Chapter 20 Third Hokage vs. Danzo

In the training field, two figures collided and crossed paths at an abnormal speed.

Each time the Vajra Ruyi Staff struck the wooden right arm, it produced a deafening explosion.

The third generation leaped back, and the Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand suddenly extended, aiming straight for Danzo's throat.

To everyone's surprise, Danzo made no attempt to dodge, allowing the iron rod to pierce his neck.

However, the body that should have collapsed, spraying blood, vanished in the next instant.

The sudden turn of events startled the Third Generation.

At this moment, the real Danzo emerged from the shadow of the Third Hokage, his gray-white right arm coiling around his old friend's waist like a giant python.

"Wood Release: Wood Splintering Technique!"

Sharp wooden splinters erupted from his arm, and the Third Generation let out a muffled groan as fragments of armor mixed with drops of blood splattered everywhere.

However, the next second, the "third generation" that was pierced by the wooden spike turned into a wooden stake, while the real figure appeared ten meters away.

Blood gushed from the wound in his abdomen, and the Third Hokage couldn't help but smile wryly: "I was a little careless."

"Sarutobi, you are no longer my match."

Danzo's Sharingan in his chest gradually closed, and his illusory body gradually solidified.

He stroked the closed eye and couldn't help but grin maliciously: "See? This is immortality! Even if you kill me, I can be resurrected!"

The three representatives calmed down.

As a veteran who had lived through the Warring States period, he immediately recognized the technique—the secret technique unique to the Uchiha clan.

"Izanagi..."

Danzo laughed maniacally, forming hand seals: "Looks like you're not so old as to lose your memory, are you? You actually figured it out just like that!"

With that, Danzo launched another attack on the Third Hokage.

However, the rhythm of the battle suddenly changed.

Because of Izanagi, Danzo completely abandoned defense, and every move he made was a suicidal attack.

When the third generation's Fire Dragon Flame Bullet engulfed him, his charred body was reborn in the flames;

When the magic staff smashed the skull, a new Danzo emerged from the shadows.

"It's useless, Hiruzen." The resurrected Danzo licked his newly grown fingers. "I can resurrect an unlimited number of times, but you..."

He looked at the Third Hokage's bleeding abdomen: "How much chakra is left?"

When the Third Hokage killed Danzo for the third time, his breathing was already disordered.

The Third Generation tried his best to calm his disordered breathing and said sarcastically, "Not much, but enough to deal with you."

"You still like to be stubborn!"

Danzo quickly formed hand seals, and a piercing sound of wind breaking through his knuckles rang out.

He took a deep breath, his chest bulging, and then exhaled forcefully: "Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!"

Dozens of compressed wind blades tore through the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound.

These translucent air blades swept past the Third Generation's body at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

It was instantly cut into several segments.

Amidst the splattering of blood and flesh, the severed bodies didn't even have time to spit out blood.

With a soft sound, the mangled corpse suddenly turned into white smoke and disappeared.

"Shadow clones?!"

Danzo's pupils contracted sharply, and his Sharingan began to spin wildly.

The ground beneath their feet suddenly trembled violently, and the Third Hokage's deep voice echoed from underground: "Earth Release: Great River of Earth!"

"Rumble--"

The solid earth instantly transformed into a surging, yellowish-brown torrent, engulfing Danzo like a raging torrent bursting its banks.

The viscous mud, mixed with gravel, carried Danzo downstream with tremendous force.

His body tumbled in the mud, his right arm, reinforced with interstellar cells, grasping in vain, unable to find any foothold.

At the end of the mudslide, the true form of the third generation had been waiting for a long time.

The old man raised his right hand high above his head, his palm gleaming with terrifying lightning.

A blinding arc of electricity leaped between his fingers, crackling and popping, ionizing the surrounding air and giving it a scorching smell.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Spear!"

As Danzo was swept towards him by the mudslide, the Third Hokage swung his arm and slashed down without hesitation.

The three-meter-long lightning spear drew a perfect arc and struck Danzo hard.

"boom--!!!"

Amidst the deafening explosion, lightning and mudflow reacted violently.

The conductivity of Earth Release amplifies the power of lightning exponentially, causing the dazzling blue-white sphere to expand instantly.

Danzo's body convulsed violently amidst the electric light, and his skin carbonized and peeled off at a visible speed.

Finally, with a muffled bang, it exploded into countless charred fragments.

"Ha ha......"

The three generations knelt on one knee, beads of sweat the size of soybeans seeping from their foreheads.

His once abundant chakra was now almost depleted, and every breath was accompanied by a stinging pain in his lungs.

This combination technique, which he could normally execute with ease, almost completely drained his remaining chakra at this moment.

“You’re too old, Sarutobi. You can’t handle this little bit of exercise.”

However, the next second, Danzo reappeared unharmed in front of the Third Hokage.

Upon seeing Danzo's unharmed figure, the old Hokage's fingertips began to tremble slightly.

Have they run out of ideas?

At this point, Danzo's right arm had become completely lignified, and wriggling cells could be seen under the skin.

But Danzo remained unfazed, still shouting, "Let me see what other tricks the legendary 'Professor of Ninjutsu' has up his sleeve!"

However, the Third Generation wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then suddenly grinned and said, "Then I'll make a fool of myself."

The Third Hokage then pointed two fingers at Danzo and shouted, "Monkey Demon, Transformation: Vajra Prison Wall!"

The Ruyi Jingu Bang suddenly rose from Danzo's feet and instantly split and multiplied, transforming into four Vajra walls that trapped Danzo within.

Danzo scoffed dismissively, his wooden right arm swelling and deforming: "All you can do is trap me."

"It's not over yet!"

After the third generation's main body quickly swallowed a soldier's ration pill, it suddenly appeared in five locations along with four shadow clones.

The east, south, west, north, and up directions completely surrounded Danzang.

The five figures simultaneously formed hand seals, and the fluctuations in chakra caused the air to tremble.

"Five Elements: Great Consecutive Bullet Technique!"

A raging hurricane, a blazing fire dragon, a high-pressure water gun, blinding lightning, and dense rock spears—the chakra of the five elements collided, fused, and exploded wildly in the confined space!

"Boom—!!!"

Amidst the deafening explosion, five-colored energies formed a terrifying chakra vortex.

The space inside the Vajra Prison Wall was completely distorted; wind blades shredded muscles, flames burned bones, torrents washed over internal organs, lightning destroyed nerves, and rock spears pierced the body.

Five distinct destructive forces acted simultaneously on every inch of Danzo's body!

Even the outer walls began to crack, with blinding light shooting out from the spiderweb-like cracks.

The third generation's main body was thrown dozens of meters away by the shockwave, its black armor fluttering wildly in the turbulent energy flow.

When the smoke and dust cleared, only a charred, deep crater, twenty meters in diameter, remained.

At the bottom of the pit, some grayish-white cellular tissue remained, which was vaporizing and dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This time, the Third Hokage was truly exhausted of chakra, and he knelt on one knee.

The other four shadow clones quickly dissipated, returning the remaining chakra to their original bodies.

However, this amount of chakra is still far from enough for the current Third Hokage.

"If it were back then, I would indeed have died from this move."

However, the thing the Third Hokage least wanted to see still happened; Danzo's figure appeared not far from the Third Hokage like a ghost.

Chapter 21 Support? No, I'm here to beat people up.

With his chakra depleted, the Third Hokage knelt on one knee, his Vajra Staff deeply embedded in the soil, barely supporting his swaying body.

Sweat mixed with blood dripped from his chin, leaving dark craters on the scorched ground.

At this moment, his chakra was almost depleted, and his lungs felt like they were being burned. Every breath was accompanied by intense pain.

But Danzo, through Izanagi, was completely unharmed in front of him.

However, as Danzo was resurrected, his third Sharingan slowly closed.

But Danzo's face showed no sign of fatigue; instead, it was filled with a twisted excitement.

His right arm had become completely woody, and the wriggling cells beneath his skin were constantly repairing the injury, making him look more like a monster than a human.

"What's wrong, Hiruzen?"

Danzo approached slowly, his voice hoarse and mocking: "Is this the Hokage's capacity? Can't even kill a traitor?"

The third generation gritted his teeth, trying to stand up, but his legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead.
