Build the Swarm Tech Tree in Konoha

Chapter 451 There is a long way to go to save the Uchiha family

There is more than one base at the root of Konoha Village, and several bases have alarm mechanisms to regularly confirm safety among each other.

The root ninjas at the branch base discovered that they had lost contact with the headquarters at around 8 p.m. According to the predetermined safety confirmation procedures, they sent out ninjas to check the situation.

But all of these root ninjas left and never returned, not even one came back to report the news.

The bottom-level ninjas who are completely tooled have basically lost their autonomy, let alone any initiative, and are completely indifferent to this obvious anomaly.

This gave Uchiha Sanae enough time to conduct a thorough search of the roots, especially the Sharingan, which represents the life of the Uchiha people, and collected every last one.

Sanae also found several living experimental subjects in a treasure house, and she released them without much hesitation.

Finally confirming that there was no living person in the entire underground, Uchiha Sanae opened the Mangekyō Sharingan again, and she used her second Mangekyō Eye Technique: Amaterasu Hina's Life.

Although it is also known as Amaterasu, it is different from Itachi's Amaterasu. This technique is much more powerful, and its specific function can be accurately described with only one name: fusion bomb.

The most powerful thing about this pupil technique is not that it is huge, but that it solves two special technologies, the delay of fusion ninjutsu, and the reduction of the power to two hundred tons.

The technical problems that troubled Warhammer so much were solved by the awakened Kaleidoscope Eye Technique. You can imagine how depressed Warhammer was at that time. Anyone else would have been so angry that he would go crazy.

After using the ninjutsu, Uchiha Sanae quickly retreated and returned to the Uchiha clan to prepare for the upcoming conflict.

At nine o'clock in the evening, there was no response to the second security contact. The root ninjas sounded the alarm in accordance with the safety procedures. A large number of root ninjas gave up their mission and returned urgently.

Shimura Danzo and his bodyguard Yamafaze also received the information, and on their way back, the delay in Amaterasu Hiko's life ended.

After a strong light that lasted for two seconds, a plasma fireball with a diameter of 60 meters broke through the ground, soared into the sky, and then turned into a large mushroom that reached the sky and the earth.

The huge explosion shook the entire Konoha village, and the entire village expertly entered a state of emergency. All Konoha ninjas quickly organized and guided the Konoha villagers into the shelter in an orderly manner.

The Third Hokage walked out of his home, and when he saw the huge white mushroom, his face was so gloomy that he could almost shed water.

Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to the bedroom and put on his combat equipment. The ANBU ninja quickly found the Hokage.

"What happened? Where did the explosion occur?"

"Hokage-sama, there was an explosion in an uninhabited space in the village, but I found a large number of corpses of Root ninjas there. Judging from the number, it should be the Root's base."

"Genbu?" The Third Hokage couldn't help but asked, "Where is Danzo Shimura? Has anything happened to him?"

"Elder Shimura and Yamajojonin just came back and are safe now."

Sandai immediately felt relieved when he heard that his old friend was not in danger. He said to the ANBU ninja: "Let's go, take me to the roots and see how the situation is."

"The most secretive and mysterious department of Konoha Village, even I, as the Hokage, don't know it's the root..." Sarutobi Hiruzen's face was hidden in the shadow of the light, and no one knew what his expression was.

But the words of the Third Hokage were as cold as water: "To be destroyed by someone just like that, haha... It's a shame that I trust him so much..."

Shimura Danzo was already furious at this time. The plasma fireball in the air had already risen to an altitude of thousands of meters, but the bottom surface shrouded in smoke and dust was still a heat wave, making it impossible to get past the scene.

Danzo Shimura has suffered many setbacks in his life. In addition to being beaten by Hiruzen Sarutobi, he was also beaten by Chiyo, Hanzo, the Third Raikage, Nagato and others, and was seriously injured to the point of death more than once.

However, except for Sarutobi Hiruzen, they were all from other villages, and they all suffered losses outside the village. When did Shimura Danzo suffer injustice in Konoha Village?

In Konoha Village, Danzo has always been the one to attack others. Even when he dug out Uchiha Shisui's eyes, no one dared to show his teeth at him. At most, he would be glared at.

It doesn't matter, those eyes will soon become Danzo's "ammunition". If someone takes a look at him, he won't lose any flesh. He really doesn't get angry.

In Konoha Village, no one had ever dared to lay a finger on him. This was the first time, but his roots were destroyed in one go.

Danzo Shimura didn't even know who did it. Judging from the effect of this technique, there was no such terrifying ninjutsu in the ninja world. From the analysis of the motive, it seemed possible for the entire Konoha Village.

Even the Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had protected him for thirty years, had the motive to kill him. After all, he was the one who attacked Sarutobi first.

Shimura Danzo was trembling all over, and he roared: "But I am doing it all for the Leaf Village——"

"You still have the nerve to say such things." The Third Hokage, dressed in combat attire, suddenly appeared next to Shimura Danzo, "Danzo, you really disappoint me."

But the Third Hokage did not continue to rebuke Danzo for his incompetence. He saw the huge mushroom in front of him when he went out. The "Doctor of Ninjutsu" had no idea what ninjutsu it was.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was thinking wildly on the road, suddenly remembered that when he was still young, those two "gods" and "shuras" were not like ninjas at all.

Therefore, when the Third Hokage arrived at the scene, he had no intention of holding Danzo accountable for his incompetence. The horror at the scene proved that it was not that Danzo was incompetent, but that the enemy was too powerful.

The Hokage ordered the ANBU around him: "Call the ninjas and use water escape to cool down and put out the fire."

"yes!"

"Stay alert, the enemy may not have left the village."

"yes!"

Danzo Shimura came to his senses and shouted: "Strengthen surveillance of the Uchiha clan, they are the biggest suspects in this matter!"

The Third Hokage glanced at him and didn't refute, but he didn't agree either. He just waved his hand and asked the ANBU to pass on the order.

After the ANBU ninja left, Sarutobi Hiruzen said quietly: "Danzo, is your brain dead?"

"Look at this terrifying scene, haven't you realized that this is the strongest enemy that Konoha Village has ever encountered?"

"If this attacker is not a ninja from the Uchiha clan, we urgently need their strength to fight against this terrible enemy."

"If this attacker is really an Uchiha, then we can't break up with the Uchiha."

"At least until I can be sure it's safe, you must put your claws away, otherwise I will remove the braid from your roots."

At about 11:30 p.m., the fire raging on the ground was finally put out, but there was still a hidden danger that could not be solved.

A large pit with a diameter of fifty or sixty meters was formed on the original site of the root, with bubbling molten glass rolling in the pit.

Several exhausted Jōnin used the Water Release Ninjutsu, creating a large amount of water and rushing in. White smoke billowed instantly, and the water filling the pit boiled crazily.

The hot water vapor forced everyone to retreat, and everyone was completely evaporated in just ten minutes. At this time, the glass at the bottom of the pit condensed into a thick layer, but it was quickly melted again by the continuous heat.

Obviously, deep underground, there is a heat source that is continuously and violently releasing heat outwards.

The Konoha ninjas looked at each other. They couldn't understand why the flames continued to heat up after several floods, when the flames should have been extinguished due to lack of oxygen.

At this time, the Third Hokage inspected the entire village and lifted the martial law after confirming that there was no danger. Then he returned with the heads of the ninja clan, including Uchiha Fugaku.

The jounin of Konoha Village were discussing around this big pit. The jounin who were good at fire escape all had expressions of surprise on their faces. They had never thought that fire escape could achieve this step.

This kind of fire escape can completely evaporate a large amount of water in a dozen minutes. It seems that the so-called water escape can defeat fire escape cannot be established.

The ninjas talked a lot: "Did it penetrate the earth and draw out the real lava?"

The veteran Jonin immediately objected: "Don't talk nonsense, the location of Konoha Village was carefully selected. The first target's attack was more powerful than this, and it could not penetrate the earth."

The young jonin couldn't believe it and asked: "If it's not lava but ninjutsu, this jutsu is too long-lasting. How can there be such a fire escape ninjutsu?"

Uchiha Fugaku looked at the nearly standard circular lava pit and simulated the size of the underground fire source in his mind. He couldn't help being horrified: "The size of the heat source below should not exceed two feet, but it can be maintained for such a long time.

It’s incredible.”

Someone asked Hinata Hizashi, who can see through things, "Senior Hinata, can you see what's going on below?"

The look of horror on Hinata Hizashi's face was even worse than that of Uchiha Fugaku. He gestured and said: "The following is indeed a ninjutsu. The ninjutsu is indeed very small, but the amount of chakra is very large."

"However, I always feel that this technique is not fire escape."

Uchiha Fugaku agreed: "It's definitely not Fire Release. The explosive power of this technique exceeds all the Fire Release I know, even the Explosive Release in Iwagakure Village, and its durability is incomparable to Fire Release."

The heat source underneath was indeed beyond imagination, and it remained hot even after two hours. On the contrary, the ninjas who used the Water Release Ninjutsu were gradually losing their chakra, and the area of ​​the lava pit was expanding.

If the area of ​​the lava pit was allowed to continue to expand, it would most likely affect the village's residential areas. The Jonin could only muster up their energy and use another round of Water Release to suppress the expansion of the lava pit.

The Third Hokage confirmed that Water Release could not solve the problem at all, so he asked everyone if there was any way to solve this problem. The ninjas looked at each other and shook their heads.

In the end, it was Nara Shikaku's suggestion that since manpower is not enough, then rely on the power of nature.

The terrain here is relatively low, and a canal can be dug to divert water from the Nanga River into the puddle. The endless river water can slowly consume the calories of Ninjutsu.

The Third Hokage immediately agreed, and Shimura Danzo did not object. After so long and repeated efforts, there was absolutely nothing left below. The base of the nest had long been completely destroyed. Now it must be flooded with water to prevent the lava pool from expanding and eventually spreading.

A fire broke out throughout the village.

The Jonin present worked together and quickly diverted the river water, which immediately turned into boiling water. As the river water continued to be replenished, the situation in the lava pool finally stabilized.

So the Hokage left some manpower to guard the place and took the others back to the Hokage Building. He would hold a meeting overnight to investigate this unprecedented and serious attack.

…

At this time, Uchiha Sanae had already returned to the Uchiha clan, sorting out the harvest while regretting her mistakes.

When she was plundering the root base, she found that she had made a huge miscalculation. There were so many good things in the root that all the storage scrolls were used up and they could not be filled.

In the end, Uchiha Sanae had no choice but to give up the second step of the plan to loot the Hokage Building. After all, without sufficient storage means, there was nothing that could be taken away after entering the Hokage Building.

An adventure destined to achieve nothing is of course meaningless.

At the same time, after the big explosion at the root, all the ANBU and root ninjas were attracted back, and the Uchiha clan instantly became extremely quiet.

So when Uchiha Sanae came back unexpectedly and saw the quiet Uchiha tribe, ten thousand divine beasts ran through her heart instantly.

The third step of Uchiha Sanae's plan had no chance of being realized at all. Genbu was frightened by Sanae's first step and retracted all his outstretched hands.

I originally thought that I could solve all the problems at once, but in the end due to lack of thinking, I ended up fighting a protracted battle. There is a long way to go to save the Uchiha family.

After counting the harvest and looking at the various items piled up in the shelter, Uchiha Sanae began to seriously consider the issue of housing.

In the short term, you can use this kind of temporary shelter to deal with it, but for long-term living, you must have a secret place to stay, otherwise no matter how strong your illusions are, they will be discovered by the Uchiha family.

The most important thing is that with so many treasures collected from the roots, they need a suitable storage place. Even the Sharingan must be well preserved before being disposed of.

Of course Uchiha Sanae has no habit of storing and collecting Sharingan eyes, but these eyes cannot be thrown away casually.

Except for Sanae's eyes in this timeline, she plans to send the other eyes to the Uchiha's ancestral graves for burial, which can be regarded as returning to their roots.

Therefore, Uchiha Sanae needs a hidden secret room, and it is within the scope of the Uchiha clan, so that she can respond as quickly as possible.

According to Zhou Wenming's nature, there was only one choice for building a secret room, which was to dig downward, and to dig deep enough.

Zhou Wenming has his own mineral bugs for drilling holes. This early bug gene is relatively simple, and even Sanae Uchiha can operate it skillfully.

She found a dense forest by the river not far from the shrine, and quickly used the spores to devour the forest, using a large amount of organic matter to breed a burrowing worm and 600 mole crickets.

Taking advantage of the darkest moment before dawn, Uchiha Sanae led the insects back outside the shrine and started digging at his shelter location.

As professional burrowing bugs, their digging speed reaches 21 meters per hour, and they can dig out enough underground space before dawn.

However, as expected, something unexpected happened. Just when the burrowing worm had just reached five meters in digging and its seven-meter-long body was still on the ground, Uchiha Izumi jumped up and ran over.

Uchiha Sanae stood up and wanted to stop her, but then he thought about it. It would take at least half an hour for the burrowing worm to hide itself, and he couldn't stop it for such a long time.

So Sanae simply sat down again and waited for Uchiha Izumi's arrival.
