The night was deep.
In the bright office of the Root Underground Headquarters, Comrade Danzo sat comfortably on the sofa, his one eye squinting as he intently read the intelligence in his hand.

Danzo sneered, "The Fourth Mizukage actually died by the Gentle Fist. No wonder the Mist Village sent an envoy to Konoha."
This is truly excellent!
Danzo smilingly put down the intelligence and picked up a stack of documents beside him.
These were medical reports from Konoha Hospital, detailing all patients admitted in the past day due to unconsciousness and weak aura. A rough count showed at least eighty people!
