Chapter 834
Chapter 829: See for Yourself!
A gloomy Stone House, with only a single incandescent lamp providing dim, yellow light.
This seemed to be a place specifically used for Interrogation, with various torture Items placed everywhere. Many dried and blackened bloodstains could also be seen on the Ground.
At this moment.
Three Cloud Hidden Ninja, wearing grey shirts and pants with single-shouldered white vests, were tied to a somewhat dirty wooden frame, their heads hanging low, seemingly having lost Consciousness.
The Cloud Hidden Ninja who survived from the Land of Wind had not yet managed to return to the Land of Lightning, as the journey was long.
But with such a group of Panic-stricken Cloud Hidden Ninja passing by, many of them injured, and no sign of the Third Raikage, how could the Intelligence Department of other Ninja Villages not take advantage?
It was inevitable that some Cloud Hidden Ninja would mysteriously disappear along the way.
"Lord, the Intelligence from their Memory has been summarized."
A male Ninja with somewhat brownish-yellow hair handed the notebook containing a lot of Writing to Danzō, who had been waiting behind him for a long time.
The current Danzō had not yet obtained Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan.
Therefore, his face wasn't wrapped in any Bandage, making him look much cleaner in appearance.
However, his Habit of wearing a black Robe hadn't changed. Coupled with his gloomy Expression, he exuded an Aura that made people feel depressed.
"Mm."
Danzō took it. The Mind Reading Technique mastered by this Ninja of the Yamanaka Clan could view past Memory not only from a Living Person but even from a dead person, as long as their Brain still had activity.
It was just that this person seemed a bit too straightforward; he even recorded everything the Third Raikage said.
Including the sentence: 'A bunch of stinking rats from the sewers, do you even deserve This Old Man's respect? Even if that Danzō were here, if he didn't kneel, he wouldn't have the Qualification to speak to This Old Man.' This was also written down completely, word for word.
Seeing this made Danzō's Heart burn with Evil Fire.
But Yamanaka Asaichi in front of him maintained a blank Expression, leaving Danzō speechless and forced to suppress his displeasure.
However.
The following Content made Danzō unable to help but wear an Angry Expression, and the hand holding the notebook made a chilling sound from the force he was applying.
"What a bunch of rats! How dare they impersonate Konoha Ninja and This Old Man's Root!"
It had always been their Root impersonating Ninja from other countries to cause trouble. Now, someone was actually using this tactic against their Root.
It was utterly shameless, outrageous, and going too far!
This scapegoat situation truly fell from the sky.
He believed it wouldn't be long before rumors started spreading throughout the Ninja World that their Konoha Root Ninja had not only taken Control of Rōran in the Land of Wind but also that a Nameless Expert had defeated the Cloud Hidden Troops and even managed to Capture Alive the Third Raikage.
At that time, the Cloud Hidden Village would definitely make things difficult for Konohagakure, and other Great Ninja Villages nearby would also send more Spies to gather Intelligence.
But the problem was, they didn't do any of this!
Of course, deep down, Danzō hoped that the Powerhouse who Captured Alive the Third Raikage was truly someone from his Root, preferably a Powerhouse who was completely under his Control.
Merely using the Sand Control Ability to restrain over three thousand Cloud Hidden Ninja in the Sand, rendering them unable to move, including many Jonin.
This Strength was definitely greater than that of the Third Kazekage, who was said to be the Strongest in history.
Others might not have seen it, but Danzō had participated in the Second Great Ninja War ten years ago and had personally witnessed the scene when the Third Kazekage made his move.
"Lightning Release Chakra is ineffective against the Sand he controls?"
Danzō narrowed his Eyes, feeling somewhat surprised and suspicious. He felt this Intelligence was very crucial because it violated the basic relationship between Chakra Natures.
So he wondered, would Water Release be effective against this Sand Control Technique?
Although theoretically, as an Earth Release technique, Sand Control Technique should Counter Water Release.
But he vaguely remembered that his Teacher back then, meaning the Second Hokage, had mentioned that his Water Release could break the Sand Control Technique.
However, there was a problem here.
That is, if the Combat location was within the Land of Wind, it would be difficult to perform Water Release in the dry Desert, except for a very few Water Release Powerhouse.
So, with Lightning Release being ineffective, how should they deal with this overly tall Nameless Expert?
Danzō habitually fell into Thought about this question.
Because he was certain this person would pose a threat to Konohagakure. If this person was also a Powerhouse from Sunagakure, the threat would be even greater.
Although Sunagakure had always been the weakest among the Five Great Ninja Villages, it was still one of the Five Great Ninja Villages, strong enough to easily crush other Small Country Ninja Villages in the Ninja World.
Not to mention, according to previous Intelligence, Sunagakure also had Rasa, who could repel the Third Raikage.
"Is Sunagakure about to rise?"
Danzō's mood was heavy. He felt he should inform that Sarutobi guy about this Matter as soon as possible. As a Higher-Up of Konohagakure, he was all too aware of the impact such a Genius could bring.
After all, Konohagakure had the most Genius, and perhaps because of this, they didn't cherish them as much.
"It's best to find a Method to deal with this as soon as possible..."
Thinking this, Danzō, enveloped in cold Killing Intent, turned and left the gloomy Prison Cell.
As for the three Cloud Hidden Ninja, they wouldn't be killed for now. Orochimaru had been needing quite a bit of Experiment Material lately, and it was unknown when he would achieve results from his Research.
The First Hokage's Cells... every time he thought of them, his Heart filled with anticipation.
"I Hope to witness the Strength of Wood Release soon..."
Danzō's low murmur echoed in the empty Underground Base, then was swallowed by the Darkness.
At the same time.
Just as Danzō had thought, with the appearance of a large number of defeated and fleeing Cloud Hidden Ninja, the Matter that occurred in the Land of Wind gradually became known to various countries.
Especially Kirigakure in the Land of Water and the Stone Village in the Land of Earth.
Their Anbu had also captured some Cloud Hidden Ninja, more or less.
However, because they didn't have Ninja like the Yamanaka Clan who were useful for Intelligence Detection, the methods and process of Interrogation were much more brutal and bloody.
But what needed to be known, was known.
For example, the group of black-clothed Ninja who occupied Rōran claimed to be Konohagakure's Root Ninja.
If this was true, did that mean the Sand Control Powerhouse who Captured Alive the Third Raikage was also from Konoha?
This immediately made Konohagakure the Focus of the Ninja World.
Of course, some people doubted the authenticity, wondering why that Sound Release Ninja named Tengen Uzui would expose himself as a Konoha Root Ninja.
However, this doubt disappeared with more detailed Intelligence.
Because it was stated very clearly here that they initially pretended to be Ninja from some Sea Ninja Village, even preparing their attire and Headbands.
And the Identity of Konoha Ninja, as well as Root Ninja, was something the Third Raikage himself tricked out of them.
Furthermore, concerning that group of 'Sea Ninja,' they were extremely proficient in Strong Fist Style Taijutsu, Illusionary Sword Technique, and could even generally suppress the Cloud Hidden Ninja who were originally skilled in Martial Arts and Swordsmanship.
Also, the Intelligence that they had a Crow Ninja Beast per Personnel, many were skilled in Archery, and possessed some kind of Small Explosive Pill and Long-Handled Repeating Firearm, was successively learned by the Higher-Ups of various countries.
"Aside from Archery, no matter how you look at the others, they seem to fit Konoha's existing characteristics quite well..."
Inside the Stone Village's Tsuchikage's Office.
Ōnoki, who was not yet sixty years old this year, was wearing a red shawl. He was reading the Interrogation Intelligence sent by his Son, Kitsuchi, and said thoughtfully while stroking his Chin.
Strong Fist, Genjutsu, Swordsmanship, Crow Ninja Beast, and relatively high Weapon Technology...
"But what about Sound Release and Sand Control Technique? Also, it's mentioned here that the opposing Ninja had no Chakra Signature on their bodies and didn't use any conventional Ninjutsu?"
The honest and sturdy Kitsuchi Shake Head and said, "It is quite strange. But I'm very curious about that person being three meters in Height. How tall is that? I wish I could see it for myself."
At two meters and seventeen centimeters himself, he had always felt he was quite tall in the Ninja World.
But Ōnoki felt a bit annoyed hearing this.
"Hmph, what's the use of just being tall? It just makes you a bigger target!"
