_______________

Having completed the Random Quest, Kanda Rokuro returned to the underground base.

He planned to pretend to train in the Shadow Clone Jutsu for the entire day.

That way, when he successfully used the Shadow Clone Jutsu in a few days, it wouldn't seem strange to anyone.

Just as he arrived at the entrance of the underground base, the guard suddenly said to Rokuro,

"Rokuro, Lord Danzo wants you to go directly to him as soon as you return. He says he has business with you!"

Uh!

What does Danzo want with me?

Did he get the news that I just taught Hiroyuki Sawano a lesson?

That speed... is a bit too fast, isn't it?

Carrying some doubts, Rokuro walked towards Danzo's office.

Right now, he wasn't worried about Danzo killing him; he was only worried that Danzo wouldn't let him go out anymore.

Arriving at the door of Danzo's office, Rokuro took a deep breath, put on a cheerful smile, walked into the office, and said to Danzo, who was working,

"Lord Danzo, were you looking for me?"

Danzo put down his documents, glanced at Rokuro, and said,

"I heard you went out and caused trouble again just now!"

Uh!

Looks like the news really did travel fast.

Rokuro smiled awkwardly and said,

"Well, about that, I was just playing around with him!"

Danzo scoffed internally.

Now he had truly witnessed how Rokuro sought revenge for every grievance and how petty he was.

Just because someone looked down on him once, he ran over and beat them up.

Truly, he sought revenge for even a fingernail-sized grudge. Being pranked with the chair yesterday seemed light in comparison.

However!

Being ruthless and merciless!

That was suitable for working in Root.

Rokuro's current personality was actually very suitable for becoming a Root ninja.

After his internal monologue, Danzo took out a scroll and placed it on the table.

"This is a gift sent to you by the Hyūga Clan to thank you for saving the eldest daughter of the Main House. Take a look."

Rokuro was instantly delighted!

Stuff sent by the Hyūga Clan had to be good.

He quickly snatched the scroll and said with a grin,

"The Hyūga Clan is a major clan in the village. Will they give me an S-Rank Ninjutsu? I'm really looking forward to it!"

"Keep dreaming!" Danzo said directly.

"This is a sealing scroll, not a Ninjutsu scroll!"

Uh!

Rokuro's expression stiffened as he muttered,

"Seriously, the Hyūga Clan is too stingy!"

Danzo couldn't help but smack Rokuro on the head.

"The Hyūga Clan was very generous this time. They gave you an A-Rank Ninjutsu, a very decent ninja sword, and 20 million Ryō."

Rokuro's expression softened a bit, and he couldn't wait to open the scroll.

Inside the scroll were three seals.

Rokuro took a look.

They were the type that would open just by inputting Chakra.

He hurriedly channeled Chakra into the three seals to release their contents.

Poof! Poof! Poof!

After three puffs of smoke, three items appeared on the table:

A sword.

A scroll.

A pile of money.

Rokuro was most interested in the Ninjutsu, so he opened the scroll to take a look.

Earth Style: Shape-Shifting Jutsu (A-Rank): Mold mud into various animals or humans, then imbue them with Chakra to bring them to life. They can assist in reconnaissance and combat.

Huh!

This Jutsu is pretty good!

Isn't this similar to Sai's Super Beast Scroll?!

In the future, he could use mud to create small animals for scouting.

He could also be like Deidara, molding a giant bird to ride and fly on.

However!

With his current Chakra reserves, he could probably only create something about the same size as himself.

If he wanted to create a giant bird capable of carrying him in flight, he estimated he would need to raise the Ninjutsu to Level 4. Right now, this Jutsu could only help him with scouting.

It wasn't immediately useful for heavy combat, but it was still a great technique.

Rokuro happily put it away and asked Danzo,

"Lord Danzo, this Ninjutsu is quite interesting. Do you want a copy for your collection? I can let you take a look!"

Danzo's expression twitched slightly.

The brat had already stuffed the scroll into his shirt; he obviously didn't want to show it to anyone. Yet he still asked if Danzo wanted it.

He was clearly just paying lip service.

He was Danzo, the Root of Konoha; he certainly didn't lack A-Rank Ninjutsu.

He glanced indifferently at Rokuro.

"The Hyūga Clan gave that to you. I have no interest in it."

Rokuro nodded repeatedly, picked up the sword, and inspected it.

"Lord Danzo really is a good person. You don't even covet such good items. Truly the material of a Hokage!"

Danzo couldn't be bothered with Rokuro's flattery. He waved his hand.

"Take your things and go back to training immediately. I have matters to attend to; don't hinder me here!"

The sword!

It was quite sharp.

The characters "Cloud Illusion" (Yun Huan) were carved on the hilt.

It must be the Cloud Illusion Sword.

Rokuro inspected the sword, gathered the weapon and the money, and bowed to Danzo.

"Then, Lord Danzo, I'll go back to train. If anything comes up, just send someone to find me!"

"Scram!" Danzo said impatiently.

Rokuro chuckled and left, clutching his loot.

Just as he reached the door, Danzo spoke up again.

"By the way, there's one more thing. Nikō and Masashi have arrived at Headquarters. Do you want to go see them? If their training goes well, I plan to have them team up with you in the future!"

Rokuro waved his hand without looking back.

"I don't want them! I like pretty girls! If you're going to assign teammates, Lord Danzo, give me two girls!"

With that!

Rokuro ran off into the distance.
