Chapter 175: Danzo and Xuanweng
After the Nine-Tails Rebellion, a lot of buildings in the village were damaged. As a result, the reconstruction work just started, and the Ninja World War broke out again.
Konoha is in danger now, so there is no energy and mind to rebuild, so most of the projects have stopped.
However, some particularly important buildings still need to be repaired or rebuilt, such as Konoha Hospital, Ninja School, Hokage Building and other places.
There is also Yan Yan from Hokage in the past.
Behind the Hokage Building, hundreds of carpenters and workers are standing on the scaffolding, busy repairing the Hokage Rock.
in.
Below the statue of the third generation.
clang clang clang.
There was a crisp knocking sound, and an ordinary-looking old man wearing a green turban and round-frame glasses was holding a hammer and a chisel to repair a crack on the statue of the third generation.
His name is Xuan Weng, an elderly carpenter. Many years ago, he came to Konoha from the Kingdom of Wind to work.
Xuan Weng\'s craftsmanship is so-so, he has no status in the construction team, and his sense of existence is thin. But he is friendly, always smiling, and his popularity is not bad.
Hum Chi Hum Chi has been busy all day, and in a blink of an eye it is already evening, and the sun is about to set.
"It\'s time for work, Xuan Weng. Would you like to have a drink together?"
Two workers were under the scaffold and shouted at Xuan Weng.
Xuan Weng heard the words, wiped the sweat from his forehead, smiled and said:
"No, I have something small tonight."
Watching the workers leave after get off work.
The smile on Xuan Weng\'s face suddenly disappeared, and a cold light flashed in a pair of cloudy eyes.
I saw him put down the hammer and chisel in his hand, took out a detonating talisman from his arms, and put it into the crack of the statue of the third generation.
Shua.
As Xuan Weng made a seal, the detonating talisman sank into the mountain wall and was hidden inside.
"In this way, it will be almost finished." Xuan Weng muttered to himself.
Sunset and moonrise, night falls.
Late at night.
A figure quietly approached Hokage Rock under the cover of night.
is Xuan Weng.
He came to the interior of Huoying Rock alone, which was hollowed out during construction, forming a huge cave.
While walking, Xuan Weng took out the detonating talisman from his sleeve, and stuck it precisely on the place he had calculated.
When all detonators are not in the wall.
"It\'s finally done."
His eyes were burning, and his excitement was hard to hide.
at this time.
"who?!"
He suddenly snarled, turned his head suddenly, and stared at the front with his eyes.
Tap tap.
Danzo came out of the darkness with a cane, stared at Xuan Weng with one eye, and greeted the latter:
"As expected of a master of mechanism who is good at blasting, he can think of blowing up Hokage Rock."
Xuan Weng\'s expression changed, and he quickly explained:
"I don\'t know what you\'re talking about. I\'m just an ordinary craftsman, and I don\'t care about the maintenance of Hokage Rock, so I came to check it."
It\'s just that this explanation seems a little pale.
Danzo heard the words, and did not expose the other party, but said slowly:
"Once upon a time in the country of mountains, there was a village called Yangyan Village.
During the Second Ninja World War more than 20 years ago, a war broke out between Konoha and Yangyan Village.
At that time, while the main force of Yangyan Village was out, Konoha launched a surprise attack on it, and a fire burned it down, causing heavy casualties in Yangyan Village. "
Having said this, Danzo paused for a moment, observing Xuanweng\'s reaction.
Xuan Weng was shocked and his eyes widened, but under Danzo\'s scrutiny, he still pretended not to know:
"What do you say has anything to do with me?"
Danzo ignored it, stared at Xuan Weng blankly, and continued:
“After that battle, Yangyan Village and Konoha signed an armistice agreement, but this was actually just a delaying measure.
They sent you, a Jonin, to sneak into Konoha and act as a carpenter.
You successfully bypassed Anbu\'s sight, and it only took two and a half months to cover the entire village with detonating symbols. Just waiting for the detonation, you can cooperate with Yangyan Village\'s troops to counterattack Konoha.
However, during this period, the village head of Yangyan Village\'s main war faction died unexpectedly, and his successor was a peace faction, and peace was re-reached with Konoha, and your mission became invalid. "
When Danzo said this, Xuan Weng\'s face was covered with cold sweat, as if all his secrets had been seen through by the other party.
at last.
Danzo explained the reason why Xuan Ong stayed in Konoha:
"You wanted to end the mission and return to your hometown.
Unexpectedly, only two weeks after the truce with Konoha, Yangyan Village was attacked by other ninja villages.
It seems that Yangyan Village was severely injured because of the battle with Konoha, so it was taken advantage of and entered, leading to the end of extinction.
This is what the old man said, right? "
Xuan Weng was silent for a while, and finally, he slowly revealed a smile.
He finally stopped pretending, and ironically said to Danzo:
"The fate of Yangyan Village is the same as that of Konoha now, isn\'t it?"
Konoha is now also because of a civil strife, and the major ninja villages saw its weakness clearly, so they ganged up to attack it.
The way of heaven is good for reincarnation.
Danzo shook his head, did not answer Xuan Weng\'s question, but continued to ask the latter:
"Your son died when Konoha attacked Yangyan Village. So, all you did was to avenge Konoha, right?"
Xuan Weng heard the words, his eyes turned sharp, and he suddenly became excited:
"That\'s right, I have been lurking in Konoha for twenty years just to avenge my son, but I have never found a chance.
Didn\'t expect, oh, didn\'t expect, Konoha tossed herself like this.
Now it seems that Konoha may not be able to pass this level, and it seems that there is no need for me to take action. "
Though saying so.
He still made a seal secretly, ready to detonate the detonating symbol arranged on the spot.
The back mountain of Konoha is made of very solid rocks, but these rocks are covered with extremely small cracks, as long as the cracks are used to apply pressure, they can be easily shattered.
Shadow Rock was carved out of this point.
Half a month ago, after Xuan Weng joined the construction team repairing Hokage Rock, he kept looking for flaws in the rock and placed detonating symbols at various locations.
at this time.
As long as he initiates the detonation, the entire mountain of Konoha Houshan will slide and collapse. At that time, the entire Konoha will be buried by sand and destroyed.
Especially now that it is the middle of the night, the villagers in Konoha are all asleep, facing a sudden landslide, very few people can escape.
However.
Just when Xuan Weng was about to strike, a figure appeared behind him silently, and he saw the glare of the knife in the darkness, and then heard Xuan Weng\'s scream.
His hands were cut off.
Immediately afterwards, Xuan Weng\'s heart was pierced from behind by a ninja knife, his pupils lost focus and gradually became dizzy.
"Master Danzo."
As a cold voice sounded, a masked ninja like a dark shadow stepped out from behind Xuan Ong and knelt down on one knee to Danzo.
He is Danzo\'s last root subordinate, code-named "Shadow".
Plop.
Xuan Weng fell to the ground, showing a miserable smile, and muttered to himself:
"It\'s good to end the long ninja career here. It\'s just a pity that I can\'t witness the end of Konoha with my own eyes. It\'s a pity..."
Then he closed his eyes and lost his breath.
