In a secluded forest on the outskirts of Konoha, where the trees are dense and the environment is dark, a mysterious masked man has suddenly appeared.
"As expected of the dark roots, even the base they found was so dark and desolate."
Hinata Kaze surveyed the dense, desolate landscape before him, and scoffed at it.
"And this barrier, its concealment effect is pretty good, let me enhance it for you!"
After speaking, Hyuga Kaze took out a barrier scroll, formed hand seals, and cast a complex spell barrier. Soon, countless spell runes spread rapidly from the center of the scroll, and an invisible barrier was formed.
This barrier did not damage the root barrier at all; instead, it added an extra layer on the outside that concealed movement and chakra fluctuations.
Having done all this, Hyuga Kaze stopped and slammed his palm on the ground, instantly creating a deep underground passage.
Skilled and daring, Hyuga Kaze fearlessly entered the passage. He had only taken a few steps when several kunai were shot at him. Then, several Root ninjas dressed in black rushed out and drew their swords without saying a word.
Tsk, attacking without even asking a question. Maybe the roots have their own way of identifying things or some kind of code.
Now that he had been discovered, Hinata Kaze no longer tried to hide. He gripped his sword and moved it, and a gust of wind blew rapidly along his fingers, blowing the kunai back.
"Uchiha Style: Gale Sword"
With Hyuga Kaze's shout, the violent airflow pressed down on the Root ninjas, making it impossible for them to advance or even dodge. They could only watch helplessly as the kunai continued to pierce their bodies at an accelerated pace, before collapsing with a muffled groan.
"Hahahaha, you little Root brats, your old man Uchiha Tajima is back again! Tonight, I'll make you atone for the souls of the Uchiha clan!"
A wild laugh echoed throughout the entire root base. The silent underground base seemed to be suddenly electrified, and the sound of charging could be heard.
Before the Root ninjas could rush out, Hyuga Kaze continued to stride forward with his head held high. Today, this Root base is doomed, just as Madara Uchiha's father said!
Startled by Hyuga Kaze's laughter, squads of Root ninjas surged out from the Root base and launched a desperate charge against him.
None of these Root ninjas were strong enough to warrant Hyuga Kaze's serious attention, but in this unique terrain with a single passage, their desperate attacks did cause Hyuga Kaze a little trouble.
Moreover, the defensive facilities at this root base are indeed quite good, so Hyuga Kaze's advance speed cannot be described as very fast.
Just as Hyuga Kaze had finished off a few Root ninjas blocking his way and was continuing forward, thick stone walls suddenly collapsed at the front and back of the passage, trapping Hyuga Kaze in a ten-meter-long secret chamber.
Then dozens of small holes suddenly appeared in the passage wall, and in the next moment countless hidden weapons shot out from the holes.
These hidden weapons crisscrossed and refracted, covering the ten-meter-long space, leaving Hyuga Kaze no room to dodge.
"Uchiha Style: Thousand Winds Pass"
Hinata Kaze pointed his sword at the sky, and a violent swirling air current mixed with countless crescent-shaped wind blades circled around him, engulfing all the hidden weapons in the vortex, before suddenly slamming back against the stone wall.
Hidden weapons and wind blades struck the stone wall, producing deafening sounds. The entire passage seemed to shake, and cracks appeared in the stone wall, through which the Root ninjas arrayed outside could be faintly seen.
Before Hyuga Kaze could make any move, a thick green gas suddenly shot out from a small hole in the wall; it was clearly deadly poison.
Hinata Kaze didn't want to get involved with this kind of thing either. Just then, a few hidden weapons carrying marks pierced through the stone wall, so Hinata Kaze activated his Flying Thunder God Technique.
With a flash, Hyuga Kaze appeared in front of the group of Root ninjas.
Wind Release: Wave-Splitting Palm
Fire Release: Flame Stream
The Root ninjas reacted quickly, immediately unleashing a combined wind and fire ninjutsu.
"Uchiha Style: Gale Sword"
A fierce wind swept through, using wind to counter wind, reversing the flow of fire and wind, and felling a patch of rooted ninja.
Hinata Kaze advanced relentlessly, deliberately using the so-called Gale Sword technique extensively. Compared to this move, his other methods were far more lethal.
Many of the Root ninjas encountered tonight, as perceived by the Mind Mirror Divine Power, still possessed relatively rich emotions. Perhaps they were only recently forced to join Root. Hyuga Kaze deliberately went easy on them, just enough to injure them and leave them on the ground.
Nowadays, ordinary soldiers are no different from ants in Hyuga Kaze's eyes, but they can't be considered as Danzo's die-hard loyalists, so we can consider recruiting them in the future.
Of course, when encountering those who are filled with death aura and fight desperately without any emotional fluctuations, Hyuga Kaze can still be quite ruthless.
Thus, Hyuga Kaze multitasked, advancing while simultaneously manipulating his clones to engage in verbal battles with Danzo and his group, yet still maintaining an unstoppable momentum.
While Hiruzen Sarutobi and his group were exchanging words with Hyuga Kaze's Blood Shadow clones, they had no idea that a fierce battle was also taking place at the Root base, or rather, a one-sided crushing defeat.
Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet
"Lightning Escape. Earth Walk"
Hyuga Kaze had almost reached the innermost part of the base, where the resistance from the Root members was fierce, with each one launching a desperate attack.
"Uchiha Style: Sword Flame Leap"
Hyuga Kaze was initially somewhat restrained, but he was provoked by Danzo and Hiruzen Sarutobi's shameless words. In addition, since most of the Root ninjas were cold-hearted, Hyuga Kaze suddenly lost control of his attacks.
In an instant, the violent fiery sword energy engulfed the fire dragon, and the flames spread everywhere, completely engulfing the passage. The last group of Root ninja who resisted were crushed to death by the impact of the flames, and turned into charred remains before they could even let out a cry.
