A figure blocked Narak's path!
Narak glanced at him and immediately recognized him as Aburame Torune, one of Danzo's right-hand men!
Only he and Danzo had survived that slash!
Danzo had relied on the Sharingan's Izanagi, while Aburame Torune had transformed himself into countless tiny insects at the critical moment, thereby avoiding being cut down!
But he had paid a tremendous price. Most of the insects he had painstakingly cultivated and carried inside his body had been killed by the spiritual pressure!
"Lord Danzo, I'll hold him off. Run!"
Aburame Torune shouted anxiously at Danzo!
"Torune, good. I'll remember this!"
Seeing that someone had blocked Narak's pursuit, Danzo was delighted and hurriedly fled!
"Do you think you're a match for me?"
"You're merely trying to stop a chariot with your mantis arms. If you had stayed there pretending to be dead, I might not have had time to kill you. But you insisted on coming here to die!"
Narak shook his head at Aburame Torune as he spoke!
As for Danzo? Narak was in no hurry now!
Shinsō was not merely fast and powerful!
Its blade tip was coated with a deadly poison, one capable of directly dissolving cells. Even if Danzo made it outside, he would still die!
Facing Narak, Aburame Torune wore an expression of absolute resolve!
"Even if I die, I'll stop you!"
"From the day we entered Root, our lives have always been something we could offer for Lord Danzo!"
"Root has no names and no emotions, no past and no future. In our hearts, there are only Lord Danzo and our missions!"
Aburame Torune spoke to Narak in a firm tone!
"Sigh, you're nothing more than a pitiful insect brainwashed by Danzo. Since that's the case, I'll send you on your way and free you!"
