Chapter 34: The Power of the Mangekyō Sharingan

At this moment, Naruto's eyes flashed, and he activated his Mangekyō Sharingan. Powerful pupil power instantly spread.

In those eyes, strange patterns swirled like a vortex, deep and mysterious. Danzo was instantly pulled into a space by the powerful pupil power.

Danzo felt the scene suddenly change in front of him. All around him was a land of ice and snow, with a howling wind and bone-chilling cold. The ice beneath his feet kept making crackling sounds, as if it would collapse at any time.

He looked around vigilantly, only to find himself in an endless maze of ice and snow. With every step he took, he could hear the cold wind whistling in his ears, like the low hum of a ghost.

Suddenly, a huge figure appeared in front of him. Danzo looked closely and found that it was a giant made of ice. The giant swung a huge ice fist and smashed down at Danzo.

Danzo dodged quickly, secretly shocked in his heart: "What kind of illusion is this? It's so realistic!"

Just as he was still in shock, he heard a sharp sound of ice spikes growing behind him. Looking back, he saw countless sharp ice spikes coming towards him at an extremely fast speed.

Danzo dodged left and right, exhausted. At this moment, Naruto's cold voice rang in his ears: "Danzo, feel this endless fear!"

Danzo gritted his teeth and tried to concentrate on finding a way to break the illusion. But in the space created by the powerful Mangekyō Sharingan, his efforts seemed so pale and powerless.

Sweat rolled down Danzo's forehead, and he desperately formed seals, trying to break free of the shackles of this illusion. However, the power of Naruto's Mangekyō Sharingan was not so easy to break free of.

Just when Danzo was feeling desperate, the scene in the space changed again. The original world of ice and snow disappeared, replaced by a dark abyss, with countless pairs of blood-red eyes flashing in the darkness, as if to devour his soul.

Danzo's heartbeat accelerated rapidly. He had never experienced such a terrifying illusion. "You bastard!" He roared, but his voice was filled with undisguised fear.

At this moment, Naruto in reality was looking coldly at Danzo who was trapped in the space illusion. He knew that the battle was about to end.

In the illusionary space, the ground under Danzo's feet suddenly turned into quicksand, and his body began to sink uncontrollably. He struggled desperately, but he sank deeper and deeper.

"It's over, Danzo!" said Naruto.

As Naruto finished speaking, Danzo's eyes went dark and he completely lost consciousness.

In reality, Danzo fell from a space vortex, and Naruto walked over and took away Shisui's Sharingan in Danzo's right eye.

Then he looked at the unconscious Danzo and activated the power of the Byakuran, teleporting away from the root.

In the Uchiha clan, in the home of Uchiha Itachi, Itachi sat alone in the courtyard with an expressionless face. Shisui's death was like an extremely heavy hammer, hitting his heart with a huge force.

His eyes were empty and confused, and his usual calmness and composure in the past were now completely swallowed up by the sadness and pain that surged like a tide. Shisui, the close friend who had fought side by side with him and given each other absolute trust, left so suddenly, which made Itachi feel as if the whole world collapsed in an instant.

His heart seemed to be cut by countless sharp blades. Every time he recalled Shisui's warm smile and sincere words, the piercing pain became more intense, like oil boiling over a raging fire. His hands unconsciously clenched into fists, his nails dug deep into his palms, blood oozed out, but he was completely unaware.

Itachi's heart was filled with self-blame and regret. He hated himself for not being able to protect Shisui, and even more so for being so helpless and powerless between his family and the village. The flame of anger burned fiercely in his chest, but was mercilessly extinguished by the despair as cold as winter.

He felt deeply lonely and helpless, as if he was in a bottomless dark abyss. He searched everywhere but could not find even a glimmer of light and hope. He gritted his teeth and suppressed all his emotions in his heart, because he knew that at this moment he had to be as strong as iron and make a difficult choice for the unknown future.

However, no matter how hard he tried to suppress his emotions, Shisui's death was like a hideous wound that would never heal, stinging his soul all the time, and tormenting him with painful memories in every silent night.

At this moment, a figure wearing an ice sculpture mask and a white gold windbreaker appeared beside him. The figure was as silent as a ghost, but Itachi was able to detect the other party's presence immediately.

The mask covered most of the visitor's face, revealing only a pair of eyes that sparkled with mysterious light. The white gold-threaded windbreaker fluttered gently in the breeze, reflecting a faint light, looking luxurious and mysterious.

Itachi turned his head and looked at the mysterious man who suddenly appeared calmly, secretly guessing the other party's intention. Naruto also said nothing, just stood there quietly, and there seemed to be an invisible tension between him and Itachi.

After a moment of silence, Itachi was the first to break the silence, his voice low and cold: "Who are you, and why are you here?"

The mysterious man moved slightly, still without answering, but his eyes seemed to hide deep intentions.

Itachi frowned even more tightly, and his alertness became stronger: "If you don't make your intention clear, don't blame me for being rude."

Naruto then slowly spoke, his voice seemed to come from far away, with an indescribable sense of ethereality: "Uchiha Itachi, I know the pain and confusion in your heart..."

Itachi snorted, "What do you know?"

Naruto sighed softly: "Shisui's death, the future of the family, these are like heavy shackles, weighing you down and making you breathless."

Itachi's eyes grew colder, "What's the point of saying this? Who are you?"

Naruto raised his head slightly: "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I can help you get out of this predicament."

Itachi laughed sarcastically, "Just you?"

Naruto said slowly: "The Uchiha clan is on the brink of crisis, and the Konoha high-level officials are eyeing you covetously. If you continue to hesitate, the consequences will be disastrous."

Itachi remained silent, but his mind was full of thoughts.

Naruto continued, "I have a way to keep the Uchiha clan safe and to stop you from suffering so much."

Itachi raised his head and looked directly at the mysterious man: "What are the conditions?"

Naruto lowered his voice: "I need you, and you must obey."

Itachi frowned, "Why should I trust you?"

At this time, Naruto's eyes changed, and the scarlet three-magatama Sharingan appeared in his eyes.

Itachi's originally calm expression was instantly filled with surprise, and he exclaimed, "Sharingan! Are you also from the Uchiha clan? Who are you?"

Naruto was not surprised by Itachi's expression, and then said slowly: "Come with me, I will take you to see someone." After that, without caring whether Itachi agreed or not, he put his hand on Itachi's shoulder.

In an instant, a flash of light appeared, and the two of them teleported to the riverside in the valley. The river was gurgling, making a crisp sound. The surrounding trees were lush and green, and the breeze blew, making the leaves rustle.

Itachi quickly looked around, his eyes still wary, and asked, "Where is this? Who are you taking me to?"

Naruto crossed his arms, looked at the river, and said slowly: "Don't worry, he will be here soon."

After a while, a figure slowly walked out of the woods...
