BOOM!
As the fires of life— the golden flames of Oshimimi, the eternal black flames of Amaterasu, and the white flames of Senjutsu— collided with the red river of death, a resounding explosion echoed, and cracks marred the ground under the immense pressure. Simultaneously, the surroundings swiftly succumbed to a dense mist.
Taking a momentary breather, Danzō drew a deep breath and unleashed another barrage of attacks, employing all his Kekkei Genkai. The three Homusubi, undeterred, skillfully countered each of Danzō’s assaults.
The intense confrontation on the island persisted, with the island teetering on the brink of collapse after each collision. Yet, neither Tsukihi nor Danzō showed any sign of retreat. In their determination, only one of them would emerge from this battle alive, and the other would meet their demise. Even if the island were to crumble, they were resolute in not yielding.
Crack Crack!
Crack Crack!
Whoosh!
With a sharp whistling sound, Homusubi charged toward Danzō, wielding a sword enveloped in golden flames in both hands. She executed a swift two-sword-style slash at him.
With a sharp whistling sound, Homusubi charged toward Danzō, wielding a sword covered with golden flames in both of her hands. She slashed at him using the two-sword style.
“Your Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan is going to be mine!” Danzō shouted with a ferocious expression. Despite being aware of the threat posed by the golden flames, his intense desire to obtain Homusubi’s Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan compelled him to confront her attack head-on.
Certainly, Danzō didn’t neglect his defense. He utilized the Crystal Release Kekkei Genkai to envelop his body in a very thin but sturdy crystal armor, defending against Homusubi’s assault. He knew that, even with this defense, he wouldn’t emerge unscathed in the face of his overwhelming desire, yet he pressed forward.
Clang!
A shrill sound echoed in the surroundings as Danzō used his forearms to defend against Homusubi’s swords. However, that wasn’t the end of Homusubi’s attack. Even though Danzō had managed to defend against her swords using crystal armor, the Golden Flames of Oshihimimi awaited their turn.
As the golden flames began to envelop his body, the crystal armor on Danzō’s body started to melt and adhere to his skin. Danzō agonized in pain, gritting his teeth, yet he coldly stared at Homusubi. A ruthless expression appeared in his eyes. Instead of distancing himself from Homusubi and attempting to extinguish the flames, he took a step forward and started to absorb the flames into his body using Dark Release. With determination, he declared, “No one can stop me now!”
“Tch, he’s using Dark Release to not only absorb the Golden Flames of Oshihimimi but also drain my chakra!” Homusubi clicked her tongue in annoyance as she sensed her chakra reserves depleting rapidly, while Danzō’s chakra reserves grew exponentially.
While attempting to put some distance between herself and Danzō, suddenly, her Homusubi mask—already quite damaged—fell off, revealing the face hidden underneath to Danzō.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar face before him, Danzō was taken aback and exclaimed, “So it’s you… I wasn’t entirely wrong when I suspected the truth of your death!” He added, “You are younger than I expected.”
In fact, Danzō had long sensed that the female Homusubi was quite young. Based on the depth of knowledge she displayed, Danzō assumed her to be in her mid-thirties or perhaps forties. However, now that he saw her appearance, he was surprised to find that she was a young girl in her late teens.
Observing Danzō’s reaction, Homusubi asked with a giggle, “You think?” and then added, “Are you surprised?”
Danzō shook his head. “Well, not entirely… but for a girl so young, you sure do possess unusual strength… Uchiha Tsukihi!”
Tsukihi smirked. “Is that what you think?” She brought the very same golden flames into the palm of her hand and continued, “Well, I suppose it doesn’t really matter what you think about me at this stage. I am going to kill you either way.”
Despite the increasing number of burns on his body, Danzō resisted the pain and accelerated the absorption speed of the golden flames. Within a few seconds, all the flames disappeared from the battlefield. After that, Danzō took another step forward and declared, “I have the same thought. Even if I am surprised, it’s irrelevant at this stage as you are going to die soon, and your Visual Prowess will become mine!”
The next moment, a burst of chakra gathered in Danzō’s left eye. ‘Takeminakata!’
As soon as the Dojutsu was used, Tsukihi suddenly felt a sense of loss. “The visual prowess of my eyes…!”
Her vision started to go blurry, and she couldn’t see anything. In fact, Tsukihi even felt the Visual Prowess of her Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan disappearing rapidly, causing her to panic.
On the other hand, Danzō laughed wildly. “Hahahaha… What’s the matter, Uchiha girl? What happened? Did you suddenly start to lose Visual Prowess? Hehe… This is the result of my unique Dojutsu, Takeminakata. With this, I can absorb anything I want from my enemies! And now that I am absorbing your visual prowess, it will become mine!”
“Damn! I didn’t expect that Danzō would still have such an ace up his sleeve!” To think that one of the two Dojutsu that Danzō awakened in his Mangekyō Sharingan allows him to absorb chakra and Visual Prowess from others—this is simply beyond Tsukihi’s expectations. The only silver lining at this moment is that when Danzō used ‘Takeminakata,’ ‘Sanzu-no-Kawa’ had disappeared, meaning he doesn’t seem to be able to use both his Dojutsu at the same time.
As the Red River of Death disappeared, both Shisui and Itachi, who were still fighting against it, were immediately freed. They rushed towards Danzō, attempting to save Tsukihi from his grasp.
“Tsukihi-san!”
“Tsukihi!”
Seeing Shisui and the other Homusubi coming toward him, Danzō cracked a smile. “No one can stop me from becoming the god of this Shinobi World!” He let out a peal of unbridled laughter as countless trees surged out of the ground, entangling Shisui and Itachi, and restricting their movements.
“Damn… not only Susano’o, but even Wood Release is so strong!” Shisui was taken aback. Having implanted Hashirama cells in his body, he understood Wood Release to some extent. That’s why he could easily say that the scale of Wood Release that Danzō displayed was beyond his imagination!
Itachi, on the other hand, didn’t have much time to ponder over these issues. He promptly used Amaterasu to burn down the trees. Simultaneously, he sought to create an opportunity to seal Danzō inside the Totsuka Sword in order to save Tsukihi. Itachi was aware that Tsukihi’s intention was to kill Danzō rather than sealing him, but in this critical moment, he couldn’t afford to consider all the nuances. Seeing Tsukihi’s life in jeopardy and Shisui occupied with dealing with the attacking trees and roots, Itachi had to take action to save her life, even if it meant going against her order not to seal Danzō.
Danzō seemed to have perceived the male Homusubi’s intention as he lifted his free hand in his direction and waved it. Immediately, countless wooden vines appeared out of the ground and rushed toward him. This time, the number was a hundred times greater than what Itachi was dealing with, overwhelming him instantly.
While Shisui and Itachi were held off by the countless tree vines, Homusubi fared no better. Danzō held her by the neck and continued to absorb her visual prowess and chakra. He shouted, “It’s mine… it’s all mine… I will be the true god of the Shinobi World!”
Despite being strangled by the neck and having her chakra, as well as Visual Prowess, constantly drained from her, Tsukihi wasn’t panicked. Instead, she showed a fascinating smile and said, “So it seems that my guess is correct… you really can’t use anything except Wood Release while in this state, huh?”
Tsukihi’s words stunned Danzō.
