It's better to be a rebel ninja than to be a Hokage

"Hey, hey, hey! This is different from what we agreed at the beginning. Shouldn't we secretly look for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Shimura Danzo!?"

While Sasuke was fighting with the "Root" ninjas who were protecting Danzo, Hozuki Hozuki, who had also infiltrated the "Root" organization headquarters, lowered her voice and complained to Karin, who was also hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity.

"Why did he suddenly rush out alone without even discussing it with us!!!"

The tremendous pressure brought about by the unplanned changes was directly reflected in the appearance of Suigetsu Kizuki, causing Suigetsu Kizuki's hair to begin to become soft and limp, as if it could turn into a puddle of water at any time.

This is not a ninja game. They are invading Konoha and the enemy has been famous for decades. Shouldn't they be cautious with every step?

"Can you calm down a bit!"

Karin also scolded Hozuki Hozuki in a low voice. She was watching Sasuke's battle carefully, hoping to analyze some useful information from it, so she was very disgusted with Hozuki Hozuki's endless complaints in her ear.

Karin looked at Danzo who did not participate in the battle, and was filled with doubts.

What exactly is the unevenly distributed chakra on Danzo Shimura's body?

Karin wanted to continue to sense it more deeply, but she found that she could no longer spy on the strange chakra on Danzo Shimura.

Is this method of blocking perception and detection a sealing technique?

"I've discovered something!" At this moment, Suigetsu Hozuki, who had been silent for a few seconds, suddenly exclaimed in a low voice in Karin's ear.

"what have you found?"

Karin turned her head and looked at Suigetsu Kizuki.

"That drawing ninja, don't you think he looks a lot like Sasuke?"

"..."

That’s enough. Karin was speechless for a while.

She was speechless about Hozuki's erratic personality. Hozuki, who was just frightened by Sasuke's unauthorized actions, was now paying attention to such useless and trivial matters.

For a moment just now, Karin really thought that something serious could come out of his mouth.

However, Karin was still curious and took a quick glance at the black-haired boy who was drawing a rare beast fighting Sasuke with ink.

"Not at all?"

Perhaps because Karin is good at identifying chakra, she also pays attention to people's chakra while observing their appearance.

It was because of this habit that Karin was able to immediately see through Naruto's disguise when he rescued her in Kizuna Castle.

"Even if you and Jirobo put on an expressionless face at the same moment, you probably don't want to hear people say that you look like Jirobo, right?"

"Why are you suddenly bringing up the topic of me? How are I similar to that fat guy?!"

Hozuki clicked his lips, obviously displeased by Karin's comparison of him to Jirobo.

He looked at Karin and said unhappily, "Why are you observing such useless things? Go and collect useful information quickly! Sasuke and I are the only combat-type ninjas. Don't slack off in collecting information just because you don't have to take action! This is your responsibility!!"

"?"

Karin, who was being blamed, looked at Hozuki Hozuki in disbelief.

……

Let’s not talk about the strange situation that Karin and Hozuki can quarrel anywhere.

Sai, the man who the two people said was "very similar" to Sasuke, was not in a good situation facing Sasuke.

Sai originally thought that he could delay Sasuke effectively, but after the actual battle, he realized that his idea was too naive and he was no match for Uchiha Sasuke at all!

The strategy must be changed - Sai waved the brush in his hand, ready to use the super beast fake painting again to draw a new beast.

However, the brain clearly gave orders to the limbs, but the black ink did not embellish the blank canvas at all.

Instead, a large amount of bright red blood splattered onto the canvas uncontrollably, making the canvas filthy.

Everything happened so fast!

The hand Sai usually used for painting was cut off cleanly from the shoulder by Sasuke's Kusanagi sword without even Sai knowing it!

The gap in strength between the two of them is too big!

With just one strike, Sai was defeated in the battle with Sasuke.

"The dog should stay out of the way."

From beginning to end, Sasuke never took Sai seriously.

In Sasuke's view, Sai is just a dog who obeys Danzo's orders. His master is insidious and cruel, and as his minion, Sai is naturally a vicious dog who helps the tiger.

The only fate of a vicious dog is death.

What Sasuke did was just to make Sai, the "evil dog" that was blocking his way, disappear from his sight.

Sasuke looked at Shimura Danzo who was being protected by other Root ninjas.

The Root ninjas were all surprised at how easily Sasuke defeated Sai.

"Master Danzo, it's up to us to delay Uchiha Sasuke from now on!"

Although Sai is still very young, he is undoubtedly a subordinate that Danzo values ​​and is worthy of investment.

The ninjas who were protecting Danzo's "root" thought that Sai could delay enough time, but they didn't expect the result to be so unexpected!

Even from the time Sai took the initiative to attack Sasuke to the time Sasuke ended the fight, it only took Sasuke a few seconds to deal with Sai.

"Leave it to you."

In response to his subordinates' request to go into battle, Danzo nodded in agreement.

He calmly untied the heavy shackles that were sealed on his right hand.

After receiving Danzo's order, the "Root" ninjas who were originally surrounding Danzo swarmed towards Sasuke.

These are the "Roots", ruthless tools trained by Danzo to obey him absolutely.

Even if their companions were killed right in front of them, they didn't care.

In the face of Danzo's interests, their own lives became insignificant.

In order to ensure that there would be no accidents in this battle with Uchiha Sasuke, Danzo no longer set up defenses around him, leaving a huge gap around him with no one to protect him.

This is an opportunity!

Sasuke stared at Danzo and prepared to attack him directly.

"Uchiha Sasuke, we won't let you have your wish!"

The ninjas who were originally protecting Danzo's "Root" surrounded Sasuke the next moment.

Sasuke temporarily withdrew his gaze from Danzo and focused his eyes in front of him, using the terrifying insight of his Mangekyō Sharingan to take in all the movements of the enemies surrounding him.

"The power of Uchiha Sasuke's Mangekyō Sharingan is unknown. Don't get into a tug-of-war with this guy. Let him use the power of Mangekyō Sharingan to defeat the enemy with one blow!"

The ninjas of "Root" keenly noticed Sasuke's behavior of concentrating his eye power.

They coordinated and used their best ninjutsu to attack Sasuke.

However, before the attack could reach Sasuke, a giant snake appeared out of nowhere!

The giant snake curled up its body, forming a spiral circle, hiding Sasuke inside.

He used his body as a shield to block the attack for Sasuke!

"This is... Ten Thousand Snakes!"

Danzo, who was watching the fight, was the first to realize what Sasuke had done.

Sasuke used the summoning technique to summon a huge purple snake!

This big snake has dragon-like horns on its head. Perhaps in the near future it will be able to transform from a snake into a dragon.

Ten thousand snakes!

This is Orochimaru's summoning beast. It is as famous as Gamabunta, who was contracted by Jiraiya, and the living slug who was contracted by Tsunade. It is also one of the symbols of the "Three Ninjas".

But even Orochimaru couldn't completely control the Manabu, and wouldn't summon it unless it was absolutely necessary, but now he was so willing to protect Sasuke...

Danzo looked at Mangeki's snake pupils. The power of the Mangekyō Sharingan had already invaded Mangeki's spirit. As a concrete manifestation of Sasuke's own will being erased and being controlled by the Sharingan, Mangeki's snake pupils reflected the Sharingan's eye patterns.

"It is indeed the Sharingan."

Uchiha's eye power can even control the tailed beast, let alone a summoned beast that looks like a dragon and a snake?

While Danzo was sighing, the Ten Thousand Snakes, whose will was controlled by Sasuke, were rapidly wriggling their bodies, breaking up the ninja encirclement that surrounded Sasuke.

As the huge body of Mang Snake that blocked Sasuke retreated, Sasuke, who was supposed to be protected by Mang Snake, had disappeared in the newly exposed space.

The brief visual difference created by Sasuke using the body of a snake disappeared!

"You are Itachi's brother, but compared to Itachi, your personality is too impatient."

Danzo raised his right hand in front of him in a blocking gesture. The thick iron shackles in his arms that restrained his chakra blocked the Kusanagi sword in Sasuke's hand that was about to hit him when he appeared in front of him using the instant body movement technique.

If it was Uchiha Itachi, he would never be swayed by personal emotions and would appear directly in front of the enemy without confirming the enemy's ninjutsu information.

Danzo squinted his left eye and admired the Mangekyō Sharingan with the hexagram pattern in Uchiha Sasuke's eye.

He has collected many three-magatama Sharingans, but only a few Mangekyō Sharingans.

One day in the future, when Uchiha Shisui's right eye becomes completely blind due to overuse, Uchiha Sasuke's new Mangekyō Sharingan will be transplanted into his own eyes as a replacement.

"I'll take your Sharingan."

The timing was just right, the seal on Danzo's right hand was finally completely lifted, and now he could finally fight with all his strength.

The heavy shackles that served as a sealing tool and bound Danzo's right hand also loosened and fell off as the seal was lifted.

Sasuke immediately seized the opportunity and pressed the Kusanagi sword towards Danzo again.

But Danzo no longer defended himself. He suddenly raised his left hand, and the kunai hidden in his long sleeves slipped into the palm of his left hand and was tightly grasped by Danzo, who stabbed it into the vital parts of Sasuke's body at an extremely fast speed!

Fight for your life!

Danzo took advantage of Sasuke's impatient attack style, and used this lose-lose method to force Sasuke to give up defense and choose to attack desperately in order to kill him, just like him!

The short-bladed kunai and the long-bladed Kusanagi sword.

With Sasuke's personality, he will never give up the opportunity to attack Danzo!

But the final result will definitely not be that Danzo and Sasuke will die together!

The so-called risking one's life is just a trap set by Danzo to lure Sasuke!

The absolute forbidden technique called "Izanagi" possessed by the Sharingan transplanted in Danzo's right hand will turn the reality of Danzo's death into an unreal dream.

As an enemy, Sasuke will face death.

"Boom-"

The kunai in Danzo's left hand accurately hit Sasuke's vitals, but the piercing feeling of the kunai piercing his body - it was not right!

"This is……!!!"

Danzo looked at the "Sasuke" in front of him in disbelief - "Sasuke"'s body squirmed irregularly like liquid, and finally reshaped into a young man with white hair covering his ears.

He is the prodigy from Kirigakure who followed Sasuke and Naruto, whom the Root organization had already gathered intelligence about - Hozuki Suigetsu!

The Kizuna clan possesses a secret technique called "Water Transformation Technique", which allows them to ignore physical damage by turning themselves into liquid!

Not only did Danzo's kunai fail to cause any harm to Suigetsu Hozuki, but it also caused him to be pinned down by Suigetsu Hozuki.

Hozuki Suigetsu's Kusanagi sword embedded in Danzo's right hand, which was covered with white bandages.

"Now! Sasuke!"

Hozuki shouted Sasuke's name loudly.

The one who responded to Gui Deng Shui Yue's call was Wanshe!

Ten thousand snakes moved towards Danzo at an astonishing speed like snakes.

It wrapped its body around the suspended bridge in the posture of strangling its prey - most of the bases of the "Root" organization headquarters built underground have such bridge structures.

Finally, the horned snake head of Manshe appeared behind Danzo.

It opened its huge mouth and aimed at Danzo, but it was not to devour Danzo, but to send Sasuke to Danzo's side.

When Sasuke first summoned the Ten Thousand Snakes, he had already hidden himself in its mouth!

Everything was just Sasuke's plan to lure the enemy!

"go to hell."

Blood flowed from Sasuke's left eye like tears of pain and sorrow.

The powerful eye power fell directly on Danzo's head.

The pitch-black flame that could burn everything burned Danzo's entire head without any warning.

Amaterasu!

That is the power of Sasuke's Mangekyō Sharingan.

It's proof that he and Uchiha Itachi are brothers.

It all ends here.

Or maybe, it’s just beginning.

Wind Escape——

"Sasuke! Suigetsu! Danzo is still alive!!!"

Karin, who had originally completely shielded her chakra to prevent herself from being sensed, took the initiative to expose her position at this moment, warning Sasuke and Hozuki who had relaxed after "defeating" Danzo!

——Vacuum wave!

It was like the sharp breath of the Wind Weasel transformed into a terrifying whirlwind that could be seen with the naked eye, and flew towards Sasuke and Suigetsu!

Thanks to Karin's timely reminder, Sasuke and Hozuki were able to successfully avoid the wind-style sneak attack.

Apart from Naruto, this level of wind jutsu was the first time that Sasuke had seen it.

The ninja who performed such a powerful wind escape technique was none other than Danzo Shimura, who should have been burned to death by Amaterasu.

"Hey, hey, hey! How come he's still alive and looks unharmed—did he use an illusion just now?"

Hozuki observed the appearance of the "resurrected" Danzo. Now Danzo did not show any signs of being burned by Amaterasu.

Sasuke did not answer, his eyes fixed on Danzo's hands raised as he formed a seal.

The way Danzo was making hand seals caused the long sleeves of his kimono to droop down to his elbows, revealing the Sharingan that covered his entire right arm.

It's not an illusion.

With just one glance, Sasuke denied Suigetsu Kizuki's speculation.

The bandage wrapped around Danzo Shimura's right hand was indeed cut off by Suigetsu Hozuki, who had transformed into Sasuke, using the Kusanagi sword.

Now the bandage on the right hand of the "resurrected" Danzo has also disappeared, revealing the true appearance of Danzo's right hand.

Noticing Sasuke's gaze, Danzo didn't take it seriously. He formed seals with his hands again, but there was no sign of him performing any ninjutsu.

"It seems that the plan to capture the Nine-Tailed Fox will have to be postponed for a while."

As soon as the whispering voice fell, Danzo took the lead in launching the attack this time!
