Danzō just quietly listened to his subordinate's explanation without any change in his expression. It was as if he was listening to a story that had nothing to do with him. Not only did he not feel anything, but he also felt a little dispirited.
"Are you done?"
Finally, when the squad leader wanted to say something, he saw Danzō's expression. His legs immediately went soft, and he knelt on the ground.
"Sir! Sir! I beg you, since I joined Roots, I have been doing my best. I have done a lot of dirty work, even if I don't have any merits, I still have some hard work. Please spare my life on account of my unwavering loyalty to Root, my lord! Sir! "
At this moment, the squad leader seemed to realize that his explanation was useless, so he hurriedly told Danzō how loyal he was to Roots, and how much he longed for another chance to prove himself.
However, Danzō still didn't change his expression. It seemed like Danzō was tired of the squad leader's words. If this goes on, maybe Danzō will start yawning. As soon as he stretched out his hand, a Root ninja immediately went to Danzō's side and handed a Katana to Danzō with both hands. Danzō looked at the squad leader quietly and put the Katana in his hand on the squad leader's neck.
If an ordinary person had a Katana on their neck, even if the other party was their superior, they would still fight with all their might. After all, if an ordinary person gets angry, blood will splash everywhere, let alone someone who wants to take their life.
However, the squad leader could only tremble in fear under Danzō's indifferent gaze. Every member of Roots was brainwashed and trained by Danzō from a young age to become a completely loyal fighting machine. They were the ones who Danzō had a fatal weakness. From the squad leader's performance, he was naturally not a loyal follower of Danzō. If he was really a loyal follower of Danzō, he would have already killed himself. Why bother wasting Danzō's time?
"Actually, it's normal to fail a mission. Who hasn't failed a mission before? After all, even the Wood leaf White Fang, Hatake Mauso, had given up on a mission before. Your strength is far inferior to Hatake Maoso's, so failing the mission is not something unforgivable. " Danzō's expression instantly turned amiable. If he ignored the machete he was holding against the captain's neck, perhaps Danzō would look more like an uncle next door.
"However, your real mistake wasn't failing the mission. Instead, he underestimated the enemy, was impatient, and found excuses for himself. When you kidnapped Nangong Rou, you didn't check if there was any hidden mark on her body. Instead, you used the talisman that I gave you. The talisman is indeed powerful, but it's not omnipotent. Second, after capturing Nangong Rou, you acted like a fool and went straight to our base. Although I gave you a time limit for the mission, that time was enough for you to find and even get rid of the people who were following you, but you still didn't do anything. Finally! This is what makes me angry the most! Failure, arrogance, impatience, these things are human nature. Even if I am angry with you, I won't harm your family, but you have been looking for excuses for yourself … You are forcing me to take you, kill! Chicken! Dog! Monkey! "
Danzō's last four words were full of murderous intent. Directly, the head of the squad leader was thrown into the air. Blood gushed out from his neck.
Danzō didn't pay attention to the body of the squad leader who was still in a kneeling position. Instead, he looked at Nangong Zhe.
"I have already seen through it. I don't know what method this kid used to destroy the center of the formation and absorb the formation's energy at the same time. But I am too lazy to stop him. Since I want to subdue him, I naturally have to defeat him when he is at his strongest! Come on! Let me see what you look like after you've completely absorbed the power of the formation. "
Danzō muttered to himself, but Nangong Zhe naturally couldn't hear it. However, Nangong Zhe was also very puzzled. The commotion he created wasn't small. No matter how stupid the Root ninjas were, they should have organized a force to stop him after such a long time. Originally, Nan Gongzhe had expected that he would only be able to absorb half of the 36 central nodes, which meant that he would have made a profit by absorbing 18 of them. However, Nan Gongzhe had already absorbed twenty-seven of them. Only the nine strongest central points had yet to be absorbed.
This made Nangong Zhe feel a little flustered, because all of this was too illogical.
"Fine, fine. Since I can absorb more Natural Energy, I'll be able to increase my own strength. Why not? Even if Danzō really has some kind of plan. That way, I can have more bargaining chips to fight him head-on. "
Nangong Zhe thought for a while and finally figured it out. He directly absorbed the natural energy that was easily scattered by the sword energy dragon without any scruples.
Time passed by like this, with Nangong Zhe's eagerness and Danzō's indifference, time naturally passed faster.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion occurred on the ground. This was the sound of Nangong Zhe breaking through the last and strongest center of the formation. The energy wave instantly swept the surrounding ground. The trees near the center of the energy wave were also overturned by the energy wave. They became crooked, and a few were uprooted by the energy wave and thrown into the distance.
Nangong Zhe finally absorbed all the natural energy. He felt his aura and the energy level of the sword energy dragon. Nangong Zhe knew that this is already the strongest power he can exert. This is also the only chance Nangong Zhe has to fight for his life.
If he can't fight against Danzō like this, Nangong Zhe can only desperately rescue Little Linger and Mashiro, and directly use the formation to teleport them to the different space where the lion clan is, and wait for the limelight to pass before returning to the Ninja World.
Of course, now is not the time to think about the escape route. Now, Nangong Zhe only needs to fight to the death. Seize all possible opportunities to win, and fight against Danzō head-on.
Fight! And then win!
Only in this way can Nangong Zhe realize the Martial Arts spirit in his heart. Maybe this is also the time when Nangong Zhe breaks through the bottleneck, and truly combines the three elements of heart, technique, and physique into one, breaking through to the so-called Kage level.
This battle had to be fought!
