Chapitre 155: Chp-155: They Must Not Disturb Lord Danzo
The night was deep and the Hyuga compound was completely shrouded in darkness.
Silently, on the outskirts of the compound, a large number of Root ninjas had gathered.
Some stood on utility poles, some on the roofs of nearby houses, and others on the surrounding walls.
Danzo's figure emerged from the darkness, walking towards them.
"Lord Danzo, no patrolling Hyuga ninjas have been spotted nearby."
A Root member reported to him in a low voice.
Danzo nodded, scanning the surrounding Root members with his eyes.
"You all understand the importance of this mission. There must be no mistakes."
"Understood!"
"Good, very spirited!"
Danzo nodded approvingly. It was the first time in many years he had praised his Root members.
Then, he began to form hand seals, and a surge of chakra flowed.
Several nearby Root members also formed the same seals, mimicking Danzo's movements exactly.
The outermost Root members started to conceal their chakra presence, making the execution of the jutsu silent and unnoticed.
Buzz!
A thick darkness suddenly descended, spreading into the Hyuga compound under the cover of night, gradually enveloping most of the area.
It seemed that nothing had changed, but upon closer inspection, the surrounding darkness of the compound appeared somewhat distorted.
Danzo exhaled. With such a powerful genjutsu, there would be few ninjas interrupting tonight.
Satoru Hyuga should already be caught in the genjutsu.
Danzo's eyes narrowed.
All that was left was to control him. He couldn't wait to obtain that miraculous magnet release.
Inside Satoru Hyuga's residence.
In an instant, a large number of Root members had appeared.
Bang!
Danzo kicked open the door.
Before entering, he glanced at the Root members behind him.
"You guard outside. Leave the rest to me. Remember, no one is allowed to disturb me!"
"Yes, Lord Danzo!"
The Root members responded immediately.
Danzo nodded in satisfaction.
He needed time to use the curse seal to control Satoru Hyuga. It wouldn't take long, at most ten minutes, for a new Satoru Hyuga to be born.
Completely under his control, life and death would be at his whim.
Such a powerful ninja would be too wasteful without a collar.
Click! Click!
Danzo's footsteps echoed on the wooden floor in the silent room.
Outside, the Root members guarded cautiously, keeping a close watch on their surroundings.
"Not on the first floor?"
Danzo scanned the area, not finding Satoru Hyuga, and turned his attention to the second-floor bedroom.
The seal on his right hand was already being quietly undone, his eyes filled with caution, his movements becoming more deliberate.
Despite his confidence in his genjutsu, he was prepared for any unexpected situations.
Step by step…
He ascended the stairs to the second floor, stopping in front of the bedroom door.
He turned the handle slowly with his left hand.
Click!
The crisp sound of the mechanism was clear in the silence.
Danzo held his breath.
Pushing the door open, he saw Satoru Hyuga sleeping on the bed and sighed in relief.
"Who would have thought I'd be nervous because of a kid."
He chuckled self-deprecatingly and began his work.
Forming a strange seal, black curse marks spread from his feet towards Satoru Hyuga on the bed.
"You should feel honoured. This is the Root's treasured Shinigami curse seal, far more powerful than the Cursed Tongue Eradication."
The writhing black curse marks gradually engulfed Satoru Hyuga, with twisted characters moving towards his forehead.
Danzo smiled.
Now all he had to do was wait for the curse seal to take hold.
When Satoru Hyuga woke up, he would be Danzo's loyal puppet.
Hiruzen, can't you see? Your hesitation can't save Konoha!
Only those with enough resolve can find a way to survive a desperate situation!
Controlling Satoru Hyuga would make even you and Orochimaru no threat to me.
No, perhaps I won't reveal myself immediately. Instead, I'll quietly take over the Hyuga clan.
I've heard that the reformed Hyuga has undergone tremendous changes. Hehe…
The position of the Fifth Hokage is already mine!
Danzo could see the position he had longed for so many years beckoning to him, and he couldn't help but feel excited.
Just then, a curious voice came from behind him.
"What are you doing?"
"I am…"
???
Danzo shuddered. Wait, no!
The Root members were supposed to be outside. Who's behind me?
Turning around, he was dumbfounded.
"You, you, you... how are you outside?"
Satoru Hyuga stood behind him, squinting as he leaned over, curiously staring at him.
"Oh, I had to pee just now. When I came back, I saw you sneaking around outside my room…"
Satoru Hyuga scrutinised Danzo up and down.
"What are you up to?"
Danzo was thrown off balance.
You are outside?
Then who is inside?
Satoru Hyuga seemed to read his confusion.
Snapping his fingers.
The Satoru Hyuga on the bed, covered in black curse marks, suddenly collapsed, revealing a pile of silver metal particles.
"I didn't want my bed to get cold while I was out, so I made a replica of myself to keep it warm. Is there a problem with that?"
Satoru Hyuga stared at Danzo with a strange expression.
After a moment of shock, Danzo became furious.
Damn it!
He had been played by this kid!
He immediately attempted to attack.
Shing!
A metal blade pierced his heart.
His body froze, blood dripping from the metal blade to the floor.
"You…"
Danzo glared at Satoru Hyuga, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins, staggering before collapsing to the floor.
Nice acting.
Satoru Hyuga sneered.
Even if the Uchiha clan hadn't been annihilated, Danzo had plenty of revival chances.
Old man, trying to outplay me?
You're still too green!
Satoru Hyuga waited calmly, expecting Danzo to revive.
...
Meanwhile, outside.
Hyuga clan members had already discovered the Root members.
A large number of Hyuga shinobi were rushing towards them.
The Root members guarding the house saw this and immediately fortified the entrance.
"Damn it! We've been discovered?"
"The curse seal still needs some time to take effect. We must not let them disturb Lord Danzo!"
The prepared Root members immediately began forming seals, standing at the four corners outside the house. Purple light barriers shot up into the night sky, instantly engulfing the entire house.
Barrier Technique!
Four Violet Flames Formation!
The Root's strongest barrier technique, centred on four Jonin-level Root members, was impregnable even to a Kage-level ninja for an hour!
As the Four Violet Flames Formation took shape, numerous Hyuga shinobi arrived, surrounding the Root members.
Holding metal sniper rifles, they instantly encircled all the Root members.
"Chief, should we fire?"
The leading Hyuga ninja looked at Hizashi Hyuga.
"No rush," Hizashi squinted. "Satoru instructed us to just surround them."
