Three figures appeared before them, three pairs of unique Mangekyo patterns emitting a chilling eye power, their gazes cold.
Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru both froze, their hands forming seals coming to a halt.
They knew all three of these individuals!
The Ninja World Asura, the lifelong rival of Senju Tobirama, and the Uchiha's earliest genius to awaken the three Tomoe!
Shimura Danzo suddenly turned his head: "Genjutsu?"
Orochimaru ignored the brain-addled Shimura Danzo.
His expression was extremely grim, Orochimaru knew the depths of the Ninja World were murky, but he didn't expect it to be this complex...
Not only was Senju Tobirama causing turmoil within Konoha...
But secretly, the Uchiha Clan was hiding such power!
Uchiha Madara wasn't dead, Uchiha Izuna was still alive, and that Uchiha Obito had also awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, entwined with them, what was this situation!?
Even someone as calm as Orochimaru couldn't help but feel a tumult in his heart at this moment!
Shimura Danzo then realized that this scene wasn't Genjutsu!
But no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't understand why these two Uchiha, killed by Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama-sama, were still alive?
In the breath between their shock.
Uchiha Izuna had already appeared instantly before Orochimaru and Shimura Danzo!
A pair of crimson eyes first locked onto Orochimaru.
In an instant, in Orochimaru's mental world.
Countless thick iron nails pierced through his body, the soul enduring the torment of Senju Tobirama, then subjected to the Genjutsu torture from Uchiha Izuna!
With one glance, Orochimaru fell.
And this scene was recorded by the trace of eye power hidden deep within Orochimaru's mind.
In this life-and-death crisis, Shimura Danzo finally came to his senses, after a multitude of images flashed through his mind in an instant, he abruptly tore open the clothing at his chest, a dense array of seals surfaced on his body, about to spew forth ink...
"Inner Four Symbols Fuinjutsu!"
"The inherently evil Uchiha Clan, let me cleanse you for the peace of the Ninja World..." Shimura Danzo roared.
"You have the nerve to say such things, boy?"
Uchiha Izuna coldly glanced at Shimura Danzo's trump card Kinjutsu, the Mangekyo's pattern spinning—"Dojutsu: Chibiki!"
Uchiha Obito watched the scene intently...
This was his first time witnessing Uchiha Izuna's Dojutsu, seemingly able to counteract Kamui's Chibiki!
Starting from Shimura Danzo's chest, an icy barrier instantly covered his body, halting the imminent eruption of the "Inner Four Symbols Fuinjutsu."
The once-mighty Dark Ninja instantly turned into a bizarre ice sculpture.
The entire body motionless, even Chakra seemed to have solidified, undetectable in the slightest.
Uchiha Izuna lightly tapped Shimura Danzo's head.
With a cracking sound.
The head fell to the ground, making a crisp ringing noise.
Uchiha Obito nodded thoughtfully, thinking to himself: "No wonder Uchiha Izuna dares to ride my Kamui, unafraid of being trapped in the alternate space..."
"Being able to freeze both Chakra and space does indeed counter my defensive Kamui."
Uchiha Obito then realized his thoughts were incorrect, correcting himself:
"No, no Dojutsu can restrain the Mangekyo left to me by Rin... it should be mutually nullifying, my offensive Kamui can distort space, it could theoretically counteract the freezing."
Zetsu watched from behind Uchiha Madara, quite gratified with the seemingly contemplative Uchiha Obito.
Finally...
Finally starting to think!
"Orochimaru, we have a research project here we'd like to invite you to collaborate on, are you interested?"
Uchiha Izuna, holding Shimura Danzo's head, politely released Orochimaru from the Genjutsu, speaking softly: "Don't worry, our Uchiha Clan has always treated research talents favorably."
Orochimaru suppressed the mental tearing pain brought by the Genjutsu, barely squeezing out a smile: "Much appreciated."
Under the gaze of three pairs of Mangekyo Sharingan, Orochimaru had no desire to escape.
He didn't know if he still had such good fortune...
Or perhaps it wasn't luck, even Orochimaru sometimes felt that perhaps his clone, the White Snake, never escaped Aomi's sight, just that Aomi mercifully spared him a way out.
Perhaps it was remembering his time working in Root?
After all, Aomi was a good superior who kept his promises and even sent him Immortal Technique scrolls from Ryuchi Cave.
Even though with his damaged soul, he could no longer cultivate them...
Would Uchiha Izuna and these few Mangekyo have Aomi's good temperament?
Clearly, at least not towards him.
Especially when Uchiha Madara's eyes revealed terrifying violet ripples, dragging Shimura Danzo's soul out barehanded, Orochimaru extinguished all thoughts of resistance.
This Ninja World was too horrific.
Not only was Uchiha Madara not dead, but he had even awakened the legendary Rinnegan!
Orochimaru's thoughts raced, recalling a red-haired boy, taken as a disciple by Jiraiya during the Second Shinobi World War, who also had eyes like Uchiha Madara's.
Was this a coincidence?
Having seen the Senju Tobirama hidden within Aomi, possessing the Sharingan and Sword of Totsuka...
Orochimaru absolutely did not believe this was a coincidence!
These Warring States Era Konoha powerhouses were not ones to willingly exit the stage of the Ninja World...
