The adorable Jackal ran and pounced on Shimura Danzo.
As it got closer and closer,
the Jackal's body swelled, its muscles bulging, its skin tearing to reveal crimson flesh and sinews, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a gigantic existence, like a summoned beast.
After the transformation, the Jackal even developed a human face.
Roar!
Shimura Danzo's expression changed drastically, and he quickly formed hand seals, releasing a high-pressure Wind Release Ninja Art that sliced the Jackal's body into pieces like sharp blades.
Blood splattered, soaking his entire body.
"Mr. Fang Yi, attacking a Fire Shadow Consultant without cause is not the proper conduct for a guest."
Sarutobi Hiruzen, seeing the Jackal cut to pieces and Danzo unharmed, breathed a slight sigh of relief, then stared at Fang Yi with a serious expression.
No matter what,
Danzo was still a Fire Shadow Consultant. For Fang Yi, an outsider, to attack a Fire Shadow Consultant, he could not turn a blind eye.
This was a provocation to Konoha.
Fang Yi's smile remained unchanged, as if he was completely unaware of being targeted by the strongest Hokage, nor did he realize he was surrounded by the Konoha Hidden Village's Ninja Clan heads and the Ninja World's top-tier ninjas.
Even though the current situation seemed unfavorable to Danzo, it was Konoha's internal affair.
If an unexpected situation arose, everyone present would undoubtedly unite against the external threat.
"My apologies, perhaps I wasn't clear enough."
Feeling the tense atmosphere and the aura erupting from Sarutobi Hiruzen, Fang Yi's expression remained unchanged, and he smiled, "It wasn't me who attacked him, but your Konoha Ninja."
"Nonsense, it was clearly that… that you released…"
A Ninja Clan head frowned and reached out a finger, only to find that the shattered Jackal corpse was gradually transforming into a ninja's appearance.
White hair and beard, wrinkled skin.
Wearing a Root uniform.
"A Root Ninja?"
"How is that possible? It was clearly a Jackal just now. Could it be someone from the Inuzuka Clan?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's face turned grim, and he asked, "Root are all ninjas loyal to Konoha. How could they attack a Fire Shadow Consultant?"
It was another bizarre method from the Otherworld.
Even now, Fang Yi had not shown great strength, but his various inconceivable abilities made him extremely wary.
Even powerful ninjas would harbor fear and suspicion towards the unknown.
This was also why he had ordered Konoha Ninja to strictly avoid conflict with the Game Merchant.
But…
If Konoha was truly threatened, even if it was an existence comparable to the First Hokage, he would absolutely not tolerate it.
Fang Yi seemed oblivious to the pressure and threat, smiling as he pointed at the Root Ninja's corpse and said, "Mr. Hokage, you should know the situation in Wood Leaf Village better than I do."
"He was a martyr's orphan. His parents died in battle against Iwagakure and were selected by Mr. Danzo from the orphanage, then made to fight each other and trained into Root Ninja."
"Just now, he received a mission to assassinate me. After meeting me, I told him some truths that had been covered up."
Sarutobi Hiruzen asked, "What truth?"
"At that time, Mr. Danzo and Orochimaru collaborated on Wood Release cell research, which consumed a lot of test subjects. However, the war was nearing its end, making it difficult to capture enemy ninjas, so they set their sights on Konoha Ninja."
Hearing this, Danzo vaguely felt that something was amiss.
It seemed like there was such an incident.
"Nonsense!"
Danzo interrupted the rest of the content. He no longer cared about being wary of the Game Merchant; he just wanted the other party to shut up.
His figure vanished from his original spot, appearing behind Fang Yi in a blink of an eye, maintaining a leaping posture, gripping a kunai in a backhand grip…
Then,
without any warning.
Shimura Danzo simply hung in mid-air, looking somewhat comical.
"What's going on?"
"Nothing, just a temporal-spatial confinement."
The surrounding people felt a slight agitation in their hearts, and the Ninja Clan heads looked strangely at the motionless Fire Shadow Consultant.
Space-time Ninja Art…
It didn't quite seem like it, was it another Otherworld method?
To be able to easily confine Shimura Danzo, who possessed Kage-level strength, didn't that mean… if the other party wished, he could casually kill anyone present?
"Now, we can continue our conversation, Mr. Hokage."
"..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen remained silent.
His face was expressionless, but his heart was filled with dread.
Even after witnessing countless forbidden Ninja Arts, he, who was known as the Professor of Ninja Arts, couldn't help but gasp slightly to alleviate his tension and shock.
The decision not to conflict with the Game Merchant was very wise.
This seemingly benevolent Game Merchant before him not only possessed bizarre methods but was also incredibly powerful.
A power beyond comprehension!
"The Jackal's parents were injured during a mission, not severely, but they were ambushed and killed by Root Ninja, used as Wood Release test subjects."
"Upon learning the truth, the Jackal, who was already on the verge of death from over-expending his life force, exchanged all of his Ninja Arts for an item that could grant him revenge, allowing him to deliver a vengeful strike to Danzo before his death."
Fang Yi shook his head regretfully, "Unfortunately, even with only Chunin strength, he couldn't inflict even a scratch on Mr. Danzo, even after sacrificing everything."
Blood Demon Talisman.
An evil talisman from the Immortal Cultivation World, using one's entire essence blood and soul as a catalyst to transform into a Blood Demon for revenge against an enemy.
The higher the quality of the talisman, the stronger the Blood Demon's power.
The Root Ninja had no extra wealth; with only the reward points exchanged from his Ninja Arts, his strength after transforming into a Blood Demon was barely enough for a full-power Jonin strike, and without reason, he was instantly killed by Danzo's Wind Release.
Fang Yi said with a smile, "Items produced by the Reincarnation Game are absolutely authentic, Mr. Hokage, you don't need to doubt."
The space-time confinement was lifted.
Shimura Danzo only felt his vision suddenly blur, and when it cleared, the Game Merchant had already moved several meters away.
He lunged at empty air, stumbling and nearly falling to the ground.
"Body Flicker Technique?…"
Danzo's expression was grave; the opponent's mastery of Body Flicker was very high, not inferior to a Taijutsu Jonin.
If that was the case, then…
He still wanted to make another move, but he noticed everyone around him staring at him with strange looks.
What did they mean?
Sarutobi Hiruzen, seeing this, angrily shouted, "Danzo, stop it!"
Looking at his bewildered old friend, his heart was even more shocked. Had the other party even confined Danzo's thoughts?
Although he hadn't stopped Danzo from attacking just now, it was partly to test the Game Merchant through his old friend.
But now,
Sarutobi Hiruzen was truly afraid of angering the Game Merchant.
Perfect.
Fang Yi chuckled inwardly.
Once the Blood Demon Talisman captured the enemy's aura, it could automatically track within a five hundred li radius, so he didn't need to be present himself.
He had come for another purpose.
Due to the decisions of the Hokage high command, apart from the ninjas who had already become players, most Konoha residents had not taken the Reincarnation Game seriously enough.
This wouldn't do…
Konoha, with its prosperous commerce and fertile territory, possessed a rich origin. It would be too much of a waste to leave it as is.
The conflict between Sasuke and Danzo had conveniently gathered all the notable Ninja Clans in Konoha.
It also made things easier.
It was a good opportunity for Fang Yi to promote the Reincarnation Game.
The method of promotion was simple: display strength.
"It seems everyone doesn't understand the significance of the Reincarnation Game."
"Likewise, you know nothing about me."
As his words fell.
Watching Danzo getting closer, Fang Yi simply raised his hand and pointed gently.
