Starting from the root of Konoha, he was the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 14 Rasengan! (Seeking follow-up recommendation votes and monthly tickets)

Under the protection of his two companions, Kato Dan sat cross-legged, formed seals with his hands, and his spirit and chakra transformed into a spirit body, flew out of his body, and roared away in the night sky.

In the distance, Xingxiaxiu's real body was hidden in the dark, watching the scene with wandering eyes.

"If I take action now, I have a good chance of killing Kato Dan..."

This thought flashed through his mind, but Xing Xiaxiu immediately suppressed it and turned away.

Not long after, the shadow clone's memories came back.

Faced with the spirit transformation technique, the shadow clone was killed without even being able to resist.

However, this also gave Xingxia Xiu a certain understanding of this technique.

This is not an invincible technique!
"The key lies in mental will and chakra amount."

"With sufficiently strong mental will and chakra, one can forcibly expel the spirit that has entered the body."

Xingxia Xiu thought of Orochimaru's reincarnation again.

Orochimaru was reincarnated several times, but was finally defeated by Uchiha Sasuke.

It can be seen that no technique is invincible and perfect.

"In addition, the barrier can also restrain the spiritualization technique."

"The sealing technique is more acceptable... However, ordinary sealing techniques are not suitable for facing the enemy in battle. The Diamond Seal is very useful, but this technique is not a bloodline limit, but it is better than a bloodline limit."

"However, Mingshenmen is not bad either."

Xingxia Xiu's thoughts were scattered, and he subconsciously thought about how to deal with ninjutsu such as the Spiritualization Technique.

However, he did not stop and soon arrived at a hotel that he had planned to stay in during the day and checked in as a merchant from the Fire Nation.

From now until he leaves Damingfu tomorrow, he will be an ordinary businessman and will not use chakra unless it is a critical moment.

the other side.

Kato Dan's spirit body returned, and after opening his eyes, he said regretfully: "Another shadow clone, the real body has been hidden."

The expressions of the other two Konoha ninjas changed when they heard this.

"Could it be that the one we are chasing is not the real one?"

"Or maybe this guy is also proficient in earth escape in addition to wind escape?"

They were moving very fast and chasing closely. In such a short period of time, the two shadow clones provided cover while the main body disappeared from the dark alley. Only earth escape could do that.

Kato remained noncommittal and said, "This matter ends here. I will report to the Third Hokage when I return to the village."

……

This night, Daming Prefecture is destined to be extremely lively.

Xingxiaxiu slept soundly until dawn, making up for the sleep she had missed in the previous two days.

However, Danzo gave him three days for the mission, and he completed it in just one day. With two days left, he was too lazy to return to Konoha immediately to avoid frequent missions and not even having time to practice.

Early in the morning, I left Damingfu under the stars, and then stayed in the famous Duance Street. I found a secluded place nearby to meditate.

While Hoshita Hide was training hard, the Daimyo Mansion had already sent a message to Konoha Village. Kato Dan and the other two also returned to Konoha to report what happened last night to the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Danzo did not inform about the assassination in advance, but Sarutobi Hiruzen knew it very well, so after listening to the report, he did not say much, but only praised Kato Dan.

After Kato Dan retreated, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately began to think.

There is no doubt that the root of this incident was done very well.

The blame was put on the Sky Ninja Village, and no one suspected it.

There was even a moment when Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to use this incident as an excuse to launch a war against the Sora Ninja Village and eliminate the Sora Ninja Village that had challenged Konoha several times.

Moreover, Sarutobi Hiruzen believed that the Daimyo of the Fire Country, whose authority was challenged, would definitely agree.

However, he still held back.

Konoha must continue to accumulate strength and compete with the other four major ninja villages in military strength.

He wanted to prevent Konoha from being besieged by the other four major ninja villages.

"Unfortunately, the Wood Release experiment failed..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed inwardly.

An experiment caused Konoha to suffer heavy losses, otherwise he would have directly attacked the Sora Ninja Village.

……

root base.

Danzo has been waiting.

He was waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen's reaction.

Unfortunately, a whole morning passed, but no one was sent to look for him. He had given Sarutobi Hiruzen a perfect excuse, but it still did not change Sarutobi Hiruzen's decision.

"Xiu is right..."

An idea flashed through Danzo's mind, and he immediately stood up and left the Root base and went to the Hokage's office.

But before Danzo could speak, Sarutobi Hiruzen said first: "The Root did a great job this time!"

"However, although this is a perfect excuse for war, now is still not the time to act."

"I need the Root to have the strength to deal with the Sora Ninja Village without affecting Konoha's battles with other ninja villages."

One sentence shut Danzo up.

Danzo was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression relaxed and he said, "I will use these two incidents to hold the Sora Ninja Village accountable, but I'm sure they won't compromise easily. The pretext for war still exists, and the initiative is in our hands."

"Now is not the time to take full action, but we can make preparations first."

Danzo nodded, his eyes flickering twice before he spoke, "Huruzen, I need to select a group of children from the ninja school and the major ninja clans to enter the Root for special training. I want them to become the foundation of the Root and protect the village in darkness."

Sarutobi Hiruzen hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

He really needs roots to grow stronger.

The efficiency of the Root in recent days is enough to prove that Konoha needs such a power hidden in a darker place.

When Danzo saw that Sarutobi Hiruzen agreed, he was overjoyed.

In this way, the power of the roots can change dramatically within a few years.

After all, the students of the ninja school and the children of the ninja clan all have a certain foundation and can be trained much faster than orphans with a blank slate.

Of course, he would not give up Xing Xiaxiu's advice.

The orphanage is also a place for personnel selection.

……

The sun sets in a forest outside Tance Street.

With the sound of a bang, Xingxiaxiu smiled and said, "It's finally done."

He finally burst the balloon.

Next comes the ball.

Throwing away the balloon, Xingxia Xiu took out a leather ball from the backpack beside him and started rubbing it.

He has already mastered certain skills by playing with water balls, and playing with leather balls is relatively easier for him.

Unlike Naruto, Xingxia Xiu is familiar with all the steps.

Therefore, when practicing with the ball, he began to concentrate on further compressing the chakra, making the gathered chakra more stable.

When Naruto was training, after breaking the ball, he also needed to practice concentrating the chakra a little and making the chakra rotate stably.

The more stable it is and the more it rotates towards the center, the more the chakra will naturally compress and the more powerful it will become.

Xingxia Xiu planned to complete it in one go.

Because he has a greater advantage than Naruto.

Stay focused!
Chakra control ability!
Grabbing the ball with both hands, Xingxia Xiu began the final practice of Rasengan.

As chakra continued to be injected, many bulges began to appear on the ball, as if it would explode at any time.

Xingxia Xiu concentrated all his attention and tried his best to gather and control the chakra in the ball.

Suddenly, with a bang, the ball exploded and a strong wind swept through. Xingxia Xiu couldn't help but take a step back, and his palms were burned by the strong chakra.

But this injury recovered in no time.

Xing Xiaxiu then took out another ball and continued practicing.

Just like that, I failed again and again.

When it was late at night, the ball in Xingxia Xiu's hand that was about to explode suddenly returned to normal, and the chakra that was rushing left and right seemed to have disappeared.

Xing Xiaxiu's eyes were full of joy.

It’s finally done!

He strode to a big tree, grabbed the ball with one hand and pressed it against the tree.

The next moment, the ball exploded, and a blue Rasengan shone in the darkness. The high-speed rotating chakra ball quickly pierced through the thick tree trunk.

boom!
The upper part of the tree fell down with a loud bang, and the Rasengan in Xingxia Xiu's hand also dissipated.
