It was unexpected to find himself targeted by Danzo Shimura.
What a bother.
Kai Mitarashi had no good impression of Danzo, who was willing to use any means to achieve his goals. Although the original series seemed to redeem Danzo in the end, in Kai's eyes, it was merely Danzo's wishful thinking before his death.
For his ambition, Danzo could stand by during the Nine-Tails' invasion, abandon the defense of Konoha during Pain's attack, and even secretly plan to assassinate the Third Hokage.
"Who are you?" Although he recognized Danzo, Kai did not immediately reveal it.
Danzo's sinister gaze fixed on Kai, speaking in a deep tone, "I'm Danzo Shimura, leader of the Foundation. Join the Foundation, Kai Mitarashi. How about it?"
"The Foundation? The special operations unit of the Anbu? My uncle's 'subordinates'?" Kai looked at Danzo, speaking disdainfully, especially emphasizing the word 'Foundation'.
"Damn brat, Lord Danzo is not anyone's subordinate."
Before Danzo could speak, one of the Foundation ninjas behind him stepped forward and reprimanded Kai, evidently brainwashed by Danzo.
"Stand down." Danzo raised his hand to dismiss his subordinate.
He slowly spoke to Kai, "You actually know the full name of the Foundation, it seems you have some understanding of us. Although the Foundation is part of the Anbu, it is not under Anbu's jurisdiction; it is directly under my command. So, have you decided to join?"
Kai sneered, "Sorry, I'm not interested at all. Besides, the name Danzo sounds like an old dog's name."
Danzo had never been insulted like this before, his eyes showed a hint of anger, his voice icy cold:
"I, Danzo Shimura, as the advisor to the Hokage, order you, Kai Mitarashi, to join the Foundation."
"Your order? As a Jonin of Konoha, I only follow the Hokage's commands."
Kai's eyes flashed with intensity, his voice rising sharply, "Who do you think you are?"
"You!" Danzo glared at Kai viciously, "I'll give you one more chance. Will you join the Foundation? Don't force me to act!"
"Are you angry out of shame?" Kai replied disdainfully.
"Attack!" Danzo waved his hand, and three subordinates immediately charged forward.
So, it's finally time to fight?Kai watched the three rushing towards him without any panic.
Strong Fist: Air Shattering!
A high-density chakra shockwave directly struck the Foundation ninja at the forefront. As a Jonin, Kai's Strong Fist: Air Shattering was incomparable to two years ago.
The leading Foundation ninja had no time to react, already hit in the chest, sent flying.
Seeing their comrade struck down, the remaining Foundation ninjas did not pause their attack, as if the fallen was just a trivial being.
Truly worthy of being Foundation ninjas, devoid of humanity, mere tools, Kai thought.
Looking at Danzo standing idly by, a surge of killing intent rose within Kai.
Earth Release: Yellow Spring Swamp!
Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere!
The two Foundation ninjas coordinated to release their jutsu.
The solid ground beneath Kai's feet instantly turned into a swamp, several wind spheres tearing through the air towards him!
Truly worthy of being trained by Danzo, they found the most opportune moment, even at the cost of a comrade's life.
Their coordination was seamless, Earth Release to trap, Wind Release to attack, without any verbal communication, they made the right choice instantly.
But did any of this matter to Kai?
Substitution Jutsu!
Kai appeared directly in front of one of the Foundation ninjas.
Strong Fist: Layered Strength!
Another punch sent the Foundation ninja flying. At this moment, the remaining ninja charged at Kai with a kunai.
Kai turned and grabbed the ninja's wrist, his immense strength preventing escape, while his other hand held a glowing blue orb.
Rasengan!
The Rasengan in Kai's hand slammed into the ninja's abdomen. The ninja didn't even have time to scream before being carried away by the Rasengan, crashing through several giant trees!
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Seeing his subordinates defeated in just a few moves by Kai, Danzo did not get angry but instead applauded.
"Indeed, worthy of someone I have my eyes on. The elite ninjas of the Foundation couldn't last a few rounds against you. I'm becoming more satisfied with you, looks like I'll have to personally intervene."
Kai could clearly see the greed in Danzo's eyes. He had no certainty of victory against Danzo, an experienced Kage-level fighter with unknown tricks up his sleeve.
"But, since you dare to target me, I must teach you a lesson."
Kai slowly drew a kunai from his pouch and hurled it at Danzo.
With a slight tilt of his head, Danzo dodged Kai's kunai, "Brat, is this all you have?"
However, before Danzo could finish his sentence, his expression suddenly froze, as Kai was no longer in front of him.
"Can you dodge this trick?"
Kai's voice came from behind Danzo, a Rasengan in his hand smashing towards Danzo's back.
"This is... Flying Thunder God Technique!"
Danzo's eyes were filled with horror. As a disciple, how could he not be familiar with the space-time jutsu developed by the Second Hokage? But he didn't expect Kai to be able to use it.
At this moment, there was no time for Danzo to think, as the Rasengan in Kai's hand was already smashing into his back.
Even a Kage-level fighter couldn't withstand the sudden impact of an A-rank jutsu like Rasengan. Danzo's half-body became a bloody mess.
Turning around, Kai was nowhere to be seen!
"Kai Mitarashi!" Danzo shouted hoarsely at the empty space before him.
