Writing a Diary in the Shinobi World, and the Kunoichi Are Shocked

Chapter 81: 081 The Fall of Root, The Reason for Nawaki's Sacrifice



Kurenai felt a sense of danger in her heart, as if she would be annihilated in the next second.

But even so, she didn't stop and was prepared to tell the Military Police Force members in front of her everything about Night Star invading the Root organization's underground base.

Just as she was saying this, she suddenly felt the ground beneath her feet begin to tremble violently.

"What's going on!?"

"Is it an earthquake?"

"I don't know, take cover!"

After a moment of panic, the villagers who had fallen asleep were all awakened from their dreams and ran out of their houses.

They were worried that the sudden earthquake would collapse their houses, and they would be buried alive underneath.

"What happened?"

Kurenai looked around, her beautiful eyes filled with doubt.

After a while, someone suddenly ran over and shouted,

"All ninjas gather and head to the westernmost part of the village for rescue!"

Kurenai wanted to know what exactly had happened.

More importantly, she wanted to know if this sudden earthquake had anything to do with Night Star.

After rushing to the west side of the village with the other ninjas, Kurenai saw that her friends Yugao, Might Guy, Kakashi, Hayate Gekko, and even Lady Tsunade had already arrived at the scene.

She leaned forward and asked curiously,

"What exactly happened?"

Kakashi pointed to the distance with a complicated look in his eyes.

"See for yourself."

Kurenai followed the direction of his finger and looked over. Seeing the scene in front of her, she couldn't help but be stunned.

The ground, with a diameter of nearly half a kilometer, had already turned into a deep pit.

Gravel and bricks were scattered everywhere, making it look like a mess.

"This kind of power... is it a tailed beast?"

Kurenai recalled the night of the Nine-Tails' rampage, when a dark chakra sphere condensed in the monster's mouth.

The chakra fluctuations emanating from it made people's bodies tremble uncontrollably.

Fortunately, the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, used the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer that thing to a distance.

The consequence was that a small mountain peak that had stood for hundreds of years was directly razed to the ground under the power of that chakra sphere.

Now this scene...

Could it be that another tailed beast was wreaking havoc in the village?

Hiruzen Sarutobi, standing in front of everyone, looked at the messy pit with a complicated look in his eyes.

Danzo thought that the location of the Root organization's underground base was perfectly hidden.

Little did he know that Hiruzen Sarutobi had long known where it was. He just pretended not to know and gave Danzo some sense of security.

Looking at the current situation, there would be no more underground base.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression was very heavy, but he still remained calm and asked the Anbu members behind him,

"Are there any survivors at the scene? Have you found any suspicious persons?"

"No discoveries, Lord Hokage."

The Anbu member sighed and said helplessly,

"The scene was damaged too badly. We couldn't find any traces from it. It seems that we have to wait for the Inuzuka clan's ninjas to arrive and see if they can find anything."

"Yes, maintain stability at the scene first."

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi finished saying this, he saw Shimura Danzo, shirtless, covered in dust, and looking extremely embarrassed, suddenly crawling out of the pit.

"Danzo?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned and immediately stepped forward.

"You're still alive? What exactly happened?"

Danzo was panting heavily, and his right pupil had turned grayish-white.

He thought to himself, "Fortunately, the moment that mysterious person condensed the black sphere in his hand, I already felt something was wrong and decisively used Izanagi."

Otherwise, he would be like those subordinates now, turned to ashes.

"There was a mysterious person who destroyed this place."

Hearing Danzo's answer, Hiruzen Sarutobi's brows furrowed.

After all, the Root organization was still a force that could not be underestimated.

But just one person destroyed the Root's base?

"Is the identity of the other party clear?"

Danzo recalled the one-eyed mask and the crimson three-tomoe Sharingan, and shook his head.

"Not clear."

Danzo thought to himself, "With that attire and appearance, it must be that guy who called himself Uchiha Madara."

But why?

He had clearly reached a cooperation agreement with the other party, so why did the other party still destroy the Root organization?

Danzo didn't understand the reason, but he knew very well that he absolutely couldn't tell Hiruzen Sarutobi about this.

No matter what the Root organization did in private, it could be said that it was to protect the Hidden Leaf in the dark.

But cooperating with Uchiha Madara, this was a veritable crime of betraying the village.

On the other side, Kurenai looked at the pit and couldn't help but be lost in thought.

When she saw Elder Danzo crawling out of it, she already had a guess in her heart.

Could it be that this pit was created by Night Star?

Thinking of this, Kurenai recalled that she was actually worried about Night Star's safety just now, and couldn't help but laugh at herself.

"Everyone is here."

Kurenai heard Night Star's voice and immediately turned around.

She saw him yawning, looking like he hadn't woken up yet, with a tired look on his face.

"What happened in the middle of the night? You all woke me up."

Tsunade took two steps forward, pointed to the pit, and shrugged.

"It's like this."

From the moment she saw Danzo crawling out of the pit, Tsunade, who knew the contents of the diary, had already guessed that this was one of the Root organization's underground bases.

After the ground trembled, she had already read the updated content of the diary and knew that Night Star had launched a surprise attack on the Root organization.

Tsunade was different from Kurenai and Yugao.

She had witnessed Night Star fighting the complete Three-Tails with her own eyes.

Could the Root organization be more powerful than the complete Three-Tails?

Because of this, she didn't feel worried at all.

Since Night Star pretended not to know, Tsunade, in order not to be punished by the diary, naturally wouldn't reveal any flaws.

Seeing Night Star appearing not far away, Danzo was suddenly stunned.

It seemed that the mysterious person who called himself Uchiha Madara wasn't the only one with the three-tomoe Sharingan.

With Night Star's strength, it seemed very possible for him to use such a powerful ninjutsu like that black sphere.

This was a serious problem.

Danzo couldn't be sure whether the attacker was Uchiha Madara or Uchiha Night Star in front of him.

But there was one thing he could be sure of.

If those confidential mission materials fell into Night Star's hands, it would be no less than a devastating disaster for him, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and even all the village's higher-ups!

Looking at Danzo's expression, Night Star could tell what he was thinking.

[Danzo and Uchiha Obito, it seems that they do have a cooperation.]

[No wonder Obito helped out during the Uchiha clan's massacre.]

[This time, the harvest is not only those materials that record the dirty deeds of the higher-ups.]

[The dozen or so Sharingan collected by Danzo have also fallen into my hands.]

[For me, who has mastered the forbidden technique Izanagi, these are more than ten chances to be resurrected.]

Of course, Night Star wouldn't be foolish enough to use his own Sharingan to cast Izanagi, which had the price of permanent blindness.

Danzo didn't care. He wasn't originally from the Uchiha clan.

But Night Star knew that unless it was an extremely special case like Kakashi and Obito, only the original Sharingan could evolve into the Mangekyou Sharingan.

After recording this passage, he patted Tsunade's shoulder and said softly,

"Come with me. I have something to show you."

"Show me something..."

Tsunade's face suddenly turned inexplicably red. She looked at Kurenai and the others, and said somewhat hesitantly,

"This... isn't very good, is it?"

"What are you thinking?"

Night Star laughed dumbly and waved his hand. He leaned close to Tsunade's ear and lowered his voice,

"It's about your brother."

Hearing this, Tsunade's expression immediately became serious, and she nodded slightly.

"Yes, let's go."

Of course, the others didn't hear the content of their conversation.

Looking at Tsunade and Night Star's backs, Kurenai and Yugao looked at each other, both feeling a surge of jealousy in their hearts.

Had the relationship between Lady Tsunade and Night Star already progressed to the point where they needed to whisper to each other away from everyone else?

The two women thought that this couldn't go on.

As a great man once said,

Hesitation will lead to defeat.

It was time to take some bold action.

On the other side, Night Star took Tsunade into a deserted alley. After sensing and confirming that no one was watching, he took out a scroll from his arms and threw it into her arms.

"Take a look."

"This is the real reason for Nawaki's sacrifice."
