Hatake Tatsuya in Naruto

Chapter 66



Accompanied by A's roar and the eruption of the Hell Stab from his left hand, the battlefield crackled with tension.

"Shh--"

Danzo was caught off guard, and his right arm produced a sound like tearing silk.

In the next moment, a bloody arm soared through the air, landing about ten meters away from the two of them.

"Uh!!!"

Danzo's entire right arm had been severed, and the intense pain forced him to immediately kneel to the ground.

He collapsed to the ground, convulsing in agony. On both sides, all the Shinobi watched in stunned silence.

"Are you trying to be funny?"

After at least half a minute had passed, Tatsuya couldn't help but ask. Although he had observed the battle between Sasuke and Danzo. But watching Danzo fight A, it felt more like he was watching a circus act.

Danzo's laziness in that battle could be compared to a certain pineapple-headed character later down the timeline. Whether it was Kunai vs. Susano, Izanagi as the Body Replacement Technique, forgetting to use Kotoamatsukami or sealing the bridge with his death, it all seemed like a farce.

But now, Tatsuya was speaking from the perspective of a bystander. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that such a foolish ninja existed in the world. It was simply mind-boggling.

After being on the battlefield for just two bouts of punches without accomplishing anything, Danzo had already lost an arm.

The other Konoha Shinobi around were also dumbfounded, and someone muttered, "This frontline commander is unreliable!"

With his rough personality, A had no intention of holding back. He raised his right foot, preparing to deliver a finishing blow to Danzo.

"Guillotine Drop!!" he exclaimed.

Tatsuya, while squinting at A and Danzo's situation and resisting the continuous slashes from Killer B's Seven-sword style, couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Was this a stroke of luck?

Before he could take any action, someone had taken it upon his mission to kill Danzo.

"Wind Style Vacuum Blade!"

"Wind Style Vacuum Blade!"

"Wind Style Vacuum Blade!"

However, life often throws curveballs. It was at the last moment when A's kick was about to strike Danzo's head like a watermelon.

A dozen ninjas from the Shimura family rushed forward, spewing out wind blades from the left and right sides towards A.

If it were his father, the Third Raikage, he would never fear Wind Style at this level. It was not even half as powerful as Naruto's Rasenshuriken. However, A's lightning-style chakra armour was not as robust as his father's.

His pupils shifted left and right, assessing the approaching wind Blades. Finally, he abandoned his attack and swiftly retreated to dodge.

"Master Danzo!"

One of the Shimura Jonin rushed to Danzo's side, holding Danzo's remaining left arm and barely keeping him upright.

"Retreat, retreat!" Danzo's excruciating pain from his severed arm caused cold sweat to bead on his wrinkled face, and he managed to utter those two words through clenched teeth.

The Shimura Jonin heard his command and shouted, "Retreat! It's Lord Danzo's order! Withdraw immediately!"

"Retreat? We've only just begun the fight, haven't we?" Akamichi Choza, a bit further away, who had disarmed the Human Bullet Tank, couldn't believe it.

"Master Danzo lost his arm, and with the commander-in-chief in this state, morale is at its lowest. This is the worst time to retreat," explained Hizashi, who could observe the battlefield within a several-kilometer radius with his Byakugan.

"His hand was chopped? We've barely started the fight!" Choza wore an expression that said, "Are you kidding me?"

Other Konoha Shinobi who heard about it also displayed bewildered expressions. "What kind of leader is this commander-in-chief?"

A, who skillfully avoided a dozen Wind Style attacks, couldn't believe what he was witnessing.

"Isn't this going too smoothly? Are we facing the strongest village in the Ninja world? Have they underestimated us?" In less than half a second, A quickly reacted and shouted, "Don't let them escape! Hunt them down as much as possible!"

Even though they had only dispatched 800 of their Shinobi this time to test Konoha's reinforcements, they hadn't expected such a decisive victory. Given the circumstances, they saw this as a golden opportunity to advance across the board. If they were fortunate, they might even seize territory in the Land of Fire.

"Kill!" The news that Commander Konoha had been incapacitated by their commander spread rapidly throughout Cloud Shinobis. Excitement coursed through everyone, and morale soared to unprecedented heights. They pursued and slashed at Konoha's army like relentless beasts.

In contrast, Konoha's morale hit rock bottom. Many Konoha Shinobi, who had turned to evacuate, were caught off guard and had their heads swiftly severed by the Cloud Shinobi ninjas chasing from behind.

Screams and roars echoed throughout the valley.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!" Nara Shikaku, known for his calm personality, couldn't hold back his frustration and let out a string of curses. He couldn't help but wonder if the situation would have been so dire if it hadn't been for Danzo.

"Yeah, yeah, even I didn't expect the situation to deteriorate to this extent," Tatsuya observed as he watched the Konoha Shinobi falling into a pool of blood. It was as if he were witnessing livestock being slaughtered in a slaughterhouse.

"Master Tatsuya, be careful!" Rin shouted.

Killer B suddenly leapt forward, Seven swords poised for a deadly strike.

Tatsuya took a shallow breath, gripping his sword's handle with both hands in a kendo-standard starting stance.

"Tatsuya-sama!" Seeing Killer B about to descend upon Tatsuya's head, Rin shouted with increasing worry.

"Take YO!!!" Killer B exclaimed.

In the sealed space, Eight Tails' expression suddenly changed. He stood up and shouted, "Idiot! Dodge it!"

Simultaneously, Tatsuya's pupils contracted suddenly, and Killer B's movements appeared to slow down drastically in Tatsuya's eyes at the last moment of the attack.

"Tameshigiri."

In a moment imperceptible to outsiders, Tatsuya's body suddenly took a step forward, but the blade remained in its original position. In reality, he had already raised the knife and swung it down. It was just that others couldn't see it.
