Ninja World: I'm really a support-type ninja

The Root ninjas accepted the order and left, while Shimura Danzo sat on a chair in the command tent, resting his chin on his hand, seemingly lost in thought.

"Lord Danzo, the person has been brought here."

Soon, the Root ninja returned, followed by Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara.

However, when the two saw Shimura Danzo for the first time, they did not bow or ask questions, but instead took a step back in unison.

"What's wrong? Are you afraid of this old man?"

A glint of surprise flashed in Shimura Danzo's single eye, causing Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara to tremble once again.

"No...no..."

After a few seconds of silence, Obito Uchiha mustered his courage and stepped forward, blocking Rin Nohara's view, to answer Danzo Shimura's question.

The main reason was that Shimura Danzo's eyes and aura were too terrifying, and in order to test what was special about the two of them, Shimura Danzo simply did not conceal himself.

This caused Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara, who had never seen such a big scene, to be completely stunned and lose their composure to some extent.

"In that case, why isn't the girl behind you saying anything?!"

"Lord Danzo, I...I..." Nohara Rin peeked out from behind Uchiha Obito, "I was just a little nervous, and I am deeply sorry for my rudeness just now."

"Alright, no need to apologize." Shimura Danzo gave a smile that looked more like a grimace. "How could I be so harsh on you? Besides, I didn't tone down my aura just now, so I guess I also have my faults."

At this moment, Shimura Danzo, whether speaking, acting, or making expressions, resembled a harmless, old neighbor.

Aside from his rather fierce appearance, there's nothing about him that's off-putting.

Soon, Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara returned to normal. After bowing and greeting Danzo Shimura, they stood respectfully to the side to await further instructions.

"Obito Uchiha, I've seen your resume. Although it's ordinary, you're a ninja with great potential."

"Really? Lord Danzo!"

Upon hearing Danzo Shimura's praise, Obito Uchiha was overjoyed and looked up with a beaming expression, asking the question.

"Hmm, she's a very good ninja." Danzo Shimura replied dismissively, then looked at Rin Nohara. "Rin Nohara, are you a medical ninja?"

"Yes, Lord Danzo." Nohara Rin answered nervously, stammering.

"Hmm, very good. You and Obito Uchiha are also very good friends, right?"

"Yes, Rin and I are best friends!" Obito Uchiha answered loudly, and between his answers, he didn't forget to turn his head to look at Rin Nohara.

“Yes, Obito and I are indeed very, very, very good friends!” Nohara Rin replied.

"In that case, I do have an important task that would be very suitable for you. I wonder if you think you are capable of handling it?"

"This...I..."

"We can, Lord Danzo!"

Just as Nohara Rin hesitated, Uchiha Obito raised his arm and shouted, looking excited and impatient.

Standing next to Obito Uchiha, Rin Nohara glanced cautiously at Danzo Shimura, then looked worried and kept staring at the extremely excited Obito Uchiha.

She could understand Obito Uchiha's eagerness and excitement; after all, Obito Uchiha was extremely eager to prove himself.

Especially after his classmates, the two Hatake brothers, applied for early graduation, Obito Uchiha worked even harder.

Moreover, since the outbreak of the Third Shinobi World War, the title of "Konoha Twins" has spread throughout Konoha, which has further fueled Obito Uchiha's competitive spirit.

His contemporary, and even someone who was once considered the worst student alongside him, Akira Hatake, has now far surpassed him in both strength and reputation, which makes Obito Uchiha desperately want to find an opportunity to prove himself.

Now that the opportunity has come, Obito Uchiha naturally has no reason to refuse.

However, based on her woman's sixth sense, Nohara Rin always felt that Shimura Danzo had ill intentions, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Helpless, Nohara Rin could only secretly tug at Uchiha Obito's sleeve.

"Lin, don't be afraid, I'm here for you."

Obito Uchiha thought that Rin Nohara was worried about his safety, so he quickly patted her small hand to comfort her.

Sitting in the chair, Shimura Danzo glanced at Nohara Rin with considerable surprise.

That's all...

"Alright, you don't need to worry about your safety. You're just assisting in this mission." Shimura Danzo pointed to a Root ninja standing next to the two of them. "His name is Aburame Ryoma. He's your captain for this mission. Just follow his instructions."

"Alright, now that we've met, I believe you can accomplish this task very well."

With that, Danzo Shimura tossed each of the three a sealing scroll, saying, "This is important intelligence that you need to escort during this mission. I need you to deliver it to Tsunade personally."

"What the hell! We were just transferred here from Lady Tsunade..."

Obito Uchiha was displeased upon hearing this. He had thought it was some important mission, but it turned out to be just another escort mission.

Moreover, Obito Uchiha felt that this task was unnecessary.

"That's why we chose to include you in this mission," Danzo Shimura said calmly. "You are very familiar with the route to Tsunade's unit, so we'll have to trouble you to be Ryoma's guides this time."

"I...I understand..."

Although Obito Uchiha was still very unwilling, he eventually accepted the mission.

"The situation is urgent. You should rest for a bit and then set off as soon as possible."

"Yes, Lord Danzo!" Aburame Ryoma replied, leading Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin out of the tent.

After the three left, White Zetsu emerged from the ground, squinting at Shimura Danzo.

"Danzo, you really aren't afraid of offending the Uchiha clan! Heh..."

"Hmph, you don't need to bother with that." Shimura Danzo's tone was unfriendly. "As agreed, shouldn't you tell me that information?"

"Of course, I am very trustworthy."

Bai Jue casually tossed out a sealing scroll, then immediately fled without leaving a single word.

This made Shimura Danzo, who wanted to make another move, grit his teeth and miss another opportunity.

He bent down to pick up the sealed scroll from the ground, and after breaking the seal, he revealed a piece of intelligence inside. It contained detailed information about the members of the Iwagakure Earthquake Nuclear Team, their numbers, their route of advance, and the date of their planned attack.

The level of detail in the intelligence left Danzo Shimura in awe.

"Hiruzen... I won this round!"

Chapter 156 Different people, different tasks, different fates.

"Brother, may I come in?"

Kakashi, fully prepared, stood outside Akira Hatake's tent and cautiously inquired.

"come in……"

Akira Hatake's voice sounded somewhat tired, which startled Kakashi.

Kakashi lifted the curtain and rushed in, immediately seeing Akira Hatake's bloodshot, bright red eyes.

"What's wrong, brother?" Kakashi asked, his voice filled with concern. "Have you not rested for a whole day and night?"

"No." Akira stretched. "Are you getting ready to leave?"

"Yes." Kakashi nodded. "I came here specifically to say goodbye to my brother before I left."

"You have a heart."

Akira Hatake smiled slightly at Kakashi, noticing the worry on Kakashi's face, and then offered an explanation.

"Kakashi, don't worry about me, I'm fine. I was just researching a new ninjutsu and lost track of time."

"Then you need to take care of your health too, brother." Kakashi walked over to Akira Hatake and sat down, noticing the papers covering the entire table.

"Is my brother researching the Flying Thunder God Technique?"

Kakashi naturally recognized the Flying Thunder God Technique seal, but the Flying Thunder God Technique seal drawn on the paper was very different from what Kakashi remembered.

It's as if a whole thing has been forcibly cut in half, which looks rather eerie.

"Yes, I got some inspiration yesterday when I was receiving the reinforcements."

Akira Hatake explained with a smile, "Inspiration comes suddenly, and it disappears just as quickly, so..."

“That’s true.” Kakashi understood this feeling; he had experienced similar inspirations to what Akira Hatake had described several times before.

In order to seize the opportunity for a breakthrough, Kakashi often stayed up late, and sometimes even dragged Akira Hatake along to be his free sparring partner.

"Brother, is there anything I can help you with?" Kakashi's eyes sparkled, his expression showing a hint of anticipation.

I still remember when we were developing the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, Kakashi once revealed the secret in a single sentence, which really helped Akira Hatake a lot.

This time, Kakashi naturally hoped for the same thing, since he was a little too obsessed with helping Akira Hatake.

"This...you really can't help."

Akira Hatake didn't want to dampen Kakashi's enthusiasm, but the Flying Thunder God derivative ninjutsu that Akira was researching was very dangerous, and it also involved a field that was outside Kakashi's knowledge. So Akira had no choice but to tell the truth.

"Oh." Kakashi was a little disappointed, but he quickly recovered. "I can see that this ninjutsu is very important to you, brother, but you still need to take better care of your health."

"Don't worry, Kakashi, I know what I'm doing."

"In that case, I'll go carry out the mission."

After saying that, Kakashi stood up, glanced at Akira Hatake with some reluctance, and then turned to leave.

"Kakashi, wait a minute."

Kakashi had only taken two steps when he heard Akira Hatake's voice behind him.

"What's wrong, brother?" Kakashi turned around.

"Take this, and wear this too."

Akira Hatake handed Kakashi two items: a gorgeous vessel shaped like a cup and a short-sleeved shirt with intricate gold trim.

These were two pieces of equipment that Akira Hatake had prepared for Kakashi in advance: the Holy Grail and the Resurrection Armor.

"this is……"

Kakashi didn't take it immediately, but pointed to the Resurrection Armor, clearly recognizing it. "This is the artifact that my brother gave to Father to save his life?"

“Yes, that’s it.” Akira Hatake nodded.

"I can't accept it!"
