Chapter 20 The beast roared over the village.
Shinji was not in a hurry.
After waiting for a moment and making sure that Danzo was far away, he used the 'Transformation Technique' to heighten his figure, transformed into an ANBU costume, and flew towards the root base!
The root base is underground, so there aren't any other doors or windows, just this underground entrance covered by a dilapidated building.
therefore.
This only entrance and exit is guarded by root ninjas around the clock.
Shinji naturally took this into consideration, so during the raid, he activated his Mangekyō Sharingan early.
When the root ninja stationed at the entrance discovered him and stopped him to verify his identity, he directly activated the illusion and controlled the opponent.
"Take me to Danzo's secret vault!"
he ordered.
The root ninja who was under the illusion did not move, his expression was struggling.
"Huh!?"
Shinji was surprised.
It is true that he has never practiced genjutsu specifically, and no one has guided him in the techniques of performing genjutsu, but with the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan, he has been able to work recklessly without ever failing.
Unexpectedly, it didn't work here.
He immediately realized that the opponent was not weak, and might even have been trained to fight against illusions.
With a shudder in his heart, he activated the Mangekyou Sharingan again: "Take me to the secret library!"
With the superposition of eye power, the root ninja finally fell completely into Shinji's illusion, and headed towards the root base like a puppet. Gone.
Shinji, dressed as an ANBU, followed the other party like a companion.
The inside of the root base is far larger than Shinji imagined.
After passing a long spiral staircase, his eyes suddenly opened up.
"This"
even though he was mentally prepared, he was still surprised.
In front of him was a huge, bottomless pit, like a building extending into the ground. Each floor had a circle of rooms dug out of the rock formations.
The floors are connected in series through spiral staircases and cable bridges.
Even if you just look at it from a distance, you can't help but feel depressed and frightened.
"Continue!"
Under Shinji's urging, the root ninja controlled by his illusion took another step.
Shinji followed the opponent while quietly placing detonating symbols at key nodes along the way.
As we go deeper and deeper, there are fewer and fewer light sources around us. Looking at the dark ropeway under our feet, it feels like we are really walking into hell.
Shinji suppressed his uneasiness and observed his surroundings vigilantly.
Finally, after passing the complicated spiral staircase and ropeway, the root ninja controlled by the illusion brought Shinji to a gate.
Shinji asked: "This is Danzo's secret vault?"
The root ninja nodded.
After retreating to a safe distance, Shinji ordered: "Open it!"
The root ninja stepped forward and pushed open the door.
Through the faint light source in the secret vault, Shinji saw rows of display racks inside.
But at this distance and in this light source environment, even if he had a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, he couldn't identify the items on the display rack.
After pondering for a while, Shinji asked: "Is there a trap inside?"
"I don't know."
The root ninja shook his head.
Shinji ordered: "You go in first!"
The root ninja did not hesitate and stepped into the secret vault.
In an
instant, a dazzling electric light flashed on the floor of the secret vault, covering the entire Root Ninja who stepped into the secret vault.
"Ah!"
The painful wailing then resounded through the passage.
At the same time, countless warning lights embedded on the rock walls throughout the base flashed red, followed by sharp sirens.
Shinji was startled and turned around quickly.
Whoa.
The root ninja who had just been electrocuted and was still covered in smoke and couldn't even stand still shot a kunai at him.
Shinji didn't bother, and immediately fled outside after avoiding the flying kunai.
With a few moves, he rushed out of the passage and came to the spiral staircase outside.
With just a glance, he noticed that amidst the shrill sirens, several figures were rushing toward him from all directions.
He glanced back.
The root ninja who was electrocuted also chased him out of the passage.
Shinji breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately, while galloping up the spiral staircase, he took out the kunai that had already been tied with detonating charms from the ninja bag on his waist.
Then he threw these kunai one by one at the trap he had laid when he came.
boom!
boom!
boom!
Soon, there were continuous explosions in the root base.
"Is he crazy?"
"Damn it, stop him!"
"Damn it!"
The root ninjas who surrounded Shinji were furious.
Although the downwardly extending structure of the root base can effectively prevent enemies from infiltrating, it cannot withstand violent internal explosion damage.
One careless move may cause the entire base to collapse inward, and everyone will be buried at the bottom of the cave.
So when they saw Shinji using the detonating talisman to attack the rock wall of the base, several root ninjas didn't even bother to chase Shinji. They immediately stopped to form seals and used the Earth Release Ninjutsu to strengthen the rock wall.
Shinji was actually frightened at this moment, but he had Susanoo by his side, so even if the base was really blown up by him, he could still rush out.
So he became even more unscrupulous and pulled out all the detonating talismans from the ninja bag.
"Stop!"
The ninja's heart was broken when he saw this.
If so many detonating symbols were detonated at one time, the base would probably collapse.
By that time, not to mention that the base cannot be saved, no one present will be able to escape alive!
Therefore, the several root ninjas who were still chasing Shinji stopped one after another, for fear of further irritating Shinji and causing everyone to die.
Shinji also stopped detonating the detonating talisman. Instead of irritating the root ninjas, he activated the 'breathing technique' with all his strength, sprinted along the spiral staircase, and fled outside under the gnashing teeth of the root ninjas.
When he arrived at the entrance to the ground, the moment he rushed out, he also posted detonating symbols on the walls on both sides of the entrance.
Boom boom!
The flames of the explosion engulfed the entrance to the root base in an instant, completely destroying the surface buildings of the root base.
Shinji, who was running quickly, looked back.
Although he confirmed that there were no pursuers behind him, he still did not dare to be careless and immediately ducked into the grass.
After escaping to a relatively safe area, he released the 'transformation spell' and took off the mask on his face.
"We can only rely on briquettes."
Shinji looked in the direction of the root base with a solemn expression.
Just when he turned around to run away and lure away the root ninja, the coal ball that had been hiding in his shadow quietly escaped and hid in the shadow outside the secret vault.
This is also the reason why Danzo turned around and ran away without hesitation even though his secret vault was very close.
"We must succeed!"
He secretly prayed in his heart.
It would be difficult for Danzo to have an opportunity like this tonight when he went out, his base was empty, and he neglected to take precautions again in a short period of time.
If we fail to succeed this time, it will be more difficult to infiltrate with a defensive root base.
Roar.
Just when Shinji was feeling uneasy, there was a sudden roar in the distance, and then, a soul-shaking beast roar echoed over the village.
Shinji looked up and was stunned: "Nine-nine tails!?"
