Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 1036: Chapter 38: Girl, You...

Sasuke and Danzo stared at each other up close, both panting heavily.

”You’re too impatient. My eye is still open.”

Danzo glanced at the Sharingan on the back of his right hand; it was still open, indicating that Izanagi was still in effect, capable of turning Sasuke’s attack into a dream.

”If not for those two people up there, I have many ways to kill you. It wouldn’t be so pathetic as now.”

Danzo’s face looked unpleasant because he knew that even if he defeated Sasuke, others were waiting; Shisui’s eye could only use illusions on one person.

”Go receive instruction from Itachi.”

Danzo slowly pulled the Wind Attribute Chakra Blade out of Sasuke’s body but then noticed Sasuke’s wide-open Mangekyo Sharingan.

”Izanagi hasn’t activated, could it be...”

Danzo immediately looked at the Sharingan on his right hand, now closed; the ten Sharingan on his right arm had all been used, tricked by Sasuke’s illusion into thinking one was still open.

”You’re the one who should meet Itachi.”

Sasuke gasped, pressing a hand on the wound Danzo had stabbed in his chest, turning to look up at Su Xiao and Obito, feeling stifled. Those bastards were just watching; maybe even if he died here, they wouldn’t care, only to take back his Sharingan.

At this moment, Sasuke realized a harsh truth: besides himself, no one could be trusted. Companions were just using each other; when one’s usefulness was gone, they’d be abandoned.

Sasuke seemed like an adult, but he was only seventeen, still a youth mingling in the Akatsuki Organization, how could his worldview not change with such members?

Su Xiao (covered in blood energy, often beheading people in battle)

Obito (cunning old fox)

Deidara (mad demon of explosives, once slaughtered a small ninja village)

Kisame (cuts whoever he’s tasked to cut)

Kakuzu (millennia-old cunning old fox)

In such a crowd, could Sasuke become a model youth? Don’t be ridiculous, if he hadn’t fully darkened, it showed the kid’s innate kindness.

”Managed to kill Danzo alone, but Danzo relied too much on that right arm.”

Obito was quite satisfied with Sasuke’s growth, especially his change in gaze, though his tone showed some disdain for Danzo’s defeat despite having both Senju and Uchiha power.

”Danzo isn’t weak; the older a ninja, the more their condition declines. At seventy-three, he has no Bloodline Limit or family support; he achieved everything himself. Without that right arm, he’d just be an old ninja with white hair, relying on it is normal.”

Su Xiao took a wild fruit from A Mu’s band, took a bite; the flesh was sweet and sour and juicy and tasted great. He hadn’t realized A Mu had a talent for finding wild fruits.

Placing Danzo and Sasuke at the start, with Danzo’s intelligence and political acumen, he’d have an advantage, though Sasuke’s talent is high.

Unfortunately, in youth, Danzo had nothing, not a Uchiha Clan’s eye or Senju Clan’s life energy, yet he achieved them through effort.

”However, a defeat is a defeat, a good hand wrecked by the circumstances.”

Su Xiao chuckled, Danzo had great advantage before the Five Shadow Summit, but Obito’s interference harmed him most.

During Su Xiao and Obito’s chat, the lower situation changed as a desperate Danzo captured Shinfuru, who assisted in Sasuke’s battle.

On the Stone Bridge.

”You, who always spoke of self-sacrifice, really take hostages.”

Sasuke’s voice was cold but carried a mocking tone.

”I’m not afraid of death; for Konoha, the ninja world, I can’t die here; no matter the means, I must survive, I’m the only one who can change the ninja world; this woman must be sacrificed.”

Danzo’s single arm tightened around Shinfuru’s neck; his right arm was abandoned due to inability to suppress Hashirama Cells or be devoured by them.

No doubt, Danzo is Danzo; who else could make a desperate act sound so unique and refined?

Above, Bubu Wang was clearly shocked by Danzo’s shamelessness. If you’re scared, admit it, nothing shameful, need not involve the whole world, listening to Danzo he seemed the spiritual leader of ninjas.

”No wonder he’s Konoha’s politician, makes desperation sound grand.”

Su Xiao chewed the wild fruit, speaking indistinctly.

”Oh? I thought you admired Danzo.”

Obito was quite surprised by Su Xiao’s words.

”Admire? I never admired others. Admiration is just expressing my views from a moral high ground. If I were Danzo now, I’d find ways to kill every enemy here; now’s the chance. Though gravely injured, he still might live; enemies won’t expect him to go down fighting, but now the situation is Danzo’s doomed. But if Danzo adopts a fight-to-the-death attitude, besides Sasuke’s hatred, no one will approach him, maybe he can escape. Desperation equals weakness; mad dogs scare people.”

After hearing Su Xiao’s words, Obito shook his head, wanting to say not everyone dared to threaten the Five Shadows with powerful explosives.

A blue beam extended from Sasuke’s hand.

Thud.

The beam directly pierced Shinfuru’s and Danzo’s chest, vital spots.

Danzo’s hand weakened, and Shinfuru collapsed in front.

Looking at fallen Shinfuru and retreating Danzo, Sasuke felt complex, a mix of killing a companion and the thrill of killing an enemy. Amid these conflicting emotions, Sasuke’s mouth curled up; he smiled, his heart seemed to transcend at this moment.

”Brother, I’ve solved one.”

Blood dripped down Sasuke’s jaw, Shinfuru, struggling on the ground, raised her head. Her glasses were nearby, her severely myopic vision blurred.

Shinfuru looked at Sasuke, vaguely seeing him smile; at this moment, she felt all strength leave her body.

”I’m such a... fool.”

Suddenly, Shinfuru regretted saving Sasuke many times from near-death. Now, just being held, Sasuke fired Chidori Sharp Spear through her vital spot without hesitation.

In dim awareness, Shinfuru suddenly thought Sasuke might need healing due to heavy injury, but she scoffed at herself as she thought of this; Sasuke already abandoned her.

Footsteps next to her were Sasuke’s, walking past to chase Danzo, ignoring her.

”If...there’s another chance, I wouldn’t... be so foolish...”

Shinfuru was completely drained.

In dim awareness, Shinfuru felt something approach. Uzumaki Clan’s resilient life energy kept her alive.

Shinfuru struggled to open her eyes to see a dog head she recognized as Su Xiao’s ’ninja dog.’

Watching Bubu’s gaze, Shinfuru chuckled bitterly, inexplicably feeling the dog expressed something like, ”Young lady, do you desire power?”
