Returning to the Root Headquarters, Abura Ryuma was there waiting for so ti.
"Lord Danzo."
Seeing Danzo walk into the room, Abura Ryuma greeted him respectfully.
Danzo waved his hand, sat down on a chair, and picked up a piece of intelligence from nearby to read.
"Still unable to find anything specific about that organization?"
"No, Orochimaru is keeping this secret very strictly."
Abura Ryuma shook his head.
Continuing cooperation with Orochimaru, only a very few people within Root know about this matter.
Ever since Orochimaru left Konoha, he has beco much less interested in cooperating with Root.
Regarding this, Abura Ryuma couldn’t find any good way. Orochimaru has already left Konoha and naturally can no longer be restrained by any previous thods.
Now, Orochimaru can be said to be as free as a bird flying high in the sky.
While looking at the intelligence, Danzo tapped his fingers lightly on the desk, seemingly contemplating the gains and losses of cooperation with Orochimaru.
Although Orochimaru’s attitude was unclear, which made him very dissatisfied, considering Orochimaru’s importance to Root, he still couldn’t take so extre asures.
Informing Hiruzen about Orochimaru joining a certain organization was also to distract Hiruzen’s attention. The Anbu wanted to capture Orochimaru but it wasn’t that easy.
If Orochimaru were really so easy for Anbu to capture, Danzo would only feel disappointed.
"That guy Orochimaru stole many Forbidden Techniques from the Sealing Book when he left Konoha. We can continue to cooperate with him but must also maintain a certain level of vigilance."
"Yes." Abura Ryuma nodded then asked, "Is there still no way to resolve the matter with Uchiha Itachi?"
"Hiruzen is very tight on this, even revealing that Minazuki Yuzuki has issues hasn’t made him consider switching Uchiha Itachi’s team."
One might say, placing Itachi under a Konoha Jonin full of jealousy makes it easier for Hiruzen to control this unpolished weapon.
"It’s really strange."
Abura Ryuma furrowed his brow.
Although Minazuki Yuzuki’s ability is quite good, due to his strong jealousy, what he can teach Itachi will surely be just trivial matter.
Logically, knowing all this, the Third Hokage Hiruzen should imdiately take action, thoroughly investigate Minazuki Yuzuki, and then transfer Itachi to another team for training, to strengthen Itachi’s sense of belonging to the village.
It’s important to know that since Ninja School, Root and Hiruzen’s side have started observing Uchiha Itachi.
However, Root discovered this genius earlier.
Thanks to Danzo’s sensitivity to ’darkness’, he instantly recognized Itachi as soone belonging to Root’s side.
If it was to guard against Root, then quickly moving Itachi to reliable individuals would be more beneficial for developnt.
But since the Third Hokage hasn’t done so, the truth behind this matter is intriguing.
"Uchiha Shisui."
After closing his eyes, Danzo suddenly thought of sothing, and his eyes snapped open, a sharp gleam flashing.
"Uchiha Shisui? That Shisui of the Body Flicker?"
"Yes. He’s Kagami’s descendant, and Hiruzen had contact with him early on. In our intelligence, Itachi and Shisui seem to have a good relationship too."
Thus, whether Minazuki Yuzuki takes Itachi’s training seriously is fundantally unimportant; the Third Hokage has long arranged soone to guide Itachi.
Letting soone from the Uchiha Clan lead makes it easier to keep Itachi under control.
Even knowing Minazuki Yuzuki has issues, the Third Hokage wouldn’t be in a hurry.
For him, whether Minazuki Yuzuki has problems is unimportant, and investigation is just a cover for other actions; the real ntor for Itachi is the Uchiha Ninja with the ’Shisui of the Body Flicker’ title.
"If that’s the case, then it gets a bit troubleso."
Shisui of the Body Flicker is absolutely a troubleso guy within Root’s intelligence system.
His Instantaneous Body Jutsu is very special, extrely swift and fierce, quite similar to the forr Konoha White Fang and Yellow Flash, both speed-dominant powerful ninja.
Moreover, the opposing side has the Sharingan said to surpass illusion technique mastery, over and above the Instantaneous Body Jutsu.
If focused only on his Instantaneous Body Jutsu while neglecting his Sharingan illusion techniques, it would definitely be a great loss.
As a seasoned senior, Abura Ryuma has no confidence at all against Uchiha Shisui.
This frustrates Abura Ryuma quite a bit; the newcors of Konoha are always crawling with monsters.
From past Uchiha Ruri, Hyuga Ayane, and Namikaze Minato to now Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Shisui, including the not yet fully-grown Uchiha Itachi...
Three of them belong to the Uchiha Clan.
Abura Ryuma secretly clicked his tongue in admiration; the Uchiha Clan is truly overwhelmingly powerful.
After the Senju Clan’s decline, Konoha’s strongest Ninja Clan is undoubtedly the Uchiha.
Having support from the Uchiha as a background, approaching Uchiha Itachi is essentially a gamble.
"Among the younger generation, the only one who can handle Shisui of the Body Flicker would probably be Kakashi."
Danzo nodded, after all being a descendant of Kagami, he underwent strict ninja education since childhood, naturally not comparable to ordinary Uchiha ninja.
Unfortunately, such a talent doesn’t belong to Root but stands on Hiruzen’s side.
"Even Kakashi might not have much of a chance."
"Kakashi is an important piece; he cannot be moved rashly at this mont."
"I understand, it isn’t ti to use Kakashi just yet."
