I started my horror resurgence from Naruto

Chapter 25 The truth is not important, the malice that lurks in the dark

root.

Just as its name suggests, hidden underground in Konoha is a dark place where sunlight cannot penetrate, and the air is filled with an eerie and damp smell.

All you can see are winding corridors, rotten and peeling walls, and rusty pipes, which are like the intestines that transport filth in the human body. They are always working but silently excreting the "dirty waste" produced by Konoha's huge body into the underground where there is no sunlight.

And in the deepest part of the ground, where all the filth and dirt gather, is the core of the root - the secret residence of Danzo Shimura.

Anju means: the residence of darkness in the ninja world.

Judging from the display layout in the room, it is exactly the same as the Hokage's office. Even the clothes hanger is wearing the same divine robe as Sarutobi Hiruzen, except for the slight difference in color, one is white and the other is ink-colored.

visible,

Shimura Danzo's evil ambitions are obvious.

now,

The old man, half of his body wrapped in bandages all year round, with only one cloudy eye exposed, was staring at the order document issued by the Hokage on the table with a gloomy and angry look.

The document points to a serial murder case that occurred in Konoha Village last night.

The death of four ninja school graduates was a trivial matter in Danzo Shimura's eyes and was not worth the Root's investigation at all. You know, the Root usually deals with a series of high-profile tasks such as rebellion, assassination, alienation, genocide, terrorism, coup d'état, etc., which would easily result in the death of a large number of people.

What's more, Sarutobi Hiruzen has always hated the Root interfering in the village's internal affairs. But in the past two days, he has been acting out of character and has quickly assigned two important incidents that occurred in the village to the Root for handling.

"There was an attack on Hyuga, the suspect points to the eighth person of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist Village; there was a serial murder, the clue points to the illusion murder... hehe~"

Danzo Shimura almost instinctively smelled a strong scent of conspiracy. He could fully imagine the malicious smirk on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face when he signed the order. He rubbed his eyes in anger, as if he could already see two shit pots flying straight towards him "rain or shine".

"Why do you put the blame on me without even thinking when something happens? Just because Sarutobi Hiruzen is the Hokage, he can do whatever he wants?" Shimura Danzo was so angry that black smoke came out of his forehead.

"What do you think about the Hokage handing over these two matters to the Root?" Danzo Shimura suddenly asked.

The Root Ninja who was completely integrated into the darkness in the corner thought for a while and replied softly: "The Hokage may be suspecting that you, Lord Danzo, are behind these two incidents. This is forcing you to prove your innocence."

Shimura Danzo sneered: "The most difficult thing in this world is to prove one's innocence. Otherwise, Hatake Sakumo would not have committed suicide, and the Uchiha clan would not have been forced to the point of extinction step by step."

As an absolutely loyal Root Ninja who had been planted with the Mark of the Tongue, he obviously knew the true inside story of some old events, but he still could not respond to what Shimura Danzo had just said.

"The truth never matters. People only see what they want to see and believe what they want to believe."

Danzo Shimura has taken a lot of blame over the years, and he has accumulated some experience on how to "pass the buck", but he must never blindly follow Sarutobi Hiruzen's rhythm, otherwise, he will definitely end up with mud in his crotch - which is shit at least.

"It's difficult to find the real murderer in a short time. I know our Sandaime Hokage. He won't give the Root too much time. So, what the Root has to do next is not to dig out the truth and catch the real murderer, but..." Shimura Danzo swept the case materials on the table into the trash can, his tone full of viciousness and unquestionable, "Put the real murderer that people want to see in front of them as quickly as possible."

The Root Ninja was thoughtful. He admired Shimura Danzo's idea, which was worthy of being the way to break the darkness of the ninja world. "So, Master Shimura, who do you think is the real culprit that people want to see in these two incidents?"

Shimura Danzo gave a quiet answer: "Let's talk about the Hyuga family first. As the only remaining powerful family in Konoha, wouldn't the grudges and hatreds hidden behind that door, which are unknown to outsiders, arouse more interest than the inexplicable eighth person of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?"

"Yes, the people in the village have always been curious about the gossip about the wealthy families. Besides, the Hyuga clan leader insisted to the Hokage that the attack was caused by the appearance of an eighth person among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist. Just based on a unique sword that has never been seen before, he forcibly speculated that the Seven Ninja Swordsmen actually hid an eighth person. No matter how you think about it, it seems to be an attempt to cover up something." The Root ninja nodded in agreement.

"The Hyuga clan's story about the caged bird has always been covered up and kept secret in the village. There are too many people who want to know the story behind it, so the first real murderer will naturally surface." Shimura Danzo paused and wrote a line of names in the air with his hand.

The Root Ninja's eyes lit up: "Got it!"

"As for the second case of murder by illusion, the one that people most easily associate with it is naturally..." Shimura Danzo's malice towards the Uchiha clan did not slacken even when the clan was nearly wiped out, "an orphan of a famous family who yearns for power and revenge - Uchiha Sasuke."

The air seemed to become even colder. Compared to the first name that Danzo wrote down, this second name was obviously more important and more topical.

"If I remember correctly, these four students who were killed by the illusion should be in the same grade as Uchiha Sasuke." asked Danzo Shimura.

"Same grade, same classmate." For some reason, the Root has never relaxed its surveillance on Uchiha Sasuke, and he gave a definite answer at the first time.

"Back then, Uchiha Itachi brutally killed his entire clan in order to test his own ability. Now, his only son, Dodo, has reached the age to graduate from the ninja school, so he brutally killed four classmates to test his own talent, hoping to catch up with his elder brothers in this way. What an amazing cycle of history!" Danzo Shimura used extremely cold words to describe a story full of fate.

Yes,

Who can refuse to believe in this kind of fateful cycle?

The Root Ninja trembled all over as he listened, with an inexplicable boiling of blood, even though he knew in his heart that these were all false official stories. However, the people in this world were fascinated by this kind of tragic story full of fate from the bottom of their hearts, as beautiful as gorgeous cherry blossoms withering in flames.

"Go ahead and spread the seeds of rumors first." Shimura Danzo waved his hand.

"Hey!" The Root Ninja took the order and left.

"Huruzen, I know you want the Sharingan that I have collected, but you don't know that the Sharingan alone is not enough, I also want a living Uchiha~" Shimura Danzo looked at the black-stained divine robe on the hanger and showed a deep smile.

more than,

There is also a Hyuga family member who can be dragged into the roots~

Shimura Danzo had a strong premonition: "I will win this time!!!"
