The collapsing spatial vortex formed almost instantly, giving Danzo no time to dodge. This is why Space-Time Ninjutsu is ranked among the best of all Ninjutsu.
The highest level of difficulty and requirements in learning result in the strongest effects.
Danzo's head was instantly torn apart by Kamui, and blood gushed out from his carotid artery like a blooming fountain of blood.
However, Kakashi, who had been using Kamui continuously, was also suffering. Blood kept flowing from his eye sockets, and his right eye felt as if it were being torn apart. If he hadn't received pain tolerance training in the Anbu, Kakashi would have been writhing on the spot in pain by now.
Pain in nerve endings such as toes, fingers, eyeballs, and teeth is the most difficult to improve during training in the Anbu. Just think about the pain in your toes, especially your little toe, when you kick a table corner; it's a pain that can't be ignored.
Kakashi, however, forced himself to endure the pain and watched as Danzo's 'corpse' crashed to the ground, the overflowing blood staining the ground red.
"Can this finally end...?" Kakashi thought hopefully. "With his brain destroyed, Danzo definitely can't survive. Even with a resurrection Ninjutsu, Danzo wouldn't have enough time to use it..."
However, Izanagi's power was clearly beyond Kakashi's imagination. He could turn any unfavorable situation into an advantageous one. Even if he lost his brain, or was pulverized into mincemeat, he could be resurrected perfectly.
This is the Uchiha Clan's supreme forbidden technique— Izanagi!
" Kakashi, I must say you've given me many surprises. Awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan as a non-human is already unbelievable, let alone being able to control it so freely. Very good, I'm very satisfied with your Sharingan."
Standing atop the Danzo, Danzo looked down at Kakashi with an imposing and domineering aura. At the same time, his ability to resurrect himself made Kakashi unconsciously fear Danzo.
Is it a forbidden technique left behind by the Second Hokage, a forbidden technique secretly obtained by Root from another village, or perhaps... the power of the Sharingan?
If someone had told Kakashi before that the Sharingan had other abilities, Kakashi would have scoffed. But now he had no choice but to believe it, because his Sharingan had given birth to a new ability— Kamui.
The ability to shrink space at the point where the pupil focuses, making it impossible to defend against by any means, is almost indistinguishable from resurrection.
However, judging from the condition of his right eye, he won't be able to use Kamui for a while. He won't be able to Danzo on his own. Since that's the case...
Kakashi's body suddenly relaxed, and he calmly looked up at Danzo, saying:
" Danzo, although I don't know how you managed to come back to life, such an ability must have a limit to the number of times it can be used... or there must be a price to pay. So do you think you can take on the entire Konoha?"
Seeing Kakashi's apparent surrender, Danzo was in no hurry to intervene. Exhausting too many Sharingan at once would push Hashirama Cells to the brink of chaos...
"It doesn't matter. As long as I can obtain your Sharingan, I will achieve my goal, and no one will be able to stop me!"
So, Danzo's hidden right eye is also Sharingan containing unknown power...? Kakashi's heart sank; killing Danzo completely would be even more difficult now.
Danzo leaped down from the treetop, landing with a graceful ease beyond his years, and then walked step by step toward Kakashi, exuding an aura of greed that Kakashi loathed.
" Kakashi, it seems becoming the head of the Anbu doesn't improve a ninja's abilities. You and your foolish father are just fit to be sacrifices!"
Danzo's provocation did not anger Kakashi. Anger is not a positive emotion for a ninja; it only becomes a burden. However, Kakashi, who was preparing to Hand Seals to counterattack, was shocked to find that he could not move!
Aside from being able to blink, he can't even move a single little finger!
"This is... Cursed Seal?"
"It seems the Anbu chief isn't entirely ignorant about ninja knowledge. That's right, this is the Root's Cursed Seal, the Self-Exerting Curse Binding Seal. You should be quite familiar with its effects."
Danzo said with a hint of sarcasm, as he walked up to Kakashi, who was covered in black Cursed Seal and unable to move. He bent his index finger and reached for Kakashi's right eye.
"Then, I'll accept your Sharingan."
This familiar scene is playing out again, but this time Kakashi's movements are restricted by the Cursed Seal, Danzo's long-desired Mangekyō Sharingan is within reach...
"Senior Inoichi, if you don't make a move soon, you'll only be able to collect my corpse."
"Ah, sorry, I was busy reporting to the Lord Hokage just now, but please rest assured, Lord Naoki's reinforcements will arrive soon."
"Help me resolve this immediate crisis first, or I'll haunt you even as a ghost."
"Haha, don't worry, nothing will happen to you. After all, you're my boss. Let's begin, Ninja Art: Mind Body Switch Technique!"
Danzo, trembling with excitement, suddenly stiffened, his eyes shifting. When Danzo opened his left eye again, he was no longer the real ' Danzo '.
"Senior Inoichi's Mind Body Switch Technique is truly powerful. Please help me break the Cursed Seal first."
Kakashi showed no shame in falling into the enemy's trap, and brazenly asked Inoichi Yamanaka to release the Cursed Seal seal. The next headache for them was how to completely kill Danzo.
"Senior Inoichi, you should have already seen it inside my body. Danzo died once when his heart was pierced by the Lightning Blade, and once when his brain was torn apart by Kamui, but the final result was the same. He was able to revive completely unharmed, and his Chakra seemed to have been fully restored as well."
"Ah, I saw all of that, but there's one thing we didn't notice until we entered Danzo's body that I discovered this anomaly."
Danzo raised his withered, grotesque right arm, revealing to Kakashi the densely packed, chilling Sharingan covering it.
" Kakashi, look closely and see what's different about these Sharingan."
Suppressing his feelings of disgust and rejection, Kakashi took a closer look at Danzo's right arm and the Sharingan 'embedded' in it.
"Two of his Sharingan seem to be constantly closed, Danzo suffered two fatal wounds... Could it be...?"
"Just as you guessed, if we want to completely kill Danzo, we'll probably have to kill him ten times. We've already killed him twice, so we need to kill him eight more times."
Danzo's body was revealing his own weaknesses, a scene that seemed bizarre no matter how you looked at it, but for the members of the Yamanaka Clan, it was just an everyday occurrence.
"No, we still need to kill Danzo nine more times. His right eye is also Sharingan."
Kakashi stated a more serious fact in a heavy tone, but having already killed Danzo eight times, it seemed that one more time wouldn't make a difference.
