Chapter 101: The Uchiha Wander Plan 6
Every person can only live within the irresistible flow of memory. There is only one fate that everyone possesses equally, and that is death.
"To entrust your life at a critical moment to a jutsu that can turn it all into a delusion... the moment you treat life as a disposable chip, you have already lost, Danzo."
The boy's words scattered with the thunder. Danzo, after his second death, not only did not become more cautious, but instead left his back exposed to the silver-haired boy who saw him as a kill-on-sight target. This in itself was the biggest mistake. Or perhaps Danzo thought his speed could already surpass that of Kakashi Hatake, who had activated the second stage of his Body Flicker.
The second Sharingan closed permanently. Danzo didn't think it was a big deal. As long as he could survive, he could get as many of these things as he wanted in the future. The death in battle only consumed the chakra for revival. As long as his chakra was not depleted, he was immortal.
Until now, the leader of Root still believed that the reason for his two deaths was his lack of will to fight, his desire to quickly leave this place.
Just like a rat, this old thing scurrying away in panic.
Then I shall reluctantly play the role of the cat.
Kakashi lowered his Body Flicker from the second stage to the first. He was as fast as Danzo was, closing the distance meter by meter to the man he dreamed of tearing apart. The lightning dragon flew in the sky alongside Kakashi, a two-in-one entity projecting an absolute killing intent that the pursued could not turn back from.
The icy feeling at his throat made Danzo's back become soaked with sweat. This posture of fleeing with all his might was indeed a disgrace to him. And to be pursued by this Hatake family brat was an unforgivable sin. He couldn't help but look up at the green giant still fighting in the distance and came up with a plan, changing direction to approach Shisui Uchiha.
"Looking for help? I bet you won't live to get there."
The lightning dragon descended from the sky. The dazzling purple light turned into white light the moment it hit the ground. A violent explosion sounded, and a dragon's claw stretched out from the smoke, lightning crackling relentlessly. Suddenly, a torrential downpour began to fall from the sky.
The sound of the pouring rain intensified everyone's suppressed and painful emotions. Raindrops splattered on the ground, kicking up streams of dirty water. A bolt of natural blue lightning struck the side of the lightning dragon, causing it to swell by another thirty percent. Kakashi beckoned with his hand, and the giant claw of the purple electric lightning dragon gripped the nearly electrocuted and convulsing Danzo and pressed him to the ground in front of the boy.
Like a divine beast paying homage to its master, presenting its offering, the silver-haired boy stopped in his tracks. He said nothing, just quietly watched Danzo, who was electrocuted to the point of near-death but not truly dead, unable to trigger the preset Izanagi.
With difficulty, he raised his head. His face, convulsing from the electricity, was filled with hatred and humiliation. His Sharingan stared intently at this traitor to Konoha. Danzo cursed, the words squeezed from between his teeth reaching Kakashi's ears amidst the noisy environment.
"No--matter--how much--you hate me--Sakumo Hatake--also committed suicide--but he was a hero of Konoha--and you--are just a traitor!!"
Slowly savoring the man's taunts, spit out word by word under torture, was not Kakashi's hobby. But right now, he just wanted to do it. After Danzo finished speaking, the boy still did not answer. He just showed a wicked smile and, with an extremely insulting gesture, pressed Danzo's head sideways into the ground, now wet from the sudden downpour.
He waited until the mouth of the leader of Root, unable to close due to the electric current, was filled with muddy water, before the boy slowly opened his mouth.
"Do you see that?"
"That's the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Hokage of a generation who led Konoha to prosperity. He was in power for decades, and no one dared to question his authority, including you."
"That golden-haired one is the Fourth Hokage. Just took office. Before that, he defeated Kumogakure, single-handedly repelled Iwagakure's front-line forces, cut off Iwagakure's supply lines, a ninja whom various countries have ordered to flee on sight: the Yellow Flash."
"Strange, isn't it? Why have you worked so hard for so long, yet you've never been able to become Hokage? Why did the Third give the position to a young man, when the alternate candidates included Orochimaru and Jiraiya, and even Tsunade who had left the village and was nowhere to be found, but never once considered you?"
"Want to know why?"
The silver-haired boy grabbed Danzo's hair and lifted him up to his chest.
"Because that's all you'll ever be."
The hair in his hand became illusory. Danzo disappeared from the lightning dragon's grasp. Kakashi waved his hand to dismiss the purple lightning dragon, feeling refreshed after forcing that guy to actively use Izanagi.
Seeing his third Sharingan close permanently, the silver-haired boy's expression turned slightly cold. The feeling the Darkness of the Shinobi World gave him now was completely different from before.
It seemed those words had thoroughly enraged him. This was a good thing. Only then would killing him have value. Always dodging... he didn't even deserve the title of leader of Root, let alone Hokage.
The boy wanted to kill the leader of Root who had driven the White Fang to his death, not a coward.
"You... you brat!"
Izanagi had restored all his injuries, even removing all the negative effects. Except for the part of his chakra that had disappeared from his body, no one knew how furious Danzo had been just now.
"I'm going to kill you!"
"What a coincidence. I'm going to kill you too."
The bandages shattered. The last Sharingan on his arm, in coordination with the three-tomoe in his right eye, spun violently.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere Cast Net!"
No longer spewing wind jutsu from his mouth, this time the wind was thrown directly from his right hand. The quality and quantity were worlds apart from before. Wind blades formed a net-like wind wall, carrying with it the rain, now cut into countless projectile droplets, and rushed towards the silver-haired boy.
After using this move, Danzo once again turned and ran, his feet crudely stomping on the ground, kicking up muddy water all over his body without any chakra attached to them.
Faced with this kind of one-sided wind jutsu, which had power but no speed, Kakashi didn't even have the interest to use an Earth-Style Wall. Lightning Release stimulated his body, and he quickly left the attack zone. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Danzo already approaching the combat zone of the Uchiha clan head and Shisui Uchiha.
That old thing, is he running over there to die?
The Uchiha clan head saw the pathetic Danzo at a glance. Without thinking, he swung his Sword of Amaterasu with all his might.
The Darkness of the Shinobi World leaped up, landing on Shisui's Susanoo. Just as Shisui raised his spiral sword to block the Sword of Amaterasu, the former immediately formed a hand seal.
"Summoning Jutsu: Baku!"
The nearly dead Baku was naturally of no value, but he summoned it at this time just to block Shisui's spiral sword.
With a blood-curdling, the Baku died on the spot, but it did indeed block the spiral sword for a moment.
Fugaku Uchiha's Sword of Amaterasu, no longer blocked by the spiral sword, easily killed Danzo and cut through the green giant. Shisui let out a stream of necrotic blood from his eye and knelt on the ground in pain.
The revived Danzo thrust a hand into Shisui's left eye, instantly snatching his Mangekyo Sharingan. Just as he was about to take the right eye, the arriving Kakashi repelled him with a Lightning Cutter.
Pressing Shisui's eye into his original three-tomoe Sharingan socket, the overflowing Mangekyo dōjutsu power made Danzo immediately unleash the legendary ultimate genjutsu on Kakashi, who was at a distance where he could charge in at any moment.
"Kotoamatsukami!"
