# Chapter 20: Delivering Warmth to Danzo!
"According to Fugaku, Root's base is in a very remote place south of the Forest of Death."
"I don't need to search specifically. Once I get there, the people there should come out to welcome me."
Uzumaki Mizuki moved slowly in the shadows using the Blink Dagger and stealth.
He remembered the village routes clearly.
He also had an ability similar to a Sensory Ninja, using Magic Power to sense people around him.
This was all thanks to years of daily tasks, which gave him meticulous control over Magic Power.
Otherwise, forming a Rasengan with one hand wouldn't have been that easy.
What he lacked was just actual combat experience.
Uzumaki Mizuki arrived smoothly near the Forest of Death.
With Uchiha Fugaku's help, he knew the Police Force's patrol routes clearly.
He also knew the ANBU routes, because now the ANBU had deployed people to secretly monitor the Police Force.
With the two sides in a stalemate, it was easy to confirm the ANBU's positions.
As long as he stayed away from where the Police Force patrolled, he basically wouldn't run into the ANBU.
"Phew!"
"Let's begin!"
Uzumaki Mizuki slicked his hair back.
Then he walked openly and directly into the interior of the Forest of Death.
In less than two minutes, he was targeted.
"Who goes there!"
Two ninjas wearing masks and dressed as ANBU appeared directly in front of Uzumaki Mizuki.
One held a short blade, while the other held a shuriken.
Their tone was very cold, as if they would kill him at the slightest disagreement.
"Where is Danzo?"
Uzumaki Mizuki asked.
Hearing the words of the guy in golden armor before them, the two Root members attacked without hesitation.
Capture him first, talk later.
Using Body Flicker Technique directly, the two disappeared from Uzumaki Mizuki's sight.
When they reappeared, one was on the left and one on the right, charging directly at Uzumaki Mizuki, preparing for a joint attack to subdue him.
"Buzz!"
The pupils of the two Root members contracted.
Because they saw golden ripples suddenly appearing in front of them.
Too late to dodge.
Two golden chains, tipped with arrow-like points, instantly pierced through their bodies.
"Pfft!"
"Clang!"
Both Root members coughed up blood.
Enkidu pierced through their abdomens.
They infused Chakra into their weapons, trying to cut the suddenly appearing chains.
But instead, the recoil numbed their arms.
They couldn't cut it at all!
"Don't know?"
"Then I'll just fight my way in!"
Uzumaki Mizuki said very calmly.
Then he waved his hand slightly, and two more ripples appeared. Two chains shot out from them, directly smashing the heads of the two Root members who were immobilized by Enkidu.
Like being headshot by a sniper rifle.
Seeing this scene, Uzumaki Mizuki's body stiffened, but he recovered quickly.
"No mercy for enemies!"
Uzumaki Mizuki said.
Finding an excuse for himself, and also reminding himself not to be soft-hearted!
If it were the other way around, they wouldn't have shown any mercy either.
After all, this was his first time killing!
Uzumaki Mizuki adapted quickly.
"Practicing magic control for so long has had great results. Killed two Root members so easily."
"Although they were only Chunin level, there was basically no consumption!"
Uzumaki Mizuki checked the points notification from the system and confirmed the opponents' strength.
There were few Jonin.
This was just the perimeter.
"Discovered me?"
Uzumaki Mizuki looked not far away, where several auras were approaching.
...
"It seems Hiruzen isn't willing to hand Uzumaki Mizuki over to me!"
"However, dealing with the Uchiha is the top priority right now. Hasn't Itachi sent back any intelligence?"
Danzo sat on the high throne he had set up for himself.
It was a very dark cave, but the place where his chair was placed was almost a meter high.
He enjoyed this feeling of looking down on everyone.
It was a pity he hadn't obtained the position of Hokage!
"No, Lord Danzo!"
Yamanaka Fu on the side answered hurriedly.
"Then it seems there's a problem with that so-called Uchiha Madara that Itachi contacted!"
"That guy, could it be he didn't want the Uchiha Clan exterminated, so he notified the Uchiha Clan in advance?"
"As expected, no one from the Uchiha can be trusted!"
Danzo looked unhappy.
The plan he had prepared for so long was paused just like that.
At the same time, it attracted the Uchiha's attention. Targeting them like this again would probably be difficult.
He could only continue to suppress the Uchiha's reputation in the village, making everyone hate them!
Anything else was hard to do right now.
At this moment, he could no longer trust Uchiha Itachi, and certainly couldn't trust that Uchiha Madara who contacted Uchiha Itachi!
"Rumble!"
Suddenly.
Strong tremors came from the top of the cave.
"What's going on!"
Danzo asked in shock and suspicion.
Did someone accidentally detonate an explosive tag?
That probability was too small!
But the probability of someone attacking was equally small.
"Someone is attacking. Identity unknown. Approaching the base!"
A Root member flickered into the cave.
He half-knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and reported to Danzo.
"Who is it? To be so bold!"
"Could it be that guy!!"
Danzo was shocked and furious.
He didn't expect anyone to dare do such a thing.
This was provoking Konoha!
Since the village was founded so long ago, apart from the Nine-Tails incident, nothing had ever happened inside Konoha.
Someone daring to attack their doorstep this time—they were courting death!
His first suspicion naturally fell on that Uchiha Madara who cooperated with Uchiha Itachi.
But he believed that person definitely wasn't him.
It must be some treacherous guy from the Uchiha Clan who secretly imitated Uchiha Madara and tricked Itachi
