Konoha starts from the root

Just a few minutes after Shiroye left, a team of Konoha ANBU ninjas arrived.

If Bai Ye were here, he would immediately recognize that the leader was Kakashi Hatake.

After checking the surrounding traces, a ninja came to Kakashi and reported: "Captain, the six people who escaped before died here. Judging from the traces of the battle, there were only two people who took action."

Kakashi heard the words and looked at the ninja dog Parker on the side. Parker immediately understood, sniffed carefully, and said: "In addition to the smell of those six people, there is indeed one person, but the other person seems to have used some kind of medicine to cover it up. The smell, it disappears completely very quickly and is difficult to keep track of.”

The ninja who had previously been investigating the traces heard this and said, "How come there is only one person? There should be two."

Parker shook the dog's head and said, "I only smell the scent of one person."

In fact, they were both right. It was indeed two people fighting, but the Phantom Body was a product of Yin Escape and had no unique smell of its own, so all Parker could smell was the smell of white leaves.

It was precisely because Qingshi and others were being hunted by Konoha Anbu that after discovering Shiroye's traces in advance, they did not choose to take a detour, but prepared to fight quickly. After all, from their perspective, their own side was far stronger than Bai Ye alone.

It's a pity that Shiroye's strength is not comparable to that of ordinary jounin. Although he has not reached the Kage level, he certainly exceeds most of the elite jounin.

······

Bai Ye didn't know that his action had caused a lot of confusion to the ANBU, as he was still rushing towards Konoha at this time.

One day later, Shiroye returned to Konoha, returned to Danzo Shimura, and returned to his normal life.

The difference is that he went to the sealing class and the research department a lot more times.

Still, this didn't go unnoticed by anyone else because he had a valid reason every time.

In this way, more than two months passed in the blink of an eye.

Time came to August of Konoha 59 years.

One day, Shimura Danzo once again summoned a dozen root ninjas, including Baiye, and secretly left Konoha Village.

Their destination for this trip was apparently a place called the Great Sand Dune of the East within the Kingdom of Wind.

After Baiye learned the name, he immediately understood that he was going to make a deal with Orochimaru again this time.

Not only that, if he guessed correctly, this should be the last transaction. As for the item being traded, there is a high probability that it is the Sharingan arm.

If it was a normal transaction, Danzo Shimura could just send someone there. This has been basically the case for the past three months.

And this time he did not hesitate to take personal risks to enter the Kingdom of Wind, which shows that he attaches great importance to this transaction, so Bai Ye made the above speculation.

Five days later, in the middle of the morning, Danzo Shimura and his party finally arrived at the Great Sand Dune of the East.

As soon as they stopped, a figure suddenly emerged from the sand.

However, before he could fully get out of the ground, he felt a pain in the back of his neck, and then he was pressed hard into the sand, while a sharp kunai was pressed against his neck.

Just as he was about to resist, a cold voice came from his ear: "Don't move."

Listening to this voice, the Sand Demon had no doubt that as long as he dared to move, the other party would definitely pierce his neck.

Seeing that he no longer struggled, Bai Ye said, "Who are you?"

The sand demon immediately replied: "It was Orochimaru-sama who sent me to pick up Danzo-sama."

Danzo Shimura's half-closed eyes opened a little after hearing this, and two words came out clearly in his mouth: "Lead the way."

When Bai Ye heard this, he took back his kunai and stood aside silently.

Sand Demon glanced at Bai Ye with lingering fear, climbed up tremblingly, and walked quickly forward.

Bai Ye always followed him, less than two meters away, ensuring that he could be controlled as soon as possible if an accident occurred.

Soon, the group came to a low cave.

"Is this Orochimaru's research base? I wonder if I can see Yakushi Kabuto?" Shiroye thought to himself.

Kabuto Yakushi had never contacted him since the last time they saw each other, which made him doubt whether his judgment was correct.

However, he is not in a hurry. The most important thing at the moment is to take advantage of this opportunity to solve the big problem of Danzo Shimura.

Ten minutes later, everyone finally reached the depths of the base after stumbling around.

Bai Ye also saw Orochimaru again. He still looked like that, and his whole temperament was terrifyingly cold.

With far superior perception than ordinary people, he could clearly detect that the other party looked more like a snake than three months ago.

"Orochimaru, where are my things?" Shimura Danzo asked directly without any nonsense, and claimed the Sharingan arm as his own.

Orochimaru didn't care about this either, what he wanted more was a few qualified experimental subjects.

That's right, in Orochimaru's eyes, Shimura Danzo is just his experimental subject. After all, once there is a problem with that arm, he is the only one who can ultimately solve it.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru's eyes showed anticipation, he stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, and said, "Follow me."

Hearing this, Danzo Shimura glanced behind him and said, "No. [-], you come with me, the others will stay where they are."

Bai Ye heard this and said to himself: "It seems that Shimura Danzo is still guarding against Orochimaru. Also, his right arm is now close to being disabled and his strength is far inferior to Orochimaru, so he can only take me with him."

Afterwards, the three of them quickly walked through the long and narrow corridor and came to a laboratory.

However, the situation here is different from what Bai Ye imagined, and it seems a bit empty.

He scanned the surroundings carefully. Judging from the traces left behind, many of the equipment here seemed to have been dismantled not long ago.

In the middle of the laboratory, an upright glass container was filled with light green liquid, and there was an arm floating in the liquid.

Looking carefully, it is a right arm. Compared with ordinary arms, its skin color is extremely pale, which is nothing. What is even weirder is that it is inlaid with ten three magatama sharingan eyes.

Bai Ye looked at this arm, and to be honest, he felt a little disgusted.

However, Danzo Shimura didn't think so. He thought this was a perfect arm.

At this time, Orochimaru spoke: "According to your request, the physical energy contained in this arm is stronger than the spiritual energy of the ten Sharingan eyes. The liquid inside can temporarily inhibit the activity of Hashirama cells, thereby reducing the physical energy. , to achieve the current balance.”

While he was speaking, he glanced at Shimura Danzo's bandaged right eye intentionally or unintentionally, and he had obviously guessed something.

Only then did Danzo Shimura look away from the Sharingan arm in front of him and asked, "How long can the liquid inside last?"

Orochimaru answered neatly: "About seven days."

Shimura Danzo looked thoughtful after hearing this.

Seeing this, Orochimaru continued with some anticipation: "Do you want me to put it on for you?"

Upon hearing this, Shimura Danzo immediately refused: "No, although I don't have many talented people at the root, transplanting an arm can still be done."

Orochimaru said with some disappointment: "It's up to you."

He originally wanted to see with his own eyes whether there would be any interesting changes in this arm after transplantation, but now it seems that it is impossible.

Shimura Danzo would not dare to perform surgery on Orochimaru. After all, this was not his territory. How could he feel at ease with his suspicious character?
