Take advantage of the insect swarm's cover.
This barely escaped chance, but in less than a second, this was the position that was completely locked. In another corner, Jiu couldn't help but his expression changed again. He knew very well how big the gap was between himself and the Uchiha Clan genius opposite.
In Separation War a year and a half ago, Jiu also participated in the battle as the guard of Danzo. The power of Shōji penetrated deep into Jiu's heart. The Susanoo that followed, as well as the terrifying "Thunder Ninjutsu Style", all left extremely deep psychological imprints on Jiu.
That is an existence that I absolutely cannot resist.
Originally, Jiu thought he had a chance to escape after seeing Shōji not using Mangekyō Sharingan. He wanted to use his Parasitic Worms as a cover to evacuate, but unfortunately he was locked in position just after he opened a little distance.
'Without Mangekyō Sharingan, can your perception and insight be so strong? No, it should be said that in the past year and a half, this guy has become stronger again! Compared with that time! '
Jiu's heart suddenly shook.
"Boom!"
Facing the opposite position.
Shōji It was Chakra that burst out again, forcing its way in.
'hateful! '
Biting lips.
It was obvious that there was no way to further open the distance, so the only option was to face the approaching Jiu head-on.
"Secret Technique—Insect Cloud and Wind Technique!"
The battle between the two also entered the final fierce moment.
And at the moment when Shōji was closing in on Root, one of the most powerful members under Danzo, in another location, the special mother and son Nonō and Kabuto also had an in-depth conversation, truly confirming each other's identities and exchanging some intelligence issues in the past years!
"So, Dean, are you really planning to take refuge in Iwagakure like this?"
Yakushi Kabuto couldn't say whether the decision made by the dean of the family was correct, but it seemed that under such circumstances, it was indeed a helpless choice, not to mention that Shōji seemed to be persuading Nonō with empty words.
He is the main character Zui Dun as Original Work fans jokingly call him.
But in fact there is an essential difference between the two. What is Zuidun? Talking big words out of thin air has no practical meaning, and then letting the enemy believe you is called talking nonsense. It is like the two most bizarre scenes of Naruto in Original Work, persuading Nagato and Obito. Every word Naruto says is utopian persuasion.
What do you mean by "I will never give up", "Peace will definitely come", "I will definitely become Hokage and change the world." '
In the final analysis, they are just passionate slogans. What will you not give up? What are your methods for peace to come? How are you going to change the world?
As the protagonist, Naruto did not put forward any plans or plans with practical significance.
They are always shouting slogans. The only plan that can be regarded as a solution is to make everyone let go of their hatred and then build a world where people trust and understand each other. This is the biggest reason why many people complain that Naruto is the strongest king of mouth escape.
Verbal persuasion is the most conventional method.
Not to mention the world.
Just mention Great China, the art of speech in reality refers to an excellent diplomat, in ancient times it was an outstanding Strategists!
However, there is a premise here, or something in common, that is, any words must be based on reality. This is beyond doubt!
And this is also the biggest difference between Shōji and Naruto. Talking about ideals and not knowing the so-called words is called mouth escaping. Looking at reality accurately and talking about interests and threats is called the real art of persuasion!
Shōji undoubtedly grasped Nonō's biggest weakness. The safety of Yakushi Kabuto and the children in the orphanage was used as capital to persuade Nonō. This is a benefit, and then Danzo's behavior was used as a threat.
He even further promised that he would do everything possible to save the children in the orphanages in the future. Only with dual efforts did Nonō waver.
After all, the power of words is very powerful, but it must be based on reality. The behavior of Naruto in Original Work to persuade Nagato and Obito is really outrageous What is a little bit different, and what is even more unacceptable to some people is that it is not just that Naruto can whitewash the two of them by talking about their ideals, but more importantly, one of the two is the enemy who killed his master, and the other is the enemy directly related to the death of his parents!
Naruto can actually forgive these two people, and then help them clear their names and persuade them. I have to say, this is really a 'Mother'!
This is why the evaluation of the protagonist Uzumaki Naruto at the end of Original Work is a little polarizing.
In fact, what was done here was a little inhumane.
Shōji himself feels this way, at least if Shōji is brought into the identity of Naruto, Nagato, Obito, Madara, Black Zetsu, one by one, all of them must be wiped out!
Don't talk about righteousness or peace.
As a person who has received the Great China concept education.
We all know what Confucius said, repaying grievance with straightness and repaying kindness with kindness is what a normal human being should do!
This is also the standard that Shōji has always acted. This is true for Third Tsuchikage in Iwagakure. It is also true for Third Hokage before he decides to leave Konoha. He is a human being and will definitely not abandon the seven emotions and six desires that humans should have!
Saintly Mother Complex, that's not what Shōji wants!
The same is true on the Nonō side.
Intimidation and inducement!
That's Shōji's method.
Yakushi Kabuto can also see this clearly. It is really difficult for mother and son to have any other choice. Rather than being persuaded by Shōji, it is better to say that they have weighed all the situations and made the choice on their own initiative on the basis of ensuring their own safety and saving the children in the orphanage.
"Yes, I originally planned to say that Danzo did not intend to kill me, so I chose to die here with that Uchiha Shōji, but Danzo's behavior is undoubtedly a very obvious signal. Especially you, Kabuto, Danzo deceived you and deceived me. If we continue to go all the way, not only us, but also Urushi in the orphanage will be in a very dangerous situation, which I don't want to see."
Nonō said with a sad face and a low sigh, does she believe Shōji? No, she doesn't believe Shōji, but Danzo's behavior has completely made Nonō lose the possibility of other options. She can't take Yakushi Kabuto to defect to the ninja villages of other countries, right?
Let alone whether you can successfully escape from the clutches of Shōji, just looking at the future risk and return ratio, it is a very stupid choice.
After all, this is the result of having no choice.
Unless Nonō is really willing to accept the useless death of himself and Kabuto, and then just wishfully believe that Danzo will not embarrass the remaining children in the orphanage.
Do you think this is possible?
No fool would do this!
In the final analysis, Shōji just took advantage of the situation, put some necessary realistic information in front of Nonō, and then made such a decision on her own.
"I understand, Dean..."
Although Yakushi Kabuto is only 12 years old, he is already very mature. He was taken away by Danzo when he was only six or seven years old. He joined Root and received the most rigorous training. Later, he became a spy in various countries. What he has seen over the years is The knowledge and experience have made Yakushi Kabuto grow a lot, not to mention that Konoha 12 in Original Work can almost be regarded as a flower growing in a greenhouse, even compared with those ninjas who have experienced Shinobi World War.
The current Yakushi Kabuto is no less generous.
He could clearly identify his situation, and he also understood the helpless choice made by his dean.
Not only for themselves, but also for their companions in the orphanage.
"But once the news here is spread back, I'm worried that Danzo will directly attack Urushi and the others. In that case..."
And such a choice obviously comes with corresponding risks, which are the children in the orphanage who are still in Konohagakure.
A few years ago, Yakushi Kabuto could appear to be taking the initiative, but in fact he was forced to join Root. Now Nonō and Kabuto are being used to allow the remaining children to join. In Root, Kabuto is still a little too immature. Nonō is the senior spy trained by Root in the true sense. She is too aware of the darkness and cruelty of Root!
She has no objection, and is even happy to see those children can become ninjas. After all, this is the highest status profession in the world, but she hopes that her children can become active ninjas under the sunshine, rather than the kind of ninjas who hide in the darkness, have a higher mortality rate, and may even die with a bad reputation at any time.
"This depends on the attitude of Mr. Shōji and Iwagakure!"
Nonō said seriously.
Although he didn't know why, Nonō could vaguely sense whether Shōji valued him extraordinarily. Even though he did have a lot of value as a senior spy, the slightest regard Shōji revealed from the inside out was beyond his own value. This was Nonō's intuition.
Of course, Nonō doesn't know that the reason why Shōji values her so much is not because of herself, but because of Yakushi Kabuto, who is an extremely talented person. Yes, Shōji doesn't know how Orochimaru in Original Work conquered Yakushi Kabuto. Even if he knew, he would probably not use it.
Because that is inconsistent with Shōji's own style.
Just like saving Reina mother and son in Kusagakure.
He does value their identity as the Uzumaki Clan orthodox bloodline, but he definitely does not use the lowest and despicable means to exploit and squeeze the two of them. The highest level of method is to use them with favors and restrain their emotions!
Yakushi Kabuto The same is true here!
Now he has not despaired of the world, and there is still warmth and sunshine in his heart that belongs to him. The core figure is Yakushi Nonō, and Shōji knows very well that he only needs to grasp this!
Then spend a certain amount of time and energy, this is the most likely way to make Yakushi Kabuto truly return to his heart, and this is what Shōji does!
This is also the best way for the other party to know that they are using you, but they are still willing to be driven by it!
Although Nonō did not understand what Shōji was really thinking, it did not prevent her from drawing corresponding conclusions. When Yakushi Kabuto heard the words of the dean who was as close to her mother as she was, she nodded slightly after thinking for a while.
"Well, I understand, Dean!"
In fact, compared to Nonō who cares about everyone in the orphanage including Yakushi Kabuto, Yakushi Kabuto's inner ranking is very different. Nonō is the most important. Of course, he also hopes to see the happiest ending, but he must If he had to make a choice, Yakushi Kabuto would choose his own mother, the dean. To put it bluntly, the reason why Kabuto took the initiative to mention Urushi and his companions in the orphanage was of course out of his own feelings, but mostly because he cared about Nonō's feelings.
Nonō can detect this to some extent, but she cannot and will not point it out. This is not only her gentleness, but also because she knows very well that this is Kabuto's care and concern for her.
"If you can, Kabuto, tell me about your experiences over the years..."
Now that you have made up your mind.
Then of course there is no need to hesitate.
Nonō, with a touch of pity, gently stroked Yakushi Kabuto's little head and said softly to the topic that had just been turned over.
"Yes, Dean!"
This is a choice that must be made based on common sense.
Shōji is not worried about the results on this side at all. It can be said that as long as Danzo does not change the practices in Original Work, when this batch of Anbu elites carry the order to kill, and the moment Yakushi Kabuto appears, Nonō's choice is already destined.
You can persuade Nonō and Kabuto to join Iwagakure.
A calm attitude.
This is already a leisurely state of being sure of everything.
But at this moment, it was in sharp contrast to Jiu, who was already beaten by Shōji in the opposite position.
Almost effortless.
Although Jiu struggled for a while, under Shōji's lightning-fast offensive, all Aburame Clan's secret techniques that Jiu released were cracked by Shōji, and this was without turning on Mangekyō Sharingan.
This made Jiu feel gloomy deep inside.
He knew very well that he was definitely no match for Shōji.
He was also prepared to die, but he could easily suppress himself without using all his strength.
There is a huge disparity in the strength shown by this kind of Chi Guoguo.
Let Jiu's heart completely fall to the bottom.
"Bang!"
And under the heavy blow from Shōji, this place could not withstand the gravity.
"Whoosh"
"Boom!"
The dove fell heavily to the ground again, with a dull sound accompanied by the dust raised.
"Wow!"
There is an uncontrollable fishy-sweet smell in the throat.
Strong blood spurted out.
The sound of thunder was "sizzling".
Jiu's body fell into a state of complete paralysis, and the soft touch of his limbs made Jiu unable to stand up anymore. Even mobilizing a trace of strength seemed so difficult and painful at this moment.
"Crack!"
It is also the power that is passed on together.
The mask worn by Jiu could no longer withstand the slightest crack, and then expanded rapidly.
"Bang!"
The mask shattered in an instant.
A face with a slightly dark atmosphere was exposed, which was Aburame Clan's usual look. It was also the same black sunglasses. The only difference was the purple lines on the right face, the moment I saw it.
Shōji also raised his eyebrows.
"Aburame Ryūma?"
This name came directly to Shōji's mind. The moment he said it, the dove in the opposite position, or should be said to be Aburame Ryūma, did not show any surprise. In his opinion, Since Uchiha Shōji appears here, it means that Iwagakure attaches great importance to this spy pursuit operation. What's more, the witch-Yakushi Nonō is very likely to rebel from the beginning!
Therefore, Ryoma was not surprised by such a scene.
He didn't know that Shōji could 'recognize' his identity so easily, not because of any intelligence source, but purely from the plot memory deep in his brain. Of course, this was also because of this Aburame Ryūma appeared together with Orochimaru as a subordinate of Danzo in Original Work, which left a trace of Shōji's past life memory.
Just like those people I met before, these are not the most important main plot, or the plot memories of the main characters have been actively sealed by me, but as long as I see the relevant characters, they will suddenly emerge from the depths of my brain.
And since this Aburame Ryūma could serve as Orochimaru's partner in Root, it is enough to prove his strength. Although he must have reached his personal bottleneck, or it can be said to be the upper limit of the clan, there is no way to get stronger, and he will be distanced by Orochimaru.
But Aburame Ryūma is undoubtedly on the level of Elite Jōnin.
At least this was reflected in the battle just now. Even though Shōji seemed to be at ease, the process was not easy. Of course, this was also because Shōji did not use all his strength, and it was also because he wanted to capture Aburame Ryūma alive that led to such a result.
The difficulty of killing someone is completely different from that of capturing someone alive!
It is very clear that the person opposite Aburame Ryūma will not take the initiative to say anything, and Shōji is naturally too lazy to worry about it.
The figure stepping forward.
"Sharingan!"
Facing Aburame Ryūma who has no resistance at all.
Shōji easily controlled Aburame Ryūma using Sharingan.
"Phew!"
"Bang!"
Then he took out a flare directly from his arms.
Launched towards the sky.
When the bright light bloomed high in the sky, the other Iwagakure Ninjas led by Ogata were quite a distance away from Shōji's location.
"Up!"
They also surrounded the central position immediately. Under the guidance of Shōji, the remaining three Root members were captured or killed one by one by the Iwagakure Ninjas. Whether they were alive or dead, they had a way to get the information they Iwagakure wanted from the brains of these Root people!
The reason why Aburame Ryūma exists is because as a member of the insect control family, if he dies, Parasitic Worms in his body will definitely die with it, and the research value will be greatly reduced. Although it is a good gift, since it has to be given away, it must be given perfectly. This is why Shōji is so expensive.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Shōji only stayed in place for a short while, and the remaining Root people were also dealt with one by one.
Followed by.
Ogata also brought several Iwagakure Ninja to the location of Shōji.
"Shōji-kun!"
The moment he saw Shōji, the Torture and Interrogation Force leader of Iwagakure also showed joy. Originally, he thought that this spy investigation would be a complete failure, and he felt shameless to face Lord Tsuchikage, I didn't expect that in the end, things would turn around. Not only was the trace of Wandering Miko firmly grasped, but now we could also obtain a batch of more Root elite people from Konohagakure!
These are all real achievements!
The biggest contributor to such a result is naturally Shōji. Ogata, who had been very pleased with Shōji before, became more and more satisfied at this moment. He is indeed a very outstanding young man!
No wonder our own Lord Tsuchikage values it so much!
The most important thing is that it is not only reflected in the means and strength, but also in the mind and mentality!
At this moment, Ogata couldn't help but have the idea deep in his heart that Shōji might not be able to become a leader in his village in the future.
Although it was only for a moment, it was enough to explain the problem.
And this is exactly what Ōnoki wants to see unfold. Little by little, Shōji's majestic image will penetrate deep into the hearts of everyone in the village. This will be conducive to Ōnoki's arrangement of Shōji. After all, although the power of the shadow is great, it is impossible to be dictatorial and arbitrary, especially when it comes to the selection of successors.
Including Second Hokage Tobirama Senju naming Sarutobi Hiruzen as successor to Third Hokage, which seems to be an arbitrary act by Tobirama Senju alone, but in essence it still depends on two points. One is that Sarutobi Hiruzen has the corresponding strength, and the other is that Sarutobi Hiruzen has the corresponding prestige, that is, someone supports it!
Danzo Why not?
He always thought that it was because he was half a beat too slow in his choice that time that he missed the position of Hokage.
But in fact, this is only one of the reasons, not the main reason at all. In the final analysis, Danzo's personal strength is not as good as Sarutobi Hiruzen, and his popularity and prestige in the village are not as good as Sarutobi Hiruzen. These two are the fundamental reasons!
However, Danzo himself has entered a dead end, or even if he has figured it out, he is still hypnotizing himself.
This is the stupidest and saddest thing about Danzo.
If Ōnoki wants to train Shōji to become Tsuchikage, it is natural that the whole village, at least most people, must agree with it.
There is a saying that goes well, this position is not something you can gain recognition from others by sitting on it, but you can only be qualified to sit in it if you gain recognition from others!
"Haha, Ogata-san, thanks for your hard work on guarding the outside. This person is the commander of this Root operation. He is one of Shimura Danzō's confidants. Jōnin of the Aburame Clan has very important value and significance to our village. I also deliberately spared it."
Smart people don't need to explain themselves.
One or two sentences can make it clear.
