Bab 84: Chapter 84
Standing silently on the spot, Kaito's feet were already strewn with corpses.
Blood covered the ground, the viscous blood was so penetrating under the moonlight, and Kaito was also slightly out of breath.
Continuous use of 'Secret Technique: Void Walk' was indeed a significant drain for Kaito.
Even if his chakra reserves far exceeded that of ordinary people because of the Mangekyou Sharingan, it still couldn't bear the stacking mechanism of 'Void Walk'.
He now sincerely missed the concept of 'Calm and Composed', unfortunately, he had never seen anything like it.
If the skill settings would allow him to regain chakra by killing an enemy, he could then truly use this technique without worry.
"But my chakra recovery is not weak, and luckily this skill was modified to adapt to this world, otherwise I wouldn't be able to use the original version at all."
Taking a deep breath and feeling the condition of his own chakra, Kaito shook his head with a wry smile.
Given the current situation, Kaito had to carefully control the interval and frequency of using this technique. At most, he could only use it as a 'coordinate-free Flying Thunder God' now.
Dreaming of spatial turbulence and such was beyond his reach at this moment—unless he could summon a Tailed Beast or something, but that's not realistic.
However, what he can't do now does not mean he can't do it in the future, especially since Kaito had acquired Uchiha Obito's severed arm, which made him more hopeful about his future.
Although the consumption was large, Kaito didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what he was doing.
Both the Root and Anbu have a rule that they must destroy their own bodies in case of mission failure. Naturally, Kaito wouldn't give them time to initiate this technique.
So even if the consumption is somewhat high, he's willing to bear it, because these guys are all evidence.
"Have they arrived?"
While Kaito was contemplating, footsteps were heard from a distance. In fact, not long after Kaito started his move, he had detected chakra fluctuations from afar.
Clearly, this must be Shisui leading his clan members out and already engaging in battle with the people outside from Root.
And when his battle was over, the chakra fluctuations in other places began to gradually cease. They were now converging towards where Kaito was.
"Clan leader."
Soon, Shisui and Uchiha Fugaku had arrived, and behind them, the Uchiha ninjas were more or less stained with blood.
Obviously, the recent battle was not easy, after all, the ninjas of Root were not easy opponents, but most importantly, they won.
"Has everyone arrived? How are things?" Kaito asked directly. "What's the casualty report?"
"Those guys were pretty strong. We've lost some clan members, but since you, Clan Leader, attracted most of their firepower, the situation is still tolerable.
However, we were unable to preserve the bodies of some."
Uchiha Fugaku said in a low voice, and Shisui by his side also nodded.
In this kind of desperate ninja fight, there will inevitably be casualties. The key lies in whether the number of casualties is acceptable, and the inability to preserve bodies indeed leaves them helpless.
But the situation this time is still something they can accept.
Kaito, after all, is a man who has been on the battlefield. Although he also mourns the death of the clan members, what he cares about more are other matters.
"I understand. Then, Shisui, I'm counting on you next." Kaito looked at Shisui and spoke seriously: "I don't know if any of them have escaped, so I can't determine if the information has been transmitted out.
So we have to act quickly. Our target is these guys' lair, their leader, they must pay the price for this.
And the person who knows where their lair is, now only you know, Shisui."
"No problem!" Shisui nodded seriously, he was also burning with anger: "There is indeed someone who must pay for tonight's events!"
....
"So, you're saying that the guy Uchiha Itachi has already failed?"
Inside the Root base, Danzo looked at the Root ninja who was half kneeling in front of him. His expression was still indifferent, but his heart was full of anger.
Uchiha Itachi possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, and he said that he had found outside help, and this is the result?
Danzo felt that he should not have agreed to Hiruzen's proposal to let Uchiha Itachi go in alone, but should have let the members of Root go in together to solve this trouble.
Taking a deep breath, Danzo spoke: "Let the people on the outside go in. The Uchiha clan must be annihilated tonight!"
"Danzo-sama, we are unable to contact the people on the outside." The Root ninja's head was bowed very low, and his voice seemed weak: "After they transmitted the information, we lost contact with them."
This answer finally changed the ice-cold expression on Danzo's face. He couldn't be clearer about what being unable to establish contact means.
Perhaps they are unable to respond due to battle, or perhaps they have already been annihilated!
Taking a deep breath, Danzo forcefully stabilized his emotions, but just as he was about to speak, a huge roar suddenly rang out.
A blistering heat was conveyed from the air vents, and the whole Root base at this moment seemed as if it were placed in a steam furnace.
"Danzo-sama!"
Soon, a Root ninja rushed over. He quickly knelt down and spoke in a low voice to Danzo Shimura.
"Enemy attack, it's the Uchiha clan, they've attacked!"
"Uchiha....."
Danzo's face darkened even more upon hearing these words. The fact that these guys have attacked implies that the Root personnel stationed around the Uchiha are probably not in a good situation.
He now harbors even more resentment towards Uchiha Itachi. He didn't seize the Mangekyou Sharingan that Itachi left behind, partly because he wasn't quite sure about this guy's abilities.
And the other, and most important reason, is that he needed Uchiha Itachi to turn against the Uchiha using this pair of Mangekyou.
As a result, this guy, with the help he brought, couldn't even deal with an Uchiha who only had one pair of Mangekyou. He really regrets now leaving this pair of eyes to such a waste like Uchiha Itachi.
"Inform the Hokage, the Uchiha have betrayed Konoha, activate the highest emergency defense plan, all Root personnel including reserves are to be mobilized, stop these guys."
Despite the rage filling his heart, Danzo calmly issued his orders. He picked up his cane and spoke in a deep voice.
"I'll wait in the guard room for the outcome, don't disappoint me."
"I'm afraid you're going to be very disappointed."
Just then, a voice suddenly interrupted Danzo's words, and the voice made Danzo frown.
Turning his head, he saw a young Uchiha ninja standing before him, holding a ninja sword in his hand. The eerie patterns in his scarlet eyes were slowly rotating.
Mangekyou Sharingan?
Danzo naturally recognized who this person was. He was an Uchiha prodigy who had once been named along with Shisui, but more importantly, he recognized what those eyes were.
For a moment, he didn't quite know how to react. Why would this Uchiha Kaito have such eyes?
Suddenly it seemed as if he understood something. The reason Uchiha Itachi failed, could it be because the Uchiha clan had more than one pair of Mangekyou Sharingan?
Thinking of this, Danzo felt a sinking feeling in his heart. Yet as he felt this sinking feeling, his gaze towards Kaito's eyes became somewhat greedy.
He had been able to restrain himself from taking Itachi's eyes, but now he truly couldn't resist seizing the eyes before him.
Especially since this young man had charged in alone!
