Sasori Strikes

Kakuzu witnessed this scene, his brows furrowed, and he silently approached Shizune.

His hand gripped the Kunai tightly, Chakra flowed slowly over it like a trickle, causing a faint halo to appear on the surface of the Kunai.

Just then, Orochimaru's gaze, sharp as an ice blade, was cold and piercing, shooting straight at Kakuzu.

The warning in those vertical pupils was unmistakable. "I warn you, do not interfere!"

Kakuzu hearing this, Kakuzu paused slightly, then quickly took several steps back.

However, he Kunai tightly in his hand, his Chakra not dissipating, ready to launch an attack at any moment.

At this moment, Kakuzu was caught in a fierce internal struggle.

His gaze darted back and forth between Tsunade and Orochimaru. Tsunade sat helplessly on the ground, her face contorted in pain, while Orochimaru remained expressionless, making it difficult to discern his true intentions.

Kakuzu knew perfectly well that this battle was fraught with danger, and that once he got involved, he might become bogged down and unable to escape.

But how could he just stand by and watch the situation worsen?

If something happens to Shizune, his boss will definitely be heartbroken.

At the same time, Shizune was too exhausted to fight anymore. Seeing this, Danzo's men immediately sprang into action and rushed towards Danzo without hesitation.

At that moment, Koki rushed towards Danzo, who was stunned in place. Her long sword sliced through the air, carrying a strong killing intent, and pointed straight at Danzo's heart.

However, just as the long sword was about to Danzo's heart, Koki suddenly felt as if her body was bound by countless invisible thin ropes, making her unable to move.

His chest was churning with blood and qi, and black light spread from his chest like evil vines, covering his entire body in the blink of an eye.

"To think you could trap me in Genjutsu, that's quite rare! But..."

Danzo's voice was cold and sharp, like icy rain, "Your Genjutsu is truly clumsy!"

Koki's heart sank; he had always been very confident in his Genjutsu.

Although he channeled his Yin Release Chakra into his Phantom Clone, the Genjutsu he used was actually Sharingan Dōjutsu.

In the ninja world, breaking Dōjutsu requires external interference with the flow of Chakra.

Ordinary people have pure Chakra, but Danzo special. His right arm contains mysterious power, and that heterogeneous Chakra becomes the key to breaking Genjutsu.

"Your arrogance is simply outrageous!" Danzo said coldly, a hint of contempt in his eyes.

"Do you think your teleportation Ninjutsu makes you invincible?" He slowly turned around, his gaze fixed on the crimson Three-Tomoe Sharingan in Koki's eyes, his greed growing stronger.

"From our very first encounter, I noticed your captivating eyes!"

Danzo's expression revealed an undisguised greed as he slowly said, "My right hand is impatient; it craves these eyes. This is the first time it has explicitly expressed its desire! If it weren't for the fact that you would damage these precious Sharingan, do you think you could have harmed me?"

Danzo spoke, he stretched out his terrifying right hand and reached towards Koki's eyes.

The veins on his arms bulged, and the Sharingan on his right arm seemed to flicker, as if echoing his greed.

Koki could only watch helplessly as the black Cursed Seal on her chest spread. Her heart tightened, and she immediately recognized it as the legendary Self-Exerting Curse Binding Seal.

In the past, Sasuke barely managed to break free from the seal's bindings using the second stage of Susanoo, but now he is trapped in despair.

Danzo's hand, like a demon's claw, slowly approached Koki's eyes, the chill emanating from his fingertips sending shivers down Koki.

He tried to struggle, but his body was tightly bound by the Cursed Seal, and the flow of Chakra seemed to be frozen.

Tsunade, slightly regaining consciousness from her pain, turned her gaze to Koki and, seeing her distress, became extremely anxious.

She wanted to rush to the rescue, but her heavy body felt as if it were being crushed by a boulder, and she could only helplessly pray for a miracle in her heart.

Not good!

Kakuzu gripped Kunai, his knuckles turning white from the force. Just as he was about to step forward, a figure swept past like Hayate.

Someone is faster than him?

Not far away, Sasori of the Red Sands's brown pupils suddenly widened!

Thanks to her exceptional farsightedness, even though Koki and Danzo were far apart, every detail of the battle was vividly displayed before her eyes.

Witnessing Koki in danger, Sasori felt an uncontrollable rage surge within him. He instantly forgot about concealing his identity and, in a flash, flew towards Koki like an arrow released from a bow.

Without hesitation, the scorpion's puppet tail, like a silver bolt of lightning, tore through the air, emitting a piercing shriek.

In Sasori's heart, everything about Koki was incredibly precious, and he would never allow Danzo it.

Danzo's men, who had initially relaxed slightly after Danzo subdued Koki, slowed their pace.

However, a silvery-white, ghostly shadow swept past their side.

In a panic, his eyes widened, and he cried out, "Lord Danzo! Watch out!"

Unfortunately, the puppet's tail moved with the speed of Hayate, so how could their warnings reach Danzo in time?

The puppet's tail, like a sharp spear, cut through the wind, pointing directly at Danzo.

Danzo sensed the approaching danger, and his face instantly turned pale.

This villain, indulging in wicked fantasies, smugly displays his schemes and ecstasy in front of Koki.

His lengthy speech was a prelude to his impending victory, as if Koki were already an ant he could manipulate at will.

Finally, after a long, self-indulgent sermon, Danzo slowly raised his Sharingan.

With each step forward, Danzo's ecstasy grew, as if he could already foresee his glorious future as the ruler of the Shinobi World.

As the menacing right hand drew closer, Koki's eyes blazed with fury and hatred.

These intense emotions surged within him like a turbulent wave, causing his Three-Tomoe Sharingan rapidly like a top, ultimately transforming into the mysterious and unpredictable Mangekyou Mangekyo.

The Mangekyo's patterns, like four-edged, serrated darts, radiated a breathtaking light.

In fact, the moment Koki felt that burning sensation in her chest, her mind raced, and she quickly realized the reason for her predicament.

However, he did not panic. Instead, he forced himself to calm down and began to save himself.

He first tried his best to break free from the invisible restraints, but his body seemed to be fixed in place by iron and stone, unable to move an inch.

Then, he quickly mobilized the Chakra within his body, trying to break through this hateful constraint.
