NOVEL NEXT Chapter 7
Boooom, the heat and fire caused by the detonation talisman exploded next to the girl, causing her sleeves and skirt to fly. In the light of the fire, the little face with flying hair showed no expression.
""Tachi-ryu Second Style: Takidan!"
As she shouted, the blade flashed like a shadow, and its force could almost cut off the flow of water!
The hands of a root member who was making seals suddenly stopped, and then a masked head with several fingers still in the seal state flew into the sky.
The attack and defense at the root headquarters had been going on for some time.
If Konoha is compared to a towering tree, then the roots led by Danzo are the roots deeply rooted under the soil. Over the years, as the leaves have become more and more dense, the roots have also gone deeper and deeper into the ground.
They are now at the entrance of the root. The surrounding buildings have been razed to the ground by ninjutsu and detonating tags. A dark hole is exposed in the rubble on the ground.
The one just now was the 11th root member who was solved by the Uchiha clan members who were surrounded on the periphery. After this person fell to the ground, no sound came out of the dark and deep hole.
"As expected, Danzo is here to pretend to be a corpse. He probably wants us to fight the Third Hokage head-on and both sides will suffer losses in the end, so that he can take the opportunity to expand his power. Fortunately, the clan leader was well prepared."
The leader, Uchiha Muneo, was a man with gray hair tied into a ponytail. He shouted;
""Immediately execute the backup plan."
Following his order, several Uchiha clan members took out several black scrolls wrapped with red silk threads. In addition to the Uchiha clan's family crest, there was also a bright red word"forbidden", indicating that the origin of the scrolls was not simple.
As the Uchiha clan members moved, the scrolls were opened one by one, and then they threw them towards the black hole like throwing grenades that were about to explode in their hands.
"This is it!"
The girl's Sharingan narrowed slightly. She already knew what it was.
It was the foundation of the Uchiha clan as a super family. It was unknown which ancestor of the clan sealed the black flame of Amaterasu with a fire seal.
With a sound like the howling of a ghost. The blazing black flame exuded an ominous aura and began to burn and spread in the cave. Yang Nao even felt that the surrounding firelight was dimmed for a moment because of the black flame.
Suddenly, at the entrance that was about to be closed by the black flame of Amaterasu, the figure of a root member appeared. The man's whole body was wrapped in layers of black flames, leaving only a mask. But he still flew out in an unnatural way.
Uchiha Muneo, their temporary commander, seemed to have noticed something and shouted;
""Let's do it."
The Uchiha clansmen around them showed their best, using wind demon shuriken or throwing kunai with explosive tags tied to them under the high-speed dynamic vision brought by the Sharingan with different numbers of magatama, or simply using fire escape to attack together.
Boom!
A ball of fire exploded at the entrance of the tunnel.
"Wind Style: Vacuum Wave!"
The flames and smoke were blown away by the strong wind.
These attacks obviously did not hurt the person behind the Root member. The man had short black hair, and his entire body and half of his face were wrapped in bandages. He was wearing a gray robe outside. It was Danzo Shimura himself.
"I never thought that you, the Uchiha clan, actually have such a secret technique hidden in the clan. I underestimated you."
Danzo threw the almost burned body of the root member who was used as a shield in his hand far away. He used his only remaining left eye to scan the dozens of Uchiha clan members who surrounded him one by one, and said coldly.
Behind his body, dozens of dark shadows of the Anbu Root fled out before the black flames of Amaterasu completely sealed the entrance. Seeing this, Uchiha Muneo nodded to the person behind him. The person understood and took off the special firework on his back. He spit out a ball of flame to ignite it.
Under the gaze of everyone, the firework jumped into the night sky illuminated by the flame and suddenly exploded. It was a red traditional Chinese character"贰", which indicated that the battle had entered the second stage.
"Do you have any backup plan?"
Danzo did not make any attempt to stop this. He still glanced at the Uchiha people, slammed his cane on the ground, and hummed softly;
"I have always wanted to ask you, the Uchiha clan, a question."
Uchiha Muneo continued.
"Death is imminent, what else do you want to ask?"
Shimura Danzo said coldly with a look as sharp as a knife.
"What I have always wondered is how the Uchiha clan has the courage to challenge the entire Konoha with the power of the clan?"
Uchiha Muneo at the side has not answered yet. The girl next to him, who looked only eleven or twelve years old and was dressed in a kimono, could not help but laugh first.
She seemed to bend over with laughter, and she kept it for a long time before she straightened up under the gaze of everyone, and pointed her slender jade fingers in all directions of the village.
"I also want to ask you something, Master Danzo, which Konoha are you talking about?"
The people around were confused by what she said. How could there be multiple Konoha Ninja Villages?
In their puzzled eyes, the girl stepped forward and talked freely. Her voice spread under the effect of ninjutsu.
"As far as I know, there are two Konoha in the world. There is one Konoha Ninja Village, which was jointly founded by two leaders of the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan who were ambitious, vigorous and progressive, and had genius ideas far beyond the sages and supreme power to match them."
"When she was born, the world's thousand-year-old structure also underwent a dramatic change because of her will."
"Every family that has been passed down for thousands of years has tried to join this group, just to seek safety and shelter. This ninja village occupies the best and most fertile land in the world. In this land that she named the Land of Fire, it is growing stronger and stronger, like the rising sun.
"She established all the new rules in the world, and put an end to the dark history of vendettas among the major families over the past thousand years."
"This village has the most powerful tailed beast in the world as its backing, and when she speaks with her voice, no one dares to sit and listen. Under the power of the Uchiha and Senju, even the Kage of other ninja villages - those who follow the rules we set, can only cower and crawl on the ground, begging us to share the power of the tailed beast with them."
"Because they know in their hearts that they and their ninja village exist only because our shadow wants them to exist. In this way, when our people are accustomed to the most affluent life in the world, they can still get reaffirmation from our neighbors."
"This ninja village is the ninja village that my fathers told me about, the ninja village that your fathers told you about, and it is also the Konoha Ninja Village that our Uchiha clan is heading to on this thorny road that is destined to be uneasy tonight!"
"But!"She glanced around and keenly discovered the countless eyes that were hiding in the shadows behind the flames and peeking at this place.
She knew in her heart that half of the ninja village who were paying attention to this place had heard her words. Facing Danzo whose face was turning blue and red and the stunned people, the girl continued to talk back.
"But I know, unfortunately, there is another Konoha in the world. This ninja village tries its best to dress itself up as a mouse. No, to be more precise, it hopes to be a mouse as much as possible, so that it can survive in the dark corners."
"This ninja village used all the violent means that should have been used against the outside world to hurt each other."
"It would rather bow down to the shameless enemy ninjas who sneaked into the village and stole the blood boundary, and even sacrifice the life of the younger brother of its own clan leader and his body disguised as the clan leader to quell a war - a defensive war that should have been just, just because some people in the upper echelons were afraid that their rights would be harmed!"
"Even so, some of us are still saying, look, how powerful we are! Let other villages unite to deal with us, yes, as powerful as Konoha White Fang, the four major ninja villages that are our enemies, more than 100,000 ninjas have never been able to do it, but some of us did it in just one night!"
"In this village, dignity has never existed for even a single day. They pretend to worship the monuments that our ancestors built with their blood, but they dare not even take a look at them, because they know that this will make them feel ashamed!"
"But it was this ninja village that was willing to murder its own hero who had returned triumphantly from the war, and was so greedy as to snatch the power of the Blood Boundary from him - that was Uchiha Shisui!"
"Uchiha Shisui, the pride of Konoha, the heir to the Will of Fire of the Uchiha clan, was murdered in the broad daylight four years ago by everything he had sworn to protect with his lifelong beliefs, everything he was willing to defend with his youth, sacrifice, and courage, and everything he loved until the last moment before his betrayal!"
"The murderer is you, and the black hand behind you! Shimura Danzo! It was you four years ago! You tried to dig out his bright eyes with your bloody hands! Do you still remember the eyes of that boy? Do you dare to deny it? In front of the spirits of the past Hokages?"
"What you desire is not only his blood boundary, but also his power! I know that is the power you crave greedily like a hungry mouse hiding in the shadows! But I also know that it is definitely not just that. You are afraid of him, you are afraid of the light on him, you are afraid of the pure white flame that appears in his eyes when he protects the so-called will of fire, so you can't wait to dig out his eyes. Because you are so afraid of the ugly reflection that appears in his eyes.!"
"This is a ninja village that is unwilling to shed even a drop of blood for dignity, or even for a foreign war to protect the lives of its clansmen.
But it would rather cruelly sacrifice its own flesh and blood, the Uchiha clan, who created its parents and grew up under its shade, and who are also its largest family and strongest force, on the altar of flesh and blood, even though there are too many innocent babies and ignorant children in that family, as well as too many expectant mothers and old people who have dedicated their lives to protecting this ninja village!
"
"Even so, this ninja village will still say"I do". Yes, it is willing to sacrifice all these pure and beautiful things just to maintain the existence of this ugly ninja village - even if it can only last for one more day, it will not hesitate!"
"But we are here to declare: 'There will be no new day! After tonight, when the sun rises from the east, this ugly ninja village will disappear like a demon hiding in the darkness! This is the ninja village that we, the Uchiha clan, will spurn with the most violent actions tonight."
"And when all this is over, the history books of the future will record it like this: Konoha Ninja Village, this is a ninja village of despicable people"
"This is a ninja village where the personal dignity and family reputation of all people are worthless, but they claim that the ideological stamp of the will of fire imposed on them is supreme."
"This is a ninja village where wise men like the three ninjas are abandoned as soon as possible, while despicable people like Danzo are promoted by humiliating themselves."
"This is a ninja village where old people hold high positions but cherish their lives, and young people forget their own lives and sacrifice themselves in battle."
"This is a ninja village where everyone repays kindness with hatred, speaks sweet words but has a treacherous heart, is jealous of geniuses, and bullies the weak."
"This is a ninja village where everyone is calculating in their hearts, but never speaks out loud. This is a ninja village where when it says,"Please sacrifice yourself for me," when a person or a family is sacrificed, everyone else will secretly say with relief,"It's a good thing I wasn't the one abandoned.""
"This is a ninja village that you will find out one day has abandoned all of you, and in the end, it is destined to be abandoned by everyone!"
