Without exchanging a single word.
Just a few glances.
Sasuke immediately understood Naruto's intentions, coordinating with him with the utmost tacit understanding. It was also the easiest way to do things, and the best way to limit Danzō's trump cards.
"Y-You really... cough, cough... underestimated you... But! Don't you dare underestimate me!"
As Naruto spoke,
a trace of regret and sudden realization surfaced in Danzō's eyes.
As blood continued to spill from the corner of his mouth,
it seemed that, in his final moments, he was trying to unleash one last burst of power. His face twisted into a hideous grimace.
"Here! Go to hell with me!"
He had worried about the distance before.

And unleash the jutsu.
However,
his chakra didn't react at all.
He could feel his strength rapidly draining away.

Naruto's words were a devil's whisper.
Danzō's eyes suddenly contracted.
The blade went in, then came out.
"Swish!"
He clearly felt his strength draining away.
