On the way back to Konoha.

Shimura Danzou has always believed that Akihara Kagura is a well-behaved child, and any child who is used as an experimental subject will be frightened and obedient by the horrific human experiments.

Outcome.

This little guy is an exception.

Along the way, Akihara Kagura showed great curiosity about things in the outside world, and even asked them if they could fish when they were resting by the river.

Fishing?

Only the lazy guy will fish!

As the root that supports the darkness of Konoha , how could he waste time on such a thing, even if it was a last resort, he would only use the method of spearfish to replenish food!

Shimura realized that this child might have a great curiosity about the world, and perhaps he hadn't seen the real darkness, and he still needed to be cultivated after he returned.

As long as the little guy sees the cruelty of this world, he will definitely become well-behaved and sensible, Shimura Danzo feels that he is very good at taking care of children, especially good at cultivating a child with a slightly normal heart into a tool for killing.

However...

Akihara Kagura quickly made him change his mind.

"Wood Escape: The Art of Cuttings!"

Akihara Kagura shows a wave of spearfish operation by the river with a wooden escape!

A wooden thorn came out of the young man's palm, and he stabbed into the river, piercing a large fish more than a meter long, and the big fish immediately struggled violently!

The next moment!

The boy's fingers are up!

The wooden thorns actually split and grew again!

A group of dense wooden thorns grew out of the big fish's body, directly penetrating the big fish's body, and the blood instantly stained the river red!

This style of wooden escape...

It looks extremely cruel.

"Danzo-sama, I've caught a fish!"

Akihara Kagura looked at Shimura Tunzo with a happy face.

The boy's smile was incomparably innocent and pure, but it was particularly cold-blooded and ruthless under this bloody way of fishing, as if killing life was a pleasure for him.

It's a natural tool to kill.

"It's..."

The old man stared at the bloody scene in front of him, and slowly spit out a rare compliment: "Exquisite Mu Dun, a good boy..."

Whether it is the young man's Mu Dun blood succession, or the young man's attitude towards life, Shimura Danzou feels that he has really found a good seedling this time!

Konoha Village.

The richest ninja village in the ninja world.

Shimura Danzo was worried that his whereabouts would be discovered, and he also wanted to see how perfect Akihara Kagura's Kitoku talent was, so he hurried back to Konoha with the boy.

When Shimura Danzou returned to the village, he never liked to go through the gate, but liked to sneak through the Konoha back mountain to open the sealing barrier and return to the base of the root organization.

Akihara Kagura jumped into a well with Shimura Danzo, and when he entered the root organization base, he was greeted by an eerie and gloomy atmosphere.

This boss...

It's too dark!

The entire base of the Root Organization is hidden deep underground.

Even the many classical pavilions built inside the base of the Root Organization, and even some lavish clinging to the mountain walls, could not change the gloomy feeling under the darkness.

Bang Bang Bang...

The dull sound of knocking wood echoed underground.

The group couldn't help but look back at the teenager who suddenly knocked on the railing.

"A."

Shimura Danzo's expression was a little displeased, expressing dissatisfaction with the young man's actions, and said coldly, "What are you doing?" Be quieter. ”

"Yes, Danzo-sama."

After Akihara Kagura responded, he opened his mouth and explained, "I thought it would be a railing made of stone, but I didn't expect it to be made of wood, Orochimaru-sama once mentioned..."

"Shut up!"

A touch of anger appeared on Shimura Danzo's face, his eyes were fixed on the young man, and he said in a cold voice: "A, from today onwards, completely forget the name of Orochimaru!" ”

"Yes, Danzo-sama."

Akihara Kagura agreed again, and continued, "The lord mentioned that the air underground is humid and wooden buildings are prone to decay. ”

“……”

Everyone present was silent.

Shimura thought that he might have been too subtle in what he had just spoken, and wanted to say it again to make this little guy forget the person of Orochimaru instead of just the name Orochimaru, and it seemed that he was a little too calculating.

"I'm going on business."

Shimura Danzou shook his hand a little helplessly, and instructed his subordinates: "Ryoma, help him arrange a place to live, let him understand the will of the root, and then take him to see me." ”

"Yes."

The oil girl Ryoma nodded respectfully, and looked at the young man indifferently: "Follow me, don't run around, this base has a lot of forbidden places." ”

"I see."

Akihara Kagura obediently followed behind the oil girl Ryoma.

The base of the Root Organization is large.

The entire site resembles a giant well, with a group of tall classical buildings clinging to the stone walls, and covered bridges connecting them.

"A, this is your residence."

Ryoma, an oil girl, takes Akihara Kagura to a dormitory.

There was only one cupboard in the whole room, a futon on the floor, and a lamp in the corner, which looked a little empty.

"Hmm..."

Akihara Kagura glanced at his accommodation and made his request: "Help me set up a bed, I don't like to sleep on the floor very much..."

"Nope."

The oil girl Ryoma shook her head and said coldly, "The members of the root don't need to have useless emotions and external feelings, all you have to do is accept the arrangement. ”

“……”

Akihara Kagura raised her eyebrows and asked, "This... Are you my superior? Or will you be my superior in the future? ”

"No, and it won't."

The oil girl Ryoma shook her head again and replied, "Only Danzo-sama is the only superior, and everyone acts on the orders of Danzo-sama. ”

Theoretically, yes.

In fact, there are some unspoken rules in the roots, and the oil girl Ryoma, as the personal escort of Shimura Danzo, has a significantly higher status than the other members.

However, there are no distractions in the hearts of the members of the root department, only the mission sent by the Danzo Lord, when did they care about the status of superiors and subordinates?

"Now I transmit to you the will of the root..."

The oil girl Ryoma didn't notice the boy's emotions, and continued to herself: "The members of the roots, no names, no feelings, no past, no future, only tasks in their hearts, and what supports the big tree of Konoha behind it is the will that is deeply rooted in our 'roots'..."

"What's your name?"

Akihara Kagura asks her first question.

"Oil Girl Ryoma."

"Doesn't that have a name? You are not a member of the root? ”

"It's not a name."

Oil Girl Ryoma's answer was very fast, as if he had already received similar brainwashing: "Oil Girl Ryoma, is my code name in the root, and Lord Danzang is familiar with my past, so he set my past name as my code name in the root. ”

"You remember that you have a past..."

Akihara Kagura seemed to have found a loophole, and said slowly, "This doesn't quite match the will of our roots..."
