Chapter 118: Eye Snatching

That guy Hiruzen, he's tangled up with Akatsuki.

Just like Hanzo and Akatsuki back in the day.

When he heard this news, Danzo immediately realized that his golden opportunity had arrived.

If the Third Hokage could fight Akatsuki to a standstill, he could then step in to clean up the mess and emerge as the biggest winner.

How wonderful that would be.

For many years, Danzo has never doubted one thing:

He is more suited to the position of Hokage than Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Only he can make Konoha great again, restoring the glory of the First Hokage's era.

And this time, it's the perfect opportunity to oust the Third Hokage.

In such anticipation.

"Before we understand the situation, Root cannot act."

Danzo looked at his subordinates and said solemnly, "Root is the last stronghold of Konoha. When Konoha is at the brink of survival, only we can save the village."

"Yes, Danzo-sama!"

Everyone responded in unison, showing absolute loyalty.

At the Uchiha compound.

Shisui, accompanied by A, was patrolling outside the Medical Department, unknowingly walking into the shadow of a corner.

After confirming that there were no enemies around and no clan members noticing him.

"A."

Shisui called softly, and A immediately ran over, merging with him.

The next second, Shisui activated his Mangekyou Sharingan and quickly formed hand seals.

Boom.

He created a shadow clone.

Whoosh.

The clone jumped over the wall and headed towards the Hokage building at the fastest speed.

Shisui was very worried about the Third Hokage's safety.

If something happened to him, the village would really be finished. He couldn't just sit back and do nothing.

In the situation where he couldn't leave the clan compound, this was all he could do.

What Shisui didn't know was.

On the roof of the Medical Department, Fugaku watched Shisui's shadow clone leave with deep eyes, but did not stop him.

Sigh.

He sighed.

The Third Hokage personally requested the Uchiha to help. He couldn't refuse to give him any face.

In that case, letting Shisui send out a shadow clone should be... enough.

In the midst of the chaos.

Obito leisurely walked to a remote location in the northwest corner of Konoha.

This was an ordinary mountainside, overgrown with weeds, not a place where people would come.

Heh.

Obito sneered, directly activated Kamui, and walked through the mountainside.

After walking a dozen meters forward and entering the mountain, a secret room appeared.

At a glance, Obito saw several Anbu, fully focused on their guard, protecting a blond brat.

Uzumaki Naruto.

Found him.

His eyes narrowed, just about to make a move, when a sturdy tree suddenly attacked from the side, binding his body tightly.

Wood Release: Silent Killing Bind.

It was Tenzo's move.

"Again with this boring technique, don't you know that your efforts are in vain?"

Obito glanced at Tenzo and shook his head.

"That remains to be seen." A cold voice sounded behind him.

The next second.

Zzz.

With a sound like a thousand birds chirping, accompanied by a dazzling light, Kakashi's Chidori was faster than lightning, instantly piercing Obito's heart.

"Such speed."

Obito turned his head and complimented, "Kakashi, it seems your strength has improved."

"You..."

Kakashi was shocked. The other party was clearly

pierced by his Chidori, yet he could still talk as if nothing had happened. How was this possible?

Obito saw Kakashi's surprise and declared coldly and arrogantly:

"Unfortunately, all your attacks are useless in front of me, Uchiha Madara."

Uchiha Madara.

Upon hearing the name spoken by the masked man, Kakashi and Tenzo, among others, were shocked and stunned on the spot.

Seizing the opportunity, Obito's right eye stared straight at Kakashi, casting a genjutsu directly at him.

Although his genjutsu was not as powerful as Shisui's Kotoamatsukami, it was a genuine Mangekyou Sharingan, capable of controlling the Nine-Tails with just the power of a single eye.

Crushing the Three-Tomoe.

Whoosh.

Kakashi was immediately trapped in the genjutsu, suffering immense mental torment.

Thud.

He quickly fell to one knee in front of Obito, unable to move, his entire outfit soaked with cold sweat.

"Captain!"

Seeing this, Tenzo and the others rushed up to provide support, surrounding Obito.

Three Anbu stood at the east, south, and west of Obito, simultaneously forming hand seals. Their chakra resonated with each other, instantly forming a green pyramid.

Ninja Art: Three-Way Seal.

Obito was trapped inside.

No matter who the enemy was, without understanding their abilities, sealing techniques were always a reliable method.

The sealing technique performed by these three Anbu in perfect coordination, even the Hokage would struggle to break free in a short time.

However.

Obito simply walked through the green pyramid, ignoring their seal.

"I told you before, it's all in vain."

Obito mimicked Madara's voice, displaying that arrogant attitude in front of Tenzo and the others.

He might not be able to beat Itachi or Shisui.

But to deal with these Konoha Anbu, wasn't it a piece of cake?

At this moment.

From the horrified eyes of Tenzo and the others, Obito regained his long-lost confidence.

"Retreat!"

Tenzo shouted angrily, knowing that they had underestimated the enemy's strength and were far from being a match for Uchiha Madara.

As soon as his words fell.

He picked up Naruto from the side, trying to escape from here.

Whoosh.

Obito simply raised his hand, and a sturdy tree shot out from his sleeve, hitting Tenzo and throwing him against the wall, creating a large hole.

"Just Wood Release, who can't do that?"

Obito muttered to himself, his body once again erupted with a large amount of Wood Release chakra, transforming into a small forest, covering the entire secret room.

Several Anbu were easily knocked down by him, either dead or injured.

Then.

Obito reached out for Naruto.

But just when he thought he had succeeded, the Naruto in his hand "bang" turned into a wooden dummy.

Because.

This was a trap set by the Sixth Squad of the Anbu, under the orders of the Third Hokage.

"Damn, no wonder I always felt something was off. Did Jūzō's information turn out to be wrong?"

Obito looked grim.

He had underestimated the people of Konoha again.

However.

Since he was here, he couldn't return empty-handed, could he?

Obito looked at Kakashi again.

"I was originally too lazy to deal with a minor character like you, but you've repeatedly ruined my plans. Since you're so eager to die, I'll grant your wish."

As he spoke, he reached out towards Kakashi.

Kakashi was still under the control of the genjutsu, unable to resist, and could only wait for death with a face as pale as death.

But surprisingly.

Uchiha Madara didn't kill him, but reached out and took Kakashi's Sharingan.

"Kakashi, although this eye was a gift I once gave you, it's time for you to return it to me

now."

Obito coldly watched Kakashi, silently saying in his heart.

Then.

Kakashi's left eye shed a line of bloody tears, and he fell to the ground, unconscious.

Just then.

Boom.

The mountain wall was blasted open, and the Anbu reinforcements sent by the Third Hokage arrived late.

"Hmph."

Obito snorted disdainfully, too lazy to play with these guys any longer. He immediately took Kakashi's Sharingan and disappeared using Kamui.

He would replace his left eye with this one, gathering both Kamui, achieving true invincibility.

After that, he would no longer have to fear Uchiha Itachi.
