Chapter 38
Among everyone present earlier, Yamanaka Fu was purely a sensory ninja.
If Neiki had replaced Torune Aburame, even with his exceptional disguise skills and thorough knowledge of Root habits, he still would have been detected by Fu, an elite of the Yamanaka clan who could sense mental abnormalities.
Therefore, unless he killed Fu during his time at the Uchiha compound, Neiki had no plans to ambush Danzo.
It was a spur-of-the-moment decision.
His original target was Fugaku's eyes, with killing Danzo being an unexpected bonus.
Fugaku's Mangekyou Sharingan, which hadn’t revealed its power in the original series, showcased an astonishing effect in this battle, even impressing Neiki.
Sure, Fugaku's Susanoo was powerful, but no ninjutsu could be so formidable that it left Konoha’s forces helpless.
What made Fugaku's Susanoo invincible was that any method to counter it failed before the future-seeing eyes, or for various reasons, such methods wouldn’t even appear before Fugaku.
This was a scenario even Neiki hadn’t foreseen.
