In the remote and gloomy forest, the clash of metal, groans, and the sound of bodies hitting the ground echoed continuously.

With the last wave of dust settling, everything quickly returned to calm.

This was the restricted forest area designated by Konoha.

Except for the Root ninja, neither villagers nor ordinary Konoha ninja were allowed to enter.

Due to the remote location, even if there was intense fighting here, there was still no reaction from within Konoha Village.

Even if nearby Konoha ninja sensed something was wrong, because of the notorious reputation of Root and Danzo, they would not dare to act without orders from the village.

At this moment, in a clearing filled with kunai, shuriken, and strewn with corpses.

Holding up a Root ninja so that their eyes were level with his own, Gensou's pitch-black pupils spun rapidly as if forming seals.

A minute later, having gathered enough information, Gensou casually tossed the Root ninja aside.

Thud.

The back of the fallen ninja's head struck the tip of a shuriken embedded in the ground, ensuring his death.

Thus, the entire team sent to capture Sosuke and Tobidara was annihilated. (I changed the name of the character. I didn't like it. Now is a little better)

Gensou didn't linger. His figure flashed as he quickly headed towards the location of the Root base according to the information he had gathered.

Ten minutes later.

Gensou stopped, looking around at what seemed like just another ordinary forest area, indistinguishable from any other part of the forest.

However, the infamous Root base of Konoha was hidden here.

Following the information copied from the Root ninja, Gensou quickly formed a series of hand seals.

Soon, an invisible barrier dissipated.

Ten meters ahead, what appeared to be just a part of the forest revealed a cold iron gate leading downwards.

This was the headquarters officially referred to as the "ANBU Training Department."

Boom!

Gensou had no interest in formalities. With a punch, he shattered the iron gate and strode inside.

"Who goes there? How dare you!"

"Impudent!"

The two Root ninja stationed at the gate, responsible for recording the comings and goings, were first dumbfounded as they watched the symbolic gate of the Root base being forcibly broken.

This was unprecedented in decades.

Then, seeing someone who was clearly not a Root ninja boldly walking in without any attempt at stealth, their faces turned cold. Without needing to ask, they used the Body Flicker Technique, full of killing intent, to charge at the intruder, determined to take him down.

The next second.

Bang! Bang!

The two ninja were sent flying like cannonballs, embedding deeply into the wall with a crash, blood seeping from their masks, barely alive.

Step. Step. Step.

Firm, resolute footsteps echoed through the closed and cold underground base.

"Dare? Impudent?"

Gensou emerged from the shadows, looking at the fully activated Root base ahead, calmly declaring, "Today, Root will be erased from the ninja world."

The alarm at the Root base blared incessantly.

In a secret room, Danzo's already gloomy face turned even darker as he listened to the increasingly intense and approaching sounds from above.

Soon, a Root ninja arrived to report, "Danzo-sama, an intruder has breached the base."

"One person?" Danzo squinted in surprise, "Who is it?"

The ninja replied, "Based on appearance, it is tentatively identified as Sosuke."

"Impossible!"

Danzo immediately dismissed this absurd conclusion.

It couldn't be that unremarkable medical ninja Sosuke from the records.

"Knowing his identity is exposed, instead of fleeing, he dares to attack us. How bold!" Danzo's tone was icy.

In all these years, he had never encountered someone who showed such disdain for Root.

"Gather the men, follow me, and eliminate the intruder!"

Danzo's cane struck the floor heavily as he gave the order.

He wanted to see who dared to be so arrogant, thinking they had multiple lives.

"Danzo-sama, should we inform the village about the attack on Root?" Aburame Torune, one of Danzo's bodyguards, asked.

"No need."

Danzo refused without hesitation.

Root's acceptance by the Konoha high command was because it was also a sharp sword against the enemy.

If one day it was found that the sword had dulled, then Root would have no reason to exist.

Therefore, not only should they not inform Konoha, but they also had to conceal the situation.

The key was to swiftly and completely eliminate the daring intruder.

Danzo wasted no time, getting up and, with his cane tapping the floor, led Torune and a group of Root ninja towards the battlefield.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

A myriad of ninja tools shot at Gensou from various dark corners.

Gensou didn't even look, his palm opened, and a violent gale dispersed all the tools.

Suddenly, a sharp blade flashed.

Gensou's gaze shifted to see a Root ninja wielding a kunai wrapped in wind chakra, slicing through the gale and stabbing at him.

Gensou extended a finger.

Clang!

His finger, as hard as black iron, struck the attacking kunai.

The force caused the Root ninja's arm to bend back involuntarily.

Rip.

The sharp kunai pierced his heart.

With disbelief, the ninja knelt and could not rise again.

Gensou walked past him, casually picking up the kunai that had just performed meritoriously, wrapping it in wind chakra, and with a single step, flashed into the midst of a charging group of Root ninja.

Bright flowers of blood bloomed continuously.

Hearts, necks, eye sockets, back of heads...

With each plain and unadorned stab, no matter how the Root ninja resisted, they could only futilely fall, their eyes dimming.

Blood flowed from their bodies, merging to form a long red carpet guiding Gensou deeper into the base.

Soon, led by the corpses of over twenty Root ninja, Gensou arrived at a spacious underground well.

Just as he was about to crush an annoying little insect above his head.

"Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere!"

A highly compressed air bullet shot at him like a bullet.

Gensou caught and crushed the Vacuum Sphere.

He looked towards where it came from.

Danzo, looking very conspicuous, stood on a suspended steel bridge with a large group of Root ninja, his eyes cold, filled with killing intent and suspicion, staring hard at Gensou.

Seeing Gensou stop.

Finally, Danzo tapped his cane heavily and coldly asked, "Who are you?"
