Chapter 293: I, Sarutobi Shinosuke
The chakra of the Five Elemental Release Jutsu conflicted with each other, surging beyond the critical value of the energy in a violent clash, and suddenly exploded!
The explosion was not a Fire Release explosion, but an attributeless explosion caused by attribute conflict.
After the explosion, the flames, water wave, lightning spear, flying gravel, and hurricane from the Five Release Ninjutsu were blasted away by the explosion, forming shockwaves of varying natures.
Yoru was stunned; he had greatly underestimated the power of the Five Elemental Great Exploding Air Bullet.
This jutsu, which Hiruzen Sarutobi regarded as a trump card, actually possessed such a unique destructive capability.
As expected of an S-rank ninjutsu; this explosion was equivalent to a small Tailed Beast Ball.
The Root Ninjas swallowed by the explosion had no ability to resist.
Even those who occasionally used Clone Jutsu or Substitution Jutsu were futile, as the explosion’s range was too large; even if the main body switched positions, it was still engulfed.
The gorge’s unique terrain made the explosion amplify its power like it was erupting inside a jar.
A long time later, the explosion ended.
The mountains on both sides of the gorge collapsed with a boom.
Danzo stood panting on the water surface, looking up at the Vortex White Zetsu at the top of the waterfall.
One mutilated corpse after another was washed downstream by the waterfall’s water flow, drifting past under Danzo’s feet.
Yoru thought to himself, Pot Shadow is still a shadow; even an S-rank forbidden jutsu couldn’t kill Danzo.
However, Danzo’s Root was finished.
Including Propane, 5 members with codenames, and more than a dozen Root New Recruits who were training, all died.
Konoha’s infighting has always been like this.
Who can’t be ruthless and merciless?
Danzo’s bandages fell off, revealing a ruined Sharingan inside.
Yoru thought to himself, Izanagi again; how many does Danzo have in his collection?
If the Uchiha weren’t annihilated soon, Danzo’s collection wouldn’t be enough.
“Danzo, if Lord Madara were here, you’d already be a dead man.
Anyone who wants to sabotage Lord Madara’s statue, I, Heinosuke Sarutobi, will never let you off lightly!”
Danzo was dumbfounded, standing there stunned, to the point that his mouth quickly went dry, and he swallowed his saliva with difficulty.
Sarutobi… Heinosuke Sarutobi?
The Sarutobi Clan produced a traitor ninja who defected to Uchiha Madara?
The four shadow clones burst open, turning into white smoke, which scattered sideways in the wind.
Yoru’s figure slowly sank, submerging into the water.
Danzo was so shocked that his reaction was half a beat slow.
“Vacuum Sphere!”
Danzo spat out more than a dozen Vacuum Spheres from his mouth; the Vacuum Spheres flew toward the top of the waterfall like bullets.
However, Heinosuke Sarutobi had already disappeared.
Ten minutes later, Yoru appeared in the basement of the izakaya.
After sealing away the swirl mask, Yoru went to the shop in front.
“Yuka, get me a bottle of sake!”
Yoru was in a very good mood.
Appearing here at this time could create an alibi.
No one could travel from the Valley of the End to Konoha Village in ten minutes, pass through the village’s barrier, right in front of the sensor ninjas in the Konoha Wall watchtowers, and drink here.
Yoru lifted a corner of his mask and quickly downed a whole bottle.
It wasn’t until an hour later that Yoru heard a special bird call.
Yoru went outside the izakaya and found it was the Ninja Hawk’s special long and short calls.
That was the Anbu’s emergency assembly order!
Konoha Jonins all looked up at the Anbu Ninja Hawk, wondering what major event had happened in Anbu to require full Anbu assembly.
Yoru used Body Flicker to leave, putting on his Anbu mask on the way.
By the time he arrived at the Anbu Base entrance, he saw that Kiiroinu had already assembled most of Anbu.
Except for the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki monitoring squad, all Anbu inside the village were here.
Purple Cat handed over the Squad Leader’s white hooded robe, and Yoru put it on.
He looked toward the Yak Squad and saw White Crane.
White Crane was now huddled behind Yak, her eyes filled with terror inside her mask.
Kiiroinu beckoned to Fox, and Yoru hurried over.
“Didn’t you suspect there was Uchiha Madara’s base in the Valley of the End? For some reason, Danzo Advisor learned of this information first.
I didn’t report this matter to Danzo Advisor.
He took Root and the new recruits in training to the Valley of the End and encountered Uchiha Madara’s subordinate.
The result…”
Kiiroinu thought of Uchiha Madara’s subordinate’s Five Elemental Great Exploding Air Bullet and found it extremely absurd.
He hadn’t even learned the Five Elemental Great Exploding Air Bullet, so why did Uchiha Madara’s subordinate know the Third Hokage’s signature ninjutsu?
That was the S-rank forbidden jutsu created by the Third Hokage himself.
“The result wasn’t good?”
Kiiroinu said, “The result was extremely bad. Root was almost completely wiped out; only Danzo Advisor and unassigned Meth who didn’t go are still alive.”
“That’s so tragic…”
Yoru thought to himself, this is truly tragic.
Jonin Squad Leader Nara Shikaku suddenly appeared with Body Flicker.
“Kiiroinu, Hokage has already headed to the village entrance. Anbu, depart now.”
“Understood, Lord Shikaku.”
At the village entrance, Yoru saw Hiruzen Sarutobi, Mito Mon’en, and Orochimaru.
Following the Konoha High Command, the team quickly left the village.
The ninjas who had just entered the village near the gate looked in astonishment at the backs of the numerous high-ranking officials and Anbu, wondering what exactly had happened.
On the road outside the village, Leaf Ninjas saw so many high-ranking officials and Anbu chasing after them and were startled.
They were only on a C-rank mission; was there some secret in the mission?
Did they have some talent they themselves hadn’t discovered, causing Konoha High Command and full Anbu to mobilize to rescue them?
The high-ranking officials and Anbu flew over their heads, leaving the squad very disappointed.
It turned out it had nothing to do with them.
When they arrived at the Valley of the End, Yoru saw from afar Danzo Shimura standing alone by the waterfall.
The wind blew his tattered clothes, giving him a somewhat tragic and desolate air of heroism.
Yoru arrived by the gorge and saw the terrifying explosion marks below the gorge.
This explosion could be called a small Tailed Beast Ball.
The Five Elemental Great Exploding Air Bullet had impressive power.
On the riverbank of the gorge’s river, several mutilated corpses were laid out.
Yoru thought to himself that Danzo was quite particular; though he always sent his subordinates to their deaths, when they really died, he knew to collect the corpses.
Including Propane, 5 official Root members and more than a dozen new recruits in training, all died.
Danzo had become a lone commander.
Mito Mon’en looked at the different residual marks of Fire Release, Lightning Release, and Wind Release on the gorge walls and puzzledly glanced at Hiruzen Sarutobi.
He thought to himself, Hiruzen, what are you trying to do?
After carefully examining the scene, Orochimaru said, “It is indeed the Five Elemental Great Exploding Air Bullet: five impact-type ninjutsus, followed by a secondary massive explosion due to elemental restraint…”
Orochimaru turned to stare at Hiruzen Sarutobi, disappointment in his eyes: “Teacher Hiruzen… this is a jutsu I haven’t even learned, yet you taught it to someone?”
“Don’t mess around!” Hiruzen Sarutobi said:
“The Five Elemental Great Exploding Air Bullet has extremely high requirements. Just preparing the five impact-type ninjutsus takes years.
Then conducting five-element restraint training takes another few years.
Even I only mastered this jutsu at age
How could I possibly teach it to someone else? And let them use this jutsu against our Konoha people?”
