Tian Yuan's blistering speed made the Root guards' faces blanch as they quickly formed hand seals.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Wave." Two Root ninja uttered the jutsu, unleashing razor-sharp wind blades at Tian Yuan.
"Too slow." In an instant, Tian Yuan's speed skyrocketed.
Whoosh—two wind blades sliced through where his body had been, but his form faded—he'd created an illusion.
"Not good." The Root ninja paled and tried to retreat.
"Too late." Tian Yuan's hands brimmed with power; his Armament Haki rendered the attack as solid as an air cannon.
Boom, boom—the booms echoed as both Root members were blasted flying. Tian Yuan felt no pity for Root.
This base lay in a sparsely populated corner of Konoha, so no one outside noticed… but inside, Root operatives heard the din.
"Enemy attack!" they exclaimed.
But who would brazenly strike Konoha's own stronghold? Such reckless foes would die instantly.
Yet soon they saw the truth: a lone figure charging at them.
"Damn you—who are you?" the masked Root leader shouted at the similarly masked man.
"Just here for fun," came Tian Yuan's cold reply.
"Damnation." The Root Jonin snarled. "We'll capture you and break you with interrogation."
He formed a complex hand seal, readying a powerful ninjutsu.
Tian Yuan merely smiled and drove his right fist forward.
"Armament Haki: Emanation."
A titanic air wave exploded outward, pulverizing everything in its path.
"What taijutsu power!" the Jonin growled, retreating as there was no time for ninjutsu.
Standing in that air wave's path meant near-certain death or grievous injury.
With the Jonin gone, Tian Yuan pressed deeper—Chunin and Genin attacks couldn't breach his Haki.
They could not react as he advanced.
"This is it." Tian Yuan paused where the signal peaked—this must be the mechanism.
Then with a single strike of his fist, rock smashed away, revealing a long underground passage.
"Here we go." Tian Yuan dashed down; no ninja guarded the corridor—Root forces remained above.
In the basement chamber, he saw the player receiving the video signal; it would complete soon.
Suddenly, countless wooden branches sprouted from the earth and wrapped around him.
"Wood Release!" Tian Yuan looked at the vines and at the youth controlling them.
"Your Wood Release is too weak, boy." Tian Yuan laughed as raw power surged, tearing himself free by brute strength.
Such was the Parody One–Punch Man regimen's might.
"Reception complete." Tian Yuan sensed ninja gathering above and smiled.
"Danzo Shimura's not here yet," he murmured. "This attack stems from my physique and Armament Haki, not the Eight Gates."
He clenched his fist, compressing air with his Haki, aiming at the rock overhead.
His fist blasted forth, shaping a dragon of flame—an air cannon so hot it burned.
"Taijutsu: Blazing Inferno."
With a deafening roar, the air-and-flame blast obliterated one of Konoha's Root headquarters.
"Farewell, brat." Tian Yuan vanished at once.
Such a display would draw the Hokage and all of Konoha's might—staying longer was certain doom.
Though disguised by Transformation Technique, perceptive ninja might still discern him.
Time was his enemy; he fled swiftly.
Nearby, Danzo Shimura stood in stunned silence—when had Konoha seen such devastation, especially within its walls? It felt like constant face-slaps.
"Who is it?" Danzo's face hardened as he strode toward the ruins.
Farther below, a Root Jonin barked, "Is everyone all right? Report!"
"All accounted for—someone's badly hurt. The enemy…" a Root member reported, crouched before him.
"Understood." The Jonin nodded and asked, "How's Member Jia?"
Before the answer came, an aged voice called, "Explain everything to me."
"Lord Danzo Shimura."
