Chapter 647: From Expected to Unexpected

“Damn…”

With each passing second, Danzo’s countenance on the altar became increasingly contorted. He appeared to be drowning, frantically grasping at anything he could find in the hope of finding a ‘life-saving straw’ that did not exist!

He shouted loudly, and his roar was like a low-pitched roar that didn’t sound like a human voice, but rather like the roar of an evil spirit in the netherworld, which caused the hairs on the backs of others’ necks to stand on end.

Danzo stumbled when it came to the evolution of the soul, and as a result, the fusion of all the Kekkei Genkai in his body came to a halt. Observing the pair of Mangekyou Sharingan in his eye sockets reveals this fact.

Sharingan is the Dojutsu that represents the soul, and the pair of Mangekyou Sharingan in Danzo’s eye sockets also represents the ritual’s progression at this time.

The presence of different Chakra Natures in his body, the efficiency of fusion of all those different Chakra Natures, and the speed of fusion of all those different Chakra Natures are all directly reflected by the pair of Mangekyou Sharingan, and it wouldn’t be incorrect to say that that pair of Mangekyou Sharingan in his eyes is the most accurate indicator of the ritual’s progress.

And, based on Homusubi’s observations on the newly evolved pair of Mangekyou Sharingan, the merging of all the Chakra natures in his body has actually ceased.

“Is it the end?” she sighed as she realized this. At this point, even she isn’t sure whether the sigh is one of disappointment or one of relief. Homusubi couldn’t decide whether she should be relieved that the ceremony had come to an end or if she should be disappointed that it had come to an end.

After all, Danzo’s chances of succeeding in the ritual were as low as two percent, yet that little chance did exist. If Danzo had gotten extremely lucky and managed to successfully absorb all of the Kekkei Genkai in this ritual with the goddess of luck’s blessing, he would have posed a significant threat to Amatsukami and the Shinobi World, especially since he now has a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan with unknown and mysterious abilities, as well as Hashirama Cells and the other five Kekkei Genkai in his body.

With so many powerful Kekkei Genkai, if Danzo does not die, he will undoubtedly cause difficulties that Amatsukami does not like to deal with at this time.

Homusubi–who had been frightened up until now–began to conclude the complete procedure after inhaling a choking breath.

‘Let’s see… Chimera Jutsu has improved, and the ceremony’s intended features appear to be in good working order… This time, the preview was more successful than I had anticipated.’

‘However, the issue of ‘Chimera Bud’s’ unexpected hostile behavior and Danzo’s loss of control over it is something to consider… Maybe I should conduct some investigation on this…’

To be honest, Homusubi is rather content with this practice. The first and second stages of the ritual, which comprised devouring and fusion, went off without a hitch; everything virtually went according to Homusubi’s expectations, and the entire process was exceedingly seamless, which was a huge relief.

This clearly indicates that the advancements in ‘Chimera Jutsu’, as well as the ritual ceremony’s arrangement, are quite good and that Kuroto may employ a similar design for his own ascendance.



Homusubi came up with these ideas while standing calmly in the same spot, waiting for Danzo to die entirely so she could get her hands on the pair of Mangekyou Sharingan in Danzo’s eyes.

Not everyone, however, was as peaceful and quiet as Homusubi because of the failure of the ritual.

When the Root shinobi inside the volcano realized Danzo was likely to perish, they were concerned.

“Orochimaru, do something…,” Danzo’s chief researcher exclaimed as he hurried towards Orochimaru. “You must come up with a plan to rescue Hokage-sama’s life!”

“Just wait and watch…” murmured Orochimaru, who didn’t blink for a second and kept his gaze fixed on the ritual altar.

Homusubi grimaced as he heard Orochimaru’s comments.

Anyone with perceptive eyes can see that Danzo’s situation is dire and that saving him is nearly impossible. Orochimaru, on the other hand, stated these remarks with such serenity… this is unusual.

Homusubi could think of two reasons for Orochimaru’s composure when speaking such statements.

To begin with, Orochimaru, like her, knows exactly why Danzo faltered and failed; as a result, he is unsurprised and has calmly accepted the reality.

Second, Orochimaru is likely to have something up his sleeve that he hasn’t used yet.

Homusubi believes that the first possibility is not the case here, implying that the second option is more plausible and that the ritual has not yet been completed as she thought initially.

And her hunch turned out to be true…

At this point, Danzo, who was urgently attempting to stay alive, came to a halt, looked disoriented, and whispered, “This… what’s going on?” “Can you tell me where I am?”

Homusubi frowned and whispered in amazement as she gazed at Danzo “Is it what I believe it to be? Danzo’s soul was defeated by the other souls in his body, and he now has no control over it?”

Homusubi can be certain that these words were not spoken by Shimura Danzo because the tone of voice and the way of speaking were both different from what she was used to.

Orochimaru grinned, then swiftly weaved the hand gestures and screamed, “Kai!” as Homusubi was stunned.

A series of black symbols erupted out of Danzo’s flesh in an instant, and they spread all over his body in the blink of an eye.

“Curse Seal? When did he put it in Danzo’s body? Is it possible that it happened during the transformation process?” Homusubi expressed her skepticism with a whispered remark.

These sign markings are plainly familiar to Homusubi… This is Orochimaru’s Curse seal, which he created utilizing his own Chakra and Jugo’s DNA makeup that has the power to absorb Natural Energy dissipated in Heaven and Earth.

And, as far as Homusubi could tell, Orochimaru’s sole opportunity of implanting the Curse on Danzo’s body was during the transformation procedure.

Because neither Homusubi nor the chief researcher of Root has as much knowledge in the field of Body Transformation as Orochimaru, effectively supervising all of his actions was a difficult task; additionally, Danzo’s guard was a little down against Orochimaru during the transformation operation, so that was the ideal opportunity for Orochimaru.

And, in retrospect, he did make the most of that perfect opportunity.

Now back to the ritual in front.

New alterations occurred once the Curse seal implanted on Danzo was activated.

The pair of Mangekyou Sharingan in Danzo’s eye socket began to transform, even though his expression remained a little lethargic. The black inner circles of the metallic gear-like pattern in the scarlet wheel began to gently rotate again, indicating that… “The fusion of several Chakra Natures has been re-established!” Homusubi screamed in disbelief!

She glanced at Orochimaru in astonishment and clicked her tongue in annoyance, ‘Tch, I underestimated him… It appears that he devised a solution to the problem of soul fusion…’

Orochimaru’s implanting of such a seal on Danzo is proof of this.





However, Orochimaru’s approach to solving the problem is barbarous… ‘Destroying everyone’s souls isn’t the way to go!’ she reasoned.

Orochimaru’s strategy is to use Natural Energy’s erosive tendency to dissolve the souls of others by eroding the Chakra that bears a person’s soul signature. If that particular Chakra vanishes, the soul will inevitably vanish as well.

Although this strategy works, Homusubi believes it is terribly barbarous and will undoubtedly cause future difficulties.

And the ritual’s next phase unfolded exactly as Homusubi had predicted.

All of the souls in Danzo’s body began to erode as Natural Energy invaded; as a result, the conflict between different souls reduced, and the sluggish ritual progressed once again.

As the ritual advanced, the pair of Mangekyou Sharingan in Danzo’s eyes began to evolve even further…

The pattern changed a little, and the black sections got a little bigger…

Those eyes have evolved yet again…

“Those are the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan?” muttered Homusubi, “From a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan to a pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, this time.”

And, after seeing this sight, Homusubi, who had been able to retain her equanimity up until now, could no longer do so.

Never in her wildest dreams could she imagine such a dramatic change of events tonight.

The ritual ceremony has now veered off into unpredictable territory!

Even Orochimaru was taken aback… He glanced at the pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan with a desperate look in his serpent-like eyes and whispered in shock… “It turns out that Mangekyou Sharingan isn’t the final phase of Sharingan evolution… There’s still another level above…”
