Chapter 724: Chapter – 717 Why can’t it be me?
Danzō asked in disbelief, "How can you be the leader of Amatsukami?!"
Kuroto questioned curiously, "Why can't it be me?!"
Danzō asked, "The overall strength of the Amatsukami Organization far surpasses even that of the Akatsuki Organization, not to mention any other shinobi village out there. As for the identity of the leader Yama, I have been investigating for many years now, but I haven't been able to get any clue, not a damn single clue! So… how… how could it be you? You were right under my nose all along!"
Looking at the stupefied Danzō, Kuroto chuckled lightly, "To be honest, it's all your credit… The reason I became the leader of Amatsukami, heck the very reason I created Amatsukami, it's all because of you… You wanted to destroy the Uchiha Clan, but I didn't want that to happen… at the same time, I didn't want to attract any attention to myself, so I secretly created Amatsukami… if not for you, perhaps Amatsukami wouldn't even exist. And ever since the conflict with the Akatsuki Organization increased, Amatsukami is protecting Konoha."
Hearing Kuroto's words, Danzō became speechless, "You… you!"
He thought of all the things Amatsukami had done in the past, and he was surprised to find that he couldn't deny that the actions of Amatsukami indeed protected Uchiha Clan from being exterminated. At the same time, Amatsukami is also protecting Konoha from the threat of the Akatsuki Organization.
Thinking of all this, Danzō became more and more speechless. He still can't believe that the person behind all of this is a boy from the Hyuga branch who had been living right under his nose all along…!
This is too absurd for him to believe!
"Heh… you are having a really hard time accepting this fact, now think about the Akatsuki Organization… the founder of the Akatsuki organization… Yahiko–who died because of your plotting with Hanzō of the Salamander from Kirigakure–was Jiraiya-sama's disciple… even the current leader Nagato is Jiraiya-sama's disciple and a member of the Uzumaki Clan so not only the leader of Amatsukami… but even the leader of the Akatsuki Organization is also related to Konoha in one way or another…" said Kuroto.
In fact, not just Yahiko, and Nagato, but even Obito the leader of Akatsuki on the dark side is also from Konoha. Even the mastermind responsible for bringing Nagato and Obito to this path, Uchiha Madara is also from Konoha!
So, it's not wrong to say that the core of the Akatsuki Organization is from Konohagakure.
As for Amatsukami? There is really no need to talk about them.
In conclusion, it won't be wrong to say that both Amatsukami and Akatsuki who are coercing and dominating the Shinobi World are all people of Konoha fighting among themselves, all along, it has been infighting and internal conflict within Konoha that has swept the entire Shinobi Wolrd and nothing more.
Hearing Kuroto's words, Danzō's expression became sluggish.
What Kuroto just said completely subverted his knowledge of the two organizations and of Konoha Village.
But soon, Danzō took a deep breath ignored everything, and focused on the matter of evolution of his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, "Whether you truly are the leader of Amatsukami or not… none of that matters now… The moment my eyes evolve, even if it is you, I will crush you!"
"Heh… is that what you think?" Kuroto smirked and glanced at the short black blade that was piercing Danzō's body.
"Such a small injury isn't worth mentioning… I have Shodaime Hokage-sama's cel–!" Just halfway through his words, Danzō couldn't help but again vomit out blood… At the same time, he was surprised to find that the place where he was stabbed by Kuroto had become completely numb and this numbness is constantly spreading.
Swish!
Seeing Danzō a little panicked, Kuroto suddenly pulled out the short black blade, and while playing with it in his hand, he explained, "This is no ordinary blade, in fact, it's not even a blade… it's known as Truth-Seeking Orb, it's actually the fusion of all seven chakra natures. Unless you have Six Path Chakra or Senjutsu Chakra, then let alone fight, you can't even survive once you touch this thing… your body will disintegrate, no matter how strong your recovery is… so you see…"
"Truth-Seeking Orb?!" Danzō muttered in confusion and fear as he listened to Kuroto's explanation.
He has gone through the Kekkei Genkai Absorption Ritual, so he can somewhat understand the implication of the fusion of seven chakra natures.
While Danzō's face turned pale, Kuroto continued, "When you chose to absorb her Visual Prowess instead of running away, you missed your chance to escape… now, death is the only thing you will get, there is no way to escape that."
"No…! I won't accept this! How can I die like this!?" Danzō shouted and used his free hand to attack Kuroto.
Boom!
Instantly, countless tree vines rose from the ground and swarmed Kuroto.
However, they weren't able to do any damage as Kuroto just molded the Truth-Seeking Orb in his hand into a sharp rotating double-edged knife and cut down all the vines. No matter how many tree vines kept coming, they couldn't get close to his body and kept turning into ash.
Danzō was taken aback, "How is this possible? My Wood Release is as strong as Shodaime Hokage-sama… it is of no effect?"
Hearing Danzō's words, Kuroto was speechless, "Either you are a complete idiot, or a completely ignorant, or maybe too arrogant, you haven't even touched the threshold of Senjutsu and you dare to compare your Wood Release to Shodaime Hokage-sama…?"
Of course, even if it was Shodaime Hokage-sama's wood Release, it wouldn't have been that much trouble for Kuroto. But Kuroto was too lazy to bother to deal with Danzō anymore and just with a wave of his hand, he released a strong push force from his hand and destroyed all the trees at once.
As Kuroto used Shinra Tensei, his eyes glowed for a moment and attracted Danzō's attention… seeing those eyes, Danzō was taken aback and exclaimed, "Your eyes… they are not Byakugan! Whose eyes did you transplant?"
Kuroto replied in a flat tone as he stepped forward, "Why would I transplant someone else's eyes? These are my own!"
Danzō shook his head and took a step back, "No, it's impossible! You are a Hyuga… how can you have any Dōjutsu other than Byakugan? You must have stolen someone else's eyes! Answer me! Whose eyes did you steal?!"
Kuroto snorted, "Just because you like to steal other's Dōjutsu, you think others are the same?" and explained, "The Uchiha's Sharingan can evolve into Mangekyō Sharingan, Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, and the Rinnegan… Why can't Hyuga's Byakugan evolve?"
"Evolution of Byakugan?" Danzō's eyes widened in shock, "Is that really possible?!"
"These Tenseigan of mine are the proof that Byakugan can evolve!"

Chapter 725: Chapter – 718 Evolution or Death?
"Tenseigan?!"
Staring at Kuroto's Dōjutsu that seemed to twinkle like stars, Danzō was fascinated and couldn't even look anywhere else and seemed to be drawn in by the beauty and power that those eyes seem to contain.
If it was until a few days ago, Danzō would have never believed that Hyuga's Byakugan would have such a beautiful and powerful evolution. This is the main reason why Danzō always only focused his attention on the Uchiha Clan, not on the Hyuga Clan.
Although Danzō had always hated the Uchiha Clan, he has never been able to deny that their Kekkei Genkai Sharingan is the most wonderful Kekkei Genkai, not only does Sharingan provide a lot of bonuses to their users, but Sharingan also has several evolutionary stages, and the best part is that Sharingan can also be used to cast Izanagi!
In the face of all the abilities that come with Sharingan, the Byakugan naturally pales… so even though both Sharingan and Byakugan are part of the three Great Dōjutsu just like the Rinnegan, Danzō has never given the same value to the Byakugan.
But now that he is seeing Kuroto's Dōjutsu, Danzō feels like an idiot for judging that Byakugan can't evolve… and come to think of it, the evolution of Byakugan seems much stronger than the evolution of Sharingan… after all, Mangekyō Sharingan doesn't seem to be as powerful as the Tenseigan… Although he feels that if his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan evolves again, he will gain a Dōjutsu as powerful or more powerful than Kuroto's Tenseigan… but that's not the point!
The point is, "No wonder both Sharingan and Byakugan are part of the three Great Dōjutsu!" Or maybe it should be said that not Sharingan and Byakugan, but their evolutions are!
While Danzō was lost in thought, Shisui and Itachi were able to use this opportunity to break through the obstruction of Wooden vines and rush toward the center of the battlefield.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
"Kuroto-san!" Seeing Kuroto present on the battlefield in person, both Shisui and Itachi breathed a sigh of relief.
Like every other shinobi in this world, the image of Kuroto aka Yama being the strongest has been itched in their hearts, so they are much more relieved about the outcome of the battle knowing that Kuroto is around.
Seeing Shisui and Itachi arrive, Kuroto looked at them and nodded lightly.
Danzō also turned his gaze at the two of them and roared, "Uchiha Shisui… And Uchiha Itachi too…! You too… how dare you two…! All this while the two of you have been making a fool of me and everyone!"
For the identity of Shisui, Danzō had already recognized that the moment he laid his eyes upon Shisui's Susano'o, as for Itachi… because of all the fighting and destruction of countless tree vines, at some point Itachi's mask broke, revealing his face.
Of course, Itachi did have the option of covering his face with another temporary mask, however, seeing that even Kuroto was present in person while not wearing the mask, Itachi didn't bother allowing Danzō to recognize him.
And as Danzō realized that both Yama and male Homusubi were lurking right under his nose strutting freely back and forth in the village, Danzō became more and more enraged.
Shisui and Itachi ignored Danzō's words and worriedly looked at the unconscious Tsukihi who was still held by Danzō.
Worried, Itachi called out to Tsukihi, "Tsukihi-san… are you… are you all right?!"
Seeing Itachi's worried expression, Danzō smirked coldly and lifted Tsukihi higher into the sky, as he said menacingly while tightening his grip, "What do you think?"
Because there is no soul present inside Tsukihi's body it very much looks close to death.
Danzō's action angered Itachi, his face became gloomy and he looked at Danzō murderously as if he would kill him instantly if something happened to Tsukihi.
Although not as much as Itachi, Shisui was also very angry, at the same time, he also felt extremely guilty for such a state of Tsukihi and apologized to Kuroto, "Kuroto-san… I am sorry… we underestimated Danzō's strength… he turned out to be much stronger than we had expected, now it seems only you can stop him!"
Kuroto shook his head and said lightly, "Don't worry about her… the moment I arrived here, the matter was already solved, so the two of you don't have to worry anymore."
Shisui was taken aback, "Already?"
Kuroto nodded, "Mm-hmm… He has no chance of surviving!"
Shisui breathed a sigh of relief, "Really Kuroto-san…"
Kuroto didn't lie… the moment he came here, he knew that his chances of winning were a hundred percent, even if any surprises came, the chances would only be reduced by ten percent, and Danzō would still die.
How can Kuroto be so sure?
To answer that question, let's first talk about something else.
Actually, killing Danzō is a bit of a headache… this is not because Kuroto can't defeat Danzō, it's because once Kuroto defeats him, he will use Izanagi to change his fate. Given Danzō's character, he would use Izanagi without a doubt, since Danzō doesn't have any Sharingan other than the pair of Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan so using Izanagi would mean permanent blindness of Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. But Kuroto doesn't want that, he has no idea of how to restore the vision and power of those eyes… so can't allow Danzō to use Izanagi.
Precisely because of this concern, Kuroto didn't directly fight Danzō using his main body… because he knows that he would be able to easily defeat Danzō which would result in Danzō wasting the Visual Prowess of Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
So, he fought against Danzō using the Tsukihi clone, his intention was to use Tsukihi's Visual Prowess to affect Danzō's Visual Prowess, although the plan didn't work out the way he had intended and Danzō was able to start absorbing her own Visual Prowess, however, she quickly noticed that while Danzō is absorbing Visual Prowess he can not use any other Sharingan abilities, including Izanagi, and while he is absorbing Visual Prowess, he can't stop in between otherwise all the effort will become waste.
This means no use of Izanagi if he wants to evolve his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan!
After Kuroto figured out the problem on Danzō's end, he immediately ejected his soul out of Tsukihi's body and came to the battlefield in person.
And now it's time to put an end to Danzō's life.
Looking at Kuroto taking steps forward, Danzō panicked… he took a step back and pointed his hand at Tsukihi's pretty face as he roared, "Take a step forward and I will immediately kill her! You should be able to see that she is still alive, only unconscious… if you move a single step, I will kill her!"
Kuroto smirked, and said as he continued walking towards Danzō, "Whether you kill her or not, you aren't escaping today."
Kuroto knows that Danzō is only bluffing, he wouldn't dare do that as killing Homusubi would also mean forever giving up the opportunity to evolve his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. So, rather than being a hostage, Tsukihi is more like a shackle on Danzō restricting him from using Izanagi.
Seeing Kuroto unmoved by his warning, Danzō mistakenly thought that Kuroto was also a ruthless person and didn't care about the safety of his subordinates, after all, he is such a person, so he no longer bothered to threaten him with Tsukihi's life and decided to use Ninjutsu.
One after another, Danzō used all the Kekkei Genkai and Jutsu from all the seven chakra natures that he knows, but all proved fruitless as Kuroto simply absorbed the ones he could and dodged the ones he couldn't.
Looking at Kuroto getting closer and closer to him, and feeling his eyes getting closer and closer to evolution, Danzō's mind started to get crazy in fear and excitement, "No… no stay away… almost… almost… just a few more steps…!"
The only thing Danzō didn't understand is that the closer he is approaching to acquiring the evolved eyes, the closer he is getting to his death!
Even now if Danzō stops absorbing Tsukihi's Visual Prowess, there might be some chance that he can escape his coming death, however, he doesn't even consider that possibility because of his obsession and greed for power.
At this moment, a change started to appear in Danzō's eyes, and sensing that change, Kuroto stopped deliberately dawdling and made his move.
