Chapter 206: The Arrival of the Hokage
🕑 Added 2021-12-11 10:33:59 +0000 UTC- Khhh! No-no ... - shuddering and seeing the complete defeat of his people, Danz only had to use the rest of his forces to escape. He clearly understood that now he could be saved, because he was in Konoha, in his native village!
But how can someone so weak, struggling with natural energies, compete in speed with Shikamaru?
There was a crash, and the luminous palm of Susano arrived at Danz like a fly.
- Where are you going? It is not very worthy of you to run away on business during a battle, you are still an elder ... Although, a busy person, I understand.
Shikamaru shook his head.
- Okay, - after his words, Susano instantly dissipated, Danzo seized the moment and with his last strength jumped up, folded his hand seal and inhaled deeply.
"Wow, with one hand ..." - Shikamaru did not expect much from this technique, just a hail of air bullets, from which he dodged without any problems. With the dojutsu activated, he not only saw every attack of the enemy, he clearly saw even drops of chakra in each of the bullets. It all happened so slowly that Shikamaru didn't even need to be serious. Along the way, he beat up several impudent people who tried to use Ninjutsu in this confined space and knocked out the whole crowd of Anbu Root. In Sage Mode and Under the Eight Gates, he was nearly invulnerable!
Danz was at his limit, without Izanami, he really did not reach a serious opponent.
But the old man himself did not expect to stop Shikamaru with his wind element, he opened his right eye! It was then that Shikamaru frowned for the first time and immediately closed the distance with the enemy. Danz really decided to use the power of the remaining eye.
“Kotoamatsukami? Or ... "- but we never managed to find out, because Danzo's head rolled from his shoulders, just like the hand, separated from the body. Danz continued to stand in horror, trying to turn his head, but all that moved was his neck and his head on the ground, unable to understand what was happening.
Shikamaru stopped abruptly next to Danz's body, folded a row of seals and punched him in the chest.
- Seal.
Shikamaru simply insured himself, knowing about the enemy's special fuin.
Having lost his head, Shimura could do nothing more, could not understand what was happening. He had chakra to use the Dojutsu, but he couldn't see Shikamaru, he couldn't do anything! For the first time in his life, Danz felt so helpless ... When suddenly a cold voice was heard, somewhere very close:
"You're late ..." Shikamaru grabbed Danz's head by the hair and pulled out Shisui's eye with a light motion. The second time this unfortunate eye was mercilessly ripped out of its socket in the same cruel manner. Shikamaru did not want to risk it, he knew little about the abilities of this Dojutsu - getting rid of it would be the best solution. Danz's slowness and confidence brought him to this point, and he just couldn't use Izanagi properly. The first time he did it, but how could he repeat the process without his arm? As an Uchiha, he could have tried, but only, he is not an Uchiha at all ...
`` Cute. '' Examining the red, blood-stained eyeball, Shikamaru looked into Danz's remaining narrowed eye.
`` I know all your tricks, old man, every one of them ... '' Shikamaru sighed with a sharp change in his face.
- Looks like sensei found out about our skirmish with you, promptly ... We have somewhere, a minute ... I put up a barrier, so we can thank your discretion. You've secured the hideout enough. I even have time to rummage around here ...
- Y-you ... How ... Whoa ...
Shikamaru smiled innocently, peering at the burned-out fire of the defeated old man who could not accept reality, separated from the body:
- You really do not fill your head with unnecessary thoughts ... From you alive, there are more problems for me. But, don't be afraid, I'll find a replacement for the Hokage, I have someone in mind. After that, Konoha will change. With my strength, you don't have to worry about much, old man, I'll take care of the village and your Root ... Goodbye, ”after a short nod, Shikamaru extended his finger and calmly pierced Danz's skull in the most important area of the brain. A volley of chakra, turned the whole brain into mush. Throwing aside the severed firebrand, Shikamaru walked unhurriedly to each defeated enemy and deprived them of their chakra. After that, he went to another place.

Meanwhile, Hiruzen and the Anbu squad reached the back cliff and the closed Root territory. The Hokage clearly knew that even after his order, Danz continued to conduct his affairs in secret. But now, having received a report from the Barrier team and also feeling a strong surge of chakra, Hiruzen simply could not ignore such an anomaly on the territory of the village.
Finding himself in front of the hidden entrance to the Root, the Hokage made sure that everything is not so simple here. Danz's hideout has always been protected by many barriers and fuin seals, so it won't be so easy to force your way into it. But certainly not for the Hokage. Only this time, the old man was in for a surprise ...
- This barrier ... - at the gates of the dungeon, the Anbu squad, led by Hiruzen, stopped motionless, none of them could take a step further.
- Damn it ... - The Hokage immediately realized that the matter was too serious - he had not yet seen such a barrier, but he quickly determined that it would definitely not be easy to break through it by force. He immediately had a plan, he turned to the top ten Anbu:
- Destroy it!
- Yes! - at the same time, everyone began to fold the seals, while Hiruzen decided to reach the secret passage to the Root. He clearly did not intend to waste time on breaking down such a complex barrier.
Only two people knew about the secret passage, Danzo of course the first. The old man did not want to waste a second, he was already completely sure that this was definitely not without reason, not even a day had passed since Shikamaru arrived in the village, and something strange was already happening. It didn't mean anything, but Hiruzen had a bad feeling ...
"What's going on there ..." - the burst of chakra was suppressed for a long time, the battle was probably over, but this only intensified Hiruzen's ominous foreboding. It sped up!
At the same time, Shikamaru went several floors deeper and continued to deal with annoying opponents all this time. Not surprisingly, Danzos did not come to save everyone, but they were only happy to prevent the intruder, floor by floor, and the enemies did not end. So Shikamaru finally reached the bottommost area. He had no doubt that Danz was probably hiding something here. Behind the walls of the Root, he could not see the inner halls, but, having penetrated into the Root, he was able to see everything except one hidden place. Shikamaru naturally headed there.
