Chapter 27 Head-on confrontation with Old Danzo
Outside Konoha Village, Sasuke had already met with the Sound Four.
After the Sound Four gave Sasuke some kind of medicine, they sealed him in a large wooden barrel.
Everything seemed to go smoothly, without encountering any obstacles.
The Sound Four originally thought they could easily take Sasuke back to become Orochimaru's vessel.
However, in Konoha Village, as soon as Tsunadelearned of this matter, she immediately summoned Shikamaru, who had just been promoted to Chunin.
Kakashi would have been the best candidate to carry out this mission.
However, after reporting the matter, he had gone out to perform other missions.
So, with no other Ninja available in the village, Shikamaru was the only one who could complete it.
After accepting the mission, Shikamaruimmediately contacted Neji, Choji, and Kiba.
Once they gathered, they prepared to find Narutoand then set off to retrieve Sasuke.
However, just as Shikamaru and the others arrived at Naruto's residence, Naruto was nowhere to be found, which made Shikamaru anxious.
On the other side, Naruto had just finished eating ramen not long ago.
He had originally planned to chat with Teuchi at the ramen shop, asking him if he was a hidden BOSS.
But in the end, he was dragged out by Sakura and taken back.
However, just as Naruto and Sakura were about to return, they encountered people from Root on the way.
Naruto was thus taken away from Sakura by the Root members.
The Root Organization in Hokage was actually very secretive and had always been managed by Danzo.
Soon after Naruto was taken away by the Root members, they arrived at Root's secret headquarters.
As soon as he entered the Root Organization's location, Naruto felt a bit uneasy.
Although he had been there once before, Narutohad no impression of this place.
Clearly, there was always an old schemer here eyeing him covetously.
Last time, if Naruto hadn't revealed that he had awakened the Uzumaki Clan's bloodline, he probably would have found it difficult to leave.
This time, Danzo suddenly had people call him here; who knew what tricks that old guy Danzowanted to play again.
So, as soon as he entered this place, Narutobecame vigilant.
"Naruto! You're finally here!"
"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
In the secret room of the Root Organization, after many twists and turns, Naruto finally met Danzo.
However, when Naruto looked up at Danzo, he saw a hint of excitement on Danzo's face.
This excitement made Naruto feel quite uncomfortable.
"Uh, waiting for me? Why wait for me so late?"
"I don't lull people to sleep. By the way, why aren't you sleeping so late, just feeding mosquitoes here?"
Naruto said, finding a place to sit down by himself.
However, Danzo snorted coldly after hearing Naruto's words.
"Hmph! I called you here, of course, to fulfill my dream!"
"Come, I'll show you something!"
As Danzo spoke, he had already walked towards a dark cabinet.
And just as Danzo was about to open the cabinet to show Naruto what was inside, Naruto spoke again.
"Uh, show me something? Let me guess!"
"It wouldn't be the Sharingan, would it?"
Naruto knew very well that this old guy Danzo had dug out all the Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan.
This matter was a huge secret to anyone.
Now that Naruto had blurted it out, even Danzocouldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
One should know that if this matter were known by others, who knows what would happen.
So at this moment, Danzo also looked at Narutosuspiciously.
He didn't know why, but he always felt as if Narutohad seen through him, and this feeling made him very uncomfortable.
As the leader of Root, it was always others who had no secrets in front of him.
However, now it was the exact opposite, which made Danzo very angry.
"How did you know?" Danzo questioned with cold eyes.
"Oh, I guessed!"
"Haha, I didn't actually hit the mark, did I!"
"Then, you called me here, wouldn't it also be related to the Sharingan?"
Naruto spoke even more boldly, not because Naruto didn't want to live, but because Naruto now had a trump card.
The Eight Gates alone was enough to make him act tough in front of Danzo, not to mention Naruto had other moves.
For example, the Copy Ninjutsu he had just learned, or Haki, or Demon Wind Leg.
Any of these, if brought out, would be enough to deal with the current Danzo.
Besides, even if he couldn't win, he was confident he could escape.
So, at this moment, Naruto was not afraid of Danzoat all.
"Heh! You guessed quite accurately, so I can't let you leave even more!"
As Danzo spoke, he directly opened the dark cabinet.
Looking with the faint light, Naruto quickly discovered that the cabinet contained glass bottles.
Inside the glass bottles was some kind of liquid, and in the middle of the liquid, Sharingan were floating.
Clearly, Naruto had not guessed wrong; at this time, Danzo had not yet transplanted the Sharingan to his arm.
Looking at so many Sharingan, Naruto couldn't help but frown.
"What? Scared?"
"Hahahaha, I just thought, perhaps the Uzumaki Clan bloodline in your body can help me!"
"The Uzumaki Clan has super strong recovery abilities, plus the cells of the Senju Clan!"
"This will be enough to make me even stronger!"
When Danzo said this, he couldn't help but reveal a ferocious expression, looking exceptionally terrifying.
If it had been not long ago, Naruto might still have been wary of him.
However, the current Naruto felt no fear at all.
Looking at Danzo's ferocious face, Naruto's lips curved slightly upwards.
"I knew you old geezer had ill intentions!"
"You're a bit too impatient!"
"But if you want to get the Uzumaki Clan's bloodline from my body, you're probably thinking too much!"
Naruto remained very calm, looking as if he didn't take Danzo's words seriously at all, which completely infuriated Danzo.
"Hmph, is that so? Then I'll show you my strength!"
As Danzo spoke, he was already preparing to attack Naruto.
And at this moment, Naruto also remembered the Copy Ninjutsu he had acquired earlier.
Clearly, this old guy Danzo was perfect for practice.
So, Naruto quickly used Copy Ninjutsu as Danzomade his move.
"Wind Release! Vacuum Wave!"
Just as Naruto was about to copy Danzo's Ninjutsu, Danzo decisively opened his mouth.
Then, an incredibly powerful aura instantly shot out from his mouth, heading straight for Naruto.
Seeing the powerful aura cut towards him like a sharp ice blade, Naruto had to dodge with all his might.
During the dodging process, the Copy Ninjutsufinally activated.
Soon, Danzo's previous Wind Release hand signs were also copied by Naruto.
So, Naruto began to imitate, copying Danzo's Ninjutsu hand signs.
"It's just Wind Release! I can do it too!"
