"Sasuke was right after all!"
Hearing these words from Danzo, Shisui's mind immediately flashed back to the many times Sasuke had warned him not to trust the Konoha higher-ups, but instead to protect the Uchiha Clan.
Without Sasuke's warning, Shisui had originally intended to use his strongest genjutsu, Kotoamatsukami, to quell the coup. But now, Shisui felt that would have been a mistake; no matter how much the Uchiha Clan conceded, the Konoha higher-ups would still have moved to kill them.
Thinking of how his own foolish error had nearly doomed the Uchiha Clan, a wave of lingering fear washed over Shisui.
"Shisui, for the sake of the village, do not resist. Hand over your eyes!"
Just as turmoil churned within Shisui's heart, Danzo suddenly drew a kunai and launched an attack, his figure transforming into a blurred shadow as he lunged toward Shisui with lightning speed.
"Danzo, I won't let you succeed..."
With a shout, just as Danzo entered the one-meter radius around him, Shisui activated his Sharingan. Silver light flickered at his feet, and his figure retreated several meters as if he had teleported.
Immediately following this, Shisui quickly drew his katana and slashed horizontally. Simultaneously, a blade of flame manifested, slicing rapidly toward Danzo.
Being able to create distance in such a short time clearly shocked Danzo. Sensing the blade of flame rushing toward his face, he sneered, his body already appearing in mid-air.
"Wind Style: Vacuum Wave!"
The blade of flame flew beneath Danzo's feet, and then Danzo puffed out his cheeks, instantly spitting out a linear blade of wind.
The Sharingan had long since seen through the attack of the transparent wind blade. Silver light flickered at Shisui's feet, and his figure retreated a few more steps in an instant.
After dodging Danzo's attack, he looked up to see that Danzo had already landed on the ground, standing calmly not far away. Shisui held up two fingers and activated the Body Flicker Technique!
"Shing!"
Instantly appearing behind Danzo, Shisui's katana pierced directly into Danzo's body.
"What?"
Not expecting his simple attack to actually hit Danzo, Shisui's eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.
When he had swung his blade just now, Shisui had fully believed Danzo would dodge it, but Danzo had neither dodged nor defended.
"As expected of Body Flicker Shisui!"
Ignoring the fact that the katana had pierced through his body, Danzo spoke in a low voice to Shisui.
Staring fixedly at Danzo's face, where there was not a trace of pain but rather a faint, cold sneer, Shisui's heart sank slightly.
However, Shisui's realization came a moment too late. The Danzo he had just stabbed suddenly vanished, and then Danzo reappeared to the side.
"How is this possible?"
Looking at the scene before him, cold sweat instantly slid down Shisui's forehead.
Shisui could be one hundred percent certain that the Danzo he had just stabbed was definitely not a Shadow Clone, but the real body. Yet, the current situation was that Danzo's real body was standing perfectly unharmed to the side.
The shock lasted only a few breaths in Shisui's mind, but as he gradually regained his clarity, a fierce, rushing sound of wind echoed through the air.
"Go to hell!"
At such close range, Shisui had completely lost the chance to dodge. In an instant, his face was covered in horror and despair!
"Shing!"
Danzo's kunai pierced through the resistance of space, stabbing heavily into the chest of the horrified Shisui.
"Pfft!"
A sharp, intense pain erupted from his chest. A strange flush surged onto Shisui's horrified face, and a moment later, unable to endure it any longer, he spat out a mouthful of crimson blood.
Enduring the agonizing pain, Shisui recoiled, attempting to continue the fight.
Taking a slow step forward, Danzo looked indifferently at the pale-faced Shisui, his calm voice echoing across the field.
"Finish him!"
No sooner had Danzo's voice fallen than over a dozen Root members wearing masks appeared around Shisui, all of them throwing kunai and shuriken in an attempt to end his life.
Watching the dense swarm of shuriken and kunai flying toward him, Shisui's Sharingan changed abruptly; the original three-tomoe red pupil transformed into a four-leaf windmill pattern.
Countless kunai and shuriken shot into the ground where Shisui stood. In an instant, dust billowed, completely enveloping the area where Shisui was within the blink of an eye.
"Is it finished?"
Staring intently at the dust-filled area where Shisui had been, one of the Root members muttered to himself.
Danzo narrowed his eyes, and after a moment, he suddenly said in a low voice, "This guy, he really isn't that easy to deal with!"
As Danzo's words faded, the swirling dust gradually thinned. Finally, under the gaze of a dozen pairs of eyes, a massive green light faintly emerged from within the dust.
The giant green light stepped slowly out of the dust-filled area, and when the Root members saw the massive size of the figure that had appeared, a trace of shock washed over them.
The green light, shaped like a skeleton and wrapped in cloak-like chakra, was incredibly tall and fierce, wielding a massive spiral sword in its right hand.
In the center of the giant green light, Shisui stood, panting and looking extremely weak.
Looking at the cyan energy giant that had appeared in their line of sight, the entire field fell silent. Although they didn't know exactly what had happened, the Root members knew that the giant before them was extremely dangerous.
"Is this the other power of the Mangekyo Sharingan, Susanoo?"
Light flickered in Danzo's eyes, and after a long while, he muttered to himself.
Susanoo, the third power that can only be unlocked by awakening a pair of Mangekyo Sharingan, is also known as the power of the gods. The essence of Susanoo is a materialized form of chakra, a massive amount of chakra forming a humanoid shape that surrounds the user.
Susanoo possesses terrifying destructive power and supreme defensive capabilities, and it can also unleash various techniques. Naturally, because the Mangekyo Sharingan abilities differ for every individual, the appearance of their Susanoo and the techniques they employ vary as well.
"Danzo, for the sake of the Uchiha Clan, I will not yield to you!"
A trace of resolve flickered across his pale face as Shisui slowly raised his head and shouted at Danzo.
As Shisui's voice fell, the chest armor of his Susanoo instantly opened, and from its center, countless green chakra arrows were launched to conduct a long-range assault on Danzo and his men.
"Retreat, all of you! Do not let those green arrows touch you!"
Knowing that those green arrows were certainly not simple, Danzo hurriedly warned his subordinates.
"Yes!"
Hearing Danzo's command, the members of Root responded in unison, then retreated backward without the slightest hesitation.
Seeing Danzo and the others pulling back, Shisui pressed his palms together and rapidly formed hand seals, after which his Susanoo spat out a massive fireball.
The fireball descended like a meteor falling from the heavens, slamming heavily into the ground.
"Thank you to Muyan, this person is already dead, and LL Kengbi for the tips!
It is said that Shisui's Susanoo is the most beautiful; everyone can search for it and take a look!
I will add a chapter once we reach 500 recommendation votes! Let's work hard together!"
