When Izayoi got serious, the members of the Root Organization were instantly rendered powerless. Faced with the unstoppable forces of Attraction and Repulsion, they couldn't escape, and all their Ninja Techniques and Secret Techniques were mercilessly deflected and scattered. Even Genjutsu proved utterly ineffective. Even when they tried to flee, blending into the darkness, they were hunted down and killed by the Human Puppets skilled in Lightning Release Nature Transformation.
Soon, except for Shimura Danzo, who had been turned into a vegetable, and one individual who had hidden away—whom Izayoi deliberately spared—all members of the Root Organization were eliminated by the Black Hoe Family. As the Root members fell one by one, beams of light in various colors—green, blue, purple—flew from their corpses toward Izayoi.
"Decompose."
"Decompose."
"Decompose everything…"
Faced with the bombardment of system notifications, Izayoi chose to decompose everything. In an instant, his points skyrocketed, reaching—[97,277]. Looking at the number in the points column, Izayoi felt both joy and regret. He was happy because a single Root Organization had provided him with over 80,000 points, nearly one-tenth of the fragments needed for the unknown level. However, he regretted that this was the result of wiping them out entirely. Elite forces like the Root Organization were rare in the Shinobi World. For Izayoi, who could repeatedly farm Talents, this was a golden goose that could continuously produce wealth. The best approach would have been to return periodically to harvest them.
But Izayoi disliked being watched and had no intention of saving Hiruzen Sarutobi. To avoid being targeted by Shimura Danzo, Izayoi chose to strike first and eliminate him. Missing the Leaf Destruction Plan, Izayoi knew he wouldn't find such a perfect opportunity again. Even if he could kill them by force, it would inevitably cause a huge commotion. Although Izayoi's Transformation Technique was flawless, it couldn't alter Chakra fluctuations, posing a significant risk of exposure. Having already formed bonds in the Leaf Village, Izayoi had no desire to live the life of a feared rogue ninja.
With a few hand gestures, Izayoi summoned Shadow Clones from the Naka River to control a group of Puppets and load the bodies of the Root members into large Sealing Scrolls. Then, using Attraction, he lifted Shimura Danzo and headed in a specific direction. Only after Izayoi and the Puppets had left did a heavy breath emerge from a shadow near the ceiling. After a few breaths, the person held their breath again, not daring to dispel the Secret Technique's disguise. Escaping was even more out of the question. However, the hidden individual had memorized everything about Izayoi's transformation into Tendo Pain, his abilities, and his conversation with Shimura Danzo.
Boom—
Arriving at a cliff face connected to the Hokage Rock above, Izayoi placed his hand against it. Repulsion surged like waves, crashing into the cliff one after another. The stone, the metal within, and the Seals were all violently blasted apart. Soon, the entrance to a secret chamber appeared before Izayoi's eyes. Inside, several bookshelves were filled with Scrolls of various sizes and colors, divided into three sections: Intelligence, Ninja Techniques, and Secret Techniques. Notably, there was no Forbidden Technique section.
Shimura Danzo doesn't have the Forbidden Technique Scrolls in his possession? Izayoi would never believe that.
This was also one of the reasons why he had spared Danzo's life and hadn't killed him immediately.
Walking up to the bookshelf in the Secret Technique section, Izayoi merely glanced at it and couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. "Well, well, openly collecting the secret techniques of the Yamanaka Clan, the Nara Clan, and even the Akimichi Clan and Aburame Clan. This is something even the Hokage wouldn't dare to do. Truly worthy of being called 'Lord Danzo'!"
If this secret chamber were to be exposed, Shimura Danzo would undoubtedly incite widespread outrage.
Secret clan techniques—these were confidential ninja techniques and legacies within ninja clans that not everyone was qualified to learn.
They were the foundation of every ninja clan! Even Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Hokage, wouldn't dare to scheme for these secret techniques of the clans.
From this, one could see just how much power Shimura Danzo wielded in the Leaf Village and how audacious he was.
What the village has, I can take. What the village doesn't have, I possess.
Removing this tumor in advance was indeed the right decision.
After scanning the bookshelf for a few moments, Izayoi quickly found what he was looking for.
He pulled out a small red scroll from the pile of scrolls. On the seal were the words—Mind Reading Technique.
"Since I haven't awakened the Spiritual Sphere yet, I'll make do with this secret technique for now," Izayoi muttered as he opened the scroll and began reading.
In no time, Izayoi had mastered the Mind Reading Technique, the secret art that allowed the Yamanaka Clan to firmly control the interrogation department.
The Yin Release Chakra of the Ultimate Eye Technique, along with the Nature Transformation automatically acquired upon awakening the Tenseigan, made learning any ninja technique feel like cheating for Izayoi.
Especially since his Chakra Control was at the golden level.
This talent was second only to the Tenseigan in terms of how much it aided Izayoi.
Without this talent, Izayoi would have, at most, mastered the Super Hurricane Consecutive Spheres or developed Uzumaki Naruto's Wind Release: Rasen Shuriken by now. He wouldn't have been able to effortlessly fuse two or three Nature Transformations into various Secret Arts.
If this talent couldn't be further elevated in the future, then after upgrading the Otsutsuki Bloodline to an unknown new level, Izayoi's next step would be to upgrade his Chakra Control to a red-tier Talent.
"Ninja Art: Mind Reading Technique!"
Placing Shimura Danzo on the ground, Izayoi reached out and placed his hand on Danzo's head. Powerful Yin Release Chakra instantly seeped into his brain, beginning to extract memories.
Soon, Izayoi obtained the information he wanted.
"So, they're all stored in the clan's territory. As expected of someone so brazen," Izayoi murmured to himself. Then, he seized control of the Shadow Clone, summoned a Human Puppet, and drove a blade into Shimura Danzo's neck, ending the life of this source of calamity.
A purple and a blue beam of light flew out from Shimura Danzo's corpse and seeped into Izayoi's body.
After choosing to decompose it, Izayoi's points finally broke through the 100,000 mark.
Immediately after, Izayoi carried Shimura Danzo's corpse out of the secret chamber, retracing his steps to ensure that the figure lurking in the shadows witnessed Danzo's lifeless body.
At the same time, a large number of puppets flickered into the chamber, swiftly emptying it of all the scrolls.
Shimura Danzo had toiled for decades, painstakingly nurturing his elite subordinates, amassing various Ninja Techniques and Secret Techniques through all sorts of means, and sacrificing countless spies to gather valuable intelligence. Yet, all of it had now fallen into Izayoi's hands.
The Leaf Destruction Plan had only just begun, and not all the villagers had been evacuated to the shelters. Yet, half of the Leaf Village's foundation had already been seized by Izayoi.
Even Hiruzen Sarutobi's closest friend had left this world before him.
But this was far from enough! As Izayoi stepped out of the underground base, he glanced in the direction of the central street, a faint smile playing on his lips, before disappearing with the Body Flicker Technique.
