Chapter 42 Showdown with Danzo: Displaying the talents of the immortal race, Danzo's killing in
"I never expected that Shingetsu could fight Lord Danzo to a standstill?"
"Rumors circulated that Shingetsu's talent was no less than Shisui's; Itachi, it seems, is true!"
Now, the Root ninjas finally realized how powerful Shingetsu was.
"Kamizuki, well done!" The Uchiha clansmen behind Fugaku watched with bated breath, feeling both excited by Kamiya's strength and wary of Danzo's unfathomable power.
Fugaku and Shisui kept their hands on their ninja tool pouches, their eyes fixed on the battle, ready to intervene if Kamizuki was in danger.
In the field.
For a fleeting moment, Danzo was forced back by Shingetsu.
A cold light gleamed deep within his single eye.
He had thought that even if this kid was exceptionally talented, able to awaken the three-tomoe Sharingan at the age of ten, master the Eight Gates, and possess decent taijutsu, he would at most be a special Jonin, and in front of him, a Kage-level powerhouse, he would at most be a troublesome prey.
However, after this exchange, the combat wisdom, timing, chakra control, and seamless application of various ninjutsu and taijutsu that Shingetsu displayed far exceeded the level expected of someone his age. It even gave him the feeling that he was fighting against a highly experienced Jonin.
Especially his Sharingan, with its amazing insight, could always predict his attack trajectory, rendering many of his ingenious variations and killing moves futile.
Although he still held the upper hand due to his superior chakra and experience, Danzo felt humiliated by the fact that he couldn't break through Danzo's defenses and was being entangled with a mere brat in front of so many Uchiha. His killing intent grew stronger.
He never expected that this ten-year-old Uchiha brat would actually possess the strength to briefly contend with him!
This talent and growth rate must not be allowed to continue!
"We can't let him live! This kid is growing too fast; given time, he'll become a major threat!" A cold glint flashed in Danzo's single eye as he resolved not to delay any longer.
He leaped backward to create distance, his hands instantly forming hand seals, and his wind-attribute chakra surged forth!
"Wind Release: Vacuum Wave Barrage!"
He opened his mouth and spat out several incredibly condensed wind blades, invisible to the naked eye yet extremely sharp, like transparent weasels, cutting through the air with a piercing shriek and at an incredibly fast speed and tricky angle, covering Shenyue!
This move has a wide range, high speed, and extremely strong penetrating power. It is a mid-to-long-range killing ninjutsu that Danzo is extremely good at.
"So fast!" Shen Yue's Sharingan spun rapidly, accurately capturing the trajectory of the wind blade, and his figure dodged and moved as fast as a willow catkin in the wind.
However, there were too many wind blades, and the coverage area was too large. Even though he reacted quickly, one wind blade still grazed the back of his hand!
laugh!
A thin, long bloodstain appeared on the back of Shenyue's hand, and blood seeped out instantly.
If he hadn't turned around in time and used his chakra to protect his vitals, this blow would probably have sliced off half of his hand!
"Oh no!" Fugaku exclaimed, extremely worried about Shingetsu's safety.
"Clan leader, please calm down, Shenyue still has a backup plan!" However, Zhishui knew that Shenyue had a hidden trump card.
Fugaku was slightly relieved, but he was still prepared to act at any time.
Shingetsu is the future hope of the Uchiha clan.
Nothing can happen!
"Hmph!" Seeing this, Danzo felt a little more at ease and was about to press his advantage.
However, Shen Yue clenched her injured right hand into a fist. Instead of retreating, she sharpened her eyes and her chakra circulated rapidly according to the unique route taught by Ji Riku!
"You old scoundrel Danzo, let me show you my newly learned ultimate technique!"
"A Celestial Talent Arrives - Thousand Hands Slaughter!"
He quickly formed hand seals and uttered a low shout, and a condensed golden chakra light instantly rose from his body!
Although not as grand as the previous test in the courtyard, it still condensed several clear golden chakra arm phantoms, carrying a steady, heavy, and extremely sharp aura, and slammed towards Danzo!
"What?! This is the Fire Temple's ultimate technique?!"
Danzo's one-eyed pupil contracted, his horror growing even stronger.
Where did this kid learn this secret ninjutsu?
And judging from this posture, they have clearly already entered the inner circle!
In his haste, he could only hold his cane horizontally in front of him and gather chakra to block.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Several golden fist imprints slammed into Danzo's cane and defensive chakra in succession, producing a dull thud.
Danzo felt an immense force surge through him, the ground beneath his feet shattered inch by inch, and he was blasted back seven or eight steps before he could barely regain his footing. His blood and qi surged within him, and his hand holding the cane went numb.
"A good opportunity!" A glint flashed in Shen Yue's eyes as she prepared to press her advantage and expand her gains.
However, just as his old strength was exhausted and his new strength had not yet been generated, his body paused slightly.
A cold and cunning glint flashed in Danzo's eyes. With lightning speed, he pointed his free left hand towards the direction of Shingetsu!
"Sealing Seal - Seal of Self-Karmic Binding!"
hum!
A complex black incantation pattern suddenly lit up on the ground beneath Shen Yue's feet!
A cold, binding force erupted from the curse seal, transforming into several jet-black chakra chains that coiled around Shingetsu's legs and waist like venomous snakes, pinning him firmly to the spot!
"Hmm, they actually set up a cursed seal without me noticing?!"
"You've got some skills, Danzo!" Shingetsu was startled, but didn't panic too much.
He immediately mobilized his chakra to try to break free, but the power of the cursed seal was exceptionally tough and had strong sealing and binding properties, making it difficult to break free in a short time.
Clearly, Danzo had secretly planted the seeds of the cursed seal on the ground during the previous battle, and now he suddenly activated it, catching Shingetsu off guard!
"Kid, this ends here!" Danzo steadied himself, his single eye blazing with killing intent. He gathered sharp wind-style chakra at the tip of his cane, which spun rapidly like a drill, aiming straight for Shingetsu's chest, who was temporarily restrained and unable to dodge!
He was determined to win this attack!
"Shenyue!"
"Danzo, you dare?!"
Two angry shouts rang out almost simultaneously!
Fugaku and Shisui, who had been watching the battle intently and were ready to act, could no longer stand by and watch as Kamizuki was in danger!
Fugaku's eyes instantly turned crimson, and his three tomoe spun rapidly as he charged forward.
Shisui's figure blurred, almost turning into a blur, as his Mangekyou Sharingan was activated, preparing to use the Body Flicker Technique to intercept him directly!
The situation instantly became extremely critical, and it seemed that an even more intense conflict, or even a full-scale battle between the Uchiha and Root, was about to erupt!
At this critical moment.
"stop!!!"
A deep, yet authoritative shout resounded like thunder throughout the arena!
