Now, more than martial arts, Danzo wants to steal Uchiha Shisui's eyes and then use Kotoamatsukami to control Yi Shuihan. Once he controls Yi Shuihan, he will have Yi Shuihan's strength and influence. Then he can step forward, become Hokage, lead Konoha to wage war, defeat the other four great nations, and unify the world.

"Do you think that if the Uchiha clan obtains even greater power, they might have some inappropriate thoughts?" Danzo said casually, and his words startled Uchiha Shisui, causing him to momentarily lose his composure.

It's now.

Danzo was also a battle-hardened ninja with the strength of a Kage-level expert. He was prepared and made his move the moment Uchiha Shisui lost his focus.

With his right hand poking at Shisui's eyes, he aimed straight for them.

Danzo's attack was completed in the blink of an eye, or even less.

Shisui's Body Flicker Technique was no less powerful than Danzo's; he could even defeat Danzo with his Sharingan. Normally, Danzo would never have been able to successfully ambush him, but this time, Shisui was caught off guard and his mind was disturbed.

With a combination of intentional and unintentional actions, and under various circumstances, Shisui's right eye was gouged out by Danzo.

While under attack, Uchiha Shisui launched a counterattack, but this counterattack, which should have at least seriously injured Danzo, failed.

"Why do this?"

He covered his right eye and watched in agony as Danzo stored it away.

"My eyes need a new replacement."

Danzo finally removed the gauze that had been covering him for years, revealing a completely blind eye, or rather, a Sharingan that had just gone blind.

Since he was going to return the eyes anyway, during Uchiha Shisui's counterattack, he simply used the Sharingan to unleash the forbidden eye technique Izanagi.

Izanagi is the ultimate illusion technique activated at the cost of permanent blindness in one eye. It can instantly transform all unfavorable factors, including death, into a dream for the caster, and can also transform all favorable factors into reality for the attacker. It is the ultimate illusion technique that allows the caster to freely control the boundary between reality and dreams and cast it on themselves.

Once Izanagi is activated, it's equivalent to having short-term invincibility, which is quite powerful. Even if you are reduced to ashes, you can be resurrected.

That is why Danzo is now unharmed.

"Leave the rest of the eyes to me; I promise I'll make the most of them."

As Danzo spoke, a group of Root members wearing masks appeared around him without him noticing.

Uchiha Shisui naturally wouldn't surrender easily. His left eye surged with power as he glared at Danzo.

"Amaterasu."

The black flames, said to be able to burn everything, ignited instantly at his line of sight.

The black flames that should have appeared on Danzo instead appeared on a member of Root. Danzo, who was prepared, could not possibly have been unprepared for Amaterasu. He had already arranged for a suicide soldier to sacrifice himself for him when Uchiha Shisui activated Amaterasu.

Watching the Root he had nurtured howl in agony amidst the black flames, Danzo remained expressionless, his eyes revealing a chilling indifference. He showed no mental fluctuation whatsoever at the mere thought of a life vanishing before his very eyes.

"Grab him, but remember not to let him destroy your eyes." Danzo pointed at Uchiha Shisui, but moved backward in the opposite direction, clearly not intending to risk his life himself.

In the original story, the reason why Uchiha Shisui was able to escape was entirely because Danzo chose to attack Uchiha Shisui in a remote place to avoid being discovered, a place where escape was easier.

Now, at Root's headquarters, surrounded by enemy forces, Uchiha Shisui, despite using all his methods and even killing nearly a hundred Root ninjas, still fell into Danzo's hands.

"Hahahahaha..."

Surrounded by corpses of various causes of death, Danzo stood before Uchiha Shisui, looking at the dying and unconscious man, and laughed wildly, appearing incredibly sinister and terrifying.

In the darkness, a pair of blood-red Mangekyou Sharingan eyes could be vaguely seen, radiating endless hatred.

Chapter 384, The Ineffective Kotoamatsukami

"Itachi Uchiha, Lord Danzo requests your presence."

Yi Shuihan did not come to the training ground. Uchiha Itachi was carrying out his daily training. Since becoming Yi Shuihan's disciple, his strength had improved rapidly. Because of this, he was training even harder.

"The people of the Root?"

Itachi Uchiha frowned. The Root members in front of him were weaklings he could easily defeat, but the people behind them were not to be underestimated.

Danzo was a notorious figure even in other countries, and in Konoha, people feared him even more than they revered the Hokage.

"I don't have time, I still need to cultivate."

He replied coldly that Uchiha Itachi had no intention of meeting Danzo. In the past, he wouldn't have been so confident, but with Yi Shuihan as his master, he could do many things according to his own mood.

"How dare you disobey Lord Danzo's orders!"

"Bold."

"Are all members of the Uchiha clan as disrespectful as you?"

The two secret agents continued their insults, but then they saw a pair of menacing eyes.

Itachi Uchiha's eyes had transformed into kaleidoscopes, and the ANBU members staring at them felt as if they were bound by some kind of force, and a strong sense of fear arose from the bottom of their hearts. Even the Root members who had become assassins were frightened for a moment.

Seeing that his intimidation had worked, Itachi Uchiha stopped making things difficult for the two and continued his training as if no one else was around.

"Uchiha Shisui, don't you want to see Uchiha Shisui?"

"What? Brother Shisui!! How...how is he?"

"Uchiha Shisui is with Danzo and is fine for now, but you won't know if you don't go."

Itachi Uchiha's expression shifted, but he ultimately decided to go see Danzo, thinking that with his current strength, he could protect himself even if something unexpected happened.

"Lead the way!"

Shortly after Itachi Uchiha went to see Danzo, something unusual happened at the hot spring resort.

"You mean a kunai suddenly shot in from outside, with a letter attached, like this?" Yi Shuihan asked Matt Dai as he opened the letter.

"That's right. I remember when I was bursting with youthful energy and about to break my own record for the fastest push-up in an hour, a kunai suddenly flew in."

Matt Day seemed somewhat annoyed that his record hadn't been broken by accident, and appeared rather unhappy.

"what?"

Upon seeing what was written in the letter, Yi Shuihan let out a soft "hmm," and his expression quickly turned serious.

"Uchiha Itachi is in my hands. If you want him to live, come to xxx."

A prank? Or...?

Too lazy to think, Yi Shuihan directly released his spirit, which enveloped the entire Konoha and continued to spread.

In an instant, they found Itachi Uchiha's location and learned that it was all because of Danzo.

"court death!"

With a loud shout, Yi Shuihan vanished from Might Guy's sight.

"Wow, so fast! Where's the boss?"

Matt Day looked completely bewildered, unaware of how shocking what was about to happen would be.

On the back mountain, Itachi Uchiha lay unconscious on the ground, with two Root members guarding him beside him. Not far away, about 10 meters away, Danzo stood alone.

The gauze had been completely removed, revealing Danzo's gloomy face. He had his eyes closed and was waiting for Yi Shuihan to arrive.

Uchiha Shisui's eyes have been transplanted into Danzo's body. However, because the eyes do not belong to him, he cannot freely switch the state of his eyes like a normal Sharingan user. Of course, it's not that he can't switch, but switching is much slower than the original Sharingan user, which will become a major weakness in battle.

With Yi Shuihan about to be dealt with, Danzo naturally wouldn't switch his eyes during the battle, so he kept his Mangekyou Sharingan open. The reason he kept his eyes closed was to relieve the pressure caused by opening them.

On the surface, there were only Danzo, two Root ninjas, and Itachi Uchiha, but in reality, nearly a hundred ninjas had already hidden around them.

As an assassination unit, these Root ninjas all possess their own unique methods of concealment. Apart from sensory ninjas, even their master Danzo would have to observe carefully to discover the slightest clue.

Even if the Third Hokage came, this lineup would only have a slim chance of survival. Add to that Uchiha Shisui's Kotoamatsukami, and it's a perfect setup.

"Danzo! Is your coffin ready?"

Yi Shuihan's voice was extremely cold. He truly harbored murderous intent towards Danzo. He had already let Danzo go once, yet Danzo still dared to oppose him. Danzo was courting death, and Yi Shuihan had no intention of indulging him.

"Do it!"

Danzo shouted, and a series of banging sounds rang out as countless ninjas appeared, immediately throwing out kunai, senbon, and shuriken before quickly forming hand seals.

Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique

"Great Breakthrough in Wind Release"

Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique

"Water Escape Water Bullet"

"Thunder Escape and Thunder Robbery"

"..."

Nearly a hundred ninjutsu techniques were used in a scene of relentless battle, with constant booming sounds and the ground shaking as if an earthquake had occurred.

The bombardment lasted for nearly a minute before gradually quieting down.

As the smoke cleared, Yi Shuihan stood unharmed in the same spot.

"Thinking that would solve it..."

Yi Shuihan was about to make a sarcastic remark when he saw Danzo's kaleidoscope eyes and his eyes, which were not filled with panic but with fanaticism.

What the hell?

"Indeed, only someone as powerful as you is qualified to withstand this technique!"

"From this day forward, become my shadow, and contribute your strength to my great cause! Kotoamatsukami!"

With a furious shout, the kaleidoscope began to spin rapidly, its pupil power being consumed frantically, transforming into a strange energy that eroded Yi Shuihan.

"Submit, submit! Your master is Danzo, you are Danzo's most loyal servant, you are willing to give everything for Lord Danzo, Danzo's words are the truth, everything is based on Lord Danzo's will."

Such thoughts kept popping into Yi Shuihan's mind, making him feel very annoyed.

"Did you make it?"

Danzo had already closed one of his eyes. Kotoamatsukami is a dojutsu that can only be used once every 10 years and consumes a great deal of energy. In order to ensure the success of Kotoamatsukami, Danzo used Kotoamatsukami in both eyes at the same time, going to great lengths.

"What success? Is it that Danzo has become my most loyal servant?"

Yi Shuihan chuckled and spoke, his words causing Danzo's expression to change drastically.

"Impossible, how could Kotoamatsukami fail?"

Danzo was devastated at this moment, never expecting that Kotoamatsukami would have no effect on Yi Shuihan.

Chapter 385, The Giant Hand of Lightning Descending from the Sky

"You should be glad I didn't want to take on such a useless subordinate as you."

Yi Shuihan said slowly and deliberately. With his strength, he could easily make Kotoamatsukami turn against him. However, he was not interested in taking Danzo into his service. Before he came here, Danzo's fate was already sealed. He would die.

"What do you want to do? You dare to kill me? If you kill me, Konoha will not let you get away with it."

Danzo spoke with a fierce but inwardly weak tone, retreating repeatedly as if this gave him some sense of security.

It was clearly a group of people surrounding Yi Shuihan, but now it looked as if Yi Shuihan was surrounding a group of people.

It wasn't that Danzo was weak; it was simply that Yi Shuihan was too strong. Danzo still vividly remembered what happened back then, and his current subordinates were even stronger than before. But even so, he didn't believe the outcome would change.

If it weren't for Bie Tianshen, he wouldn't even have had the courage to confront Yi Shuihan head-on. Instead, it was Bie Tianshen who gave him the courage to stand up to him, leaving him with nothing but fear and unease.

He's Danzo, a man destined for Hokage. How could he possibly die here in a direct confrontation?

Run, run into the village. Once you get there, there will be third and fourth generations of descendants. You can then save your life, but you'll have to abandon your men here.

Danzo knew that if no one delayed him, he would never be able to escape back to the village.

A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he shouted, "Kill him at all costs!"

The masked Root assassins sprang into action upon hearing the order, unleashing a flurry of ninjutsu, taijutsu, and even genjutsu.

Danzo, who was supposed to be full of vigor and waiting for Yi Shuihan to be besieged and killed, well, that's how the script should have been.

He rushed to Itachi Uchiha in a panic, grabbed Itachi, and fled in haste with the last two Root members who had not joined the attack.

Danzo was not happy at all that he hadn't killed Itachi Uchiha as a last resort, but now that it had actually come in handy.

He cursed inwardly, wondering why Yi Shuihan was so powerful that even the God of Heaven was powerless against him. Although he hoped Yi Shuihan would be as strong as possible, since the stronger Yi Shuihan was, the stronger the power would be after being controlled, he also hoped that Yi Shuihan would be weaker after he could not be controlled, so that he would have a greater chance of escaping.

The streets of Konoha were now in sight. Danzo felt a mix of tension and relief, because Yi Shuihan was not in his line of sight and was probably still fighting with his subordinates.

Danzo, who thought he had escaped a calamity, was already thinking about how to kill Yi Shuihan. Countless schemes and plots were brewing in his mind, and several plans were formulated in the blink of an eye.

Since they can't be used by me, then they might as well die.

Suddenly, Danzo felt a sudden, inexplicable unease, as if some great calamity was about to befall him.

He turned around abruptly, thinking it was Yi Shuihan chasing after him.

"What's going on? Nobody's here?"
