Danzo immediately returned the way he came, and when he came out of the cave, he ran into Uchiha Shisui.

Puff!

The two Danzo's Wind Blade clashed with Uchiha Shisui's fire blade, but there was no clanging sound of weapons clashing; instead, it was as if water and fire were colliding.

The two passed each other and landed on the ground.

The two quickly adjusted their stance after landing and charged at each other again.

Puff!

Shimura Danzō powerful, but Shisui was still young and strong. In addition, due to the difference in Sharingan and the invasion of the Four Black Mist Formation into his body, his Chakra circulation was somewhat sluggish.

Despite being at a disadvantage in many aspects, Danzo's resistance was greatly reduced due to the influence of Uchiha Shisui Genjutsu. In the midst of the clash, Danzo was defeated instantly with a slight delay, and his head flew off.

Shisui remained fully alert, not letting his guard down even after killing Danzo.

Danzo's office was a spacious space with nine holes in the walls, seven of which were traps, one was an entrance connecting to the Root's main hall, and one was a hidden exit.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At the entrance connecting to the hall, a dense Danzo of Kunai like machine gun fire. Danzo, who had escaped using Izanagi, was then attacked by Kunai Uchiha Itachi had blocked the entrance.

Danzo, wielding Kunai, managed to parry a few ninja tools, but before he could even unleash Ninjutsu, he was pierced through the heart by one of them.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

His reaction speed was affected by the injury, making him even more unable to resist. In less than two seconds, his entire body was covered with dense ninja tools, and he fell to the ground and died again.

Shisui looked up at the Kunai projected in from the entrance, then glanced at the corpse on the ground. Danzo's body had disappeared without a trace.

Danzo emerged from a cave in the wall, looking down at Uchiha Shisui with a blank expression.

In the past, Danzo to ambush or annihilate others, but today Danzo experienced firsthand how he could be outnumbered and outmatched.

Danzo previously died by suicide under mysterious circumstances, and had just been beheaded by Uchiha Shisui. When he tried to escape through the exit, he was blocked by Uchiha Itachi, who shot Kunai into the closed passage, killing him once more.

Izanagi can turn unfavorable situations into illusions, but the caster's whereabouts are traceable. After Izanagi takes effect, the caster can only appear in the places they have been before.

Even though Danzo still had many opportunities, a sense of unease couldn't help but rise within him at this moment. However, Danzo had been in a high position for a long time, and his face remained expressionless, making it impossible for anyone to fathom his thoughts.

Uchiha Shisui noticed Danzo at the cave Danzo above, sheathed his short sword on his back, crossed his hands, and white smoke drifted from his palms, revealing two Shuriken.

Shisui swung his arm, sending the Shuriken hurtling towards Danzo above. The white smoke grew thicker and thicker as Shisui used the A-rank Ninjutsu Lightning Flash Sword Transformation to quickly summon ninja tools from the sealed wrist on his wrist.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Danzo noticed Uchiha Shisui's movements below, took out two four-cornered Shuriken from his ninja tool pouch at his waist, placed them to his lips, and Danzo Shuriken, infusing them with sharp wind-style Chakra.

The Shuriken, imbued with Wind Style Chakra, expanded in size, their destructive power becoming visibly formidable. Danzo swung his arm, sending two Wind Style Shuriken hurtling downwards towards Shisui.

Both attacked simultaneously, Danzo's Wind Release: Shuriken was more powerful. Danzo controlled its rotation, blocking the vast majority of the ninja tools.

Wind Style: Vacuum Serial Waves!

In the contest of ninja tools, Danzo hand Hand Seals and activated a powerful Wind Release Ninjutsu. He swung his head, creating a howling wind that included several Wind Blade several meters long, which swiftly attacked Uchiha Shisui.

Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Technique!

Shisui also Hand Seals, puffed out his mouth, and created a large fire dragon head, four or five meters in size, which collided head-on with Danzo's Wind Release Ninjutsu.

Although Shisui's Ninjutsu appeared smaller in scale than Danzo's, in the Shinobi World, fire counters wind, and wind and fire Ninjutsu clashed. Stimulated by the Wind Style, the Great Dragon Fire grew larger and larger, becoming increasingly intense and powerful, quickly overpowering Danzo's Wind Style and forcefully rushing towards the cave where Danzo was located.

Boom!

The monstrous dragon head slammed into the wall where Danzo was, producing a deafening roar and billowing smoke.

"Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!"

Danzo had already fled. When Shisui used his own Ninjutsu, Great Dragon Fire, to obscure Shisui's vision, Danzo had already run away and returned to the entrance.

With a wide-open mouth, a gust of wind cleared a path, preventing further attacks from Uchiha Itachi's ninja tools, and quickly followed the wind away from the office cave.

Danzo escaped the office cave and jumped onto the wooden suspension bridge below. In mid-air, a strong wind came from behind Danzo.

Danzo, wielding Kunai imbued with wind-style Chakra, Wind Blade around in mid-air and swiftly slashed backward.

Pfft!

A long sword pierced through Danzo's abdomen. Danzo had no view of what was behind him and couldn't turn around in time. Relying on his combat instincts, he countered with a horizontal slash, but Uchiha Itachi crouched down and dodged, only managing to Danzo off a few of Uchiha Itachi's hair. Danzo was once again at a disadvantage in the fight and was seriously injured.

Uchiha Itachi gripped the longsword with both hands, pierced Danzo, then pressed himself against Danzo, twisting the hilt of the sword with force.

"Uchiha Itachi!"

Despite the excruciating pain, Danzo did not cry out. Danzo, he roared the name of Uchiha Itachi, his eyes bloodshot and crimson. With his right hand, he wielded Wind Blade, aiming for Uchiha Itachi's back, while simultaneously grabbing for Uchiha Itachi's throat with his left.

Uchiha Itachi landed a hit, and seeing Danzo grabbing his left hand, he released his sword hilt with his right hand and grabbed Danzo's left hand instead.

"Um!?"

Danzo's right-hand Wind Blade was behind Itachi's back, out of his sight. Sensing the imminent danger of death, Uchiha Itachi reacted as his life hung by a thread. He pulled in his abdomen and stepped on the exposed hilt of the sword that had pierced Danzo, using his strength to jump.

Itachi's movements were ultimately a step too slow; Danzo's Wind Blade pierced deeply Danzo his calf, even embedding Kunai inside. Sharp wind-style Chakra burst forth from Itachi's calf.

Fortunately, Uchiha Itachi was agile, and his other leg was not pierced by the wide, long Wind Blade. Their aerial battle was extremely dangerous.

Uchiha Itachi disappeared into the shadows once more, and at the Danzo exit, Uchiha Shisui, having sensed Danzo's departure, gave chase.

Severely injured, Danzo glared resentfully at Itachi as he walked away, and at Uchiha Shisui as he jumped down from the cave.

Danzo landed on the wooden bridge, turned around, and quickly ran away.

Uchiha Itachi's sneak attack Danzo a single sword strike. As Uchiha Itachi was leaving, he used the hilt of the sword to push off, further exacerbating Danzo.

Danzo the sword blade protruding from his abdomen between two fingers, blood gushing from his mouth, but he neither grimaced nor cried out in pain, silently running away quickly.

In about ten seconds, Danzo ran to the small square in the center of the base.

"This sword... is problematic!"

The more Danzo, the more his Chakra became blocked and unable to be activated, as if he were under Fuinjutsu. He guessed that the problem lay with the sword on his body.

"Uh-huh!"

Danzo, standing in the small square, used two fingers to grip the blade and forcefully pushed the longsword that had pierced through his body out of his body. The pain caused Danzo to groan involuntarily.

As the longsword was drawn, Danzo's blocked Chakra resumed its flow. Without resting, Danzo endured his injuries and quickly formed five hand seals.

Hai-Xu-You-Shen-Wei

"Summoning Technique! Come forth, Baku!"
