Unscrupulous

Flame Barrier!!

Facing the murderous intent erupted from Orochimaru in front of him, Hao did not hesitate to manipulate Baby Of Fire.

His mind moved, and the Baby Of Fire instantly came in front of him, and used the flame barrier, guarding him like his most loyal servant.

Unlike the Aburame Root who was just killed by himself , Orochimaru in front of him is a solid Kage-level and the strongest boss in the early stage of the original plot.

In the face of such a powerful opponent as one of the Sannin, Hao does not allow himself to have any carelessness and negligence.

"Oh? You still have some other skills?"

"I have always been curious about your special Kekkei Genkai.. It seems that I finally have a chance to experience it for myself today..."

Seeing the battle posture of Hao in front of him manipulating his 'summoning creature', Orochimaru's snake eyes narrowed slightly.

He has seen the amazing combat effectiveness of the Baby of Fire's strong bombardment of Aburame Noto just now, and now using another technique he has not yet shown.

In addition, Hao himself has not yet used his rumoured Fire Kekkei Genkai, so even Orochimaru dares not underestimate the boy who is only eight years old in front of him.

"You don't have to take action for such a trivial matter, Orochimaru."

Seeing that a Kage ninja was about to make his move under the moonlit night, Danzo standing next to him suddenly opened his mouth to stop Orochimaru from taking action.

"Asakura Hao, I didn't expect your strength to reach such a level. It seems that you have benefited a lot from the last infiltration of Sunagakure..."

"But this also shows that I was not mistaken at the beginning, your talent is still above Uchiha Shisui."

At the same time, Danzo's eyes turned to Hao in front of him, his left eye was deep and gloomy.

"But in any case, the task of diving into Iwa needs Nono to carry out..."

"And now we should also take away the kid who is hiding in the house."

Swish!!

As Danzos words fell, dozens of figures flashed from the grass around the crowd, surrounding the whole Konoha orphanage!

The unified ninja costume and the unified pattern mask are the ninjas of the Root, Danzo's subordinates!

This old guy... even brought so many people?!

Seeing dozens of root organisation ninjas suddenly around, Hao was shocked.

It doesn't matter. Even if he is besieged, he can use the Fire Flight or Teleport to escape, but Yakushi Nono and the children in the orphanage...

"It seems that you already understand the current situation..."

"Yes, if you refuse, these ninjas will kill all the children in the house!"

Looking at Hao who's face changed in front of him, Danzo opened his mouth in a cold tone, and the meaning of the threat was self-evident.

"Damn old cyclops..."

In the face of the threat of Danzo in front of him, Hao immediately clenched his fist, it seemed as if flames of anger where burning in his eyes!

He has never been so eager to kill a person as he is now!

Danzo's despicable behaviour has completely ignited the flame of anger in his heart.

"Enough!"

"Stop..I …agree to your request."

But at this time, Yakushi Nono, who had been silent, suddenly opened her mouth.

"Dean?"

Seeing that the Yakushi Nono actually agreed to Danzo's request, Hao was stunned.

"No need to say anything anymore, Hao."

"Anyway, I can't let those children suffer any harm!"

Looking at the wooden house of the orphanage not far from the side, there was a firm look on Yakushi Nono's face.

"It's just going to wrong you and Kabuto..."

Looking at Hao in front of her and Kabuto coming out of the wooden house, Yakushi Nono showed a trace of guilt on her face.

What the hell?!

Why is this still hapenning?!

Hearing the decision of Yakushi Nono, and seeing that what he was most worried about was inevitable, Hao couldn't help clenching his fist.

How familiar is such a picture?

In the original plot, Yakushi Nono was forced to go to Iwagakure to perform a spy mission, and Yakushi Kabuto was taken into the root to become a ninja active in Konoha.

Finally, Danzo used a plot to plan Kabuto and Nono to kill each other. Kabuto, who once again lost his meaning in life, was invited to join the Sound Village by Orochimaru.

Why?

Why did things still turn like this?

Facing the decision of Yakushi Nono, in the face of this immutable fact.

The nails of his hands were deeply embedded in his flesh. Hao's heart surged up with an inexplicable anger. He was angry that he was still not strong enough.

If his strength is as strong as Hashirama Senju or the Sage of Six Paths, what if Danzo threatens the children of the orphanage?

As long as he has an idea, the power of the Wooden Release to change the landscape and annihilate everything, he can directly let Danzo and these ninjas evaporate from the world in an instant!

Therefore, in the final analysis, weakness is the original sin.

It all comes to the point that he is not strong enough to protect the people he values.

Even at the same age, there is no one in the world who can do better than himself.

But in the overall environment of the ninja world, he is still not a real strong person..

"Well, Nono... Sure enough, you still understand."

Ignoring Hao in front of him, as if he had lost his soul, Danzo smiled and said in a low voice, and let the ninjas of the roots around him take Kabuto out of the house.

"After all... This child named Kabuto might want to be a ninja of Konoha, right?"

Looking at Kabuto that was brought to him, Danzo looked at the boy with his deep eyes.

The young Kabuto looked up timidly at Danzo in front of him, and his eyes under his glasses were silent.

"Hey! Kabuto!!"

"Are you going to abandon our fetters from the past three years? Come back!!"

Just then, a familiar voice came, and it was unknown when Urushi had stood at the door of the wooden house of the orphanage.

In addition to him, other children from the orphanage also came out one after another. They were awakened by the battle outside just now and happened to see the scene of Kabuto being taken away by Danzo.
