Chapter 16: Chapter 16
"This technique stops our shinobi from talking about the village secrets, even in the case of someone controlling him."
"And everyone in root is branded by this technique. So, Akari you ready to be branded by this technique to prevent the village secrets from going to enemies hands." Danzo asks him.
"Yes, Danzo-sama I will do anything for the village." Akari says.
'Damn, he is going to put the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal on me.' He thinks.
Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal is a fuinjutsu technique.
This cursed seal is given to all members of the Root by Danzo Shimura, to ensure no information about him or the organisation fell into the wrong hands.
When the wearer of this cursed seal speaks about anything incriminating related to Danzo or Root, their entire body will be paralysed, taking away their ability to speak or move.
It is applied to the tongue and takes the shape of three solid lines and two broken lines from the back of the tongue to the tip.
And Akari knows only one way to remove it. And that is if Danzo dies.
After that Danzo nods at him and beckons him to come towards him.
"Take your tongue out and endure the pain." He says.
Akari comes towards him and opens his mouth.
Danzo starts from multiple hand seals quickly which Akari is not able to see.
And after many seals, Danzo put his finger on his tongue and says "Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal."
As the seal forms on his tongue, a jolt of pain passes to every part of his body and after a few seconds he collapses.
Danzo completes the seal and then sends him to his room to rest with the help of a root shinobi.
After sending him, Danzo with a poker face says.
"Another important seedling brainwashed. If he becomes a Jonin or a Kage level shinobi in future then he will be a important piece in my plan to acquire the Hokage position."
Next day,
Akari wakes up groggily, after hearing Sai's voice.
Right now his pain has subsided and then he remembers what happened yesterday.
He quickly ran to the bathroom and opens his mouth and sees his tongue.
The shape of three solid lines and two broken lines from the back of the tongue to the tip is very ominous to see.
'Damn it.' He thinks with anger and frustration.
'Well, I can't do anything about it right now. So, it's not good thinking about it all the time.'
'I should first try to improve my strength.' He thinks.
After composing and controlling his emotions he brushes his teeth, and takes a bath.
After getting ready he went towards the training ground and starts running in it.
To increase the difficulties he places obstacles and does obstacle running. It improves his body skill, desterity, jumping ability and also balance.
Seeing him training like this, his roommates also did it but they got exhausted very quickly in just 30 minutes.
He didn't stop but did this training for two hrs straight.
At 6, Dagai comes and seeing them train like this he nods and says "That's a good training method, Well done."
After that like usual they did the other types of training.
This process went on for a month and then the test day came.
On test day, Dagai arrives early at 4AM.
"Today I will give you a wish for asking me anything to anyone who comes first but ask in moderation." He says then starts to take the test.
First, it is obstacle running which Akari completed and got first place even if after one month of training the other children has improved.
Then, it was weapon throwing. In that also he struck all bullseye.
In Ninjutsu, all the children preformed the three basic jutsus. But Akari also performed the Earth Wall jutsu.
In theory, Akari and Sai came first.
After the exams Dagai said "It goes without saying that Akari has come first. So what do you want Akari."
