Chapter 92: Darkness of the Ninja World
🕑 Added 2025-05-21 02:12:34 +0000 UTC"Uzumaki, Ki, Na..." Shimura Danzo said word by word.
The shape of that shadow was very similar to Uzumaki Kushina's shadow, and it was also a shadow that rescued Uzumaki Kushina that day.
And that voice also sounded like Uzumaki Kushina's voice, but he had never heard Uzumaki Kushina laugh so strangely.
"Hi~, Lord Danzo, it's me~." Uzumaki Kushina's voice came out from the shadow.
"You are so brave that you actually went deep into the base of the Root organization to attack me. Now that you are here, don't even think about leaving." Danzo said, raising his hand to move a handle on the bookshelf.
"Buzz——" accompanied by a faint buzzing sound, the air in the entire root tissue stagnated.
"Barrier? Hehe~" Although she didn't see the entire root tissue's barrier in its entirety, Kushina could feel by perception alone that it was a barrier-type barrier that posed no threat to her.
Hearing Uzumaki Kushina's relaxed yet slightly sarcastic laughter, Danzo gritted his teeth and realized that this barrier could not do anything to the other party.
"That jutsu that moves in the shadows... could it be some kind of space-time jutsu?" Danzo thought to himself.
He also has a barrier that can seal space-time ninjutsu in an area, and he used it to deal with Minato Namikaze before.
However, the barrier cannot be activated by a mechanism, but requires standing at the point of the array and performing hand seals.
For Danzo now, he obviously does not have this condition.
However, there is no need to rush, as he has already activated the Root Organization's barrier.
Then naturally his subordinates will go outside to open the barrier that seals the time and space ninjutsu. This is the rule of the Root and does not require his special orders.
"Are you here to kill me?" In order to delay time, Danzo spoke.
"No, I'm not here to kill you." Uzumaki Kushina didn't seem to sense Danzo's intention to delay time, and answered casually with a smile.
"But no matter how I look at it, you seem to want to kill me." Danzo said coldly.
"I'm here for revenge." Uzumaki Kushina's voice became even shriller.
"Hehe, Danzo, don't worry, I won't let you die easily. I will make you feel incomparable pain and let you die in pain, fear and regret. Only in this way can I feel happy."
"That's enough for this time, Danzo. I look forward to our next meeting."
Uzumaki Kushina's shadow disappeared, and then the barrier that sealed the time and space ninjutsu unfolded.
"Huh~, huh~" Danzo looked around, listened to the footsteps coming from outside, breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down on the ground limply.
He covered his leg and blood was flowing.
The Root Organization has a special medical department. After all, many of the tasks performed by Root Organization members are shady.
If the patient was treated at the Konoha Hospital, there was a high possibility of leaving evidence behind, so Danzo established a special medical department in the Root.
Moreover, he can use the cover of this medical department to conduct many human experiments and drug experiments that can be explained openly.
However, thanks to the Root's medical department, Danzo received immediate treatment and did not die from the heavy bleeding.
However, his foot had been gnawed off and then eaten, and only some fragments of flesh and bones were found under the desk, so it was impossible to reattach the severed limb.
If other people's limbs are used for grafting, various rejection reactions will occur, and such rejection reactions will affect the meridians in the body and may even make him unable to use ninjutsu in the future.
As a result, he lost his leg and had to get a prosthesis to stand up.
…………
In this way, about another month passed. After a month of precaution, Shimura Danzo did not encounter any attacks. However, when he relaxed.
One night...
Danzo Shimura, who was sleeping, suddenly smelled some strange smell. He frowned, turned over in bed, and then woke up suddenly.
He woke up and turned on the light, and then he found that there was green gas floating out of the shadow beside his bed.
"Poison?!" Danzo Shimura was shocked and quickly broke the glass and rushed out of the room.
Although he reacted quickly, he had already inhaled a lot of toxins before he woke up.
So, in the next few days, small bumps began to appear all over his body, which were painful and itchy.
After that, every few days when he was alone, he could hear Uzumaki Kushina's mocking laughter. It was as if the woman came here specifically to admire his wreckage and take pleasure in it.
"That damn woman, she should have been killed together with the Nine-Tails before." Danzo leaned against the bed, cursing with gritted teeth.
Beside him, several Root ninjas had unchanged expressions, still vigilantly watching every corner around them, as if they didn't hear what Danzo said.
These people were all Danzo's confidants, and they were also members who participated in the assassination of the Fourth Hokage and his wife.
However, this was the first time they knew that the attacker who had harmed Danzo so badly was actually the previously missed Uzumaki Kushina.
They were still very surprised in their hearts, but they had already learned at the Root that they should not listen to things, so they pretended not to hear anything, so as to avoid Lord Danzo taking his anger out on them.
Danzo took a deep breath, his face thoughtful.
No matter how much you scold or complain now, it’s useless. What’s important is how he should deal with it.
Somehow Uzumaki Kushina mastered the super powerful shadow technique and was able to travel freely through space in the shadows. Among his subordinates there were members of the Nara clan, so he knew that this was something that even the Nara clan could not do.
Also, the thing that attacked him under the desk before.
Judging from the feeling he had when he was attacked, and the chewing sounds afterwards, it could be seen that the thing that attacked him was not a human, but some kind of monster.
In other words, not only can Uzumaki Kushina herself travel through shadows, but she can also allow other creatures to travel through shadows.
"Is it some kind of bloodline limit?" He thought of the scene when Uzumaki Kushina was rescued.
At that time, Uzumaki Kushina obviously didn't know any shadow techniques, otherwise she wouldn't have waited patiently for him to extract the tailed beast...
Extract the tailed beast? !
By the way, the Nine-Tails had already been pulled out of Uzumaki Kushina's body at that time. Under normal circumstances, Uzumaki Kushina would have been dead.
And Uzumaki Kushina, who attacked him before, never revealed her true form, only one eye.
Perhaps, Uzumaki Kushina is no longer a living person, but has become some kind of ghost-like existence.
Danzo shook his head, not accepting this possibility as the only truth for the time being.
Instead, consider another situation. If Uzumaki Kushina is still alive, it means that the guy who helped Uzumaki Kushina has the magical ability to bring the dead back to life.
How could such a person or organization be unknown? Therefore, he should take the initiative to look for the enemy's traces.
Shadow magic, whirlpools, and the secret art of resurrection, these are very important clues.
"Damn woman, who do you think I am?" Danzo muttered to himself gloomily.
"I am Shimura Danzo, known to the world as the Darkness of the Ninja World!"
