Just as the Fujin's clone was surrounded with explosive tags, he released a large amount of lightning from his body which spread in every direction, forming a lightning field. It covered every explosive tag around him causing Lightning to pass through the tags, diffusing them within a few moments.

In a few seconds, the ground stopped transforming into explosive tags and the clone was done defusing them. However, it drained away almost all of his chakra. He sighed and muttered to himself, 'After I did such a good job creating such a good crime scene, why do you want to ruin it with explosions?

As for the tag, that was even more dangerous! It was the standard tag used to blow up the entire base! It would have dispelled me and instantly alerted everyone. I wouldn't have been able to decorate this crime scene like I want to if that happened.

Anyway, time to get to work. Hehehe, I can't wait for Danzo to come and look at this scene. Let me see if you still have the time and energy to try and create trouble for me.'

Though the clone was very low on chakra, he could still maintain himself. He walked towards the Root ninja who had survived after being hit by the Lightning beam. Though his resistance was rather admirable, his paralyzed body was covered in deep cuts and was burnt thoroughly by the combination jutsu. He didn't survive such a torture.

Fujin's clone used a senbon and charged it with Lightning to destroy his brain. He did the same to any other Root ninja who still had their brains intact so that no one could read any memories.

Needless to say, Fujin wanted to divert the blame to Kakashi. Had someone's memories been read, Danzo could openly question Kakashi. However, doing that would be equivalent to proving that Kakashi was innocent. Kakashi was an extremely experienced ninja! He had been a ninja for more than a decade when Fujin graduated. He had spent several years in the Anbu.

Would someone like him make the mistake of not destroying memories? All it would prove is that someone was framing Kakashi. So, Fujin's clone didn't bother leaving something so obvious. There were only two clues he left behind to point towards Kakashi.

The first was that almost every wound on the dead bodies, other than the ones caused by the combination jutsu, had signs of damage due to Lightning. Any decent medical ninja will be able to find that out during the autopsy. Even the large number of explosive tags were damaged due to Lightning. Danzo would easily see that.

The second clue was the hole he left in the chest of one of the Root ninjas. Kakashi's Chidori was extremely famous. This injury plus the Lightning would force Danzo to suspect Kakashi. Of course, it wasn't an ironclad proof. In fact, even this would be considered as someone setting up Kakashi. However, it was exactly as Fujin wanted. After all, he didn't have any enmity with Kakashi and just wanted to mess with Danzo.

After inspecting the base once again, Fujin's clone dispelled himself. As soon as he was dispelled, every senbon he had used to attack also disappeared!

All that was left behind were six burnt dead bodies, one of which had a hole in the chest, and three more dead bodies that weren't burnt. A few of the dead bodies were beheaded while one was buried upright in the ground, with only his head visible above the ground with a small hole in his forehead.

Due to the remote location of the base and the seals covering it, no one detected the fight that just happened there. Until another Root ninja shows up at this base, no one would know that anything had happened!

While Fujin's clone was dealing with the Root ninjas at this base, his other three clones were already done as the bases they targeted only had two Root ninjas each. In all, 15 Root ninjas had died within the span of a few minutes!

In his basement, Fujin received the memories of all his four Shadow Clones. A smile appeared on his face. He had stopped training as he needed chakra in case something happened after the details of the incident were leaked. Apart from one clone, the remaining transferred back most of the chakra. As a result, he had more than half of his chakra reserves, which was sufficient to deal with most matters.

Fujin chuckled as he analyzed, 'Perfect. 15 Root ninjas. Hehehe, this might be the most Root ninjas Danzo lost within a few minutes. Hiruzen had already taken away most of his subordinates post the Uchiha Massacre. I wonder how many are left after today.

Regardless, the village will heat up. The evidence clearly points towards Kakashi. However, I doubt whether he is even inside the village considering how many missions Hiruzen assigns him. Even if he is, there is no way Hiruzen that I know would take any action against him without any ironclad proof.

After all, for what reason would Kakashi do something so outrageous? Even Danzo would ask that question. As for its answer, there is only one that makes sense. It is that Hiruzen ordered Kakashi to do so. There is no doubt that Danzo would suspect that Hiruzen wants to finish Root for good.

Hmm No. That's probably not how it'll go. I'll be looking down on Danzo and Hiruzen to think that the action will cause them to be at each other's throats. Though I left evidence pointing towards Kakashi, any intelligent ninja would be able to see that he was set up. Danzo will see that as well. After all, all Kakashi would need to do is take away the bodies and no evidence would remain.

However, even though it is clear that Kakashi was set up, Danzo has no other leads. And, he has faced a huge loss. He'll be left with no choice but to make a move against Hiruzen. Otherwise, everyone will think that he is an easy target.

This should cause a political battle to begin between Hiruzen and Danzo. Hehe, now that would be a fun battle to watch. Once it starts, Danzo won't have much energy left to try and replace me on the council.

If he still interferes somehow, I'll just add some more oil to the fire. It's not as if he can keep all the remaining Root ninjas close to him all the time. Though I need him alive for some time, there is no reason for Root to exist. I'll continue picking them apart one by one.'

Suddenly, a weird expression appeared on Fujin's face as he realized something. He thought, 'Now that I think about it, my actions in the Land of Hot Water led to Jiraiya killing over 250 Kumo ninjas, the largest loss they faced in peacetime. I probably killed a similar number of Kiri rogue ninjas during my time in Anbu.

In Sunagakure, I killed an Elite Jounin and several dozen other ninjas. Not to mention, I completely ruined Rasa's reputation in the eyes of the civilians. If this was my old world, a revolution would have started long ago and perhaps a new country would have already formed by now. And, I also killed around 4 dozen Jounins of Iwagakure which is their worst loss during peacetime as well.

And now, I also killed 15 Root ninjas in one go, something I don't think has happened in the past. After all, Root ninjas don't fight on frontlines or move in large groups. If all my actions are made public, I'm afraid that all 5 Great Villages might want to hunt me down!'

Fujin chuckled at that thought. Unknowingly, he had caused losses to every major village and almost every minor village around the Land of Fire. He stopped thinking about it and began analyzing his Lightning jutsus, 'My Lightning combat system is developing very well. Though there weren't many Lightning users in Naruto, the ones that were focused on were all top-tier.

The range of Lightning jutsus in the library isn't very impressive. However, it was easy to replicate some of the ideas. The entire basis of my Lightning Combat system is speed and high penetrating power.

One of the uses of Lightning that impressed me the most was when Killer Bee sneak attacked Kisame with a pencil that was enhanced with Lightning. Kisame could dodge those due to his strength and speed and also the fact that Bee didn't spam them. However, even he found those troublesome.

I have merely applied the same technique to senbon, making them extremely deadly. Even someone like Renjiro will have to be extremely alert against this tactic. As for the ones weaker than him, they'll struggle heavily.

Until I can replicate Raikage's Lightning Chakra Mode, this will be my main tactic while fighting with Akuro's identity. The Lightning Chakra Mode is difficult to replicate though. I already have a decent base thanks to the Burst jutsu, Lightning Transformation jutsu and Electric Skin jutsu in the library. However, Lightning Chakra Mode is several levels above basic stuff like that. It's difficult to say whether I'd manage to replicate it without getting some help'
