Night of Root Extermination

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

Laugh!

Danzo's right hand, which was reaching for Shisui's eyes, was severed by a long blade of lightning.

His pale right hand had multiple scarlet eyes, making him look extremely ferocious and evil.

After severing Danzo with his approximately twenty-meter-long Chidori Blade, Uchiha Ruofeng swung his arm and slashed towards Danzo's neck, preparing to behead Danzo.

Puff!

After Danzo's arm was severed, a hint of regret appeared in his eyes as he allowed the lightning blade to decapitate him. Danzo's head flew off, and his body, losing all strength, collapsed to the ground.

Uchiha Shisui's eyes showed lingering fear. Danzo meant that if it weren't for his teammates' cover, Danzo would probably have succeeded long ago.

"Danzo! Just how many Uchiha clansmen have you killed?!"

Danzo's Izanagi was used as if it were free, causing intense anger to blaze in the eyes of Ruofeng and Shisui who were present.

All three people in the field had their eyes attacked by Danzo, and each was nearly succeeded in their attack, but fortunately, their teammates provided cover and assistance for each other.

If he were to face Danzo alone, he might have already been Danzo and killed by Danzo.

Shisui turned to look at Ruofeng, nodded slightly, and leaped away, disappearing into the dark Root base to hide and rest, recovering his Chakra.

Danzo's figure materialized and solidified before Baku's massive foot.

Danzo's expression remained as calm and indifferent as he gazed at Uchiha Ruofeng before him.

"Uchiha Flame Formation!" x4

A crimson array of flames enveloped the small square.

Upon discovering Danzo's attempt to escape, Uchiha Nara, positioned above, created four Shadow Clones. These Shadow Clone used Camouflage Stealth Technique to conceal themselves, and then the Uchiha Flame Formation was deployed around the small plaza.

Shimura Danzō's true form gazed at the red barrier that had been erected before him, and then surveyed its four corners.

"This Chakra sensation, is it the Fourth Hokage? Or the Fourth Person?"

Danzo had never used his Sharingan to observe Uchiha Nara, but he secretly speculated about the different Chakra patterns on the four corners compared to the three he had fought before.

Although Naraku's Shadow Clone are invisible, Danzo's Sharingan in Danzo right eye can directly see the Chakra pathways within the invisible person's body.

At the same time, even someone as resolute as Danzo couldn't help but feel a pang of despair.

Uchiha Ruofeng looked at Danzo in front of him and realized that this was Shadow Clone. He remained silent, his Chakra surged, and Chakra skeleton appeared around his body.

"Susanoo!"

Uchiha Ruofeng's Susanoo shape. Ruofeng's second form Susanoo twenty meters tall and has no armor, but it can use weapons and the Yasaka Magatama.

The blue Susanoo giant's hands surged, and two swords about ten meters long appeared. With Susanoo cut Danzo and the tall Summoning Beast Baku into white smoke and disappeared.

White smoke filled the barrier, and Danzo's true form, Danzo behind Baku's feet, leaped to the center of the small square and revealed itself.

"This barrier not only binds me, it's also your cage! Your Sharingan is filthy, I don't want it anymore!"

Danzo realized that it was too difficult to steal the Sharingan from these people, so he stopped Sharingan with that goal.

Danzo tore open his clothes, revealing black Four-Symbols Seal patterns on his chest. At the same time, Danzo thrust his Kunai into his heart, and black blood splattered in all directions.

Black blood splattered extremely quickly, covering the entire Uchiha Flame Formation.

"Fuinjutsu: Reverse Four-Symbols Seal! Die!"

With Danzo's hysterical roar, the splattered black blood turned into grayish-black spheres.

Within the Uchiha Flame Formation, a massive gray-black sphere burst through the plaza floor, engulfing even Uchiha Ruofeng's Susanoo.

"Oops!"

Naraku, watching from above, sensed something was wrong and immediately dispelled the Shadow Clone Technique. The four Shadow Clones were released, and the Uchiha Flame Formation also disappeared.

Uchiha Ruofeng sensed the danger, and his eyes emitted an eerie red light.

"Mangekyō Sharingan!"

Uchiha Ruofeng's Mangekyō Sharingan has two abilities: the left Dōjutsu amplifies the power of Ninjutsu, while the right Dōjutsu reduces energy consumption and can also deplete dojutsu power to reduce the enemy's Ninjutsu power.

Ruofeng Mangekyō Sharingan to its fullest potential, he reduced the power of the Reverse Four-Symbols Seal by several times.

The gray-black barrier that originally covered the nearly 100-meter-wide plaza has strangely shrunk to cover only 20 meters, reducing its area by five times.

Uchiha Ruofeng quickly dispelled Susanoo, dodged backward, and jumped away from the Reverse Four-Symbols Seal's range.

The twenty-meter-long gray-black sphere of light suddenly shrank, Danzo's body fell to the ground at the same time.

The Reverse Four-Symbols Seal uses Chakra to propel one's own blood into a barrier; it's a technique that results in mutual destruction.

Orochimaru! Aren't you going to make a move?!

Just as Shimura Danzō, who had collapsed to the ground, vanished into nothingness, Shimura Danzō, who was running rapidly towards a cave not far away, shouted loudly.

Danzo three opponents single-handedly and employing every trick in the book, knew that without help, he would likely perish at the hands of these young, top-tier Uchiha fighters.

These shameless and evil Uchiha youths, lacking any sense of martial ethics, ganged up on their elderly self.

Danzo brimming with Chakra and his breathing was steady. Although he had the advantage in terms of condition, those three elite Uchiha who had run out of Chakra might not be able to defeat him.

However, the Uchiha Flame Formation just now indicates that a new Uchiha expert has arrived.

The Uchiha Flame Formation was executed using Shadow Clone. In the heat of the moment, Danzo hadn't thought things through carefully, but now, during his escape, Danzo realized who it was.

The Uchiha Flame Formation is a high-level barrier Ninjutsu, generally requiring four skilled Uchiha to perform. The four people with similar Chakra pathways just now were clearly Shadow Clone. Among the Uchiha clan members, only the Hokage likely possesses this level of skill.

Danzo showed no interest in fighting and fled quickly.

Uchiha Ruofeng noticed Danzo fleeing and leaped to catch up, silently pursuing Danzo. Uchiha Shisui, who had been lying in wait, also revealed himself, leaping a few times to follow closely behind Uchiha Ruofeng, maintaining a certain distance between them and supporting each other.

Danzo's face was cold and stern, and as before, it was impossible to guess his thoughts from his expression.

"Danzo, do you know where I'm hiding?"

Orochimaru licked his lips as he watched Danzo towards him, along with the two Uchiha fighters behind him.

Orochimaru ignored Danzo's cries for Danzo.

Danzo and several elite Uchiha warriors had fought several battles, and they were all in poor condition. Now was indeed a good time to strike and take them for himself.

"That barrier from before?"

Orochimaru's newly excited thoughts returned to calm as he recalled the barrier from earlier.

After fighting for so long, and for something so important, there's no reason why the Hokage wouldn't come.

Orochimaru licked his lips, but ultimately did not reveal himself, choosing to remain hidden and observe the situation.

Danzo, keeping an eye on the six holes in the wall.

One of the caves is an abandoned rest area for the Root members, but no members have ever been assigned to live there, nor is anyone allowed to occupy it.

Because this is one of the base's hidden exits.

Naraku used an advanced Invisibility Technique, moving slowly and steadily along the cliff above. Naraku believed that Itachi, Shisui, Ruofeng together were enough to defeat Danzo, so he was in no hurry to reveal himself.
