(NARUTO) -- CHAPTER 21: Exit Strategy

Danzo looked at Yuri with a dark face, and at the same time, he became increasingly impatient.

He couldn't take Yuri away for long. There were too many people watching in the village. If he couldn't win the boy over in a short time, he could only...

Danzo removed all his "roots" and entered the torture room alone.

"Kid, you only have two choices now: Join ROOT and help me exterminate the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan for the sake of Konoha, or... Die."

Danzo inserted the kunai into the table, his fierce eyes showing no trace of killing intent.

"Shimura Danzo, how could I do that?!" Yuri shouted.

"Then what do you mean...?" Danzo glared.

"You have to pay more!!!"

The torture room fell into a deathly silence.

Danzo:???

Shimura Danzo swore he had never seen a bastard like Yuri in his life.

"So what do you want?"

Danzo Shimura didn't say anything, but he was relieved, he would soon have a great tool.

"I want the scroll of seals."

Yuri spoke without hesitation.

"Those who guard the scroll of seals are ANBU. For you, it should be easy to get it, right?"

"As long as you allow me to learn the forbidden techniques of the scroll of seals as much as I want, I will join ROOT."

Danzo couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Yuri had a personality similar to Orochimaru.

Orochimaru is obsessed with studying Kekkei Genkai, but his disciple is obsessed with forbidden techniques?

"What if I say no?"

Danzo still calm, asked curiously.

"I carry eight hundred detonating papers with me."

Yuri opened his coat, and sure enough, there were detonating symbols inside his clothes. Danzo's eyes widened and he watched helplessly as Yuri pulled out stacks of detonating papers from his clothes. "Danzo-sama, you don't have to do this if you don't want to. In the worst case scenario, we'll all be buried together." Yuri has the storage that comes with the roulette. Although she doesn't use it much at normal times, the detonating papers she took out from her body at this critical moment are of great help. Seeing this scene, Danzo, who had not yet obtained the Sharingan, fell silent. Finally, Danzo called the ROOT ninjas and ordered them to fetch the sealing scroll. "By the way, bring some fuinjutsu scrolls from the Uzumaki clan. There should be some in the room where the sealing scroll is kept." "Yuri Winters, don't overdo it!" Danzo's face darkened. This brat simply wasn't taking him seriously!

"Danzo-sama, there's a misunderstanding!"

Yuri directly faced the old man.

"Think about it, after you place the cursed seal on my tongue, won't I completely become one of your subordinates, Danzo-sama?"

"You're simply giving some sealing techniques to your future subordinate."

"As the boss, you're not even willing to invest so much in your subordinate. How can you expect a subordinate with perfect potential like me to bring you any return?"

"So… it's not that I want the Uzumaki clan's sealing scroll and sealing technique for myself, but I want it for you!"

Danzo: "..."

To be honest, at that moment he even felt that what the boy said made sense.

But after reacting, the old fox was about to refute when he heard the other party add again.

"I can first be planted with the cursed seal. Will that put your mind at ease, Danzo-sama?"

"Okay, as long as you receive the seal first, I'll have someone get them for you."

Danzo was certain that after Yuri received the cursed seal, or rather, the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal, Yuri wouldn't be able to escape from him.

The overly confident Danzo chose to make this exchange with Yuri.

After implanting the seals, Danzo, who was in a great mood, threw the scroll of seals and a scroll with sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan to Yuri.

Danzo once again returned to his indifferent appearance and said to Yuri in a somber tone:

"Yuri Winters, from now on you must obey all my orders, no matter what they are, understand?"

"I understand, Danzo-sama!"

"However, it is better for you to survive first and then talk about it."

Without waiting for Danzo to understand, Yuri suddenly activated all the detonating tags while silently thinking:

(Return!)

Eight hundred detonating tags exploded one after another, turning the entire torture room into a sea of ​​explosions.

The blazing flames swept through half of the base, and neither the loud collapse nor the explosion could be covered up.

The ROOT ninjas continued to use ninjutsu to clear the ground. Suddenly, a figure broke through the ground and rushed out of the place.

There was no doubt that this person was Danzo, who had been very proud until just now.

Danzo was seen escaping with his entire body burned. At this moment, he was howling like a demon crawling out of hell.

"DAMN BOY!! Find him quickly! If he's dead, I want his corpse here! If he's alive, I'll torture him myself."

............

............

In just a moment, the news that Danzo's ROOT had taken Yuri away at night under the guise of Orochimaru spread throughout Konoha.

In the same way, the explosion at the base where 'Root' was located also spread to all the major forces.

"WHERE IS DANZO, HIRUZEN!?"

At this moment, Tsunade was like a raging lioness. The explosion of her chakra continued to destroy the ground, and the ninjas all over the Hokage Building hid far away.

Hiruzen, who heard Tsunade's roar from afar, felt like he might have a heart attack at any moment.

Following the two broken doors, Tsunade stormed in.

"Should every last heir of the Senju Clan die pointlessly for Konoha!?"

Tsunade's voice spread throughout the Hokage Building, whether it was the members of the Nara clan or the ninjas from other clans, they quickly fled the place, no one would be stupid enough to try to stop Tsunade.

No one in their right mind could stay in the place.

Even Hiruzen hated Danzo in his heart at this moment.

But no matter what happened, he still had to wipe Danzo's ass now.

"Tsunade, please calm down first. Right now, Yuri Winters is probably not dead."

Hiruzen wiped away his cold sweat and quickly said, "Right after the explosion, some members of the Uchiha clan rushed to the ROOT base, but except for Danzo who suffered burns and the Root ninjas who were injured and several dead, Yuri Winters was nowhere to be found."

"Some members of the Hyuga clan also searched the place with their Byakugans. The boy seemed to have disappeared out of nowhere. In other words, he probably ran away and hid somewhere."

Hiruzen's words made Tsunade control the chakra she was radiating. After regaining her senses, she took a deep breath, turned her head and ran towards the place where the explosion occurred.

.......

After hearing the explosion in the distance, Kurenai suddenly woke up.

Suddenly, she remembered what Yuri said and so she got up and got out of bed, hurriedly ran to Yuri's house and took out two letterheads as he said.

One was written for him and the other was written for Anko.

Kurenai looked at it for a long time under the moonlight and then carefully put the letter away.

She looked at the moon in the distance and said softly but firmly:

"I will become stronger before Yuri comes back!"

That night, Anko, to whom Yuhi Kurenai sent a letter, stayed up all night.

When she saw Orochimaru the next day, she spoke with firm eyes:

"Sensei, I will work hard to become stronger and catch up to Yuri."

"Hmm."

Orochimaru didn't even raise his head, his eyes fixed on the test tube.

"Yuri asked me to tell you something: if nothing unexpected happens, within a few years, the Third Shinobi War will break out."

"Yuri has always been intelligent and quick-witted, and I agree with that."

Orochimaru's voice was still calm.

"He also said that he will help you ascend to the position of Hokage when he returns. He also thanked her for taking care of him earlier."

A crack appeared on the glass wall of the test tube.

Orochimaru put down the reagent in his hand, washed his hands, and looked at Anko.

"Then, it will be up to you to convey my gratitude to me."

"Hey, why? Sensei, aren't you going alone?

Orochimaru turned his back and didn't answer.

Marvel Main World

Yuri slowly opened his eyes.

He looked at the clock on the wall. It seemed like less than 5 minutes had passed since he went to Naruto.

He could still hear the sound of Gwen and Felicia training upstairs.

Yuri sighed lightly, although he was glad that almost no time had passed since he went to Naruto's world.

He was a little helpless when he remembered that he couldn't use any of the powers he received there, although he still had all the knowledge, it was practically useless without chakra…

(I hope that in the future I can bring those powers here…)

Forgetting that, Yuri looked at the system interface in front of him.

Although he felt that he had done a perfect job in Naruto's world, he was still a little nervous
