Naruto: Rise To The Top - Chapter 29

While Danzo was trying to escape from eternal prison, Souta spoke to Ryuu.

“Ryuu, you will fight him with me, but don’t use genjutsu on him because it’s useless against him, and never look in the eye because he can change memories in an instant,” Souta spoke as he walked toward Danzō.

Ryuu used the ‘Multiple Shadow Clone Technique’ to make ten clones.

Then he made them run around Danzo, throwing the kunai to which the Explosive Tag was attached from all sides.

The Kunai hit Danzo and all the Explosive Tag exploded, destroying everything in that area. But when the dust was gone, Danzo wasn’t there but a charred and smashed piece of tree stump.

When Ryuu used his shadow clone Danzo noticed him and was ready, so he used the Body Replacement Technique as soon as he saw the kunai heading towards him.

But the moment he appeared after using the Body Replacement Technique, an extremely hot fireball shot out towards him.

“Fire Release:  Great Fireball Technique”

The moment Danzo appeared, Souta kneaded the chakra in his body and turned it into fire, then expelled it from his mouth. When the fire came out of his mouth, it took the shape of a giant orb and kept its shape until it reached Danzo.

Danzo noticed the fireball late but was able to dodge it using a body flicker.

When the fireball hit the ground, the fireball was strong enough to dig deep into the ground.

The moment Danzou evaded the attack, ten shadow clones jumped on him.

“Wind Release: Vacuum Wave”

Danzō took in a deep breath as he rotated as he exhaled, compressing the releasing air into a single blade of wind covering a large area around him, due to its circular motion. The resulting sharp blast is large enough to slash through all shadow clones that jumped at him.

After this, Danzo used the Summoning Technique.

A gigantic elephantine chimera appeared, was very large in size, and was predominantly dark orange except for the trunk, legs, and markings around the eyes. Its feet are striped (reminiscent of the feet of a tiger) and it also has huge fangs, in addition to long, sharp claws.It has bandages wrapped around its head and plated armour at the base of its trunk.

Baku was so huge that his claw was only the size of the Susanoo that Ryuu used when fighting the kidnappers.

[Baku shape]

[Note: I don’t know if Baku was made or not during this time period, but I put it in events anyway.]

“Baku, attack him.” Hearing Danzo’s command, Baku jumped toward Ryuu.

Ryuu dodged Baku and backed away from him, at this moment Souta’s voice was heard from afar.

“Ryuu, distract the summoned animal, and I will kill Danzo,” Souta told Ryuu in a loud voice.

When Ryuu dodged Baku and turned away from him, Baku opened his mouth and inhaled, a powerful suction force was created that inhaled everything within a large radius of itself.

Ryuu was sucked into Baku’s mouth, and when he reached his mouth he used Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique and made it into Baku’s mouth.

Baku’s mouth and face were burned, and Baku started screaming in pain, then Ryuu entered Baku’s burning mouth with more than 30 Explosive Tag in his hand and detonated them inside Baku’s mouth with himself.

At this moment Baku disappeared from the scene with a puff of smoke. Ryuu then walked out from behind one of the nearby trees, sighing as he said, “The shadow cloning technique is really useful.”

Meanwhile with Souta and Danzo.

“Wind Release: Vacuum Blade”

Danzo took out a wind-filled chakra on the shuriken, increasing its range and cutting power, and then threw it at Souta.

Souta easily dodged the shuriken, then ran toward Danzō.

“Wind Release: Vacuum Serial Waves”

Danzo took a deep breath and exhaled several feathers from different angles, by moving his head in different directions. The attack hit Souta but turned into a tree trunk.

Souta appeared behind Danzo and using a body flicker, Souta quickly moved towards Danzo, sending a punch to Danzo’s head.

“Do you think I won’t notice your coming?” Danzo took out a wind-filled chakra on the kunai in his hand which increased its sharpness and scope, becoming like a sword, and stabbed it at Souta.

When the kunai stabbed Souta, his body dissipated in thick white smoke and surrounded Danzo, and in moments another Souta came out of the smoke and kicked Danzo, which made Danzo try to retreat but he forgot that behind him was the prison barrier so when he wanted to retreat, his back hit the barrier and he couldn’t evade an attack Souta.

A little while ago, Souta used the Shadow Clone and made him attack first and then using the smoke that came out of the Shadow Clone after it evaporated to attack Danzo without noticing.

Souta developed a thick smoke shadow clone to make the enemy lose their sight for a few seconds, enough for them to make a surprise attack, and this smoke can block the view of the Sharingan as well.

Souta kicked Danzo in the stomach when his back was on the barrier, causing Danzo to vomit blood and then with a side kick that threw Danzo away.

Danzo got up from the ground, but noticing that he couldn’t see through the right eye, he extended his hand to find that the eye had disappeared and the place it was in became hollow and blood started to come out of it.

“This eye is not yours so I got it back.” Souta spoke to Danzo. Then Danzo noticed that the Sharingan eye is located on the palm of Souta’s hand.

“When did you remove it? How did I not notice you took it? How do you have such strength. Your strength should only be at the level of an elite jonin.” Danzō looked at Souta angrily.

“You’re wrong. My strength is not at the level of an elite Jonin.” Souta said while looking at Danzo with disdain.

“I am a person who likes to hide his strength. No one knows my true strength except for four of my friends, and you killed one of my friends so I have to kill you to take revenge for him.” Anger was burning inside Souta when he said the last part.

“It seems that you are so used to the benefits my friend’s eye offers from immunity to genjutsu, that even after I take the eye from you, you still dare to look at my Sharingan directly and that’s foolishness,” Souta said with a smile as he looked at Danzō’s eye with disdain.

When Danzo realized this it was too late to do anything. Because the moment Souta finished speaking, a sword pierced Danzo’s heart.

Souta who was talking to Danzō dissipated, and appeared in front of Danzō with a sword piercing his heart.

“If I’m going to die, then let us die together.” Danzo grabbed Souta and activated the Reverse Four Symbols Sealing. The seal appeared on Danzō’s chest, and four symbols shot out from Danzō’s body which afterwards formed a large black ball around Danzō and Souta.

Souta was then pulled along with whatever was caught inside the ball area and sealed inside Danzo’s body. Danzo was lying on the ground dead.

‘I should thank Ryuu for telling me this seal on Danzo’s body, otherwise I’m dead now,’ Souta thought as he looked at the big hole on the ground that the seal made on Danzo’s body.

“You killed him really fast.” Ryuu appeared beside Souta. Ryuu was shocked that Souta had killed Danzo so quickly, and he was relieved when he saw that Danzo had died.

“Ryuu, let’s go back to Konoha, but before that burn Danzo’s body,” Souta said to Ryuu.

“Okay.” Ryuu used Fire Release: Fireball Technique to burn Danzo’s body. Then they both returned to Konoha.

“I will go to the Hokage, while you can go to rest because you did a lot of fighting today and you must be very tired,” Souta said to Ryuu and patted his shoulder as soon as they reached Konoha.

“Okay, I’m really tired so I’ll go home to rest.” Ryuu said while stretching his body.

“Don’t tell anyone that we killed Danzo, we will keep this a secret,” Souta said to Ryuu seriously.

Then they parted, Ryuu went home while Souta went to the Hokage’s building.

As soon as Souta arrived at the Hokage’s building, they told him that the Hokage was not in his office and that he had come home to take some rest because he had not been home for days.

‘I think I’ll come for him tomorrow,’ Soota thought with a sigh.

He wants to meet the Hokage to let him know if they find any Sharingan eyes in the Root Ninja Headquarters they should bring them to him. But it seems that he has to postpone that until tomorrow.
