It was a dark, quiet night, no different from usual, but tonight, everything would change, and everyone's fate would be changed.
Neji ran wildly, constantly leaping across the rooftops. He already knew Sasuke's answer. As long as he was sure Sasuke would leave the village, he wouldn't have to stay there all the time.
"However, Danzo should know too, right? After all, the two people he sent to watch me just suddenly left." A cold smile appeared on the corner of Neji's mouth.
Since he returned to the village, the two Root ninja watching him showed up quickly. Although they were far away, they didn't know that with the help of his Mind's Eye of the Kagura, their every move was easily grasped by Neji.
Will Danzo let this chance go now that Sasuke has left the village? Obviously not. The agreement reached with Itachi has no binding power on Danzo, especially now that Sarutobi Hiruzen is dead and Sasuke has left the village on his own. This is a great opportunity.
But, it all ends here.
"Danzo, I'm coming to find you now. You don't have to hide in the depths of Konoha anymore." Neji smirked and headed towards Root. After tonight, Konoha would no longer have the Root organization.
The depths of Konoha were dark and damp, without light all year round, more gloomy and terrifying than a haunted house.
Neji stood in front of the gate leading to the Root base. Blocking his way were two Root members wearing masks.
"Who is it?!" When the two Root ninja saw Neji, they immediately looked like they were on guard.
This was Konoha's Root, a little-known area. Generally, no one would come here. Even the Hokage and Anbu usually wouldn't come here, and Neji was clearly not an Anbu member.
"Byakugan, it's someone from the Hyuga clan." One of the Root ninja said in a bad mood. Influenced by Danzo, the Root ninja always held a dismissive attitude towards families with bloodline limits.
In particular, the eyes of the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan could make their concealment impossible, which brought them a lot of trouble, so they naturally wouldn't have a friendly attitude.
"Speak quickly, what are you doing here?! Otherwise, we will deal with you on the charge of being a rogue ninja." Another Root ninja said angrily.
"Hehe, is this how Root ninja act? What a temper." Neji laughed angrily. They were already accusing him of being a rogue ninja. Really... did they think Konoha was their backyard?!
"Boy, what are you saying? Hurry up and say..."
"Get lost!" Neji suddenly released an extremely strong aura, and his Chakra instantly became restless, causing the two Root ninja to swallow the words they were about to say.
"Tell me, where is Danzo?!" Neji's killing intent was fierce and undisguised, causing the two Root ninja's hearts to jump.
However, Root ninja had long been brainwashed by Danzo. They had no past, no emotions, and no future. So, the two Root ninja quickly regained their senses and glared at Neji angrily.
"Boy, what are you trying to do?! Tell the truth!"
"Why waste time talking to him? Just catch him and hand him over to Lord Danzo."
So, one of the Root ninja reached out, instantly forming a sealing technique in his palm, wanting to bind Neji.
"Tch!" Neji looked disdainfully at the sealing technique in his hand and said loudly: "You want to control me with this kind of second-rate sealing technique. You overestimate yourselves and underestimate me!"
Almost in the blink of an eye, Neji moved, instantly disappearing from where he was and appearing directly above the two Root ninja, upside down. His hands grabbed their heads like eagle claws.
"Die!"
"Eight Trigrams Empty Palm!"
Close to their heads, Neji released two waves of air. A slightly weak tremor appeared on the faces of the two Root ninja. Then, with a bang, Neji directly crushed them, and blood flowed all over the ground.
No matter who it was, after their heads were crushed, they shouldn't think about doing anything.
"But don't worry, I will help you complete what you wanted to do." Neji smiled and said disdainfully, looking at the communicators tightly held in the hands of the two Root ninja.
"Danzo, you are really good at brainwashing. Tsk tsk tsk, so loyal. Even when dying, you want to report the news to him. So... no one here will survive."
"Super Strength!"
"Clang..."
Neji suddenly attacked, slamming a heavy punch on the gate leading to the Root base, immediately causing a loud noise. However, to Neji's surprise, the gate was only dented in a large area, but it was not broken.
"Danzo, Danzo, what kind of inhumane experiments did you do inside? Even a gate is made so strong." Neji narrowed his eyes, and an astonishing killing intent erupted.
The main purpose of this door was to prevent people from Konoha from entering.
"Forget it, anyway, you only have today to jump around. I will make you pay for everything you have done."
"Break! Break!"
"Clang~ Clang~"
Neji punched the gate again and again, punching out one dent after another. The powerful force directly shook the surrounding area, causing dust to fall from the underground Root base, shocking everyone in Root.
"What happened?"
"Intruders!!"
"Who?! Who dares to break into Root?!"
In an instant, many Root ninja gathered together and walked towards the gate in a mighty manner.
At the same time, Danzo, who was in the laboratory, was also awakened by the sound of the gate crashing. His body shook, and a drop of an unknown liquid inevitably fell to the ground.
"No, this is the cell I just successfully extracted... Damn it, who is it?!"
Danzo flew into a rage, rushed out of the laboratory, and roared: "Someone!"
In the blink of an eye, a relatively burly ninja with brown-yellow hair and a ninja in all black appeared in front of Danzo.
"Wind, Take Root, immediately bring back the person who broke into Root!"
"Yes!" The two answered in unison, and then turned and left.
After the two left, Danzo muttered: "Damn it, who is it? Could it be Tsunade? No, she just returned to the village today. She will officially take office as Hokage tomorrow."
"Damn it!" Danzo cursed secretly. He couldn't help but want to skin that person alive when he thought that the high-quality cells he had finally extracted were wasted like this.
"Hmph!" Danzo snorted coldly: "No matter who you are, you must die today."
And at this moment, the entire Root, and even some areas of Konoha, heard a loud booming sound.
