Chapter 16: Are You Trying To Destroy Konoha?!
Just as Danzo was shocked, his pupils reflected the crimson figure of Uchiha Ikeizumi instantly closing in within arm’s reach, startling Danzo into immediately dodging while his hands rapidly formed seals.
“Wind Release—”
Danzo fiercely inhaled, his chest cavity exaggeratingly expanding a few times, until that breath was forcefully exhaled.
“Vacuum Sphere!!!”
He still didn’t tear open the bandages on his body.
If he exposed all those Sharingan under the bandages in public, probably all of Konoha’s Bloodline Limit ninja clans would view him, Danzo, as an enemy.
After all, no one wanted to see a Bloodline Limit hunter lurking inside the village.
The Wind Release Chakra accumulated in his mouth shot out toward Uchiha Ikeizumi like machine gun bullets.
Each “Vacuum Sphere” was about half the size of a baby’s fist.
When they hit nearby houses, they even pierced round holes through thick walls!
But…
When the large number of “Vacuum Spheres” landed on Uchiha Ikeizumi’s body, it was like throwing stones into water.
Although they splashed up bursts of lava “water splashes,” they could never break through that weird Lava Release defense.
Drip…
Drip…
With every step Uchiha Ikeizumi took forward, the terrifying high temperature left a series of flaming shoe prints on the ground, and the sulfur smell in the air was already so thick it was nearly dizzying.
“Damn it, it’s really very similar to the Hozuki Clan’s Water Transformation Technique… turning one’s body into an element of nature to immunize against most physical attacks, a Bloodline Limit ninjutsu?”
“At least, my Wind Release has little effect on him!”
Danzo’s face was extremely ugly, his sinister eyes flashing with various uncertain expressions amid the gravity: “No… there’s absolutely no invincible ability, there must be a weakness…”
“That monkey guy may have a weak personality, but he absolutely wouldn’t tolerate an Uchiha Clan member without weaknesses and out of control.”
Danzo suddenly thought.
The only time Uchiha Ikeizumi blocked a ninjutsu attack was blocking the Water Release used by two Root ninjas.
Right!
Water Release…
Could it be the weakness of this naturally evil Uchiha brat?
Water Release wasn’t a ninjutsu Danzo specialized in, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t use it.
Suddenly!
Danzo saw Uchiha Ikeizumi raise one arm, with one finger on the arm pointing toward him.
The lava-flowing fingertip seemed to be accumulating power about to erupt.
“Bad!”
At that same instant, scorching lumps of lava shot out from Uchiha Ikeizumi’s fingertip!
Dense mini lava bombs dragged arcs of light straight toward Danzo!
“Lava Release: Lava Scattered Shot.”
Danzo’s pupils contracted, he rapidly formed seals and slammed both palms on the ground: “Water Release: Water Formation Wall!!!”
A water wall rose up.
A large number of lava bombs crashed into the water formation wall, the pervasive sulfur smell and scalding steam making Danzo break out in cold sweat.
If it had been even half a second later, he would have had to use the power of his Sharingan to dodge Uchiha Ikeizumi’s attack.
Damn it!
Half of my skills are in Wind Release, the other half in Sharingan and Wood Style.
As a result, of these three skills, one has no effect at all on that naturally evil Uchiha brat, and the other two can’t be used in public.
The piercing pain occasionally coming from his left ear made Danzo extremely furious inside.
He had never felt this stifled before.
Too restricted!
If only the battlefield were somewhere else, if only he had made more preparations and brought more Root ninjas, Danzo guaranteed he could kill this evil Uchiha brat!
After all…
A year ago, he had killed Uchiha Shisui that way.
No matter how amazing an Uchiha genius was, they couldn’t withstand a group attack, let alone unpredictable conspiracies.
But.
Today’s conflict with Uchiha Ikeizumi was too rushed.
This was different from facing Shisui back then.
“Hm?” At that moment, through the semi-transparent water formation wall’s faintly visible scene, Danzo vaguely saw a large patch of crimson light appearing ahead.
“Lava Release: Great Eruption.”
A lava giant fist swollen to the size of a house was crushing toward the water formation wall with overwhelming force, melting even the ground in its path.
The volcanic eruption-like terrifying impact force instantly shattered the water formation wall, the scorching temperature evaporating all the water in an instant!
In Danzo’s vision, the lava giant fist suddenly expanded several times over the moment it broke through the water formation wall.
The enormous lava flood surged straight toward him!
Making Danzo momentarily think he was facing a tsunami of lava!
‘—Izanagi!!!’
Danzo couldn’t worry about it anymore; whether to save his own old life or to kill this naturally evil Uchiha brat, he had to activate the power of his Sharingan.
The rolling lava flood instantly engulfed his aged, frail body; human flesh simply couldn’t withstand the lava’s scorching.
In less than a second, Danzo’s entire body vaporized.
The surging lava even erased half the street’s buildings.
Danzo died.
But he didn’t die.
The ability of the Sharingan forbidden secret technique “Izanagi” is to rewrite any event unfavorable to oneself, including death.
Once activated with the Sharingan, it inevitably causes blindness. And this ability to rewrite unfavorable events lasts a full minute.
When one transplanted Sharingan inside the bandages fully closed, the human water vapor lingering in the air instantly condensed together and rapidly formed a human shape.
The “revived” Danzo had a grim face, bursting with killing intent.
“Danzo!!!”
“Stop!!!”
At that very moment, one figure after another suddenly appeared on this street, quickly surrounding the entire street.
The attire of these figures was all Anbu of Konoha.
Fully three Anbu squads mobilized together.
Led by Sarutobi Hiruzen, they finally arrived.
……
Looking at the devastated street in front of him, breathing the weird smell in the air, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn’t help coughing a few times.
His old face didn’t look good either.
“Danzo! What are you doing!!!” Behind Sarutobi Hiruzen followed Kakashi and other Anbu guards, his hands behind his back, his wrinkled old face stern as he aggressively entered the battlefield.
“This is Konoha! Are you trying to destroy Konoha, Danzo!”
Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately shouted.
Danzo: “???”
Such a big commotion here, Danzo could understand the monkey guy being drawn over.
But he couldn’t understand why, upon arriving, the other side aggressively questioned him, Danzo.
“Sarutobi! What do you mean!”
Danzo didn’t even call him “Hiruzen” anymore, gritting his teeth as he retorted: “What right do you have to say I’m destroying Konoha? On the contrary, if I can kill this ambitious Uchiha brat today, I’m saving Konoha!”
He angrily pointed at Uchiha Ikeizumi: “This naturally evil Uchiha brat just tried to use Sharingan to control the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, recreating the Nine-Tails chaos from years ago!”
“If I hadn’t happened to appear and see that scene, Konoha would already be destroyed by him!”
