Uchiha Gen brought the severed arm up before his eyes, as though examining an interesting piece of art.
The charred muscle tissue was already necrotic, and the air was thick with the burnt protein stench left by the searing Lightning Release.
He looked at the severed arm for a moment, then looked up again to glance at Danzo's increasingly unsightly expression.
