Danzo's Trump Card!

But clearly, that was an impossibility.

From the moment Danzo vanished, Yun Xi began to heighten his vigilance.

Having read the original work, Yun Xi naturally understood that Danzo must have a backup plan.

Therefore, after unleashing the Five Styles: Great Barrage Technique, Yun Xi had swapped positions with his Shadow Clone.

The Yun Xi who had previously used Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame was merely his clone!

The sneak attack Danzo had painstakingly prepared had only struck a clone.

The real Yun Xi was standing beside Karin, a faint smile on his face.

Watching "Yun Xi" vanish into thin air, the expression on Danzo's face at this moment was incredibly colorful.

He had not expected that his sneak attack would only take out one of Yun Xi's clones.

Meanwhile, the remaining Root Division ninjas wore expressions of terror.

They had never imagined that a mere brat's strength could be so formidable!

Even Danzo himself felt a hint of surprise at Yun Xi's power...

"I'm done playing; let's end this battle with this strike!"

Yun Xi seized the opportunity to launch another attack!

"Black Flame Technique!"

With Yun Xi exerting his full power, a vast expanse of black flames appeared out of thin air across the battlefield.

The area it covered was nearly identical to the Majestic Destroyer Flame Yun Xi had unleashed earlier.

Yet, the difference in power between these two ninjutsu could not be described in words.

Simply put, they were worlds apart!

"Wood Style: Violent Spear Tree!"

The moment Yun Xi released the Black Flame Technique, a sense of foreboding flashed through Danzo's mind.

Sensing that this attack of Yun Xi's was extraordinary, Danzo unleashed his trump card!

Wood Style ninjutsu!

Wood Style: Violent Spear Tree was a powerful Wood Style technique that combined offense and defense; it was not only capable of defense but also possessed astonishing offensive capabilities.

Even though Yun Xi had unleashed the inextinguishable Black Flame Technique, it only burned for a moment after striking the giant tree summoned by Danzo.

It then naturally extinguished...

"Wood Style ninjutsu, huh? Truly powerful..."

Yun Xi had lived in the Naruto World for quite some time, but this was his first time witnessing actual Wood Style ninjutsu.

Although Yun Xi knew that Danzo had transplanted the First Hokage's cells and that he could use Wood Style, he had not expected Danzo to be able to skillfully utilize such a powerful Wood Style technique at this stage.

Judging by the lingering traces of Wood Style chakra, Yun Xi estimated that the current Danzo was definitely on par with Yamato from the original series in terms of using Wood Style.

Perhaps even stronger!

"I didn't expect you to force me to use this move. It seems this old man truly underestimated you!"

Danzo had relied on Wood Style: Violent Spear Tree to withstand Yun Xi's Black Flame Technique.

However, the Root Division ninjas standing to the side were not so lucky.

They were struck directly by the Black Flame Technique and reduced to charred corpses.

Although these Root Division ninjas were not worth mentioning in Danzo's eyes, cultivating them still required resources.

At the same time, Yun Xi killing Root Division ninjas so recklessly in front of him was undoubtedly a slap in the face to Danzo!

"If it were the First Hokage using Wood Style in front of me, I would certainly turn around and flee without looking back, but you clearly aren't qualified."

Looking at Danzo standing atop the giant tree, Yun Xi also began to grow serious.

Although Danzo's Wood Style was not top-tier, it could not be underestimated.

After all, this was one of the peak Kekkei Genkai in Naruto; if Yun Xi were too careless, he might even flip the car.

Furthermore, in terms of elemental attributes, Wood Style was relatively effective at countering Yun Xi's Amaterasu and Fire Style ninjutsu.

"Heh, then take another move from me!"

"Wood Style: Root Burial!"

After hearing Yun Xi's words, a cold sneer appeared on Danzo's face.

Following that, Danzo utilized the technique to create a massive tree that surged toward Yun Xi.

"What?"

Seeing Danzo unleash this technique, a look of surprise appeared on Yun Xi's face.

Having read the original work, he naturally understood the price Danzo had to pay for using Wood Style: Root Burial.

Danzo intended to take him down together!

Having read the original work, Yun Xi naturally knew the principle behind this ninjutsu.

It was nothing more than using the giant trees summoned by Wood Style to swallow both himself and his enemy.

Under normal circumstances, once a person used this technique, regardless of whether the enemy died, the user would certainly perish.

The cost was so great that an ordinary person could not bear it!

But Danzo was an exception; once the trees swallowed both the enemy and himself, Danzo could use Izanagi to turn the damage he sustained into a dream, thereby avoiding the technique's effects.

The consequence of doing so required the sacrifice of one Sharingan.

It could be said that for others, this was a suicidal trump card.

But in Danzo's hands, as long as he had enough Sharingan, he could use this Wood Style: Root Burial as a conventional means of attack!

Realizing the danger approaching, Yun Xi stopped overthinking and shouted directly, "Karin, use the Sealing Barrier!"

"Right!"

Upon hearing Yun Xi's words, Karin released a standard Sealing Barrier at her feet with extreme speed.

Taking advantage of this time, Yun Xi grabbed Karin and Pikachu and flew into the air.

Shortly after, the trees summoned by Danzo struck the Sealing Barrier Karin had just laid down.

Something unexpected happened: the trees Danzo summoned were actually sealed directly by Karin's Sealing Barrier!

"Izanagi!"

Danzo was also exceptionally puzzled; he had not expected his finishing move to be broken by a mere Sealing Barrier.

Although Danzo was filled with curiosity, there wasn't much time left for him to use Izanagi.

He had no choice but to use Izanagi first to avoid the side effects of this Wood Style ninjutsu.

"It seems I still underestimated you, but it's a pity you ran into me!"

Watching Danzo in the midst of his resurrection, Yun Xi felt a sense of emotion.

At first, Yun Xi thought Danzo's ordinary combat power was at most at the level of an Elite Jonin.

Only when unleashing Izanagi and Kotoamatsukami could he be called a Kage-level expert.

But Yun Xi had forgotten the key information that Danzo possessed Wood Style.

With the support of the powerful Wood Style Kekkei Genkai, Yun Xi estimated that Danzo could reach Kage-level strength even without using Kotoamatsukami.

Fortunately, Yun Xi knew that Karin's Sealing Jutsu happened to be able to restrain Wood Style ninjutsu.

Because although Wood Style was difficult to destroy, it could be sealed!

Even if only a small portion was sealed, the Wood Style: Root Burial technique Danzo used would be broken by Yun Xi!

"You..."

Watching helplessly as the Sharingan he had painstakingly collected vanished because of Yun Xi, Danzo's expression turned extremely ugly; his shock was accompanied by even greater rage!

Danzo had roamed the Ninja World for many years and never imagined that one day he would be forced into such a state by a brat!

"You forced my hand..."

Looking at the chaotic scene in front of the Root Division, Danzo finally slowly unwrapped the bandages on his head.

A blood-red Sharingan was revealed in his left eye!

This Sharingan was the Mangekyo Sharingan Danzo had obtained from Uchiha Shisui.

And the ocular technique of this Mangekyo Sharingan was none other than Kotoamatsukami, known as the strongest genjutsu!

"Are you going to use this trump card?"

Seeing Danzo's actions, Yun Xi realized that the battle between him and Danzo was about to reach its conclusion!
