Naruto's Stormy Seas

Chapter 256 Hand Cards and Hole Cards

"Hello, Lord Qingyang."

A hidden place in the wood leaf forest, this is where the roots are.

When Qingyang just entered the range here, a ninja wearing a root costume jumped out and half-kneeled in front of Qingyang.Although the ninja's words were very polite, his intention to stop Qingyang from going deeper was also obvious.

This ninja is covered in robes and wears the same mask as the Anbu ninja.From his voice, Qingyang could tell that he should not be very old.

"Hehe, relax. I don't have any malicious intentions here, I just want to visit Danzo-sama. Can you report to Danzo-sama that I'm coming?"

After speaking, Qingyang disappeared in a flash.The root ninja who was kneeling there was shocked at the time, and when he was looking around to see where Qingyang had gone, Qingyang appeared again.But this time Qingyang appeared behind him.

"!!!"

The root ninja was so frightened speechless by Qingyang's elusive speed, Qingyang just disappeared in front of him just like that, and then appeared behind him without a sound, this speed is completely possible before he has yet Take his life before you react!

"Go and report."

He said this softly, but there was an order in his soft tone.

"Yes Yes Yes!"

The root ninja turned around nervously, and disappeared in the middle of the dense forest with a few jumps.

Looking at the back of the ninja going away, Qingyang smiled.What he wanted was this effect, to give this ninja a slap in the face, but in fact he gave Danzo a slap in the face in disguise.He believes that this ninja will definitely report to Danzo, and he wants Danzo to understand that he came to visit Danzo in person out of respect, but it does not mean that he is afraid of Danzo, let alone that he is not here this time. begging.

Without waiting for the ninja's return, Qingyang walked towards Gen's headquarters without stopping.The place where the roots are is the densest and darkest place in the wood leaf forest.It can be said that it is the most primitive forest in the Konoha forest, and it is also the only forest that is not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Ninja.

Root's headquarters looked extremely inconspicuous, and it could even be said that it was not decent.It's just a wooden building that looks particularly low, but Qingyang knows that it's just what it looks like on the surface.The real appearance of the roots is all in the darkness and depth of the ground.

"After the roots have been reorganized, Danzo's power can be displayed in front of everyone, and even the right to set up enchantments has been given."

Qingyang murmured.You know, things like enchantments are actually controlled in the ninja world.Although there may be many ninjas who have mastered the ability to set barriers, ninjas are not allowed to set barriers privately.Especially in Ninja Village, only the most important departments that really belong to the village can set up enchantments at the headquarters.

After Qingyang came here, a gap was automatically opened in the barrier.The delegation had been made aware of his arrival and was allowed to enter.

Without any hesitation or timidity, Qingyang walked into the barrier calmly.Since he dared to come here alone, it showed that he was not afraid in his heart.He was confident that after he stepped into Root's headquarters, he would still be able to walk out without incident.

"Ta~ta~ta~"

Hearing the clacking sound of stepping on the stairs, and then looking at the deep and dark corridor in front of him.Qingyang almost felt the desire to complain.

Danzo and Orochimaru are indeed worthy of being the relationship between the superior and the subordinate in the past, and their tastes are so similar.Walking in the corridor at Genbu, Qingyang felt as if he had come to the stronghold of Orochimaru.He didn't understand why Danzo and Orochimaru wanted to make their power look like this. The only possible explanation should be that both of them wanted to maintain their mystery and terror in the hearts of their subordinates in this way. image of.

"This method may effectively reduce management costs, but it is a pity that it is not king after all. After all, not all the people Hokage will lead in the future are spies and killers."

Unscrupulously belittling Danzo, Qingyang finally walked through this corridor.At the end of the corridor, there was a ninja also dressed in a mask and robe waiting for Haruhi.

"Master Qingyang, please follow me. Lord Danzo is waiting for you inside."

Qingyang didn't speak, but nodded slightly to signal him to lead the way ahead.

Following the root ninja across the huge underground building through two pontoon bridges and up and down three stairs, Qingyang finally came to the room where Danzo was.

The guiding ninja stood silently outside the door, indicating that Danzo was inside.

"crunch~"

Opening the door, Qingyang saw Danzo sitting inside.

The interior furnishings of this room are very ordinary, but the difference from ordinary houses is that it is built underground, and there are not many lights in this room.There were only a few candles as the light source. Under the dim candlelight, Danzo's scarred face with one eye covered looked extraordinarily terrifying.

"Danzo-sama, thank you for waiting for me here for such a long time."

Ignoring the weird and terrifying atmosphere here, Qingyang sat directly opposite Danzo and greeted him with the usual expression.

"You're welcome, I heard Sai's report yesterday. You did a good job this time."

Just like the organization he established, when Danzo spoke, his tone was like dark and stale old tree roots, exuding the smell of dead wood and soil.And he didn't shy away from mentioning Sai in front of Qingyang, as if he was saying "everything about you is under my control".

But Qingyang obviously won't be intimidated by Danzo just because of this, he said calmly with a smile.

"That's right, Sai is indeed an excellent person. He has been a great help by my side. And this crisis can be resolved so smoothly thanks to the help of Genbu Ninja."

When Danzo heard this, he didn't know that what Qingyang was referring to was that he was greatly assisted by some root ninjas headed by Chengsuke when he was in Cass City.Thinking of Danzo here, there was a lot of anger in his heart, but reason still kept him from getting angry at this time.

"That's the end of the meaningless conversation, Qingyang Joshin, what kind of purpose do you have here? I can't believe you didn't come to chat with an old man like me."

In fact, what Danzo said was just a euphemism, and he had already guessed about the purpose of Qingyang's trip.

"That's exactly what I mean. I'm here this time to report to you. When I was in the Kingdom of Wang, I caught one of the important people who planned the crisis of the Kingdom of Wang. According to him, this person is a close minister next to the daimyo. His name is Shimura Shikai. Of course, I don’t believe his words at all. Just imagine, how could a close minister of the daimyo, who is also a member of your family, do something that endangers the village? So I concluded that he was a Counterfeit, the most disgusting thing is that this counterfeit even said a lot of words to slander you. Of course, I didn't listen to a word."

When Qingyang said this, Danzo was a little restless at that time.The already gloomy face became even more gloomy.

"What do you know?!"

Qingyang didn't have any fear of Danzo's questioning. After a few breaths of silence, Qingyang actually made a big smile.

"I don't know anything, what do you think?"
