Want to Control Me?

As Danzo's arm fell, the bandages wrapped around it loosened. With a wet rip, they completely came undone.

On that arm, one Three-Tomoe Sharingan after another stared wide open, as though silently recounting the resentment of their former owners.

"Sharingan!"

"Elder Danzo actually..."

Namiashi Raidō and Iwashi Tatami, who had come with Tobirama Senju, witnessed everything with their own eyes. Their expressions were truly something to behold.

This was precisely why Tobirama Senju had brought them along. He needed a few witnesses.

"There's even Wood Release!" Could it be...

The two did not dare voice the rest of their thoughts. Danzo might have robbed the First Hokage's grave for his experiments.

Shimura Danzō grabbed his fallen arm with a grim expression, trying to flee the battlefield.

But unfortunately, Tobirama Senju would not give him that chance.

Water Release: Water Severing Wave!

The fine stream of water produced by the full-powered Water Release technique shot forth like a beam of light, crossing several hundred meters in the blink of an eye and appearing before Danzo.

At the same time, Tobirama used the Body Flicker Technique, appearing before Shimura Danzō at top speed.

Though Danzo was advanced in years, his abilities had not declined too greatly.

He twisted aside to evade the water beam. When he saw Tobirama Senju charging toward him,

a hint of joy rose from the depths of his heart.

It's fine. I still have my final trump card. I still have Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan. As long as I use Kotoamatsukami on the Second Hokage, I can completely turn the situation around. I, Danzo, can become Hokage. I can even make Konoha the strongest ninja village and rule the entire ninja world.

Yes, Danzo was preparing to activate Kotoamatsukami.

Only by controlling Tobirama Senju could he turn defeat into victory.

But he only had one chance. Kotoamatsukami's cooldown was far too long. As someone without Uchiha blood, after using it once, he would have to wait an extremely long time before he could use it again.

Therefore, he had to ensure absolute success. Otherwise, he truly would die here.

Danzo planned to feign weakness during his fight with Tobirama Senju. After letting Tobirama severely injure him, he would activate Kotoamatsukami when Tobirama least expected it.

It could be said that the plan was flawless.

The corners of Danzo's mouth even curled into a faint smile.

But he had never considered that Tobirama Senju knew he possessed a Mangekyō Sharingan...

At that moment,

Tobirama Senju had already rushed before Danzo. The water blades formed by his Water Release technique pierced into Danzo's remaining three limbs amid his pained cries.

Shimura Danzō collapsed to the ground, looking like a human stump.

But the wounds were not fatal, so he was still gasping heavily.

"Teacher, I was wrong... Please, forgive me..."

Shimura Danzō mumbled a few words indistinctly, blood spilling from his mouth as he spoke.

Tobirama Senju was nearly amused by Danzo. What terrible acting. Still, Tobirama played along, because he did not want this precious Mangekyō Sharingan to be damaged.

"Danzo, I cannot forgive the sins you have committed. As your teacher, my final act of mercy will be to send you on your way myself."

Though he continued speaking, Tobirama's movements did not stop.

He threw a punch at Shimura Danzō's head.

Closer!

Even closer!

The sheer force behind that punch made Danzo's scalp tingle.

Yet he revealed a sinister grin.

Hahaha, Teacher, you were wise all your life, but you never would have imagined that you'd be controlled by the Sharingan of the Uchiha you hated most!

Shimura Danzō thought inwardly, then controlled his chakra to flow toward his left eye.

Tobirama Senju's fist came down.

However,

just as it was about to land, the fist stopped. In Shimura Danzō's incredulous gaze, it changed from a fist into a claw and reached for Danzo's eye socket.

"Aah!"

Amid Danzo's agonized scream,

Tobirama Senju's fingers viciously dug into Danzo's bandage-wrapped right eye.

Then Tobirama pulled back, gouging Danzo's right eye out alive.

"No!"
