The chat group admin really knows when to take action.

Orochimaru and Danzo actually had a long-standing partnership.

In order to research immortality, Orochimaru needed to conduct human experiments.

To do some inhumane things.

The cost of experimental equipment is also a considerable sum.

In Konoha, it would be very difficult for Orochimaru to achieve his dream of immortality.

Later, Danzo found Orochimaru and took a liking to Orochimaru's abilities.

The roots are the darkness of Konoha, where all sorts of bad and despicable things are done.

The two hit it off immediately and began conducting human experiments, including research on interstitial cells.

They also cloned a Wood Release ninja named Yamato using Hashirama's cells.

However, Yamato's Wood Release technique was nowhere near as good as the First Hokage's.

Danzo's arm, which was covered in Sharingan cells from Hashirama, was created by Orochimaru.

The white snake came to Danzo's neck.

Orochimaru watched from a distance with a smile on his face.

"Two Kage-level powerhouses, the Hokage of Konoha and the leader of the Uchiha clan—I dare not lay a hand on them. However, as a collaborator, Danzo, if you die like this, I'll have a real headache. But if you really want to die, then die as my experimental subject! My latest cursed seal is a Sage Art!"

The two are partners, but when it comes to stabbing each other in the back, they show no mercy.

We'll cooperate as long as there's mutual benefit.

They'll betray you at any time if there's profit to be made, and they'll stab you in the back at any time.

Orochimaru had long seen through Danzo's shameless nature. He could foresee that this cooperation would not last long, and that he would likely be pushed out by Danzo to take all the blame.

So now, Orochimaru didn't hesitate at all to stab someone in the back.

Orochimaru was also eager to know how effective the cursed seal he had just created would be against a Kage-level powerhouse.

This is related to his pursuit of immortality.

Experiments require data.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The little snake opened its mouth and bit Danzo directly on the neck.

Then the power of the cursed seal was infused into it.

This is the power of immortal arts.

This force gave Danzo, who was about to die, a little ability to move.

Danzo immediately formed a mudra with both hands.

With such severe injuries, there's only one way to survive.

Forbidden Technique: Izanagi.

Izanagi is the ultimate eye technique of the Uchiha clan. Those who possess the Sharingan can activate Izanagi by forming the three hand seals: 卯, 亥, and 未.

Those who wield the Sharingan can use Izanagi to make things that happen to them within a certain period of time disappear, and only make things that are beneficial to them a reality.

The activation time varies depending on each person's ability, but the Sharingan used after activation will inevitably cause blindness and is dangerous. Even if one dies while in the activation period, one can still change reality. It is a terrifying eye technique that can make one invincible.

In the original work.

Danzo Shimura had as many as ten Sharingan eyes transplanted into his right arm. Each time he used a Sharingan, he could activate Izanagi for one minute. In other words, Danzo had ten minutes of invincibility.

Danzo was killed by Sasuke's Susanoo many times, but he nullified the death each time by using Izanagi.

They seemed to have noticed something unusual.

Minato Namikaze turned to look at Danzo's corpse on the ground. Danzo, already dead, had his hands forming hand seals, and blood stained the ground.

A small snake darted out from Danzo's corpse and flew quickly into the distance.

"Orochimaru?"

Minato Namikaze immediately sensed something was wrong, and as if he had realized something, his expression turned very unpleasant.

"I didn't expect Orochimaru to appear at this time."

Fugaku Uchiha frowned as he looked at Danzo's corpse on the ground.

The Sharingan on the back of the corpse's hand is slowly closing.

Soon, Fugaku Uchiha's pupils dilated violently, and he finally realized what was wrong.

"Izanagi?"

The Sharingan closed, the final seal, and Danzo's final expression—there was no pain.

Can't go wrong.

Fugaku Uchiha recognized the technique.

It was a forbidden technique of his own family.

Each use results in the loss of one eye. Since the Uchiha clan only has two eyes, using this forbidden technique twice would blind a person.

Even Fugaku Uchiha wouldn't use this technique unless he was truly about to die.

At that moment, Fugaku Uchiha finally understood why Danzo had so many Sharingan eyes on his arm, and why he placed them on his arm instead of in his eyes.

Because these Sharingan eyes are consumables; they are discarded after use.

This also shows that the Uchiha clan is a expendable resource.

"You must die, Danzo!"

Fugaku Uchiha is not like Sasuke, who knows nothing from childhood to adulthood.

As the head of the Uchiha clan, he had the right to access all the records of the Uchiha clan.

The same applies to the secrets of the Uchiha clan.

Having served as the clan head for over a decade, Fugaku Uchiha knew a great deal.

That is why he concealed the fact that he had awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

But this time is different; if Danzo isn't killed here...

After returning, Fugaku Uchiha will immediately lead the Uchiha clan away from Konoha.

Not for anything else, just to survive.

They were all being treated as expendable resources, and if they didn't run away soon, their entire clan would be wiped out. Coupled with Danzo's personality, Fugaku Uchiha really had no choice.

"Test the power of my other eye!"

Fugaku Uchiha became serious; countless images flashed through his pupils.

That's a picture of the future.

Fugaku Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan possesses the ability to see the future.

But we can only see a short-term future.

"over there!"

"Art fire escape ho fireball."

Fugaku Uchiha quickly formed hand seals, and a huge fireball burst forth from his mouth, flying into the distance before exploding.

A figure darted out of the flames; it was Danzo. Apart from his clothes being slightly burned by the flames, Danzo was unharmed.

The fatal wound that the Fourth Hokage had inflicted on him seemed to have never existed.

"Wind escape, vacuum waves!"

"Wind Release: Vacuum Jewel".

Danzo quickly formed hand seals and exhaled a large breath.

Vacuum Wave releases several weasel-like air blades that can not only sever the opponent's flesh but also their chakra.

Vacuum Ball is a technique that involves exhaling breath and firing the chakra accumulated in the mouth like bullets. This technique can continuously exhale short breaths, firing like a machine gun, turning the opponent into a honeycomb.

Both of these ninjutsu are B-rank ninjutsu, and are Danzo's signature ninjutsu, which he had long mastered.

Chapter 46, Kunai Pierces Susanoo

Fugaku Uchiha's Sharingan possesses extremely powerful dynamic and static vision, even allowing him to see through an opponent's techniques.

The moment Danzo's attack landed.

Black skeletons appeared around Fugaku Uchiha's body.

Susanoo.

This is an extremely powerful eye technique that can only be used by those who have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

The Susanoo eye technique possesses extremely strong defensive and offensive capabilities.

Ordinary ninjutsu simply cannot break through Susanoo's defenses.

Meanwhile, the Fourth Hokage threw out his three-bladed kunai, and vanished the instant the attack landed.

A gust of wind whipped up a cloud of smoke.

Danzo moved swiftly, passing through the smoke and arriving in front of Fugaku Uchiha.

Fugaku Uchiha thought Danzo had some powerful technique, so he immediately used Susanoo to protect his entire body.

next second.

Danzo pulled out a kunai and stabbed it directly at Susanoo.

Fugaku Uchiha: "???"

What are you doing?!

As expected, the kunai broke in two.

The broken blade flew several meters away.
