NovelEnglishChapter 689: In the Blink of an Eye
Somewhere in the Land of Hot Springs.
A middle-aged man with black hair and a distinct cross-shaped scar on his chin sat inside a small dark cave, absent-mindedly chewing on hard meat, and thinking about something. This middle-aged is none other than Shimura Danzo who has hiding in this cave in order to rest for a while.
After the rumors about him started to circulate throughout the Shinobi World, he has been pursued and attacked countless times… His current situation is no different from a stray dog, he has nowhere to go.
However, he wasn’t concerned about this at all… what he is more worried about is, “I don’t understand… why is Amatsukami completely silent? They ought to have made some kind of movement after hearing all those rumors about me… but I haven’t seen or heard anything about Amatsukami since that day at the volcano…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis question has been haunting him… making him feel more and more puzzled.
Initially, Danzo thought that female Homusubi of the Amatsukami must have the same intentions as him, she must also be eager to absorb the visual prowess of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan so that her Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan can evolve to a higher level of Dojutsu, as such, he was quite confident that rumors about the problem in his soul and about his weakness will draw out Homusubi!
But he has been waiting for weeks for her to appear, thinking that she will definitely come… However, it turns out that Amatsukami made no movement, heck Homusubi didn’t even appear in the Shinobi World for the past few months… it’s as if Danzo’s guess was completely off the point… it’s as if she isn’t interested in his pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan at all!
You must know that the effect of the rumors is so good that even small shinobi villages such as Kusagakure, and Takigakure, as well as some small mercenary organizations, are also to kill him, yet Amatsukami has shown no interest at all… This lack of movement couldn’t help but make Danzo more suspicious and inexplicably doubtful, “Is it possible that Homusubi still doesn’t believe in the rumors, and is doubtful about this whole problem in the soul? But Homusubi was present there during the ritual, she should have noticed something… so, she should definitely believe in the rumors… right? Or maybe not? But if that’s the case, then how do I make her believe it? How do I convince her that currently I am weak, and she can kill me easily?”
Kakashi replied, “I see, you are a remnant of the Uzumaki that Danzo used in his ritual… well, in that case, be obedient and come with us…”
Danzo a.k.a ‘Katsuki’ questioned, “How do I know you people won’t kill me?”
Kakashi shrugged, “Regardless of what you know or think, if you are obedient, you won’t be killed, but if not, then we’ll execute you… Believe if you want to, don’t believe if you don’t want to…”
“In that case…” Katsuki muttered, “I’ll be on my own…” and then disappeared from his position in the blink of an eye.
Not so surprised, Kakashi, immediately instructed, “Use plan F…” and then he too disappeared from his position.
At the same time, the other members of Team Ro started to chase after Danzo.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhile Running, Danzo looked back from time to time and noticed that the Konoha Anbu, including Kakashi, were closely following him… and seeing them desperately chase after him, he suddenly had a brilliant idea!
Having been part of the senior management of Konoha, and also serving as the temporary Hokage for a few months, Danzo is aware of the agreement between Konoha and Amatsukami… so he feels that he can use these Anbu members to convince Homusubi. If he were to suffer at the hands of these Anbu, then no doubt, Homusubi should believe that currently, he is extremely weak…! And this is the perfect time to take advantage!
With such a plan in his mind, Danzo nodded to himself… And just as he was about to act on it, several Kunai were shot at him by one of the Anbu following him, Danzo sensed the Kunai coming towards him, he turned his head and was about to avoid them, that’s when it happened.
Before he could take a single step to dodge anything, all he saw was a strange red World. At the same moment a silver flash appeared in front of him out of nowhere, and the next thing he knew, he was feeling a sharp pain coming from his chest…
“What?” Unable to figure out what just happened in that blink of an eye, Danzo looked down and noticed an arm covered in lightning running through his chest… and three black tomoe spinning in the scarlet pair of eyes of another Anbu…
“Cough…!”
