"Thank you." The Third Hokage bowed slightly to Naruto and Sasuke in gratitude, for his friends, for the bonds he shared!
He turned and left the office, but everyone noticed that his back had suddenly become hunched.
"Leave Danzo's matter to you, Sasuke. But as for the Root organization he leads, I hope you can show them mercy if they don't resist. After all, they are all Konoha ninjas!" Tsunade said in a deep voice.
"I wouldn't have attacked them unless they were blindly loyal to Danzo," Naruto said calmly.
Sasuke had silently awakened his Mangekyou Sharingan, and his killing intent was slowly spreading outwards; he couldn't help but want to kill.
Chapter 28 Revenge Begins
In the shadows of the base, the damp stone walls exuded a chill, and Danzo's withered fingers unconsciously rubbed against his palms.
Plans to confront Tsunade churned in his mind, but each time he deduced them, he was stopped by that name: Hiruzen Sarutobi.
The Third Hokage stood openly behind Tsunade this time, and even went so far as to abolish the position of Hokage's assistant, stripping him of most of his power as if breaking off a withered branch!
Danzo felt a tightness in his chest and a metallic taste rising in his throat.
"How dare you! Hiruzen!" His voice was forced out of his throat. He hated the Third Hokage for showing no mercy and directly stripping him of his position as Hokage's assistant!
At the same time, he also understood Hiruzen's scheme: to use him as a rough whetstone, to use his sharpness to gradually grind out Tsunade's political fangs.
"You want to use me as a whetstone?" Danzo's voice, like poisoned ice shards, echoed in the empty stone chamber. "Hiruzen, aren't you afraid I'll break Tsunade's sword?"
A sinister smile crept onto his wrinkled face.
This thought creeped into my mind like a vine.
Once Tsunade dies, he can legitimately propose to the Daimyo that he succeed as Hokage!
Even beneath the gauze covering his left eye, Shisui's Sharingan subtly shifted.
He was also aware of his reputation, and that if there were other candidates, the Daimyo probably wouldn't choose him to be the Hokage!
However, if he can use Kotoamatsukami to control the Daimyo, then the entire Hidden Leaf Village will be completely in his hands.
"Everything I've done is for Konoha!!!" He sighed softly into the air, his hypocrisy almost convincing even to himself.
The moment he turned around, Danzo's movements suddenly froze.
A chill ran down my spine, like prey being stalked by a venomous snake.
In the shadows not far away, two figures stood still as pines, their eyes so cold they could freeze rocks.
When did these two people arrive? Danzo felt a cold sweat instantly soak his collar, and his heart pounded wildly.
With his keen senses, he was completely unaware that someone had infiltrated!
What if the enemy launches a surprise attack?!
He instinctively reached for the metal device on his arm, only calming himself slightly when his fingertips touched the cold lock.
Upon recognizing the newcomer, Danzo's pupils contracted sharply: "Naruto Uzumaki! Sasuke Uchiha!"
"What are you two brats doing barging into the Roots?" He deliberately lowered his voice, trying to use his imposing manner to cover up his inner fear.
"Avenge the Uchiha clan." Sasuke's voice was colder than the chill of the stone chamber, and the crimson three-tomoe jade pendant swirled in the darkness. "For Uchiha Shisui, for Uchiha Itachi, avenge!" He practically choked out the last part.
Shisui? Itachi? Danzo's heart sank.
How could these two brats know these deeply buried secrets?
But he didn't hesitate at all, and chakra surged in his throat instantly: "Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!"
Dense wind blades rained down on the two of them, but Naruto and Sasuke didn't even blink.
The wind blades pierced through their bodies without any resistance, and blood splattered on the stone wall, blooming into eerie spider lilies.
"Hmph, you callow brat, how dare you talk about revenge?" Danzo looked at the corpse lying on the ground with its eyes wide open, a disdainful smile curving his lips.
It's a bit of a pity that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki died like this. When the Nine-Tails is resurrected next time, we must keep it under our control.
But the next second, it felt as if an invisible hand was gripping his neck, and his breathing suddenly stopped.
Slowly raising his head, he saw a giant three-tomoe Sharingan floating on the ceiling. Its scarlet pupils surged with cold resentment and killing intent, and blood-red threads spread out from the pupils, coiling around his limbs and bones like venomous snakes.
"Illusion?!" Danzo's eyes widened in disbelief.
He was under a spell?
He suddenly ripped off the gauze wrapped around his left eye, and Shisui's Sharingan spun rapidly, his pupil power surging out like a tide, forcefully tearing apart the illusion before him.
But the moment the illusion dissipated, he felt a sharp pain in his chest.
He looked down and saw Sasuke's hand being pulled from his heart, the lightning of the Lightning Blade still flickering at his fingertips, and blood dripping from between Sasuke's fingers.
"Pfft!!!" Danzo spat out a mouthful of blood, his gaze fixed on the six-pointed Mangekyou Sharingan in Sasuke's eyes.
"So that's how it is, you've already awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan!" Anger and resentment burned through his limbs like flames. "You brat, you were hiding this so well!"
As his body slowly fell, he heard Sasuke's cold voice: "With your limited vision, you are only fit to lie on the ground and look up at the prestige of the Uchiha clan."
"Who goes there?" The sounds of fighting alerted the Root ninjas on the outer perimeter.
A dozen or so dark figures instantly surrounded them, their weapons gleaming coldly.
"It's Lord Danzo!"
"They killed Lord Danzo!"
"It's Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha!"
Angered roars echoed, but Naruto stepped forward, his voice as steady as a rock: "Danzo murdered a fellow villager; the evidence is irrefutable. I have been ordered by the Hokage to purge this traitor. From this day forward, Root will once again be under the Hokage's command!"
The Root ninjas stopped moving.
They looked at each other, their hands trembling slightly as they gripped their weapons.
Many of those who participated in the hunt for Shisui survived his attacks, and if we're talking about crimes, they're all implicated.
"Don't believe their lies! Kill them to buy me some time!"
A chilling voice came from behind, sending a shiver down the spines of all the Root ninjas.
They turned around abruptly and saw Danzo standing behind them, slowly unfastening the metal device on his arm.
The "corpse" on the ground had long since vanished without a trace.
Naruto and Sasuke exchanged a glance, both seeing confusion in each other's eyes.
Even their Sage Mode couldn't detect how Danzo was resurrected.
Upon receiving the order, the Root ninjas did not hesitate any longer.
"Ninja Art: Super Beast Imitation Painting!" The dark tiger roared and pounced; "Parasitic Insects!" A dark swarm of insects blotted out the sky; "Mind Transfer Technique!" Invisible mental threads quietly wrapped around the two.
These ninjas were mostly elites from secret technique families, and their ninjutsu was bizarre and ruthless. They were no ordinary people, as they were able to hunt down Shisui when he had awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.
"It seems they're all blindly loyal to Danzo." A cold glint flashed in Naruto's eyes. "Then there's no need to hold back."
Sasuke didn't speak, but the red light of his Mangekyou Sharingan suddenly intensified.
Two figures weaved through the crowd, lightning flashing like silver snakes and whistling like sharp blades.
Although most of the Root ninjas are Jonin or even elite Jonin, their movements are as slow as slow motion when they are in Sage Mode and face Naruto and Sasuke with their Mangekyou Sharingan.
Strength, speed, reaction time... Naruto and Sasuke completely overwhelmed them in every aspect.
Within a minute, the sounds of fighting subsided into deathly silence.
The base was filled with a strong stench of blood, and corpses lay scattered on the ground.
Naruto and Sasuke stood in the center of the pool of blood, spotless, and cast their cold gazes once more upon Danzo.
At this moment, Danzo had removed the metal device from his arm, revealing the dense array of Sharingan eyes beneath.
Then he silently formed a few hand seals.
He glanced at the corpses on the ground, not even lifting his eyelids, as if his dead subordinates were nothing more than pebbles on the roadside.
However, his Sharingan, which had been in a state of tranquility, had turned completely white, clearly the price he had paid for his recent resurrection!
Chapter 29 Kunai piercing Susanoo? You're the first!
"You really are cold-blooded. All your subordinates are dead, and you don't even feel a ripple in your heart!" Naruto clicked his tongue twice in mockery, narrowing his eyes as he looked at the densely packed Sharingan on Danzo's hand.
"It seems you're not just greedy for Shisui's eyes, you're greedy for the power of the Uchiha clan!"
Sasuke was furious. How could the Uchiha clan be toyed with by someone like this!
His Mangekyou Sharingan was bloodshot, and Susanoo instantly formed a half-body form. The Kusanagi sword condensed, and then he unleashed a fierce slash.
A bewitching purple sword aura flashed by, and Danzo's body was split in two.
But in the next instant, Danzo reappeared unharmed beside Naruto, his kunai suddenly thrusting towards Naruto.
"go to hell!"
But the next moment, the kunai broke, and he stood there dumbfounded. A purple Susanoo skeleton appeared on Naruto's body, blocking his kunai.
He stared blankly into Naruto's eyes, while Naruto, who also possessed a pair of six-pointed Mangekyou Sharingan, looked at him with amusement.
"Using a kunai to stab Susanoo? You're the first person to do that!" Naruto's lips curled into a mocking smile.
As he spoke, a Sage Art Rasengan was already pressed against his chest.
The overwhelming force shattered Danzo's upper body.
[Sasuke, observe his body closely. I don't believe his resurrection is limitless.] Naruto communicated with Sasuke mentally.
Sasuke's Heart Resonance Pact establishes a spiritual link between the two, making synchronized voice transmission a given.
"Okay!" Sasuke replied.
Under their gaze, Danzo's mutilated corpse, now only his lower body, slowly dissipated like a dream, and a new Danzo appeared not far in front of them, as if it had been refreshed.
[Another Sharingan eye on his arm closed! There are eight Sharingan left.] Sasuke's Mangekyou Sharingan instantly observed Danzo closely.
He eventually discovered the clues.
In other words, the price for his resurrection is the Sharingan! And how many times he can be resurrected depends on how many Sharingan he has left! Naruto made his judgment.
"That must be it!" Sasuke agreed.
"What kind of secret technique is this from the Sharingan? It looks like it completely transfers the damage he suffers." Naruto asked curiously.
"I don't know. I was too young when the Uchiha clan was wiped out. My father didn't tell me many of the Uchiha's secret techniques. Maybe Itachi would know!" Sasuke replied.
"That'll be fun. Remember the games we played during our breaks?" Naruto's cheerful voice echoed in Sasuke's mind.
"You mean...?" Sasuke's lips curled into a smile.
"Yes, that's it!" Naruto said.
Danzo, who had been resurrected, took a deep breath, his chest bulging as he gathered a torrent of chakra, and then shouted in a fierce voice: "Wind Release: Vacuum Giant Ball!"
Instantly, a massive compressed air projectile shot out of his mouth, tearing through the air with a piercing shriek, hurtling straight toward Naruto and Sasuke.
However, while he was using this powerful wind technique, he did not notice that a line of text had slowly slid to his feet.
This is Naruto's Flying Thunder God Technique mark.
The next second, Naruto's figure suddenly disappeared as the Flying Thunder God Technique was activated!
He appeared instantly next to Danzo, positioned right above the graffiti that read "I was here".
Before Danzo could react, Naruto unleashed a spinning kick infused with Sage Mode chakra, slamming into his side like a meteorite.
"Try this comet-hitting-the-Earth trick!"
With a muffled thud, Danzo's body was kicked away violently. Danzo screamed and shot towards Sasuke like a cannonball.
Sasuke was already poised to strike, his half-body Susanoo enveloped in purple chakra, and a giant skeletal foot materialized.
He calculated the landing point precisely, and kicked it in mid-air, as if he were playing a deadly football game.
"Go to hell, you stupid bastard!" Sasuke's Mangekyou Sharingan eyes became even more bloodshot.
Danzo's body was struck by Sasuke's heavy kick mid-air, and the sound of his spine shattering could be clearly heard.
He groaned, his life rapidly slipping away, but the Izanagi technique was automatically triggered, his corpse turning into an illusion, and a new Danzo "refreshed" not far away.
Seven Sharingan eyes.
