Boom!
Amaterasu engulfed Danzō, consuming him in black flames. Yet, under the effects of Izanagi, his death dissolved into an illusion.
Whoosh! Danzō reappeared unharmed several meters away.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Countless blades spilled from his sleeves, floating mid-air. After adjusting their angles, they all pointed at Sasuke.
By marking the weapons and controlling them with ocular power, this was the ability granted by Shin Uchiha's cloned Mangekyō Sharingan!
Swish!
The blades shot toward Sasuke!
Sasuke's eyes narrowed as he dodged with Body Flicker Technique.
A smirk appeared on Danzō's face. The blades turned mid-air, relentlessly pursuing Sasuke like shadows.
Swish!
Sasuke's hands flew through hand seals.
Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!
Boom!
The roaring flames incinerated the leading blades, but the sheer number of weapons overwhelmed the fire. The remaining blades, now heated and glowing, became even deadlier.
"Hmph!"
Sasuke snorted coldly. His Susanoo emerged in its skeletal form, shielding him from the onslaught, keeping the blades three feet away.
Clang! Clang! Clang! The blades repeatedly struck the skeletal defense.
Until the Susanoo's skeletal hand formed a massive sword. With a sweeping motion, it obliterated the remaining blades.
Boom! Sasuke's Susanoo evolved into its second form!
The Bow of Indra materialized, using the sword as an arrow. Sasuke fired it straight at Danzō.
Whoosh! Once again, Danzō's death dissolved into an illusion, his body reappearing unscathed. "It's useless," he taunted. "None of your attacks can harm me."
Whoosh!
One of the Sharingan embedded in Danzō's shoulder closed. Two hundred remained. The theoretical duration of Izanagi still had 199 minutes left.
Sasuke recalled Naruto's warning back in the Land of Iron.
"So that's it," Sasuke sneered. "This is the so-called Izanagi. Sacrificing the light of a Sharingan to gain an invincible state. That's why you've implanted counterfeit Sharingan all over your body, even at the cost of becoming this grotesque, isn't it, Danzō?"
Danzō replied calmly, "Grotesque? No. The true grotesque sight is that of a failure, lying dead and defeated. Like you will be soon. Sasuke Uchiha, I wonder how many of these eyes you can withstand before you fall?"
Crack!
Sasuke's voice was icy. "Go ahead, keep playing with those eyes. I'll keep killing you until I send you to hell!"
Whoosh! Sasuke's skeletal Susanoo charged at Danzō, balancing defense against the blades while maintaining its offensive power.
Kabuto, observing from a distance, commented, "Oh? It seems Sasuke understands this will be a prolonged battle. To conserve chakra, he's opted for an energy-saving mode."
Pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose, Kabuto smirked. "Unfortunately, Danzō isn't just enhanced with more Uchiha eyes. He also has the robust vitality of the Senju."
Clap!
Danzō clasped his hands together.
Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees!
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Saplings burst from the ground, growing into towering trees. They intertwined, forming a forest that surged toward Sasuke.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The skeletal Susanoo was ensnared by the advancing trees. Under the force of the larger trees crashing against it, the skeletal structure began to crack.
Kabuto chuckled. "So, Sasuke, your energy-saving mode isn't just ineffective against Danzō. It's putting you in danger. You have only one choice."
Sasuke's eyes burned with fury. "Don't underestimate me!"
Boom!
Muscles and tendons wrapped around the Susanoo's skeletal frame, forming armor. The crow-headed Susanoo broke free with sheer brute force.
Blaze Release: Kagutsuchi!
Boom!
The black flames of Amaterasu formed a massive sword, slashing and burning through the forest, halting its advance.
Kabuto smirked. "Impressive, but during the time you've spent dealing with the forest, Danzō has reverted to his energy-saving mode by reactivating Izanagi. And Advent of a World of Flowering Trees isn't even a high-level Wood Release. He can use it repeatedly without issue."
Clap!
Danzō clasped his hands together once more.
Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees!
Boom!
The forest surged forward again.
The Amaterasu sword swung fiercely.
Sasuke gritted his teeth. "Damn it! At this rate, it'll never end!"
Whoosh!
Sasuke's Susanoo shed its armored form. Using the remaining chakra, it grew legs, transforming into a full-body form—though not yet its Perfect Form.
Whoosh! The full-body Susanoo leapt high into the air, firing an arrow downward.
Kabuto raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Quick to adapt. He's using this form to bypass the forest and launch a surprise attack."
Slash!
The arrow pierced through Danzō.
But Kabuto sneered. "However, the Mangekyō Sharingan allows for pre-set ocular techniques. Izanagi can be programmed to activate automatically in the face of danger. It's energy-efficient and nearly flawless."
Whoosh!
Danzō's death once again dissolved into an illusion. He reappeared in a different location.
Sasuke growled. "Damn it! I didn't make it in time!"
Crash!
The Susanoo landed, but before it could leap again, the forest entangled it once more.
In this full-body form, the Susanoo had greater mobility but lacked the defense of its armored crow-headed form. The forest's interference severely hindered its effectiveness.
Sizzle!
Sasuke's Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan glowed with savage intensity as he made up his mind.
Susanoo: Perfect Form!
Boom!
A surge of purple chakra erupted, obliterating the forest. As the dust settled, the Susanoo stood tall, a divine warrior towering over the battlefield.
Kabuto smirked. "Finally using this, huh? That's right, Sasuke, you have no other choice."
Danzō gazed up at the colossal figure and murmured, "So this is the Perfect Form of Susanoo. Only Madara Uchiha was said to wield this legendary Uchiha power. Truly extraordinary."
"Danzō, I'll crush you into dust! Aaaahhh!"
Sasuke's roar echoed through the night sky.
The Perfect Form Susanoo raised its massive foot and stomped down with immense force.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground caved in, and Danzō was reduced to a bloody pulp beneath the colossal foot.
Whoosh!
Izanagi activated, and Danzō reappeared at the Susanoo's feet. He sighed, "With this power, you could destroy an entire great ninja village. It's a pity—you're unworthy of it."
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Susanoo stomped repeatedly. Danzō had no chance to resist. One by one, the Sharingan on his body closed. Izanagi was being consumed.
Panting heavily, Sasuke felt his stamina and ocular power draining rapidly. Having only recently awakened his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, the toll of maintaining the Perfect Form Susanoo was immense.
"Damn it!" Sasuke cursed. But he had no choice. He continued to drive the Perfect Form Susanoo, launching relentless attacks to exhaust Danzō's supply of Izanagi.
Whoosh!
After another resurrection, the Susanoo hesitated to attack.
Danzō muttered, "The frequency of Susanoo's attacks is decreasing. It seems his stamina is running low. Now is the time to turn the tide!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The forest surged upward, carrying Danzō into the sky.
Sasuke's eyes sharpened.
Slash! The Perfect Form Susanoo swung its massive sword, slicing through the forest and the mountains in the background.
But in the instant the forest was severed, Danzō leapt forward, using the momentum to approach the Susanoo's core.
As he neared Sasuke, Danzō unwrapped the bandages covering his right eye. The Mangekyō Sharingan of Kagami Uchiha was revealed, locking onto Sasuke's gaze.
Kotoamatsukami!
