The Uchiha Clan's Sun

"Heh, retreat? Where can you retreat to within the space of this Four Purple Sun Formation! Come with me to the Pure Land! Hahahaha..."

Shimura Danzo laughed loudly, and his blood gushed out, forming a sphere as he drew the seal, which then spread outwards!

"Shadow Clone Technique! Koharu, quickly help this old man!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly realized this as well. He paused, plunged his Vajra Staff into the ground, and rapidly formed hand seals to create three shadow clones. At the same time, he shouted for Koharu Utatane to come and help.

Koharu Utatane instantly understood what Hiruzen Sarutobi meant. She came over upon hearing the sound and placed her hands on Hiruzen Sarutobi's back to replenish his chakra.

With his chakra replenished, Hiruzen Sarutobi breathed a slight sigh of relief. He then had three shadow clones form a triangular formation in the east, south, and west directions to protect the three of them in the center, and quickly formed hand seals!

"Sealing Technique: Counter-Three-Way Seal!"

A green, transparent, pyramid-shaped barrier lit up, protecting Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu Utatane, and Homura Mitokado in the center!

The Three-Sided Seal can create a barrier as hard as Vajra to trap opponents, and conversely, it can also be used for defense!

"not enough!"

As Hiruzen Sarutobi watched the blood splattering wildly from Danzo Shimura's chest, he knew that the power of this sealing technique, which cost life, was absolutely not to be underestimated!

One Anti-Three-Part Seal alone is not enough to stop Shimura Danzo's Reverse Four Symbols Seal!

Hiruzen Sarutobi reached into his ninja tool pouch and took out a talisman paper covered with cursed runes. He then threw the talismans into various locations of the Anti-Three-Way Barrier!

"Diamond Seal - Sun Protection!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi clapped his hands together and placed them in front of his chest.

At the same time, the Vajra Staff that Hiruzen Sarutobi had previously placed on the ground connected the cursed runes on the ground together, and two palms made of red and pink chakra reached out out of thin air, protecting Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other two in the middle!

This Monkey Sun Protection can summon special chakra to protect itself, and it will not dissipate until the chakra is exhausted!

This can be considered an absolute defense!

However, the Sarutobi Seal also consumes a huge amount of chakra!

If it weren't for Koharu Utatane's chakra support, Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn't have been able to hold on for long in his current state!

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't need to hold out for long, as Danzo Shimura's Reverse Four Symbols Seal had already spread to nearby!

A giant spherical black curtain swallowed everything, enveloping the entire Hokage Building!

Fortunately, it was the Root ninjas under Shimura Danzo who made the Four Purple Sun Formation's range very large, otherwise they would have been affected by Shimura Danzo's Reverse Four Symbols Sealing Technique!

A few seconds later, the black curtain disappeared, and the entire Hokage Building vanished as well, leaving a large hemispherical crater on the ground!

At the edge of the crater, specks of pink chakra dissipated in the wind, and the figures of Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu Utatane, and Homura Mitokado fell to the ground!

"He's gone mad! He's gone mad! He's absolutely mad! Shimura Danzo actually wants to take us all down with him!"

Mitokado Yan looked at the mess around him, his eyes filled with lingering fear.

They almost died just now!

Koharu Utatane collapsed to the ground. Although Hiruzen Sarutobi had cast the spell, it was mostly her chakra that was used!

Koharu Utatane had reached her limit and was no longer able to fight!

Hiruzen Sarutobi was panting heavily, his expression very serious, and his eyes full of hesitation.

He had a feeling that something was wrong. Had Shimura Danzo really died like that?

However, the Four Symbols Seal can only be performed at the cost of one's own life, and Shimura Danzo did indeed die in front of them, his body completely destroyed!

"careful!"

Just then, the ape demon, which had transformed into the Vajra Ruyi Staff, let out a loud shout and suddenly extended an arm from the staff to grab at Hiruzen Sarutobi's back!

Hiruzen Sarutobi also sensed the strong wind coming from behind, but it was too late to dodge!

With a 'whoosh', a sharp wind blade sliced ​​through, spraying a large amount of blood!

The figures of Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other two scattered in all directions. Hiruzen Sarutobi tightly covered his right shoulder with his left hand, and his right arm had disappeared!

If Enma hadn't deflected Shimura Danzo's wind blade at the last moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn't have just lost his right arm; he would have been cut in two from his right shoulder to his left waist by Shimura Danzo!

"How, how is it possible?!"

Mitokado Homura stared in disbelief at the unharmed Shimura Danzo, his eyes wide with shock!

"Hiruzen, are you alright?!"

Koharu Utatane was also shocked, but she immediately came to Hiruzen Sarutobi's side and squeezed out the last bit of chakra to use Healing Palm Technique to treat Hiruzen Sarutobi's wounds.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze swept over Danzo Shimura before settling on Danzo's right arm.

One of the five Sharingan eyes with three tomoe has already closed halfway!

"Is it a forbidden technique of the Uchiha clan...?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi gritted his teeth in pain and guessed in a trembling voice.

"Indeed, it is a secret technique of the Uchiha clan, called Izanagi!"

Now that he had the upper hand, Shimura Danzo smugly offered an explanation.

However, Shimura Danzo did not get carried away. He did not intend to explain the specific function of Izanagi. Instead, he slowly stepped forward and pressed Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other two.

"At this point, there's no point in you putting up any more resistance!"

"To make you give up completely, let's do it one more time!"

"I just don't know if you guys have enough chakra to withstand this Reverse Four Symbols Seal!"

As Shimura Danzo walked forward, he raised his hand and pulled open his robe again, revealing the cursed runes etched on his chest.

......

Chapter 276 First Impressions Matter!

"Tsk tsk, Shimura Danzo isn't stupid after all..."

Uchiha Jin stood on the rooftop of a small building, looking down at the scene in the large crater below, and couldn't help but sigh.

In his previous life, when watching the anime, Uchiha Jin felt that the duel between Shimura Danzo and Uchiha Sasuke was entirely used to highlight Uchiha Sasuke's strength!

Logically speaking, Shimura Danzo was a seasoned Jonin who had experienced countless battles, and his experience and insight were in no way inferior to that of the fledgling Uchiha Sasuke.

However, in the duel between Shimura Danzo and Uchiha Sasuke, Shimura Danzo not only used Izanagi, a trump card that could decide the outcome of the battle, as a normal attack, but even did something as outrageous as stabbing Susanoo with a kunai!

Did Danzo Shimura not know of the existence of Susanoo? Did Danzo Shimura not understand the power of Susanoo?

This is obviously impossible!

Even if Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others didn't know the power of Susanoo, Danzo Shimura couldn't possibly not know it!

Don't forget, in the original story, Shimura Danzo forced Uchiha Shisui to use Susanoo, and Shimura Danzo's Root paid a heavy price for it!

Having suffered greatly from Susanoo, how could Shimura Danzo not understand its power!

Therefore, Danzo Shimura must have had his intelligence forcibly reduced when he fought Sasuke Uchiha!

At this time, Shimura Danzo, who had not been brainwashed, would not make those low-level mistakes. With Izanagi as a backup, he directly used the "mutual destruction" strategy, leaving Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others with no way to avoid it!

"Does the Uchiha clan head mean he knows what ability Elder Shimura used?"

Nara Shikaku, who was standing nearby, realized something when he heard Uchiha Jin's whisper and turned to ask him.

Everyone had witnessed Shimura Danzo's actions, and they were all astonished by his bizarre ability to 'come back to life.' They all turned to Uchiha Jin, waiting for his answer.

After thinking for a moment, Uchiha Jin didn't hide anything and said, "Shimura Danzo used the ultimate eye technique of my Uchiha clan, Izanagi!"

"Izanagi?"

Nara Shikaku quickly searched his memory, but found no information related to this word!

It should be noted that the Nara clan is a large family that has been passed down in the ninja world for a long time. Even he, the head of the Nara clan, did not know about Izanagi. This shows that Izanagi is definitely a secret that the Uchiha clan does not pass down!

How did Danzo Shimura come to use this technique?

Ignoring Nara Shikaku's thoughts, Uchiha Jin continued, "Izanagi is a technique that can turn unfavorable events that happen within a certain period of time into things that never happened, and only select things that are favorable to oneself to make reality. While it is in its activation period, even if one dies, it can still change reality. It is a terrifying eye technique that can make one invincible!"

Logically speaking, Uchiha Jin shouldn't have made Izanagi, a technique that can turn the tide of battle, public. But now Shimura Danzo has used it openly, and after this battle, everyone will definitely investigate it.

Although Izanagi's existence was kept secret, the Uchiha clan went into a period of madness because of this technique, which was only calmed down after Izanami appeared.

The entire ninja world is only so big. Even Shimura Danzo was able to obtain information about Izanagi, so it's not impossible for others to find out as well.

Therefore, the existence of Izanagi cannot be hidden any longer. It would be better to be open about it and reveal the technique, which would leave a good impression on everyone and also have a deterrent effect.

"Hiss~~, a technique to modify reality that's unfavorable to oneself... does such a thing really exist?"

Nara Shikaku gasped, utterly shocked by Uchiha Jin's words!

If Nara Shikaku was like this, the others were even more shocked, their eyes wide and mouths agape!

However, we can't blame them for this. After all, everyone else is still at the stage of breathing fire and spitting water, while the Uchiha clan has directly transcended life and death and changed reality!

Faced with the Uchiha clan's secret techniques, they are as ordinary as ordinary ninjas, so it's normal that it's hard to accept!

"Whether it exists or not, the facts are right in front of you, aren't they?" Uchiha Jin pointed to the battlefield below and said, "Izanagi is very powerful, but the price is also very high. One Sharingan will lose its sight forever!"

"Shimura Danzo has a total of six Sharingan eyes, including his right eye and right hand. With his abilities, he can maintain Izanagi for about one minute at a time. That means he can use Izanagi six times and maintain invincibility for six minutes!"

"Six minutes?!" Nara Shikaku's attention was also drawn to the area below. He said, "Elder Shimura only needs a dozen seconds to use that mutual destruction technique. Even if you add the preparation time and the time to check the situation, Elder Shimura can still use that mutual destruction technique at least six more times!"

"Third Hokage... is in danger!"

A shadow fell over Nara Shikaku's heart, and he became even more wary of the Uchiha clan!

Although the cost of using that Izanagi technique is enormous, what is an eye compared to a life!

The Uchiha clan was already very powerful, and now they've created something called Izanagi, which is like giving a person three lives, increasing their strength exponentially!

The Uchiha clan truly deserves to be called the number one powerful clan in the ninja world!

"Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others are indeed in danger!" Uchiha Jin's lips curled up slightly, quite satisfied with the current situation, and he said, "But Danzo Shimura won't fare much better!"

"Everyone, as you have all seen, Shimura Danzo not only stole the Sharingan from my Uchiha clan, but also plotted to acquire my Uchiha clan's secret techniques!"

"I don't care what conflicts exist between Shimura Danzo and Hiruzen Sarutobi, but my Uchiha clan is determined to take Shimura Danzo's life. Is there any problem with that?"

Upon hearing this, everyone present, except for a few people like Hiashi Hyuga who knew the truth, was stunned and looked at Uchiha Jin with some surprise.

Judging from the facts, it is perfectly reasonable for the Uchiha clan to demand an explanation from Danzo Shimura for stealing the Uchiha clan's bloodline and secret techniques!

They would even side with the Uchiha clan to prevent such a thing from happening to their own family!

But wasn't Danzo Shimura in a cooperative relationship with your Uchiha clan?

Putting aside the Sharingan, wasn't the Izanagi technique something that your Uchiha clan taught to Shimura Danzo on their own initiative?

It is also because the relationship between the Uchiha clan and Shimura Danzo has been too ambiguous over the years, and Izanagi is a closely guarded secret of the Uchiha clan, so everyone has a preconceived notion that this matter was planned by Shimura Danzo and the Uchiha clan long ago!

Chapter 277 The team battle can be lost, but Danzo must die!

Seeing this, Uchiha Jin realized that everyone might have misunderstood something, and explained with a smile, "Everyone, you should all be aware of the situation of the Uchiha clan in the village. As the saying goes, when people are poor, they think of ways to change. So, in order to improve the situation of our Uchiha clan, we have indeed done a lot of things that may surprise you recently, such as our cooperation with Shimura Danzo..."

At this point, Uchiha Jin paused, and only continued after everyone had turned to look at him: "Shimura Danzo wanted to become the Fourth Hokage, and my Uchiha clan also needed an opportunity... to better integrate into the village. It's simply a matter of mutual benefit between us!"

"Of course, even if we want to integrate into the village, my Uchiha clan would never stoop so low as to sell out our clan's interests and become a dog for Shimura Danzo!"

"We, the Uchiha clan, truly have no idea where Shimura Danzo learned the Izanagi technique or where he obtained those Sharingan eyes!"

"But regardless of where Shimura Danzo learned Izanagi or where he obtained those Sharingan eyes, one thing is certain: he attacked my Uchiha clan members!"

"Even though Shimura Danzo is an elder of the village, it is absolutely intolerable for him to lay a hand on his own people!"

"Therefore, Danzo Shimura must die!"

Uchiha Jin's words left everyone present with complex expressions, but they still believed him when he said that the Uchiha clan and Shimura Danzo's relationship was simply a matter of mutual benefit.

After all, it's common knowledge that the Uchiha clan and Danzo Shimura have been at odds for many years. It would be really strange if the Uchiha clan were actually inseparable from Danzo Shimura!

Nara Shikaku said meaningfully, "It seems that Elder Shimura's offer to your Uchiha clan for the time being, to allow you to temporarily set aside your prejudices, is not just about 'integrating into the village'!"

Uchiha Jin shrugged and said, "It's great that we can integrate into the village, and it's also good if we can contribute to the village's prosperity!"

After a pause, Uchiha Jin didn't dwell on the topic and steered the conversation back to the main point: "I think everyone knows what kind of person Shimura Danzo is. Konoha has lost a lot of internal strength because of him over the years!"

"So Danzo Shimura's death should be a good thing for everyone!"

"This time, he has been caught red-handed by my Uchiha clan, and my Uchiha clan is willing to be the first to speak up. Now all we need to do is express your opinion!"
