Danzo had a very bad life in the past two years, and Kushina would torture him every month.
Sometimes, when he is fully prepared for battle, his subordinates will suffer, and it is impossible for him to be fully prepared for battle all the time, so he himself will still be attacked frequently.
Danzo tried sealing techniques and barrier techniques, but, not to mention how powerful Uzumaki Kushina's skills were in sealing techniques and barrier techniques, it was difficult for Shadow Mouse and the others to defend against them.
No matter where they are, there will be shadows wherever they live.
Even if you have a super bright shadowless lamp, so that not a single shadow can be seen on the surface of the entire room, there will still be shadows inside the lamp and in the gaps between various wardrobes.
As shadow creatures, shadow rats have almost no natural enemies.
The only thing that can cause damage to them is shadow magic.
However, not to mention that the few people in the Nara clan can't do anything to the Shadow Mouse, even Danzo himself can't rely entirely on the power of the Nara clan, unless he doesn't want to do anything and disbands the Root to retire.
Because Danzo was constantly attacked, the Root continued to lose members.
His prestige in Konoha gradually declined, and those who originally knew him were filled with fear of him.
But now, many people in Konoha began to laugh at the joke.
Danzo even wanted to threaten Kushina with Uzumaki Naruto, but he had no way to get close to Uzumaki Naruto.
He also couldn't tell Sarutobi Hiruzen the truth, because that would mean he was admitting that he was the one who killed the Fourth Hokage and his wife. In that case, he would not only be laughed at, but would most likely be arrested and sentenced to death.
Konoha cannot be completely controlled by Danzo and the Hokage alone, there are many ninja families here.
Ninja families can allow some shady power games because such rules of the game are also beneficial to them and make it easier for them to maintain the status of their own family.
However, directly assassinating the Hokage and his wife would be a violation of the rules of the game.
They would not allow such a dangerous character to keep threatening them like this.
If the fact that Danzo murdered the Fourth Hokage and his wife was exposed, even if the Hokage did not execute him, the other ninja families in Konoha would kill him.
However, the darkness of the ninja world is the darkness of the ninja world.
Although his heart was filled with cold anger, he was not at all panicked and still firmly carried out his original plan.
The information obtained from Orochimaru let Danzo know the existence of the so-called Rat Sage, and then he learned about the Uzumaki clan's hidden faction from the Konoha Uzumaki, and finally combined it with the information about the Yu Ninja during the Second Ninja World War.
Finally, after two years of searching, Danzo finally found his goal.
The Hidden Whirlpool Sect.
"Well, that is to say, your master, the guy named Danzo, suspects that I am hiding the Uzumaki clan?" Kaito was sitting behind a small low table, looking at the two masked Root ninjas standing in front of him, and said in a puzzled tone.
"That's it." said the Ichibu ninja.
"And now you come to question me and want me to call out the hidden sects of the Uzumaki clan?" Kaito asked again.
"That's right." The Root Ninja answered again.
Kaito tapped the table with his fingers and looked at them with strange eyes.
"I wonder if your brains are broken."
"First, let's not talk about whether I really hid the hidden sect of the Uzumaki clan. Even if I did, what reason do you have to ask me for people? Do you think that the Uzumaki clan is your servants? The remaining members of Konoha can have a good home outside. Since you claim to be the best friend of the Uzumaki clan, shouldn't you be happy about this?"
"Secondly, you actually came to talk to me with an attitude of questioning and asking for help. After all, I am still the Daimyo of Hot Spring Country. Even the Daimyo of Fire Country would be polite when talking to me. Who do you think you are? Believe it or not, if I say that I feel insulted, the Daimyo of Fire Country will cut off its supply to Konoha, and the Daimyo of other countries will also reduce their commissions to you. Then you will have to kneel before me and apologize to me."
"Third, if you feel that the Uzumaki clan has posed a threat to you, or has done something to provoke you, you can make a public statement, or even report it to the Fire Nation Daimyo and request a declaration of war against my country. But you come here now and dare not tell me the reason. What is the hidden reason? If you dare not declare war because of some hidden reason, why do you think I will give in?"
"Oh, I understand. That little guy named Danzo thinks that I am old and confused." Kaito touched his white beard and laughed.
"Oh, I am really old and confused. I even forgot who I met today." Kaito shook his head helplessly, and then stood up tremblingly, walked behind the screen with a hunched back, leaning on a cane.
The two Root Ninjas looked puzzled behind their masks, and then felt something was wrong.
However, before they could react.
With a sound of "Puchi——", the chests of the two Root ninjas were instantly pierced by two short swords flashing with purple light.
Behind them, two figures with curvy bodies slowly emerged.
Using the invisibility technique + breath sealing technique, the two Root ninjas had no idea that there were two people following them. Until their death, they had no idea when these two people appeared.
They had no ability to resist. The poison on the dagger instantly deprived them of their strength. They didn't even make a sound and quickly lost consciousness and life.
"Clean up the blood and throw the body somewhere conspicuous." Kaito gave the order casually and then disappeared behind the screen.
The bodies of the two Root ninjas were thrown onto the official road not far from Daimyo Castle. People passing by were a little surprised at first, but the two bodies soon disappeared.
They were brought back to Konoha by other Root ninjas, and then the memories of the two corpses were read through the mind-reading technique of Yamanaka Arashi of the Root.
Danzo was not very angry about this. In fact, these two guys were just trash that Danzo used to test and were his abandoned pawns.
Kaito knew all this very well, and he was using this method to teach Danzo a lesson. It would not be quite appropriate to call it a warning, because Kaito didn't care whether Danzo would fight with the Kingdom of Hot Springs or keep the peace. He just wanted to slap Danzo in the face, and it felt very comfortable.
"I'm sorry, master, for causing you trouble. I will go and deal with that guy Danzo right away." Kushina knelt in front of Kaito and said respectfully and humbly.
"No need, just continue with your idea, it's quite interesting to me."Kaito said with a smile.
"Yes, sir."
