Kaito extended his left palm to the ground, and a paper doll immediately ran out from the corner, placing several strands of hair into his palm.
"What is this?" Izuna asked.
"Danzo Shimura's hair," Kaito answered.
He then extended his right index finger, which glowed blue, and swiftly drew one curse symbol after another on the ground, quickly forming the shape of a magic circle.
"Hair? What's it for?" Izuna was puzzled.
"It's a curse," Chiri said softly, watching Kaito's movements.
"Oh? Just hair can curse someone? Can it kill?" Izuna was extremely curious.
"No, it can't."
Kaito placed the hair in the center of the magic circle, then lightly slashed his extended right wrist with his fingernail, allowing his blood to drip down.
As his blood fell onto the magic circle, the entire formation slowly turned from its original blue color, powered by his spiritual energy, to blood red.
"This is the first step," he began to explain. "Using the hair as a medium will only cause a minor rejection reaction in his transplanted Sharingan. Although he can still use it normally, it will increase his reaction time during combat."
"With this, he will definitely have a medical ninja check his body, and I will have the opportunity to obtain his blood without anyone noticing." Kaito's face showed a pleased smile. "Then, I'll make him have no choice but to remove all of the Sharingan himself."
Deep within the underground base of the Root Organization, located in a secluded area of Konoha, Danzo Shimura was listening to a subordinate's mission report.
Suddenly, he grunted and covered his right arm with his left hand.
"Danzo-sama?" The Root member reporting the mission couldn't help but inquire.
"Leave me," Danzo commanded.
"Yes," the Root member obediently bowed and left.
"Take root," Danzo issued another order. "Call Kei here."
"Yes, Danzo-sama." A man wearing peculiar sunglasses suddenly appeared kneeling on one knee before Danzo, then stood up and walked towards the door.
"Danzo-sama, what's this?" Another man with orange hair appeared kneeling in the room, looking worriedly at Danzo Shimura.
Danzo, covering his right hand, grimly said, "The Sharingan are showing signs of rejection, damn Orochimaru!"
"This…" Torune heard and said, "Should we contact Orochimaru?"
"..." Danzo was silent for a while, then said, "Let Kei check it first."
"Yes." Torune stood respectfully aside.
The medical ninja named Kei soon arrived. He unwrapped the bandages on Danzo's body and examined him carefully.
Then, somewhat hesitantly, he said, "I'm very sorry, Danzo-sama. All of the Sharingan on your body are showing signs of slight rejection. While it doesn't affect usage, it will cause you considerable trouble. I need to draw some blood for a thorough investigation to determine the specific cause."
"Mhm." Danzo, with his eyes slightly closed, nodded.
Seeing the leader's consent, the medical ninja quickly took out a syringe to draw blood, then bowed and said, "Please bear with it for a moment, Danzo-sama. I will identify the cause as soon as possible."
"Go."
"Yes."
Kei bowed again, taking his medical tools and walked out. He steadily made his way back to his office, where an unusual smile appeared on his ordinarily plain face.
He took out the syringe containing Danzo Shimura's blood and casually placed it on the desk. Then he seemingly instructed out of thin air, "Hand it over to the main body."
Several paper dolls quickly ran out from the corners of the room, nimbly jumped onto the table to lift the syringe together, and then hurriedly jumped off the table and ran away.
When Danzo Shimura's blood reached Kaito, he had already finished explaining his detailed action plan to the two seniors.
Because he wanted to retrieve the Sharingan intact, it was obviously unwise to directly confront the old man, Danzo Shimura.
If he were to lose in battle, Danzo might recklessly activate the ultimate illusion technique known as Izanagi.
Izanagi can turn all realities unfavorable to the caster into mere illusions, at the cost of completely destroying one Sharingan eye.
Such a situation would not only be detrimental to the battle but would also result in fewer Sharingan for Kaito to collect in the end.
Therefore, he could only find a way to make Danzo temporarily give up the Sharingan.
For this, he even split a part of his true spirit to possess a paper doll, taking the opportunity to control the body of the medical ninja arranged by Danzo for himself.
"It's finally here," Kaito said, taking the syringe filled with blood, and smiled excitedly, "Let's begin!"
He then pushed all the blood from the syringe, mixing it with the hair previously placed in the magic circle.
"Scatter, feel the pain, Danzo."
Kaito formed hand seals, his clothing moving without wind, and the magic circle on the ground burst into a blood light, turning the entire underground room red.
"Ah..."
Danzo Shimura, who was waiting for the medical ninja's examination results, suddenly felt an excruciating pain from all the transplanted Sharingan areas on his body. Unable to bear it, he cried out in agony.
Soon after, he felt the intensity of the pain deepen, as if the seams of his bones were also beginning to ache severely.
At that point, he could no longer maintain his composure, collapsing onto the ground in pain.
"Danzo-sama!"
"Danzo-sama!"
Torune and Fu hurried forward to help him up, but by then, he was in so much pain he couldn't speak.
The bone-deep pain forced him to grit his teeth and endure, fearing that he would scream if he opened his mouth.
"I'll call Kei over!" Torune exchanged glances with Fu, turned around, and left the room, even using the Body Flicker Technique to hasten his pace.
He raced all the way to Kei's medical room, bursting through the door.
Kei, wearing a white lab coat and squinting at something through a microscope, was startled by the sudden intrusion.
He quickly looked up, "Torune? What's wrong?"
"Hurry up and come with me," Torune grabbed his wrist, pulling him out of the room, "The situation with Danzo-sama has suddenly worsened!"
"Wait, wait," Kei exclaimed, "I need to grab my medical kit!"
After Kei turned back to grab his medical kit and was dragged by Torune to Danzo's room, Danzo was nearly at his breaking point.
His face was pale, his lips purple, fingers spasming, his entire body trembling uncontrollably, sweat soaking the ground beneath him.
"Quick!" Fu urgently urged Kei.
Pushed by Torune to Danzo's side, Kei also started to tremble upon seeing the scene before him.
Stuttering, he said, "I'm so sorry... Danzo-sama, I... I don't have any solutions. Our only option now is... is to seek help from the Hokage, or... or we have to temporarily give up the Sharingan."
