Chapter 367 - Chapter 367 The Choice

Clearly, based on Danzo's consistent character, that eye of his was either stolen or seized!

What, you say it was Danzo's own eye?

Heh!

Did Danzo's father take a wrong turn, or did his mother mix with some special bloodline?

Here, looking at Danzo, Sora also directly exposed him.

"I have met Uchiha Shisui, and even faced his Mangekyo's Dojutsu head-on! If I'm not mistaken, that eye of yours belongs to Uchiha Shisui, right?"

"What was Uchiha Shisui's Dojutsu called again?" Sora pretended to think, then clapped his hands: "Ah, I remember. It's called Kotoamatsukami, correct?"

Sora looked meaningfully at Danzo.

"How do you...?!" Hearing Sora's words, Danzo's face changed dramatically!

'I had never revealed the name [Kotoamatsukami] to anyone. That meant this Yuki Sora had truly encountered Shisui? And faced his Dojutsu head-on?'

'But wasn't Shisui's technique about altering thoughts?'

'How could someone who truly faced such a technique be like this now?'

Danzo couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought.

Seeing the look in Danzo's eyes, Sora knew exactly what he was pondering.

"Heh, naturally, it's because Uchiha Shisui fell under my Genjutsu. He thought he hit me, but he didn't! That's how I learned the effect of his Dojutsu."

"And Shisui's technique is very unique. Generally, a Uchiha's two eyes have different techniques, but only Shisui's both eyes are the same, both called Kotoamatsukami!"

"However, although both are Kotoamatsukami, the degree of influence on human cognition differs."

"Shisui's right eye, which is your current eye, has a slow, short-term influence on the target's thoughts, while the left eye directly modifies them!"

"So, the situation with those two Elders just now was your doing, right?"

Sora said with a smile: "You altered their thinking, Elder Danzo?"

"What, wanted others to test me? Heh, there was no need for that. If you wanted to know my capabilities, you could have just come and tried yourself."

Sora mocked.

'Tried myself... wouldn't that be trying and dying?' Hearing Sora's words, Danzo criticized frantically in his heart.

But on the surface, Danzo naturally vehemently denied Sora's accusations.

"How could that be? Koharu and Homura are my long-time friends and colleagues. We share a bond forged in life-and-death battles during the wars. How could I possibly alter their thoughts?"

"Young man, don't question the bonds between us!"

Danzo invoked Konoha's greatest political correctness.

Hearing Danzo's words, the two Elders, who had started to doubt because of Sora's statements, were swayed by Danzo.

"That's right. Danzo would never harm us!"

Homura said, looking agitatedly at Sora and the others: "On the contrary, aren't you people more suspicious?"

"Wasn't Danzo's condition just now caused by you?"

"And our thoughts being altered just now… wasn't that you too?"

"You wanted to make us look foolish to gain more advantage in the following negotiations?"

"Heh!" Koharu sneered twice: "Outsiders, we won't let you succeed!"

"And, Kushina, I have a question for you. Are you a person of Konoha now, or are you this man's woman?"

Kohara aggressively looked at Kushina.

"Huh?" Suddenly being singled out, Kushina was somewhat bewildered.

But this question was very simple, wasn't it?

Without any thought process, Kushina directly answered: "I am, of course, Sora's consort now."

"Elder Koharu, why are you asking this? It's so strange?" Kushina looked utterly confused.

What the hell is Konoha? Sora is the Soul King!

Whoever he wants dead dies, whoever he wants alive lives.

Why wouldn't she follow someone like that? And instead follow Konoha, which is plagued by severe internal strife and has a leadership that barely acts human?

"You..." Seeing Kushina answer so decisively, Koharu was instead left speechless.

According to her plan, after presenting the choice between the village and a man, Kushina would hesitate at least a little.

After all, they had all participated in the brainwashing of Kushina before, and it was quite effective!

And that was indeed true. If it were the original Kushina, she might have been swayed. But this Kushina was different.

But Koharu probably never imagined that the Kushina before her wasn't the Kushina of their world, but one from another world, right?

Even if Sora hadn't taken Kushina, given Minato's situation, Kushina would have been utterly disillusioned with Konoha!

Meanwhile, the matter with Kushina was over, but their earlier words towards Sora were not.
