Danzo stiffened, then burst out laughing. "Tsukuyomi? Your Tsukuyomi world?"
"Ha ha ha, how ridiculous. Since when did Tsukuyomi become such a commonplace Ninjutsu? Any stray cat or dog can use it?"
"You don't believe me?" Ye Lan asked with a soft laugh.
Danzo looked around again, and his gaze gradually grew certain.
"Heh, youngster, I really don't know whether you're genuinely stupid or only pretending. Someone without even a Sharingan is talking to me about Tsukuyomi? Do you even know what kind of Ninjutsu Tsukuyomi is? Frankly, I doubt you've even figured out what Tsukuyomi is."
"Though I have to admit, you're quite skilled at deception. But you can't even tell reality from illusion, and you dare claim this is Tsukuyomi?"
Ye Lan grinned. "If you don't believe me, then I can only show you."
Ye Lan said nothing more. He slowly took a kunai from his pocket and walked toward Danzo.
Then he aimed the kunai at Danzo and lightly pushed it forward. Danzo instinctively tried to dodge, only to discover in horror that he could do nothing at all. He could only watch helplessly as the kunai drew closer and closer to his body.
Danzo suddenly realized that his body seemed frozen in place. No matter how he gathered Chakra, he could not move even an inch.
Ye Lan lightly pressed the kunai against Danzo's chest and said, "Do you believe me now?"
Danzo put on a fierce front despite his fear. "What exactly did you do to me? I'm telling you, I am the direct commander of the Anbu, second only to the Third Hokage in Konoha. If you dare harm me, then unless you kill me, no matter where you go in the future, you'll face the endless pursuit of every ninja in the Land of Fire. You'll never know peace!!"
As if he had not heard Danzo's words, Ye Lan not only failed to withdraw the kunai but pushed it forward another fraction. Its tip had already pierced Danzo's chest.
Danzo's body trembled faintly.
Gritting his teeth, he said, "You brat... how dare you!!!"
Ye Lan chuckled. "If I truly didn't dare, this kunai wouldn't have entered your body, would it? What do you think, Lord Danzo?"
Ignoring Danzo's roar, Ye Lan continued to slowly feed the kunai into Danzo's body.
Danzo shook even more violently, his teeth clenched tight. Clearly, he was enduring immense pain, as though he would be unable to bear it any longer at any moment.
The kunai advanced very slowly. It did not pierce Danzo's heart outright, but instead sank in bit by bit.
Meanwhile, Ye Lan looked completely at ease, as if he were not the one controlling the kunai at all.
Danzo's clothes had long since been soaked through with cold sweat. His entire body had fallen into a state of collapse—or rather, he was already not far from death.
Danzo glared fixedly at Ye Lan. He simply refused to believe that this young man with such bizarre abilities truly dared to kill him!
A disdainful smile slowly appeared on Ye Lan's lips, as if he were saying, I don't care who you are. Anyone who provokes me, even if you're the king of heaven himself, I'll slaughter you like a dog!
Danzo's face was full of unwillingness. He seemed unwilling to die like this. He had imagined dying while fighting for the position of Hokage, or dying at the hands of an enemy for Konoha—but what he found most unacceptable was that he would die in such a manner today!
