Fan-sized snowflakes drifted down, and gusts of bone-chilling wind blew.
The boundless blood moon in the sky had already begun to fade, and it was coated with a layer of white frost, gradually returning to its silver-white glow.
The blood-colored ground was also covered in snow, forming a thick layer of snow. The dazzling red light had already faded by a lot.
Danzō stood in the void, and his old face felt the howling cold wind. His eyes were filled with uncontrollable surprise. The power of Kotoamatsukami was absolute. He had tried his best to steal it from Shisui, but he didn't expect to be defeated the first time he used it.
"Sensei, Kotoamatsukami is indeed very strong, but my Hyorinmaru is also very strong. If the original owner of the eye used it, the outcome might be different. After all, your body is not compatible with the eye, and there is no way you can unleash its true power."
A huge ice dragon swooped down. Aoyama stood on top of the ice dragon's head with his sword in his right hand, and returned to his Sage Mode. A pair of white dragon horns spread out in all directions, and his golden-red eyes shone brightly. The red eyeshadow was long and narrow, and seven or eight dragons were wrapping around his body.
"Kotoamatsukami can be defeated?" Danzō's eyes were filled with disbelief, but he was worthy of being called a man who had lived for so many years. He quickly calmed down and stared quietly at Aoyama. "I thought victory was in my hands, but it turned out to be a futile effort. How laughable!"
Hearing Danzō's self-mockery, Aoyama raised an eyebrow. "Sensei, you are too humble. Kotoamatsukami's ability to change the will is not fake. It has already weakened most of my power from the beginning. What you used before was probably only ten or twenty percent of its power."
"Eh?"
Danzō was a little confused. Although he had stolen Shisui's eye, it didn't mean that he could use it perfectly. This was the first time he had used Kotoamatsukami, and he didn't notice any abnormalities.
Aoyama didn't say anything else. He released Hyorinmaru in his Sage Mode, and almost immediately entered a state where he looked down on all living things. That supreme state of mind would not allow the illusion to affect him, and he directly clashed with Kotoamatsukami's power.
The result of the collision between the two powers was very fortunate. The supreme state of mind was destroyed by Kotoamatsukami's power, but Kotoamatsukami also consumed a lot of its power, and the remaining power was very weak. Aoyama could use Hyorinmaru's power to break it.
Danzo didn't understand what she meant, but he soon forgot about it. He looked at Yuehua coldly, waved his hand, and the illusion world began to collapse. The full moon in the sky shattered, and the snow-covered earth below also collapsed. Even Danzo himself turned into fluorescent light and dissipated.
"I've lost this battle."
The scene in front of him suddenly changed. Danzō was standing in the middle of the practice field. Aoyama was holding Hyorinmaru in his hand, and the ice wings behind his back were gently flapping. The dragon on his body was showing off its claws, and the most important thing was that the three twelve-petaled ice flowers behind his head had not withered at all.
The time in the illusion world was very long. The entanglement with Danzō took a very long time, but in the real world, it was only a second.
"Since you have broken Kotoamatsukami, my other means are no match for you. Aoyama, you are now the new leader of Root." Danzō admitted defeat, but he was still cold and emotionless.
He has received a lot of information, so he knows how strong Aoyama is. Chou 3, Mao 9, and other Jonin were all defeated by Aoyama, which is enough to prove how strong Aoyama is. He is not his opponent in a one-on-one fight.
Aoyama didn't feel strange about his sensei's actions. After all, they are master and disciple. He won't really fight to the death. That would be useless. He is a master who can squeeze oil out of bones. He will not waste anything that can be used, including himself. After all, he is the madman who left the Four Symbols Seal on his body.
Of course, in Danzō's eyes, he will not be stingy when it is necessary. For example, he allowed Chou 3 and Mao 9 to send people to assassinate him.
"Let's go out together."
Danzō rewrapped the bandage and covered all of his Sharingan. He pulled out the crutch that was stabbed into the ground and slowly walked out, not caring about Aoyama's reaction at all.
Aoyama also didn't mind. He also deactivated his Bankai and Sage Mode, sheathed his sword, and walked out half a step behind Danzō.
Underground passage.
"Danzō -sama …" Chou 3 saw Danzō, and at the same time, he also noticed Aoyama who was following behind. Chou 3 didn't know what to say.
"You guys are actually still alive? Your vitality is really tenacious. "Aoyama shook his head. Just now, when the Virtual Snake bit their bones, it didn't show any mercy at all.
"We all know a bit of medical ninjutsu. Although we are unable to use it, the wound wasn't big to begin with. As long as we control the blood loss, we should be able to hold on for a period of time. Furthermore, it has only been less than 2 minutes …" Chou 3 explained. At the same time, he thought that he didn't hear any sounds of fighting.
Aoyama blinked his eyes and came back to his senses. Kotoamatsukami still had some influence on him, causing him to subconsciously think that a long time had passed, but in reality, not much time had passed.
"Teacher, how should we deal with these people?" Aoyama asked casually.
"Why are you asking me? You are now the new leader, and they are your subordinates. Whether you want to kill them or save them, it is all up to you. Didn't you say that I can't handle things at my age? "Danzō sneered coldly.
Aoyama's eyes immediately rolled. I didn't expect that this teacher would be so serious, his words made me roll my eyes.
However, I didn't get angry. In any case, my teacher is famous for having a weird temper, and I have long learned not to take these things to heart. Instead, I am seriously considering how to deal with Chou 3 and the others.
"You guys just wait, in a while, there will be medical ninjas coming to save you guys. If you guys are able to hold on until then, then consider yourself lucky, and let bygones be bygones. If you guys aren't able to hold on until then, then that is what you guys deserve." Aoyama left behind his words, then ignored Chou 3 who let out a sigh of relief and quickly chased after Danzō who was walking far away.
"Lord Chou 3, will we be able to survive?" A person at the side couldn't help but ask.
"I also don't know. Everyone, just try your best to hold on. A bad life is better than a good death. Even if we die, we must die on the battlefield, die in a mission, die in our own base, that would really make people unhappy …" After Chou 3 finished speaking, he shut his mouth tightly, conserving his strength and calmly waiting for the ethereal rescue.
Above Root's base.
Azusa He's expression was gloomy. The gloomy clouds in the sky suddenly dissipated, and the whistling gales stopped abruptly. All of these indicated that the battle below had already ended, and no one knew what the outcome was.
Especially Azusa, who was feeling anxious and uneasy. However, seeing that there were no changes in Shi Yuan and Shi Yuan, Azusa was able to suppress the irritation in her heart.
