Chapter 1038 - 40: Attack Konoha Village? Are You Dreaming?

Like ink-black energy spurted from Danzo’s chest. This black energy wasn’t Chakra, and it carried a very ominous feeling.

The ink-black energy splashed around, with most of Obito’s body submerged in the stone bridge. As for Sasuke, he had been advancing slowly toward Danzo. Upon hearing Obito’s shout, Sasuke wanted to retreat too, but he was too close to Danzo, and having spent over 90% of his stamina from the earlier battle, escaping the range of the sealing skill by sheer speed was nearly impossible.

At the center of the sealing skill, Danzo tilted his head back, undergoing unimaginable pain, a feeling as if his soul were being torn apart.

The so-called Inner Four Symbols Sealing Technique was almost a kamikaze sealing skill because once used, the caster would die regardless of their state. The technique’s definition was to seal everything around into the caster’s body.

Knowing he couldn’t escape today, Danzo activated this skill. Perhaps he had anticipated this day might come long ago, so he had set up the Inner Four Symbols Sealing Technique on his chest in advance.

Ink-black energy flowed across the bridge’s surface, and suddenly, the ink-black energy began to splash.

Boom!

A black sphere appeared with Danzo at the center. Sasuke, who had backed away quickly, tilted his head, narrowly avoiding the sphere. He didn’t know what this thing was, but he knew one thing for certain: he must not touch it.

The black sphere quickly expanded from several tens of meters to hundreds of meters.

Everything touched by the black sphere vanished, as if instantly decomposed. In reality, the things didn’t vanish; they were sealed inside Danzo’s body.

A half-circular pit appeared on the stone bridge, its clean seams as if crafted by a meticulous craftsman.

At this moment, Danzo was in mid-air, at the center of the Inner Four Symbols Sealing Technique. His consciousness was somewhat blurred, and in his dying moments, he thought of someone.

"Even until the end, I never became Hokage."

As soon as Danzo’s words ended, the black sphere around him disappeared. The moment it vanished, Danzo fell silent, as if his life had been severed.

With a thud, Danzo landed in the semicircular pit at the center of the stone bridge. He was dead, yet he was smiling because he had left nothing for the enemy.

At the moment the Inner Four Symbols Sealing Technique ended, Danzo used a secret technique to destroy Shisui’s Sharingan in his right eye socket and his entire brain.

If Danzo were dissected at this time, it would be found that his brain was like mush.

Though Danzo’s body looked intact, he was far from it. He destroyed Shisui’s Sharingan to prevent leaving it to the enemy, and he obliterated his brain to prevent Konoha’s confidential information from being leaked.

Beside the pit in the stone bridge, Obito’s breathing was slightly rapid. The Inner Four Symbols Sealing Technique was no joke; if hit by this technique, no matter how strong his spatial abilities were, he would be dragged into Danzo’s body and sealed within.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

A dry cough sounded beside Obito; it was Sasuke, who hadn’t been drawn into the Inner Four Symbols Sealing Technique.

A crisp hawk’s cry rang out in the sky, as a great hawk soared above. It was Sasuke’s summoning beast.

In Sasuke’s condition, he couldn’t have escaped the range of the Inner Four Symbols Sealing Technique; it was the summoning beast that saved him in a moment of crisis.

Obito looked toward Danzo’s corpse in the pit and said:

"That’s a sealing skill that pulls the enemy into the corpse; it seems he had prepared this technique long ago."

"..."

Sasuke remained silent, only staring at Danzo’s body, his expression showing the desolation and emptiness of succeeding in revenge.

"Next, we’re heading to Konoha."

Sasuke’s tone was firm. Hearing this, the expression under Obito’s mask stiffened, feeling that this young man was clearly swelling with pride after killing Danzo.

If Sasuke were to attack Konoha now, it would be like hitting a rock with an egg. His Susanoo might not be weak, but faced with a large number of Konoha Ninja, he’d soon be overwhelmed and killed, or rather, whether he could even penetrate Konoha Village was unknown.

When Su Xiao and Nagato attacked Konoha, they didn’t employ a frontal assault. Instead, Chikushodo first summoned a massive number of summoning beasts to create chaos; then Chikushodo reverse-summoned the other five Pains. Su Xiao then breached the barrier from the outside, drawing Konoha’s attention. Using the opportunity Su Xiao created, the six Pains ambushed inside Konoha, not giving the Konoha Ninja a chance to regroup, ultimately allowing Heavenly Dao to clear the scene, killing most of the ninja.

Considering Sasuke’s current strength against Konoha, he was completely overestimating himself.

"Konoha, huh."

Obito didn’t answer Sasuke directly, clearly not wanting to hurt Sasuke’s pride. Instead, he jumped into the pit and approached Danzo’s corpse.

"I need to retrieve this guy’s Sharingan. Sasuke, don’t be too hasty. Head back to the base to rest; you’ve overused your pupil power. If this continues..."

Obito activated his pupil power, drawing Danzo’s corpse into the Kamui space.

Evidently not wishing to linger, Obito leaped out of the pit and walked in the direction where Su Xiao was.

Su Xiao had witnessed Danzo’s death throughout but hadn’t intervened. To do so now would be futile and potentially endanger himself by being caught in Danzo’s sealing skill.

"Get ready to retreat. Bai Jue sensed pursuers."

Obito came to Su Xiao for retreat, but hadn’t mentioned the pursuers to Sasuke before.

"Pursuers?"

Su Xiao squinted his eyes. He had been waiting for the pursuers, as it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The pursuer was the plot’s main character, Naruto Uzumaki, the Nine-Tailed Pillar Force. He wanted to try capturing Naruto before the Ninja War began and see what would happen.

"At least dozens of them. Some Konoha Ninja, but mostly unfamiliar faces."

"Dozens?"

Su Xiao was surprised at the number of pursuers. According to the original plot information, there should have only been a few pursuers. The identities of the other dozens were obvious.

Naruto Uzumaki is undoubtedly a classic Lawful Good protagonist. Such protagonists are the most popular; as long as there’s no animosity or hostility, they won’t easily harm others, making them relatively easy to negotiate with.

Due to his unfortunate childhood experiences, Naruto developed an optimistic and positive character. Engaging with such protagonists, as long as one doesn’t harbor malice and proactively seeks friendship, can yield significant benefits.

It’s easy to imagine that many Contractors would surround Naruto, each negotiating in their way, all with friendly intentions, of course.

As for Su Xiao, there’s no joking about it. Meeting Naruto, if the latter doesn’t instantly unleash his Tailed Beast mode, it already shows his little brother is very calm.

Think about what Su Xiao had done: capturing Naruto’s close friend Gaara, killing Naruto’s teacher Kakashi, attacking Naruto’s home Konoha, cutting off one of Hinata’s arms, and killing Naruto’s friend Kiba Inuzuka.

It’s easy to see their relationship wasn’t merely adversarial; it was deadly rival!
