Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 206 Lord Danzo, I only want to take care of you in your old age and see you off in your final days!

That bastard!

Danzo Shimura felt a surge of anger rising within him!

The old man had always believed that he was framed by Hiruzen Sarutobi when he was forced to defect from Konoha, but he never expected that it was that bastard Kagura Akihara who did it!

"It's you..."

Danzo Shimura could no longer regain his composure and rationality, staring at Kagura Akihara with a gloomy expression: "I became a rogue ninja because of you..."

"yes."

Akihara Kagura nodded, not denying what she had done, and sighed, "It was actually quite troublesome to get this done. In order to let Lord Danzo leave Konoha and enjoy a peaceful life outside, I mobilized quite a few people..."

"Not only do we have to find a way to frame you in front of the Hokage, but we also have to frame him in front of you. The most troublesome thing is to avoid arousing suspicion from others..."

"asshole…"

Danzo Shimura's forehead veins were bulging with anger!

"Don't be angry."

Kagura Akihara quickly tried to persuade the nearly seventy-year-old man, fearing he might die of anger on the spot: "I'm only thinking of Lord Danzo..."

Shimura Danzo glared at Akihara Kagura through gritted teeth, so hateful he wanted to bite her to death on the spot: "You framed me and forced me to defect, all for my own good?"

"But…"

Akihara Kagura pointed to a group of Uchiha and continued, "When these people were driven to the brink, they didn't even have a chance to defect..."

"The Uchiha clan has always been a source of unrest in the village..."

Danzo Shimura's eyes narrowed slightly, making no attempt to hide his hatred for the Uchiha: "They wanted to stage a coup in Konoha and rebel; they should have been dealt with in the first place..."

"It was you high-ups who forced me into this!"

An elderly Uchiha man stepped forward. He was very old and had experienced much: "We betrayed Lord Madara and chose to stay in Konoha, but we never expected that the Konoha leadership would try every means to eliminate the Uchiha..."

"The Uchiha clan is inherently evil..."

Danzo Shimura started with his old excuses.

"well enough?"

Akihara Kagura glanced at the group of Uchiha, seemingly curious about Shimura Danzo's explanation: "They've been quite obedient in Root these past few years. They've done whatever we asked them to do, and even when we asked them to frame you, none of them had any objections..."

Not only did they have no objections, they were even very enthusiastic.

The Uchiha clan had long harbored deep hatred for the Konoha leadership, especially after learning from Shisui that Shimura Danzo and Uchiha Itachi had murdered the entire Uchiha clan!

but…

It's true that these Uchiha are obedient.

Perhaps it was because of Shisui's guidance, perhaps because they recognized Akihara Kagura's Sharingan, perhaps because they had long been homeless and had nowhere else to go, or perhaps because there was no hope anywhere else and this was the only place they could stay, these Uchiha did not cause any trouble.

Ignoring the old Uchiha, Shimura Danzo looked at Akihara Kagura with disdain: "The Uchiha clan is inherently evil. Sooner or later, they will produce a dangerous figure like Uchiha Madara. Kagura, one day you will regret this..."

"Now I am the leader of the Root."

Akihara Kagura opened his palms, a strange smile playing on his lips, and a striking crimson glint appeared in his eyes: "Lord Danzo, is it possible that I am a dangerous figure like Uchiha Madara...?"

"Akihara Kagura!"

Shimura Danzo stared at Akihara Kagura in disbelief!

All along…

Akihara Kagura has never revealed his Sharingan!

this moment…

The old man realized something even more terrifying!

Akihara Kagura has never revealed his Sharingan. This guy also has Uchiha genes. He's hiding more than he imagined!

What terrified Shimura Danzo even more was that what Akihara Kagura said was true, because he really was a dangerous person like Uchiha Madara, or even more dangerous than Uchiha Madara. Akihara Kagura not only had the Sharingan bloodline limit, but also the power of the First Hokage!

The most terrifying...

It's still Akihara Kagura's scheming!

How on earth is this guy refusing to use his Sharingan?!

"This is truly...something I never expected..."

Danzo Shimura's fingers slowly curled into his palm, his gaze fixed on Kagura Akihara's crimson eyes: "I never even realized you had Uchiha blood in you... Orochimaru didn't find out either, did he?"

"certainly."

Akihara Kagura nodded, then chuckled and shook her head, saying, "However, Lord Danzo, I actually used my Sharingan in front of you."

"..."

Danzo Shimura frowned and began to think.

When...

How could I not have noticed? That's impossible! I'm very sensitive to the Sharingan; there's no way I wouldn't have noticed!

"When?"

Danzo Shimura frowned, unable to recall anything: "Could it be that when you used your Sharingan, you cast a genjutsu on me...?"

"yes…"

Akihara Kagura nodded, her eyes gradually transforming into a pair of strange Mangekyou Sharingan. She chuckled and asked, "If nothing unexpected happens, that must have been the most terrifying genjutsu Danzo ever experienced in his life, right? I wonder if Danzo still remembers it?"

"That time...it was you!"

As Shimura Danzo looked at Akihara Kagura, he suddenly remembered!

At that time, he had just laid an ambush and used Izanagi to steal one of Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan, but then he fell into an extremely terrifying genjutsu and lost that eye in that genjutsu world!

At that time...

Shimura Danzo thought it was Uchiha Obito...

I never imagined that it was Akihara Kagura who made the move back then!

"You're living comfortably in that illusionary world, aren't you?"

Akihara Kagura opened her palms and asked with a smile, "I meticulously prepared and built this illusionary world for you..."

"asshole…"

Shimura Danzo, recalling his life of being constantly tricked in the genjutsu world, wished he could immediately devour Akihara Kagura raw: "Just how many things have you been hiding from me? I was the one who brought you into Konoha in the first place..."

"Then the first thing they did was erase my name."

A mocking smile played on Akihara Kagura's lips, completely unconcerned about Shimura Danzo's anger: "You just wanted to use me as a tool. From the very first day you brought me into Konoha, I had already planned how to leave Root..."

"That's why when you were teaching me Wood Release, I immediately released a Tree World Advent that could alarm the Third Hokage and attract his attention, because I knew the Third Hokage would never allow a power to escape his control..."

"you!"

Shimura Danzo's angry eyes were bloodshot!

"Everything is just as I expected. I was transferred to the Anbu by the Third Hokage, thus escaping your control, but I am not yet out of danger from you..."

Looking into Shimura Danzo's bloodshot eyes, Akihara Kagura continued, "In order to escape your control, I simultaneously demonstrated my value to the Third Hokage while instigating conflict between you and the Third Hokage..."

"Because you all want to use me as a weapon..."

"However, people are always greedy. It's enough to keep a powerful weapon in your own hands; you can't let others use it. So it's only natural that the Third Hokage would try his best to free me from your control..."

Kagura Akihara looked at Danzo Shimura and continued, "As long as I show even the slightest sign that you still have hope of controlling me, the Third Hokage will never let you get close to me, preventing this weapon that belongs solely to him from being tainted by you..."

"For example, I like to show off in front of Kakashi Hatake that I'm going to hand over the Third Tsuchikage and the Fourth Mizukage to you, but then I let Kakashi Hatake go to the Hokage Building to report first..."

"But Kakashi Hatake and the Third Hokage simply don't understand that I always deliberately avoid routes that Root might be able to track down, so that the Third Hokage always receives the intelligence first and arrives at the right time to meet with the Kage of the other ninja villages..."

"The Third Hokage will never understand that I will never be tainted or controlled by you; he just needs to believe that I will be corrupted by you..."

"..."

At this point, Shimura Danzo roughly understood why, for a period of time, Sarutobi Hiruzen had forbidden him from contacting Akihara Kagura…

At that time...

Hiruzen Sarutobi really didn't want to control Akihara Kagura anymore, and even assigned himself the task of monitoring the Uchiha clan, asking him to temporarily let Akihara Kagura go!

The origin of all this…

It was all that bastard Akihara Kagura's doing that caused all this trouble!

"Everything went smoothly after that."

Kagura Akihara smiled at Danzo and continued, "In order to make the Third Hokage believe that my strength is important to Konoha, I revealed Obito Uchiha's identity and personally captured the Fourth Mizukage and the Third Tsuchikage. This made the Hokage understand one thing: my power is very strong and I absolutely cannot be sacrificed easily. Killing me would be very troublesome..."

"exactly…"

"The threat posed by the Uchiha clan is growing..."

"In order to have more power to suppress the Uchiha, the Third Hokage will continuously increase my power, choosing to drink poison to quench thirst... Of course, I also acted like I wasn't poison, always appearing dangerous yet safe."

"My dangers are all with my enemies."

"My safety depends on my friends."

"I made the Third Hokage understand that I am the guarantee of peace and security in Konoha, and my appearance allowed the Konoha leadership to resolve the crisis of the Uchiha coup with ease."

"But what the monkey doesn't know is that you are the biggest crisis..."

Danzo Shimura narrowed his eyes, looking at the group of surviving Uchiha, and said in a deep voice, "I am very curious, what methods did you use to save them on the night of the massacre, and make everyone believe they were all dead..."

"Uchiha Itachi".

When Akihara Kagura mentioned this name, all the Uchiha present were visibly angry. They hated that traitor from their own clan even more than they hated the Konoha leadership!

"Itachi Uchiha controlled the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, who had left Konoha."

Akihara Kagura made no secret of her past schemes: "Uchiha Itachi would never understand that the reason he was able to obtain the Three-Tails was because of the information I delivered..."

"I guessed that when Itachi Uchiha wanted to kill his clansmen, he didn't have enough time to search, so he would definitely use the Tailed Beast Ball to clean up the Uchiha clan territory. This would conveniently cover my rescue of these survivors and make people think that they all perished under the Tailed Beast Ball..."

"certainly."

"It doesn't matter even if Itachi Uchiha didn't control the Three-Tails to release the Tailed Beast Ball at the time."

Kagura Akihara, who always had a backup plan for herself, continued slowly, "I will use the True Thousand Hands to destroy the Uchiha clan's territory and completely cover up their disappearance..."

"just."

"That night, you also lost your power."

As Akihara Kagura said this, there seemed to be a hint of regret in her eyes as she looked at Shimura Danzo: "The news that came from Kirigakure gave me an opportunity. I finally had a chance to frame you and, incidentally, kick out those Root ninjas who were loyal to you..."

"So you let me take those people away..."

Shimura Danzo stared intently at Akihara Kagura; he had been tricked at that moment!

While they gained a lot of manpower at that time, they lost the opportunity to completely monitor Akihara Kagura, and allowed the surviving Uchiha to complete the reshuffling and completely take over Root!

"yes…"

"They are too loyal to you."

"Since you're short-handed, I'll just give you all of them."

Akihara Kagura did not deny it, and continued, "Even if you don't want it, I will find a way to pack it up and send it to the Anbu, so that they won't interfere with my plans."

"As a result, you fell for the trap."

Akihara Kagura smiled, seemingly quite satisfied with Shikimura Danzo's performance at the time: "He even took away the two spies I planted by your side..."

"Um?"

Shimura Danzo's eyes flashed as he looked at Aburame Torune and Yamanaka Fu beside him: "Torune, Fu, you two..."

"They are my personal guards..."

Akihara Kagura spread her hands, gesturing for Aburame Torune and Yamanaka Fu to come to her side: "What do you mean by 'royal guards'? I specifically reminded Lord Danzo of that, so Lord Danzo should understand perfectly well, right?"

"Lord Kagura".

Aburame Torune immediately stood behind Akihara Kagura.

"Lord Kagura".

Yamanaka Kaze followed Aburame Torune.

Akihara Kagura looked at the two returning spies, then at the lone Shimura Danzo: "You two deserve much credit for Lord Danzo becoming a rogue ninja."

"You... how dare you betray me!"

"They have never been loyal to you."

Akihara Kagura chuckled and continued, "Back when you were still in the Land of Rain, when I sent people to impersonate the Third Hokage's subordinates to purge your forces, I specifically spared these two, hoping they would influence you..."

"I see..."

Danzo Shimura, perhaps driven to the brink of despair, his eyes filled with a deathly stillness: "All these years, it must have been quite an ordeal for you to have secretly controlled my life..."

"Not long."

Akihara Kagura didn't seem particularly proud. After counting off a few points, she said, "I'm only seventeen this year, while Lord Danzo is almost seventy. The first time I saw you, I already knew how I would take care of you in your old age and see you off in your final days..."
