Chapter 188 Desperate Counterattack
Root tissue.
"I have already passed on the secret technique to you, now return my granddaughter."
An old man with white hair and beard angrily addressed Danzo.
Yi Zhi Xing He Ying
He and his granddaughter had been living in seclusion in Gecheng Mountain, but unexpectedly they were found by the people of the Root.
And they directly arrested his granddaughter, Ying.
The old and frail warrior had no choice but to submit and be captured by Konoha.
The Traveler had been living in seclusion and was naturally unaware of outside intelligence.
Unexpectedly, the ninjas who captured them were from Konoha.
Danzo threatened Ying's life, demanding that the Enjo no Gyoza hand over the secret techniques of the Tsuchigumo clan.
The secret technique has been handed over, but Danzo has no intention of releasing the person.
"Don't rush, even though you've handed over the secret technique."
"But how do I know if it's true?"
"You need to cooperate with us to try. If you succeed, we will release you."
Danzo let out a sinister laugh.
How could anyone who gets in here possibly get out alive?
Danzo's team was working on the Bull-Headed King Project, a secret technique of the Tsuchigumo clan that could greatly shorten the research and development time.
But before that, he wanted to squeeze the last bit of value out of the pilgrim.
The traveler breathed a heavy sigh of relief; he was old and his physical ailments had essentially worn him down.
Now, when he gets emotional, he gets breathless after saying just a few words, which is why Danzo never restricted the number of his disciples.
Even though the traveler had signed a secret agreement with the Third Hokage, he still ended up getting burned.
Although the Third Hokage did not appear.
However, Danzo was definitely related to the Third Hokage.
The fact that the Journey to the West gave the secret technique to Danzo was merely a stopgap measure.
But Danzo's expression clearly indicated that he wouldn't let him go.
The Journey to the West was much older than Danzo, and in a short time he saw Danzo clearly.
However, as a warrior, he also emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
In that instant, he made his decision.
"I will only cooperate with you after I have seen my granddaughter; otherwise, you can forget about it."
Danzo said with a grim expression, "Do you really want to die?"
Yi Zhixingzhe sneered, "Without my guidance, it would take you at least five years to figure out our clan's secret techniques."
"I just want to make sure my granddaughter is safe. Huff... huff..."
Danzo waved his hand when he saw that En no Gyoza was about to die.
“Bring his granddaughter up.”
Danzo checked the condition of this En no Gyōja (a character from Journey to the West) the moment he captured the old man.
Although this warrior knows the secret techniques of the Tsuchigumo clan, even the strongest person cannot withstand the erosion of time.
The current user's body is so weak that it can barely gather chakra, so there is no danger at all.
That's why Danzo threatened him so recklessly; after all, not everyone can escape the bonds of family.
"grandfather!"
Ying was a 7-year-old child at the time.
They were living peacefully at home when suddenly villains appeared out of nowhere and kidnapped them.
The servant who had served her for many years also died.
I was terribly frightened.
Now that she saw her grandfather, she rushed towards him and started crying.
Yi Zhixingzhe hugged Ying tightly: "Don't be afraid, child, Grandpa is here."
He whispered in Ying's ear, "Ying, hold back your screams."
He then pressed his hand firmly against Ying's back, and Ying immediately felt a burning pain.
A special seal appeared on Ying's back. If you lifted her clothes, you could see that the veins on Ying's back were bulging.
As the secret seal twisted, the center gradually transformed into a gem-like pattern.
Ying didn't know what had happened; she was both scared and helpless, but she always listened to her grandfather.
Although she was in great pain, she did not cry out in pain.
Danzo said coldly, "You've seen the person yourself; they're unharmed."
The Journey to the West stood up and said coldly to Danzo:
"Now that I'm here, I probably won't be able to get out alive."
Danzo gave En no Gyoza a cold look:
"If you know the truth, then don't resist, otherwise you might eat something before you die..."
While Danzo was speaking, the Journeyman held a hand seal and pressed it onto Ying's back.
Ying's clothes at the back of her back immediately ripped apart, and then countless energies in the air were sucked towards that spot.
Danzo snorted coldly: "You still want to resist me?"
He then grabbed at the traveler who had finished his mission.
The warrior was completely unprepared. He formed two hand seals and suddenly grabbed his granddaughter Ying's shoulder.
Danzo grabbed the geisha, and immediately a large number of curse marks appeared on his body.
It is Danzo's seal of self-karma!
But the En no Gyōzō, who should have been completely unable to move, collapsed to the ground.
His entire body shrank rapidly, as if it had been sucked dry.
Those who are bound by their own karma will only collapse to the ground upon death.
But Danzo didn't have time to think. The last two hand seals that the Journeyman made were clearly to accelerate Ying's absorption of the surrounding energy.
A vortex of energy formed around Ying's body, and countless energies poured into her back.
Ying felt a sharp pain in her back, but seeing that the En no Kyouza had fallen to the ground, she quickly went to help him up.
"Grandpa, what's wrong, Grandpa!"
Danzo's expression changed, and he immediately grabbed Ying.
A white light immediately appeared around Ying's body, blocking Danzang from the outside.
However, it also kept the body of the traveler outside.
Ying sat on the ground in agony, crying loudly, "Grandpa, it hurts so much, Grandpa..."
Danzo's expression hardened, and he took a deep breath as he formed a hand seal.
Wind Release: Vacuum Wave!
He immediately spat out a wind blade!
puff!
The wind blade struck the white ball of light, but didn't even create a ripple.
Danzo's forehead was covered in sweat, and his face was filled with shock. He never expected that the Journey to the West would trick him before he died.
"Damn it!" Danzo immediately abandoned Ying and started running outside.
And he quickly formed hand seals.
"Waaaaah, Grandpa..."
Amidst Ying's sobs, the energy she absorbed behind her reached a critical point.
A burst of intense white light suddenly erupted!
……
Some distance away from Konoha.
Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Shizune are on their way.
Along the way, Jiraiya explained in detail what had happened in Konoha during this period.
Information on paper is bound to have omissions.
However, with Jiraiya's supplement, Tsunade also learned in detail about the recent events.
"This Uchiha Chiyo is no ordinary person."
After hearing this, Tsunade felt that all her previous descriptions of the Uchiha clan were no longer valid.
According to Tsunade's understanding, if the Uchiha had that kind of power, they should have flipped the table immediately.
However, given Qianyao's recent actions, it's only a matter of time before he takes the Hokage position.
Jiraiya shared the same thought, since Konoha's own Nine-Tails couldn't defeat the Uchiha.
There was also a One-Tailed Jinchuriki in the Uchiha clan's territory.
Just then, the three travelers looked up into the distance.
A huge white ball of light appeared above Konoha.
The muffled thunder-like sound and the violent tremor only reached this side at that moment.
Tsunade and Jiraiya's expressions changed.
He quickly sped up and headed towards Konoha.
Silent was a beat late, but quickly followed behind.
