Naruto: From the capture of the main family to the behind-the-scenes mastermind

Chapter 37 Kaleidoscope

"Don't be so angry. You should already have the means to remove it."

Danzo looked at Tsunade indifferently, "You just have to hand it over, and break her curse here, and describe your method of breaking it to me in detail, and you can leave safely."

Tsunade stared at him, "What if I say no?"

Danzo looked at Tsunade's determined expression and smiled contemptuously.

"You no longer have the strength to negotiate with me, Tsunade."

The senior ninja beside him suddenly attacked. With a sharp sound of breaking through the air, a kunai slashed across Shizune's face, and a trace of blood instantly flowed down.

Seeing this, Tsunade's face gradually distorted.

Blood...Silence...Broken!

The memory of that night emerged uncontrollably in my mind, the hollowed-out internal organs, the body that was gradually getting colder...

Tsunade knelt on the ground trembling.

"You are now... just a useless person who can't do anything."

Danzo shook his head, "Go ahead. You're the sensei's granddaughter and I don't want to do anything to you."

"..."

Tsunade's eyes were empty and her pupils were completely out of focus.

Danzo frowned slightly and had a medical ninja treat Shizune and wipe the blood off her face.

Only then did Tsunade's eyes regain some of their luster.

She stared at Shizune and suddenly laughed softly.

"I never thought that I would have this day."

She pulled out a scroll and stood up and walked over to Shizune.

"This is my first time using it and I don't know the consequences. You'd better pray that nothing happens to Shizune!"

Looking at the potion that Tsunade took out and sensing the strange chakra contained in it, Danzo's eyes flickered and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to her!"

As soon as he finished speaking, six masked Root ninjas appeared around Tsunade, and the light green chakra condensed in their hands showed that they were all medical ninjas.

And as the strongest medical ninja, Tsunade could tell at a glance that these people were of top quality.

When did the root foundation become so strong?
Confused, Tsunade began to inject Shizune with the potion.

While injecting, he explained at Danzo's request:
"This is a medicine developed from the cells of the slug immortal. For that immortal, division has become an instinct. The medicine developed from its cells can greatly increase the probability of division."

"If the original A-level splitting technique is actually as difficult as some S-level ninjutsu, after using this potion, it can be reduced to B-level, which is similar to the Shadow Clone Technique."

Danzo said thoughtfully: "Is your method the splitting technique? What is the flaw in the technique?"

"If you fail, you will lose half of your strength, or even die!"

Tsunade said coldly: "You have a member of the Yamanaka clan here, right? Let him control Shizune to perform ninjutsu."

Danzo nodded to a figure, who immediately turned around and controlled Shizune with his mind, then used the splitting technique developed by Tsunade according to Tsunade's instructions.

A senior ninja behind Danzo stared at the scene intently, watching Shizune's body gradually split into two after performing ninjutsu, and one of the bodies did not have the curse seal. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his palms clenched excitedly.

He did not hide this, and Danzo noticed his action and was satisfied.

Hinata Tokuma truly hated the main family and hated the bird in the cage. He could see the darkness in the other's eyes clearly!
It’s ridiculous that the Hyuga main family didn’t notice it.

And after confirming that Shizune had successfully performed the splitting jutsu, Tsunade secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

This was developed from slug fairy cells and contains fairy chakra, which has great research value.

In addition, she regards the living slug as an elder and a friend, so it is impossible for her to always take the other's cells to make this thing, so the quantity is limited, and the live experiment has only been done twice, so the success rate cannot be guaranteed.

She was really worried that Shizune would fail.

Fortunately, everything is fine. Thinking of this, Tsunade turned her gaze to Shizune who had the curse seal, and with a complicated expression, she pressed a palm on her head.

Hinata Tokuma's eyes showed that this palm had directly taken away the opponent's life. Due to the influence of the curse seal, her eyes and nerve tissue were all destroyed.

But... a stream of chakra returned to the other Shizune's body.

what is this?
Confused, Hyuga Tokuma stepped forward and told Danzo.

"Sir, when that body died, some chakra returned to the other body."

Danzo narrowed his eyes, "What is that, Tsunade?"

Tsunade looked at Hyuga Tokuma and frowned at his sharpness and ability to detect that chakra.

Which ninja clan is this from?
Thinking about it, Tsunade said calmly: "Soul."

"soul?"

"That's right. After the split technique is performed, the soul will also be divided into two. However, when one body dies, the other body will recycle that part of the soul. This is similar to the principle of the disappearance of the shadow clone to feedback the original body's experience and memory."

"You can tell from the Spiritualization Technique that the essence of the soul is chakra, so the ninja next to you can tell."

"I see."

Danzo nodded in understanding, "Then can the power of the splitting technique be restored if it is reduced by half?"

"can."

Tsunade said with certainty: "For a split ninja, the two bodies will share the strength equally, and the soul will also be divided equally, which will have a great impact on the strength, and even make it impossible to perform some ninjutsu."

"But when one split body dies, the soul will return like it did just now, but the energy of the split body cannot return, but it can be slowly restored through exercise, and the strength will naturally recover as well."

The process of studying the splitting technique also allowed Tsunade to learn one thing from the living slug, that the opponent's strength is actually far stronger than some of the tailed beasts.

But being split to the extent that she can summon it would seriously reduce her strength. If her true body could be completely summoned, she could even suppress the tailed beasts!

After all, if she split them at the same size as the original body, with that many, she could bury the tailed beasts in it with just the acid she spewed...

To put it simply, it’s not that Katsuki is weak, it’s that Tsunade is not strong enough!
And the reality... is indeed like this.

Looking at Shizune who was sleeping peacefully in her arms, Tsunade had a complicated expression, but soon regained her composure, handed the splitting technique and a scroll to Danzo, and said to him coldly: "It's ok now."

Danzo waved his hand, and all the ninjas around him retreated. Several of them even left the Root directly, making way for Tsunade.

Tsunade wordlessly carried Shizune on her back and slowly walked towards the exit.

"and many more."

When Tsunade was about to reach the end of the passage, Danzo said coldly: "Since Shizune has been engraved with the Root Seal, she is a Root ninja. I only asked you to leave, but I didn't ask her to leave too."

"If you want to take her away, you can. Give me the jutsu to activate the Hyuga branch's caged bird!"

Tsunade paused and lowered her head.

Her scattered hair obscured her face, preventing the surrounding ninjas from seeing her expression.

Only Hinata Tokuma saw a faint chakra suddenly appearing in Tsunade's mind, which was a sign of an illusion!
He had been paying attention to Tsunade before. This extremely weak chakra didn't seem like an illusion that had just been cast, but rather like it had been lurking in Tsunade's mind for a long time.

She was under a spell before she came here? A spell that even tricked her into rolling her eyes?

While thinking, he clearly felt a chill coming over him and looked suddenly to his side.

The eyes behind the mask of another Jonin behind Danzo turned into Sharingan!

The Uchiha clan?
There are Uchiha in the Root, how is it possible!

Did he originally join the Root, or did he infiltrate?

In the eyes of Hyuga Tokuma who was incredulous, the magatama in his eyes spun rapidly and turned into a complex pattern...

The strange chakra in Tsunade's mind suddenly surged!
