Chapter 62: Shisui's Crisis [Part 2]

"You actually took my grandfather's Sharingan..."

Shisui's face was filled with endless anger. He never expected Danzo to be so crazy as to dig out his grandfather Uchiha Kagami's eyes. Kagami was Danzo's classmate and both were disciples of the Second Hokage. But after his grandfather died, he couldn't even keep his whole body intact, and his eyes were dug out.

"Using his power to protect Konoha, even if Kagami knew, he would be pleased!"

Danzo showed no remorse. Even though Uchiha Kagami was his classmate, he was still a member of the Uchiha clan. As someone who inherited the ambition of the Second Hokage, Danzo had no emotional attachment to the Uchiha clan.

"Give me back my grandfather's eyes!"

Shisui roared and drew the short sword on his back. Shisui's parents died on the battlefield when he was young, and his grandfather Uchiha Kagami raised him. But after his grandfather's death, Danzo dug out his eyes. Shisui was furious.

"Kill him and take his left eye too!"

Danzo ordered, and a large group of Root Ninja instantly appeared in the Root Base. He was already prepared to take Shisui's Sharingan today and had set up many ambushes here.

"Get out of my way! Fire Release - Phoenix Sage Fire Claw..."

Flames wrapped around the red-hot kunai and shot out, killing two Root Ninja who were charging towards him. The windmill in Shisui's left eye turned lightly, and he used Genjutsu to freeze the Root Ninja who had just drawn his sword in place. Shisui, who was angered by Danzo, had no intention of showing mercy. He swung his short sword and took the Root Ninja's life.

"Don't hold back, just make sure his Sharingan is intact..."

Danzo stood behind the Root Ninja and said coldly. He didn't care about Shisui's life or death, as long as he got the Mangekyo Sharingan he wanted.

"Do you want my Sharingan? Come and try!"

Shisui gasped for breath, and only endless killing intent remained in his left eye. The pain from his right eye made him more conscious than ever. When he saw Danzo's right eye, which had lost its luster, his emotions became even more complicated.

"Fire Release - Great Fireball Jutsu..."

Uchiha's signature ninjutsu was used, and the several-meter-diameter fireball emitted a scorching aura. Wherever it went, the ground was charred black.

"Water Release - Water Encampment Wall..."

Several Root Ninja used the Water Encampment Wall at the same time. The collision of fire and water created a burst of mist.

The flames were unable to break through the barrier of the Water Encampment Wall and disappeared in no time. At this point, Shisui had already used the Body Flicker Technique to appear in the middle of the Root Ninja.

"Uchiha Style - Gale Sword..."

Wind chakra condensed on the blade of his sword, and the powerful cutting force made the Root Ninja's mask extremely fragile. In just a few seconds, several Root Ninja fell to the ground.

"Entangle him first, consume his chakra as much as possible, and then give him a fatal blow when his chakra is exhausted..."

Danzo's heart was not moved by the death of the Root Ninja. These Ninja were just tools he used to achieve his goals. After the matter was done, he would recruit new people to train.

Danzo's command was given, and the Root Ninja attacking Shisui changed their tactics from trying to kill him to entangling him.

"Do you want to consume my chakra?"

Shisui sneered. If these Root Ninja were as reckless as before, he would have been in trouble. But now that the other side had slowed down their attack, he was not afraid. Being surrounded by people made it impossible for him to use the Body Flicker Technique to its full potential.

As for completely exhausting his chakra, after practicing with Sakura for so long, Shisui's chakra had increased a lot. Moreover, the amount of chakra of Uchiha clan members would increase significantly after activating the Mangekyo Sharingan. It was not an easy task to completely consume his chakra in a short time.

"Fire Release - Great Dragon Fire Technique..."

Dragon-shaped flames spewed out of Shisui's mouth. At the same time, taking advantage of the cover of the flames, Shisui's figure disappeared from the original position and rushed towards Danzo.

Shisui did not intend to kill Danzo. Danzo was always an elder of Konoha, a classmate of the Third Hokage. If he died in Shisui's hands, the relationship between Konoha and the Uchiha clan would instantly drop to freezing point, and he did not want to cause a war between Konoha and the Uchiha clan.

Shisui only intended to take back his right eye and his grandfather's right eye.

"Wind Release - Vacuum Sphere..."

Wind chakra, like bullets, was spewed out of Danzo's mouth. As a classmate of the Third Hokage, Danzo's strength was not weak. However, in Danzo's heart, the power of Wood Release and Sharingan was the strongest. That was why Danzo later chose to transplant the Wood Release arm that was full of Sharingan.

Shisui quickly swung his sword, and the chakra on the blade collided with the wind chakra that Danzo spewed out, making a clanging sound.

"Hmm? These are Aburame clan's insects!"

When he was about to reach Danzo, Shisui suddenly stopped and quickly dodged to the side. The next second, a large group of purple mist appeared in his original position. Shisui's Mangekyo Sharingan saw it clearly. That was not mist at all, but a swarm of micro-sized insects. Only the Aburame clan in Konoha used insects, but these insects were different from those of the Aburame clan. The purple insects were covered in toxins, and the green grass on the ground was corroded like it was splashed with sulfuric acid.

With the Aburame clan member blocking his way, the Root Ninja who had been left behind caught up again. In the Root Base, one Root Ninja after another walked out.

"It seems that they were prepared long ago!"

Shisui's heart sank. It seemed that Danzo had already set his sights on his Mangekyo Sharingan.

"Surrender your Sharingan, and I can give you a painless death. Otherwise!"

Danzo said in a deep voice. He was now worried that Shisui would destroy his Mangekyo Sharingan and cause them to both die together.

"I need your power to protect Konoha, Shisui. You, who inherited Kagami's will, should be able to understand!"

While giving his subordinates a signal with his eyes, Danzo tried to persuade Shisui with a seemingly nostalgic tone.
