In the pitch-black night sky, the silvery-white full moon shone through the purple Chakra barrier, making the space somewhat dim.
Fortunately, everyone had good eyesight; this level of light was sufficient for the battle.
Sasuke, unable to wait any longer, pushed off with his feet and charged towards Danzo like an arrow. Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly blocked Sasuke's path.
" Lord Third, your opponent is me." Kakashi raised a ball of brilliant lightning in his right hand, illuminating the surrounding scenery in white.
Lightning Blade!
The surging Lightning Release Chakra propelled Kakashi's body straight towards the Third Hokage.
Sasuke turned around, bypassing Hiruzen Sarutobi, and continued towards Danzo.
Might Duy a flying kick, blocking Sasuke's path.
" Might Duy-senpai, your opponent is me. I want to see how your Eight Gates Released Formation Eight Gates Released Formation differs from Might Guy-senpai's."
Shinsei launched a flying kick, blocking Might Duy's flying kick.
Do you know Might Guy?
"Yes, I know Might Guy-senpai. I also know the Eight Gates Released Formation; it was Might Guy-senpai who taught me."
"Oh, ho ho!" Might Duy shouted excitedly, " Might Guy actually took on an apprentice?"
"Yes, Might Guy-senpai took on a disciple. But it's not me, it's Rock Lee. They run laps around Konoha every day, and they wear the same kind of bodysuits as you."
"That's amazing! That's fantastic!" Might Duy excitedly. " Might Guy has finally lived up to his potential! Kid, I'm going to kick your shoulder!"
" Might Duy-senpai, no need to remind me. I can avoid it. Did you see the Sharingan in my eyes?"
"I see. That puts my mind at ease!" Might Duy dodged Shinsei's powerful kick, and then asked, "Is Might Guy married?"
"Ah... well, not yet!"
"Oh my! This young man isn't married yet. How old is he?"
"Hmm, let me do the math. Might Guy-senpai should be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight, right? ( The Hokage timeline is a bit messy, so let's say Might Guy is 28 here.)"
"Oh, wow! Might Guy's all grown up already? Little one, you have to tell Might Guy for me to get married soon!"
Sigh, Shinsei naturally intended to relay Might Duy's message, but whether it would be effective was another matter.
As it stands, Might Guy doesn't seem very interested in women; his gaze is always fixed on Kakashi.
"No problem, Duy-senpai. I'll pass on the message for you." Shinsei chatted with Might Duy while dodging his attacks.
"Little friend! I'm going to use the Evening Elephant!"
"No problem, Duy-senpai."
A powerful air cannon erupted from Might Duy's fist, the force of which distorted the surrounding air.
Shinsei was unwilling to take this powerful attack head-on, even if it was a scaled-down version of the Eight Gates Released Formation. He Hand Seals with one hand and instantly disappeared from his spot.
"Well done! It was the Second's Flying Thunder God!" Might Duy looked pleased after Shinsei disappeared, genuinely happy for the genius emerging from Konoha.
The surging force swept away all the large trees in the forest, creating a passage several tens of meters long!
"Oh dear! I'm going to use the Evening Elephant again, little friend, can you stop me?"
Might Duy's furious fist was aimed directly at Kakashi, who was fighting the Third Hokage.
"No problem, Duy-senpai."
Shinsei reappeared beside Might Duy and used his hand to lift Might Duy's arm up.
The violent energy ripped off Shinsei's clothes, revealing his well-defined abs.
Kakashi withdrew his gaze from Might Duy's fist and continued to confront the Third Hokage.
The fight between the two was spectacular, yet both were holding back their full strength.
He understood the state of Impure World Reincarnation ninja and knew that the Third Hokage was acting against his will. However, sealing away this former Hokage on his own was not so simple.
The two of them paddled in perfect unison.
Meanwhile, Sasuke and Naruto each found their own opponents.
Naruto patted his stomach and shouted, " Nine-Tails, lend me your Chakra!"
Perhaps Naruto's relationship with Nine-Tails improved during this time, for as soon as he finished speaking, a golden Chakra tail cloak surged around him.
Nine-Tails Chakra Mode!
The powerful Chakra not only enhanced Naruto's speed and strength, but also formed nine thick tails behind him.
Each tail danced wildly, transforming into enormous claws that reached out to grab Shisui Uchiha on the other side.
Shisui Uchiha exerted force with his feet, his body turning into a blur.
Body Flicker Technique!
Compared to Kotoamatsukami Might Duy, Shisui Uchiha, who was hit by Kotoamatsukami, was undoubtedly much more proactive in the fight.
His body transformed into countless afterimages, surrounding Naruto. Meanwhile, the nine Chakra claws behind Naruto relentlessly clawed at Shisui's body.
However, it wasn't so easy for Naruto to capture Shisui Uchiha, who possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Golden claws dug huge, deep pits into the ground. Countless stones and dirt flew up, creating huge clouds of dust.
Sasuke conjured a blue Chakra sword in each hand and swung it repeatedly at Danzo.
Danzo was not in the state of Impure World Reincarnation. His old body was not as strong as it had been in his youth, and he dared not Sasuke in Taijutsu. He could only use the surrounding trees to dodge and occasionally form hand Hand Seals and spit out sharp wind balls.
Finally, Danzo removed all the gauze from his hands, revealing a pale arm covered with countless Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
"You! Deserve! To! Die!" Upon seeing the Sharingan on Danzo's arm, Sasuke instantly flew into a rage, and the Cursed Seal on his neck rapidly expanded, forming lightning-like runes all over his body.
" Cursed Seal Activated!" Powerful Cursed Seal Chakra filled Sasuke's entire body, blowing his clothes and hair wildly.
With his speed greatly enhanced, Sasuke vanished from his spot with a light step, wielding his Chakra sword and slashing down at Danzo.
With a "bang," Danzo exploded into a cloud of smoke.
"That's Shadow Clone!" Sasuke's Sharingan scanned the surroundings, searching for Danzo's figure. The next moment, he saw a corner of clothing peeking out from behind a large tree. The Chakra sword in his hand quickly extended, slicing the tree in two.
"No blood! It's just Shadow Clone!"
Another Danzo appeared behind a large tree, his hands Hand Seals before he swiftly unleashed a series of white whirlwind balls.
" Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere!"
Sasuke's Sharingan quickly pinpointed the direction from which the Wind Release Chakra was coming. He calmly charged through the dense Wind Release chakra.
"Die!" Sasuke shouted, and a Chakra sword sliced Danzo's body and the ground beneath his feet in two.
This time it wasn't Shadow Clone; Sasuke could see the exploding blood mist. However, Danzo, vanished like Utakata.
Sasuke inherited the Uchiha Clan's legacy, so he naturally recognized Danzo's state of mind.
That's a forbidden technique belonging to the Uchiha Clan, activated using the Sharingan — Izanagi!
