Chapter 116 Kakashi vs. Danzo
Chapter 116 Kakashi vs. Danzo
Ye Yu's comment was just a joke.
Kimoto Ichido naturally knew this, but he still patted him on the head.
"You brat, you dare to snitch on me, huh?"
Ye Yu awkwardly covered his head and said, "How could I dare?"
Kimoto, feigning seriousness, asked, "So you mean you've thought about it?"
Ye Yu's lips twitched slightly. "I admit defeat, okay? I was just being a smart aleck."
Kimoto Toichi then smiled.
Seeing the master and disciple interacting like this, Kakashi's lips curled up slightly.
This is exactly what he wanted to see. If Yoru became distant from Kimoto after having him as her teacher, he certainly wouldn't like Yoru like that.
As it turned out, Ye Yu did not disappoint him.
To change the subject, Ye Yu looked at Yamanaka Fu and asked, "So what do we do now? How should we deal with him?"
Kakashi and Kimoto looked at each other. Kimoto stood up, patted Ye Yu on the shoulder and said, "Leave it to us as teachers to handle it. You just rest assured and don't worry about these things."
Yoru wanted to say something.
Kakashi echoed Kimoto's words, "Listen to Kimoto, you don't need to worry about these things. You shouldn't get involved in these matters right now. We'll handle it."
Seeing that the two were so insistent, Ye Yu didn't say anything more.
Kimoto walked up to Yamanaka Fu and smiled, "You really think Yoru is a brat. He's much stronger than you now."
Kimoto Ichiro proudly muttered to himself.
Kakashi rolled his eyes at him and said, "Alright, stop daydreaming and get him away."
Kimoto Ichido didn't say anything more and carried the mountain wind on his shoulders.
As he left, Kimoto looked at Yoru and smiled, "Get some rest. Oh, and tomorrow you need to go and explain things to Tako and Kiki about what's been going on these past few days."
Ye Yu nodded.
Ye Yu and the others had only worked on two missions together, so the time they spent together was too short.
There wasn't much emotion involved.
However, Yoru does quite like Yamada Kikino and Hon-Yotako.
Both of them have good personalities.
Actually, compared to Naruto and Sasuke, who need to be coaxed all the time, Yoru still prefers Kizuki and Tako.
Kakashi simply nodded to Yoru, and then disappeared from Yoru's room with Kimoto.
Yoru looked at the now empty room and shook his head. "Danzo, I thought I could get away with it. It seems I overestimated you."
Yoru thought Danzo wouldn't be so free, but who knew he would make Yoru's calculations wrong.
Kimoto Ichido and Kakashi, who had come from Yoru, quickly arrived at Root's headquarters carrying Yamanaka Kaze.
Danzo, who was sitting at the Root headquarters waiting for news from Yamanaka Fu, had a bad feeling.
He, whose face had been gloomy, heard footsteps approaching from afar.
Danzo looked ahead, following the sound of footsteps getting closer.
Danzo's gaze sharpened slightly, and he appeared somewhat nervous.
Finally, the owner of the footsteps appeared in the light.
Danzo, however, stood up with a gloomy expression.
He was leaning on a cane, and his face looked extremely pale.
The two people who appeared were Kimoto Ichido and Kakashi, with Kimoto Ichido carrying the still unconscious Yamanaka Fu.
Danzo suppressed his anger as he watched Kakashi and Kimoto Ichido carry Yamanaka Kaze to him.
Danzo's men appeared before him, swords drawn, watching the two men approaching with suspicion.
However, cold sweat poured down beneath the ninja masks of those few roots.
As fellow Anbu ninjas, how could they not know how powerful the two people in front of them were?
Moreover, they were two people who previously held very high positions in the secret service.
One was the head of the secret combat unit, and the other was the head of one of the divisions of the interrogation department.
One elite Jonin, one Jonin, and they were just a few Chunin.
Even Aburame Torune, an elite Jonin who stood in Danzo's way, was under immense pressure.
He was confident he could defeat Kimoto Ichido, but he had no confidence whatsoever against Kakashi.
Kakashi is currently the strongest Jonin in Konoha.
At least on the surface, he is the strongest. In fact, there are few people in Konoha who are stronger than him.
Most importantly, Yamanaka Fu, who was being carried by Kimoto, was also a Jonin.
But they were actually defeated.
He knew very well how strong the wind was in the mountains, yet he was still defeated.
The pressure on the woman extracting the root is extremely high.
Seeing how much pressure Kakashi and Kimoto put on their subordinates, Danzo became even angrier.
He said grimly, "All of you, step back."
He didn't want them to continue embarrassing themselves here.
Unless Kakashi and Kimoto have a desire to betray Konoha, neither of them would dare to attack him, a high-ranking member of Konoha.
Although the Root ninjas were reluctant, they no longer hesitated when they saw Danzo's gloomy face.
He vanished from Danzo's sight in an instant.
Aburame Tokine, however, did not leave.
Danzo didn't care. Aburame Torune was strong enough. Although he might not be a match for Kakashi, he wouldn't be too far behind.
Moreover, Aburame Torune was his confidant, and his status within Root differed from that of other ninjas.
When Kakashi and Kimoto Ichido walked up to Danzo, Kimoto Ichido released Yamanaka Kaze.
Danzo gritted his teeth in a somber mood.
"Kakashi, Kimoto Ichido, are you planning a rebellion?"
"They actually attacked a ninja from the same village."
Kakashi was very serious when dealing with Danzo, as he had once served as Danzo's subordinate for a period of time.
However, he was quickly taken away by the third generation.
Kakashi and Kimoto Ichido remained calm in the face of Danzo's preemptive strike.
Kakashi looked at Danzo seriously and said, "We don't want to rebel, but we don't know what Lord Danzo is trying to do by attacking our own people?"
Kakashi wasn't afraid of Danzo at all.
Danzo can't control him, and the Third Hokage wouldn't do anything to Kakashi because of Danzo.
Danzo gritted his teeth, his anger reaching its peak.
He was a high-ranking official in Konoha. Although Kakashi was once the captain of the Anbu, his status was ultimately not as high as his.
Danzo really had no way to deal with Kakashi.
The Third Hokage valued Kakashi highly, and Kakashi had a much stronger influence among the younger generation in Konoha than he did.
The only thing Danzo could use to keep Kakashi in check was his status.
If Kakashi really didn't care, Danzo really couldn't do anything about it.
Danzo gritted his teeth, suppressing his anger, and said in a gloomy tone, "I just want to know what kind of people the Third Hokage promoted without regard for the rules."
"Shouldn't I, as the Hokage's advisor, do this?"
Kakashi sneered, "Lord Danzo, I think you should have some idea of what methods your subordinates will use."
"Kakashi!"
Danzo was enraged and shouted at Kakashi.
"Mind your place. Do you know who you're talking to?"
"Didn't Hiruzen teach you manners?"
Aburame Torune, standing to the side, frowned, already preparing to unleash a ninjutsu on Kakashi.
His face had turned purple and was covered with poisonous insects invisible to the naked eye.
Kakashi, however, did not pay any attention.
Kimoto Toichi is also ready to make a move.
Danzo desperately wanted to kill Kakashi at that moment.
But he knew very well that Kakashi was different from ordinary ninjas, and killing him would have a huge impact.
Danzo was naturally confident that he could kill Kakashi. His arm full of Sharingan, along with Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan, gave him enough confidence to kill Kakashi.
