"I understand! Leave the rest to me!"
Raising his cane and giving it a wave, Izuna Uchiha headed toward Shisui Uchiha, who was rushing over. Mingye, meanwhile, vanished from the spot and formally set his plan into motion.

With those words, Shimura Danzō retreated into the shadows and disappeared. The Root ninja, meanwhile, formed a planned ninja formation that encircled Shisui Uchiha.
