Konoha: Start with the card-drawing mobile game

In the root base guarded by a large number of root members.

The Flying Thunder God Kunai and special techniques have been arranged. Under the gaze of a large number of root members, Namikaze Minato suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart.

‘Shimura Danzo’s arm? ’

Namikaze Minato's right hand holding the Flying Thunder God Kunai suddenly froze because he caught an abnormality with his peripheral vision.

Just when Shimura Danzo was talking to Namikaze Minato, his right arm hidden under the robe-like clothing was 'accidentally' exposed.

Although the strength of the 'inhibited version' of Hashirama's cells improved by Orochimaru is not satisfactory, it may be due to the inhibitor. The vitality of Hashirama's cells is uncontrollably released when chakra is mobilized.

‘Such a strong vitality! ’

Danzo Shimura, who was wearing a one-eyed root mask, stretched out his pale right arm and boldly displayed his right arm composed of Hashirama cells in front of Namikaze Minato.

"Same as A, it is the result of experiments on the roots."

Danzo Shimura shook his right hand slightly, and a powerful wave of Wooden Chakra spread.

"From the power of the First Hokage!"

The stunned Namikaze Minato stopped maintaining the flying thunder god formation, stood up and stared at Danzo's right arm that was incompatible with his normal skin color.

"Elder Danzo."

Countless tiny pieces of Wood Release flowed out from Shimura Danzo's hand like gravel, which was the crushed Wood Release.

"How can you be stagnant like Sarutobi Hiruzen?"

After speaking in a low tone, Shimura Danzo slowly took off the mask that covered his face.

"Under Hiruzen's leadership, Konoha became more and more decayed, which is why the war started."

Although the right eye blocked by the mask sealing technique was revealed to Namikaze Minato's eyes as the mask was taken off, three black magatama that did not belong to Shimura Danzo were flowing in the red pupils.

This is the first time since the start of the Third Ninja War that Danzo Shimura, who was hiding in the root base, has appeared in front of the Hokage lineage.

"Three Magatama Sharingan!"

Namikaze Minato's blue pupils trembled slightly, which perfectly overlapped with the rumored "Shimura Danzo and Human Experiments".

"The second generation of forbidden arts, Kyuubi, Senju, Uchiha, Hinata."

"Under the leadership of Hiruzen, with this kind of power, Konoha is actually weakening day by day. It is threatened by other ninja villages at will, and even takes the lead in launching wars."

Shimura Danzo stated the objective facts in a calm tone, and then turned to look at 'A' beside him.

Kabuto, who was disguised by Toru Uchiha after using Wood Release to change his body, nodded, as if he was praising Tomura Danzo's words.

As if he had been instructed, Danzo Shimura continued: "Peace is not unattainable, and I will prove it to you."

The three magatama Sharingan in his eyes suddenly rotated, and an increasingly cold breath spread around Shimura Danzo's body.

"Watch carefully, I have some of the powers of the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha."

With the help of Uchiha Toru's pupil power stored in Shimura Danzo's right eye through the transfer seal, a kaleidoscope shaped like a curved shuriken was suddenly generated.

"How to surpass Hiruzen and complete the duties that should belong to Hokage!"

"Mangekyo Sharingan!"

Namikaze Minato keenly judged the power in Shimura Danzo's eyes and swallowed subconsciously.

Shimura Danzo casually handed the mask to the root ninja beside him. He seemed to no longer want to hide it.

"Are the preparations for the Flying Thunder God Formation ready?"

Before walking up, Shimura Danzo patted Namikaze Minato on the shoulder with his right hand that had residual wood escape chakra.

"That's all, Elder Danzo!"

After recovering from the shock of the Mangekyou Sharingan and the Wood Release, Namikaze Minato replied respectfully.

Danzo Shimura stepped forward further and entered the formation of the Flying Thunder God.

"Let's go, A!"

The base-dressed Uchiha Toru immediately followed Shimura Danzo and looked at Namikaze Minato with his own eyes exposed from the mask.

‘Following Shimura Danzo alone to switch battle zones, this guy is not simple! ’

Just by passing by, Namikaze Minato experienced chakra from 'Ka' that far exceeded the wood escape of Shimura Danzo's right arm.

‘Mu Dun’s experimental subject? ’

While thinking about how far 'Ka''s wood escape level could be achieved, Danzo Shimura who tried to activate the Flying Thunder God Formation immediately aroused the alert of Namikaze Minato.

"To be on the safe side, please let me assist you in guiding the coordinates of the Flying Thunder God Formation!"

The biggest convenience of the Flying Thunder God Formation is that it lowers the threshold for use.

There is no need to master the art of Flying Thunder God. You only need to activate the chakra transfer coordinates from both directions to spatially transfer people or materials within the formation.

The Flying Thunder God Formation, which is distributed among the five battlefields and communicates with each other, requires personnel with time and space talents to maintain it. After all, Namikaze Minato's energy is still limited, so he selected some ninjas with time and space talents.

Bingzhidou, Shiranui Genma, and Die Iwahi, these three were the young men he selected from the three battlefields of Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and Kumogakure to be trained.

Although the Flying Thunder God Formation established in various war zones has been practiced many times, there was no coordinate confusion during the transfer.

But after all, they are the top combat power of Konoha's elders and roots. Out of caution, this time the Flying Thunder God Formation must be activated by Namikaze Minato himself and guide the positioning of the coordinates.

"Well, Elder Danzo and A, we can start the transfer!"

After saying that, Namikaze Minato quickly formed a seal and slapped the ground with one hand.

"Psychic art!"

A toad wearing beads with the word 'loyalty' around its neck appeared in front of Namikaze Minato after the white smoke dispersed.

"Please contact the toad guarding the Flying Thunder God Formation on the Yunyin battlefield. The fixed-point teleportation is about to begin!"

"good!"

The same white smoke immediately dispersed, and Toadada who returned to Mt. Myoboku immediately started liaison with the Kumogakure battlefield.

"Then let's start here too!"

Under Namikaze Minato's instruction, several root ninjas gathered around the Flying Thunder God's formation, holding hands and injecting a large amount of chakra into the Flying Thunder God's formation.

Standing in front of Danzo Shimura and 'Ka', Minato Namikaze, who was in the formation of the Flying Thunder God, sensed the coordinates of the 'Kumogakure battlefield' that had changed from blurry to clear, and said:

"Array of Flying Thunder Gods!"

Long-distance space transfer is naturally accompanied by a large amount of chakra consumption. The root ninjas maintaining the flying thunder god array around them suddenly felt the rapid loss of chakra.

A ray of light flashed, and only the shadows of the three people were left in the formation of the Flying Thunder God in front of them, and the next moment they disappeared on the Yuyin battlefield.

"It should be okay, right?"

The panting Aburame Ryoma took out a military food pill from his ninja tool bag and quickly stuffed it into his mouth.

Even if the chakra consumption of long-distance transfer is evenly shared by multiple root ninjas, it is still a consumption that cannot be underestimated.

"I should be the one taking the lead next, the action against Yugakure!"

Aburame Ryoma seems ready to show off her skills before Lord Danzo returns.

But at this moment, a gentle young voice came from behind him.

"It's not you, it should be us!"

Wearing a mask representing 'E', the mysterious root ninja walked up to Aburame Ryoma.

"According to Danzo-sama's decree, the actions on the Aegakure battlefield should be directed by the two of us."

"How is it possible? Lord Danzo didn't give me any instructions."

The next moment, Toru Uchiha placed the secret order written by Shimura Danzo in front of Aburame Ryoma.

"It should be confirmed now, Ryoma-senpai!"

Immediately afterwards, Aburame Ryoma's expression was full of doubts.

"You can call me Wu or Uchiha Toru, whatever you like."

Uchiha Toru's shadow clone took off the mask that obscured his face, and after revealing his handsome appearance, he first smiled, and then instantly opened the three Magatama Sharingan.

"Should we postpone the action against the Akatsuki organization for now?"

The east of the Fire Country is in the direction of the Yunyin battlefield.

"The person teleporting this time is actually Elder Danzo!"

Several Konoha ninjas stood around the Flying Thunder God Formation. After completing the chakra injection, they only needed to wait silently for the coordinates to be sensed, and then greet Shimura Danzo.

Through the root ninja who were mobilized to this battlefield in advance to detect intelligence, build a gathering place, and take over the intelligence left by Namikaze Minato, they already knew the heavyweights coming this time.

The organization corresponding to the Anbu, the leader of the Roots—Shimura Danzo.

"Elder Danzo, I hope his power can defeat those"

While one of the Konoha ninjas was discussing, the formation of the Flying Thunder God immediately flashed white light.

Following a strong fluctuation in time and space, three Konoha ninjas arrived at the battlefield here.

"Elder Danzo, let you"

Suddenly, the ninjas of Konoha froze immediately after seeing Shimura Danzo's right eye, and the shock in their eyes could no longer be concealed.

‘Uchiha’s Sharingan! ’

The most important thing is that Namikaze Minato beside him not only did not condemn this behavior of stealing the blood inheritance limit of the ninjas from the same village, but even greeted Shimura Danzo gently:

"Elder Danzo, arrived successfully!"

With a warm smile on his face, Namikaze Minato took out the dormant slug from his ninja bag, "Then the rest of the battle will be left to you!"

Shimura Danzo nodded slightly and stepped out of the Flying Thunder God Formation under the entourage of 'A'.

"Master Slug, I leave the chakra replenishment to you!"

The slug held by Namikaze Minato woke up from its dormant state. After a few collisions with its two tentacles, it immediately sensed the surrounding scene.

"Yeah, it's Minato!"

After shaking its tentacles a few times, the slug made a soft sound.

Immediately afterwards, the slug climbed onto Namikaze Minato's shoulder, and a soft green light emitted around its body.

"Leave the chakra replenishment to me!"

While Slug was indirectly providing chakra to Namikaze Minato, Slug suddenly discovered something.

"It's Mr. Hashirama's cells. Why were they transplanted into your right arm?"

Suddenly, the Konoha ninjas in the camp were attracted by the slug's words, and immediately turned to face Shimura Danzo who was about to walk out of the camp.

Based on the 'rumors' that spread in the ninja world some time ago, the Konoha ninjas immediately made a judgment:

'Not only Uchiha's Sharingan, Shimura Danzo also desecrated Hashirama-sama's body! ’

Hearing the sound of the slug, Shimura Danzo did not have any emotional fluctuations, but 'A' who had been following Shimura Danzo turned around and faced the slug.

"Danzo-sama's research is just a full use of the power of the deceased!"

Without any intention of continuing to explain, Uchiha Toru followed Shimura Danzo outside the camp.

"I have discovered traces of the more powerful Wooden Release chakra on your body. You can also use Wooden Release!"

The word "Wood Release" immediately attracted the attention of the Konoha ninjas present.

If Danzo Shimura and the roots he led could regain the prestige of Wood Release, the Kumogakure battlefield would not be reduced to a one-sided situation.

Remaining vigilant, Slug, who is Tsunade's psychic beast, has no good feelings towards Danzo Shimura who stole the power of Senju Hashirama.

'They stole Lord Hashirama's body for experiments, they must tell Lord Tsunade immediately! ’

Watching 'A' and Danzo Shimura leave here, Slug made a decision in his heart.

"Don't worry, I will tell Hokage-sama."

Namikaze Minato soothingly touched the slug on his shoulder that continued to deliver chakra to him. Just as he was about to transfer the chakra supplemented by the slug to the Iwagakure battlefield, a large amount of fatigue suddenly accumulated on his body.

‘The shadow clone practice failed! ’

Namikaze Minato covered the top of his head, and the memory of the shadow clone's training at Mt. Myoboku was immediately transferred to his mind.

"Relying on shadow clones is still too risky!"

Feeling the rare senjutsu chakra fed back into the body when the shadow clone was released, fortunately Fukasaku Sage had dissipated some of it for himself before the shadow clone turned to stone.

"You have to go there yourself!"

Understanding the dangers and low success rate of the shadow clone's training sage mode, Namikaze Minato immediately made a decision.

Right now, he urgently needs the power of immortal mode to make up for his lack of destructive power.

"Is it the Senjutsu Chakra from Mt. Myoboku?" Slug, who was providing Chakra to Namikaze Minato, immediately discovered the Senjutsu Chakra that suddenly appeared in his body.

"Minato, what are you going to do?"

"Lord Slug, I want to go to Miaomu Mountain to practice in sage mode!"

"Sage mode?" Slug thought for a moment and asked, "What about your mission at the Iwagakure battlefield?"

Namikaze Minato stretched out his hands and formed the seal of the psychic technique in reverse.

"We won't encounter strong enemies in our recent missions, so there should be no problem in leaving it to the shadow clone!"

The shadow clone will disappear when it is damaged. The implication is already obvious.

Namikaze Minato's mission on the Iwagakure battlefield must be completed without any injuries.

The time that the shadow clone could buy was the length of time Minato Namikaze spent practicing sage mode at Mt. Myouki.

"The shadow clone may need your help. I'll trouble you to replenish chakra for the shadow clone!"

Carrying the slug on his shoulder, Minato Namikaze slapped the ground with one hand while completing the seal of the counter-spiritual technique.

A burst of white smoke flashed by, and Namikaze Minato immediately moved to Mt. Myoboku.

Outside the position where the Flying Thunder God Formation is stored.

Danzo Shimura and Toru Uchiha met with the root ninjas of the Kumogakure battlefield.

"Root base, are you ready?" Danzo Shimura asked in a calm voice while maintaining the state of the three magatama sharingan in his right eye.

"It's ready for use, Danzo-sama!"

Below, the root ninja wearing a standard mask knelt on one knee and replied respectfully.

"Very well, lead the way!"

Under Shimura Danzo's instruction, the Nebe ninja immediately guided Shimura Danzo and Uchiha Toru to Nebe's latest base around the Kumogakure battlefield.

"Lord Danzo, you do not plan to go to the headquarters to meet."

A Konoha ninja who was responsible for welcoming Danzo Shimura asked anxiously as he ran out of the camp.

Normally, Danzo Shimura would need to handle a series of troublesome matters such as handing over the battle situation and discussing actions after arriving at the Kumogakure battlefield.

"No need at all, just give the corresponding information to the roots."

After turning his head, Danzo Shimura replied coldly to the Konoha ninja.

But it seems that he remembered Uchiha Toru's instruction to 'show the power of your body and roots, and take the responsibility on yourself! ’, Shimura Danzo still added:

"Don't worry, the front will be recovered soon."

"Whether it's facing the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki or the Sandaime Raikage!"

After saying that, the three Magatama Sharingan in Shimura Danzo's right eye changed instantly. Through the stored pupil power, it condensed into the shape of the Mangekyo Sharingan and then met the eyes of the Konoha ninja.

"So, can you rest assured?"

The Konoha ninja stared at the beautiful pattern in Shimura Danzo's right eye. He had heard about this 'Uchiha's ultimate power' in the rumors in the ninja world.

‘Mangekyo Sharingan’

The Konoha ninja recited this term in his mind and watched quietly as the Root ninja led Shimura Danzo and 'Ka' away.

Within the Country of Fire, in the root base.

"The base that was temporarily built in a short period of time is not bad!"

Sitting in the seat reserved for the root leader, Uchiha Toru praised Shimura Danzo who was standing next to him.

"It is my honor to serve Lord Tohru!"

Shimura Danzo replied respectfully, took out a luxurious-looking letter stored on his waist, and handed it to Uchiha Toru's hands.

"The Ninja Cat has been transported to the root organization's base in the Hidden Rain Battlefield, and is working hard to create gold coins!"

"This is a reply from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. He allows Wu from the Root Organization to meet to discuss the election of the next Hokage."

Taking the letter from Danzo Shimura, Toru Uchiha couldn't help but laugh when he saw the condescending tone of the 'Daimyo of the Land of Fire'.

"How naive, he doesn't seem to have figured out who the prey is yet!"

In the letter, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire stated in a private capacity: "We will not make a decision in advance. We will consider candidates for the Fourth Generation after the Third Generation abdicates based on military merit!" ’

"After controlling the daimyo, your position as Hokage will be stable, right?"

Uchiha Toru stood up from his chair and slowly walked to Shimura Danzo.

"After becoming Hokage, you can also obtain conveniences in all aspects for me!"

The excitement on Danzo Shimura's face could not be concealed at all, and his desire for the position of Hokage was fully displayed, even as Toru Uchiha's puppet.

"Before that, let's clean out the Kumogakure ninjas from Yu no Kuni and use the power of Wood Release!"

Uchiha Toru placed the ninjutsu scroll of 'Wood Release - Arrival of the Tree Realm' in Shimura Danzo's hand, and put the mask representing 'Armor' in the other hand on his face.
