Just as Danzo was running for his life in a flurry, a figure suddenly flashed and appeared right before him.
The person who arrived was none other than Ryuuzaki Eiji.
"It really is something else. To be able to escape right under the noses of so many Anbu and great families' ninja in Konoha, you're quite the character. But what a pity, you can't escape these eyes of mine."

Eiji suddenly
