"Do it!"
The other three root members jumped out in a flash.
"Lord Danzo does not trust me after all."
A muttered to himself.
A offered no resistance and allowed one of them to tie him up.
The remaining three jumped into the cave, presumably to go find Kakashi.
"Hey, tell me, how could you cheat like that?"
A's eyes were vacant, revealing neither joy nor sorrow, only a low, retorting question:
"Hey, I really don't understand the point of missions that involve killing our own people, so I gave up."
Upon hearing this, Yi flew into a rage: "A task assigned by Lord Danzo is of paramount importance!"
"But Kakashi is also a Konoha ninja, our comrade. Can you really bring yourself to do that?"
B suddenly shoved A to the ground and roared:
"You remember this: here, your only companions are us, our own people from the Root Organization!"
A gritted his teeth and said in a hard voice:
"Doesn't Root also serve Konoha?"
B's expression was as devout as that of a believer...
"The roots are like the unseen root system under a big tree, silently supporting the leaf tree."
"A tree has above-ground and underground parts, and its roots naturally form a unique whole."
"The Root ninjas are nameless, faceless, loveless, hateless, have no past, have no future, and only have missions in their eyes."
A suddenly began to struggle desperately:
"No! I am a Konoha ninja! I am not just a part of the root, I have branches and leaves, I am a part of the whole Konoha!"
"All the ninjas of Konoha are my comrades!"
B's eyes were like ice, suppressing A:
"Who on earth gave you that mind-control potion?! I have to take you back and let Lord Danzo give you a good brainwashing!"
"Ha... Who else but Danzo could bewitch him!"
A melodious voice drifted in from somewhere.
"who!"
Yi was so startled that he broke out in a cold sweat, completely unaware that someone was approaching.
"Well!"
Before B could turn around, a sharp pain shot through his head, and he instantly collapsed to the ground.
"Get up."
As Kawasaki spoke, he loosened the restraints on Armor.
"you are?"
A didn't recognize Kawasaki, but recognized the Uchiha symbol from his attire.
"My name is Uchiha Kawasaki."
Kawasaki said calmly, while pondering whether he should go down to rescue Kakashi.
Perhaps, it would be better to just have the Root people gouge out his Sharingan.
"You're the vice-head of the Uchiha clan?! Why did you save me?"
He had heard of Uchiha Kawasaki's reputation; he had given Danzo a lot of trouble and recently even caused Danzo to lose his position as an advisor.
"As for me, I just love to go against Danzo's wishes. Who you are is not important."
"but..."
Kawasaki's lips curled slightly: "I actually know some things about you."
"What do you know about me?"
"Weren't you one of the sixty babies Danzo stole back then?"
"what!"
A was startled!
"Lord Danzo stole it?!"
Kawasaki nodded:
"Yes, Danzo stole you out, and Orochimaru was in charge of using you for experiments. Now it looks like you're the only one left."
A questioned agitatedly: "What evidence do you have?!"
Kawasaki raised his eyes slightly:
"I have my own sources of information and I don't intend to verify it for you. Believe it or not is up to you."
"Over the years, Danzo has been recruiting people everywhere, using the pretext of protecting Konoha to realize his own selfish desires."
"this..."
A was shocked. The person he had pledged allegiance to was actually this kind of person?!
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle..."
The shrill cries of a thousand birds echoed from the cave.
"Oh no! Brother Kakashi!"
Only then did A realize that Kakashi was still trapped down there.
Just as he was about to rush towards the cave entrance, Kawasaki stopped him:
"Don't worry, he'll be up soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kakashi leaped out of the cave.
Kawasaki immediately noticed that Kakashi's Sharingan was unharmed, and although he had some injuries, he was fine.
He scoffed inwardly.
Danzo's Root is truly useless; they couldn't even handle a three-on-one fight. Do they even know how to play?
Kakashi jumped out of the cave and found Uchiha Kawasaki standing at the edge of the cave.
Immediately assume a fighting stance:
"Lord Kawasaki, what are you doing here?!"
Even though it was regrettable, Kawasaki didn't intend to take Kakashi's Sharingan directly.
"You all hurry and go find the Third Hokage, Danzo's men are almost here."
Kawasaki didn't answer Kakashi. He left those words behind, then vanished in a flash.
"Kakashi-nii! Are you alright?!"
A quickly went forward to check on Kakashi's condition.
Kakashi staggered slightly:
"It's nothing. Why is Kawasaki here?"
A helps Kakashi up:
"We shouldn't linger here. Let's go find the Third Hokage. We can discuss it further on the way."
Chapter 45 Obito! Kawasaki's strength is too great!
Inside the Hokage Building.
"It was Danzo who did this!"
The Third Hokage was somewhat surprised, though he tacitly accepted Danzo's research.
But he was completely unaware at first that sixty babies from Konoha had been kidnapped.
This incident caused a huge uproar in Konoha. It can be said that Orochimaru's defection was the biggest crime he committed!
When Orochimaru defected, he essentially took the blame for his own actions.
Unexpectedly, Kawasaki said that Danzo was the mastermind, considering Danzo's actions in recent years.
Very likely!
In the end, Danzo declared the experiment a failure, and the matter was closed.
Surprisingly, some people survived that experiment.
Danzo is hiding armor; his intentions are sinister!
"A, can you use Wood Release?"
A nodded, formed a hand seal, and his arms transformed into wooden sticks.
The three generations nodded in satisfaction.
"Although your origins were a conspiracy, cultivating Wood Release ninjas has always been Konoha's wish. Since you possess Wood Release, you shouldn't be hiding in Root."
"The Jinchuriki's child is already five years old, and the Wood Release sealing technique is becoming increasingly important to the village. Kagami, would you like to join the Konoha Anbu?"
Person A looked at Kakashi, who gave him an encouraging look:
"I am now in the Anbu, serving Konoha."
A nodded: "Third Boss, I'm willing to join the Anbu. A was my codename in Root, you can call me..."
Kakashi tilted his head: "Tenzo?"
A paused for a moment, then burst into laughter:
"Yes, my name is Tianzang."
