The last Airbender: Danzo Sama

The root organization ninjas were pure killing machines, driven solely by the orders of Shimura Danzo. If Danzo commanded, they would even attack the Hokage without hesitation. So, the fate of these common Konoha shinobi was sealed.

With a flurry of shuriken and kunai, more than fifty root ninjas launched their assault. Immediately, they clashed with the returning Konoha shinobi.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!"

"Water Style: Water Wall!"

"Lightning Style: Thunderbolt!"

"Wind Style: Vacuum Sphere!"

"Kill them all! Danzo-sama's orders are absolute. Leave no traitors alive!"

The dense forest erupted in chaos, with shouts, cries, and explosions of ninjutsu filling the air. Trees were shattered, and the ground shook under the force of the jutsu.

Despite being outnumbered, the root ninjas were elite, hardened by countless battles. They quickly began to overpower the Konoha shinobi. Cries of pain echoed as several shinobi fell to the ruthless attacks.

"Damn it," Shisui muttered, caught in a fierce battle with multiple root ninjas. He had to protect Itachi and hold back from killing, which severely limited his power.

Kazuya continued to gather energy from the ongoing battle.

In the midst of the chaos, Kazuya's resolve hardened. Shimura Danzo's ambition for power knew no bounds, and now he was ready to eliminate anyone in his way, including Kazuya.

"Nohara Kazuya..." Danzo's voice was cold. "Betraying the village by aligning with these rebels will lead to your downfall. Step aside, and I'll spare you."

Kazuya remained calm. "Danzo, by turning your blade on village shinobi, you become my enemy. Your actions harm everything I stand to protect."

"You're too naive, Kazuya," Danzo replied. "Where there is light, there must be darkness. Only through balance can the village remain strong. These traitors' deaths will nourish Konoha."

With a swift move, Kazuya struck, sending an elite root ninja flying.

Golden light burst from the fallen root ninja. Kazuya smirked under his mask. Fighting was better than talking.

Shimura Danzo might hesitate, but Kazuya did not.

"Be careful! This guy is powerful!"

"Protect Lord Danzo!"

The elite root ninjas, veterans of many battles, felt a chill. Many had encountered Kazuya before, and the memory haunted them.

In an instant, Kazuya clashed with the root ninjas. His physical prowess was unmatched. Even elite jonin couldn't keep up with his speed and strength.

"Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!"

"Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu!"

"Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!"

The root ninjas tried to keep their distance, launching jutsu after jutsu, but Kazuya was relentless. Each punch sent them flying, their attacks failing to penetrate his defenses.

"Danzo, how long will you hide behind your men?" Kazuya taunted. "Or are you already a relic of the past?"

"Enough!" Danzo roared, forming hand seals rapidly. "Wind Style: Vacuum Waves!"

Wind blades sliced through the air towards Kazuya.

Golden light continued to rain down from Danzo. Under his mask, Kazuya smiled. This was a fight worth having.

"As expected of Danzo," Kazuya said solemnly, mocking. "Your Wind Style jutsu is truly impressive... so terrifying."

Danzo smirked. "You have good eyes, Kazuya. My Wind Style is unmatched in the ninja world. Today, you'll see its true power."

"What!?" Kazuya feigned shock. "I might lose!"

"Hehehe..." Danzo laughed bitterly. "I warned you, but now it's too late."

"Wind Style: Vacuum Waves!"

"Wind Style: Vacuum Sphere!"

"Wind Style: Vacuum Bullets!"

"Wind Style: Shuriken!"

Overwhelming Wind Style jutsu rushed towards Kazuya.
