13: Chapter 13: Relics from Four Generations? Using Someone Else to Do Murder!Ryoma Aburame and the others were taken aback by the flippant invitation, but their professionalism allowed them to regain their composure in a fraction of a second.
"Take it down."
Ryoma Aburame's voice was devoid of any warmth.
At his command, a black tide suddenly surged from his wide sleeves.
Those were thousands upon thousands of nanoscale parasitic insects, emitting a faint, almost inaudible buzzing sound that instantly filled the entire room.
At the same time, another member of the Root behind him formed a hand seal and spat out a mouthful of purple poisonous mist.The mist spread silently, and wherever it passed, even the walls began to sizzle, clearly having a strong nerve paralysis and corrosive effect.
The space was sealed off, and the enemy was subdued in an instant.
This is a capture procedure they have practiced countless times.
However, the next second, all the members of the Root froze.
Those venomous insects, capable of devouring an ancient summoning beast in three seconds, seemed to have hit an invisible wall when they approached within a meter of Naruto's body.Their flight became incredibly slow, and then all the flapping of their wings stopped.
They lost all vitality, like dust dampened by rain, falling to the ground with a crackling sound, piling up into a thin layer of black.
The poisonous fog, powerful enough to melt steel, was also forcibly solidified in the same spot, unable to advance even an inch.The purple fog was stretched and twisted, and finally decomposed and dissipated into nothingness under an invisible force.
[Unlimited Techniques]
The absolute power of "stopping".
"This…" Shan Zhongfeng's breath caught in his throat; he had never seen such a bizarre sight before.
Hyuga Tokugawa's Byakugan was already activated.In his vision, the space in front of Naruto was in an extremely distorted form, where all chakra and matter were infinitely stretched, forming an absolutely insurmountable domain.
"That's so rude."
Naruto sighed and put down the instant noodle bowl in his hand.
He took a small scroll out of his pocket, and then, under the horrified gazes of the four men, gently crushed it.
"When guests come, we have to find a decent place to entertain them."
[Confirmed consumption of 10,000 Glory Points to exchange for a one-time high-level illusion scroll - Illusion of the Realm.]
boom!
An irresistible mental shock instantly swept through the minds of the four people.
The scene before my eyes suddenly changed.
The cramped and cozy apartment has vanished, replaced by a cold, damp stone dungeon that reeks of blood and decay.
The walls were covered with all sorts of instruments of torture they were all too familiar with: bloodstained chains, twisted branding irons, and devices specifically designed for mental torture.
This is the deepest interrogation room of the "Root" organization.
But the blond boy, Naruto Uzumaki, had vanished without a trace.
"What's going on!" Aburame Ryoma was shocked and furious.He immediately realized that they had been under a spell, but the spell was terrifyingly real, even the unique musty smell in the air was exactly the same.
Just as they were in the midst of the chaos, a golden flash suddenly streaked across the center of the room without warning!
The beam of light was incredibly fast, yet it left a clear and deep imprint on everyone's retina.
Hyuga Tokugawa's Byakugan saw it most clearly.It was an extremely complex jutsu mark that lingered in the air for less than a hundredth of a second, yet it exuded a chakra that he had only ever felt on historical scrolls and memorial tablets—the chakra of that legendary hero.
Minato Namikaze.
The golden mark vanished in an instant, leaving nothing behind, yet it seemed as if everything had already been left behind.
A terrifying conclusion formed simultaneously in the minds of the four Root Elites.
The mission failed.
The target was rescued by a mysterious and powerful individual who possessed the Flying Thunder God Technique.
And this illusion, this illusion that perfectly replicates the torture chamber of the base, means one thing.
The location of the base has been completely exposed by that golden marker!
This is a top-level mistake, a massive disaster that could plunge the entire "root" into a crisis of destruction!
Just as the four were chilled to the bone by the sudden turn of events and the impending punishment, a figure leaning on a cane slowly emerged from the shadows of the torture chamber.
Danzo Shimura.
His face was taut, and his single eye was brewing a storm powerful enough to freeze the soul.
"waste."
The voice of the phantom "Danzo" was exactly the same as they remembered, cold and cruel.
He looked at his four most elite subordinates and, in a tone devoid of any emotion, issued the "Root's" highest command.
"Eliminate all traces."
"Including yourselves."
This command, through the curse mark deep within their souls, transformed into an absolute law that could not be defied.
Ryoma Aburame's body began to tremble uncontrollably, not from resistance, but from extreme fear.
He tried to beg for mercy, but the "Tongue Curse Seal" on his tongue had already begun to take effect, and a numbing force prevented him from uttering a single syllable.
He could only watch helplessly as his body, against his own will, began to reverse the flow of chakra throughout his body, preparing to self-destruct.
The same applies to the other three.
In their extreme fear and despair, the curse seals erupted in full force, their bodily functions were forcibly destroyed, and their life force was drained in an instant.
Thump.
Thump.
Four corpses fell almost simultaneously onto the cold, illusory ground, each believing, even in death, that they had taken their own lives to protect the organization's secrets.
[Ding!You have received 8000 units of ultimate [Fear] from Aburame Ryoma!]
[Ding!You have received 7500 units of the ultimate [Despair] from the mountain wind!]
[Ding!You have received 7800 units of the ultimate [unwillingness] from Hyuga Tokugawa!]
[Ding!You have received 7000 units of ultimate [Regret] from a root member!]
[Shadow Points increased by 30,300!]
On the roof of an apartment building in the next block.
The night breeze ruffled her golden hair.
Naruto Uzumaki held the bowl of instant noodles, which had already cooled down a bit, and finished the last sip of soup.
He coldly stared at the apartment building below, where the illusion barrier was slowly dissipating, and four corpses appeared out of thin air in the original room, and everything returned to deathly silence.
His plan was a complete success.
Using the rules of "roots" to kill those who are "roots".
Almost at the same time.
Deep beneath Konoha, in Danzo's secret base, a piercing alarm suddenly blared.A ninja responsible for surveillance scrambled into Danzo's room, his voice trembling with fear: "Lord Danzo!The Aburame Ryoma squad.all four members' vital signs vanished at the same time!"
Danzo suddenly stood up, and the teacup in front of him was crushed into dust by an invisible force.
at the same time.
In the Third Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi was preparing to rest.
Bang!
An ANBU member appeared before him in an instant, kneeling on one knee, his tone more urgent than ever before.
"Third Hokage!Urgent intelligence!Unidentified signs of a battle have been discovered near Naruto Uzumaki's apartment, along with a fleeting."
The ANBU ninja paused, seemingly considering the word that even he himself couldn't believe.
"A golden chakra mark that resembles that of the Fourth Hokage!"
Snap.
The pipe that Hiruzen Sarutobi had been holding slipped from his lips and fell to the ground.
