Chapter 227.1 : Danzo Revealed!

In the moonlight, Uchiha Madara emerged from the underground base, a smirk playing on her lips.

This scene was unlike any other.

Once, Izuna wasn't his only younger brother.

As a teenager, he awakened the Sharingan when another younger brother fell in battle!

Yet, his father showed no sorrow then; instead, he was astonished by the emergence of the Sharingan.

How absurd!

For those from other worlds, the darkness and brutality of the Hokage world were once again shocking!

At that moment, Tanjirou felt a shiver down his spine!

Though young, he had witnessed demons slaughtering his mother and younger siblings!

But that was merely a palpable hatred!

He knew his duty—to slay the Demon King. It would not only avenge his kin but also make the world a better place!

Unlike the Hokage world before him!

Children forced into war, with no solace in the deaths of their comrades.

War and blood intertwined, pain and deceit rampant, and treachery thrived in the shadows!

A world devoid of light!

Apart from power levels, the darkness rivaled even that of the DC multiverse!

Meanwhile, Uchiha Itachi in the cave had risen to his feet.

He glanced at his partner Kisame and remarked:

"Since we've reached this point in the broadcast, everything in the next episode will unfold. I must return to Konoha."

"Will you be going, Kisame?"

Kisame grinned and rose, his actions speaking volumes.

"Hehe, Itachi, you've been lingering around Konoha Village for this moment."

Itachi offered no explanation, seemingly consenting to Kisame's observation.

Then, they both dashed away swiftly!

["The life of Itachi continues, but only when facing his younger brother and Shisui, whom he regards as an elder brother, will he reveal his true self."]

[The screen fades into the dark night, with Itachi and Shisui teaming up for an act.]

[However, the two stumbled upon a clash between Ninja and Anbu!]

[An Anbu operative holds crucial information regarding a traitor and intends to deliver it to the Hokage, but the ninja seeks to intercept the report to silence the Anbu.]

[Shisui resolved to assist the Anbu and conveyed his intentions to Itachi:

"Ninjas are the silent guardians of peace in the dark of night, but true peace does not stem from violence!" At this moment, Itachi, who was wavering in his convictions, found his resolve strengthened.

His composure remained unwavering, unaffected by the surroundings, yet internally, he felt a sense of disorientation witnessing this exchange.

The standoff unfolding before him offered a glimpse into the deep-rooted conflict between the Uchiha clan and Konoha. However, Shisui's counsel was absent this time.

"Influenced by Shisui and the teachings of the Third Hokage, he chose the path of an Anbu operative."

"Itachi aspired to be a protector of peace, as Shisui had described, but ended up becoming a double agent embedded within the Uchiha clan and the Third Hokage's inner circle."

"Years later, simmering resentment within the Uchiha clan erupted into a full-fledged coup d'état."]

Within the confines of the Hokage's office, Tsunade and Jiraiya exchanged glances, both reflecting shock in their eyes.

They had anticipated that the Uchiha massacre harbored a clandestine truth, but the magnitude of it surpassed their expectations.

["As the conspiracy unfolds, Shisui makes a pivotal decision. Driven by his allegiance to the village, he confronts Konoha's higher echelons."

"He reveals the existence of an illusion within his Mangekyō Sharingan, known as 'Kotoamatsukami,' capable of permanently altering a person's will."

"This revelation aims to quell the inevitable bloodshed of the rebellion."]

The illusion that permanently alters one's will?

Even in the Shinigami world, Aizen finds himself taken aback by this revelation.

In some respects, Kotoamatsukami seem less intimidating than his own Kyōka Suigetsu.

But this ability has the potential to enslave anyone indefinitely, ensuring unwavering obedience.

However, Aizen speculates that there must be limitations to its effectiveness; otherwise, it would render its user invincible.

Hokage World!

In this moment, myriad individuals were left in disbelief, even the seasoned actors exhibited profound fear!

Just envisage, should Shisui from the Konoha arrive as a negotiator, only to unleash the Kotoamatsukami!

In that scenario, the kage of a village would fall entirely under Konoha's control, with no apprehension of the opposing party regaining consciousness!

In this matter, Terumi Mei held significant sway!

Similarly, even Uchiha Madara was compelled to acknowledge the overwhelming power of Shisui's Mangekyō!

Yet, Madara found himself somewhat perplexed. If such a potent illusion existed, why then did the Uchiha clan still meet its demise?

["The senior figures of Konoha acquiesced, yet in the subsequent moment, the scene shifts to Danzo extracting Shisui's left eye before a temple!"

"Shisui hadn't anticipated that Danzo's eye bandages concealed Sharingan!"

"He never fathomed that the enemy was still a master of the Izanagi Technique, and ultimately, the left eye was forfeited through a clandestine scheme!"

"Simultaneously, on the screen, exposition regarding the nature of the Izanagi Technique is provided!"

"It exacts a toll of Sharingan blindness, and all harm inflicted upon the caster, including death, may be transmuted into illusion!"

"Moreover, the caster's assaults and other favorable occurrences are converted into tangible jutsu. It is a technique seamlessly toggling between dreams and reality!"

At this juncture, countless viewers wore expressions of utter astonishment!

They were not merely taken aback by Danzo's treachery but also by the revelation of the Izanagi Technique!
