This Danzo Is Weird!

It must be said that although Hanzo, the old man, had fallen from grace, when he got serious, even the Deva Path Pain, who was in the cooldown period of [Shinra Tensei], was no match for him!

After all, taijutsu had never been Nagato's strong suit. Therefore, in close combat with Hanzo, the Deva Path Pain, which he controlled, quickly fell into a disadvantage.

Even worse, the continuous stream of poison gas emanating from Hanzo's nostrils quickly put him in a perilous situation.

Although the Deva Path Pain was just a soulless puppet, it was still a biological entity.

And as long as it was a biological entity, the poison gas exhaled by Hanzo could severely affect it!

This was Hanzo's secret weapon that had allowed him to dominate the battlefield for so many years!

As the toxins accumulated in the Deva Path's body, Nagato could clearly feel its physical functions deteriorating rapidly.

If this continued, it would soon reach the stage of biological death.

Hanzo also noticed this.

Thus, his attacks became even more ferocious.

*Old friend, I will avenge you soon.*

Hanzo had this thought flash through his mind.

Then, he seized an opening caused by the Deva Path's stiffening body and suddenly whipped out the chain connected to his weighted sickle.

The chain, like a nimble serpent, instantly wrapped around the Deva Path's arms.

Immediately after, Hanzo concentrated all his strength into the blade of his sickle.

A blue chakra, resembling flames, erupted from the blade.

Combined with his astonishingly fast Body Flicker Technique, in an instant, he passed by his enemy.

A blade of light, like a bolt of lightning, sliced through the air.

Then, a line of blood appeared on the Deva Path's chest.

In the next second, crimson blood sprayed out!

"Nagato... lost?"

Yahiko, watching from a distance, saw this scene, his pupils contracting violently, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Konan's expression was equally grave.

Clearly, she hadn't expected that the terrifying [Shinra Tensei] from earlier hadn't killed Hanzo!

"Next, it's your turn."

The killing intent on Hanzo's body hadn't dissipated.

He held his sickle and slowly turned to face Yahiko and Konan.

"Since you killed my most trusted salamander, I'll take your companions with me as well."

Hanzo slightly bent his knees, preparing to use the Body Flicker Technique once more.

But he was immediately interrupted.

Because a figure stood in front of him.

The newcomer had long red hair, and his purple eyes were terrifying to behold!

"It's you, the red-haired brat!"

Hanzo recognized the figure at a glance.

Then he looked at the corpse lying beside him, only to see that the Rinnegan on the corpse had slowly disappeared.

"So, the real Rinnegan is on you."

Hanzo seemed to have solved a question in his mind.

But it seemed a bit too late.

"It's time to end this, all of it."

Nagato, who had personally arrived at the battlefield, merely raised his eyes, and a terrifying pressure emanated from him.

The moment he realized the Deva Path Pain had been poisoned, he had begun making his way to the battlefield.

Fortunately, he had arrived just in time.

Now, it was time to end this.

Nagato unleashed the full power of the Rinnegan without reservation.

As a pillar of smoke rose, a terrifying statue, large enough to blot out the sky, suddenly appeared amidst the ruins of the battlefield.

Its size was on a completely different level compared to the salamander from earlier, dwarfing it many times over!

The sudden appearance of this statue, along with the calm-faced, red-haired youth connected by numerous black rods, once again awakened Hanzo's nightmares.

Nagato locked onto Hanzo with killing intent.

As the Gedo Statue's palm slammed down, the former demigod was sent flying like a fly!

The terrifying force caused Hanzo to vomit a large amount of blood, and his body only came to a stop after crashing through who knows how many buildings.

This was the true power of the Rinnegan.

When Nagato, the true wielder of the Rinnegan, appeared in person, the outcome of this battle was already decided.

In the next second, the Gedo Statue stomped on the ground.

The surging force directly crushed the ground, and a terrifying shadow descended from the sky.

Nagato controlled the Gedo Statue to deliver a devastating kick to Hanzo.

This kick was like a natural disaster, causing the entire ground to crack open, leaving Hanzo with no chance of survival.

"It's over now."

Nagato breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Just as he was about to release the Gedo Statue, a sudden change occurred!

Hanzo's figure appeared from a distance, seemingly out of nowhere.

He emerged from a building, sickle in hand, moving like a white bolt of lightning.

His target was none other than Yahiko and Konan, who were standing at a distance, completely unprepared!

"If I can't kill that Rinnegan brat, then I'll make him feel the pain of losing his loved ones!"

Hanzo roared in his heart.

In the building he had emerged from, Obito Uchiha, hidden behind his mask, wore a faint smile.

It was he who had used [Kamui] to teleport Hanzo from under the Gedo Statue's foot to this location.

His goal was to assist Hanzo in killing Yahiko and Konan.

As long as Nagato's bonds in this world were severed, he would inevitably fall into darkness!

Thus, Hanzo charged forward, reaching Yahiko and Konan in an instant.

By this point, the two had no time to dodge.

Hanzo's sickle was already raised, like the scythe of death, ready to reap their souls!

Yahiko could only push Konan behind him as much as possible, stepping forward himself, spreading his arms, trying to block the sickle for her!

Unfortunately, Yahiko's noble sacrifice did not come to pass.

Because a figure stood in front of him.

When he saw who it was, his eyes immediately lit up with joy.

"Lord Danzo!"

Indeed, it was Danzo.

He stood there, holding a katana, calmly blocking Hanzo's attack.

"You've done well. Leave the rest to me."

Danzo said to Yahiko, then a massive amount of chakra erupted from his body.

A giant green Susanoo quickly formed, and without hesitation, it slammed its fist down at Hanzo!

Seeing this, Hanzo had no choice but to retreat quickly, avoiding the blow.

Then, with a grim expression, he said:

"So it's you behind all this, Danzo Shimura!"

Thanks to Danzo's reputation as the "Darkness of the Shinobi World," Hanzo naturally assumed that his current predicament was entirely Danzo's doing!

To this, Danzo sneered and said:

"Hanzo, your life ended the moment you chose to eliminate the Akatsuki to maintain your position as leader."

"Shut up!!"

As if struck by a taboo, Hanzo's face twisted in rage, and poison gas continued to flow from his nostrils.

Danzo, however, was unfazed.

No matter how potent the poison gas was, as long as it couldn't break through the Susanoo's defense, it posed no threat to Danzo.

Thus, facing the furious Hanzo, Danzo simply said:

"Lord Hanzo, it seems your time is running out."

With that, Nagato, who had sensed the situation, rushed over at top speed.

Hanzo, of course, saw Nagato approaching rapidly, and his expression turned even grimmer.

Facing Nagato alone was already beyond his capabilities, and now with Danzo added to the mix, he had no hope of winning.

Realizing this, Hanzo quickly made a decision.

Retreat for now, and plan for the future!!

Thus, he activated the Body Flicker Technique, intending to escape the battlefield before Nagato arrived.

Unfortunately, Danzo had already seen through his plan.

The green giant surrounding him immediately opened its ribcage, condensing countless light arrows that rained down on Hanzo like a storm.

Hanzo had no choice but to abandon his escape plan and instead use his weapon to block the attacks.

As Nagato drew closer, Danzo's eyes remained fixed on Hanzo's surroundings.

*Obito Uchiha, what will you do?*

In Danzo's view, as long as Obito didn't intervene, Hanzo would undoubtedly die at the hands of himself and Nagato.

But if Obito did intervene, he would inevitably expose himself in front of Nagato.

It would then be much harder to guide Nagato under the guise of being Madara Uchiha.

As it turned out, Obito wanted it all.

Amidst the fierce onslaught, an arm suddenly reached out from beneath Hanzo's feet, pulling him into the ground.

Using the ground as cover, Obito, wearing his tiger-striped mask, immediately activated his [Kamui].

The surrounding space rapidly twisted and rotated, preparing to absorb both himself and Hanzo into another dimension, allowing them to escape the battlefield!

This way, he could save Hanzo while avoiding direct exposure in front of Nagato.

All of this was seen by Danzo.

"So greedy, Obito Uchiha…"

Danzo sighed in his heart, then unleashed the power he had been gathering in his katana.

"Wind Style: Wind Blade Slash!"

As he assumed a drawing stance, all the power erupted in an instant.

The Wind Style chakra quickly formed a vacuum-like slash, as if it could cut through space itself, heading straight for the ground!

This was a derivative ninjutsu Danzo had developed based on the [Void Katana].

Combining the ultimate Wind Style nature transformation, shape transformation, and the samurai's Iaido technique.

It aimed to replicate the [Void Katana]'s ability to cut through space while extending its attack range!

And Obito Uchiha was the perfect whetstone for this technique!!

As it turned out, the power of this slash was truly astonishing.

The thick ground was sliced apart as easily as tofu, without even making a sound.

It was like an imperceptible ripple, silently cutting through everything!

Thus, just as Obito and Hanzo were halfway through their teleportation, they felt a terrifying killing intent lock onto them.

Then, they clearly saw an extremely thin blade of light emerge from the ground.

Amidst the soil, it exploded violently!
