Inquiry

"Please come with us."

Several Anbu blocked the Bright family party. The pioneers, who had only just finalized a deal with Danzō, looked annoyed.

"Is this how you treat your guests?"

Just then, Shimura Danzō, who handled Root's day-to-day affairs under Tobirama and had recently set his sights on the so-called virus vaccine, came strolling over with his cane. He questioned the Anbu.

"Whose orders are these? They're our guests."

Seeing Danzō step in to speak on their behalf, Henry Bright relaxed a little.

Danzō had told them he was the Hokage's aide, a man of very high standing.

Henry had even learned from Danzō that the guy who sold his ass had managed to latch onto the young Fourth Hokage.

Henry didn't know how that guy had gotten so lucky, but Danzō had said he was a senior to the Fourth Hokage and had great influence.

He could resolve any problems they ran into, and as a disciple of the Second Hokage, he had a good chance of becoming the next Hokage.

With a powerful figure like that at their side, they naturally had nothing to fear.

"It had to be him! He must be trying to get back at us and use you to eliminate us. Don't let him use you!"

Henry Bright hurried to speak up.

In his eyes, the lone pioneer Jack wouldn't dare show his face alone again after offending their group.

He was judging Jack by his own standards. If he were in Jack's shoes, he would absolutely use underhanded tricks and try to stir up these ninjas against him, taking advantage of home turf to eliminate a future threat!

What a bastard!

Still, at least Henry had sensed the danger and used the vaccine to get in with Danzō as quickly as possible.
