The Whimper of a Defeated Dog

Boom...

The dark crimson "Susanoo" collided viciously with the blinding lightning, unleashing an earth-shattering roar!

The resulting shockwave surged outward in every direction, instantly uprooting swathes of massive trees that several people linking arms could not encircle.

Along with them, large numbers of Kumogakure shinobi in the surrounding area were hurled away.

Fortunately, Killer B, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, was also present. Resisting the torrent-like shockwave, he entered a "partial Tailed Beast transformation" and used his eight powerful tails to catch most of the Kumogakure shinobi who had been blown away.

In the field.

After effortlessly knocking aside the Fourth Raikage's attack, Danzo curled his lips into a mocking grin. "Is that all your anger amounts to?"

The Fourth Raikage, enveloped in brilliant lightning after activating "Lightning Release Chakra Mode," glared furiously at Danzo as he panted. "You bastard!"

Danzo smiled carelessly. "So this is what the whimper of a defeated dog sounds like. How pleasant!"

Having successively defeated the Six Paths of Pain and Kusagakure's army, and even left the leader of Akatsuki, who intimidated the entire shinobi world, utterly helpless, Danzo was no longer interested in playing the part of a madman before the Kumogakure shinobi. Thus, his answer to the Fourth Raikage's earlier question had been the roar of Susanoo!

Only now did Danzo truly experience just how powerful he had become.

This boundless power intoxicated him, making it impossible for him to pull away. That was why, despite being able to conserve chakra and forcibly break through the Grass Ninja encirclement earlier, he had been unable to restrain his surging killing intent and slaughtered hundreds of Grass Ninja instead!

"Danzo, you've truly enraged me this time!" After a pause, the Fourth Raikage roared, "The honor of the Raikage will not permit vermin like you to provoke it!"
