The world begins with refining skills

Chapter 389 New Life! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Northwest of Konoha Village, at the foot of a hill near the edge of the barrier.

The original location of the underground base has now become a large pit, nearly tens of meters wide.

Looking through the pit, one sees layers of ruins and broken walls forming an underground structure.

At this moment, the Root Base was filled with fighting and battles.

Hundreds of Hyuga clan ninja stormed into the Root base, which had remained unknown to outsiders, through the breach left by the explosion.

"There are three enemies lying in ambush behind the wall twelve meters ahead!"

"understand!"

"Prepare the detonating tags!"

More than a dozen Hyuga ninjas took out kunai with explosive tags attached and threw them out together.

The target area was hit precisely!

boom! boom! boom!
After more than a dozen explosions, the walls of the target area, along with the Root ninjas behind them, were destroyed in the blasts.

"Danger cleared! Proceed!"

Without the slightest delay, the Hyuga ninja team continued deeper into the Root base.

As the main base of Danzo Shimura, the Root Base not only has a complex terrain, but also various mechanisms can be seen everywhere.

If an enemy unfamiliar with the terrain were to attack, these traps and hidden weapons alone would result in heavy losses.

However, what Shimura Danzo did not expect was that one day his Root base would be breached by a group of Hyuga ninjas.

For the Hyuga clan, whose members each possess a pair of Byakugan, no matter how complex the terrain or how numerous the mechanisms, nothing can escape the Byakugan's ability to see through them.

"This battle is too easy! Just lock onto the enemy with your Byakugan, and then a barrage of fire finishes it off!"

Hinata Kazutoshi excitedly said that this kind of battle, where you sweep through everything in your path, can easily get people's blood pumping.

"It's not that simple. The family spent most of its funds acquiring explosive tags for this operation."

Hinata Hikoto said, "All this ease was bought with money."

If ordinary ninjas carried out missions in this way, they would probably go bankrupt after only a few missions.

The mission rewards aren't even enough to cover the cost of buying the detonating talismans!
"Keep moving forward, but be careful. Most of the Root ninjas possess unique secret techniques. Don't lose your lives because of carelessness!"

"Yes, Elder Ryota!"

"At all times, at least three members of our tribe have their Byakugan activated in our team, so there won't be any problems!"

Ryota Hinata didn't say anything more, and he also thought it was unlikely that they would be ambushed.

The reminder I just gave stemmed more from the caution of a ninja.

Ryota Hyuga and his group continued onward, and there were many other ninja squads like theirs.

At this moment, they are all attacking deep into the root base from different directions.

At the very bottom of the entire Root base, in an area of ​​several hundred square meters, Uchiha Shisui, who had gone ahead, had already found his target.

"Uchiha Shisui Hinata Hizashi"

Danzo Shimura glared at the two men in front of him with hatred. He never expected that the Uchiha and Hyuga would actually join forces.

And they even dared to invade his roots!
"You're wrong, Lord Danzo, I am Hiashi!" Hiashi Hyuga corrected him earnestly.

"Rizu."

The momentum that Shimura Danzo had gathered was momentarily halted.

Why do those damn Hyuga brothers look so alike?!
Moreover, how dare the Uchiha and Hyuga underestimate him so much? Among those who came to deal with him, there wasn't even a clan leader.

You underestimate me!
'Did they all go to Hiruzen's side?'

Danzo Shimura was even angrier. This annoying old monkey always managed to get ahead of him in everything.

Hiruzen Sarutobi inside the stomach of the Shinigami:
"Leave this to me. You go and lead the others to safeguard all of Root's important intelligence and resources."

"Yes! Master Shisui!"

Hiashi Hyuga bowed his head in response. Although they were in the same camp, Shisui Uchiha, who had awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, held a position far above him, a surrendered general.

Hiashi Hyuga took a few steps back and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

"Arrogant fool, don't underestimate me, Shimura Danzo!" Shimura Danzo roared, launching the first attack.

He already felt looked down upon, and now that another one had left, Shimura Danzo could no longer suppress his anger.

"Wind Release: Vacuum Breakthrough!"

In the dark underground space, a sudden gust of wind arose from the ground.

A violent storm swept towards Uchiha Shisui, the gale carrying a large amount of wind-style chakra.

Each wield of Wind Release chakra is like a sharp blade capable of cutting through iron like mud.

As the strong winds passed, deep cutting marks appeared on the cement ground.

"Ninja Art: Summoning Jutsu!"

Shimura Danzo launched a Wind Release attack to suppress the enemy, and then immediately summoned his summoning beast, Baku.

As soon as the Dream Eater appeared, it opened its huge mouth, as if it was about to inhale and devour.

"Summoning a summoning beast in front of the Uchiha clan is not a good choice."

Uchiha Shisui's gaze sharpened, his eyes instantly turning blood red, and the three jet-black tomoe spun rapidly, transforming into a scythe-shaped pattern.

Mangekyou Sharingan! Awakened!
At the same time, the Sharingan appeared in the Baku's eyes, and its swallowing action stopped instantly.

"Didn't Lord Danzo always believe that it was the Uchiha clan that released the Nine-Tails from the Fourth Hokage's wife?"

Using his superb Body Flicker Technique, Uchiha Shisui easily dodged Shimura Danzo's Wind Release ninjutsu.

"Even the Nine-Tails couldn't escape the Sharingan's control, so how dare Lord Danzo summon a summoning beast in front of me?"

With a thought from Uchiha Shisui, the Baku swung its large nose and hurled it at Shimura Danzo.

Bang!
Its enormous size, combined with the whip-like lashing, instantly created a large crater in the ground.

"hateful!"

Danzo Shimura never expected that the summoning beast he had just summoned would become Shisui Uchiha's toy.

This made him feel like he had been NTR'd in front of everyone!
"untie!"

Danzo Shimura immediately dispelled the summoning jutsu, but the Baku remained.

They also joined forces with Uchiha Shisui to attack him from both sides.

It's like a delicate wife being raped in front of her husband, and then being tied up and prevented from leaving when he tries to.

This is so unfair to honest people!

"Wind Release: Vacuum Rush!"

Danzo Shimura's body began to spin rapidly, and wind-style ninjutsu, like ropes, shot out from his mouth and flew in all directions.

In the dark underground space, a spherical storm that was expanding rapidly suddenly appeared.

With his Sharingan, Uchiha Shisui instantly found an opening in Shimura Danzo's Wind Release technique and skillfully dodged it.

However, the large Baku was not so lucky; deep, long bloodstains quickly appeared on its body.

Phew! Phew!
A large amount of blood gushed from the Baku's wounds, splattering across the underground space and almost completely covering the concrete floor.

"Ouch~~"

After letting out a mournful cry, the dream-eating beast collapsed heavily into a pool of blood.

The poor summoned beast died at the hands of its own master as soon as it appeared.

The husband got angry and beat his wife to death.

Well, in a sense, the problem is solved. "Evil Uchiha, I knew you lot would pose a terrible threat to Konoha!"

Having personally killed his own summoning beast, Danzo Shimura was utterly enraged.

Compared to the unpredictable nature of human hearts, the Baku was his most trusted partner.

"Incompetent rage!"

Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan spun slightly.

[Kaleidoscope Eye Technique: Declaration of Peace!]

Danzo Shimura then discovered that his body was suddenly out of control, like an old computer that couldn't load high-definition images.

"my body."

Danzo Shimura tried his best to control his hands, attempting to form a hand seal.

A handprint that could give him a chance to turn the tables!
"Want to use Izanagi?"

Uchiha Shisui appeared in front of Shimura Danzo, raised his hand, and a blood-red three-tomoe Sharingan appeared in his hand.

"Too slow, Lord Danzo!"

Uchiha Shisui took out a reagent bottle and preserved the Sharingan of the unknown clansman.

Only then did Danzo Shimura feel the excruciating pain in his right eye.

When Uchiha Shisui gouged out his eyes, he also tore out the nerves and blood vessels behind them.

"Damn it"

The intense pain, however, stimulated Danzo Shimura, causing a surge of power within him that enabled him to complete the hand seals.

"The Four Elephants Seal!"

"Come to hell with me, Uchiha Shisui!"

Suddenly, a large amount of black water gushed out from Shimura Danzo's body, covering an area of ​​ten meters in radius.

The black water then rapidly contracted, sealing away everything within its range.

"Hiruzen."

Before losing consciousness, the last person that appeared in Shimura Danzo's mind was Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had haunted him his entire life.

'The next time we meet, it'll probably be in hell.'

'Old monkey, you're probably regretting it to death now!'

Danzo Shimura smiled, and then he was gone.

The darkness of the ninja world has come to an end!

Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that Hiruzen Sarutobi had already been swallowed by the Grim Reaper, and the Grim Reaper had been imprisoned in the [Pure Land of the Underworld] by Maki.

He figured he wouldn't be able to see Hiruzen Sarutobi from down there.

Uchiha Shisui's figure suddenly appeared beside Shimura Danzo's corpse.

Clearly, Danzo's desperate last stand failed to seal away Shisui's Body Flicker!

"He just died like that"

Uchiha Shisui never expected that the Root leader, who had gradually driven the Uchiha clan to their doom, was actually only so strong.

In Uchiha Shisui's opinion, Danzo's strength was at best only at the Kage level, and even some elite Jonin could probably defeat him.

"Is it because they are weak yet occupy a high position that they are so wary of the stronger individuals below them?"

Uchiha Shisui seemed to understand why Shimura Danzo harbored such great hostility towards the Uchiha clan.

"As expected, Konoha Village's old system is no longer suitable for this era!"

Because of his immense strength, Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage, had enough confidence to suppress the Uchiha clan, which is why the relationship between the Uchiha and the village was at its most harmonious at that time.

The Second Hokage lacked sufficient strength, so he created the Konoha Police Department to limit the development of the Uchiha clan.

The Third Hokage was even weaker, and several elders didn't even have Kage-level strength, which is why they were so wary of the Uchiha clan, who were full of geniuses and had great ambitions.

This almost forced the Uchiha clan to launch a coup.

The problem that had troubled Uchiha Shisui for many years was solved in an instant.

"All the problems are Hiruzen Sarutobi's fault!"

"If he hadn't been so weak, things wouldn't have turned out this way," Uchiha Shisui said bitterly.

Now that the Sarutobi clan has been wiped out, Root has been destroyed, and there have been casualties among the Anbu and other ninjas, Konoha's losses are undeniably severe.

All of these losses were attributed by Uchiha Shisui to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Hiruzen Sarutobi: So you think you can slander dead people at will?
Thankfully, Hiruzen Sarutobi is already dead, otherwise, with all these accusations pinned on him, he would have been furious enough to die.

Hearing the faint sounds of fighting and explosions coming from the darkness, Uchiha Shisui's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.

With his intervention, Konoha Village's losses will be reduced.

In a dormitory room on the third floor of the underground base, a group of children aged three or four to ten were hiding.

The Hyuga clan's sudden attack caught Root completely off guard.

Everyone was busy defending against the invading enemy, and these children who were still in training were simply forgotten.

"The sounds outside seem to have disappeared." Xin, with his white hair, pressed his head against the wall, listening intently to the sounds outside the room.

He has been at the base for three years, and every day he is either training or on his way to training.

The brutal training, while ravaging his body, also gave Shin, at only eight years old, strength approaching that of a Chunin.

This level of skill might make him a minor genius among his peers, but at the root level, he's nothing special.

"What should we do? Should we take this opportunity to go out and take a look?"

Xin hesitated. If the Roots had eliminated the enemy, that would be fine. But if the invading enemies had defeated the Roots, then it would be very dangerous for him to go out now.

"what to do."

Just as Xin was still hesitating, the dormitory door was suddenly pushed open.

A man wearing a Konoha headband and a short-sleeved shirt with a stand-up collar and a fan-shaped design walked in from outside.

The gentle aura emanating from the other person instantly confirmed to Xin that this person was not a member of Root.

'They're the enemy!'

However, just as Xin was about to fight to the death, he noticed something on the other person's head.

Leaf-shaped headband?

Shin was stunned. Could it be that the people of Konoha were attacking Root?
Uchiha Shisui looked at the children in the room. Their tender faces lacked any of the innocence that children should have; instead, they had only a numb, icy expression.

Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but curse in his heart once again for Shimura Danzo's evil and Sarutobi Hiruzen's hypocrisy.

"The root system has been abolished; you are free!"

"Come on, leave this place with me. You won't have to live in the dark underground anymore!"

After saying that, Uchiha Shisui turned and walked away.

Perhaps it was Uchiha Shisui's gentle temperament, or perhaps these children were already used to obeying orders.

The children quickly followed them outside.

After passing through a dark underground passage, Shin and his group of friends followed Uchiha Shisui to the outside of the base.

The bright, warm sunlight shone on my body, dispelling the chill that had seeped into my bones.

Three years later, the letter once again brings the warmth of sunshine!
