Naruto: Start with three magatama and cultivate Kushina
Chapter 182: The Will of the Root, the Hokage can only do what he says
Ten minutes had passed since the agreed time of ten o'clock. Just when Shimura Danzo was getting impatient and was getting up to go home after get off work, his subordinates informed him of the news that Uchiha Ryuun had arrived at the Root.
Danzo Shimura suppressed his anger and sat back in his chair.
Soon, Liuyun, under the guidance of a Root ninja, entered a relatively closed room and met the Root leader - Danzo Shimura.
To be honest, Liuyun hated this kind of environment because he felt insecure in the root base. He understood that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, but he had no choice but to come tonight.
If a real fight breaks out in a place like this, it would be difficult for Liuyun to even run away with his current strength. There are no trash ninjas in the Root, and almost every one of them is an elite selected from hundreds.
The reason why Liuyun dared to come tonight was mainly because he knew that Danzo would not touch him at this juncture.
"Greetings, Master Danzo..."
Liuyun took the initiative to bow and salute.
"Not only did you beat up my people, but you also exceeded the time you set. Is this our Konoha hero? Isn't that a bit too domineering?"
Danzo spoke expressionlessly, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry in his voice, but it was obvious that what he said was not a good thing.
"Feel sorry……"
Liuyun lowered his head slightly and admitted his mistake readily, but had no intention of explaining.
Danzo looked at him coldly, but Liuyun's eyes were motionless, and no one knew what he was looking at. Both sides were silent for a long time, and the scene fell into an eerie silence.
"Do you know what kind of organization the Root is?"
Danzo asked calmly after a long silence.
"I know..." Liuyun nodded slightly.
"Oh? Then tell me about it." There was a slight change of emotion in Danzo's tone.
"Konoha is like a healthy tree, the villagers are like the leaves of the tree, the ninjas are the branches of the tree, the Hokage is the trunk of the tree, and the roots... are equivalent to the root system of the tree."
"The roots cannot see the light, but a healthy tree cannot be without roots hidden underground to absorb nutrients."
Hearing these remarks, Danzo couldn't help but nodded slightly, obviously very satisfied with Liuyun's remarks.
Danzo was sure that no one would ever say such a thing to him, not even the Hokage, but this young man had such a 'deep' understanding of the Root that Danzo felt that this man must recognize the Root.
"The so-called Root is Konoha's most important underground organization. What Konoha ninjas can do, Root ninjas can do. What Konoha ninjas cannot do, Root ninjas can do too..."
"They hide their identities, do many things that ordinary people hate, silently dedicate themselves to Konoha but are not understood by others. They are a group of people who are willing to hide in the darkness and 'carry the burden forward'. They are the 'lifeline of the tree' who are truly doing practical things for Konoha. This... is the root!"
After these words were spoken, Liuyun and Danzo both got goosebumps on their bodies.
Liuyun got goosebumps because he disgusted himself...
Danzo got goosebumps because... he believed Liuyun's brilliant remarks praising the Root!
Danzo originally wanted to ask what kind of organization the Ryuun Root was, and then explain to him the nature of the Root organization and its greatness, and then invite him to join it.
However, Liuyun's understanding of the root was even more profound than that of him, the founder of the root.
If such a person joins the Root, there is no need to brainwash him. Danzo can easily control such a person...
"Who told you these words?" The suspicious Danzo couldn't help but ask.
"???"
Liuyun showed a puzzled look on his face, but he silently complained in his heart: This is what the 5.5th generation Guoying in the original work told me.
"Who would tell me this? This is of course my own idea. Konoha has the 'Will of Fire' on the surface, but also the 'Will of Roots' in secret. These two wills, one bright and one dark, complement each other, which is why Konoha is so strong today!"
"Crack, crack, crack..."
Liuyun's heartfelt words made Danzo couldn't help but applaud.
"You are the first person who can truly understand me. You are also the only one who can comprehend the Will of the Root without directly touching it!"
"Your words make me feel very comforted. Come and help me...child!"
Danzo said, directly extending the invitation.
"..."
Liuyun was silent for a moment.
"What? You don't want to join the Root? Are you kidding me with what you just said?" Danzo frowned and his eyes turned cold.
"Do you think I'm making it up?" Liuyun glanced at him and asked back.
"Then why don't you want to join the Root?"
Danzo actually didn't think that these words were a joke on him, or that they were made up to please him.
Insightful words are all well thought out. Words that are made up on the spot will definitely be problematic. In Danzo's eyes, Liuyun's words have already interpreted the "will of the root". He must have some understanding of the root and agree with it.
"It's not that I don't want to, but I can't..." Liuyun said with an embarrassed look.
"reason?"
Danzo spoke succinctly.
"With my abilities and current reputation, I am not suitable to stay in the Root for development. My role is more suitable to be played on the front battlefield. Besides, the Third Hokage will not allow me to join the Root..."
Liuyun spoke calmly and even used the person that Shimura Danzo least wanted to hear from as a shield.
"Why do you need the Hokage's permission to join my Root? If I say you can do it, then you can." Danzo said in a deep voice, suppressing his anger.
"I am the grand-disciple of the Third Hokage after all. I cannot join the Root without informing him first, right? People will say I am disrespectful to my elders."
"Of course, if the Third Hokage allows me to join the Root, then I can come to report to you at any time. After all, it doesn't matter where I do my work. The Root and the Anbu are both core organizations serving Konoha. It doesn't matter to me where they are..."
Liuyun said this with a hidden and sinister smile. It was clear that he was saying:
How can your authority be compared to the Hokage's? If you want to transfer people, you must first get the Hokage's consent. If the Hokage says yes, then it can be done. If the Hokage says no, then even if you say yes, it won't work.
He didn't even need to join his teacher Orochimaru when he said this. To deal with someone like Danzo, a Third Hokage would really be enough...
Faced with the insurmountable "mountain" of Hokage, Danzo had no other choice but to be furious.
Liuyun could even foresee Danzo saying to the Hokage "You will regret this", followed by a "bang" and the scene of him slamming the door and leaving.
After hearing Liuyun's words, Shimura Danzo's breathing became noticeably heavier, and his chest rose and fell noticeably, but his years of energy-cultivation skills had played a role and prevented him from losing his composure on the spot.
Besides, Liuyun is not the target of his anger now... After all, he has said that if the Hokage agrees, he can join, and it doesn't matter where he works... He does not reject the Root.
The one who restricted him from joining the Root was Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage who had more power than him!
