RoU Chapter 131: Confronting Danzo
🕑 Added 2023-12-12 18:36:40 +0000 UTC[Boom!]
A massive sword energy swept across everything in its path.
Danzo, Aburame Torune, and Yamanaka Fu panicked and tried to escape, but they were one step too slow and were injured by the impact of the energy.
"What's going on?! What is that?" Torune and Fu's faces changed drastically.
Especially Yamanaka Fu, he felt an unparalleled amount of chakra from the other side!
Danzo, on the other hand, exclaimed directly: "That is... Susanoo?"
"How is that possible! How can the Mangekyo Sharingan appear here?!" Danzo couldn't possibly not recognize the giant in front of him. As a man who deeply hated the Uchiha, he was too familiar with this powerful giant! Or perhaps, this was also the power he had longed for.
The next second...
The giant took a big step forward. The tens of meters tall giant, step by step, caused the earth to tremble slightly, as if it could not bear its weight.
In just a few steps, a fully armed giant samurai appeared in front of Danzo and the others. The giant's entire body featured a deep purple almost black color, like a black demonic god. And Danzo immediately saw that familiar figure within the body of the Susanoo giant.
"Natsuo! You actually awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan?!" Danzo's expression changed drastically.
"Well, long time no see, Elder Danzo." Natsuo's mouth curled up, his voice carrying a hint of coldness. "I originally wanted to greet you in a different way, but after hearing your words from afar, I thought this way of chatting with you would be more appropriate."
"By the way, Elder Danzo." As Natsuo spoke, the giant Susanoo's body tilted slightly, instantly blocking the sunlight.
"What did you say you wanted to do with my children?" Danzo and the other two were shocked, their faces filled with disbelief.
The enormous figure and the fresh sword mark left by the slash put immense pressure on them.
But Danzo quickly calmed down, then opened his seemingly half-closed eye and stared at Natsuo.
"Susanoo.... Mangekyo Sharingan.... Uchiha Natsuo, you've hidden it very well!"
"You're the one who destroyed my laboratory, right?"
The attack on the Root laboratory had caused an excessive reaction from Konoha, ultimately leading to the Fourth Shinobi World War... And the mastermind behind all of this, despite the investigations by the Anbu and Root, remained elusive.
Danzo had also suspected the shinobi within the village, but whoever it was seemed to lack the ability to attack the Root laboratory, take away a large amount of scientific equipment and research materials, and leave without a trace...
The Uchiha had always been the least suspected, as at that time, Uchiha Natsuo was known as the shame of the Jonin, with his strength considered to be at the level of a Chunin, making him the weakest Jonin.
But now...
"It's you, Natsuo!" Danzo angrily exclaimed.
"Not just that attack on the Root Lab." Natsuo said calmly, with a hint of mockery in his eyes. "Do you remember when you were bombed in the Shimura clan?"
"Was that also you?" Danzo widened his eyes, that was still an unsolved mystery!
It's just that the scope of the impact was smaller. And upon closer inspection... It seems that right before I was attacked, there was an assassination attempt against Natsuo!
"Well, I didn't expect you to have already acted against me... You really are an evil Uchiha!" Danzo narrowed his eye, a hint of killing intent flashing. "I should have strangled you long ago!"
"Like how you incited Uchiha Itachi to annihilate my Uchiha clan?" Natsuo retorted.
Danzo remained calm. "So you know about that too... Well, with your abilities, it's normal to discover some things."
The reason why the Third Hokage immediately dismissed Danzo after the Uchiha clan massacre was mainly because, although the Root and Uchiha Itachi had both worked to eliminate any traces, time was so tight that any action they took would be noticed by the shinobi.
Ninjas don't need to have evidence to act, they just need to find suspicion, motive and reason... and that's enough to convict someone!
"Unfortunately, Hiruzen never wanted to listen to my advice and get rid of you from the beginning." Danzo said, with a face full of regret.
If it weren't for the Third Hokage's words: 'Danzo, I am the Hokage'. Rejecting his suggestion to directly send ninja to kill Natsuo... How could he let the Root suffer such a great loss?
Natsuo just smiled.
At first, he was not as powerful as Danzo had imagined. Returning to Konoha was actually a gamble, betting that the Third Hokage wouldn't dare lay a hand on him nor allow Danzo to do so. But he won the bet and even won the entire Uchiha clan's inheritance, which allowed him to gain such power in just a few years...
"Elder Danzo, rest assured." Natsuo's voice turned cold. "I will send you to accompany the Third Hokage, just as I sent him back then, but... You still have to stay alive for a while..."
"It was you who killed the Third Hokage?!" Danzo's expression drastically changed.
Fu and Torune's expressions also changed greatly.
"No wonder, no wonder I felt that Rasa shouldn't be able to achieve this level... Even if Hiruzen is weak and old, he wouldn't be unable to inflict any injuries on Gaara." Danzo muttered slightly, his eyes filled with complexity. "So, it was you who did it..."
Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen had a strange bond with Danzo, almost like Sasuke and Naruto. Although Danzo would always complain about how weak Hiruzen was, upon hearing the news of Hiruzen's death, he trembled and had a complicated expression on his face.
Hiruzen was also quite mysterious. Despite often being at odds with Danzo, whenever others wanted to propose removing Danzo from his position, Hiruzen would always be the first to stand up and oppose it.
This was probably the unique relationship between the two of them.
"Then, let me avenge Hiruzen!" Danzo took a deep breath and opened his clothes, revealing an arm firmly trapped by metal.
"Fu, Torune, protect me." His right arm has been transplanted with a large number of Sharingan and Senju Hashirama's cells.
Whether it is the Sharingan or Hashirama's cells, they are both highly unstable and consume a great amount of energy. If they were constantly activated, Danzo would have been exhausted to death long ago, so they were sealed away. In a real battle, he needs his subordinates to open the seal for him to unleash his full power.
Fu and Torune also understand this, so they didn't hesitate to say: "Yes, Danzo-sama!"
The next second...
Both of them attacked together.
Aburame Torune took off his gloves, revealing his purple-black palm, the color of nano poison insects! It is a secret technique of the Aburame clan, an ability that only Aburame Torune can master. Once it touches you, even if you are at Kage-level, death is inevitable.
[Bang!]
He fiercely punched towards Natsuo. But Natsuo just glanced at him indifferently, and the next second, Susanoo kicked him.
However, after all, he is an expert at the Elite Jonin level and although he was already injured by Natsuo's previous attack. Torune desperately grabbed Susanoo's foot as blood began to flow from his mouth and nose, he probably won't survive after the battle.
The part of his palm that made contact with Susanoo suddenly started to change color. The originally deep purple Susanoo Chakra slowly turned black and gradually crumbled away.
The insects of the Aburame clan have the ability to devour Chakra, so even a Susanoo constructed purely with Chakra can be eaten away by their venomous bites!
However, Natsuo just glanced at it and didn't pay any more attention to this matter.
After all...
"Fu, it's difficult for my venomous insects to devour a Chakra mass of this size... " Torune's mouth twitched, and he said, "I'm really not suited for fighting against enemies like this."
It takes a certain amount of time for the small nano-sized venomous insects to erode an arm. Although the insects of the Aburame clan have the ability to devour Chakra, it is really too difficult for them to devour a giant Susanoo that is tens of meters tall.
As Torune held on to the Susanoo, Yamanaka Fu took the opportunity to quickly move behind the Susanoo.
"Mind Body Switch Technique!"
Yamanaka Fu sent his consciousness through the technique but when he was about to enter Natsuo's mind, he saw two deep red eyes.
[Pfft!]
Yamanaka Fu spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed weakly.
"What's wrong, Fu?" Torune, who took advantage of Natsuo's pause due to Fu's technique, to get away from the Susanoo had a slight change in his expression. He used his protective suit to support Yamanaka Fu and asked: "This guy..."
Yamanaka Fu, while spitting out blood, looked at Natsuo with a terrified expression and said: “As soon as my consciousness attempted to enter his mind, I was directly suppressed by his formidable mental power… How can he have such terrifying mental power?!"
