black-hearted Danzo Shimura, the liquid funds the Uchiha Clan saved up daily didn't even amount to half of Danzo Shimura's cash.
No wonder the Shimura Clan and the Sarutobi Clan developed so rapidly after the Second Ninja World War, as if they had taken hormones.
The high-level officials of Konoha had usurped wealth from the Village's treasury, allowing the families behind them to receive a significant share of the profits.
Besides the bedroom, the remaining room, which resembled a small warehouse, housed even more treasures and valuables.
Bloodline secret techniques, various Ninjutsu, lists of Ninja spies from various major nations, the Root's secret strongholds in various countries, and surveillance secrets on the major Ninja clans of Konoha.
From just one rock-wall compartment, Uchiha Fucheng dug out three large boxes of important collections.
Uchiha Fucheng used the Mangekyo to forcibly break the Fūinjutsu on the floor, and Misaka Sister 0018 dove underground, successively obtaining 14 bottles of bloodline organ collections stored in organ culture fluid.
Among them, three bloodline organs surprised Uchiha Fucheng the most.
On the label, it was clearly written: "Uchiha Shinji's right eye," a Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
On the label, it was written: "Hyuga Nichirin's eyes," two Byakugan from the Hyuga Main Branch.
On the label, it was written: "Senju Mayumi's heart," a complete heart collection.
Besides these, the other bloodline organs were also very valuable. For Three-Tomoe Sharingan alone, Uchiha Fucheng recovered four pairs at once.
It seems that Danzo Shimura, in addition to ambushing Uchiha Kagami, had also repeatedly ambushed Uchiha Ninjas.
According to the records of missing persons within the clan, these Sharingan were, in all likelihood, the result of RootNinjas stabbing them in the back during the Ninja World War.
Every pair of Three-Tomoe Sharingan collected by Danzo Shimura signified the fall of an UchihaJonin.
Uchiha Fucheng silently made a note in his heart; these debts owed to the Uchiha Clan, with Danzo Shimura dead, would have to be collected from the Shimura Clan.
As expected of the head of Konoha's special department, Danzo Shimura was able to embezzle a significant amount of the Village's budget every year, which allowed him to accumulate a very substantial fortune.
Of course, the collections and wealth here were certainly not all of Danzo Shimura's inventory.
He likely still retained important wealth in some secret treasury of the Shimura Clan.
But there was no help for it; Danzo Shimura had resisted too fiercely.
In the end, he used the Reverse Four-Symbols Sealing to perish together, leaving Uchiha Fucheng without even the chance to search his brain for memories.
After organizing all the collected spoils, the twenty Misaka Sisters packed up all the various items and took them away.
As for Uchiha Fucheng, he quietly left behind a few special secret scrolls in the compartment where Danzo Shimura had hidden his items.
The first was Danzo Shimura's human experimentation records; he had conducted human experiments on relatives of Tobirama, with special records concerning Senju bloodline cells.
The second was two different versions of Danzo Shimura's Root ledgers, recording the Root's expense budget for the last six months. Inside, one could clearly compare the records of Danzo Shimura embezzling the Root's budget to purchase real estate for the Shimura Clan.
The final scroll recorded Danzo Shimura's records of eliminating dissidents and assassinating personnel within the Village.
Among the victims were elite AnbuNinjas from the families of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Utatane Koharu.
