Danzo's Helplessness

Zhang Miao's genjutsu world was very realistic. It was so real that even the "old fox" like Danzo could not help but indulge in it. In the end, even he forgot that the world he was in was fake. From this, it could be seen the power of this genjutsu.

It could be said that as long as someone had an obsession in his heart and Zhang Miao knew his obsession, then he would definitely be affected, and there was a great possibility that it would leave a psychological trauma.

This was Danzo's current situation.

Although he already knew that everything just now was an illusion, when Zhang Miao mentioned Asuma's name just now, he could not help but feel a sense of anger deep in his heart.

It was a feeling of betrayal!

As soon as Zhang Miao finished speaking, he stood up abruptly and walked to the window, just in time to see Asuma walking towards the hospital with a fruit basket not far away.

"Hiss... It really is him!"

Seeing this scene, the corner of Danzo's mouth twitched violently and he snorted coldly.

"Hmph, go tell him that I don't want to see him. Also, ask him to take all the things back!"

"Roger!" Hearing Danzo's words, Zhang Miao immediately agreed and then turned to go downstairs.

Danzo stood by the window and watched. He saw Zhang Miao walk out of the door of the Hospital and say something to Asuma. The latter nodded and left with the fruit basket.

Seeing this scene, Danzo felt a little better. When Zhang Miao returned to his ward, he nodded with a look of gratification.

"Ryunosuke, you did well!"

Looking at Danzo's smile, Zhang Miao was also laughing wildly in his heart.

"Hahahaha, if Danzo knew that the Asuma just now was my shadow clone, would he vomit blood?"

Of course, Zhang Miao would never say such a thing. At this moment, he deliberately pretended to be puzzled.

"Master, I think you don't seem to like Asuma. I think he is a good person, and he is the son of the Hokage. Do you have any problems with him?"

"Uh..." Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Danzo's face suddenly twitched, "You think too much. I don't dislike him. I just feel uncomfortable and want to be quiet."

Seeing that Danzo was still stubborn, the corners of Zhang Miao's mouth curled up again.

I was waiting for you to say this!

If Danzo clearly said that he did not like Asuma and told Zhang Miao not to mention this name in front of him in the future, then Zhang Miao would probably feel a bit disappointed.

But now that he wanted to be stubborn, it was exactly what Zhang Miao wanted.

Therefore, in the next few days, when Zhang Miao came to the hospital to see him, he would always "inadvertently" mention Asuma's name, which made Danzo want to vomit blood every time.

With no other choice, he could only leave the hospital in advance and go home to recuperate, but what he did not expect was that Zhang Miao, who usually did not come for half a month, was now visiting so diligently.

He sent fruits, eggs, and every day. Danzo was deeply moved, constantly sighing in his heart that this disciple had not been accepted for nothing.

The only drawback was that every time he visited, Zhang Miao always inadvertently slipped Asuma's name out of his mouth, making the old ninja very helpless.

"When did you have such a good relationship with Asuma? Why do you always mention his name?"

Of course, this sentence was not easy for Danzo to say, so he could only bear it. But after a month, he could not bear it anymore. He simply did not stay in his own home and went to other places to live.

Danzo was a senior advisor of Konoha for more than ten years, and he was the leader of Root, so he was not short of money, so he had several safe houses around the village.

Initially, he thought that Zhang Miao would not be able to find him if he moved out.

However, he soon realized that he was wrong. He had only moved out for less than a day when Zhang Miao came looking for him with fruits.

"Oh, Master, your injuries haven't healed yet. How can you move around? Fortunately, Yuji's eyes are very keen. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to find you in a short period of time. Come, these are the fruits I just bought. It's even better than the one bought by Asuma last time!"

Danzo: "... "

"Fuck, why the Byakugan is so helpful here?!"

"Also, can you not mention that name in front of me? If you keep mentioning that name, my injuries won't heal fast enough!"

Although his heart was very bitter, facing such a good disciple who cared about him so much, Danzo could only squeeze out a smile.

"That... Thank you. I'm just looking for a change of pace.., so my injuries can heal faster!"

"Oh, I understand!" As soon as Danzo finished speaking, Zhang Miao immediately nodded, "This is quite similar to the saying 'A crafty rabbit has three burrows. I heard that people who are afraid of death are all like this. Master, are you really afraid of death?"

Danzo: "... "

"Is it embarrassing for me to be afraid of death?"

"Damned child, your words are so evil. Are you trying to anger me to death so that you can inherit my "Root"?"

Danzo felt that this disciple was good at everything, except that his mouth was particularly poisonous. Every time he wanted to vomit blood, he had a serious look on his face, which made him unable to get angry.

"No, if this goes on, I'm afraid I will be angered to death by this kid before I become a Hokage. I have to find a way to divert his attention so that he won't anger me all day!"

Thinking of this, Danzo suddenly raised his eyebrows and then smiled at Zhang Miao.

"Haha... that... Ryunosuke, I remember S4 telling me that you are very interested in Wood Release, right?"

"Yes!" As soon as Danzo finished speaking, Zhang Miao immediately nodded, "That is the First Hokage's technique. My favorite jutsu is the Deep Forest Emergence! Master, do you know how to use it?"

Danzo: "... "

"If I knew it, I would have been a Hokage a long time ago!"

Thinking of this, the corner of Danzo's mouth twitched twice again, and then he tried to squeeze out a smile at Zhang Miao.

"Heh... Hehe, the Deep Forest Emergence is a relatively high-level technique, and you are not suitable to learn it right now. How about this, I will find someone to teach you some basic Wood Release jutsus. When you are able to learn them, I will teach you how to use the Deep Forest Emergence. How about that?"

Hearing Danzo says this, Zhang Miao immediately sneered in his heart.

"Hmph, you're lying to a child. Do you think I don't know that Wood Release is a Bloodline Limit? If I don't have it, I wouldn't be able to learn it for the rest of my life, right? What wishful thinking!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Miao was ready to refuse, but just as the words were about to come out of his mouth, he suddenly remembered something.

"I remember that in the whole Konoha, only Yamato knows Wood Release. If Danzo wants someone to teach me ordinary Wood Release, he must be referring to him. Then, can I collect his Ninja Fragments?"

After realizing this, Zhang Miao immediately smiled at Danzo.

"Hehe, Master is still good as ever. I will definitely learn Wood Release jutsus. After I learn it, I will show it to you!"

This was what Danzo had been waiting for, so as soon as Zhang Miao finished speaking, he could not help but burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha... Good, as expected of my disciple. I will be waiting for your good news. If you can't learn it, you can't come to see me!"

"No problem, hehe!"

The master and disciple looked at each other and saw deep joy in each other's eyes, as well as... smugness from the successful scheme.
