"This eye indeed belongs to Kagami." Danzō said, reaching up to touch his eye socket, a rare moment of contemplation.
"Not just that eye, this one on my hand is also Kagami's eye." This meant that out of the six Sharingan Danzō possessed, two came from Kagami Uchiha.
"Give me Kagami's two eyes. Also, what was the cause of Kagami's death?" Since Shisui had confirmed the eyes belonged to Kagami Uchiha, there was no reason to leave them in Danzō's possession any longer.
"The village rumors were correct; Kagami did indeed sacrifice himself during a top-secret mission. However, it should have been me who died. Kagami saved me from the enemy, at the cost of his own life."
Danzō still remembered the scene clearly. At that moment, he was indeed very grateful to Kagami Uchiha, and then he gouged out Kagami's eyes.
"Before he died, Kagami instructed me to look after the Uchiha clan for him," Danzō recounted expressionlessly. Even if there had been gratitude in his heart, it had long since faded with the passage of decades.
If it weren't for Shisui's variable in this life, Danzō would have truly "failed" Kagami Uchiha's dying wish in a few more years.
"These are Kagami's eyes."
Shisui took the two Three-Tomoe Sharingan handed over by Danzō and placed them in a prepared test tube. The nutrient solution inside could temporarily preserve the biological activity of the eyeballs.
[Detected bloodline of host's closest relative. Using Yamata's Devour can increase host's pupil power.]
The moment he obtained Kagami Uchiha's eyes, the system provided a prompt, allowing Shisui to confirm the origin of this pair of Sharingan.
"As long as it's the bloodline of a close relative, even if they haven't reached my level of power, can I plunder it?"
Shisui noticed that consuming this pair of Sharingan now could only increase his eye's pupil power, not the development of his Indra bloodline.
This was likely the drawback of plundering bloodlines weaker than his own.
"Take these two things." Shisui handed Danzō the White Spiral Mask that Uchiha Madara had given him earlier, along with the Uchiha Gunbai he had requested from Madara. As someone accustomed to using a sword, Shisui had no desire to wield this ancestral weapon of the Uchiha clan.
"Replace both your eyes with Sharingan of the same origin. From today, you will be a staff officer to the Fourth Mizukage. You can publicly claim to be Uchiha Madara."
Although Shisui agreed to join the "Eye of the Moon" plan, he didn't want to be too deeply entangled with it. Shimura Danzō, who had now become a rogue ninja of Konoha with S-rank status, was the perfect candidate to be Shisui's spokesperson.
"Yes, Master." Without hesitation, Danzō dug out his remaining left eye and then plucked two Three-Tomoe Sharingan from his pale right arm, implanting them into his eye sockets.
When he opened his eyes again, with the help of Hashirama Cells, the pair of Sharingan had perfectly adapted to Danzō.
Possessing an unyielding will and top-tier strategy in the ninja world, coupled with an extremely self-centered value system and operating on a top-tier platform, Shimura Danzō was, in a sense, the most perfect ninja in the Naruto world.
As for the remaining two Three-Tomoe Sharingan, Shisui also took them into his possession.
Danzō's current state was peculiar. He retained the ability to think independently and his past memories, yet he unconditionally followed Shisui's orders. This seemingly incredible effect was the overbearing nature of "Kotoamatsukami."
Indeed, Danzō wearing the mask and carrying the Uchiha Gunbai bore a striking resemblance to Obito's appearance from his previous life.
Shisui found it quite amusing to have Danzō, who once deeply hated the Uchiha clan, impersonate Uchiha Madara.
The spokesperson for Uchiha Madara's image was now confirmed.
"Contact Orochimaru for me. I need to see him."
This was the first command Shisui issued after Danzō became "Uchiha Madara."
Since the White Zetsu provided by Uchiha Madara could not be used directly, and Shisui currently needed Hashirama Cells to ensure the normal consumption of Mangekyō pupil techniques, finding another S-rank rogue ninja from Konoha, Orochimaru, was the best solution.
Furthermore, the Sharingan on Danzō's right arm and the Hashirama Cells were Orochimaru's masterpieces. After Orochimaru's defection, Danzō had maintained a cooperative relationship with him, so Shisui was confident that Danzō would not disappoint him.
"Reporting to Master, ever since Orochimaru defected from the village, he fled to the Land of Sound and established Otogakure, building secret experimental bases around the village. If Master wishes, I can contact Orochimaru to meet in Kirigakure."
Danzō and Orochimaru had a relationship of cooperation and mutual suspicion. The dynamics of Orochimaru in the Land of Sound over the years had long been thoroughly investigated by Danzō's spies.
"No need. Give me the location, and I'll go myself."
At this stage, Uchiha Madara was the controller of Kirigakure. Shisui did not want his secrets exposed to the sight of that old fox, who knew what countermeasures he might still have.
"For the time being, you will infiltrate Kirigakure and quickly ascertain the number and abilities of the bloodline clans within the village." This task was crucial for Shisui's own strength improvement, and it was perfectly suited for Danzō, who excelled at intelligence work.

[System releases active mission: Help Shimura Danzō ascend to the position of Kage, fulfilling Danzō's lifelong wish. Mission completion reward: Wind Release Proficiency +100%, a summoning scroll for the Baku clan.]
Shisui had witnessed the strength of the Baku and knew it would be a significant aid to ninjas proficient in Wind and Fire Release.
Moreover, the Baku clan possessed a special ability called "Dream Devour," which could replicate the most terrifying images in an opponent's mind and then manifest them upon the target through genjutsu, perfectly complementing the genjutsu abilities of the Uchiha clan's Sharingan.
During the previous battle with Danzō, this ability of the Baku had not been fully utilized due to the overwhelming power of the Mangekyō Sharingan.

After receiving the system's rewards, Shisui's Wind Release proficiency also broke through to the proficient level.
He could feel that even the gentle breeze around his body was under his command.
Perhaps Shisui's self-created ninjutsu combining Fire and Wind Release was not far off.
