Naruto: The Hidden Protector

Chapter 35

“ hmm hmm hmm “ Izanami hummed a tune as she walked through the busy streets of Konoha. She was in a good mood after trolling those old geezers.  Those geezers didn’t know when to stop their antics. And besides, they sure love to talk as if they are protecting this village. 

Putting aside Hiruzen’s and Danzo’s actions against the Uchiha and Senju clans . The other two advisors have done nothing that has benefited the Hidden Leaf. The only thing they did was dry up the Konoha treachery. If one were to look carefully almost every major civilian business has the backing of these two elders. 

Even the Sarutobi Clan doesn’t have that much wealth as these two. But unfortunately these two elders have no strength to back up their wealth. Their clans are still minor clans without any powerhouses. This is why they need the support of either Danzo or Hiruzen.

But even then they most of the time support Hiruzen since he is very lenient towards them. This is also why they objected when Danzo tried to become Hokage after Hiruzen’s death. They knew that he would not hesitate to steal all their assets while saying it is for the good of the village. 

As Izanami was thinking about the four idiots she suddenly heard a very disturbing conversation. 

“ Hey, did you see that demon fox? I heard some people saying that they are gonna  vanquish  him for once and for all. They have long had enough of that brat's pranks. I mean who does he think he is ? If it was not for the third Hokage’s orders, wouldn't that beast be killed already. “ said one man as he asked his companion. 

“ Sheeze, do you want to go to jail? Even if that demon fox deserves to die a horrible death we still can't go against the Hokage's orders.  What would happen to us if we were discovered? “ said the other one as he looked everywhere in fear. 

“ Huh, do you truly believe that our esteemed Hokage would blame us if we do something against that filth? I bet the only reason he even forbids us is because he couldn’t see a child being killed, “ said the other. 

“ Well that might be true but he will still punish us if we disobey his orders “said the man trying to convince his companion. 

The companion shrugged as he said, “ well since I’m not the one who is doing the deed I wouldn’t know how their actions would be faced, I just told you because I wanted to share this good info with you. I mean if they really were able to do something against that demon fox won’t everyone be happy. “ 

The villager nodded as he said, “ yeah I too would be glad if someone decided to get rid of that Demon Fox…. “ 

Izanami who was eavesdropping on their conversation frowned. She could tell that those people who are searching for Naruto are not normal civilians. Civilians don’t have that much courage to challenge the Hokage’s authority and do any harm to Naruto. Even ninjas don’t dare to do that if they don’t want to be labelled as a rogue. So this can only be a work of one person. 

Danzo who doesn't give a shit about Hokage’s authority. And he just happened to have a small army of emotionless puppets who would do his bidding. 

After arriving at this conclusion, Izanami’s expression turned cold. It appears she didn’t make herself clear when she said ‘don’t try any funny business.’

She looked at the Anbu ninja and instantly trapped him in a Genjutsu. With her observer incapacitated, she could make a move. She deployed her observation Haki to the maximum range and tried finding Naruto.

After a few seconds, she found Naruto by the lakeside, fishing. But just before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she sensed more than five Root members dashing towards him. Another thing she noticed was the absence of an Anbu guard around Naruto.

“So that monkey is also in on this, huh? Well, it looks like I have to show them their place very soon,” Izanami thought with a bit of anger. “But for now, I gotta do something about those Root ninjas,” she thought as she used her observation Haki to lock onto them.

Then she muttered, “Die.” Like it was a divine decree, the Root ninjas all suddenly stiffened and dropped dead in an instant.

What she did was an advanced technique using her Conqueror's Haki. She essentially used her willpower to halt the Root members' brain functions. This level of control is only possible due to her high mastery over her Conqueror's Haki. If she were in the One Piece world, she would be considered the pinnacle of Haki mastery.

“ Now to give a massage to that one eyed fool  Earth release Coffin transfer “ Izanami said as she made one hand sign. 

In the next moment the dead bodies of the Root members were devoured by the earth, completely removing their traces.  And soon they all magically appeared in the office of Danzo in his Root Headquarters. 

After she is done with Danzo she thought about how to punish Hiruzen. Although he actively didn’t do anything allowing Danzo to do something like this can also be considered giving him his consent. If Izanami were to guess his thoughts it might be something like, 

“ Naruto cannot be owned by anyone other than me . If that is happening then it is better to give him a Root seal to ensure his loyalty  to Konoha. And besides I could always dissolve that seal when he is under my control. “ 

Izanami thought for a while and then suddenly had a bright idea. She grinned evilly, scaring a few curious kids who happened to see her. 

‘ oops gotta keep my dark thoughts from leaking ‘ she thought as she used her fan to cover her face. 

She then looked at the Hokage Building. With her observation haki she locked on to Hiruzen. Then she muttered, “ Yin release: Genjutsu Reverse Harem “  “ Light release: Illusion of Deception  “ . 

“ Hmp that ought to keep that monkey occupied. I wonder whether his tastes would change after a few months though, “ Izanami wondered as she lifted the Genjutsu of the Anbu ninja.
