After leaving the alley.
The group of people did not go to Root Base, but came to a tea room built under a willow tree by the riverside of Konoha.
“Lord Danzo has been waiting for a long time, please come in.”
Tatsuma turned to the side and made a gesture of invitation.
This tea room was made of wood, covering less than ten square meters, especially the rough entrance for entry and exit.
It was a square about 60 centimeters.
“Is this a dog hole? How can I enter such a small entrance?” Dan frowned. After all, he was too big.
Seeing this, Itachi was worried about breaking the misunderstanding, so he took the initiative to explain,
“Uncle, the guest must bend his knees to enter the tea room. This is not to make things difficult, but to reflect the equality and humility of the tea ceremony.
Any guest entering through this method means throwing their identity and rank outside the door and entering a non-secular world.
I think that Lord Danzo invited us to meet in the tea room in order to express his equality and friendliness to us.
Although Itachi had lost his teeth and his speech was a little out of the ordinary, he still tried his best to explain the etiquette of the tea ceremony.
He was born in a wealthy family and had been influenced by the father of the chief from a young age, so he had come into contact with this knowledge a long time ago.
“Itachi is right.”
Aburame Tatsuma expressed his appreciation for Itachi’s words and lightly warned Dan, “Mr. Dan, Sir Danzo has taken the initiative to bow down. If you still have an arrogant attitude, then don’t enter.”
“Uncle, let’s go in quickly.”
Itachi didn’t want Dan to be too embarrassed, so he walked over to the mouth, took off his shoes, and climbed in.
However.
Dan continued to do as he pleased.
He walked over to the mouth of the damaged piece, grabbed the connected window above the mouth of the piece, and stretched out his hand to pull it.
There was a tearing sound.
Under the stunned gaze of Aburame Tatsuma, the entire window was broken and thrown to the side.
“This time, the hole is bigger.”
After muttering to himself, his tall and sturdy body walked towards the mouth of the room and forcefully squeezed into the tea room.
Tatsuma frowned and followed him in, while the two roots stood guard at the door.
The tea room was very simple.
Although it was small, the tatami, the tea table, the tea stove, and the tea set were all there. There were flowers in the corners of the room, and there was a word hanging on the alcove. On it were the words “peace and quiet”.
The owner of the tea room, Danzo, was wearing a kimono, kneeling at one end of the tea table with his eyes closed. He straightened his body and placed his hand on his thigh.
It seemed very formal.
Itachi quietly walked to the opposite side of Danzo and similarly knelt down in a standard posture, looking serious and polite.
Dan did not like to kneel.
So he sat down next to his nephew. His weight of three hundred pound caused the entire tea room to shake.
It also made Danzo open his eyes.
Dan had been doing as he pleased ever since he entered the room, not abiding by the rules at all. He had lost all the gifts he should not have lost.
Danzo did not seem to mind, but slowly said to Dan,
“Uchiha Dan, I finally see you. You are just like the rumors say, a person who doesn’t care about trifles.”
“You flatter me, Danzo San.”
“You didn’t call us here in the middle of the night just to drink tea, did you?” Dan asked.
“Don’t worry, young man.”
Danzo said. Even though only his left arm could move, he still skillfully brewed the tea. It was obvious that he was familiar with the tea.
Soon.
A bowl of steaming, emerald green Matcha was pushed to the front by Danzo with one hand.
“Please.”
“I don’t like to drink tea.” Dan said.
“If you don’t drink, how would you know ?” Danzo said lightly, his words full of meaning.
Dan frowned, but still picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp.
“Pfft!”
As soon as the tea entered his mouth, Dan felt an abnormal pain. He couldn’t help but spit it out, spraying it on Danzo’s face.
In the next instant.
“How dare you!”
Several voices rang out at the same time. Several Root Ninjas came out of nowhere and put ninja knives and kunai on their necks.
A small tea room could actually hide so many people.
“All of you, back off.”
Danzo didn’t get angry and ordered a helper. Then he took out a handkerchief from his clothes and slowly wiped away the bitter tea on his face.
Letting Dan drink tea was a test.
Danzo believed that Dan deliberately sprayed his face, but it was a childish provocation. Only children would do this.
The young man in front of him had a simple mind and well-developed limbs, and his character was very immature.
Such a person was actually better controlled.
“I’m sorry.” Dan was sincere in ending the apology because he really couldn’t hold it in.
“It’s fine.”
Danzo forgave Dan’s offensive behavior, showing his unfathomable shrewdness and the bearing of a Hokage.
He temporarily left Dan to the side.
He made another cup of bitter tea and pushed it to Itachi.
He said, “Itachi, I said your life will be full of chaos. Drink this cup of Clear Heart Tea, and it can alleviate the anxiety and pain in your heart.”
“Thank you, Lord Danzo.”
Itachi was shocked and bowed to Danzo, then picked up the tea bowl with both hands and drank it.
Danzo had been kind to him, and without his recommendation, he would not have been able to enter the Anbu.
He also promised Danzo that he would become the eyes and ears of the latter to monitor the Uchiha clan.
“Oh…”
After a bowl of Matcha entered his stomach, Itachi suddenly opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth, feeling a strong sense of nausea.
If he only drank bitter tea, he would be able to endure it.
However, what was worse was that Itachi had just drunk a full liter of chicken breast juice. His stomach was currently in a terrible state. Now that a bowl of bitter tea had entered his stomach, he immediately “added poison to the poison”.
His stomach was in a mess, and his face quickly became more and more ugly.
A few seconds later.
“Blergh!”
Itachi finally couldn’t take it anymore and vomited a large pool of unknown liquid.
Yellow green, chicken poop, bitter taste, and the sour smell of disinfectant… All of a sudden, they mixed together and filled the small tea room.
“Why are you still vomiting?”
Seeing this, Dan frowned and patted the back of Itachi. He warned his nephew sternly, “In this case, all the proteins you have absorbed today have been lost. You have to eat ten boiled chicken egg white tonight.”
Seeing this, Danzo’s face finally sank.
Was the tea he brewed really that bad?
No, it was clearly the uncle and niece who had colluded, not giving him any face.
It was fine for Uchiha Dan, but what surprised Danzo was that Itachi should have been respectful to him, but now he was embarrassed in front of him.
Was he affected by Dan?
He took a deep breath.
Danzo tried hard to calm down, looking straight at Dan, and suddenly said,
“Dan, you should know that I was the one who recommended Itachi to enter the Anbu Group, right?”
Dan nodded, “I just found out.”
Danzo: “”… “
He suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice:
“To be honest, the 2nd Hokage set up the police force to squeeze the Uchiha clan out of Konoha’s power center.
“Therefore, Hiruzen, Koharu, and Homura strongly opposed Uchiha Itachi joining the Anbu, but I still used my reputation to guarantee that I recommended him.
Do you know why?”
“Why?” Dan pretended not to know and humbly asked for advice.
