Under the rain, four figures stood.
Danzo looked at them with a gloomy expression and said in a deep voice, "You Takigakure Village fellows are looking for death!"
"Heh," Ren sneered, casually swung the long blade in his hand twice, and nodded, "How Takigakure Village is doing doesn't need to concern a dying man like you. Now…"
At this point, Ren's gaze turned cold, and he swung the long blade forward!
"You should worry about yourself first!"
Seeing this, Danzo did not sit idly by. Instead, he pulled out two smoke bombs from his body and threw them on the ground, instantly creating a large cloud of white smoke. Ren, holding his blade, rushed into the smoke without any hesitation, directly swinging his blade to the side.
"What?!"
Danzo's pained voice came from the smoke. The next moment, Number One in the distance also made his move.
"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
A gust of wind blew, and the white smoke immediately dissipated, revealing Ren standing with his blade and Danzo not far away, clutching his bleeding right arm.
"Damn it, how is this possible?!"
Danzo's face was full of disbelief. His stealth methods were not bad, so how could the opponent accurately attack him in that situation?
"Heh, you guess."
Ren raised an eyebrow and chuckled.
"A sensory Ninja…"
Danzo was not stupid. After calming down, he quickly discovered the problem, which made his face even uglier.
Takigakure Village had really gone all out to assassinate him this time: a Kakuzu who had nominally defected, and a Jinchuriki. It seemed these guys had been planning this for a long time.
Thinking of this, a look of determination appeared on Danzo's face. He pulled out a Kunai from his body, then began to form hand signs with both hands, looking at the several people in front of him, and gritted his teeth.
"It's not that easy to kill me!"
After finishing the hand signs, he channeled Wind Release Chakra into his mouth, then spat it onto the Kunai in his hand, where it attached, forming a constantly fluctuating blade.
Wind Release: Vacuum Blade!
"Indeed, it's not easy."
Ren had no intention of wasting more words with him. He directly nodded to Kakuzu next to him. Understanding, the latter immediately rushed out with him, the two of them, one on the left and one on the right, attacking Danzo!
Lightning Illusion: Lightning Pillar!"
Ren did not pick up a weapon to engage Danzo in close combat. Instead, he formed hand signs midway, and Chakra emanated from him.
"Uh!"
Danzo, who had intended to launch the first attack to gain the initiative, suddenly found that Ren's entire body lit up with dazzling white light, instantly blinding his unguarded single eye. It seemed impossible to continue attacking.
In this situation, he could only leap backward, while simultaneously throwing a large number of Kunai and Shuriken in all directions to ensure his safety. When he opened his eyes again, he found that the two people in front of him had disappeared at some point, which made him, being vigilant, pause.
Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from behind him. He subconsciously dodged to the side, only to see a fist shoot out from behind. If he had dodged any slower, it would have been his chest that was pierced.
Following those black threads, Danzo quickly spotted Kakuzu not far away. Although he didn't know when the opponent had gotten behind him, it didn't prevent him from counterattacking.
"Trying to leave? Stay!"
Seeing that his attack missed, Kakuzu immediately prepared to retract his fist, but Danzo naturally wouldn't let him succeed. He directly swung his blade to cut the connecting black threads.
The long blade formed by condensed Wind Release Chakra was exceptionally sharp. The black threads it touched immediately snapped. By the time Kakuzu retracted the black threads, the fist at the very end had already disappeared, leaving only black tentacles dancing in the air. The fist, meanwhile, lay quietly in the distance, trampled under Danzo's foot.
Seeing this, Kakuzu's face immediately darkened, and a slow killing intent appeared in his eyes as he looked at Danzo.
"Heh, a Bounty Hunter, huh…"
Danzo looked at the opponent with a hint of mockery, and at the same time, he stepped on the hand under his foot twice more. This blatant act of provocation immediately made Kakuzu unbearable. He was about to have the masked monsters behind him launch Ninjutsu attacks, but he also worried about his own hand, so he could only find another way to resolve it.
Kakuzu retreated a few steps. Two masked monsters immediately transformed into a large number of black threads and burrowed back into his body, but they did not retract into his back. Instead, they appeared at Kakuzu's shoulders, and his arms separated segment by segment, connected in the middle by black threads. At the same time, a large amount of black threads also gushed from his mouth, looking exceptionally terrifying.
"Hm?"
Seeing Kakuzu in this state, Danzo's pupils immediately contracted. He took two steps forward, ready to launch the first attack.
But Kakuzu's speed was even faster. He slapped the ground with his remaining right hand, and instantly his hand disappeared into the ground. Danzo, not far away, felt a tremor under his feet. Feeling something was wrong, he quickly leaped into the air. Sure enough, a fist burst out from under the ground, then quickly retracted.
Just as Danzo was feeling relieved, a large number of black threads suddenly burst out from Kakuzu's body in the distance, densely scattering in the air, and then, under Kakuzu's control, they all plunged into the earth.
Not good!
Danzo's face suddenly changed as he recalled the previous scene. Having just landed, he leaped up again. As expected, a large number of black threads again burst from underground. Danzo looked down, only to see that within a radius of ten meters, there were upright black threads, looking like a black needle thicket at a glance. If he were to fall in, the consequences would surely be dire.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Great Sphere!"
As his body began to descend, Danzo no longer cared about the Vacuum Blade. He directly threw away the Kunai and then quickly formed hand signs with one hand. Under the threat of a life-and-death crisis, his hand sign speed was more than a little faster than usual. A white wind mass shot out, and the recoil temporarily stopped his downward trend. After a brief pause in the air, he continued to fall.
At this moment, the gigantic wind mass had already rushed into the black threads and exploded. In an instant, an empty space appeared within the black needle thicket.
Danzo's face immediately lit up with joy at this sight. Just as he was about to land, the remaining black threads around him suddenly shot out, directly binding Danzo, who had briefly relaxed his guard, and suspended him in mid-air.
"Hm?!"
Danzo only then reacted and immediately began to struggle violently, but found that these black threads were exceptionally tough, making him unable to move at all.
Suddenly, Danzo's pupils contracted, and his gaze turned to the side. He saw Ren appear there at some point, holding a Kunai in his hand, slowly approaching him.
Seeing this, Danzo immediately struggled even more frantically, but it was useless.
Ren stopped when he got close, raised his left hand, and the Kunai held in his palm suddenly had streaks of electricity constantly moving on it, then he violently threw it!
"No!"
Under Danzo's unwilling gaze, the Kunai directly pierced into his glabella, and the electricity it carried instantly erupted.
Unbearable pain immediately swept through Danzo's entire body, but the pain didn't last long. The passage of electricity directly destroyed his brain. His pupils had just widened before they dimmed, losing all signs of life. His struggling arm also drooped, and his life dissipated.
The Darkness of Shinobi, Danzo Shimura, is dead!
