Chapter 66 - Eyes be juggling in Konoha

"Fūton: Shinkūdama" (Wind release : Vacuum bullets)

Danzo inhaled deeply before blowing in Aoto's direction. Like before, the powerful vacuum bullets appeared to stop only inches before touching Aoto's body. Aoto was able to deflect without even moving a hand or evading, which left Danzo a little alarmed.

What the hell was this? No. He had seen this before. That guy in the Hidden Rain village but he was only able to deflect the kunai and attacks, and he could tell that there was use of chakra. How could this youngster counter without chakra?

But the attack gave Shikuro and Fuu time to think.

"Fuu, he is immune to ninjutsu. We need to try taijutsu."

"Yes."

Running with their swords drawn, Fuu and Shikuro approached Aoto. They coordinated their running as they both decided to attack Aoto from two distinct angles. The other targeted the abdomen while the first targeted the throat. Shikuro, who had already attempted to sever Aoto's throat, naturally made sure that he didn't go for the kill. They were unable to make the kill.

Because their supervisor Danzo would have serious problems if they assassinated Aoto. Danzo, meanwhile, wasn't acting ineffectively at all. He headed toward Aoto after pulling out his kunai and applying his vacuum style chakra on it.

Aoto was about to receive a chest stab from him. Aoto received all three of the attacks at once, but he didn't move because he wasn't required to. Aoto was the target of every attack, but there was no blood.

The assault left no marks, not even a scratch! As he noticed this, Aoto grinned. He had asked the system to let him have some fun. The three of them were perplexed but didn't hesitate to retreat in anticipation of Aoto taking action in revenge. There was none, though. Aoto simply permitted them to retreat as if nothing had happened.

"How the hell is able to stop all of our attacks?"

"This is not possible."

Danzo was suddenly looking solemn. Such a predicament had never occurred to him before. While they were about to strike, he had already attempted to use genjutsu, but Aoto was able to escape immediately. Both ninjutsu and taijutsu appeared to have no effect on him. What the hell was this guy?

"You've been having fun for a while; now it's my turn." These made the three stiffer. The sensory ninja of the group, Fuu, was keeping an eye out for any sneak attacks that might be coming. They had to observe Aoto's chakra usage. They could only devise a quick counterattack in this fashion.

Unfortunately for him, there was no chakra flow. The floor around them suddenly appeared to come to life, as ropes began to emerge at an incredibly rapid pace. The three of them were horrified to see the moving floors and decided to flee, but they didn't realize how quickly the concrete ropes that had just emerged to capture them would catch them.

The ropes swiftly wrapped around their limbs, immobilizing them and preventing any immediate escape. These concrete ropes were made of concrete and thus they were incredibly sturdy, making it impossible for the shinobis to break free through sheer strength alone or for any ninjutsu for that matter. Danzo and Shikuro tried using vacuum style to get rid of the ropes as their ninjutsus were of very sharp nature, but to no avail. To make matters worse, the trap was not limited to a single wave of concrete ropes. As soon as the initial ropes secured their targets, additional ropes began emerging from various directions, crisscrossing the captives and forming an intricate web of solid concrete.

The three were now kneeling and bound on the ground. They were attempting to move to try and escape the predicament, but the more they moved, the more immovable they became.

"Aoto.. You are attacking one of Konoha's top advisors. I advise you to leave. Otherwise, you'll have even worse problems than you do now." For the first time, Danzo directly threatened him with his remarks.

"Oh, good to know that someone now recognizes his situation. When you put a stop to my books, where was that conscience?" Aoto smiled and enquired.

"I've told you before. We cannot allow other villages get a whiff of your medical books. We can't let our village's advantage in medical ninjutsu slip away now that it has existed since the first Hokage."

"You're correct. We cannot. But in order to accomplish your objectives, you chose to abduct, threaten, and even nearly kill me. Seems like your parents has never taught you a lesson that you can't get forcefully get what you don't have. There is a proper order." Added Aoto. In response to Aoto's remarks, Danzo grinned and stated.

"The strong doesn't need permission to take away from the weak." Danzo had cause for his warnings.

"You're correct. They don't. So let me take something from you." Thanks to Shikuro's initial attack, Aoto muttered as he picked up a kunai that was lying on the ground before losing to Danzo.

"What... What... are you doing?" Danzo questioned, unable to accept the predicament he was in. He was aggressively making every effort to escape Aoto as he was being restrained. He wanted to get away right away and then plan a means to get even, but he was unable to do so. He felt powerless. Since the moment the 2nd Hokage declared that Hiruzen would succeed him as Hokage, he had never felt this helpless. He wanted to strike back but was unable to. Here, it was the same.

Aoto didn't care about his thoughts nor his struggle. Inside the system space, he was the God. He pointed the kunai straight at his eye that was under the coper of white clean cloth wrapped around his head. Danzo's other eye became wide as he saw what Aoto was going to do.

He stabbed on the inner side of the eye socket from over the cloth and procced to scoop put the eye. Aoto just took out the eye of Danzo where he could only git his teeth and watch. Soon the white cloth was red with blood and even then Danzo just shut his mouth and didn't scream for a second due to pain.
