Battle In The Shadows
After the intense battle with the Root ninjas, Kakashi couldn't help but let out a weary sigh. Despite emerging victorious, the encounter had left him drained, both physically and mentally.
He knew he had to recover his chakra and prepare himself for the challenges lying ahead.
Returning home, Kakashi took the time to rest and replenish his depleted chakra. Whilst also utilizing the moment of respite to carefully plan his next move.
He was well aware that Danzo wouldn't take kindly to the defeat of his subordinates, and he needed to be ready for whatever situation would come his way.
As the night wore on, word of the Root ninja's demise reached Danzo's ears, sparking a blaze of fury within the secretive leader. He felt the sting of humiliation at the hands of Kakashi, vowing to teach the young shinobi a harsh lesson.
Danzo wasted no time in ordering his subordinates to set a trap for Kakashi, leveraging his influence within the village to create a mission that would lure Kakashi into his grasp.
Meanwhile, Kakashi already finished preparing and managed to infiltrate Danzo's base undetected. Using his expert knowledge of the base he already had in his memories.
He navigated the base using shadows and unfrequented pathways, keeping himself as quiet as he could while approaching Danzo's office.
Outside Danzo's office, Kakashi cast a powerful sharingan genjutsu on the guards, ensuring that they wouldn't interfere.
With a silent grace, he slipped into the room, his Sharingan ever vigilant for any signs of danger. His heart pounded in his chest, but he was determined to confront Danzo head-on, putting an end to the corrupt leader's manipulative schemes once and for all.
As he stepped forward, he heard a voice that sent chills down his spine. "Kakashi, you've come to finish what you started, I presume," Danzo's tone was cold and calculated, his eyes glaring at the intruder.
In a flash, Kakashi sprung into action, wielding his chakra blade with deadly precision. He aimed a swift strike at Danzo, intending to disarm the manipulative leader.
But Danzo was no pushover. He skillfully dodged the attack, retaliating with a barrage of punches aided with Wind-style.
Kakashi is managing to deflect most of them with his chakra blade and the Hatake style, but one of Danzo's fierce attacks grazes his arm, drawing Kakashi's blood.
The two opponents circled each other, their eyes locking. With each move, Kakashi demonstrated the strength of his resolve, fueled by a desire to protect the village he held dear.
Danzo's expression is contorted with arrogance and frustration and experience as he unleashes a torrent of jutsu. However Kakashi is also relentless, parrying each attack with precision and skill using his new arsenal of jutsu.
The room filled with the clash of metal and the crackle of chakra as the two shinobi engaged in a duel that would determine the fate of each other's lives.
"I won't let you hide in the shadows any longer, Danzo. The village deserves that much" , Kakashi declared, determination burning in his eyes.
As the battle raged on, Kakashi's new range of jutsu and Danzo's injured right arm started to play in Kakashi's favor. With a renewed surge of strength, he delivered a powerful strike, severly injuring Danzo's right arm once again.
Despite the heavy injury, Danzo manages to push Kakashi back, hastily exiting the room to create a more favourable battlefield.
Danzo is furious and it's fueling his determination to strike back at the young shinobi.
During his exit Danzo left a severe wound on Kakashi's chest.
