"Danzō …"
Nangong Zhe looked at Danzō who was standing on the ground, and for a moment, his face became ugly. Because in Nangong Zhe's view, even if he is not the strongest person in Wood leaf, he is still a powerful Wood leaf Ninja. However, Danzo simply watched Nangong Zhe destroy the Root Guard's Formation with an indifferent look on his face. He didn't even try to stop Nangong Zhe.
If you have to describe Nangong Zhe's mood at this moment, it's like a lion performing on a stage. Baring his fangs, he wantonly showed his strength.
But a Beast Tamer just stood beside the lion with an indifferent face, quietly watching the lion pretending to be strong, gently stroking the slightly rough leather whip in his hand, waiting for the lion to feel the proudest and give it a fierce whip, making the lion completely submit. Just like that, he became a well-behaved cat that can only submit to his own strength.
Nangong Zhe's sword energy dragon was staring at Danzō and the group of Root Ninjas behind Danzō.
Originally, under the deterrence of Dragon's Might, the legs of many Root ninjas were slightly trembling due to fear. If one could see through the white masks painted with various patterns on their faces. If you look at the white mask on their faces, you can even see that most of their faces are slightly pale, and because of the pressure, their faces are unnaturally flushed.
But Danzō just quietly looked at Nangong Zhe's sword energy dragon without a trace of fear. He just had an indifferent expression, as if no matter how strong Nangong Zhe is, no matter how powerful the sword energy dragon is, it can't affect Danzō's heart at all.
Hero? Dragon? Danzō didn't care about any of this!
It seems that as long as Danzō wants, the dragon can turn into an ordinary snake in an instant, and the so-called hero can turn into a corpse lying at Danzō's feet.
"Nangong Zhe? Sword energy dragon? Not bad. "Danzō nodded, as if he was praising a junior. His tone was somewhat gratified and emotional: "Actually, from the first step you took in Wood leaf, I saw the battle between you and Kakashi. A person from a poor background, relying on an ancient training method that has been eliminated by the times, can actually compete with Wood leaf's genius Hatake Kakashi. This is really rare, so when Sandaime-sama proposed to directly upgrade you to a Chunin, I voted in favor of it.
After that, the mission files and records of your battles with the enemy village were placed on my desk almost every time. At that time, I made up my mind to recruit a person like you to Roots! "
Nangong Zhe didn't expect that Danzō would notice a small shrimp like him before he made a name for himself. Nangong Zhe was really surprised, but Nangong Zhe still shook his head and said:
"That is also to thank you for your trust in me. I also understand that if I reject you this time, then our positions will instantly be on opposite sides. But I still don't want to join Roots and become a ruthless person who harvests lives. So, perhaps because of Shi's personality, I and Root Shi are destined to be on opposite sides. "
But when he heard Nangong Zhe's words, Danzō couldn't help but laugh.
"Ruthless? Is this your impression of Roots? "
"Isn't it? As long as it can complete the mission, all actions are allowed. They can obviously use other methods to achieve their goals, but they still insist on killing people for fun. If this kind of organization isn't ruthless, then I really don't know how ruthless they are! "
Hearing Nangong Zhe's words, Danzō's smile only increased, and he laughed even more heartily.
"Wantonly killing people? What kind of people do we deal with, I believe Nangong Zhe, you should know. They are nothing more than corrupt officials, or rich merchants who prey on the common people, or even ninjas who betray the village or spies who want to spy on the Wood leaf.
We killed the family of an official, and you said that we killed the innocent. But the money that the official embezzled, did his family not spend at all? We killed the servants and family of the rich merchants, and the family naturally enjoyed the ointment that the rich merchants took from the common people's bones. Aren't those servants also accomplices of the rich merchants who prey on the common people? There are also the ninjas who betray the village and the spies from other ninja villages. You don't need me to tell you, the main thing is that the people who dare to hide them are also spies planted by the Di people. Now, do you still think that the ninjas of Roots are a group of emotionless machines? Every Root Ninja is not emotionless, but they are a group of people who display their love to the extreme, and their feelings to the extreme. I believe that every ninja of Roots can proudly say that they are a hero who abandoned their personal honor and disgrace and dedicated everything to the Wood leaf.
I did use a lot of harsh means to deal with them, but none of them are fools! If Roots is really a place that survives by relying on the rule of terror, why do more and more people join Roots every year and become a member of Roots? And why are they willing to risk their lives for Roots? When you came to my door and blindly emphasized your nobility and greatness, did you think about what I said? "
Danzō said calmly, although his tone was still indifferent. But there was a kind of high-spirited will contained in it! Every ninja who stood behind Danzō, who originally had some fear in their hearts, extinguished the fear in their hearts at this moment. Instead, they straightened their backs and proudly held their heads high. For a moment, their momentum was incomparably high!
There was indeed a reason why Root was able to grow into such a behemoth, and even be able to compete with the Dark Group and even suppress them. Whether it is Danzō or the Roots ninjas, they are full of confidence in themselves. They firmly believe that everything they do is beneficial to Konoha, and they are all things that are worthy of their hearts.
"Oh?" Nangong Zhe was slightly shocked after hearing Danzō's words. But Nangong Zhe quickly recovered his consciousness and said: "I have to say, Danzō -sama's grasp of human nature and the skill of using words is extremely profound. At least, even people like me feel that what you are doing is right.
But … So what if it's right, and so what if it's wrong? You have neglected an important thing, and that is, I don't care whether the Wood leaf becomes stronger or more rotten. Wood leaf has never been my home, I just regard it as a place for me to stay.
You kidnapped Mashiro and Little Linger, and that is enough for me to stand on the opposite side of you! "
