Chapter 230 Uchiha Izuna VS Shimura Danzo
Madara Uchiha's face was gloomy.
What do you mean, "a man who used Sexy Jutsu on Hashirama?!" Can't you even guess his name, Uchiha Madara?!
"Sorry, sorry." Jiraiya jumped in to smooth things over, "My apprentice is a bit of a airhead."
Madara Uchiha gave a cold snort.
He considered himself a great figure from the Warring States period! The head of the Uchiha clan! He couldn't possibly stoop to the level of this blond brat who was practically his grandson's grandson!
Nagato and Konan recognized him as Uchiha Madara, but "if Uchiha Madara and the First Hokage lived in the same era, he would be at least nearly a hundred years old, right?"
"And who is this young man?"
"Uchiha Izuna is Uchiha Madara's younger brother."
Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan exchanged a glance.
"It's been so long since I've seen Jiraiya-sensei. If you're not in such a hurry, let's have a drink together first. We can talk about everything after the celebration."
Perhaps anticipating something, Yahiko suppressed the serious topic that was about to be discussed and instead invited his teacher and two ninjas from the Sengoku period to have a drink in Amegakure.
Madara and Izuna weren't in a hurry either.
The two brothers haven't had a drink in a long time.
After reading so many comments on the screen, Izuna had a lot of things to apologize for regarding her previous choices and wanted to say to her brother.
Fine wine was perhaps the best truth serum for the two brothers.
"Let's celebrate!"
Under Yahiko's leadership, the entire Akatsuki organization prepared fine wine and delicacies, and ate, drank, and chatted freely inside the Akatsuki's base in Amegakure.
The Akatsuki members also saw the barrage of comments appearing in the sky.
After a few drinks, he still brought up the matter of Minato Namikaze and Obito Uchiha.
Yahiko was the first to speak up, "Even if it's a student of my fellow disciples, if he tries to harm Konan and Nagato, I will absolutely not let him get away with it." Jiraiya downed his drink and placed the empty cup on the table.
"Knowing it was all a scam, you still went ahead and carried it out without hesitation?" Jiraiya said sarcastically, "No matter how badly he was a loser, that kid couldn't be that stupid."
Listen carefully, and you'll know he's talking about Uchiha Obito.
At first glance, everyone thought he was talking about Madara Uchiha.
Jiraiya, however, quickly adopted a respectful attitude as a junior, filled Madara and Izuna's cups, and asked if they should find some girls to liven things up.
This left Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha unable to get angry even if they wanted to.
"No need for that, young lady," Uchiha Izuna warned Jiraiya with a sour expression. "Don't speak so sarcastically next time!"
"Hahahaha," Jiraiya laughed, "Why don't you handsome guys care about finding women? I really don't understand." Orochimaru was the same; he had never been interested in women since he was a child.
Konan: "I've heard that everyone in the ninja world is saying—"
The rest of the sentence was left unsaid, but everyone knew what it meant.
The ninja world is ruined by those shameless comments!
Rumors are circulating that the Uchiha brothers, Madara and Izumi, and the Senju brothers, Hashirama and Tobirama, have some kind of ambiguous relationship!
This matter comes up!
Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha downed a glass of wine in one go, and in their impulsiveness, they almost actually asked Jiraiya to find them some cute girls to prove their sexual orientation!
Well—of course—
This was just a fleeting thought born of anger; the two of them weren't so irrational as to lose their minds.
Hmph! It's all Hashirama's fault!
Hmph! It's all Tobirama's fault!
Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha drank another cup of sake as former Akatsuki members Daibutsu and Kyusuke urged them to drink.
Later, Izuna probably got a little drunk and started crying while hugging his brother.
"Brother! It's all my fault! I shouldn't have left you alone!"
"That Hashirama Senju was such a despicable bastard! How could you listen to his nonsense, brother?"
"In the next life, let me be the older brother again. I will definitely protect my brother who is as innocent as a blank sheet of paper!"
"Izuna, you've had too much to drink," was a comment on the live stream. "I wish I could be Sasuke Uchiha in my next life."
Madara Uchiha was also a little overwhelmed by his younger brother's genuine emotions. What do you mean by being as innocent as a blank sheet of paper? He's not Sasuke Uchiha!
By late at night, almost everyone was drunk.
The only two people who were still somewhat conscious were Konan and Jiraiya.
Jiraiya asked Konan if she had decided which of the two men she wanted to be with.
Konan asked Jiraiya-sensei when he and Tsunade-sama would take their relationship to the next level.
Both of them sighed.
Konan loves Yahiko, who is like sunshine, and she also loves Nagato, who is like moonlight. She can't let go of either of them.
Jiraiya also knew that Tsunade's love in this life would always be Dan Kato, and that even if she was with him for various reasons, it was out of friendship and companionship.
Under the rare clear sky over Amegakure, the two sighed softly.
Filled with bitterness, and seeing their three younger brothers who had died long ago through the mirror, Madara and Izuna indulged themselves for once.
But as will soon be proven, Madara and Izuna did not waste their time on this drinking session.
They were celebrating here, unaware that Hanzo of the Salamander's plan to meet with the Akatsuki organization again in a few months had been brought forward.
Danzo Shimura shared the same idea, and he was willing to do anything to protect Konoha!
For his own reasons, he did not want Konoha and Iwagakure to cease hostilities.
Therefore, he led a group of Root ANBU to the border of the Land of Rain, disguised himself as a ninja from Iwagakure, and prepared to meet the Akatsuki organization, which possessed the Rinnegan.
Furthermore, in order to sow discord between Hanzo the Salamander and the Akatsuki organization, he had members of Root imitate the methods of Akatsuki members and kill a group of Hanzo's clansmen and subordinates.
"I'm sure you've seen what's in the comments, Hanzo. The Akatsuki's ambitions have extended far beyond Amegakure."
Carrying the corpse of the Hanzo tribesman who was a salamander, Danzo went to find Hanzo.
"Even Konoha will be destroyed by them in the future. The power of the Rinnegan is too great. Such a thing should not exist in the ninja world."
"What do you want, Danzo?"
"By gathering the power of Konoha, I hope to help Lord Hanzo remove this obstacle," Danzo said. "Of course, this is also for the sake of the entire ninja world."
"Alright, since that's the case, we have no choice but to retaliate."
On the Konoha side, Minato, for various reasons, did not report any information about Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna to Konoha.
Even Jiraiya only said, "After helping them complete the mission at Kannabi Bridge, Jiraiya-sensei went on a journey around the ninja world, perhaps to find Lady Tsunade."
Therefore, Shimura Danzo lacked a crucial piece of information: Jiraiya, Madara Uchiha, and Izuna Uchiha were all currently in Amegakure.
After the hangover was completely sobered up, only the three core members, Konan, Yahiko, and Nagato, as well as Jiraiya, Madara Uchiha, and Izuna Uchiha, were in the room inside the base.
It's time to have a proper talk about the Rinnegan.
The story explains the reasons for the appearance of Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna, and there are also comments on the bullet screen suggesting that the Rinnegan is the power of Uchiha Madara.
"We had actually discussed this matter before you arrived."
Yahiko said sternly, "Since the Rinnegan belongs to you, we have no reason to keep it."
Izuna never expected that the young man whose voice sounded so much like Tobirama would be so sensible. If this had happened to Tobirama, even if they returned what belonged to them, that guy would definitely skin them alive!
"Moreover, the power of those eyes is too strong; it's like a double-edged sword on Nagato."
Yahiko solemnly responded to the requests from Jiraiya, Madara Uchiha, and Izuna Uchiha.
"Therefore, we have decided to return the Rinnegan to you one by one."
Jiraiya: "It's great that you think that way, Nagato, Yahiko, Konan."
Yahiko paused for a moment, then said, "But we need a pair of excellent eyes."
Konan slowly explained to the group, "The person who kidnapped Nagato when he was a child, gouged out his eyes, and replaced them with the Rinnegan was Uchiha Madara. So while we are returning the Rinnegan, we also hope to at least return Nagato's original eyes."
That makes sense.
"Nagato's original eyes may no longer be available, so we will prepare a pair of other people's eyes for Nagato."
Uchiha Izuna said, "You can suggest either Sharingan or Byakugan."
Although we got my brother's eyes back, they were Rinnegan after all, so we should at least give him a decent pair of eyes.
Konan, Yahiko, and Nagato exchanged a glance.
Nagato himself said, "Ordinary eyes will suffice. Also, I hope that if any difficulties arise in the future—"
"If what's happening in the comments really does," Nagato said after a moment of silence, "if I'm really going to do something terrible, please kill me before that happens."
Jiraiya-sensei was their teacher and their benefactor, warming them like a father.
If he were to actually commit the act of patricide as some viewers have suggested, he would never forgive himself.
Konan, Yahiko, and Jiraiya sighed inwardly, but respected Nagato's decision.
Uchiha dollheaded, "Okay."
"However, without the Rinnegan, you probably couldn't do those things even if you wanted to," Madara added, also to reassure Nagato that he shouldn't think too much about it.
Nagato nodded; he knew this, of course, but he was still terrified of that future.
Madara Uchiha paused for a moment, looking at Yahiko's red hair, "The reason I chose you in this world is probably because I value your talent in chakra. Don't waste your excellent Uzumaki bloodline."
The Rinnegan completely obscured Nagato's natural talents as a member of the Uzumaki clan. If he had found the right direction, even without the Rinnegan, Nagato wouldn't have been too weak.
"I've heard about it from the comments," Nagato asked, "Jiraiya-sensei, what exactly is the Uzumaki clan?"
"A great ninja clan that rivaled the Senju and Uchiha clans during the Warring States period, but also the first to be wiped out. Currently, Konoha still has a little girl named Kushina, who was Minato's girl," Jiraiya said, beckoning with his little finger.
Yahiko and the others instantly understood; it was their fellow disciple's woman.
Jiraiya: "Minato will later obtain Kushina's consent to teach you some of the Uzumaki clan's secret techniques."
As the three were talking, someone knocked on the door to report that Iwagakure ninjas were attacking Amegakure.
Madara Uchiha frowned. Haven't these kids from Iwagakure learned their lesson yet?
"It's been a long time since I fought alongside my brother. Let's go together," Izuna suggested. "It'll be a good opportunity for me to witness the power of my brother's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan."
"good!"
The two brothers traveled together to the battlefield where the Hidden Stone Village was said to have invaded the Land of Rain, and then—
When Danzo Shimura saw the two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan, he nearly shattered.
"Iwagakure?" Madara Uchiha sneered.
With his and Izuna's Sharingan, those crude transformation techniques were utterly insignificant!
Even those members of Konoha Root, who were trained by Danzo using the cruelest methods, were unable to resist Madara and Izuna's Sharingan. One by one, they were controlled, their transformation techniques were canceled, and they reverted to being Konoha ninjas wearing Anbu uniforms.
"Rotten roots shouldn't be left alive!" With that, Madara Uchiha was propelled high into the sky by his Perfect Susanoo. "What Hashirama couldn't do, I'll do for him."
Perhaps wanting to give Izuna a taste of her own medicine, Madara put all his strength into cleaning up the rotten roots of Konoha with sweeping, powerful movements.
A woman's excessive compassion will only allow the rotting roots to continuously spread bacteria to the branches and buds of the entire plant, potentially leading even the mighty tree to rot and die.
Madara was wasting his talents by using them against the Root members brought by Danzo.
Izuna, on the other hand, envisioned a future where Danzo would arrange for Itachi Uchiha to personally exterminate his clan, and he would fight against Danzo Shimura alone.
Although there aren't many rumors about him, he was nonetheless Shimura Danzo's teacher, and even Tobirama Senju called him an "invincible opponent"!
Uchiha Izuna dealt with Shimura Danzo as easily as dealing with a child.
But instead of killing Shimura Danzo all at once, he toyed with him, waiting a moment for something to happen.
Madara Uchiha had already eliminated the Root members brought by Danzo.
He also took advantage of the fact that he collected the eyes of several people before they died, and used them to perform an eye transplant on Nagato later.
He sat to one side, watching Izuna and Danzo fight.
"A student of Tobirama Senju?" Madara Uchiha muttered to himself, "He hasn't even learned a fraction of Tobirama's skills."
As Izuna's older brother, Madara could obviously see that Izuna was teasing Shimura Danzo, waiting for him to use "that power".
At this point, Shimura Danzo had become quite the wolf and fox.
His subordinates were all dealt with by Madara.
He tried to escape several times, but was intercepted by Uchiha Izuna's attacks each time.
Left with no other choice, he had to use that power.
He removed the Konoha headband and unwrapped the bandages covering the right side of his face.
Danzo Shimura revealed one of his Sharingan eyes.
Under the watchful eyes of Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha, that Sharingan transformed into the Mangekyou Sharingan!
It turns out that Kakashi was not the first person to successfully exchange eyes with an Uchiha (in the original timeline).
Danzo Shimura obtained a Mangekyou Sharingan much earlier!
"These are the eyes of the mirror."
Danzo Shimura said slowly, "I never imagined I'd use it against the two of you—"
"Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna!"
"Oh? You even knew about me?"
"I've heard from Tobirama-sensei that he's an opponent with almost no weaknesses."
"My opponent—" Izuna pondered for a moment, "That's how that guy describes me."
An opponent with virtually no weaknesses, an opponent with no way to defeat them.
They are rivals, not enemies.
