Chapter 233 : Mangekyō Sharingan?

Even in this dire moment, Danzo still had die-hard loyalists protecting him.

One of them was Hyuga Yodo, and the other was Uchiha Ryosuke, both trying to shield Danzo in mid-air.

The strong wind whipped against their faces, adding a grim edge to their expressions.

However, their hearts were consumed by despair, devoid of any hope for survival.

They had initially thought that when the Four Purple Flame Formation was dismantled, it would be their chance to escape.

But to their dismay, Kazuhiko had been concealing his true strength all along. Suddenly, a stronger force pulled them from behind, shattering both their physical defense and the last vestige of hope in their hearts.

They no longer entertained the thought of evading Kazuhiko's onslaught.

"Danzo... sir! It appears... we... we can't escape today!"

"No... I refuse to die! I am the prodigy of the Hyuga clan! Ah..."

The Sword of light descended, dominating their entire field of vision!

The two were swiftly cleaved in half by the sharpness and searing heat of the light Sword, blood freely flowing, no different from their fallen comrades.

Yet, they had managed to intercept part of the attack aimed at Danzo behind them.

At that moment, Danzo swiftly removed the bandages covering his right eye.

It was the Mangekyō Sharingan!

The arc resembling a four-cornered sickle manifested in Danzo's eyes. Finally, his ultimate murderous intent surfaced, his last act of defiance.

"Kazuhiko, this is my final gambit, either you perish or I survive!"

"Fairy Glitter!"

Instantly, all of Danzo's chakra poured into his Mangekyō Sharingan.

Mangekyō's emblem materialized before him, and a colossal ring of light loomed over Kazuhiko.

With curious eyes, Kazuhiko witnessed a potent beam of light descending upon him from the sky.

"Excellent! Finally, something interesting!"

"It was worth it for me to let you linger until the end!"

"Danzo, you did not disappoint!"

War and excitement filled Kazuhiko's gaze. The one-sided slaughter had wearied him slightly, but Danzo had finally brought him a surprise.

Kazuhiko grasped his Light Sword firmly with both hands, facing the onslaught of beams in the sky. The colossal God of light loomed overhead, its radiant Sword poised to strike. With determination, he unleashed his technique:

"Rasenryū Sword Art!"

A torrent of infinite golden light coalesced in his hands, meeting the incoming barrage head-on. In that moment, all other light seemed to fade away, leaving only the intense brilliance of the clash.

The hill was bathed in a blinding white glow, as if the heavens themselves had unleashed their power upon the earth. Even the creatures of the deep mountains were drawn to witness the spectacle, their eyes fixed upon the distant hill.

Then came the deafening roar that shook the very ground:

"Boom boom boom!!! Boom boom!!!!!!"

Terrified, the animals scattered in every direction, fleeing from the overwhelming force.

As the echoes of the roar subsided, the hill lay transformed into a deep crater, surrounded by desolation. The once vibrant foliage now lay buried beneath layers of mud and rubble.

Though shielded by thick layers of Chakra, the Uzumaki within their cocoons felt the searing heat of the cataclysmic clash. As the chaos settled, they emerged to survey the aftermath.

"Adamantine Sealing Chains, release!"

One by one, the Uzumaki broke free from their bindings, their gazes filled with astonishment.

"Where... where are we? Is this...?" Fumito's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Is this where we were sealed away?" Another voiced the question, uncertainty clouding their expressions.

The elder Uzumaki regarded them solemnly, unable to provide a definite answer. They stood amidst the remnants of the battlefield, unsure of their newfound surroundings.

************************

Gazing at the distant mountains and rivers, thriving with verdant foliage, while their own hill lay transformed into a deep pit.

"What a fierce battle to bring such change..."

"Is this truly the capability of a human being?... Truly..."

Their eyes were filled with incredulity, only now grasping a glimpse of Kazuhiko's strength.

"Is Kazuhiko-sama alright?!"

A sudden loud shout jolted them back to reality.

"Yes, Kazuhiko-sama! What of him!?"

"Hurry, search around! Lord clan head!"

In an instant, they dashed off anxiously, scouring for their leader.

In case Kazuhiko was gravely wounded, they needed to procure medical aid swiftly.

Before long, the third elder ascended from the pit, traversed a distance, and reached a higher ground.

Joy gleamed in his eyes, "Lord Kazuhiko! I spot him, Lord Kazuhiko is there!"

His cry rallied the other clan members who hurried there with excitement.

Meanwhile, Kazuhiko observed Danzo, his body akin to shattered porcelain.

At this moment, Danzo's meridians lay shattered, his internal organs ruptured, clinging to his last breath. None could save him but for the Senzu beans in Kazuhiko's possession.

"How did you obtain your Mangekyō Sharingan?" Kazuhiko inquired curiously.

Danzo, with clouded eyes, fixed his gaze on Kazuhiko, just as the latter presumed he wouldn't respond.

Suddenly, he spoke, "And what manner of ocular technique do your eyes possess?"

With death imminent, Kazuhiko had no intention to conceal, "Mine is the Rinnegan, the eyes of the legendary Sage of Six Paths."

"How did you acquire this Mangekyō? And why do you have only one?"
