This Danzo Is Weird!

Chapter 100: 100. Uchiha Obito: No Need to Worry, Everything is Under Control



"What is that old man planning to do?"

After Danzo left, Zetsu, with only half of his face visible, slowly emerged from the shadows nearby.

Appearing alongside him was Uchiha Obito, wearing a spiral-patterned mask.

At this moment, Zetsu's eyes were filled with confusion.

According to his plan, Danzo was supposed to join forces with Hanzo to destroy the Akatsuki organization, thereby fueling Nagato's hatred for the world.

Then, Obito, posing as Madara Uchiha, would step in to convince Nagato to form a new generation of Akatsuki, helping them capture the tailed beasts and prepare for the revival of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.

Unexpectedly, Danzo had betrayed Hanzo and saved Yahiko, who was supposed to die.

This completely ruined Zetsu's plan to use Hanzo to push Nagato into darkness.

As for Zetsu killing Yahiko himself?

Doing so would not only risk alerting Nagato but also fail to shift the blame onto Amegakure and Konoha. For Zetsu, this was not a favorable outcome.

If Danzo's actions had stopped there, it might have been manageable.

But he had gone out of his way to travel to the Land of Rain, not only pulling Yahiko out of his despair but also planning to help them kill Hanzo and rebuild the Land of Rain?

Had Danzo gone mad?

Was this still the "Darkness of the Shinobi" they knew?

Since when had Danzo become so benevolent?

Given his personality, he should have been eager to plunge the Land of Rain into chaos and seize Nagato's Rinnegan for himself.

Danzo's sudden change had completely disrupted Zetsu's plans for Akatsuki.

Now, Nagato was solely focused on becoming the root of Amegakure, helping Yahiko restore the village's greatness. He had no interest in recruiting members or capturing tailed beasts.

"I told you before, we should have taken the opportunity to kill Danzo last time."

Zetsu, whose plans had been ruined, was clearly in a bad mood.

After all, this was related to whether he could successfully rescue his mother. How could he not be angry?

Obito, wearing his mask, coldly glanced at Black Zetsu.

"Watch your tone, Zetsu!" he warned in a commanding voice.

In Obito's eyes, Zetsu was merely a creation of Madara Uchiha, designed to assist him. Zetsu's arrogance made him narrow his eyes.

If Obito weren't still useful, Zetsu would have already unleashed his signature move, the "Black Tiger's Heart Extraction."

In terms of seniority, Zetsu was Obito's ancestor's ancestor's brother!

Calling him "grandfather" would be an understatement.

However, Zetsu quietly closed his mouth.

There was no other way. He was, after all, a dutiful son.

With Madara gone and Nagato pursuing his own goals, Zetsu would truly be without allies if he left Obito.

Seeing Zetsu fall silent, Obito nodded in satisfaction.

"Don't worry, everything is under control," Obito said with a confident expression.

"Since Danzo plans to support the Land of Rain, we'll just let the Land of Rain and Konoha go to war."

"Not only will this weaken Konoha, but it will also teach that old man Danzo a lesson about what it means to lift a stone only to drop it on his own foot."

"As for the tailed beasts, we can always take the Rinnegan back from Nagato later."

Looking at Obito's overconfidence, Zetsu suddenly felt exhausted.

Was teaming up with this guy really a wise decision?

---

"Lord Danzo, the Hokage has sent another letter."

At the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain.

Just as Danzo and Ryoma Aburame entered the Land of Fire, Aburame Ryoma received another message from the Root.

This was already the third letter, each with similar content, urging Danzo to return to Konoha as soon as possible.

However, the tone of each letter grew increasingly urgent, as if one could almost see the furious Hiruzen Sarutobi pacing in his office.

It was like a wife anxiously urging her husband to come home...

That was Danzo's assessment of Hiruzen.

But as usual, Danzo chose to ignore it.

After all, this wasn't the first time, and Hiruzen should be used to it by now.

Receiving the order, Ryoma Aburame wasn't surprised.

Danzo had always been this arrogant.

If one day he became polite to you, it likely meant he was plotting something even more sinister.

With practiced ease, Ryoma Aburame released a swarm of kikaichū from his coat, which quickly devoured the Hokage's letter.

Just as Danzo was about to continue his journey, Ryoma Aburame suddenly asked:

"Lord Danzo, are we just leaving the Land of Rain like this?"

Danzo paused and looked at Aburame Ryoma with a faint smile.

"What? Do you think I should leave some backup plan in the Land of Rain?"

Faced with his leader's question, Aburame Ryoma chose to be straightforward.

"Yes, Lord Danzo. The Rinnegan is, after all, the Sage's eye. If we leave it unchecked, it could become a threat to the Land of Fire in the future."

Hearing Aburame Ryoma's response, Danzo wasn't angered by the questioning of his decision. Instead, he showed a look of approval.

"I understand your concern. As the Land of Rain continues to develop, they may eventually clash with us, even leading to conflict..."

At this point, Danzo suddenly turned to Aburame Ryoma.

"But Ryoma, do you know what it takes to become a true powerhouse?"

Ryoma was caught off guard by Danzo's sudden shift and could only shake his head honestly.

"I don't know, sir."

"It's the heart of a warrior," Danzo said with a faint smile.

"If I don't even have the courage to face a challenge from the younger generation and only think about using schemes to eliminate them, wouldn't I become a pitiful clown like Hanzo?"

"The heart of a warrior..."

Ryoma murmured these words, his eyes filled with surprise.

As Danzo's longtime subordinate, this was the first time he had seen such a commanding and confident aura from his leader.

It was the aura of a true powerhouse, fearless and self-assured.

Danzo chuckled lightly and patted Ryoma's shoulder.

"Don't worry. If the day comes when we must face these kids on the battlefield, I will personally deal with them."

For Danzo, helping Akatsuki was more beneficial than harmful.

After all, he could continuously gain new abilities from Nagato's Rinnegan.

For example, the Preta Path, which could absorb ninjutsu and chakra, or the Asura Path, which greatly enhanced technological and puppet techniques.

These were abilities Danzo couldn't obtain through other means.

As for the potential risks in the future, Danzo would deal with them when the time came.

From Ryoma's and others' perspectives, Danzo could have easily taken out Nagato before he grew stronger and seized the Rinnegan.

Instead of letting them develop and eventually become a threat to Konoha.

But from Danzo's perspective, seizing Nagato's Rinnegan was never a viable option.

Not only was there the risk of Nagato unleashing Six Paths-level power at the moment of death, but there were also Obito and Zetsu lurking in the shadows.

Would they stand by and let Danzo take the Rinnegan that Madara had worked so hard to secure?

Impossible.

Not to mention, there was no telling what other contingencies the "Ghost of the Uchiha" had prepared.

Therefore, Danzo would never take such a risk at this stage.

Since seizing the Rinnegan wasn't an option, the only remaining choice was to foster goodwill.

Rather than letting Nagato fall into darkness and become an enemy, it was better to guide him and reap some rewards along the way.

Even if they eventually clashed due to differing allegiances, Danzo didn't believe he would be at a disadvantage.

While Nagato might have his cheats, Danzo, through relentless effort and a little help from the system, believed he could match, if not surpass, Nagato's strength.

Feeling Danzo's unwavering confidence and determination, Ryoma said nothing more.

As a loyal subordinate, he understood his role was to advise and remind.

Once the leader had made a clear decision, his job was to support and not hinder.

This was why Danzo had always held Ryoma in high regard.

"Then, Lord Danzo, where are we heading next?" Ryoma asked proactively.

Danzo thought for a moment. "Did you find the person I asked you to look for last time?"

Hearing the question, Ryoma immediately recalled the person Danzo was referring to, thanks to his sharp professional instincts.

"The child named 'Kabuto' in Kikyō Castle?"

Danzo's eyes narrowed slightly as he nodded.

Receiving confirmation, Ryoma quickly reported:

"We found him. I've already had someone place the child in the orphanage in Kikyō Castle. However..."

"However what?" Danzo frowned at Torune's hesitation.

"Root member Yakushi Nonō seems interested in that group of war orphans. She might take them back to Konoha's orphanage."

Ryoma didn't dare hide anything and reported truthfully.

"I see."

Hearing this, Danzo wasn't surprised. In fact, he felt relieved.

After all, the name "Kabuto" (meaning "helmet" or "hat") was relatively common in the shinobi world.

But with Yakushi Nonō's involvement, it was likely that the child Ryoma had found was indeed the "Dream Maker" Kabuto from the original story.

However, this time, it would be Danzo who formed a bond with him!

After understanding the situation, Danzo didn't hesitate. He immediately set off with Ryoma toward his loyal Kikyō Castle.

Along the way, he had Ryoma "accidentally" leak news of his arrival to Nara Shikai, who was stationed in Kikyō Castle.
