At the same instant, a violent explosion came from the ground, as if the entire earth was about to be torn apart.

Immediately afterwards, countless cracks spread out like a spider web, a shocking sight.

Just then, hundreds of vines surged out of the earth's core like divine arrows, weaving freely through the air like agile snakes creating a seamless, enormous net.

This net is so dense that it almost covers the entire space, leaving no place to escape.

Faced with such an attack, Koki seemed to be in dire straits.

Even with his lightning-fast movements, he could find no chance of survival under the overwhelming, net-like attack of the vines.

"Pfft! Bang!" The vines pierced through the solid like spears, but when they hit their target, they found it was just an illusion, instantly turning into smoke and disappearing without a trace.

Danzo was startled and immediately realized that something was wrong, so he hurriedly turned around to look.

Sure enough, he saw a phantom appear silently behind him.

Immediately, the phantom materialized like a ghost, its long sword gleaming coldly in the dim light, like a silver moon in the night sky, and it swiftly descended.

Danzo's eyes narrowed suddenly, and a violent aura emanated from him. He knew clearly that this was a critical moment of life and death, and there was no room for hesitation.

He quickly raised his right hand, trying to block the fatal blow, while his left hand clenched into a fist, containing powerful Chakra, ready to strike Koki's heart.

"Come on, it's nothing but a fight to the death! I've already died once! I've long since disregarded life and death!" Danzo roared, his voice filled with madness and determination.

Koki moved lightly and gracefully within the illusion, her figure so ethereal and her Genjutsu so ingenious that even Orochimaru couldn't help but slightly narrow his slender eyes.

A glint of surprise and approval flashed in his narrow eyes. Judging by Orochimaru's rich combat experience and sharp insight, Koki's Phantom Clone Jutsu was almost at its peak.

In close combat, even Orochimaru himself would find it difficult to deal with such an opponent.

"Koki, you're becoming more and more likable!" Orochimaru thought to himself, a faint smile curving his lips.

"Koki, watch out!" Tsunade's warning seemed to be swallowed up by the heavy atmosphere, failing to cause any disturbance to Koki's duel with Danzo.

Their gazes were like two intertwined silver threads, and everything around them seemed to have vanished, leaving only them as mortal enemies, facing each other.

With a swift, lightning-fast swing of his longsword, Koki's gleaming blade flashed through the darkness, leaving a trail of blood as Danzo's right arm was severed.

As the severed arm fell to the ground, blood splattered everywhere, but Koki's offensive continued unabated. The long sword slashed down, aiming straight for Danzo's neck.

At the same time, Danzo's left hand slammed into Koki's chest like a landslide, with tremendous force.

The impact felt like being struck by a charging rhinoceros, sending Koki flying backward involuntarily.

However, Danzo's attack had not yet stopped when his left hand suddenly transformed into a sharp Chakra sword, piercing through Koki's body in a flash.

After suffering a fatal blow, Koki instantly shattered into countless fragments, turning into a wisp of white smoke and dissipating.

After Danzo's head fell to the ground, his body vanished instantly like a ghost.

In the blink of an eye, Danzo reappeared unharmed beside the great tree formed from the power of Wood Release.

An arrogant and disdainful look appeared on his face as he shouted at the afterimage of Koki, "All your efforts are in vain, give up!"

Koki wiped the blood from the corner of her lips, her gaze sharp as an eagle's, instantly locking onto Danzo's right arm.

On that powerful right arm, a Sharingan that once glared at the world is now closed, returning to eternal silence.

"Izanagi!" Koki's mind jolted, and his anger surged like a raging torrent.

The Uchiha Clan's world of Dōjutsu has given birth to many astonishing Ninjutsu, especially after the Mangekyō Sharingan awakens, resulting in unique and extraordinary skills.

Susanoo Tsukuyomi, Amaterasu, Kamui, and Kotoamatsukami, as well as the versatile Susanoo, all demonstrate supreme power.

However, the Uchiha Clan's Dōjutsu extend far beyond this; they also possess some forbidden techniques that are nearly impossible to counter, among which Izanami and Izanagi are considered invincible.

Izanagi, the ultimate Dōjutsu of the Uchiha Clan, can be awakened by forming the three hand seals of the Rabbit, Boar, and Sheep, thus unleashing a mysterious power that can alter reality.

The user of the Sharingan, using Izanagi, can turn unfavorable events into nothingness, leaving only the reality that is advantageous to themselves.

The activation time of this technique varies from person to person, but once it is used, the Sharingan will inevitably fall into eternal darkness, making it extremely dangerous.

Even if one dies during the attack, one can still turn the tide and achieve temporary invincibility.

When the skill is activated, the user's current state is Sharingan. Within the validity period, no matter what kind of injury is suffered, or even death is suffered, the user can physically recover to the original state (except when Chakra is exhausted, and the eye is intact).

However, those who use Izanagi are destined to lose their sight forever, and thus it is considered a forbidden technique.

In the anime, after the Uchiha Clan was wiped out, Danzo collected an entire arm's worth of Sharingan and, with the help of Hashirama Cells, mastered the power of Izanagi.

Danzo's dependence on Izanagi deepened day by day, and he even regarded it as a resurrection suit, using it at will.

In the final battle against Sasuke, Danzo wielded ten Izanagi, each time consuming one Sharingan, granting him one minute of invincible protection.

In other words, he had ten minutes of invincibility, while Sasuke had just awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan.

This was a magnificent duel between Sharingan, but in reality, it was a contest of endurance between the two.

Ultimately, after Danzo the tenth Izanagi, Danzo mistakenly believed he could once again unleash his invincible power, but he was blinded by Sasuke's Mangekyō Sharingan Genjutsu and fell to Sasuke's sword.

To defeat Obito, Konan meticulously planned the timing of Kamui's Hollowfication and prepared 600 billion Explosive Tag, the duration of which even exceeded the Hollowfication state.

Left with no other choice, Obito used Izanagi to avoid certain death, and his Izanagi lasted for a full ten minutes.

After Lord Madara was defeated by Hashirama, he was reborn through Izanagi.

"I knew it!" Koki's voice was as cold as a snow-covered land frozen for a thousand years. "Danzo, besides murdering my clansmen, you also stole the Uchiha's secret techniques!"

With the Uchiha Clan still intact, Danzo's possession of the Sharingan and his use of Izanagi undoubtedly indicate that he had already been plotting against the Uchiha Clan in secret.

Danzo hearing what Koki said, Danzo's eyes flashed with astonishment, then blazed with rage, and he roared, "Uchiha Fugaku dares to reveal the secret technique of Izanagi to the public?"

Of all the information he possessed, only the upper echelons of the Uchiha knew about this technique.

Koki gently shook his head, having no intention of engaging in a pointless argument with Danzo.

Fugaku never revealed this information to him, but coming from another world, he naturally knew these things.
