Chapter 32:

"Looking at your yearning expression, you must have been wanting the clan's high rank ninjutsu for a long time, right?" Fukai smiled and proudly said: "Not surprising because Uchiha clan fire ninjutsu and genjutsu prowess are famous in the ninja world."

Akira nodded, Uchiha clan certainly deserves to be proud, because this is a fact.

"You can go and learn these ninjutsu, if you have any doubts, you can ask the third elder to answer your doubts." Fukai said.

In addition to the head of the Uchiha clan, there are also three powerful and influential elders and the third elder is one of them.

"Ok." Akira nodded.

Ever since the reign by second hokage, Uchiha clan has been suspected and isolated by Konoha's higher echelon. This is no secret, as it is precisely because of this that uchiha clan is more united and pays more attention to nurturing talents. As a result Akira is given such preferential treatment.

Regardless of the reason, Fukai treat Akira very well, so Akira is grateful.

"You can go, if you have anything, you can tell me freely." Fukai said.

Akira nodded and left directly.

After leaving the room, Akira breathed a sigh of relief and felt better.

"You have earned a lot this time. Uchiha clan library has a lot of powerful ninjutsu stored…" The voice of sage of the six path sounded in Akira's mind and said with a smile.

"Old man, are you boasting? Uchiha's ninjutsu all originated from Indra and Indra is your son." Akira said.

The sage of the six path was so angry that he blow his beard and glared at Akira while angrily shout: "Do I need to boast? Do I look so shallow?"

Akira nodded seriously: "Yes."

"Brat! How could I have taken you as my student. Thinking back to my glorious day, I would have never taken such a student like you…" The sage of the six path sighed and looked distressed.

"…"

Akira and six of the six path like to banter with one another and it has becomes a way for them to communicate their feelings. This is perhaps the most weird pair of sensei and student in the ninja world.

After a night rest, Akira went to the back mountain to practice as usual.

Currently, Akira is practicing his shurikenjutsu.

Akira prepared the target by placing them in different positions and then he began to throw the shuriken towards the targets.

Akira jumped up with his sharingan activated. His hand held ten shuriken in between his fingers, shot out the shurikens which separated into different directions and all of them hit the bullseye. There was also a target placed in his blind spot. Akira throw forward his arm and sent out two shurikens one after another. The two shurikens at mid flight ricochet at each other, changing the direction, so that one of the shuriken hit the bullseye of the target placed in his blind spot.

Perfect!

Akira lightly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good job, your shurikenjutsu is getting better and better." Sage of the six path praised.

Akira smiled and was about to answer, but was interrupted by the sage of the six path sudden warning: "Huh, there is a strong chakra approaching here…"

Akira's heart shuddered as he saw the leaves of the trees in front of him move slightly and a figure appeared there in a blink of an eye.

This person was about forty years old, with a solemn and dignified expression. He looked at Akira with a little surprised: "Uchiha Akira, you deserve to be a genius of the Uchiha clan, Orochimaru is right, you have great potential. "

Danzo!

Akira narrowed his eyes slightly, the person in front of him is Danzo!

Danzo just saw the scene where Akira was practicing his shurikenjutsu and felt very amazed. Uchiha Akira is really extraordinary and a smile appeared on Danzo's face: "I will Introduce myself, I am the Danzo, the leader of 'root' which is a branch organization of Konoha anbu."

Of course I know you are Danzo! Akira secretly said in his heart, then nodded and replied calmly: "I once heard the Patriarch mentioning 'root', a branch organization of Anbu. How may I help you Danzo sama?"

Danzo was a little surprised, seeing Akira not astonished by the revelation. It seems that Uchiha clan really attach great importance to Uchiha Akira. Did they told him about the roots existence?

Danzo was secretly surprised, but he didn't know that Akira was actually lying.

"Uchiha Akira, you are very talented. I have intentions to nuture you. I don't know if you are interested in joining root?" Danzo pondered slightly and said, "If you join root, I will train you to my best ability and make you the strongest ninja. I am actually very close with your uchiha clan as I have a close friend named Uchiha Kagami, who is also a uchiha. "

Out of Akira's expectation, the purpose of Danzo coming here was actually to offer him to join 'root'!

Akira was surprised by Danzo's invitation, but he sneered in his heart.

Join root organization? Don't be kidding me, once I join the roots, I will be completely under Danzo's control. With Danzo's attitude towards Uchiha, I will be throwing myself into the deep pit. The most likely thing to happen is like the original story where shisui eyes are gouge out and stolen…

Danzo is undisputedly a conspirator and ambitious man.

Akira narrowed his eyes and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't want to join 'root'."

"Oh?" Danzo's expression stiffened: "Uchiha Akira, you have to think clearly, with me, i will be able to guide you to the greatest extent in the practice of sharingan and teach you some powerful ninjutsu… "

"Only idiots will want to join your root!" Akira muttered in his heart and suddenly the voice of the sage of the six oatht also sounded: "Brat, this person is called Danzo right, he seems to have ill-intentioned for you."

"Well, don't worry, I know." Akira replied to the sage of the six path in his mind, but his face remained calm.

Hearing Akira say this, sage of the six path stopped talking. He know that Akira is as cunning as a little fox, so he is not worried that Akira would be deceived by Danzo.

"Thank you, but I can practice Sharingan myself. Recently, the Patriarch has been guiding me in the training of sharingan as well ." Akira continued to shirk.

Danzo was startled slightly and suddenly there was nothing to say. Even if he know more about sharingan, he would definitely not be as good as a Uchiha. With no choice, Danzo said: "I hope you will think about it. I think you are a promising genius and should not be wasting your time with useless training."

"Thank you for your concern, but I have already decided." Akira said lightly.

Danzo still wanted to speak and persuade Akira to join root, but Akira directly refused.

"You don't have to go through the trouble anymore. Third Hokage has also invited me to join Anbu and I have already decided to join the Anbu directly under third hokage command." Akira responded directly.

Akira knows that in fact, third hokage let Akira join Anbu is mostly to appease the Uchiha. After all, although there are conflicts between Uchiha clan and Konoha's upper echelons, but they are far from being irreconcilable. The third hokage also wanted to appease Uchiha clan and resolve conflicts. However Akira doesn't care about hokage intention, joining Anbu is also good for him, at least it is more convenient to have another identity and he will be working closely with Konoha's upper echelons.

So in the face of Danzo's invitation, Akira directly use third Hokage invitation as a excuse!

No matter how much Danzo has ideas about him, it is impossible for him to ignore the third hokage. Once Akira accepted third hokage invitation to join Anbu, it will be Anbu directly under Hokage command and even Danzo has no right to interfere!

Danzo can't defy Hokage's orders, right?

Danzo suddenly turned pale, and said in his heart: "Sarutobi hiruzen, that guy actually took a earlier step, damn…is Hiruzen trying to win over Uchiha's clan?"

Akira looked at Danzo's deflated appearance, feeling happy. After knowing that he had joined the Anbu, Danzo must have been a little more scrupulous(careful) about him. With Danzo's cautious character, he will not move easily in the short term.
