Naruto: Child of Chakra - Chapter 137

“Lord Dama… I have decided. I want my eyes back from Danzo… Um… will you help me get it back?” Shisui asked, though he was a bit embarrassed.

Shiroken smiled, “Of course, I was waiting for you to ask this. You are already like a son to me, so it’s normal that I help you. Although I don’t know what being a father is like. But since most in the Nidama Clan see me as a father figure, so why not.”

“HELL YEAH! LET’S GO AND GET Shisui-Chan’s eyes.” Chomei cheered up excitedly. He just wanted to get out of the game.

“BOOO YEAH! Let’s gooo…” Son Goku also agreed.

Shisui was overwhelmed, seeing that the tailed beasts and Shiroken cared for him more than the people he knew before. “Thank you, Lord Dama and Saints.”

Shiroken chuckled, “Yes yes, we will go there soon. In fact, I’ve got some juicy news. Kumogakure wants to talk to me as soon as possible. They probably want to attain peace. But, we are going to scare the hell out of them by having you all stand behind me like mountains.”

“Hehe… I can already see them shivering.” Kurama growled.

“When will we be going, Lord Dama?” Shisui asked.

“Umm… in a day. We are going to first gather all the evidence against Danzo and then give him a public trial.” Shiroken revealed. What he didn’t say was that many clans were also going to suffer soon.

…

Konoha,

Danzo was coming to the final stages of his plan. It was simple, kill Darui in a way that the blame falls directly on the Hokage and the village. The moment Kumo starts a war, Iwa would jump in to bite Konoha.

Only Kumo and Iwa have tailed beasts now and hopefully, they will use their powers wisely. Why was he confident? Well, because he had eyes and ears everywhere. He knows that Kumogakure and Iwagakure know about Shiroken collecting the tailed beasts.

Due to this, they had reinforced the tailed beast seals. Now, they made it so that the moment the Jinchuriki falls unconscious, he will die along with the beast.

Their strategy was to never let the beast get in Shiroken’s hand and instead always find it every time it reincarnates. But, Danzo didn’t know that Shiroken was already headed to Kumo.

He gathered all of his strongest Root ninjas and took them with him. His destination was the Forest of Death. The place he had elaborately planned to send Darui to with the lure of secrets of Konoha and Hyuga Clan.

Byakugan was a sought after eye by Kumogakure and Darui, being the lazy guy, went right into the trap. He expected the Anbu to be watching him at all times and that they would not let anything happen to him in this village.

However, the Anbu were also compromised. They had been compromised ever since Hiruzen allowed a new division of Anbu, Root, to be made.

“Sai, Unmo Samidare, Dajimu, Tera, Terai, Fū and Torune. All of you are to surround the target and leave him no way to leave. For the rest, I will handle it myself.” Danzo ordered.

…

Konoha’s Hokage Office

“He’s doing it?” Tsunade inquired.

Jiraiya nodded, “Yes, he is. The man really wants to start a war with Kumo. This is direct treason and amounts to death.”

They turned to look at Hiruzen, who looked much skinnier than before. He didn’t even have words to defend Danzo with. “He… he has gone too far. I will not speak for him. Whatever punishment he gets, it will not be enough.”

Jiraiya nodded, “Then… should we go with the forces?”

Tsunade got up and put on her coat, “Yes, gather the Shinobi forces. I heard Danzo has many Sharingan, and one of them particularly is Shisui Uchiha’s eye. If we don’t nab him immediately, he might use Kotoamatsukami on everyone. He can basically make the whole village his slave.”

Jiraiya shared her concerns as well. He also knew why Shiroken wasn’t here. Or it was right to say that they didn’t ask him, since they feel that if they can’t even deal with this then what was their use.

So after gathering all the Jonin Shinobi forces, they entered the forest of death. With them were Guy, Shikaku, Inoichi Yamanaka, Chōza Akimichi, Hiashi Hyuga, Aburame Clan head, Haruno Clan head, Kohaku Clan head and a few more leading their respective clans. They were already told about how Danzo wanted to start a war. Of course, all of them were against it.

Soon, they arrived at the area. It was like holding a kunai behind someone, who was also holding a kunai on another person’s back. (A/N: While Shiroken watches from afar with a giant ass bazooka aimed at them. XD)

“Everyone, we must neutralise the threat in one go. Do not even give Danzo the time to remove his bandages. The moment he tries to do it, attack together.

We will circle towards them, taking out all Root members hiding there.” Tsunade ordered and moved in.

In a circle formation, they started to close in on the designated area. On their way, they found many Root ninjas, they quickly caught them. No matter how many, they could not overpower the entire Shinobi forces.

In the middle of the circle, Danzo was already face to face with Darui.

…

Inside the jungle, Darui was waiting for someone to appear. He knew it was a trap, but he wanted to see who set it up since that would decide the next steps of Kumogakure.

And when Danzo showed up, Darui sighed. ~It seems Konoha is overrated. Even its elder is ready to betray the village. I should take his head back home.~

Danzo still looked like a weak old man, it was all an act by him. To make others see him as weak and when the enemy is looking the other way, he will deliver a deadly strike.

“Lord Darui, thank you for your visit. Now I must send your dead body back to your home.” Danzo said.

“You do know that this will cause a war with us?” Darui asked.

Danzo scoffed, “I am no fool, boy. War is exactly what I want. War is not the worst of mankind, it’s the best of us. It creates opportunities, brings out our hidden strengths, creates heroes and roots out the weaklings of society.”

“So you want yourself to be rooted out? Good.” Darui mocked in a lazy voice.

Danzo scowled and took off his haori, revealing his bandage-ridden body. He then moved to untie the ones on his arm.

“ATTACK!”

This was when Danzo shivered, realising it was a trap from the start. Multiple shinobi appeared from the treeline and dashed towards him, some of the ones in the front had already sent their attacks.

He would surely die if he received all of them at once. But he smirked, “Huh… you miscalculated.”

*BAM*

All of a sudden Darui jumped in front of Danzo and stopped the attacks. He was in really bad shape after getting hit, but the man was still alive.

“TREAT DARUI FIRST!” Tsunade ordered loudly.

But… she noticed nobody was moving. “What are you doing?”

Danzo laughed loudly, “Hahaha… oh how foolish you have been, Tsunade. You were right at attacking me as soon as I tried to take the bandage off. But, you didn’t know that the Sharingan in my right eye does not need any direct view to cast its Genjutsu.

All is a blessing of the late Shisui. Now, I have a surprise for you. All Shinobi, attack Jiraiya and Tsunade. Kill them.” Danzo ordered.

“AAAAA…”

“HAAAA…”

Immediately the entire Shinobi forces of more than a thousand ninjas ran to attack Jiraiya and Tsunade.

“Well, this turned bad pretty quick. Any plans, Tsunade?” Jiraiya asked.

She looked at Danzo, “You used the Kotoamatsukami on us. How will you stop Lord Dama now?”

“Haha… All I need is half a day to use it again. Really, Hashirama’s cells are a work of art.” Danzo spoke mockingly.

Tsunade and Jiraiya in the meantime fought their own people. The problem was, they could not kill anyone, because that’s exactly what Danzo wants. If they kill anybody, Danzo can declare them as traitors and also pin Darui’s death on them.

“We must stand until Lord Dama comes,” Jiraiya said, having already sent a toad.

…

In the Sky,

*Crunch*

Shiroken ate a fried crunchy dumpling. On his left stood Shisui and on his right stood Monari. The two were in the air due to Shiroken’s grace.

“Um… Lord Dama, shouldn’t we intervene? What if Darui dies?” Shisui asked.

Shiroken chuckled, “Oh no no… he won’t die. And we should let Tsunade and Jiraiya fight, only by fighting will they learn their lessons. And about Danzo… I want him to use his eyes on us. I wonder how good Kotoamatsukami is from Monari’s Genjutsu, that can even put an Otsutsuki to eternal sleep.”
