A huge fireball flew towards Shisui head on.

Bang!

Shisui, who was burned by the fireball, turned into a piece of wood.

Itachi's pupils shrank, and his fingertips hooked the kunai in the ninja tool bag, and subconsciously blocked it behind him.

Itachi blocked Shisui's short sword, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in Shisui's eyes.

Itachi's reaction speed is so fast!

Itachi kicked the cross section of Shisui's short blade, and his figure retreated, putting a certain distance between him and Shisui.

"Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!"

The scattered flames were like the petals of a marigold, bouncing towards Shisui continuously.

Shisui avoided the flames in front of him, and his figure quickly passed through the endless flames in front of him and headed towards Itachi.

"not enough."

Shisui's voice rang out in front of Itachi.

In the blink of an eye, Shisui's figure seemed to tear through space and arrived in front of Itachi. The short knife in his hand cut through countless scorching air waves along the way, and the hot blade looked towards Itachi.

Itachi held the kunai in both hands and blocked Shisui's short blade.

Sudden.

Shisui's pupils moved slightly.

Itachi's water clone burst out from the waterfall: "Fire Style: Phoenix Claw Red!"

Flames attached to the flying shurikens attacked Shisui's back from all directions.

The shuriken was mixed with scorching heat, like balsam flowers scattered all over the sky, beautiful but extremely dangerous.

Countless Shisui appeared in front of Itachi, and the shurikens were easily intercepted.

Itachi let go of the hand that was holding Shisui's short sword, he knew he had lost.

"As expected of Shisui!"

Although he lost, there was not much loss in Itachi's eyes.

He knew that Shisui was just that powerful.

Shisui put the short sword back into the scabbard behind him.

Itachi also unleashed the clone jutsu.

Shisui handed Itachi a handkerchief and sat down on the edge of the cliff.

The wind blew his hair, bringing a hint of freshness.

Uchiha Itachi sat beside him, his eyes moving over Shisui's body.

He didn't know if it was Itachi's illusion, but he felt that Shisui seemed very tired.

Itachi pursed his lips and asked, "Is Shisui tired?"

Shisui didn't say anything. He smiled and shook his head at Itachi, but there was a bitter look between his eyebrows.

After learning that Shisui had joined the Anbu and become captain, the clan elders met with him alone and asked him to monitor the actions of the Konoha high-level officials.

Every time he dealt with the elders, Shisui felt exhausted both physically and mentally.

But he couldn't tell this to Itachi.

Even though Itachi is a genius, he is still a real child.

Itachi couldn't know these things.

Itachi looked at Shisui and knew full well that Shisui was lying.

Shisui was clearly very tired.

“I want to graduate.”

Itachi said.

Shisui was stunned.

Itachi continued, "I don't want to stay in the ninja school anymore."

Shisui couldn't directly deny Itachi's decision, so he reminded him: "Itachi, you are only six years old..."

Itachi stared at Shisui intently and corrected him, "I'm seven years old."

Shisui was stunned, he had been so busy recently that he had forgotten that Itachi's birthday had passed.

"I saw the Uchiha clan clashing with the villagers a few days ago."

Itachi suddenly said.

That was when he was on his way back to his clan home after school, and an Uchiha almost got into a fight with the people.

The reason was that the commoner said that it was the Uchiha who caused the Nine-Tails to be released. After the Uchiha who was passing by heard it, he clashed with the commoner.

Later, Konoha's guards came to resolve the matter, but unexpectedly, the conflict escalated.

Although the top management laid off many Uchiha clan members in the guard team, the Uchiha clan still accounted for half of the guard team.

After learning the cause of the conflict, the Uchiha in the guard team was angry but still rational. They did not expect that the citizen would continue to provoke and become more and more excessive. The Uchiha could no longer bear it and punched him, successfully escalating the conflict.

There are rumors in the village now that the Uchiha clan is bullying others by abusing their power.

"It's okay, this matter will be handled."

Shisui also knew about this, and he patted Itachi's head: "Don't worry."

Speaking of which, this matter also gave Shisui a headache.

Thinking of that commoner, Shisui's eyes became filled with thoughts.

He felt that this was no ordinary dispute.

It's more like a trap set against the Uchiha clan.

Deliberately exacerbating the conflict between the Uchiha clan and the village.

Itachi stared straight ahead, watching the sun setting in the distance.

He didn't want to wait any longer, he wanted to leave the ninja school and share Shisui's pressure.

He could clearly see the undercurrents within the Uchiha clan, and it wasn't as easy as Shisui said.

Chapter 198 Are you willing to join the Root?

A hundred feet underground.

The Root ninja dragged an expressionless boy through three long corridors.

The boy's eyes were dark and without any emotion, like a controlled robot.

The door opened and the figure of Lord Danzo appeared before the Root ninja.

The Root ninja took a breath, pulled the boy to one knee, and bowed his head in front of Lord Danzo.

Danzo's eyes passed calmly from the subordinate in front of him and the boy held by his subordinate's hand. The chill in his voice penetrated the bone marrow: "What is it?"

The Root ninja's breathing quickened, a frenzy coming from beneath his mask.

"Lord Danzo!"

"He! He awakened Wood Release!"

The Root Ninja's voice trembled as he tried his best to speak out his words.

The crutch hit the ground with a dull thud.

The sound beat against the heart of the Root Ninja.

The robes of Danzo-sama appeared in front of the Root ninja.

The Root ninja slowly looked up, and the lights lit up behind Lord Danzo.

Danzo-sama's face could not be seen clearly in the shadows, and a voice came from the shadows:

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"I dare not lie!"

The Root Ninja immediately shook the boy's shoulder and said threateningly, "Show your Wood Release to Danzo-sama!"

Danzo's unbandaged eyes gleamed in the dim light.

He stared at the boy in front of him.

Until the boy stretched out his hand and a piece of wood appeared in his palm.

Danzo stared at the piece of wood, unable to look away.

Danzo didn't expect that although Orochimaru defected, he left behind such a precious legacy.

I'm afraid even Orochimaru himself didn't expect that among that batch of seemingly useless experimental subjects, there would be one that would be successful!

Danzo stretched out his hand, which was like a dry branch, towards the boy.

The boy stared blankly at Danzo's outstretched hand, without moving.

Danzo pulled him up from the ground, a slight smile on his lips as he asked, "What's your name?"

The boy shook his head.

"no name?"

Danzo guessed.

The young man nodded.

There was a dark light in Danzo's eyes: "Since you don't have a name, then I will give you a name! From now on, you will be called Tenzo."

The boy repeated, "Tian Zang?"

Danzo nodded, "Yes, Tenzo."

Danzo gave a look to the Root ninja who was half-kneeling on the ground.

The Root ninja immediately stood up and took Tenzo away.

Danzo returned to his chair and sat down, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath.

Great.

A dark shadow appeared in the room again.

Danzo opened his eyes, but there was no surprise in them.

He stared at the subordinate he had sent out to contact Orochimaru.

"Reporting to Lord Danzo, I have completed my mission."

The Root Ninja half-knelt on the ground, presented the scroll with both hands, and said, "This is Orochimaru's reply to you."

Danzo held out his hand, and the Root ninja placed the scroll in Danzo's hand.

Danzo opened the scroll and saw Orochimaru's handwriting on it. Orochimaru's reply was simple, expressing his willingness to continue cooperating with him.

The image of Orochimaru appeared in his mind. Danzo sneered and looked at his subordinates who had just returned from their mission. He continued to order: "Go and take a piece of Tenzo's flesh and send it to Orochimaru. Tell Orochimaru that this is an experimental subject who has successfully awakened Wood Release."

The Root Ninja nodded immediately, "Yes."

The Root ninja disappeared from the room.

Danzo narrowed his eyes. The cells of the first Hokage were too powerful, and Tenzo's cells were just right for him.

However, even if he had Tenzo's cells, he would not let go of Amamiya Zero's cells.

With the Wood Release cells, the only thing missing is one more thing...

Danzo stood up and left the room.
