My Hokage can't be an undercover agent

A cold light flashed in front of the Kirigakure ninja. In the flash of lightning, the tip of Danzo's knife had penetrated straight into the heart of the Kirigakure Jonin, nailing him to the tree.

"Cough...cough"

Blood foam continued to spurt from the Kirigakure's mouth. Looking at Danzo in front of him, the Kirigakure Jonin's heart was filled with despair.

How. . .how come

How could it come so quickly?

As if seeing the confusion in the Kiri ninja's eyes, Danzo spoke softly.

"You must be wondering. If I am fast enough to catch up with you, why did my first sneak attack fail? Then I was completely suppressed by you in a single battle."

"It's simple."

Having said this, Danzo pointed his finger at the direction the Kiri Ninja was escaping from.

"Look"

The Mist Ninja tried hard to turn his head, but he was pinned to the tree by Danzo. Even if he gathered all his strength, he couldn't turn around at all.

Looking at the Kiri ninja's appearance, Danzo nonchalantly took out a lollipop from his bag, peeled off the candy wrapper and stuffed it into his mouth.

After finishing the action, looking at the Kirigakure Jōnin whose eyes were about to burst into flames, Danzo gave a complete explanation.

"Don't worry, it's just courtesy."

"Since you can't see what's going on over there, I'll just tell you."

Danzo's face was now close to that of the Kirigakure ninja, just as the Kirigakure ninja had done to Danzo who was trapped in the Water Prison Jutsu a few minutes ago.

"I never said that I only created two shadow clones."

Hearing Danzo's words, the Kiri ninja couldn't help but widen his eyes.

That's it

This Konoha ninja didn't catch up from behind me at all. He was ambushing me here early in the morning.

The one in Water Prison Jutsu. . .Is he also a shadow clone?

But here, the Kirigakure Jonin couldn't figure it out again.

But how did he hide it from my perception. . .

"But, how did I hide it from your perception, right?"

Hearing Danzo say what he was thinking, the face of the Kirigakure jounin was filled with horror.

"Don't worry about it."

Seeing the over-the-top performance of the Kirin ninja, Danzo quickly tried to comfort him without any intention of success.

Really, no wonder the villains in anime always have to explain their plans to the protagonist.

It turns out that no one understands that it is really hard to hold things back.

Yes, at this moment, Danzo decided to make the same mistake as all the great villains in anime:

Introduce your plan to your opponent in full

"Water Release Kirigakure no Jutsu is a ninjutsu that creates thick fog to obscure the sight of both the enemy and ourselves."

"When you used this ninjutsu and then used kunai to shoot me from all directions, I was thinking: How did you judge my position?"

"It's the sound"

"But if it's a sound, why don't you go and kill the shadow clone I created that deliberately made the sound, but instead come and kill me who turned into a squirrel?"

"It's the smell"

"Indeed, if it is a shadow clone, there is really no way to simulate the smell of the original owner's clothes."

"But the problem is: if you really only judge my position by smell, how could you not cut me into a squirrel in half with the first blow?"

"Similarly, hearing is the same."

After saying this for a while, Danzo put the lollipop in his hand back into his mouth.

After holding it in his mouth for a while, looking at the mist ninja in front of him who seemed to be unable to hold on any longer, Danzo began to speak again.

"Sight, smell, hearing, this way of perception, there are really too many ways to avoid it."

"So I think you must be using chakra type perception."

The correctness of his judgment was clear from the surprised look in Kirigakure Jōnin's eyes, and Danzo raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

"It seems right..."

"We assume your perception is chakra type, but there's another problem."

"In the thick fog filled with chakra, even the Uchiha clan cannot accurately distinguish the difference between fog and people. How did you, a fog ninja, accurately sense my location?"

At this point, Danzo bit the candy ball in his mouth with a "pop" sound, chewed the unmelted candy into pieces, and swallowed it.

At the same time, his speaking speed also began to speed up.

"is the location"

"In dense fog, it is absolutely impossible to accurately determine the enemy's position by relying solely on chakra scanning."

"But location is a three-dimensional thing."

“In addition to the vertical axis, we also have the horizontal axis.”

"In other words, your perception does not rely on chakra scanning, but relies on the ground."

"By conducting one's own chakra on the ground, and at the same time determining its position based on the feedback from the object where the chakra exists."

"But the disadvantage of this detection method is that you cannot know the exact height of the enemy on the opposite side."

"You can only judge the height of the knife based on your previous observations of my figure and your own guesses."

"This is also the reason why you didn't kill me when I turned into a squirrel with your first knife."

At this moment, Danzo lowered his head again, facing the Kirin ninja whose lips had turned white, and said coldly:

"That's right, Kirigakure's Jonin"

"Ha ha ha ha"

After hearing Danzo's words, the Kiri ninja, who was already on his deathbed, actually laughed.

That's it, my perception was temporarily blocked through detonating symbols and smoke bombs.

Then in that short period of time, three shadow clones were separated, and the main body was hidden.

"But how can you guarantee that the position of your body will not be perceived by me?"

Looking at the Kirigakure Jōnin who seemed to be determined to die in peace if he didn't tell the truth, Danzo vaguely felt a little compassion for him.

"What you use is chakra type perception. To escape your perception, I only need to,"

"Just don't extract chakra"

Danzo's words reached the ears of the Kirin ninja, and the shock in his mind was no less than a thunderbolt from the blue.

"No, not extracting chakra..."

How could it be possible that as a ninja, he would choose to give up refining chakra and instead use pure methods to complete the killing?

"On the basis of arranging subordinate No. 2 to act as a backup, he actually adopted such a precise and bold fighting method..."

"Are all the ninjas of Konoha monsters?"

Seeing the mist ninja across from him so shocked, Danzo's playfulness grew again.

"what did you say"

"This is a battle."

"It's a battle where both sides risk their lives. Once they fail, there will be nothing left."

At this point, Danzo's playfulness gradually faded, and his tone began to become serious.

"If you fail, you will lose your life."

"So in order not to die or lose everything, I prepare desperately..."

“Isn’t that what everyone does?”
