Leading Naruto to Destroy the World - Chapter 16
Escape!
That was the first thought that appeared in the minds of these Root members.
The sealing technique had already been destroyed.
The current Mirai was like a tiger breaking free from its chains.
No one knew how terrifying the power of this beast would be!
But they couldn’t escape.
As members of the Root, selected through Danzo’s brutal training and selection process, fleeing in the face of battle would result in punishments worse than death!
They had to charge forward, even knowing the path ahead led to death.
This was the fate that Root members must obey!
“Spread out and attack! Don’t give him a chance!”
The Root captain shouted orders.
Given the terrifying area attack capability Mirai had displayed, if they stayed too close together, they would end up like the four previous Root members.
Nothing left but blood and flesh!
When his order was given, these elite Root members immediately dispersed and charged in different directions.
While spreading out, they still formed an encircling formation, trapping Mirai in the center.
“Not a bad idea.”
Looking at the Root members who remained calm under pressure, Mirai gave rare praise.
One had to admit.
Danzo had his own methods when it came to training subordinates.
However…
The silver tentacles surrounding his body began to flow towards his back, converging around his shoulder blades.
Until a particular moment.
Swish!
A pair of silver wings, gleaming with a metallic luster, unfolded and covered the sky.
Mirai slowly ascended, standing high in the sky like a silver-winged angel.
He wouldn’t need to condense wings from magnetic fluid if it was just pure flight.
However, this form had an advantage for specific attacks.
Looking down at the forest, Mirai gently raised his index finger, aiming at a moving Root Jonin.
A small silver snake emerged from his sleeve, coiling around his index finger and forming a small silver ball.
Pale blue lightning arcs danced around it.
Boom!!!
A blazing beam burst forth, carrying terrifying might, and shot toward the moving Root member.
This improved electromagnetic cannon attack was reminiscent of the classic move from Dragon Ball.
Special Beam Cannon!
Feeling the terrifying crisis from behind, the Root member’s spine chilled, a surge of coldness rushing from his spine to the back of his head.
Just as the thought of evading arose, the beam instantly pierced his entire body, turning the trees in its path into dust.
The entire forest shook suddenly.
A bottomless pit appeared, emitting a little smoke.
The remaining Root members’ eyelids twitched, and their scalps tingled.
What kind of terrifying attack was this?!
Just one strike and…!
Mirai’s gaze shifted slightly, stopping on a nearby Root member.
That Root member was forming hand seals, stunned by the previous attack, frozen in place.
Mirai waved his right hand, aiming at the Root member.
This time, he didn’t raise his index finger.
A large amount of silver fluid suddenly surged from his sleeve, twisting and coiling, forming a slender, ferocious blade in an extremely short time.
Slash!
The Root member forming hand seals stiffened, his eyes trembling as they moved downward.
In his abdomen, a ferocious silver blade had pierced through his body.
The middle section of the blade was slender, twisted, and ferocious, the front end expanding into a crescent-shaped axe.
It looked remarkably like Venom’s strikes from Marvel!
The pierced Root member, eyes filled with reluctance, seemed to want to say something.
The crescent axe that pierced his body suddenly split in the middle, dividing into four shredding his body.
Four slender blades rampaged through the forest, cutting down trees and turning them into shreds.
Like a meat grinder, they are shredding everything around.
Two nearby Root members couldn’t dodge in time and were cut into pieces, their bodies falling in fragments.
The remaining Root members swallowed hard, their pupils trembling, cold sweat soaking their backs.
In the air, Mirai looked like the harbinger of death, his handsome face with golden hair more terrifying than a demon in their eyes.
“Escape!”
The Root captain reluctantly ordered.
The current Mirai was beyond their ability to fight against.
They were willing to die, but someone had to escape.
To bring the information back to Lord Danzo.
Upon receiving the order, the remaining Root members finally stopped resisting and turned to flee in different directions.
At this moment, they had only one thought.
They had to bring the information back to Lord Danzo.
Their original information.
I was wrong!!
Mirai was even more potent than three years ago!
“Finally deciding to run? I haven’t had enough fun yet!”
Mirai watched this scene in the air, his azure eyes showing a hint of regret.
If you didn’t run.
Maybe you could live a bit longer.
“What a pity…”
His eyes gradually turned cold.
The setting sun was as red as blood, casting its last rays.
On his back, the silver wings near his shoulder blades unfolded with a crisp metallic sound.
A dark shadow fell over the forest, and the unfolded wings blocked the last rays of the setting sun.
Dense silver feathers shot out from the wings in a continuous metallic sound, layer after layer.
A metallic storm swept through the forest, drowning the Root members’ screams in blood and gore.
The forest was shredded, leaving no intact tree within hundreds of meters.
Only a little flesh mixed with dirt could be seen around the bare tree roots, hinting at the former life.
The slaughter ended.
The metallic storm flew back into Mirai’s wings, becoming fluid and merging into his clothes, docile as a pet.
Mirai slowly descended from the sunset, standing on the bare battlefield.
10 Root members, 5 Jonin, and five special Jonin.
All annihilated!
Only the blood-red setting sun remained, casting its light on his profile.
Spotless.
…
Hokage Office.
“The Land of Wind?”
Danzo squinted his eyes, not understanding Hiruzen Sarutobi’s meaning.
This assassination plan had been rehearsed many times and couldn’t fail.
They are barring any accidents.
Mirai was already a dead man.
The Root assassination team was bringing his body back to the base, where the prepared research ninjas would dissect his body and study his blood.
Was that special Magnet Release a mutation of some bloodline limit, or…
“Lord Danzo, bad news!”
A sudden voice interrupted his thoughts. A Root subordinate appeared in the Hokage Office, his voice trembling slightly.
This was the Hokage Office. There was only one possibility for Root to report here.
The situation was highly critical!
Danzo had a vague sense of unease.
“What happened?”
“It’s the Blue Flash, he…”
Before the Root member could finish, Danzo suddenly leaped up, breaking through the Hokage Office door and disappearing.
…
The forest.
The setting sun had fallen to its last moment, leaving only a corner of crimson in the sky.
Danzo rushed over, panting.
The eye outside his bandages was trembling slightly.
“How, how is this possible…”
The scene before him crazily impacted his mind!
Mirai smiled slightly.
“Danzo, I’ve been waiting for you.”
