Chapter 55 Danzo's End
Chapter 55 Danzo's End
The sky was torn open by the thunderstorm, with countless cracks appearing and disappearing in the clouds. Blue and purple lightning bolts surged wildly between the clouds, and the shadow of the thunder dragon loomed in and out of the clouds, filling the entire battlefield with the acrid smell of ionization.
Thunder dragons swept across the sky multiple times, their immense energy plundering the entire ground, leaving scorched earth and ruins everywhere.
The once-hard rocks were now rolling up like melted butter. The bodies of the Root ninjas who had died in battle had long been destroyed by the aftershocks of the fight, leaving not a single drop of blood behind.
Danzo rose from the ruins once more, panting heavily.
After dying multiple times, Danzo had very few Sharingan eyes left on his left arm, and Fugaku's eyes began to close halfway.
However, Uchiha An's left eye technique had already begun to exert its power, continuously converting eye power into Yang Release and pouring it into Fugaku's eye, maintaining this high-frequency, high-intensity battle.
Danzo knew that if this dragged on, he would surely be defeated. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he had already made up his mind.
He reached out and cut his palm, and as blood flowed out, he quickly formed a hand seal and slammed his hands onto the ground.
The moment the palm touched the ground, a complex psychic incantation rapidly unfolded on the ground.
With a "poof," accompanied by a burst of white smoke, the Dream Eater was summoned. Its massive body slammed heavily onto the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The Dream Eater was covered in wounds and was completely bewildered by the sudden change in environment.
Before it could react, a deafening thunderclap suddenly filled the air, and a menacing thunder dragon pounced towards it, its body crackling with deadly lightning.
The immense power of lightning made its fur stand on end even before it got close, and the shock made its whole body go numb from afar. It was so frightened that it screamed, its voice filled with terror and anger.
"Danzo, what are you doing?!"
"Are you trying to kill me?"
"Shut up!" Danzo stood atop Baku's head, his hands forming hand seals, and roared viciously, "Send me to that evil Uchiha right now!"
Given Danzo's personality, even if it's a summoned beast, it's not an equal contract, but a forced slave contract.
Under the control of the handprint, the dream-eating beast had no way to escape. It could only let out a mournful cry, raise its long nose high, take a deep breath, and then exhale violently, creating a fierce storm.
The gale whipped up rubble and dust from the ground, forming a moving wall that clashed head-on with the Thunder Dragon.
The moment the two forces collided, a deafening roar erupted, and a blinding light illuminated the entire battlefield.
The shockwave spread outwards in all directions from this point.
Danzo had anticipated this, and just before the impact, he leaped out of the Baku's body and positioned himself in mid-air.
As the shockwave erupted, he curled up into a ball, using his back to absorb the violent shockwave. At the cost of severe injury, he used the force of the shockwave to propel himself like a cannonball across a long distance, landing heavily at Susanoo's feet.
"Wow!"
As soon as he landed, Danzo spat out a mouthful of blood, but he ignored his injuries and immediately charged towards Susanoo with incredible speed.
At this moment, the two were only a dozen meters apart. Even if Susanoo wanted to retreat, it wouldn't be so easy.
A fierce glint flashed in Danzo's eyes. He suddenly ripped open his coat, formed hand seals, and streams of dark runes leaped out of his body, spreading outwards in all directions from his body as the core.
"Sealing Technique: Inner Four Symbols Sealing!"
In the original manga, by the end of his battle with Sasuke, his body was half-crippled, and he could barely walk. This meant that the powerful sealing technique was completely wasted and its effects were negligible.
Although he was seriously injured, he was not completely exhausted. By using a secret technique to activate his life force, he could temporarily forget all his pain and fight as if he were in his prime.
As he formed hand seals, he ran forward rapidly, trying to get closer to Uchiha An and ensure that the sealing technique, which would result in mutual destruction, would seal Uchiha An inside.
"Hehe..." Uchiha An had been waiting for him to do this, so he sneered and instead of retreating, he took a step forward and swung the scepter in Susanoo's hand in a wide arc, like hitting a golf ball, and slapped it down.
Danzo changed direction quickly as he ran, but in the face of the Mangekyou Sharingan's perception, all his movements were as slow as a snail.
He was releasing a sealing technique and couldn't use a substitution jutsu or other ninjutsu to evade it, so he could only watch helplessly as the energy staff gradually enlarged in front of him and finally slammed into his face.
With a "whoosh," Danzo was sent flying by a single blow.
"No..." Amid Danzo's screams, the Reverse Four Symbols Seal was successfully triggered.
However, this sealing technique was centered on his body, and he himself was blasted into the sky like a meteor.
The sealing technique has a wide range, but Danzo's flight speed is even faster!
When the spell was activated, he was sent flying hundreds of meters away, neither touching the sky nor the ground, and in the end, he couldn't even seal half of the bridge.
Uchiha An shaded his eyes with his hand, gazing at the spherical seal that had suddenly appeared around Danzo, and then watched as Danzo's body stiffened, fell from mid-air, and turned into a pile of minced meat.
He stood there quietly for a while, and only after seeing that Danzo's body had not disappeared again did he feel relieved enough to release Susanoo and go over to check his spoils.
Without Danzo's control, Baku had long since broken free from his summoning abilities and made a hasty escape.
Unfortunately, Danzo was really making a desperate last stand this time. After failing, he destroyed all the Sharingan on his body, especially Shisui's Kotoamatsukami.
"Hmph, you got off easy!"
Uchiha An snorted coldly and called out to his side:
"White Zetsu, come out! I know you're here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a white Zetsu emerged from the ground not far away, wriggling its body in an exaggerated manner.
"Oh my god, that scared me to death! That thunder dragon was so terrifying!"
"Enough with the nonsense!" Uchiha An said impatiently, "Have you gotten everything I asked for?"
"I got them all."
"What about the materials I was asked to prepare?"
"Everything's ready, just waiting for you to unleash your magic and cause a ruckus. Your plan is so interesting, I'm really looking forward to it!"
"Then let's stop talking and go!"
After Uchiha An finished speaking, he walked outside first, but White Zetsu swayed his body and exclaimed in surprise:
"I'm afraid that's not possible!"
"The plan ran into a small problem. Instead of going to find Kurama, Obito started fighting with Kakashi."
"The Nine-Tails hasn't been released yet, so I'm afraid this task will have to be assigned to you."
