Starting from the root of Konoha, he was the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 1: Status bar above the head, no one is afraid! (New book, please support!)
Konoha 36th year, Root Base.

The Root Ninja wearing a cat mask bowed his head respectfully and reported to Danzo: "Sir Danzo, when we were dealing with the bodies, we found that some people were not dead."

Danzo narrowed his eyes after hearing this: "Not dead?"

"The bodies will all be checked by the Anbu first before being handed over to us for disposal."

"Who's not dead?"

The cat-faced Genbu ninja said, "Hideo!"

Danzo immediately stood up after hearing this and said, "Lead the way!"

Xingxia Xiu was a Root ninja he had trained personally, and he was also one of the first ninjas trained by the Root.

The Root sent a lot of people to conduct the Wood Release experiment this time, and Hide Hoshita was one of them.

I originally thought that the entire army was wiped out, but unexpectedly, they survived and the Anbu ninja didn't notice.

"if……"

Danzo's heart instantly heated up: "Should I discuss this matter with Hiruzen..."

While hesitating in his heart, Danzo soon saw the resurrected Xingxia Xiu.

"There's not a single scratch on your body?"

Danzo looked at the unconscious young man.

The cat-faced Root Ninja said, "At first, he was just like the other dead test subjects, but after discovering some signs of life, we cut off the branches growing out of his body. The wounds on his body healed immediately, and his vital signs became stronger and stronger."

"Healing..."

Danzo's eyes were filled with joy, and he immediately said in a deep voice, "This matter is classified as S-level secret. Without my permission, you are not allowed to disclose it to anyone."

The cat-faced ninja raised his head slightly: "Danzo-sama, Hokage-sama..."

Danzo's eyes turned cold, and murderous intent surged: "I said, anyone!"

The cat-faced genbu ninja shuddered, "Yes, Lord Danzo!"

"very good!"

Danzo glanced at the unconscious Xingxia Xiu again, then turned and went out: "Protect him well, and report to me as soon as he wakes up!"

The cat-faced Root Ninja quickly bowed, "Yes, Lord Danzo!"

After Danzo and the cat-faced Root Ninja left one after another and the door closed, Xingxia Xiu, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes.

"It's one thing to travel to the world of Naruto, but I actually became a Root ninja. I have neither a future nor money."

Xing Xiaxiu looked a little unhappy.

This guy Danzo is not only not a promising boss, but also not a good boss.

Being his minion means you will be defeated at any time, sooner or later.

It should still be in time for him to react now. After all, he is the only survivor of the Wood Release experiment, and Sarutobi Hiruzen will not let him go.

but……

Xingxia Xiu lowered his eyes and silently refined his chakra, attempting to change the nature of Wood Release, but failed.

"It seems that I didn't get the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai directly, but my physical strength has been greatly improved, and the amount of chakra is at least ten times that of before."

"But without Wood Release, my value is greatly reduced."

Xingxia Xiu opened his eyes and frowned slightly.

It is currently the 36th year of Konoha, and the Second Shinobi World War has not yet broken out. The relationship between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo, the gay rivals, is definitely not what it will be like decades later.

Danzo's ambitions are not that big now, the Root was established not long ago, and he doesn't even have the Seal to Eradicate the Tongue Evil.

"This is probably the time when Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo are working together most sincerely to gain control of Konoha."

"Defection is not the best option...it's not even a good option."

Xingxia Xiu pondered secretly: "Besides, if I defect and join Sarutobi Hiruzen's army, will I have a chance to become Hokage?"

"I can't win against the Sannin. I can't win against the Sannin. I don't have the Wood Release cheat, I just have more chakra. I definitely can't win against Minato Namikaze who has the Space Secret."

A ninja who doesn't want to become Hokage is not a good ninja.

Since you have come to this world and become a ninja, of course you have to do your job well.

But since the possibility of becoming Hokage is very small, then... "staying in the Root doesn't seem to be an unacceptable option."

Xingxia Xiu secretly analyzed: "The current situation is different from that of Yamato's time. Danzo is now completely Sarutobi Hiruzen's right-hand man. The two of them worked together to control Konoha after the death of Senju Tobirama and suppress the powerful Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan."

"At present, and for a long time to come, Danzo will be the second most powerful person in Konoha."

"Furthermore, after the Root gradually became Danzo's private army, its power became immense, practically the East and West Factories."

Xingxiaxiu smiled.

If I can't become Hokage, being the leader of the Root seems like a good idea too!
But no matter what, in this life, he, Xing Xiaxiu, does not want to be a servant.

He wants to be the boss, but there is no one above him!

First, start by becoming a root leader.

After figuring it out, Xingxiaxiu felt that the road ahead was suddenly clear.

At this moment, his eyes went dark, his perspective suddenly changed, and he saw a status bar above his head.

Current status: Immortal
Refresh countdown: 04:32:32
Looking at this status bar, Xingxia Xiu suddenly realized: "I was able to survive the Wood Release experiment because of this status bar."

"The countdown has been refreshed. In other words, there are less than 5 hours left before the immortal state disappears."

Xing Xiaxiu immediately had an idea.

Continue transplanting interstitial cells.

Maybe he could obtain Wood Release, but even without it, his chakra amount or recovery ability would be greatly improved.

"However, I have now gained some of the power of Hashirama's cells by virtue of my immortality. Even if I lose my immortality, there shouldn't be any problems transplanting Hashirama's cells in the future, right?"

Thinking of Xingxia Xiu, he got up from the bed and pushed open the door.

"you're awake?"

The cat-faced ninja was startled, then said, "Stay in the room, I will report to Lord Danzo immediately!"

Snapped!
Xingxia Xiu slapped the cat-faced ninja in the face, making the latter look confused and almost having his mask knocked off.

"Do you want Lord Danzo to come see me?"

Xingxia Xiu scolded the cat-faced root ninja: "I should be the one to pay my respects to Danzo-sama, idiot, lead the way immediately!"

Under the mask, the cat-faced ninja was stunned.

This bastard actually hit him!

are you crazy?
Rage surged within him, and the ninja's murderous intent erupted from the base of his cat face.

Xing Xiaxiu curled his lips: "What? You dare to kill me?"

The murderous intent of the cat-faced ninja disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The guy in front of me is different from before.

Not to mention killing, even if a hair is cut off, I'm afraid I will be punished by Lord Danzo.

"This bastard is so arrogant!"

The cat-faced ninja endured it, and then led the way silently.

Xing Xiaxiu didn't move his feet: "Hey!"

"Since you've realized your mistake, you should apologize and thank me!"

The cat-faced Root Ninja paused, the urge to take out a kunai and stab the bastard to death returning.

Taking a deep breath and holding it, the cat-faced ninja turned and bowed to Xingxia Xiu: "I'm so sorry!"

“Thanks for the correction!”

Xingxia Xiu nodded in satisfaction, stepped forward, smiled and patted the cat-faced ninja's shoulder: "That's right, Nakamura-kun!"

"Correct your mistakes if you know them. Only in this way can you make progress, make better contributions to the Root, and become a powerful force in Danzo-sama's hands."

Nakamura: Shouldn't you call me by my code name?

But he didn't dare say it out loud for fear of being beaten.
