"Only I! Only I can become Hokage and make Konoha strong again!"
Danzo gazed at Uzumaki Sora with blazing fervor. In just over a year, he had already learned to use Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence—and possessed the Uchiha's Mangekyō Sharingan, which surpassed the Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
The power of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and Madara Uchiha had reappeared in a single person!
"Zzz..."
The long blade scraped across the ground, kicking up a trail of sparks.
Sora slowly walked up to Danzo and asked, puzzled, "Where do you get all that confidence? Your men are all dead, and you're still putting on airs? Are you sick?"

"Shinobi battles aren't decided by who's stronger or weaker. Only intelligence determines the outcome!"

His long blade swept sideways. Backed by the strength of his Sage Body, the blow cut Danzo in half.
