Danzō left the Hokage's office, still seething with anger.
He was thoroughly displeased with Sarutobi Hiruzen's indecisiveness.
In his eyes, the Uchiha Clan, apart from Uchiha Kagami from back in the day, were all evil Uchiha.
Especially Uchiha Chisen, that Uchiha brat who openly displayed his extreme personality and methods!
What "Absolute Justice"?
It was clearly just killing for pleasure under the guise of justice!
Only that unqualified Third Hokage, that monkey, would believe Uchiha Chisen's stance was trustworthy.
As Danzō was filled with dissatisfaction, and was on his way back to the Root base with two Root guards...
He witnessed a scene that nearly gave him a heart attack.
—The nine-year-old Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Uzumaki Naruto, was being held by Uchiha Chisen!
This image made Danzō recall the Nine-Tails' Rampage.
The destruction that terrifying Nine-Tails demon fox had wrought upon Konoha was vivid and fresh in his memory!
Danzō practically exploded with rage, his face turning crimson.
After shouting "You naturally evil Uchiha brat" from a distance, he had already swiftly rushed towards Uchiha Chisen with his two Root guards.
In the blink of an eye, they had surrounded Uchiha Chisen, the Anbu ninja, Izumi, and Uzumaki Naruto in a triangular formation.
Danzō was so emotionally agitated that he was about to tear off his bandages, revealing the terrifying Sharingan underneath.
But fortunately, he gritted his teeth and held back.
"Uchiha Chisen! Are you trying to rebel!?"
Danzō glared at Uchiha Chisen with an extremely sinister, furious gaze, his breathing becoming heavier with his agitation.
He roared aggressively, "Kidnapping Uzumaki Naruto in the street, your Uchiha Clan's ambition can no longer be hidden!"
"I knew your Uchiha Clan harbored ill intentions towards Konoha. The tragedy Konoha suffered years ago... it was indeed your Uchiha Clan that personally orchestrated it!"
The two masked Root guards had already drawn their ninja swords.
The tense atmosphere made some nearby passersby realize something was amiss.
"Who are those two masked people..." Compared to the Anbu ninja, who were somewhat visible, few civilians knew about the existence of Root ninja, who were purely in the shadows of Konoha's Root.
"Hey, hey, something seems off!" someone gulped and stepped back nervously, "Are they going to fight? Should we quickly go notify the Konoha Military Police Force?"
"Isn't that Uchiha Chisen... part of the Konoha Military Police Force? We should notify the Hokage!"
"The situation looks a bit bad..."
"..."
Izumi also felt the situation was not good. She didn't recognize the Root ninja, nor did she know Shimura Danzō, but she recognized the Anbu masks.
She also noticed that ever since the bandaged old man, whom she had never seen before, appeared, Chisen-senpai's gaze had been fixed on him.
She wasn't sure if it was her imagination, but she felt that Chisen-senpai's eyes contained a palpable killing intent.
Clearly, it wasn't her imagination.
In Uchiha Chisen's vision, the red square floating above Danzō's head was larger than anyone else's.
The dense small text contained the repeated crimes Danzō had committed, and its deep crimson color, almost purple, represented his evil.
Uchiha Chisen had seen Danzō from afar six years ago, and at that time, he had already felt an urge to act.
However...
Back then, he was only a Chunin, and the sins Danzō carried were far beyond what his abilities could cleanse.
And now...
Uchiha Chisen felt the urge to act again. He narrowed his eyes, ignoring Danzō's series of aggressive questions, and said, "This brat was caught by me because he committed an offense. Root... are you trying to obstruct the Konoha Military Police Force's enforcement? Anyone who obstructs law enforcement will be killed without mercy."
The Anbu ninja responsible for monitoring Naruto also realized the situation was not right.
He subtly summoned a ninja pigeon and released it, sending the summoned beast to quickly inform the Hokage.
Naruto was so scared by the dangerous atmosphere that he didn't dare to speak.
He realized he had truly caused a major problem today.
Danzō's sinister eyes were also filled with killing intent: "Uchiha Chisen, you are no longer an ordinary evil Uchiha! Today, I will personally eliminate this threat for Konoha."
Clack—
Uchiha Chisen's ninja sword had been drawn more than an inch from its sheath.
As a falling leaf was swept by a gust of wind...
The two Root ninja behind Uchiha Chisen made the first move!
One, wielding a ninja sword, instantly closed in on Uchiha Chisen, the tip of the blade aimed directly at his back!
One slashed towards Uchiha Chisen's left arm, attempting to seize the Jinchuriki.
Danzō rapidly closed the distance, appearing within mere inches.
His bandaged arm, without anyone noticing, had already grasped a kunai.
The kunai shot directly towards Uchiha Chisen's abdomen!
In that near-simultaneous moment, a scarlet hue spread across Uchiha Chisen's eyes, his Three-Tomoe Sharingan dominating his pupils.
He suddenly retracted his left hand, forcing a Root ninja attempting to sever his left arm to hastily pull back their blade, as striking it would mean hitting the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
The ninja sword, already drawn an inch from his waist, was fully unsheathed in an instant, clashing fiercely with the kunai Danzō thrust.
Using this momentum, Uchiha Chisen let go of his ninja sword and swiftly formed a hand seal with his right hand.
"Lava Release..."
"Chakra Warrior Body!"
An astonishing crimson chakra surged around Uchiha Chisen, every inch of his skin visibly transforming into a flowing lava-like state. Even his Konoha Military Police Force uniform was assimilated by the Lava Release chakra, taking on a molten, flowing appearance.
The terrifying heat caused Naruto's collar to ignite, and Naruto fell with a thump. The intense heat, even from a few centimeters away, burned Naruto's nape.
In pain, Naruto clutched his neck and cried out loudly.
The ninja sword aimed at Uchiha Chisen's back, the moment it touched his skin...
It melted!
"This is..." Danzō's pupils contracted. His mind, almost clouded by rage, instantly cleared, reminding him of Uchiha Chisen's unique nature: "Lava Release Kekkei Genkai!!!"
This naturally evil Uchiha brat before him was a ninja with dual Kekkei Genkai, an incredibly rare sight even in the entire ninja world!
Even Danzō had only heard rumors of Uchiha Chisen's dual Kekkei Genkai, but had never actually seen him use Lava Release.
This astonishing temperature was more terrifying than many Fire Style ninjutsu!
He absolutely could not be touched by this naturally evil Uchiha brat; such heat would evaporate flesh—this was Danzō's subconscious conclusion, drawn from years of combat experience.
The moment Danzō's thought concluded...
Uchiha Chisen's lava-like arm transformed into a crimson spear, thrusting forward!
It charged directly towards Danzō's head!
