Danzo's Secret

Danzo smiled at Ye Lan, saying, "Young friend, since you are so powerful, how about we spar?"

Ye Lan smiled back at Danzo, "What's this? Are you so eager for me to join your Anbu?"

"Or are you trying to force me? Let me tell you, I only respond to kindness, not force. If you insist on forcing me, I'd rather die here than go with you to that damn Anbu of yours. Unless you kill me."

"Alright then. In that case, young friend Ye Lan, let's have a match. If I happen to win, you'll come to Anbu with me. We'll talk about why you came to Konoha."

"If I lose to you, you can go wherever you want from now on, do whatever you want. I, Danzo, will do my best to help you. And I'll apologize to you today."

"I'll properly apologize for having those two capture you and for their attitude towards you. Is that fair enough? Are you satisfied?"

Ye Lan smiled and said, "Okay, let's do it your way, old man. Let me see how strong you are. Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you have a few extra eyes on your arm." The aura Ye Lan displayed at that moment startled Danzo. Danzo wasn't surprised by Ye Lan's aura, but by what Ye Lan said: a few extra eyes on his arm.

Could it be… Danzo thought, his heart stirred, does he know all my secrets? Danzo's admiration for Ye Lan turned into a trace of killing intent. Ye Lan also felt a slight unease because he had inadvertently revealed the fact that Danzo's arm was covered in Sharingan. This was a secret that almost no one else knew, but for Ye Lan, who had watched the entire Naruto series, it was nothing.

But for Danzo, anyone who knew this secret was as good as dead. However, Danzo truly admired Ye Lan, so he decided to have a good match with Ye Lan today to see what his strength was. If he was truly strong but didn't pose a threat to him, he might even be able to make Ye Lan work for him.

Danzo laughed loudly and then said, "Young friend Ye Lan, in that case, let's begin! Let me see how strong you really are."

Ye Lan laughed loudly, "Hahaha! Old man, come on! Let me see how powerful the famous Anbu leader is!" Danzo said nothing.

He just smiled slightly. The next moment, the frail old man with the cane moved instantly, appearing in front of Ye Lan. Just as Ye Lan was about to resist, Danzo struck him on the neck with his cane. Ye Lan's heart stirred, and he felt a wave of dizziness. Ye Lan could have resisted the dizziness, but he wanted to know what Danzo wanted to do with him in Anbu. Was he going to interrogate him or kill him?

Ye Lan simply cooperated with Danzo and fell into his arms. When Danzo saw that Ye Lan had been knocked down with a single blow, a hint of doubt and confusion appeared in his eyes. He couldn't believe why he had been defeated so easily. But he didn't think too much about it and immediately had two masked men carry Ye Lan away, taking him back to Anbu.
