Those who follow the Root organization, Ren soon saw the place where the Root ninja collected the Sharingan. He saw that the Sharingan eyes, which had just been dug out from the corpses, were being immersed in a solution containing the cells of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and there were dozens of them.
"Lord Danzo, this is all the Sharingan we have collected so far," the Root troop commander respectfully reported.
"Mm." Ren nodded calmly. Then he instructed the Root captain, "These Sharingan, leave them to me now for safekeeping."
The Root leader hesitated for a while. He felt that today's "Danzo-sama's" behavior was indeed a bit strange, so he couldn't help but say, "Lord Danzo, aren't you going to report this matter to Hokage-sama later? Aren't we going to bring these Sharingan to the base first?"
Ren was stunned for a moment, but as soon as his expression changed, he quickly calmed down. He stared coldly at the Root ninja standing in front of him and said in a calm tone: "Are you teaching me what to do?"
As soon as these words came out, the scene was suddenly quiet and terrifying. The Root troop commander was immediately frightened and quickly knelt down on one knee in front of Ren, with cold sweat on his face, and hurriedly said: "This subordinate does not dare, it is because the subordinate speaks too much, and I ask the adults to punish him."
Ren snorted coldly and reprimanded them: "Don't hurry up and deal with those corpses, if you delay the business, I will hold you accountable!"
"Yes, Lord Danzo!" The Root ninja answered in unison. No one dared to stop Ren anymore.
Ren also knew that he shouldn't linger. Originally, he had very limited time to disguise himself as Shimura Danzo with the Hidden Mask. If he stayed here for one more second, the danger he had to face would increase exponentially! Ren calmly walked to those Sharingan. With a slight flicker of silver light in his hand, all those Sharingan fell into his acceptance ring.
Phew~ Ren was slightly relieved. With the Sharingan in hand, tonight's event was already half the battle. However, Ren still did not dare to take it lightly, and how to get out in front of everyone at the Root was also a very severe test for him.
"I'll leave the rest to you. I'll go see Hokage first." Ren instructed the ninja at the Root, then turned and walked into the distance.
However, when he just walked to the gate of the Uchiha clan, mutation!
"Whoosh!" In the distant sky, suddenly a flare went up!
All the Root ninja in the Uchiha clan were stunned for a moment. Isn't that flare a signal that Danzo-sama carries with him and will only be released at a critical moment? Now that Danzo-sama was standing in front of them, how could that flare go up in the distance? The eyes of the Root ninja looking at Ren suddenly became strange.
Ren's heart suddenly screamed badly. At this time, a memory suddenly appeared in his mind. It was the message that came back after his Shadow Clone was dispelled. The Shadow Clone that he had left to delay Danzo was already seized by the guards around Danzo and killed! And Danzo discovered the person who assassinated him, but after realizing it was a Shadow Clone with a mask, he quickly realized that the other party's purpose was to hold him back. And his real goal was the Sharingan in the Uchiha clan! So Shimura Danzo immediately ignited the signal flare on his body to warn the ninja at the Root.
At this time, the ninja at the Root had surrounded Ren's group. Only then did the Root commander think, Just now, he felt that the strangeness of this "Danzo-sama" was indeed very suspicious!
"Lord Danzo, wait a moment."
"Why are your flares fired elsewhere? Can you explain it to us?"
"Or please take out the flare on your body and let us confirm."
The tone of the Root force commander immediately became very rude. He stared suspiciously at Ren's every move.
Ren saw that he could no longer hide. Without further ado, he needed to get away now! Ren's eyes widened. He mobilized his chakra's ability to immediately modify the Hidden Mask and convert it into a stealth function.
"Lord Danzo... he, disappeared?" All the ninja at the Root were stunned for a moment and instantly froze in place.
As expected of a person who could become the leader of the Root team, Shimura Danzo's subordinates were regarded as important figures, like a right-hand man. Whether he was smart or powerful, he was higher than the others. At this time, he was the first to react. The person in front of them just now must not be the real Danzo-sama. So he hurriedly issued an order to the crowd, "Don't take it lightly! He must have used some kind of secret technique to hide himself, so we can't see him. He must not have run far, everyone move out to catch up now, and start a search of this area!"
"Yes, Captain!" The ninja at the Root immediately put down the busy things at hand. They began to follow the direction of the forest outside the Uchiha clan. Hundreds of Root ninja with at least elite Chunin strength immediately surrounded the forest outside the Uchiha clan, forming a huge and dense net, constantly searching for traces of Ren.
"I sensed his chakra, in the southwest direction!" The three-minute hiding time was over. Ren had no choice but to reveal his body, ushering in a one-minute cooldown time for the Hidden Mask. And the sensory ninja in the Root instantly locked onto his direction based on the chakra released by Ren.
"Chase!" The ninja at the Root shouted loudly. Immediately, they rushed towards Ren. In the originally quiet woods, there was the sound of rustling leaves being scraped. Hundreds of Root ninja wearing animal masks stomped on tree trunks in the forest, jumped up, turned into black shadows one after another, and continued to leap forward in the forest. They moved towards Ren's direction with full speed, continuing to converge from all directions.
But in the process of chasing, the Root sensory ninja's face became more and more difficult to look at. "How far can I catch up with that person?" Captain Root asked his subordinates. "You said just now that he is only 500 meters away from us. Why haven't we seen a figure after chasing him for so long?"
The face of the sensory ninja became even worse, and the expression on his face was uglier than crying. Facing the captain's question, he could only bite the bullet. He hesitantly replied: "Captain, that... the distance that person is now from us... it's already... a thousand meters!"
