Deep within Konoha Village.

In a dim underground space.

Numerous ninjas were busy sorting through various pieces of information, each of them wearing masks to conceal their faces.

If the permanent residents of Konoha Village were to find out, they would surely be astonished!

When did their village have such an intelligence organization!

And this place!

It was the hidden base of the Root organization.

Inside the quiet room.

The candle flame burned motionlessly, with droplets of wax flowing down the surface, gathering into small puddles.

In the room, a man with a scar on his chin and a single eye sat in the main seat, his eyes closed.

Kneeling in front of him were three individuals, the ones who had attempted to bring Sousuke back to Root during the day.

"Lord Danzo, the mission has failed. We were incompetent and couldn't bring back Sousuke, and the 'Ape' leader was injured as a result."

Another person added.

"Based on our observations, that brat seems to be able to release some strange ninjutsu. We have never seen it before, and we cannot rule out the possibility of a bloodline limit!"

Upon hearing the words "bloodline limit," Danzo, seated in the main position, suddenly opened his single eye, his expression still calm.

"I see. You may leave. I want to personally meet that child."

After hearing Danzo's words, the few individuals slowly backed out, but their hearts were greatly shocked!!

Could it be that Lord Danzo really wants to take that brat as his disciple!! He wants to meet him personally!!

In the room, only Danzo remained seated in his position.

With a calm face, a peculiar light flickered in his lone eye.

Sousuke? An interesting child... How many surprises will you bring me...

...

Late at night.

Sousuke's home.

At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the floor, refining his chakra.

The battle with the four members of Root during the day made him realize the power of Kidō!

Although he had used Kyōka Suigetsu on them from the beginning, and believed that with the help of the genjutsu, he could easily deal with them, he still wanted to test his own strength.

Apart from Zanjutsu and Hakuda, the power of Kidō he learned from Kyōka Suigetsu did not disappoint.

Even with the use of relatively low-level Kidō, he could already hold his own against four opponents!

If he could chant and use high-level or even above 90-level Hado!

The destructive power it would cause would be earth-shattering! Such a scene made Sousuke yearn for it involuntarily!

However, the voice that suddenly came from the room shattered Sousuke's fantasies.

"With your current strength, if you were to chant a 30-level Kidō, your chakra would be nearly halved. As for a Hado above level 90, that's really..."

The voice that came was soft and alluring, impossible to be anyone else but Kyōka Suigetsu.

At this moment, she leaned against the corner of the room, in the shadows, illuminated by the pale moonlight, revealing her face.

Still as beautiful and enchanting as ever, but there was a strange expression on her face, a smile that seemed like a smirk, making it hard to see what she was really thinking.

Sousuke looked at her with a cold expression and said in a cold voice.

"I seem to have told you not to pry into my inner thoughts, Kyōka Suigetsu!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kyōka Suigetsu seemed to transform, and the next moment, she appeared beside him as if she had disappeared!

More precisely!

She was half-lying in his arms!

Kyōka Suigetsu leaned against Sousuke,

The scattered petals of her floral kimono were spread on the ground like flowers. She ignored the faintly revealed slender legs and the crescent moon on her chest, only raising her head to gaze at Sousuke with her slightly arrogant eyes.

Her voice was like the tinkling sound of ice water, giving a clear but somewhat mournful feeling.

Looking at her eyes, filled with affection and doubt, Sousuke didn't know what to say. The words he wanted to scold her with suddenly changed at the moment they were about to be spoken.

"I just wanted to test the power of Kidō, and the results were quite satisfying. The power of Kidō is very impressive," he said.

After hearing his words, Kyōka Suigetsu unusually remained silent.

She seemed to be reminiscing about something, perhaps feeling nostalgic or melancholic. In any case, her enthusiasm seemed to have diminished greatly after Sousuke's words. She simply gently took one of his hands and hugged it to her chest.

It was as if she could only feel at ease when Sousuke was by her side.

"I've... had enough of loneliness... Finally... finally, someone is calling out to me..." she said.

Aizen... Can I lend you my power? Your actions of wanting to subvert the Soul Society are incredibly audacious... I'm starting to hesitate about letting you use my power.

Do you not need Bankai? Do you believe in the power of the Hougyoku?

Or will you still refuse to use my power?

Aizen... I'm tired of being alone... It's nice like this.

As Kyōka Suigetsu gently held his hand in her embrace, Sousuke couldn't help but be taken aback.

Then his body slowly relaxed, and he lightly adjusted his glasses. He didn't say a word, just sitting in place and allowing Kyōka Suigetsu to hold him.

What's with this person? Wasn't she quite talkative just now?

Just then!

Suddenly, Kyōka Suigetsu, who was lying on top of Sousuke, seemed to have noticed something. She abruptly sat up, her black eyes turning cold as she looked in a certain direction, and her delicate lips uttered cold words.

"Sousuke! Someone is coming, be careful!"

Startled by her sudden movement, Sousuke also quickly stood up, his expression becoming serious as he looked towards that direction.

He had no choice but to believe Kyōka Suigetsu's words.

He didn't know whether the person coming was a friend or a foe!

Sousuke had already mentally prepared himself, his hand gently resting on his sword, ready for battle at any moment.

However, to his surprise!

The approaching person didn't seem to have any intention of hiding themselves and slowly pushed the door open like that.

In the moonlight's reflection, Sousuke could see the appearance of the intruder clearly.

It was a middle-aged man of around thirty, with short hair and wearing a white kimono jacket. There was a cross-shaped scar on his chin, and one of his eyes was wrapped in bandages!

To cause such a disturbance to Kyōka Suigetsu, he definitely wasn't an ordinary person!

Sousuke stared fixedly at the intruder and coldly asked, "Who are you?! Why are you here?"

Upon hearing his words, the middle-aged man lifted his head slightly and looked at Sousuke.

Under the gaze of that one eye, Sousuke seemed to see darkness, to see despair!

Like falling into an endless abyss, darkness gathered into

deep evil, pulling at him. When he looked around, there was nothing!

"That's an illusion! Wake up!" Kyōka Suigetsu's voice brought Sousuke back to reality. His back was already covered in sweat!

He looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with astonishment!

And it seemed that the middle-aged man was also somewhat surprised by how quickly Sousuke broke free from the illusion!

But immediately, his expression became calm again.

He maintained a very composed demeanor on his face, his voice deep and low as he said, "I am Shimura Danzo, your future teacher!"
