Chapter 201 Wood Escape Ninja

Danzo asked Kakashi and Kai to retreat with satisfaction, and he took the information scroll and went back to study the specific assassination plan.

Kakashi left the Root Organization's base alone and walked toward his home.

However, after arriving home, he feinted a shot, took a detour and quietly came to the Hokage building, and jumped from the outside to the window of the Hokage's office with ease.

"Hokage-sama."

Kakashi knocked on the window and saw Sarutobi Hiruzen smoking a pipe and reviewing documents in the office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen heard Kakashi's call, turned around and saw Kakashi, and waved for him to come in.

So Kakashi opened the window and jumped into the Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen put down the documents, held his pipe in his mouth and said, "What's wrong? Kakashi, is there something urgent?"

The pipe on Sarutobi Hiruzen's mouth shook up and down as he spoke, and the smoke was so thick that he couldn't see the expression on his face.

Kakashi knelt on one knee and said: "Report to Lord Hokage that Danzo Shimura is planning to assassinate Hokage."

The pipe on Sarutobi Hiruzen's mouth suddenly stopped shaking and was taken off.

The burning smoke was rising, and the expression on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face finally changed, and he hesitated: "Are you sure?"

Kakashi raised his head and said, "It's absolutely true that Danzo roped me in to participate in the assassination plan. For the sake of the overall situation, I pretended to agree and helped him obtain information about Hokage-sama going to the Daming Mansion. I stabilized Danzo and then came to find Hokage-sama."

Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes, leaned on the chair and sighed: "Did Danzo actually make trouble to the point where he has to kill me..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to be lamenting that the friendship between the two since they were young could not compare to their current struggle for power.

After all, the two have known each other since childhood and have formed a bond with each other. They are both friends and competitors, and their friendship is not ordinary.

It took a long time for Sarutobi Hiruzen to get over the shock of this news.

"You did great, Kakashi."

"Since Danzo will come to you, it means that he is fully prepared."

"This temporary compromise will help you deliver your message to me safely."

"But you should have reported to me earlier. Fortunately, it's not too late now."

"Since Danzo wants to take action on my way to Daming Mansion, then we will use his plan."

"Kakashi, I want to give you a task."

Kakashi lowered his head and said, "Hokage-sama, please do as you please."

"In order to avoid alerting the enemy, I need you to pretend to be me and set off as planned."

"You just need to ensure your own safety and attract the attention of Danzo and his men. Leave the rest to me."

Sarutobi Hiruzen put the pipe into his mouth again and started puffing away.

Kakashi naturally agreed.

In his heart, Kakashi still chose Sarutobi Hiruzen between Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen had been Konoha's Hokage for many years.

Moreover, Sarutobi Hiruzen's generous performance also made Kakashi understand the difference between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo.

On the day of the trip, Kakashi used the transformation technique to disguise himself as Hiruzen Sarutobi wearing the Hokage robe.

Kakashi just set off with the escort team.

Along the way, Kakashi imitated the words and actions of Sarutobi Hiruzen, making sure that Danzo's men couldn't tell the difference.

The journey seemed calm, but Kakashi knew that he was taking a long-term approach to catch the big fish, so he was not in a hurry.

The group of people traveled halfway along the established route, passing through a small road with no village in front and no store in the back, when Kakashi finally waited for Danzo's men to take action.

A group of enemies dressed as wandering ninjas blocked everyone's way and started fighting with the members of the escort team.

It was at this time when all the guard members were restrained that the real killer move arranged by Danzo came out.

The young ninja A from the Root Organization sprang out from the bushes on the side, formed a seal and launched a ninjutsu to attack Kakashi.

The Third Hokage, played by Kakashi, exclaimed in shock, "What? It's actually Wood Release!"

Thick wooden thorns grew out of the ground and pierced the body of the "Third Hokage" while he was in shock.

This was Danzo's courage to assassinate Hokage.

After all, ninjas are still human beings. In most cases, no matter how powerful a ninja is, their bodies are still fragile.

Even a single kunai can kill an enemy, let alone a huge wooden thorn that directly pierces the body.

But to Kazuo's dismay, the one he hit was not the real Third Hokage.

I saw that the "Third Hokage" turned into wood with a bang after being penetrated.

Kakashi appeared from the tree on the other side, looked at A condescendingly and said: "You are actually the Wooden ninja of Konoha, why did you help Danzo assassinate the Hokage?"

A didn't answer Kakashi's question, he just felt sorry for the miss just now, and then stretched his hands forward in a seal.

Wood Release: The Technique of the Great Forest!

A's outstretched arm turned into an elongated piece of wood and attacked Kakashi who was standing on the tree.

Lightning suddenly appeared in Kakashi's hand.

Rachel!

Although there is no blessing from the Sharingan, after improving the changes in chakra properties and using it skillfully, Kakashi's Raikiri no longer relies on the thrust distance.

Kakashi first dodged the Wood Release attack sideways, and then relied on the power of Raikiri to destroy the wood formed by the Wood Release Technique of the Great Forest. After several moves, he destroyed A's Wood Release and took this opportunity to attack A.

A was defeated by Kakashi, and he couldn't dodge and was forced to the ground by Raikiri.

However, Kakashi's thunderstorm did not fall down and take away A's life.

The expression under A's mask is very confused.

Kakashi's expression under his mask was very complicated.

"If there were Konoha ninjas who came to help at that time, I'm afraid Minato-sensei wouldn't have to sacrifice himself."

Kakashi thought to himself as he looked at the boy lying on the ground in front of him.

Wood Release, like the Sharingan, has the ability to restrain tailed beasts.

That's why Kakashi thought that if the Wooden boy in front of him had been on the battlefield at that time, the Nine-Tails would have been suppressed by the Wooden.

But Kakashi was wrong about one thing.

The truly powerful one has never been Mu Dun, but Senju Hashirama.

Although the armor in front of him also possesses Wood Release, his strength is far inferior to Senju Hashirama.

Senju Hashirama's Wood Release can easily suppress the Kyuubi, but Senju Hashirama's Wood Release may even have trouble controlling a personal Chuuriki.

Even if Danzo was really willing to let A go on the battlefield, it would be of no use.

A, who fell to the ground, waited for death with his eyes open.

Seeing that Kakashi has not made a move, although A doesn't know the specific reason, he still naturally understands that his top priority now is to run away.

A was about to get up when he heard Kakashi's words.

"Where did you learn Wood Escape? Forget it, you won't be the one. Let's go."

"I won't kill you because your Wood Release will help Konoha sooner or later."

When A heard this, he didn't respond and fled in a hurry.

The "wandering ninjas" who were originally fighting the escort team saw that Kabuto failed to assassinate the Hokage. Even the Hokage was not the real Hokage.

Knowing that there was no point in continuing to fight, they all retreated from the battlefield.

In order to avoid casualties, the escort team did not pursue the victory.

The plan to assassinate Naruto failed.

However, at this time, Danzo had already arrived at the Hokage's office and sat down in front of the throne that belonged to the Hokage.

Danzo sat in the Hokage's seat majestically, turned his chair towards the window, leaned on the back of the chair and imagined himself successfully ascending to the Hokage's throne.

The desire for power emboldened Danzo to carry out such transgressive actions.

This also shows that Danzo is very confident in this assassination plan.

Just when Danzo was lost in fantasy, the door to the Hokage's office was opened, and Danzo said displeased: "Didn't I say no one is allowed in?"

However, Danzo heard a very familiar voice.

"Sorry, I have no plans to give that chair to anyone else for the time being."

Danzo was so frightened that he quickly turned his chair back and saw Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression as if he had seen a ghost.

"It seems you want to ask me why I am still alive."

Danzo knew he was in the wrong, cold sweat broke out on his face, and he reluctantly explained: "No, no, I just heard that you left for Daming Mansion in the morning."

Sarutobi said: "A certain man rebelled, no, I should say defected."

"Informed us that we will be attacked on the way to Daming Mansion."

Upon hearing this, Danzo clenched his fists nervously, stood up and propped up the table, his face not very good-looking, although his face was not good-looking in the first place.

"The prisoner will know immediately as soon as he investigates. In this case, that person will definitely not be able to escape the death penalty."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes sharpened in a rare way, staring at Danzo, making Danzo feel like a light on his back.

Danzo gritted his teeth and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, his mood dropped from high to low like a roller coaster, and then he looked away, shock, regret and other emotions filling his principle heart.

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned around at this time, facing Danzo from the side, and looked out the window and said, "But I don't advocate additional sacrifices."

"If I meet that person, I want to tell him."

"I will not be held accountable for this action."

When Danzo heard this, even he couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

"In exchange, I hope that person will do his best for the village from now on."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff from his pipe.

Danzo was grateful that Sarutobi's kindness had saved his life, and silently walked to the door to leave.

When he was about to leave, Danzo stopped, turned back slightly and said, "It's been like this from the beginning, you are the light and I am the darkness."

"Where there is light, there must be darkness, but if one of them is missing, the world will no longer be smooth."

Danzo's words at this time were his sincere thoughts.

Danzo also figured out that Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't kill him because the two of them were one light and one dark, one black and one white.

The two of them are already indispensable in a sense.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is the Hokage bathed in the sun, while Danzo is the root buried deep in the ground.

So Danzo's hostility towards Sarutobi dissipated, and he gave another instruction before leaving.

"Also, be careful Uchiha Che. I also invited him. Although he didn't agree, he never refused."

Sarutobi Hiruzen held his pipe in his mouth and murmured: "Uchiha Che...?"

After Danzo left, Kakashi also returned to the village that day.

"Enter."

This time Kakashi knocked on the door and came in.

Kakashi walked into the Hokage's office after hearing this.

"Hokage-sama, the mission was successfully completed with no casualties."

"Very well done, Kakashi."

Kakashi lowered his head and ignored Sarutobi's praise, but reported a very important piece of information.

"The person responsible for assassinating the Hokage is a Wooden ninja and Danzo's subordinate."

"Oh?" Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his eyebrows, obviously surprised by the news.

"Could it be that that experiment was successful..."

Sarutobi muttered quietly, but Kakashi heard it keenly.

After the report, Kakashi absentmindedly left the Hokage's office. Kakashi, who was supposed to go home and rest, accidentally came to Che's home.

"You're here. Have you completed the mission Danzo assigned you?"

Che asked as he let Kakashi in.

"It's done. I chose the Third Generation's side and told the Third Generation the information. Danzo's assassination plan has failed."

"However, during the assassination process, I discovered a wood escape ninja..."

"Mudun Ninja?" Che pretended that he had never heard of it. Che really had not heard of this matter. After all, he could see it with his eyes.

"That's right. Although he is not strong now, he will definitely be useful to Konoha in the future, so I didn't kill him."

"The Third Generation Master should know the inside story. He said it was related to some experiment, but I didn't take the initiative to ask."

Kakashi told everything he knew, and it was obvious that he still cared a little about it.

So Che said: "Wooden Ninja, experiment. I have heard from Orochimaru about the experiment more than ten years ago about transplanting Hashirama cells into babies to create Wooden Ninja."

"Calculating the age, the age of the young boy with Wood Dungeon matches exactly."

Kakashi nodded subconsciously, then suddenly realized something and looked at Che, "How did you know he was a boy?"

Che realized that he had let something slip, so he added: "Danzo sent that young man to invite me to assassinate Hokage with him. At that time, I could tell that the young man must be relying on someone to win Danzo's respect. I didn't expect that this young man was actually relying on Mu. escape."

Kakashi was successfully persuaded, nodded and said: "Yes, Danzo entrusting him with such an important matter really shows his trust."

Che added: "If you want to know more about the specific Neirou, you can go to the Konoha archives to find out."

So Kakashi sneaked into the archives of the Hokage Building that night, thinking that he would only get the information about the wood escape experiment.

After rummaging around, Kakashi successfully found the information.

"Did you actually cause so many casualties in order to study Mudun?"

Kakashi saw a horrific experiment death toll.

This shows that the only successful person in this experiment was the wood escape boy, and his data should have been hidden by Danzo.

"That's right, the experiment of transplanting Hashirama's cells caused too many casualties, so I asked it to be stopped."

"I didn't expect that Danzo would get a successful experimenter."

Sarutobi Hiruzen appeared in the archives at some point and startled Kakashi.

"Hokage-sama, I'm sorry, I'm not..."

Facing Kakashi's salute and apology, Sarutobi Hiruzen said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, I noticed your reaction when I mentioned the experiment. Young people are always so curious about knowledge. I don't blame you. .”
