Chapter 229: The End of His Road
"Water Release..." An orb of water manifested in front of Ino. "Water Dragon Whip!"
Sharp tendrils of water shot out from within the orb, all aimed at a single target.
Sai grunted in pain as he jumped away to avoid the water constructs and heard them impact the stone ground behind him, destroying everything in their path.
He then stood up and charged at Ino.
Even without his tools to create ink constructs, Sai was still an expert in taijutsu. He sent a barrage of punches and kicks at Ino as she struggled to block them.
"Urgh!" Ino received an impact on her belly and went tumbling down.
During all of this, Naruto watched their fight but did nothing to intervene or help her. This was her fight, and if she couldn't defeat this injured opponent, then perhaps he had been wrong in his assessment of her.
On the other side of the chamber, Danzo was busy dealing with his clones. Waves of wind, water, and other elements were mixed with the occasional Wood Release attack.
A loud splash of water was then heard. Sai tried to attack Ino with a flying kick aimed at her face, but instead ended up hitting a water clone.
The real Ino emerged from the ground and immediately took control of the remaining water around Sai.
"Water Release... Water Prison!"
The water moved extremely quickly, forming a sphere that trapped Sai inside.
The young man struggled to escape while Ino did her best to keep him there.
Naruto saw the conflict in her. This wasn't just difficult because she had to maintain her focus on the jutsu, but because she was slowly killing someone.
Because of her inner conflict, the water prison weakened, allowing Sai to escape it.
The black-haired ninja wasted no time after getting out and lunged directly at her, with the intent to end her.
By the memories he had received from the destroyed clones, he knew that they had killed Danzo twice.
"So that's what's keeping you alive. Every time you die, one of those closes," Naruto commented.
He kept his attention on Danzo's expression and was able to see tiny changes on the old man's face.
"If I kill you five more times, that Sharingan will close, and you'll stay dead then, but... what a waste of resources."
"U... Uzumaki..." Danzo muttered as he tried to stand back up.
Naruto's blue eyes were cold as ice. "Rip his arm off."
The clones moved without hesitation.
Danzo had no more strength to resist and could only scream as the clones removed his modified limb.
Like he did with the extracted right eye, Naruto stored it inside a scroll.
If looks could kill, then the look of rage that the elder was giving him with his only remaining eye would have done the trick.
"Elder Shimura... don't forget that it has been your own failure...to believe that you could take something from me without consequences," Naruto lifted his right hand.
"No more protections?... Any last words at least?"
Danzo's body was starting to convulse, and his skin was growing paler due to the blood loss, but he still found the strength to speak once more.
"Y-you... you will... perish at t-their... hand."
"Hmm... I expected you to say something more insulting, or personal. Instead you gave me a vague threat...how disappointing," he snapped his fingers, summoning a high-pressure blast of wind that destroyed the upper torso of Danzo without resistance.
This time... he did not come back.
"Now..." Naruto got the attention of his remaining clones. There were still over two thousand of them inside the chamber. "Clean this place up. If you find more of those mas
ked ninjas, you know what to do."
Naruto turned around and began to walk away. "I have a lady to take home."
