Naruto: The Hidden Protector

Chapter 57

Hiruzen clenched his fists as he tried his best to calm down. What Izanami said was a sour subject he wished to forget. Despite being called as the ‘Professor ‘ he was still unable to pass down his special ninjutsu to anyone. Even his favourite student Orochimaru wasn’t able to grasp the technique. And he was the most talented one Hiruzen came across.

The room descended into silence. No one wanted to refute as that would be like stepping on a landmine.

“ Since you guys are holding your silence I take this discussion is over. Oh and in the future don't bother to çall me for something trivial like this. That is unless you guys somehow want to pay off at least half of your debts. “ Izanami said disdainfully as she got up to leave.

“ Wait where do you think you are going, we are still not done “ Danzo roared as he got up in furry.

“ Oh we are done, and it will be this way unless you decided to pay all the debt you owe us “ Izanami said sarcastically as she continued her walk.

“ You.. Get her, “ Danzo snapped as he heard her words. The look she gave him was that when someone was looking at a fool. That was the last straw he needed to give into his anger. He is Danzo Shimura. No one could live after humiliating him like this.

At Danzo’s words three Root ninjas surrounded Izanami. They all had cold, murderous looks in their eyes as they looked at Izanami.

Izanami eyed them without any fear and asked in a cold voice, “ hey Hiruzen you should control your dogs or I will take this as a declaration of war against the World Bank. This is your first and last warning “

Hiruzen didn’t say anything. He only had a cold expression that made everything clear. He approves of what Danzo is doing.

The other elders also didn’t say anything. They too approve of what Danzo is doing. How dare a mere civilian talk back to them like that.

Seeing everyone backing his decision Danzo felt even more confident. Earlier he only acted due to his anger. But with everyone one his side he decided to get even more bolder.

He would first torture this brat and make her one of his root agents. That way he could slowly take control of the World Bank. When everything in his control he could become Hokage without any competition.

“ Capture her and bring her to my base. She is a threat to Konoha, “ Danzo said with a wicked smile as he ordered his men. He needed to make her his pawn before Hiruzen gets any funny ideas.

The three Root ninjas obeyed Danzo’s orders and rushed towards Izanami immediately.

Looking at her assailants Izanami had a cold smile as she said, “ Since this is your choice let me make my move “ She then snapped her fingers and in an instant the door to the office was cut open.

Tengen with his twin swords readied came inside in a flash. With movements that are barely visible he killed the three Root ninjas in an instant.

Danzo and Hiruzen barely managed to react as they saw Tengen massacre the Root ninjas. As for the other elders their reactions were even slower.

Hiruzen and Danzo both released their killing intent as they readied for battle. They need to capture Izanami no matter the cost. If not, the consequences would be unimaginable. Thankfully they only need to wait for a minute for the Anbu to come as backup.

Izanami, who knew what these geezers are thinking, gave them a cold smile. While she could massacre every ninja they threw at her but she didn’t need to do that. Violence is not always the answer after all.

She snapped her hands again and a holographic image appeared in the sky of the Fire country. Then a video began to play depicting the exact dialogue izanami had with them in the last few minutes . Of course she edited a few things so it will be more epic.

Countless people saw a screen appear in the sky . Then they saw something they never expected. Danzo Shimura, the advisor of the third Hokage attacking the representative of the World Bank.

In the capital of the Fire country inside the palace the Daimyo of the fire country also saw this happening. His expression turned pale. He then shouted, “ Quickly send someone to Konoha immediately. Nothing should happen to the representative of the World Bank. “

The attendant quickly dashed away. He has never seen his master this scared. His usual calmness is long gone.

After the attendant left The fire, Daimyo walked back and forth. He had a restless expression as he bit his finger nails

He knew how fearsome the World Bank could be. Unlike those stupid ninjas who only know how to fight, the World Bank holds the absolute authority over the whole economy. This is why no Daimyo dared to antagonise them.

Most of their countries run on the loans the World Bank lends them. And if the money flow is stopped they would go bankrupt in a matter of days.

‘ Is that Hriuzen retarded to pick a fight with The World Bank? Who does he think he is? And that Danzo does have shit for brains. ‘ The Daimyo thought with a dark expression.

The only reason he didn’t pressure Hiruzen to select another Hokage is because he was quite suitable. But it seems old age might have got to him since he is doing something so foolish.

‘ It seems I have to go there personally to make sure everything is solved peacefully. Or else I would have make sure Konoha doesn’t involve the Fire country when it inevitably crumbles. ‘ The Daimyo thought. As the sole bank that was there for centuries who knew what kinds of forces they have.

“ Get someone to prepare the carriage. I'm going to Konoha this instant. “ The Fire Daimyo shouted as he went outside the room.

While the Daimyo was preparing to head towards Konoha, Konoha itself was chaotic. When the huge screen suddenly appeared in the sky many were alarmed. Ninjas swiftly took battle stances ready for battle.

But unexpectedly they all saw one of the Konoha elders try to kill the representative of the World Bank. Although many might have not know about Izanami they all knew what the World Bank is.

It is the Bank that helped most common people to earn a living by giving them loans. And furthermore they have a great reputation of being the best Bank that always try to help their sincere customers.

So civilians families who only managed to earn a living due to that kindness began to make a commotion. The Anbu ninjas didn’t know what to do when so many civilians began to join the commotion. Even some of them are indebted for the World Bank for the loans they give out.
