Arc 9Konoha’s Judgment
The Divine Kingdom crushed Konoha’s resistance, while Gen'yō exposed the crimes of its leaders before the world. Danzō’s final attempt to turn the battle with counterfeit Sharingan ended with him invoking Izanagi against Gen'yō and the Uchiha children.
- Tsunade offered Gen'yō the Senju assets to spare the Konoha Casino, and Itachi led the Uchiha fleet to destroy thirty-seven Root bases and bring the daimyo to the Moon Palace as a prisoner.
- Orochimaru and Danzō revived Hashirama, Tobirama, Minato, Fugaku, and Shisui, but Itachi’s fleet overwhelmed their forces until Gen'yō broke the Six Red Yang Formation and stopped Danzō’s suicide seal.
- Orochimaru offered his loyalty to Gen'yō, while Itachi led the Uchiha children through Konoha with Danzō and Orochimaru in tow, and Hiashi killed Hizashi and pledged the Hyuga Clan’s loyalty as Root attacked the procession.
- The Uchiha children defeated Root and confronted Hiruzen at Hokage Rock, where Hiruzen wounded Shō before Itachi accused him of betraying the Uchiha and challenged him to answer for their deaths.
- Gen'yō brought Danzō before Hiruzen, Homura, and Koharu and exposed evidence of Konoha High Command’s wartime treachery, corruption, and human experimentation, prompting worldwide outrage.
- Danzō revealed Sharingan implanted in his body and unleashed a crude mental assault on the Uchiha, but Itachi identified its weakness and Gen'yō remained unaffected.
- Gen'yō revealed that nine of Danzō’s ten Sharingan were counterfeit clones created by Orochimaru, and Danzō activated Izanagi with the eyes and threatened Gen'yō and the others.
