Chapter 92: The End of Danzo! There is no way to revive him anymore!
Danzo Shimura stood up once again, perfectly unharmed. Each pang of death was deeply etched into Danzo's soul, driving him to the brink of madness.
"Do you know, Danzo?" Akira's voice rang out.
"I could have cut off your arm, the one with the transplanted Sharingan, right from the start."
"Then, your resurrection Ninjutsu would have been impossible to cast."
Danzo's body stiffened abruptly.
Yes. Why didn't he do that?
"But," Akira smiled cruelly. "That would have been too easy for you."
"I want you to taste death, again and again."
"Let you die in endless despair."
Danzo completely broke down. He looked at Akira, all his schemes, all his machinations, transforming into the most primal fear of death.
Boom!
Akira's figure once again turned into a flash of lightning.
...
The 5th time. Danzo's body was torn to shreds by the violent Lightning Release Ninjutsu.
Buzz—
Danzo's figure reformed.
Only this time, Danzo didn't hesitate in the slightest, tearing away the bandage wrapped around his right eye. A Mangekyō Sharingan, completely different from the three-tomoe ones on his arm, was exposed to the air.
It was Uchiha Shisui's eye.
"Haha... hahaha!" Danzo, having survived, let out a deranged laugh.
"Uchiha Akira!"
"It's over!"
"This is Uchiha Shisui's eye! This is the strongest Genjutsu, Kotoamatsukami!"
"You will become my most loyal dog! You and the entire Uchiha clan behind you will be at my disposal!"
This was his trump card for turning the tables. Danzo firmly believed that before Kotoamatsukami, no one could resist. As long as he controlled Akira, he could reverse this certain-death situation. Victory still belonged to him, Danzo Shimura.
He pushed the ocular power of his right eye to the extreme.
"Kotoamatsukami!"
A terrifying power capable of rewriting will instantly enveloped Akira. The surrounding Uchiha Jōnin all showed worried expressions.
However, Akira, who was at the center of the Genjutsu, simply stood still. Not even his gaze showed the slightest change.
Danzo's wild laughter abruptly stopped. The expression on his face froze.
"What... happened?"
"Why... didn't you..."
"Kotoamatsukami."
"It can permanently rewrite the opponent's will without them knowing."
"Indeed, it is truly the strongest Genjutsu."
"It's just a pity..."
Akira gently shook his head, his tone carrying a hint of undisguised pity.
"It's useless against me."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, your last trump card is worthless in front of me!"
Danzo's heart instantly sank into a bottomless abyss. His strongest trump card, his only hope of turning the tide, had actually... failed?
"I almost forgot."
Akira's gaze fell on Danzo's exposed Mangekyō.
"Shisui's eye is still with you."
"This eye, on an old dog like you, is truly... a waste of heaven's gifts."
The moment his words fell, the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan pattern in Akira's eyes spun fiercely. Overbearing ocular power descended with a roar.
Danzo only felt the world before him suddenly blur. Everything around him was distorting, breaking apart.
Danzo's body stood rigidly in place. The expression on his face was dull and empty, like a puppet that had lost its soul.
Akira walked unhurriedly in front of Danzo.
Pfft.
Without any obstruction, Akira's finger plunged into Danzo's eye socket and gently scooped it out. That Mangekyō Sharingan of Uchiha Shisui was completely removed by Akira.
Now, both of Shisui's eyes were in Akira's possession.
Akira sealed Shisui's eye. Then, he released Danzo from the Genjutsu.
Danzo's empty gaze refocused. Danzo subconsciously raised his hand to touch his right eye.
"Ah... ah ah..."
"My eye!"
"My Kotoamatsukami!"
That Mangekyō, the eye Danzo cherished like a treasure, was gone. Danzo completely collapsed.
Boom!
A flash of lightning. Danzo's voice abruptly ceased. On his right arm, another Sharingan closed forever.
"And there are..."
"4 lives left."
Akira's judgment rang out again.
"No... don't..."
The words of surrender were on the tip of Danzo's tongue, but he swallowed them back. He knew that begging was useless. Akira would not let him go, and the Uchiha clan present would not let him go. All that remained was endless fear of death.
Danzo wanted to escape. But, nearly a hundred pairs of Sharingan were watching him. And there was also Akira, a terrifying existence with extreme speed.
There was no way to escape!
Crack!
Danzo's head was once again stomped into the ground by Akira.
Buzz—
Resurrection.
...
"2 more lives left."
Each death was an extreme pain. Each resurrection was a deeper despair.
Danzo Shimura, this overlord who had stirred up trouble in Konoha's darkness for half a century, was now like a dead dog repeatedly beaten. He couldn't even put up a decent resistance anymore.
"Only 1 life left."
Akira's voice was like the final judgment. Danzo's body trembled violently. He looked at the last opened, crimson Sharingan on his right arm. This was his last chance at survival.
"Haha... hahaha..."
Danzo suddenly let out a deranged laugh. The laughter was filled with despair and venom, the madness of a cornered beast.
"Uchiha Akira!"
"Even if I die!"
"You won't have it easy either!"
Danzo, instead of retreating, advanced, pouncing towards Akira.
"Reverse Four Symbols Sealing Jutsu!"
Danzo violently tore open the clothes on his upper body, revealing his emaciated chest covered with curse marks. A destructive, terrifying chakra burst forth from his body with a roar. Black curse marks, like living things, frantically spread outwards from his chest.
This was his last resort. A forbidden Jutsu of mutual destruction, at the cost of his own life, sealing everything around him into his corpse.
However, Akira simply watched Danzo silently. His Mangekyō Sharingan activated.
Danzo's "Reverse Four Symbols Sealing Jutsu!" immediately reversed onto Danzo himself.
The next instant.
Pfft.
A hand precisely pierced through Danzo's back. Akira crushed Danzo's heart.
On Danzo's right arm, that last Sharingan finally lost all its luster and closed forever.
This time, there was no chance of resurrection again.
