Naruto: I, who fooled the ninja world, was hailed as a savior.

Chapter 35 must be Danzo trying to sabotage the negotiations!

In the rain, a visible bubble rapidly expands, its surface covered with a rough, needle-like mist of water.

The eyes of the Konoha and Kumogakure members reflected the blinding flames, like a fountain of fire and light gushing forth.

Just before the flames erupted and engulfed the people of Konoha, Akimichi Tou turned around, turning his broad body away from the impact of the explosion.

"The art of doubling!"

Akimichi Tou, amidst the explosions, let out a resolute roar.

At the same time, two other voices suddenly rang out.

"Psychic art!"

"Back to the days!"

boom! !

It was like a small sun suddenly exploding in front of everyone; the light and roar at close range blinded and deafened everyone.

In the silence, a torrent of heat rushed toward them, and the impact of the explosion shattered all the glass in an instant.

Broken wood and stones flew in all directions, accompanied by a constant shriek. If a person stood in front of them, they would be easily pierced through as if through paper.

However, the Konoha members were instantly thrown into the air, as if they had been hit head-on by a giant elephant running at high speed, and tumbled backward in mid-air.

He was thrown out of the hotel and crashed into various places.

Kaka! Click!
Their bodies emitted a sharp, teeth-grinding cracking sound as the bones snapped. The Konoha members were overcome with intense pain, collapsing to the ground in agony, feeling only tinnitus and dizziness.

The explosion happened suddenly and quickly. About ten seconds later, the black smoke slowly settled, and the shock gradually subsided.

"puff!"

Ryoma Aburame, who had been smashed to the ground, coughed up blood and clutched his chest, feeling as if his internal organs had shifted.

After a while, my vision, which had gone from black to white, began to recover somewhat. The image gradually appeared from the countless specks of snowflakes. The first color I saw was orange, the light of fire, the afterglow of flames that filled my vision.

The sharp ringing in my ears began to return, and I heard the crackling of burning and groans.

"Cough cough! What exactly is going on?"

Thick black smoke filled his nostrils, and with a cough, Aburame Ryoma struggled to his feet, looking towards the collapsed hotel in the distance, where he saw the charred corpse of the giant insect.

That was his summoned beast.

If he hadn't remained vigilant and reacted in time, instinctively using his psychic abilities, he would likely be crippled or dead at the same close distance.

Moreover, there were two people even closer to him.

Kaka!

A black arm reached out from the ruins, then suddenly lifted up a large number of bricks and crawled out from under the rubble.

It is Akimichi-do Higashi, which is closest to the explosion site.

Having used the Expansion Technique, he withstood the strongest impact and blocked the power of the explosion.

If he hadn't been in front, the others wouldn't have just been thrown into the air, but would have faced the full force of the explosion.

Bang!
His crawling out of the rubble seemed to have exhausted his remaining strength; his gradually shrinking body collapsed forward to the ground, the skin on his back covered with charred and swollen burns.

However, being a member of the Akimichi clan known for their physical techniques, they did not die immediately from the explosion, even though they were at close range. They were only seriously injured and fell into a coma due to the impact on their internal organs and brain.

In contrast, the Cloud Village members standing inside the inn were not as lucky.

Black smoke and white mist filled the hotel like a curtain, and the heat wave distorted the air, obscuring the vision of all the Konoha ninjas.

But soon, a figure was seen flying out of the thick black smoke, crashing next to Aburame Ryoma with a painful groan.

Upon seeing the face of the person beside him, Aburame Ryoma's eyes widened in shock.

"Hyuga Kumikawa?!"

How is that possible? This guy was so close, how could he still survive?
He was merely covered in dust and blood, with cracks in his exposed skin, suggesting that many capillaries had been ruptured, but there were no signs of severe burns.

There was a bloody gash across his chest, tearing through his clothes; it didn't look like a cut from gravel but rather from a sharp object. "You..."

Seeing Hyuga Kumokawa, who was in pain and unable to get up for a long time, Aburame Ryoma suddenly remembered the low shout that came when the explosion rang out.

The technique "Return to Heaven" releases a large amount of chakra from the body's chakra points the instant it is attacked, and then spins in a circular motion like a top, which can deflect all physical attacks.

Hyuga Kumokawa, an unimportant member of the branch family, actually learned a secret technique passed down by the main Hyuga clan.
"Cough cough!"

Two gruesome gashes marred Hyuga Kumokawa's face. Suddenly, he grabbed Aburame Ryoma's arm and said hoarsely, "Ryoma-senpai, quickly take Doto-senpai away! That guy from Kumogakure hasn't..."

Before he could finish speaking, a hoarse, ferocious, and terrifying roar entered his ears, interrupting him.

"Damn you! I'm going to kill you all!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark figure followed closely behind, bursting out instantly through the thick smoke.

The shadowy figure was completely unrecognizable from its appearance; it looked like a charred corpse, still emitting black smoke and even emitting a meaty aroma.

But he is still alive, even though he is living in immense pain, suffering severe burns all over his body, and in so much pain that he is almost driven mad.

The reason was that the iron filings that were dripping down his body blocked most of the impact but failed to prevent the burns.

"Wait! Wait a minute!"

Aburame Ryoma instantly realized something was wrong. He was still unable to move due to his internal injuries, so he quickly shouted, "Calm down! We didn't do it, but we were affected too. Someone is deliberately provoking us!"

Upon hearing this, Troy, who had been about to attack in anger, paused for a moment, his gaze sweeping over the Konoha members who had also lost their fighting ability.

But just a second before he could calm down, eight dark figures suddenly appeared from all around him.

They were Root ninjas who had followed Aburame Ryoma and were hiding in the shadows.

"Don't do it!"

Seeing Troy grip his shuriken tightly, Aburame Ryoma immediately roared.

Two of them immediately went to treat the unconscious Akimichi Tou, while three others stood tense on either side of Troy, on guard against him.

However, three other figures arrived in front of Aburame Ryoma and, without hesitation, simultaneously threw out their kunai.

"you……"

This scene instantly startled Ryoma Aburame, who widened his eyes in fear, never expecting that the Root ninja would disregard his orders.

The still-conscious ANBU ninja beside him looked at Aburame Ryoma with suspicion and instantly realized his true identity.

No wonder, no wonder there was that familiar, chilling aura. Is Aburame Ryoma really a Root ninja?

Realizing this, the Konoha members subconsciously assumed that the phrase "Don't make a move" was actually a code to lower Troy's guard and order the Root ninjas to "make a move."

"Root... no, it's Danzo! Danzo is still up to no good and wants to sabotage the negotiations and start a war between the two countries!" This thought suddenly popped into their minds.

It's no wonder they thought that way; as ninjas of the Anbu, they were all too familiar with the misdeeds and personality of that Ninja Darkness.

However, Ryoma Aburame himself knew perfectly well that he had not given any signal to make a move!
Beside him, Hinata Kumokawa's head was bowed, the shadow cast by the firelight on his face, and a smile that went unnoticed appeared on his lips.

"Shameless Konoha ninja! You were definitely up to no good!"

Seeing the Konoha ninja throwing kunai at him, Troy's last remaining hesitation vanished, replaced by overwhelming rage that finally made him act.

hum!hum!
The moment he finished speaking, Troy hurled three enormous shuriken from his hand, which suddenly made several buzzing sounds!
The blades, gleaming with a cold light, were so sharp they tore through the rain-soaked night. Two of the giant shuriken not only blocked the kunai but also instantly sliced ​​the three Root ninjas in half at the waist.

And the last giant shuriken...

The two Root ninjas who were supporting Akimichi Tou felt a chill run down their spines. Out of the corner of their eyes, they saw several shuriken flying towards them from behind. Their hearts were enveloped by a chilling aura, and their bodies stiffened.

But the next moment, a figure appeared in front of them.

Eight Gates Formation - Second Gate - Rest Gate.

open!
