Chapter 718: Evolution or Death?
“Tenseigan?!”
Staring at Kuroto’s Dojutsu that seemed to twinkle like stars, Danzo was fascinated and couldn’t even look anywhere else and seemed to be drawn in by the beauty and power that those eyes seem to contain.
If it was until a few days ago, Danzo would have never believed that Hyuga’s Byakugan would have such a beautiful and powerful evolution. This is the main reason why Danzo always only focused his attention on the Uchiha Clan, not on the Hyuga Clan.
Although Danzo had always hated the Uchiha Clan, he has never been able to deny that their Kekkei Genkai Sharingan is the most wonderful Kekkei Genkai, not only does Sharingan provide a lot of bonuses to their users, but Sharingan also has several evolutionary stages, and the best part is that Sharingan can also be used to cast Izanagi!
In the face of all the abilities that come with Sharingan, the Byakugan naturally pales… so even though both Sharingan and Byakugan are part of the three Great Dojutsu just like the Rinnegan, Danzo has never given the same value to the Byakugan.
But now that he is seeing Kuroto’s Dojutsu, Danzo feels like an idiot for judging that Byakugan can’t evolve… and come to think of it, the evolution of Byakugan seems much stronger than the evolution of Sharingan… after all, Mangekyou Sharingan doesn’t seem to be as powerful as the Tenseigan… Although he feels that if his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan evolves again, he will gain a dojutsu as powerful or more powerful than Kuroto’s Tenseigan… but that’s not the point!
The point is, “No wonder both Sharingan and Byakugan are part of the three Great Dojutsu!” Or maybe it should be said that not Sharingan and Byakugan, but their evolutions are!
And while Danzo was lost in thought, Shisui and Itachi were able to use this opportunity to break through the obstruction of Wooden vines and rushed toward the center of the battlefield.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
“Kuroto-san!” Seeing Kuroto present on the battlefield in person, both Shisui and Itachi breathed a sigh of relief.
Like every other shinobi in this world, the image of Kuroto aka Yama being the strongest has been itched in their hearts, so they are much more relieved about the outcome of the battle knowing that Kuroto is around.
Seeing Shisui and Itachi arrive, Kuroto looked at them and nodded lightly.
Danzo also turned his gaze at the two of them and roared, “Uchiha Shisui… And Uchiha Itachi too…! You too… how dare you two…! All this while the two of you have been making a fool of me and everyone!”
For the identity of Shisui, Danzo had already recognized that the moment he laid his eyes upon Shisui’s Susano’o, as for Itachi… because of all the fighting and destruction of countless tree vines, at some point Itachi’s mask broke, revealing his face.
Of course, Itachi did have the option of covering his face with another temporary mask, however, seeing that even Kuroto was present in person while not wearing the mask, so Itachi didn’t bother allowing Danzo to recognize him.
And as Danzo realized that both Yama and male Homusubi were lurking right under his nose strutting back and forth in the village, Danzo became more and more enraged.
Shisui and Itachi ignored Danzo’s words and worriedly looked at the unconscious Tsukihi who was still held by Danzo.
Worried, Itachi called out to Tsukihi, “Tsukihi-san… are you… are you all right?!”
Seeing Itachi’s worried expression, Danzo smirked coldly and lifted Tsukihi higher into the sky, as he said menacingly while tightening his grip, “What do you think?”
Because there is no soul present inside Tsukihi’s body so it very much looked close to death.
Danzo’s action angered Itachi, his face became gloomy and he looked at Danzo murderously as if he would kill him instantly if something happened to Tsukihi.
Although not as much as Itachi, Shisui was also very angry, at the same time, he also felt extremely guilty for such a state of Tsukihi and apologized to Kuroto, “Kuroto-san… I am sorry… we underestimated Danzo’s strength… he turned out to be much stronger than we had expected, now it seems only you can stop him!”
Kuroto shook his head and said lightly, “Don’t worry about… the moment I arrived here, the matter was already solved, so the two of you don’t have to worry anymore.”
Shisui was taken aback, “Already?”
Kuroto nodded, “Mm-hmm… He has no chance of surviving!”
Shisui breathed a sigh of relief, “really Kuroto-san…”
Kuroto didn’t lie… the moment he came here, he knew that his chances of winning were a hundred percent, even if any surprises come, the chances will only be reduced by ten percent, and Danzo will still die.
How can Kuroto be so sure?
To answer that question, let’s first talk about something else.
Actually, killing Danzo is a bit of a headache… this is not because Kuroto can’t defeat Danzo, it’s because once Kuroto defeats him, he will use Izanagi to change his fate. Given Danzo’s character, he would use Izanagi without a doubt, since Danzo doesn’t have any Sharingan other than the pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan so using Izanagi would mean permanent blindness of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. But Kuroto doesn’t want that, he has no idea of how to restore the vision and power of those eyes… so can’t allow Danzo to use Izanagi.
Precisely because of this concern, Kuroto didn’t directly fight Danzo using his main body… because he knows that he will be able to easily defeat Danzo which will result in Danzo wasting the Visual Prowess of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
So, he fought against Danzo using Tsukihi clone, his intention was to use Tsukihi’s Visual Prowess to affect Danzo’s Visual Prowess, although the plan didn’t work out that way and Danzo was able to start absorbing her own Visual Prowess, however, she quickly noticed that while Danzo is absorbing Visual Prowess he can not use any other Sharingan abilities, including Izanagi, and while he is absorbing Visual Prowess, he can’t stop in between otherwise all the effort will become waste.
This means no use of Izanagi if he wants to evolve his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan!
After Kuroto figured out the problem on Danzo’s end, he immediately ejected his soul out of Tsukihi’s body and came to the battlefield in person.
And now it’s time to put an end to Danzo’s life.
Looking at Kuroto taking steps forward, Danzo panicked… he took a step back and pointed his hand at Tsukihi’s pretty face as he roared, “Take a step forward and I will immediately kill her! You should be able to see that she is still alive, only unconscious… if you move a single step, I will kill her!”
Kuroto smirked, and said as he continued walking towards Danzo, “Whether you kill her or not, you aren’t escaping today.”
Kuroto knows that Danzo is only bluffing, he wouldn’t dare do that as killing Homusubi would also mean forever giving up the opportunity to evolve his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. So, rather than being a hostage, Tsukihi is more like a shackle on Danzo restricting him from using Izanagi.
Seeing Kuroto unmoved by his warning, Danzo mistakenly thought that Kuroto is also a ruthless person and doesn’t care about the safety of his subordinates, after all, he is such a person, so he no longer bothered to threaten him with Tsukihi’s life and decided to use Ninjutsu.
One after another, Danzo used all the Kekkei Genkai and Jutsu from all the seven chakra natures that he knows, but all proved fruitless as Kuroto simply absorbed the ones he could and dodged the ones he couldn’t.
Looking at Kuroto getting closer and closer to him, and feeling his eyes getting closer and closer to evolution, Danzo’s mind started to get crazy in fear and excitement, “No… no stay away… almost… almost… just a few more steps…!”
The only thing Danzo didn’t understand is that the closer he is approaching gaining evolved eyes, the closer he is getting to his death!
Even now if Danzo stops absorbing Tsukihi’s Visual Prowess, there might be some chance that he can escape his coming death, however, he didn’t even consider that possibility because he is greedy.
At this moment, a change started to appear in Danzo’s eyes, and sensing that change, Kuroto stopped deliberately dawdling and made his move…
