Naruto: The Ridiculously Talented Uzumaki Chapter 161: Better to Kill by Mistake

Is this... a Wood Clone?

"Ugh... cough!"

Abura Torune and Fu Yamanaka were tightly bound by the tough wood, making it even harder to breathe, their eyes filled with horror.

Especially Fu Yamanaka; after the initial shock, an extrely familiar Ninjutsu na that absolutely shouldn't have appeared here, along with a long-buried code na, exploded in his mind like thunder!

Wood Release... Kinoe?

Except for the legendary First Hokage, Fu Yamanaka had only seen Wood Release on one person.

The Wood Release test subject who once belonged to 'Root' with the codena 'Kinoe', and was later personally taken away by the Third Hokage and given the new identity 'Tenzo'!

"Kinoe... how could this be... could it be..."

Fu Yamanaka's mind, blurred by lack of oxygen, turned with difficulty.

"The one who wants to kill Lord Danzo... is the Third Hokage?"

This thought made him shudder.

If it really was the Third Hokage pulling the strings, sending Tenzo, who mastered Wood Release, to assassinate Lord Danzo... what did that an?

A split in Hidden Leaf Village's highest echelons of power?

A long-planned purge?

However, he had no more ti to think.

Just as the Wood Clone successfully entangled the two, Naruto's figure slowly erged from the shadows on the other side of the hall.

He still wore the fox mask, his black robe silent, and the ice-blue blade in his hand reflected a cold, death-like light in the dim illumination.

He slowly walked up to the two of them.

Naruto, wearing gloves, stuffed a piece of paper inscribed with runes into Abura Torune's mouth, then took out an identical piece and stuffed it into Fu Yamanaka's mouth, sealing the 'Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal' in their mouths.

After doing all this, Naruto used a mory Sealing Technique on the two Root elites who were in a semi-conscious state due to suffocation and the power of the talismans.

Naruto had t Torune before; he and Shino had a good relationship, and Shino treated him like an older brother.

So he couldn't kill Torune.

Sleep; when you wake up, the darkness will be gone.

When you open your eyes again, your younger brother will co to pick you up.

After loosening the space slightly so the two wouldn't suffocate, Naruto straightened his black robe and then swaggered to Danzo Shimura's door.

He raised his hand and curled his finger.

"Knock, knock, knock."

Neither too light nor too heavy, even with a sowhat polite rhythm, he knocked on the door.

The room fell silent for a mont.

Then, a voice with a hint of fatigue and breathlessness, yet forced to remain calm, drifted in. It was strikingly Fu Yamanaka's voice, imitated perfectly:

"Lord Danzo, we have captured the thief who tried to assassinate you.

The opponent... actually knows Wood Release; it's 'Kinoe'. It seems the one who moved against you this ti is the Third Hokage."

The room fell into a brief dead silence again.

"That fellow Hiruzen... would he really move against ?"

Danzo's voice finally sounded, carrying a deep sense of disbelief and a trace of icy anger at having his 'reverse scale' touched.

Fine, so you've finally lost your patience and decided to move against ?

I only planned to assassinate you a few tis, yet you dare to send soone you snatched from to deal with ?

Wait, is that really Fu Yamanaka?

How could Kinoe be captured so quickly?

"Screech!"

A piercing tearing sound suddenly rang out.

Not from outside the door, but from inside.

A highly condensed, incomparably sharp pale green Wind Blades sliced through the door panel without warning, carrying a shrill whistling sound, and slashed directly at the position where 'Fu Yamanaka's' voice ca from!

This strike was ruthless and decisive, clearly Danzo's choice for the most direct test amidst his suspicion.

Or rather, to silence a witness!

No matter who was outside, or whether the assassin was really captured, he would kill them first.

Better to kill by mistake than to let one go!

How could a re Fu Yamanaka compare to his own life?

However, what the Wind Blades hit was not a body of flesh and blood.

The mont the Wind Blades burst through the door, Naruto had already raised the ice-blue longsword in his hand, the blade held horizontally, precisely blocking the fierce Wind Blades.

"Clang!"

A crisp but short clash.

The Wind Blades hit the ice sword and exploded into countless turbulent air currents, making Naruto's black robe flap loudly, but it failed to shake him in the slightest.

The ice sword didn't even show a single crack; instead, it emitted an even more biting coldness.

The door was completely cut open. Naruto continued to use Wind Pressure Suction with his left hand, and as the wind blew through, the door collapsed inward with a bang.

The scene behind the door ca into view.

Danzo Shimura had already unwrapped the layers of bandages that were wrapped around his right arm year-round, revealing that abnormally pale, eerie arm covered in dark red Sharingan patterns.

His left hand tightly gripped a sharp Kunai, his body slightly bowed in a perfect combat stance, and his only remaining left eye was locked onto the person outside the door like a venomous snake.

However, when he saw that the person outside was not the expected Fu Yamanaka, nor was it 'Kinoe', but rather the black-robed person wearing a fox mask, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Imdiately afterward, his gaze fell on the crystal-clear, ice-blue longsword in the opponent's hand that emitted an ominous coldness.

Ice Release?

Danzo's brow furrowed deeply, his suspicion growing even stronger.

Countless thoughts flashed through Danzo's mind like lightning, but his long-standing insidiousness and decisiveness allowed him to instantly suppress all doubts.

No matter what, the opponent had seen the Sharingan on his right arm, so he couldn't be left alive!

"No matter who you are, today, this place will be your burial ground!"

Danzo's hoarse roar was still echoing in the cold air, and the row of eerie Sharingan on his right arm began to glow with an ominous red light, with a faint tendency to spin.

The air in the entire room seed to beco thick and filled with killing intent.

Naruto's figure disappeared.

It wasn't high-speed movent or the afterimage of the Body Flicker Technique, but a true, unannounced 'Spatial Jump'!

The position where he appeared was not any attack angle Danzo had predicted, but... on the door panel at Danzo's feet, almost right in front of him!

What was even more bizarre was that when he appeared, his left hand had already turned into a blurred afterimage, with determined precision and coldness, his five fingers like hooks, piercing straight for Danzo's right eye under the bandages!

"What?"

Danzo's pupils contracted.

The distance was too close, and the way the opponent appeared was too bizarre!

He didn't even have ti to activate Izanagi, only having ti to tilt his head back sharply by combat instinct while subconsciously blocking with his right hand.

But, it was too late.

Naruto's left hand seed to cross the barriers of space and ti, ignoring the tiny distance and Danzo's hasty reaction; his five fingers were covered with a layer of Chakra blades condensed to the extre, passing through without hindrance.

Puchi!

A tooth-aching, wet muffled sound.

The five fingers precisely gouged into Danzo's right eye socket, and sharp pain swept through Danzo's entire brain like an explosion.

"Ah!!!"

A shrill scream that didn't sound human burst from Danzo's throat, filled with unbelievable pain, horror, and a trace of deep-seated fear and fury from the depths of his Soul.

Is it a Chakra Scalpel?

Is the opponent also a dical Ninja?

Could it be one of Orochimaru's test subjects?
