Chapter 355: The low hum of the disemboweled yellow bird rushed to the brothers

~7 min read 1,233 words

Swoosh~~~

As several sounds of breaking through the air sounded, several dark figures suddenly appeared where Senju Rope Tree had just left.

These people were all members of the Root that Danzo had placed in the Land of Rivers more than a year ago to monitor Senju Rope Tree at any time.

"Senju Seito is dead..."

"We have checked and there is no Konoha raiding team nearby."

"What should we do? Should we take action?"

"You know, that brat has been poisoned by the Sand Village's special toxin. If it takes a while... until the toxin spreads to the brat's whole body, even if we take the brat back... I'm afraid it won't work."

Below, several members of the Root kept flickering their eyes, some indifferent, some excited... some hesitant.

"Hey, are we really going to do something to that brat?"

"After all, he is a member of the Senju clan, and he has the blood of the first generation flowing in his body."

"Turtle, do you know what you are talking about?"

"Don't forget your identity, you are now a member of the root, and the only person you have to be loyal to is Danzo-sama."

"For the root, Danzo-sama's orders... are absolute."

"Listen to my orders, kill that brat, and take away all the body tissues of that brat that are not infected by the toxin..."

"Be careful, don't leave any traces, and it's best to blame everything... on the Sand Village."

When Danzo was mentioned, the eyes of the accompanying root members sank, and gradually threw away the confusion in their hearts and became firm.

...

Because of the spread of the toxin, Senju Rope Tree is now unable to use chakra...

Everything, relying only on the physical strength that is about to run out, and the strong desire to survive... is forcibly hanging the tense nerves.

Boom~~~

While stumbling, Senju Rope Tree once again triggered the trap set by the Sand Ninja. The hot breath, under the terrifying air wave, swept Senju Rope Tree dozens of meters away... directly broke several wrist-thick trees before falling to the ground.

"Ahem~"

"No, I... must not fall here again."

"Otherwise, Brother Xingdou's sacrifice will be in vain... I must go back alive."

"Become stronger, stronger... until you are like your grandfather..."

"Tsk~ That's a good ambition, but... you regret it too late."

Just when Senju Rope Tree had just stood up with all his strength, several members of the root had already caught up... took a look at the place where the detonating talisman had just ravaged, and walked straight towards Senju Rope Tree.

"You... who are you?"

"Also, what do you mean by what you just said?"

Looking at the several Root members in black robes in front of him, Senju Nawaki's face darkened, and he took out a kunai from his ninja tool bag, slowly leaned against the tree trunk beside him, and took a defensive posture.

"If someone appears here at this time, it's not to save you... then it's to kill you."

"Senju Nawaki, your time... is up."

While speaking, one of the Root members, with his hands glowing light blue, walked quickly towards Senju Nawaki.

As for the kunai in Senju Nawaki's hand, which was tempered with cold light, it seemed to be just a ridiculous toy in the eyes of several Root members.

"Who are you guys...?"

"Who gave you the courage to rob my Sand Village of prey...?"

Just as the Root member was about to take action, several rapid air-breaking sounds suddenly sounded, and more than a dozen sharp kunai suddenly appeared.Like rain, it shot at... several members of the Root.

Ding~ Ding~

"The ninjas of the Sand Village... are they so fast?"

After shooting down the kunai shot by the Sand Village ninjas, the eyes of the members of the Root gradually darkened.

The people in front of them were not the other Sand Village teams that came after hearing the news, but the three Sand Ninjas who came after killing the Thousand Hands Seidou.

"Akabee, you continue to deal with that kid, and the others... follow me to deal with these Sand Ninjas."

"Want to deal with us?"

"It depends on whether you have the ability to do so? Don't forget... now the country of Kawano is the home ground of our Sand Village."

...

"Ah~ one after another, it turns out that there are so many people eyeing the Thousand Hands Rope Tree?"

"How about it? Should we take action and get rid of all these people?"

Under the canopy not far away, a black shadow was carefully watching the scene below. Seeing that the two forces were fighting for the Thousand Hands Rope Tree, his tone was full of surprise.

"Asshole, I told you not to do unnecessary things... We just need to wait until the end and reap the benefits."

"If I'm not mistaken, those black-robed people should be members of the Konoha Root..."

"Those three Sand Ninjas can't beat these cold-blooded guys."

"Root?"

"Tsk~ This is really interesting! Sure enough, the internal fighting in Konoha... has never stopped."

...

Under the gaze of the black shadow, the battle between the Root and the Sand Ninjas also came to an end.

In the battle with Senju Seito, the Sand Ninja elite jonin had already consumed a lot of chakra...

Facing the joint efforts of the elite Root team, there was no possibility of winning.

Until the moment when he was pierced in the heart by one of the Root members, the Sand Ninja elite jonin still had not guessed... the identity of the enemies in front of him.

"Akabee, are you done?"

"Almost, wait for me for another half a minute."

After confirming that the three Sand Ninjas were indeed dead, the other Root members slowly walked towards Akabane.

In the past few minutes, Senju Nawaki had been killed by Akabane... The scarlet scar spread from the Adam's apple to the back of the neck.

Because most of Senju Nawaki's skin was infected by the toxins of the Sand Village, Akabane directly dug open Senju Nawaki's chest, soaked all the organs in the abdomen in the special liquid prepared earlier, and then sealed them in the scroll.

"Okay, everything is done..."

Holding the scroll in his hand, Akabane looked at the body in front of him... which was riddled with holes by his own cutting.

A strong sense of guilt suddenly rose in his heart.

If the first and second generations were still there, they would definitely tear him in half... and destroy the family behind him.

"Let's go, we just made quite a commotion... We can't stay here any longer."

"Hehe~ Where are you going?"

Just after several Root members faked the scene of Senju Nawaki's murder and pointed all the spearheads at the Sand Village.

The figure hidden in the dark finally moved.

When several Root members turned their heads to look, they felt... the world was spinning in front of them, and the whole person seemed to fly in the air.

Then, he completely lost consciousness and fell into endless darkness.

"We will accept Senju Nawaki's cells."

"...With these things, it will probably help that adult live a few more years, right?"

The strong wind swept, exuding an endless smell of blood. Amid the whispers, the black shadow standing in place disappeared again without a trace.
