Naruto 479 – Izanagi Unleashed
Madara is looking at Danzo. Sasuke starts to weaken from use of Sasanoo as he coughs up blood. Danzo smiles and then looks up at Madara then Karin. Danzo looks back at Sasuke who instantly has sasanoo shoot another arrow. Danzo easily dodges the arrow while Sasuke staggers.
Danzo thinking: “It won’t be long now. That technique may be strong but it can’t hold out for much longer.”
Madara thinking: “It makes sense why he would use izanagi now. The original move required multiple uchiha to focus their collective sharingans together in a combined jutsu just so one person could do it.”
Madara flashes back to several uchiha focusing together on a technique while another person fights.
Madara thinking: “The only problem is that the technique required only a select few with a certain genetic predisposition to make this technique work properly. Even then there was no way to completely know if each person would have the chakra and skills to keep the technique going without fail. That is why it was eventually abandoned in favor of other methods.”
Madara flashes back to an uchiha getting killed with several arrows in his body with some people standing over his corpse.
Madara: “It is a pity that such a technique will have to die off with Danzo but I guess it is the only way to stop such a technique from falling into the wrong hands.”
Danzo does hand signs and a huge flash of light occurs as Sasuke is blinded along with Karin and Madara.
Karin: “Ack! I can’t see! Damn it what is this technique.”
As the light clears Sasuke finds himself surrounded by dozens of Danzo copies. Sasuke has a shocked look on his face. Karin opens her eyes to see sasuke looking around shocked and surprised.
Karin thinking: “It looks like that attack didnt do anything to sasuke but what is danzo planning?”
Sasuke goes from shocked to angered as he starts to shoot at the clones. Each vanishes as Sasuke begins firing all over the place.
Madara thinking: “Danzo must have blinded sasuke. He is shooting at shadows now entirely on instinct.”
Sasuke continues to fire arrows randomly while Danzo easily dodges the arrows that get near him. Danzo suddenly vanishes and appears in front of karin.
Danzo: “Your eyes have seen too much. It is time for you to die.”
Karin on instinct throws a kunai at Danzo who easily dodges it but the kunai lands right next to sasuke. Sasuke turns and smiles evily at karin and fires an arrow at her. Karin has a horrified look on her face.
Karin: “Sasuke! Its me! No!!”
The arrow strikes karin and impales her on the end of a tree branch leaving her hanging in mid air. Sasuke smiles then continues shooting randomly.
Madara thinking: “This is getting too dangerous now. Sasuke is attacking at shadows and his next attack could be against me. I must end this now.”
Danzo: “It is a real waste that Itachi sacrificed so much just so you could live Sasuke. I guess now it is time you joined Itachi and completed Itachi’s failure.”
Sasuke: “I will end this now.”
Sasanoo starts to draw multiple arrows. Sasuke fires them all and then suddenly he drops to his knees as he coughs up blood. Sasanoo begins to fade as does the body marks. Danzo appears behind sasuke and raises his sword above sasuke leveled at his back.
Danzo: “Rest in piece Sasuke Uchiha.”
Danzo attempts to impale sasuke with his sword through Sasuke’s back in an angled position. Madara suddenly sucks up Sasuke just as Danzo is about to kill sasuke. Danzo turns to face Madara. Danzo sheaths his sword and looks at Madara.
Danzo: “You just couldn’t let Itachi’s sacrifice goto waste could you?”
Madara: “He will have his time one day. For now it is best that he recovered from what ever it is that you did to him. I do have some questions for you though.”
Danzo: “…”
Madara: “What exactly are your intentions concerning Naruto Uzimaki?”
Danzo raises an eyebrow and looks off in the distance as the body of karin continues to hang from the tree still impaled on the tree branch.
Pakkun is running as fast as he can arrives at the gates of Konoha. One of the guards immediately spots him and Pakkun continues to run through the street before arriving at the main office building of the hokage. Pakkun runs over and jumps through an open window heading up stairs to the hokage’s office. Just he is reaching the door Pakkun lifts his head up in surprise as he sniffs the door.
Pakkun thinking: “This can’t be right. This scent seems very familiar.”
Pakkun scratches at the door and slowly pushes it open to see the shadow of someone in the chair.
Pakkun: “I am here to give a report concerning the hokage conference. We are now officially at war.”
Unknown voice: “That is troubling news indeed.”
The person in the chair turns around to reveal Tsunade as an old lady. Pakkun has a shocked look on his face while Tsunade is smiling.
