Chapter 85 The Blade of Azure Rain - Kakashi's Decision
Within the illusion, layers upon layers of mist intertwine, completely trapping Tobirama in this endlessly looping illusory space.
No matter how much he struggled, or how powerful his multiplicative detonation technique was, it was all futile, like a trapped beast's fight.
The flames from each explosion only reflected the growing emptiness deep within his heart.
Tobirama knew perfectly well that this genjutsu was not something that could be created by an ordinary Sharingan.
Danzo, the masked man, and possibly a third party—the combined genjutsu cast by three or more Sharingan eyes is far beyond what can be broken by one's own power alone.
To completely break this vicious cycle, we can only rely on external assistance.
However, at this moment, he infiltrated Kirigakure alone, thinking that the immortality of the Impure World Reincarnation combined with the Flying Thunder God Technique would allow him to come and go as he pleased.
Unexpectedly, they were still drawn step by step into this carefully laid trap, sinking into a quagmire from which they could not extricate themselves.
Tobirama didn't really care about his own life or death; after all, he was already a dead man detached from life and death.
But what truly worries him is the future of Konoha...
If something were to happen to him here, how would Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others in the village deal with the lurking crises before the end of the world?
In particular, Uchiha Gen's strange curse power is still spreading rampantly in Konoha and even the entire ninja world. If Konoha fails to react in time, it may completely lose the opportunity to deal with it.
For a moment, Tobirama felt incredibly heavy-hearted and fell into an unprecedented silence.
He could only mechanically perform the mutual detonation technique again and again, futilely trying to blast open the cracks in the illusion, but with each explosion,
In the end, all they could do was pull him back to that despairing starting point.
Meanwhile, in the real world, on the streets of Kirigakure, Danzo and Obito stood quietly before Tobirama, who was trapped by genjutsu.
A hint of indifference and mockery flashed in Obito's eyes as he slowly glanced at Danzo beside him: "Danzo, he was your teacher back then, so why don't you seal him away yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Danzo's gaze darkened, and a subtle ripple stirred within him.
He slowly stepped forward, and the Sharingan in his palm opened again, its crimson power gathering and locking onto Tobirama, who was lost in a deep daze.
At this very moment, Tobirama was being tightly bound by the sealing techniques set up around him, completely unaware of it, as if he had been utterly lost in that endless illusion.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure of his teacher, Danzo was suddenly flooded with many memories of the past.
Once upon a time, he was a spirited young man who longed to gain Tobirama's approval and dreamed of one day inheriting the title of Hokage and becoming the guardian of the village.
But now, fate has pushed the two of them, master and disciple, to a completely opposing position, forcing him to personally seal away the teacher he once respected so much.
Danzo frowned slightly, struggling internally, and hesitated for a moment.
However, he quickly regained his usual calm and decisiveness.
Once Tobirama is successfully sealed, and with the immense achievement of controlling Kirigakure, his position will be even more secure upon returning to Konoha. No matter how much Hiruzen Sarutobi tries to stop him, he will not be able to truly harm him.
At this point, Danzo's last trace of hesitation vanished completely.
He slowly raised his hand, coldly preparing to completely seal Tobirama's soul.
Just as his palm was about to touch Tobirama's body!
A swift and cold blade of light suddenly slashed from behind him without warning, and the icy blade stopped precisely at his neck.
Danzo's body stiffened abruptly. He slowly turned his head and saw the face of the person holding the sword behind him: "Kakashi? I didn't expect the reinforcements sent by Konoha to be you..."
Behind him, Obito also fell silent, slightly raising his head with a complex and indescribable look in his eyes: "What are you doing, Kakashi?"
Kakashi did not answer Obito's question, but stared at Danzo in front of him with a calm and resolute gaze.
He gripped the long sword tightly in his hand, the sharp blade pressed against Danzo's throat, his movements without the slightest hesitation.
Kakashi did not want to speak at this time and place, especially in such a complicated and sensitive situation.
The next second, Kakashi quickly freed his other hand and gently pressed down on Tobirama's shoulder.
In that instant, Tobirama's consciousness was suddenly awakened by a familiar yet unfamiliar force. He snapped back to his senses and opened his eyes to see Kakashi standing right in front of him, his face calm and resolute.
Tobirama froze for a moment, staring at Kakashi in disbelief, and managed to utter, "You...Kakashi?"
Kakashi didn't say much, only nodded slightly: "Second Hokage, we need to leave here immediately."
I never expected that the person from Konoha who came to help would be Kakashi...
For a moment, Tobirama was somewhat lost in thought...
"Second generation sir?"
At this moment, Tobirama finally regained full consciousness, his expression a complex mix of emotions. After regaining his senses, he quickly took control of the situation before him.
Standing firm, Tobirama and Kakashi stared at Danzo and Obito before them.
"Kakashi, are you really sure you want to be our enemy?"
Obito remained silent for a moment, his voice hoarse and low, his eyes filled with undisguised disappointment and complexity.
Kakashi looked up and met his gaze for a moment, his eyes filled with only apology...
Tobirama knew very well that now was not the time to ask for details, so he decisively took out the Flying Thunder God Scroll and quickly formed hand seals to activate the technique.
Just as Tobirama and Kakashi were about to leave, Danzo's face suddenly darkened, and a sinister killing intent flashed across his eyes.
With a sudden wave of his hand, the surging chakra within his body erupted abruptly, and countless strange and ferocious withered trees instantly sprouted from the ground, sweeping over Kakashi like sinister venomous snakes!
Despite the fierce and swift attack, Kakashi remained calm and composed.
He swiftly formed hand seals, rapidly gathering chakra, and chanted, "Water Release: Azure Rain!"
In an instant, the previously dry sky suddenly condensed into dense water droplets, which poured down like countless fine needles, instantly enveloping the surroundings in a curtain of rain.
Immediately afterward, Kakashi didn't stop. As he swiftly retreated, he formed hand seals again, and the Wind Release ninjutsu was activated in an instant!
Sharp wind blades, accompanied by icy cold air, swept out, instantly cooling the surrounding area to an extreme temperature. The raindrops from the Azure Rain Technique were immediately frozen, condensing into countless crystalline and sharp ice crystals.
Sharp, frosty blades pierced and solidified the approaching swarm of dead trees. The dead trees were instantly frozen by the frost, greatly reducing their offensive power.
Seeing this, Danzo hurriedly activated his chakra to try to break free of the restraints. However, this brief pause was enough for Tobirama and Kakashi to seize the best opportunity to retreat!
The figures of Tobirama and Kakashi vanished completely from their original positions in the next second, leaving Danzo and Obito standing there in a long and eerie silence.
"Water Release...and Wind Release ninjutsu, to create ice to delay the growth of withered trees?"
Danzo coldly stared at the frost-covered ground, at Kakashi's swordsmanship from that brief moment.
Very sharp.
It's as if your old white teeth have reappeared.
He turned and glanced at the silent Obito, then snorted twice and left.
