Just as Itachi Uchiha hesitated, Shinji suddenly stood up from his chair.
"Lord Danzō, excuse me, but... Itachi Uchiha probably cannot go to your Root," Shinji stood up smilingly.
"Shinji... Boss, what do you mean?" Danzō was still waiting for Itachi Uchiha’s answer, didn’t expect Shinji to suddenly interject.
"I mean, Itachi cannot join Root. Do you have any objections?" Shinji stated calmly. As his voice fell, Karin, Deidara, and Jūgo stood behind him, staring intently at Danzō. Seeing their leader provoked like this, the Root ninjas also couldn’t hold back, coming one by one behind Danzō and taking their positions. Instantly, the atmosphere in the entire training ground seemed to freeze. Everyone waited for the final outcome.
"Indeed. Lord Danzō, Itachi is my son. We temporarily have no intention of letting him join Root," Just then, Mikoto Uchiha suddenly stood up. Mikoto Uchiha was Itachi Uchiha’s mother; she clearly had some say in this matter. Seeing Mikoto Uchiha step forward, the villagers also nodded subconsciously.
They knew what kind of place Root was, and also knew the Uchiha clan and the Root led by Danzō were always at odds. Although they always held some prejudice against the Uchiha clan, prejudices accumulated over time and achieved through the efforts of ANBU and Root. But they didn’t want Itachi Uchiha to go to that dark place Root. After all, Itachi Uchiha was someone they recognized. Gentle and refined like jade, this description clearly fit Itachi Uchiha very well.
"Mother, Boss Shinji, I..." Itachi Uchiha seemed to want to say something, but was stopped by his mother’s gaze. Instantly, the entire training ground seemed enveloped by a very solemn atmosphere. Everyone remained silent, seemingly waiting for the final outbreak to occur.
"Waaah waaah!!!" However, just at this moment, Sasuke Uchiha, held by Mikoto Uchiha, seemed to sense the uncomfortable solemn atmosphere around and instantly started crying. In the quiet environment, Sasuke’s cries echoed around like lightning awakening many people.
"Itachi Uchiha, you, are you willing to join my Root, become a member of my Root."
"You know, our Root can achieve things other organizations cannot. So... you wouldn’t want anything to happen to the Uchiha clan, right?" The first sentence Danzō said loudly, while the second sentence he whispered to Itachi Uchiha, his words full of threat. Hearing Danzō’s words, Itachi Uchiha clearly hesitated somewhat. After all, he cared greatly about this matter.
