Naruto: Who made him a ninja?

It's just that Hidezawa couldn't help but complain in his heart that Madara Uchiha's slash was just a casual one, while his own was a full-blown ultimate move.

"Ultimate move no match for a basic attack?"

In fact, he also knew that the fifth stage Susanoo was also an ultimate move for Madara Uchiha, who hadn't awakened the Rinnegan.

Moreover, the Susanoo, without the Rinnegan's support, didn't have as many combat options as when he faced the Allied Shinobi Forces.

The difference was that Madara Uchiha could last longer, while Hidezawa estimated that he could only swing this move a few times at full power before having to stop.

It wasn't because of any other reason, like his body couldn't handle it, but rather that his chakra couldn't withstand such consumption.

"This technique really gets stronger with more chakra!"

Hidezawa had a lot of chakra. His LV12 physique naturally provided a large amount of chakra, and he had also leveled up the [Chakra] stat in the system to LV10.

But this still couldn't withstand Hidezawa unleashing his full power. Fortunately, this technique allowed him to control his chakra output, and he could weaken the power to ensure endurance.

"Thank you for your encouragement, Lord Danzo, but what should we do now?"

Hidezawa's mind was also filled with thoughts about his own 'Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.' He was quite satisfied with this experiment.

This meant that his attack methods would become more diverse in the future. When necessary, he might not even need to 'pilot a Gundam' and could directly go for a 'flesh-body Gundam takedown!'

But he wouldn't tell Danzo about these things. He even pretended to be weak.

"Shisui Uchiha is already dead, and even his body can't be found. Moreover, this time the commotion was so big that the village is probably already investigating and taking action. We..."

"Forget it, now that things have come to this, let's leave."

Danzo shook his head and spoke, but he was also extremely depressed in his heart. His Mangekyo Sharingan was gone just like that!

However, the only thing worth celebrating was probably that Shisui Uchiha was dead. The disappearance of this Uchiha clan Mangekyo was not a bad thing for him.

Without such a troublesome person, wouldn't the Uchiha clan be at his mercy in the future?

Now, he was more concerned about how to stabilize Hidezawa and the subsequent troubles.

Moreover, he now had an even more urgent desire for the power of Wood Release, even Hidezawa's power!

However, he couldn't reveal these things. He tried his best to suppress the greed in his heart and said in a low voice.

"You have consumed too much today. Go back and rest well. I will handle the rest."

"Also, I will give you all the information about Orochimaru, both past and present, nothing will be left out."

Speaking of this, Danzo paused, patted Hidezawa's shoulder, and continued.

"Orochimaru is a disciple of Hiruzen Sarutobi. It was his nostalgia and indulgence that allowed him to leave safely back then."

"I am different from Hiruzen. Although I am also nostalgic, I am more willing to take care of subordinates who perform better because we are Root."

"Hidezawa, you have performed extremely well. This time, I will open up Root's permissions for you. I can provide you with any information you want."

"And I swear, I will take you to complete your revenge, because Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nonou are also my subordinates!"

"How disgusting!"

In Konoha Village, at a remote wooden house, Hidezawa's figure instantly crossed space and arrived here.

He glanced at the special kunai on the ground, arranged in a triangular shape, and recalling the 'gentle' words Danzo had said to him, Hidezawa only felt disgusted.

If he didn't know what kind of person Danzo was, Hidezawa would probably have been deceived by this guy.

But Hidezawa had been 'devoting' himself to Danzo as a workhorse for so many years. How could he not know the details of this guy?

Back then, he was heavily attacked in the training camp, and during mission trials, he was required to slaughter the entire bandit camp, regardless of age.

After that, when performing various silencing missions, he also had to be marked with curse seals and brainwashed from time to time to erase his emotions. After a set of procedures, it was already considered self-awareness that Hidezawa hadn't strangled Danzo to death.

After all, he couldn't beat him back then.

Now, Hidezawa could strangle him to death, but letting him die so easily didn't seem worthwhile. Hidezawa hadn't finished repaying his 'kindness'!

"If you don't become a top figure in the ninja world, world-renowned, then it will be my mistake, but all of this is coming soon..."

Looking back at the three years from when he left Root until now, he had really brought a lot of 'traffic' to Danzo.

Although some of it was passive, more of it was his active efforts. He was now silently continuing to let Danzo 'continue to become popular.'

When a 'breaking point' came, he would completely make Danzo a legend in the ninja world!

Shaking his head, Hidezawa no longer continued to think about Danzo. The reason why Danzo had suddenly become 'gentle' was probably because he had seen the power he was now displaying.

Moreover, Danzo thought he was hiding it well, but Hidezawa was even more of a veteran!

Combining his understanding of Danzo before his transmigration, this guy was probably already eyeing his abilities.

Although Danzo liked to collect subordinates, he even more longed to possess the same abilities himself. Perhaps the impressions that Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha left on him were too deep.

"Are you okay? Although I hit you a little hard, I think you shouldn't be dying, right?"

Dismissing distracting thoughts, Hidezawa walked into the dilapidated house, and soon he saw Shisui, who was ragged, covered in blood.

"And please rest assured, this place was originally supposed to be a place for the Fourth Hokage to cultivate. There is his Flying Thunder God here, so it's relatively suitable to hide here temporarily."

"You bastard, you really wanted to kill me, right..."

Shisui shook his head dejectedly. His current state was indeed a bit terrible, whether it was the pressure his eyes were under or the injuries he had suffered.

The third stage Susanoo was still too much for him. It consumed too much from him, and because it was too forced, his Susanoo wasn't very big either.

This was also one of the reasons why Hidezawa's slash directly shattered the Susanoo. Even if the third stage Susanoo couldn't compare to the fifth stage, its defense was really not bad!

However, it was indeed Hidezawa who saved him. Before they completely started acting, Hidezawa used a Wood Clone in advance.

When the 'Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion' destroyed his Susanoo with a single slash, the Wood Clone directly used the Flying Thunder God to drag him away and teleport him here.

However, even if Hidezawa's movements were fast, the power he unleashed was too great, and Shisui really couldn't withstand it.

"If I really wanted to kill you, would you still have the strength to talk to me?"

Hidezawa rolled his eyes, then sat down and took out a bottle of medicine.

"Eat it. It was prepared by Lady Tsunade, but it's useless to me.

Although I can try to help you with chakra, I have consumed a lot myself, so I can only rely on you now."

"Thank you."

Shisui didn't stand on ceremony. He took the vial, opened it, and swallowed a pill. Soon, he felt a considerable improvement throughout his body.

It could only be said that Tsunade's expertise in medical ninjutsu was truly remarkable. Back then, she even managed to break Chiyo's poisons.

However, the materials for these medicines seemed to have been acquired from the Nara clan, making Hidezawa somewhat hesitant to comment.

"Now can you tell me your plans?"

After a moment, Shisui seemed to have recovered somewhat. Only then did he raise his head and look at Hidezawa, asking.

"My plan has already failed. Are you keeping me alive so I can do it again in the future? If that's the case, rest assured, as long as I have the opportunity, I..."

"Just be quiet for a moment, Shisui."

Before Shisui could finish speaking, Hidezawa helplessly shook his head, interrupting him.

"Dealing with troublesome matters is necessary, but it's not the way you imagine. I originally thought you would be a bit smarter.

But you're even more foolish than I thought. It seems you've only grasped one layer of meaning, and the rest seems to have been completely ignored by you."

"Only grasped one layer?"

Shisui frowned slightly. He didn't understand what Hidezawa meant. Hidezawa simply sat down and said helplessly,

"Changing the outside world, striking back hard against those who persecute you, even directly eliminating them, is a very good solution.

But you've never considered how much influence that person has already had on you. What you're doing now has reached an extreme.

Retreating is impossible. No one will agree. Even if you rewrite their thoughts, you can't prove anything.

Especially with Danzo's death, their sudden change will only invite greater suspicion.

Advancing further is also impossible. You don't have the strength to do it at all.

I told you, to change all of this, besides solving external factors, you also need to change yourselves, Shisui.

But you seem to have completely ignored this point."

Hearing Hidezawa's words, Shisui clenched his fists slightly, and his whole person seemed to fall into silence.

Regarding Hidezawa's words, perhaps he truly didn't know, or perhaps he didn't want to know, but at this moment, he only knew that his mind was truly in chaos.

"I understand. You value the clan very much. After all, it's the place that raised you, just like the village. You want to protect and maintain it."

Looking at the silent Shisui, Hidezawa shrugged and continued,

"But you seem to have overlooked some issues. Some people within your clan have already undergone changes imperceptibly.

Admittedly, the culprit is Danzo, that's right, but think carefully, why did the people in the clan split into two factions?

And I also have a question to ask you. For a clan, is the clan leader's power great?"

"The clan leader leads the clan... Naturally, their power is great."

Shisui didn't answer his first question because he didn't know how to answer it, but he had a bad feeling about the clan leader.

"Yes, very great. Then I'm very curious, why didn't he integrate your two factions and let your clan have only one voice?"

Hidezawa nodded, then he asked, seemingly full of curiosity.

"We in the Anbu all know that actions must integrate thoughts. Even if there are disagreements, after the direction is determined, they must be earnestly implemented.

But your situation leaves me in awe. The clan's internal chaos has reached this point, with the two major factions being unwilling to submit to each other.

And the clan leader hasn't unified everyone's thoughts, like a weathercock, leaning towards whichever side has the louder voice.

To put it nicely, it's called listening to your voices; to put it bluntly, it's called incompetent management.

Of course, it's also possible that he desires your mutual confrontation, because only in this way is his power the most stable."

Hidezawa's words caused a huge impact on Shisui's heart because he truly hadn't thought that the development of some things would actually be like this!

All of this was outrageous to him, but he also couldn't help but think about this question.

The Uchiha have reached this point today. What exactly has their clan leader done?

If this clan leader could have integrated everyone's voices in the beginning, allowing everyone to work hard towards one direction and not be disturbed by external factors, would everything have changed?

"Also, if they didn't compromise during the Nine-Tailed Fox attack, and afterwards showed a tough refusal to acknowledge their guilt, would the Uchiha be like this?"

'What if' arguments always have a market. Although it's hindsight, some things always can't resist being imagined afterwards. The more you think about it, the more you feel that there's something wrong in certain places.

For example, right now, although they haven't reached the final step, everyone knows that the Uchiha are probably really going to plunge into the abyss!

Looking back on the past, Shisui was truly shocked to discover that the source of all internal problems seemed to point to one person, and that was their clan leader!

"Understood?"

Hidezawa looked at Shisui's pale face and gently shook his head.

"So, Shisui, from the beginning, I knew that your actions would have problems. Killing Danzo won't change anything.

Because the Uchiha's main body can't be solved by dealing with just one aspect, and the worst thing you should have is still having illusions in your heart."

Hidezawa stopped here. In his memory, the person in front of him probably didn't understand this matter even until his death.

It's slightly better now. He knows to question Danzo and even actively strike hard against Danzo, but he hasn't given much thought to the problems within the clan.

Moreover, according to his current posture, probably even if he really killed Danzo, he would close his eyes, kick his legs, and leave the rest to gravity, as well as Uchiha Itachi's 'self-reflection,' right?

"Then what about you?"

After being silent for a long while, Shisui finally raised his head, his eyes staring straight at Hidezawa.

"What are your thoughts? Why did you save me, and from the looks of it, you seem to want to save the Uchiha.

I've seen some records. Aren't the Uchiha and Senju eternal enemies? Also, aren't you Danzo's subordinate?

I've always been very curious. What exactly is your position? Can I know what you're really thinking?"

"Me, ah?"

Hidezawa spread out his hands. He couldn't say that Shisui's questions were unanswerable. He would just take it as him being merciful and enlightening his 'old captain.'

"I am indeed Danzo's subordinate, but you need to understand one thing: adhering to whose will makes you whose warrior.

My will is not the same as Danzo's. I am his subordinate but not his warrior. I have my own judgment and pursuits."
