After Uzumaki Naruto and the others dodged the Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu, Kakashi directly used the S-rank ninjutsu that Shin had been longing for: the Lightning Blade.
Whether the Lightning Blade was an upgraded version of the Chidori or just a renamed one remained unknown.
In Shin’s impression, there was no clear indication of whether the Lightning Blade and the Chidori were the same ninjutsu, nor was it stated that they were not.
But Shin didn’t care about that.
As long as he could learn it, that was enough!
Kakashi used the Lightning Blade to slide across the ground as he charged toward Uchiha Itachi.
Despite such an incredibly powerful S-rank ninjutsu, Uchiha Itachi simply leaped high into the air and dodged it completely.
Uzumaki Naruto seized the opportunity to use the Rasengan to attack the airborne Uchiha Itachi.
Uchiha Itachi didn’t show the slightest intention to dodge and was hit directly by Uzumaki Naruto.
However, after the smoke cleared, Uchiha Itachi was completely unharmed, and Uzumaki Naruto took the chance to hide in the forest.
The one hit just now was still a Shadow Clone of Uchiha Itachi.
They didn’t even know when Uchiha Itachi had performed the hand seals.
At this moment, Kakashi also used the Hidden Mist Jutsu, attempting to use the mist to avoid Uchiha Itachi’s genjutsu.
“Can we stop this childish game of hide-and-seek, Kakashi?” Uchiha Itachi said quite calmly.
“Damn it, he’s showing off again.” Shin gave a mental thumbs-up.
When it came to showing off, the Uchiha Clan really was the best.
On Guy’s side, he unleashed the Morning Peacock.
Countless flaming fists struck Kisame in the face, knocking him to the ground.
A moment later, all the water on the ground disappeared, which meant the caster had been defeated.
“As expected of Emperor Guy.” Shin quietly gave a thumbs-up.
Returning to Tsunade, dinner was finished.
The pile of documents that had accumulated over time had all been processed by Shin.
From now on, as long as Tsunade completed her work on time, there would be no more document pile-ups.
“By the way, all the members of Root have returned.
I intend to have you manage Root.
What do you think?” Tsunade said to Shin, who was stretching.
“Eh?” This caught Shin off guard.
“Is that appropriate?
That’s Root, an important force in Konoha.
For an outsider like me, wouldn’t that be inappropriate?” Shin said.
“What’s inappropriate about it?
You are my secretary, directly under me.
It is only logical for you to manage Root on my behalf,” Tsunade smiled.
“Directly under you?” Shin caught that word, though they weren’t talking about the same meaning.
“That’s right…
Eh?” Tsunade nodded first, then paused, realizing something.
“You brat, you dare to tease me now!” Tsunade said, blushing.
“Eh?
Where is this coming from?
I certainly didn’t.” Shin immediately played dumb.
“Alright, no more backtalk.
Come with me to meet the members of Root now.” Tsunade stood up and walked out.
“Okay.” Shin nodded and immediately followed.
“Later, I will teach you some methods for refining chakra.
In any case, you should start practicing ninjutsu slowly.” On the way to Root, Tsunade said to Shin.
“If that’s the case, will I have to call you Master in the future?” Shin smiled.
“Sure.” Tsunade also smiled and said.
Subsequently, the two arrived at Root.
The entire Root had been completely buried.
All the Root members were waiting on the training ground, all of them wearing masks and black cloaks, looking like a uniform Anbu.
Seeing Tsunade arrive, they all knelt down collectively.
“Is this everyone?” Tsunade asked, standing in front of the Anbu.
“Yes.” The leading Anbu replied.
After Danzo left, this person held the highest authority in the organization of Root, and this person was none other than Aburame Torune.
“A total of one hundred and twenty people.”
‘One hundred and twenty Anbu ninjas, that’s truly impressive.’ Shin sighed in his heart upon hearing this.
Having one hundred and twenty Anbu was equivalent to one hundred and twenty Special Jonin or even Jonin, including Elite Jonin.
This was indeed a very powerful force.
“From today on, the title of the Root organization is abolished.
You are all assigned to the Anbu division, under the command of Shin.” Tsunade said, pointing to Shin beside her.
“Yes!” The vast majority of the Anbu members were obedient and immediately replied, but a small portion of the Anbu members were unconvinced.
“Lady Tsunade, forgive my bluntness…
This person…
there isn’t even any chakra fluctuation on him.
How can he command the Anbu?” Aburame Torune said to Tsunade.
“That’s right, Lady Tsunade.” Fu Yamanaka, who was nearby, chimed in.
The two did not hide their contempt for Shin at all, which immediately made Shin develop a killing intent.
These two people were already on Shin’s death list.
“Huh?
Are these the Root ninjas of Danzo?
You can’t obey orders?” Tsunade’s expression darkened immediately as she looked down at the kneeling Aburame Torune and Fu Yamanaka.
“No…
that’s not it.” Aburame Torune immediately said, “But this person isn’t even from our village…”
“In this village, is it up to you or me to decide?” Tsunade looked at Aburame Torune and said.
“Naturally, it is you,” Aburame Torune immediately replied.
“Then, whether Shin is a member of Konoha, is it up to you or me to decide?” Tsunade continued.
“It is you,” Aburame Torune said.
“Then I am ordering you to take orders from Shin now.
Do you have any questions?”
“No!” Aburame Torune immediately said.
“Well…
don’t be so fierce.” Shin said softly behind Tsunade, in a voice only she could hear.
Tsunade sighed and turned back.
“Isn’t this to vent your anger?
After we go back, practice your ninjutsu properly.
Don’t make me lose face.”
“Don’t worry, don’t worry, I will definitely work hard.” Shin nodded and said.
“Then, Shin will now issue your first order.” Tsunade then turned around and said to everyone.
“Well…
go back to your respective homes and see your families.
Starting tomorrow, we will begin to reorganize our division,” Shin said to everyone.
“Family?” The Anbu members looked at each other in confusion upon hearing this and began to whisper.
A commotion broke out below.
“Most of them don’t have families.
They were raised by Danzo from a young age to become members of Root,” Aburame Torune said to Shin.
“How can you not have family?” Shin smiled upon hearing this.
“You spend every day together.
Is it only a superior-subordinate relationship?
Do you have no feelings for each other?
Among yourselves, can’t you also be considered family?” Shin looked at the Anbu members and said.
It must be said that Shin’s words were like a wake-up call.
In the past, their minds were filled only with obedience, obedience, and more obedience.
They had never thought about personal feelings.
Now that they had a new boss, it seemed…
not bad?
“Let me reiterate.” Shin immediately put on a serious expression and shouted at everyone very sternly.
“My name is Shin.
From today on, I am your new leader.
A ninja’s obedience to orders is absolute, but ninjas are also human beings and should not abandon their emotions!
From today on, you are no longer machines that only know how to kill!”
