Chapter 59 - CHAPTER 59

In Danzo's right palm, there is a Sharingan, and even his entire right forearm is covered in scarlet Sharingan eyes.

The wrinkled skin is piled up around these implanted Sharingan. At this moment, with the constant rotation of these raised eyes, it looks extremely grotesque and twisted.

Coupled with Danzo's pale right arm, the image is chilling to the extreme!

In the shinobi world, some faint-hearted viewers watching this scene had already gripped their hair and started screaming. Even the bravest among them felt their scalps go numb.

"Sha... Sharingan!"

Sasuke Uchiha stood frozen. Ever since the Uchiha clan was annihilated, he hadn't seen so many Sharingan in one place.

But in the very next moment—rage!

Overwhelming rage!

Explosive fury!

Pure, boiling hatred!

His eyes began to morph—his three tomoe spinning wildly, with a faint tendency to merge into one singular pattern.

...

"This..."

Jiraiya and Tsunade exchanged glances and saw shock mirrored in each other's eyes.

They were both direct disciples of a Hokage, and privy to certain classified intel. They knew Shimura Danzo had done this for the power of the Sharingan.

But…

This was too horrifying!

And the more you think about it, the scarier it gets!

No matter how you sliced it, Danzo was clearly linked to the fall of the Uchiha clan.

...

In the Red Team's viewing area, the eyes of the Hyuga clan members widened in disbelief, the elders included.

They all stared at the screen, looking at Danzo's grotesque arm full of transplanted eyes, their expressions dark and grim.

They were the other great dojutsu clan of Konoha.

Danzo's right arm was now a grotesque trophy case—but what about his right eye?

What about the eye that was always covered in bandages?

Could it be... a Byakugan?

Over the years, many Hyuga had died in battle, and not all their bodies were recovered...

"He... that bastard!"

Hinata clenched her teeth so tightly the grinding was audible to those nearby.

Upon hearing her, several of them had eyes filled with killing intent!

...

"Pathetic..."

Orochimaru scoffed disdainfully.

He'd known that Danzo had transplanted Sharingan into his arm.

But in Orochimaru's eyes, this use of the Sharingan was laughable—low-level, unrefined.

Due to poor blood circulation in the arm, these Sharingan were barely functional. Forget genjutsu—they probably couldn't even enhance vision or perception.

At most, they could trigger some self-destruct jutsu.

What a waste of premium experimental materials!

Orochimaru sighed in frustration, deeply annoyed at the misuse of these precious eyes. If he had access to this many Sharingan, he would've cloned several Itachis or Sasukes, fine-tuned their bodies, and found the perfect vessel for a corpse-less reincarnation.

Such potential... wasted!

...

On the screen, after Danzo unwrapped the bandages from his arm, he left the bandage on his head untouched. Then, after weaving a few hand signs, he charged straight at Sasuke Uchiha.

"That jutsu...!"

"Izanagi!"

Uchiha Itachi's eyes widened in alarm. He hadn't expected Danzo to know this forbidden Uchiha technique!

No wonder he implanted so many Sharingan in his arm!

Itachi couldn't afford to think further. In the video, Danzo had already closed the distance and launched a punch at Sasuke.

Boom!

The punch struck Sasuke in the abdomen—Danzo felt the impact and knew it landed.

His expression brightened with triumph... until he saw it.

A massive purple skeleton had emerged from Sasuke's body and blocked the attack.

In the next instant, the skeletal form extended a giant hand that seized Danzo tightly.

Sasuke's furious voice rang out:

"Did Uchiha Itachi destroy our clan under Konoha's orders?!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of thunderous explosions erupted. And then... Sasuke froze.

Stunned by the very words he had spoken!

Itachi... destroyed the clan... on Konoha's orders?

The idea shattered something inside him. His wildly spinning eyes slowed down. His star-like pupils dimmed.

Sasuke Uchiha collapsed backward.

Swish!

A figure appeared behind him and caught him gently.

Itachi looked down at Sasuke in his arms, then up at the screen again.

Susanoo.

Itachi knew this technique all too well.

A power unlocked only through the Mangekyō Sharingan. The third ability unique to those eyes.

But what he saw in Sasuke's eyes… wasn't just a normal Mangekyō.

...

On-screen, as Sasuke continued pressing Danzo, his grip tightened, blood spewed from Danzo's mouth, and he coughed violently.

Then Danzo said with a mocking grin:

"I didn't expect Uchiha Itachi to be that kind of man... it seems to me, Sasuke, you were always the one he treasured most!"

"Damn it!"

Sasuke exploded with rage.

His Susanoo evolved, growing rapidly until it reached its first complete form.

A gigantic, skeletal humanoid towered over the battlefield, half-formed yet terrifying. It radiated an aura straight out of Jigoku.

The purple chakra burned like ghostly fire.

Two horns protruded from its skull-like forehead, and a void-like black hole formed in its nose. Twin glowing golden eyes stared from its sockets, like gateways to the Yellow Springs.

Anyone who gazed too long felt their soul tremble.

Danzo was still caught in Susanoo's crushing grip. Its massive, steel-like palm locked him in place.

"Uchiha Itachi told you a secret... he betrayed Konoh—"

CRACK!

Danzo didn't finish.

He was crushed.

Blood exploded in a spray across the screen!

...

"He got... crushed?!"

The Fourth Raikage, A, was left slack-jawed as he watched Danzo's body burst like a watermelon.

He knew who Danzo was—leader of Konoha's Root, and a power broker whose influence rivaled the Hokage's.

Now?

Obliterated by some brat from Konoha?!

A glanced at the unconscious Sasuke in Itachi's arms. This kid...

He was something else.

Especially that monstrous purple thing...

He still remembered—wasn't this the same brat who would chop off one of his arms in the future?

...

Sour...

Sour...

So sour...

Onoki and Terumi Mei locked eyes, and both could see the bitterness behind each other's forced smiles.

They were in the same boat.

Both lacked top-tier successors. Aside from a few aging veterans, the villages practically ran on fumes.

Then look at Konoha...

Just look at them!

As if one Uzumaki Naruto who could smash gods wasn't enough... now there was Uchiha Sasuke.

Just those eyes alone… terrifying.

And that skeleton?

Oh, Onoki recognized it instantly!

Even if the colors were off, even if Sasuke's control wasn't perfect, that technique was unmistakable.

From his generation, everyone knew the ancient saying:

"When Susanoo and Buddha walk together, four nations fall."

And that... that was Susanoo.

It nullified all physical attacks.

It resisted all ninjutsu.

Unless you got inside it, you couldn't touch the user at all!

While everyone was still reeling from Sasuke's newfound might, something happened—

Danzo, who had clearly been obliterated, suddenly reappeared behind Sasuke.

He moved with silent precision.

Drawing a kunai, he lunged at Sasuke's back.

No...

He wasn't aiming at Sasuke directly—

He was aiming for the heart of Susanoo itself.
