Chapter 163: The Fall of the Root Base! All knowledge comes from strength!
The continuous falling of rocks from the top of the cave completely destroyed the ceiling's structure!
Cracks spread along the fractured rock walls!
Who knows how long this state lasted!
In any case!
Amidst gasps of alarm!
The Root base began to collapse on a large scale!
Deafening roars constantly stimulated everyone's nerves!
In places where everyone's gaze intentionally perceived!
Blinding lights shone into the dark cave through the cracks formed by the collapsing rock layers!
"Damn it! The base is collapsing... Get out of here!"
Facing this terrifying momentum!
Many Root members had already fled towards the passages!
Hoping to secure a way out before the base completely caved in!
As for Owl and several Jonin from Root!
They were still fighting Fujiwara Tetsuya!
"You guys! Take your injured comrades and evacuate quickly!"
"I'll hold back this brat!"
If looks could kill!
From Owl's perspective!
Fujiwara Tetsuya would have been tortured and killed thousands of times!
Unfortunately! He couldn't do it!
"Owl! There's no point in continuing this fight now!"
"How about we call a temporary truce!"
"You take the Root members and evacuate safely!"
"And I! Will go look for Kyoji!"
"If you still have any grievances! Let's discuss them after we've escaped here!"
To ensure the secrecy of the Root base!
The Root base was constructed dozens of meters below the surface rock layer!
If the rock layer above the Root base completely collapsed!
With his excellent personal strength! He would most likely survive!
But Uzumaki Kyoji! Would definitely die here!
"Hmph!"
"Uzumaki Kyoji is in the second secret room to the south!"
"Fujiwara Family brat! I'll wait for you above!"
Although Owl was annoyed by Fujiwara Tetsuya to his core!
After seeing the heavily injured Root members!
He still made a rational decision!
Seeing Owl turn and leave!
Fujiwara Tetsuya silently put away kirimaru, and after confirming the direction!
He quickly headed towards the secret room where Uzumaki Kyoji was!
"Kyoji! Are you in there!"
Due to its sealed nature!
The secret room where Uzumaki Kyoji was located!
Had not been flooded by the surging water in the cave, drowning him inside!
When Fujiwara Tetsuya opened the stone door!
He met Uzumaki Kyoji's blank gaze!
Perhaps! In Uzumaki Kyoji's heart! He didn't even believe it himself!
That Fujiwara Tetsuya could come here! And rescue him!
"Hey! Kyoji, you dummy! You weren't scared silly by those Root idiots, were you!"
It wasn't until Fujiwara Tetsuya tapped Uzumaki Kyoji on the back of his head twice!
That Uzumaki Kyoji let out a whimper! And reacted!
"Brother Tetsuya..."
"Phew! Kyoji! You fellow! In any case... It's good that you're okay!"
"Let's go! We need to leave here quickly!"
"Otherwise! In a little while, we'll be buried here!"
Patting Uzumaki Kyoji's shoulder!
Just as Fujiwara Tetsuya turned to leave!
After a long period of instability!
The upper rock layer of the Root base! Completely collapsed!
Huge rocks weighing several tons! Even dozens of tons! Continuously fell downwards!
In just a few tens of seconds!
The Root base! Was completely buried!
..."Danzo! If I'm not mistaken!"
"That direction! Is the Root base, right!"
The large-scale collapse!
Naturally caused a significant commotion!
Not to mention the scattering birds and beasts! Just the deafening roar!
Traveled far, several, even more than ten miles away!
Gazing at the rising smoke in the distance!
Danzo's eyes completely darkened!
Counting from when he left Root! Only an hour had just passed!
But now!
Without anyone's reminder!
After a slight pause! Danzo flashed and quickly rushed forward!
Root! Was the Root of Konoha! And also the foundation of his power over Konoha!
"Lord Owl! That brat! He didn't die down there, did he!"
Ten minutes had passed since the large-scale collapse!
Those unfortunate souls injured by the rocks!
Had already been rescued by Root members early on!
However!
Right now! Neither Owl! Nor the other Root members! Had any intention of leaving!
They just looked with lingering fear at the bottomless huge pit below their feet!
"That brat..."
Such a large-scale collapse! In Owl's opinion, even if he were down there!
His chances of survival would be fifty-fifty!
However! After thinking about Fujiwara Tetsuya's extraordinary combat talent!
Owl hesitated!
Or rather! In his subconscious!
He believed Fujiwara Tetsuya could survive!
Just as Owl was about to add something!
At the bottom of the pit!
Suddenly, countless tiny streams of water emerged, gradually condensing into a giant Water Dragon!
With a roar like a dragon and a tiger! It directly charged upwards!
"It's that brat from the Fujiwara Family! And Uzumaki Kyoji!"
Amidst the low murmur of a Root member!
Everyone's gaze gradually focused on the two figures at the Water Dragon's head!
"Fujiwara Tetsuya! That brat's life... is really tough!"
The instant Owl's voice fell!
Owl had already disappeared from his spot! Appearing at the dragon's head!
A chilling blade light! Directly enveloped Fujiwara Tetsuya and Uzumaki Kyoji!
In his opinion!
Even if the Root base had been destroyed!
He still had to capture Fujiwara Tetsuya! To give Danzo an explanation!
"Hey! Can't you wait!"
"At least! You should wait until we've landed before ambushing us!"
With a light laugh! Fujiwara Tetsuya's kirimaru once again blocked in front of him!
Using the terrifying force transmitted from the blade!
Fujiwara Tetsuya, holding Uzumaki Kyoji with his left hand, spun several times in mid-air!
Successfully landed on a broken giant tree!
"Kyoji! You wait for me here!"
"I'm going to exchange a few more moves with that guy!"
The moment they landed!
The surrounding Root members had already surrounded them!
In such a wide space! Breaking through the encirclement with Uzumaki Kyoji!
Was obviously an incredibly difficult task!
However! Calculating the time!
His "reinforcements," should be arriving soon!
"Konoha-Style Swordsmanship: God Slash!"
"Konoha-Style Swordsmanship: Danku!"
"Lightning Release: Chidori Current!"
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
Terrifying fluctuations! Continuously spread outwards!
Fujiwara Tetsuya, unleashing his full power!
Not only drew Owl into the fray! But also didn't spare the several Root Jonin watching nearby!
Dazzling lightning flashed continuously within everyone's field of vision!
"Brother Tetsuya... Is he really that strong!"
Regarding Fujiwara Tetsuya's strength!
Uzumaki Kyoji had some understanding!
However! That understanding was entirely based on the accounts of Uzumaki Meika, Uchiha Mikoto, and others!
Compared to what Uzumaki Kyoji saw now!
It was a completely different level of concept!
At this moment! Uzumaki Kyoji suddenly understood!
Why! Uzumaki Meika trusted Fujiwara Tetsuya so much!
It wasn't just built upon past bonds!
It was also built upon Fujiwara Tetsuya's powerful strength!
