Few people know that beneath Konoha exist two astonishingly large underground bases.
One is located beneath the Hokage Building, and the other is near the Hokage Rock, under the mountain and forest.
These two bases have many entrances, allowing movement underground and rapid appearances in various parts of Konoha.
However, these entrances are sealed and integrated with nature. Only members of Root and Anbu can find these entrances and break the seals.
Even if someone accidentally discovers these entrances, they will be seen by the surveillance installed nearby, and Anbu will come to drive them away.
In severe cases, they might even be branded with a seal or have their memories read.
The underground bases also have barriers, making it impossible to spy on them with either the Byakugan or Sensing Technique.
These two underground bases are undoubtedly the most secretive places in Konoha.
However, in Izayoi's eyes, neither the concealment and seals of the entrances nor the barriers covering the entire base were of any use.
Instantly appearing a few meters away from a cliff face, Izayoi glanced at a protruding rock above the cliff, then used Attraction to lift a pebble from the ground and Repulsion to launch it.
The pebble turned into a blur, like an armor-piercing bullet, instantly shattering the protruding rock and destroying the hidden surveillance device.
At the surveillance control center, a screen immediately went blank.
Root members noticed it immediately and hurried to report to Danzo Shimura.
"Lord Danzo, the surveillance at entrance A-3 has been destroyed. It is suspected that an intruder has entered the base."
Hearing this, Danzo Shimura, sitting on a stone chair, slowly opened his unbandaged left eye and said indifferently, "Is it Anbu?"
"Unclear, the opponent has not revealed themself, but the method doesn't seem like it," the Root member replied.
"Let Wind or Torune take care of them. If it's Anbu, then..." Danzo Shimura was about to take the opportunity to weaken Anbu's strength as before, but as if thinking of something, he suddenly changed his mind and said, "Spare their life, imprison them. They might become my subordinate in the future."
Danzo Shimura didn't take the intruder seriously at all.
During this special period, Konoha's sensory barrier covered even the village entrance.
Except for a few high-level officials, no one knew the rotation schedule of the Sensor Team.
Currently, the most dangerous person in the village was Orochimaru, who was already fighting Hiruzen Sarutobi.
With Kotoamatsukami as his trump card, Danzo Shimura didn't even take Orochimaru seriously.
No one in Konoha was his opponent right now.
Moreover, anyone who infiltrated the Root's base using such methods must be a cowardly rat, trying to sneak in and steal secrets amidst the chaos.
But the voice that suddenly echoed in his mind made Danzo Shimura's expression change drastically, and he stood up abruptly.
"Lord Danzo, the intruder has been found. It's someone from the Akatsuki."
Yamanaka Fu's voice exploded in Danzo Shimura's mind.
Danzo Shimura's face immediately turned ugly. "Someone from the Akatsuki, why would they be here? Why at this time of all times, that damned Orochimaru..."
Danzo Shimura's first suspicion was not Itachi Uchiha, who was working undercover in the Akatsuki, but Orochimaru, who had once been a member of the Akatsuki.
After all, Itachi Uchiha was even capable of wiping out his own clan for the sake of his younger brother.
As long as Sasuke Uchiha is in Konoha for one day, Itachi Uchiha is Konoha's most loyal dog, it's impossible for him to be targeting me.
However, just in case, Danzo Shimura still asked, "Is it Itachi Uchiha?"
"No, the opponent's Yin Release Chakra doesn't have the aura of Sharingan, but is a man wearing an Akatsuki uniform, with purple ripple eyes and short orange hair," Yamanaka Fu described.
Danzo Shimura's breathing suddenly became heavy, and he quickly asked, "Purple ripple eyes, are you sure?"
As if sensing the change in Danzo Shimura's emotions, Yamanaka Fu was silent for a few seconds before answering, "This subordinate is sure, the opponent has a pair of purple ripple eyes... Such powerful eye power! He has already discovered this subordinate and destroyed the surveillance."
"Mobilize all squads, everyone, and encircle that guy with me!" Danzo Shimura immediately issued the order, and he himself left the room with rapid strides, his eyes full of fanaticism.
Rinnegan!
That little brat from back then actually delivered himself to my doorstep.
Then I won't be polite!
Under the notification of Yamanaka Fu, who possessed the Ninja Art: Mind Transmission Technique, and with the base having barriers and devices, the Root members who were not out supporting and fighting the enemy, nor escorting the villagers to the shelter, instantly turned into black afterimages, flying towards Izayoi's direction.
This scene was all seen by Izayoi.
Izayoi chuckled to himself, "Very good, this way I can wipe you all out in one fell swoop."
Immediately, several figures appeared behind Izayoi, precisely Kurosuki Raiga, who had been made into a Human Puppet, and his Kurosuki Clan.
Izayoi raised his hand and made a secret hand gesture, and the Shadow Clone in the Naka River cave immediately controlled these Human Puppets, and violently rushed towards a certain direction.
Ranmaru, who was responsible for concealing the three hundred puppets, also turned his head to look in the direction of Root, his eyes radiating red light.
And Izayoi's Main Body, walked towards Danzo Shimura's direction.
The area of the underground base is very wide, with a large number of ancient buildings from the Warring States period, the light is dim, and it is very suitable for hiding.
Soon, Izayoi came to a bridge.
At this moment, four overlapping shouts suddenly came from all directions.
"Ninja Art: Four Violet Flames Formation!"
Four purple transparent barriers rose up from the top and bottom of both sides of the bridge.
At the same time, figures emerged from the heights of those ancient buildings, or used Earth Release Ninjutsu to pop half of their bodies out of the ceiling of the base, all making hand seals and issuing a series of shouts.
"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"
"Water Release: Water Formation Wall!"
"Wind Release: Vacuum Great Sphere."
"Earth Release: Underworld Swamp."
"Thunder Release: Thunderclap!"
"Compound Ninjutsu: Thunder Water Dragon Bullet..."
Various Five Elements Release, which are extremely difficult to learn and have amazing power, and even compound Ninjutsu formed by combining two types of nature transformation, poured down from above the Four Violet Flames Formation that had not yet closed.
Even the ground beneath Izayoi's feet turned into a swamp, attempting to seal his mobility.
When Root takes action, they go all out.
Faced with such tactics and coordination, even the Akatsuki's S-Rank Missing-nin would feel immense pressure, with the exception of a few individuals.
After all, ninja battles are battles of information.
Without information, the best way to confront an enemy is with overwhelming firepower.
Even the Five Kage, except for Ōnoki, would struggle to cope with this kind of firepower coverage consisting entirely of high-level Ninjutsu.
Unfortunately, Izayoi is no ordinary Kage-level.
He is a Kage-level powerhouse who, like Obito Uchiha with Kamui, has mastered rule-based power.
So Izayoi floated into the air, easily breaking free from the Underworld Swamp's restraints, spread his hands, and softly exclaimed, "*Almighty Push!*"
Chakra quickly transformed into Repulsion, then compressed to form a transparent green shield, enveloping Izayoi.
Immediately, the shield shattered, and an invisible storm of Repulsion roared out.
It resembled Wind Release, but its power far surpassed Wind Release, like an adult's hand swatting bubbles.
The various Ninjutsu raining down were instantly blasted apart, turning into energy bodies and flames of various colors, slowly dissipating.
After blasting away these Ninjutsu, the storm of Repulsion slammed heavily into the four purple transparent barriers, like a wild bull crashing into a wooden door.
The barrier instantly bulged outward and deformed, like an inflating balloon.
But quickly, this balloon deflated and returned to its original shape.
The remaining Repulsion was unable to shatter the Four Violet Flames Formation that could trap Kage-level powerhouses.
"Ninja Art: Mind Body Switch Technique!"
While Izayoi was floating in the air releasing Repulsion, a shout suddenly echoed from the dark shadows.
Invisible Yin Release Chakra penetrated the barrier and seeped into Izayoi's body.
