Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Uchiha Akira’s Fierce Resolve, Unleashing the Eight Gates



"What on earth is that!?"

The members of Root were stunned as they watched Shisui Uchiha standing alone, surrounded by a green, skeletal flame-like figure that had just blocked all their attacks. The eerie presence of that spectral skeleton sent chills down their spines.

"Don't let him escape!" Danzo commanded, his eyes narrowing with determination. Although he had successfully taken one of Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan, he knew that the Sharingan's full potential could only be unleashed when both eyes were intact. Sensing that Shisui was on the verge of collapse, Danzo urged his men forward.

Without hesitation, the Root members charged at Shisui. Even though the green flaming skeleton looked terrifying, Root operatives were trained to follow Danzo's orders without question, even if it meant their deaths.

Shisui's left eye glinted with sorrow as he observed the advancing Root members. His original plan had been to use Kotoamatsukami to erase the conflict between the Uchiha clan and the village of Konoha. It was the best solution he could think of.

But he had underestimated Danzo's deep-seated hatred for the Uchiha. Upon learning of Kotoamatsukami's power, Danzo had become so fearful that he resorted to treachery, attacking Shisui.

The Sharingan's true power lies in the synergy of both eyes. Now, with only his left eye remaining, Shisui knew he couldn't use Kotoamatsukami to alter the minds of the Uchiha leaders. Worse, despite everything, he still couldn't bring himself to hate Danzo enough to kill him. If he were to kill Danzo, the rift between the Uchiha and the village elders would only deepen, leaving no room for reconciliation.

"Second Gate, Gate of Healing, open!"

"Third Gate, Gate of Life, open!"

Boom!

In an instant, Akira's chakra flared wildly as he opened the first three gates of the Eight Gates technique. His aura exploded, and his skin turned bright red, as though he had been boiled alive, giving him a fearsome appearance.

Akira's chakra levels had already been near those of a Jonin. Now, with the first three gates open, his chakra output skyrocketed.

"Akira!" Shisui called out, alarmed by the immense chakra radiating from Akira. He tried to stop him.

Normally, Akira would heed Shisui's words, but today, he was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins. He charged straight at Danzo with unbridled fury.

There are some things you can suppress when they're just words on a screen in a simulator. But when you witness them firsthand, it's impossible to hold back.
