  "Danzō-sama, if you have something to say, spit it out. I don't have time to waste."

  Shin said with a nont air.

  Danzō gred at Shin, his arroganfuriating. Despite addressing him with the proper honorifics, Shin's ck of respect was clear.

  Danzō was delusional. Expeg respect from Shin was like expeg Hiruzen to step down and hand him the Hokage hat.

  "Uzumaki Shin, your strength is impressive. Would you be ied in joining Root?"

  Danzō suppressed his anger aehe invitation.

  If Shin joined Root, he would fet about the deaths of his subordinates. Shin was clearly more valuable.

  "Root? What's Root? I've never heard of it. Is it some insignifit anization?"

  Shin feigned ignorance.

  Danzō couldn't hold baymore. His Kage-level chakra exploded outwards, his eyes narrowed dangerously.

  "Why so worked up, Danzō-sama? Is this 'Root' thing your creation? If so, I must criticize your marketing strategy. I've never even heard of it."

  Shin said with a straight face, though he was struggling to tain his ughter. If he ughed, Danzō would explode.

  He knew Danzō wasn't known for his patience.

  "If that's all you wanted, Danzō-sama, then goodbye. I have no i in some unknown anization."

  Shin didn't give Danzō a ce to respond and used the Body Flicker Jutsu to disappear.

  Danzō's face was a mask of fury.

  "Uzumaki Shin, I'll remember this!" he snarled.

  Shin, of course, didn't hear him. And even if he did, he wouldn't care. He wasn't afraid of fighting Danzō.

  He was strong enough to escape even a full-on assault from a Hidden Vilge. With that kind of power, he didn't have to be cautious or py nice.

  If he wao keep a low profile, he wouldn't have attacked the Suna forces. That dispy had revealed a portion of his true strength.

  He had another reason for attag, though: a System mission he had received a few months ago.

  The mission was to help Konoha win the Sed Shinobi World War. The reward was a [Divine Replication Card]. There was y for failure.

  He didn't want to fail, though. A [Divine Replication Card] was too precious.

  It was a choice-based mission. He could choose to help any of the six vilges involved in the war: Konoha, Suna, Iwa, Kumo, Kiri, or Amegakure. The reward was the same regardless of which vilge he chose. He had chosen Konoha.

  Konoha was likely to win anyway, and he was a Konoha Shinobi.

  Helping Konoha win the war wasn't a difficult task. He might not even have to do anything.

  But that was assuming there were no ued events. The timeline had already diverged; anything ossible.

  Regardless, Shin was determio get that [Divine Replication Card]. With it, he could copy the Rinnegan.

  Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan was currently with Nagat to steal it was out of the question.

  If Shin tried to take the Rinnegan, Madara would definitely intervene.

  Shin had never sidered stealing the Rinnegan anyway. He preferred his own eyes. He wouldn't transpnt someone else's.

  He could evolve his owhere was no need for a transpnt. And transpnted eyes were never fully patible with the new host.

  Nagato couldn't evehe Rinnegan's full power. Even if Shin could use it better than Nagato, he probably wouldn't be able to match Madara.

  But the eyes copied with the System's Replication Cards were different. They would be perfectly patible with him.

  "You're back."

  Tsunade approached Shin curiously. "What did Danzō want?"

  Kushina and Mikoto also gathered around, eager to hear what that shady character to.

  They also wao warn Shin.

  "Nothing much. He wanted me to join Root," Shin said.

  Tsunade hat wasn't surprising. Danzō would defiry to recruit Shin.

  "Was that all?" Kushina asked.

  "He probably had other motives. Maybe he's ied in my Ice Release. But I didn't give him a ce to eborate."

  Shin had goo see Danzō to annoy him, to see his angry expression.

  He had succeeded. Danzō's face had been livid.

  "No wonder you came back so quickly. He must have been furious," Tsunade chuckled.

  "But knowing that old geezer, he'll defiry to get back at you."

  Tsunade's smile vanished. Danzō was vindictive. Shin had angered him; there would be repercussions.

  "It doesn't matter."

  Shin wasn't afraid of Danzō's revenge. If Danzō pushed him too far, he wouldn't hesitate to kill him.

  He g Kushina and Mikoto. He wasn't worried about Danzō's revenge on himself, but he was worried about them.

  He thought of a solution: the Transcription Seal. He could seal his Mangekyō Sharingan abilities into their eyes, set to activate under certain ditions.

  Itachi had imphe Amaterasu Transcription Seal in Sasuke's eye, set to activate if he saw Obito's Sharingan.

  Shin knew how to use the Transcription Seal, but he hadn't tested it yet. He didn't want to risk using it on Kushina and Mikoto without being sure it was safe.

  But that was easily solved. He just needed a test subject.

  And finding one was easy. They were in the middle of a war with Suna. He could just capture a Suna Shinobi.

  Shin decided to do just that. He wondered whilucky Suna Shinobi would be his test subject.

  "How's Konan's training ing along?" Shin asked, patting Konan's head.

  "Still Refining Chakra," Konan replied, nuzzling his hand. She seemed to enjoy his head pats.
