"Kotoamatsukami!"
The Mangekyou Sharingan from Shisui in Danzo's right eye socket spun rapidly, unleashing the "most powerful genjutsu" known as Kotoamatsukami.
The outcome was decided!
There would be no further complications. Seeing Gensou already deep within the genjutsu, his perception fundamentally altered according to Danzo's instructions, it wouldn't be long before this formidable enemy became a loyal and reliable subordinate who accepted Danzo's ideology.
Danzo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Moreover, realizing that all of Gensou's ninjutsu, secret techniques, Kekkei Genkai, and most importantly, the mystery of his resurrection would soon belong to him, Danzo no longer felt any sorrow for his fallen subordinates. Instead, a rare expression of extreme joy appeared on his face.
What did Gensou matter? Under his scheme, Gensou had become a prisoner.
Having resolved such a significant threat to Konoha and the ninja world, and with Gensou set to become his ally, Danzo's power would increase significantly, potentially enabling him to live a second life.
At that moment, Danzo's ambitions soared.
Given such a significant achievement, the Hokage position should belong to him.
Once he became Hokage, he would surpass Hiruzen and lead Konoha to true greatness.
For the sake of Konoha, the position of the Fifth Hokage must remain unoccupied.
Danzo immediately thought of Orochimaru, well-suited for such dirty work.
"Or perhaps have Gensou do it?"
No one would know that Gensou was his man.
Looking at Gensou, who was motionless under the influence of Kotoamatsukami, Danzo touched the cross-shaped scar on his chin, fantasizing about a glorious future.
Suddenly!
A dark figure moved swiftly in front of him, and a left hand reached for his right eye socket.
Ahhhh!!! Danzo screamed as his right eye socket turned into a bloody cavity.
The eyeball that had been there fell into the intruder's left hand.
At that moment, looking at the Mangekyou Sharingan with its blood-red base and black blade-like pattern in his hand, Gensou smiled slightly:
"Got it."
For Gensou, with an imperfect soul, his greatest fear was undoubtedly genjutsu targeting the soul.
Conveniently, Danzo had such a powerful tool—Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan, known for its strongest genjutsu.
Gensou did not want to experience the effects of Kotoamatsukami.
Understanding Danzo's lust for power and his desperation to uncover the secret of resurrection, Gensou devised a plan using a shadow clone as bait.
With Kotoamatsukami in play, Danzo would prioritize controlling Gensou.
Everything unfolded as expected.
One had to admit, Danzo's acting was excellent.
Anyone unaware of his use of Izanagi might have been fooled by his performance before his "death," unknowingly falling into his trap.
But Gensou, remembering the kunai incident with Susanoo from years past, was not deceived. Instead, he played along, leading the cunning Danzo into a major blunder, forcing him to reveal Kotoamatsukami.
"How could this be???"
Recovering from the pain of losing his eye, Danzo looked up to see Gensou holding the Mangekyou Sharingan. He then saw the "Gensou" caught in Kotoamatsukami dissolve into a shadow clone.
"When did you...?"
Danzo raged.
He couldn't fathom how, during a battle where Gensou clearly held the upper hand, he managed to switch with a shadow clone.
'Could my capabilities have been exposed?'
Normal caution wouldn't reach such an extent.
Danzo immediately considered the possibility of leaked information.
But given Gensou had only recently been resurrected, he shouldn't have known about Danzo's right arm.
Only a few Root researchers and Orochimaru knew the truth.
Root members had the Tongue-Curse Seal, preventing them from leaking information.
So, did Orochimaru betray him?!
Recalling Orochimaru's previous encounter with Gensou, Danzo's face darkened.
Now wasn't the time to pursue that.
Without his trump card, facing Gensou again, Danzo finally sensed the presence of death.
"The fun is over. Let's get back to the main event."
"Danzo, your time has come."
Having no more distractions, Gensou moved to strike.
"Damn it!"
Feeling the heavy pressure, Danzo quickly formed the three seals to activate Izanagi.
Then, he faced Gensou's relentless assault.
A minute later.
Gensou threw Danzo's battered body to the ground, patiently waiting.
Soon.
Danzo's body vanished before his eyes.
Gensou turned to a nearby pillar, saying calmly:
"Izanagi, a forbidden technique that sacrifices one Sharingan to alter reality."
"People today might not understand, but in the Warring States period, many perished to this Uchiha technique."
Danzo, his face dark, emerged from behind the pillar.
No longer hopeful, he drew a kunai, refusing to give up: "I refuse to believe you have no limits, Gensou."
Determined to use Izanagi's invincibility, Danzo resolved to outlast Gensou.
Thus, time passed as Danzo fought Gensou with reckless abandon, exchanging blows.
However, his efforts were in vain.
Thud.
Gensou once again threw Danzo's broken body to the ground, glancing at the exposed Sharingan on his right arm and counting them with a smile:
"I do have limits, Danzo, but you clearly aren't putting enough pressure on me."
Reviving once more, Danzo finally realized the situation.
He counted the remaining Sharingan on his right arm, his face twitching, then turned and fled.
This was Konoha! He could summon more Konoha ninja.
No matter the cost, he had to outlast Gensou.
He hadn't lost yet!!!
