DANZÔ SHIMURA'S ABILITIES

DANZÔ'S ABILITIES-

Danzō was a very powerful ninja, who even up until his death, was considered to be one of
Konoha's best by the elders Homura and Koharu. [5] Danzō was able to easily kill several would-be assassins and was able to fight on the same level
as Sasuke Uchiha, despite his old age, holding back so he could fight Madara and being unable
to use Shisui's Sharingan. He also was talented in both using and dispelling genjutsu, even Sasuke's version of Tsukuyomi.

IMPLANTS AND RELATED ABILITIES-
Danzō possessed the Sharingan of Shisui Uchiha, which he normally kept concealed under
bandages. It is possible that his Sharingan was
damaged, as Danzō stated that Orochimaru's data could help with his eye; however, it is also
possible that he merely wanted to increase his
ability to use it. Despite this possible handicap, he
was very skilled at using Shisui's Sharingan,
detecting multiple assassins in the forest and
massacring them all. He also had access to a dōjutsu, exclusive to Shisui, through which he could manipulate other people's thoughts
without them being aware of it. This technique
did not require direct eye contact, as
demonstrated when Danzō manipulated Mifune's thoughts without exposing his Sharingan. Danzō stated that he could only use this technique once
a day. Danzō's most fearsome trait resided in his right arm, which held a total of ten Sharingan
embedded onto it. The arm itself originally
belonged to Shisui as well; this most likely
reduces the draining effect of the Sharingans. He
normally kept the arm hidden under bandages
and a gauntlet-like seal, presumably to conserve chakra. Although he could not see through the
eyes or use their passive abilities, he was able to
access the Izanagi technique, a jutsu forbidden even amongst the Uchiha clan. When the jutsu
was activated, Danzō temporarily gained the power to turn his own body into a physical
illusion, which Danzō was capable of using to negate any wound or injury he should receive
from an opponent. This allowed him to survive
otherwise fatal attacks while still retaining the
ability to inflict physical harm to his opponent.
Izanagi also gave him another benefit, after being
"killed" Danzō would appear elsewhere away from danger. However, the side effect of the jutsu
was that for every 60 seconds Izanagi remained
activated Danzō would lose the use of one of his Sharingan. Also, even with Danzō's physical energy augmented by Hashirama's cells, it still
took a substantial amount of chakra to sustain
the technique. Danzō could also perform the Izanagi with Shisui's eye, but Madara noted that Danzō might not want to throw the eye's special dōjutsu away. Due to his lack of mastery over Hashirama's cells, Danzō's Izanagi is considered incomplete.

According to Madara, Danzō's possession of both the Uchiha clan's and First Hokage's abilities most
likely meant that he was after Naruto, with the
goal of controlling the Nine-Tailed Demon fox.

NATURE TRANSFORMATION-
Danzō was proficient with Wind Release techniques. He could exhale from his mouth
powerful vacuum-based attacks that could either slash like blades or pierce like bullets. He could also use Wind Release to blow himself to safety
while in mid-air. Danzō could perform Chakra Flow as well, enhancing a kunai's offensive power by pouring his wind-natured chakra
through it and in the anime, it was shown he
could also add wind chakra to shuriken by
holding it flat on his palm, and exhaling a stream
of vacuum-like chakra onto the shuriken in a
pinwheel like fashion, turning them into massive buzzsaws. This greatly increases their attack
range and cutting power when thrown. It should
be noted that these shuriken do not lose their
momentum when intercepted, and retain all their
cutting power and range when blocked or
redirected.

By having the First Hokage's cells integrated into his right arm, Danzō was able to use Hashirama's unique Wood Release. The implanted cells also had the additional benefit of boosting Danzō's physical energy, allowing him to sustain eleven
Sharingan at once. Performing Wood Release
techniques took a significant toll on his chakra,
prompting him to only use it when necessary. It
also appeared that he could only use the Wood
Release from his right, augmented arm, although he could do so without needing hand seals. Due
to his possession of the Wood Release, he might
have also been capable of utilizing the two
elements that compose it: earth and water. However, after suffering a fatal wound during
his battle against Sasuke Uchiha, Danzō lost control of Hashirama's cells, which began to
grow rapidly into a large tree that threatened to
engulf him. To prevent that, he disconnected his
right arm, losing his Wood Release techniques.

FUINJUTSU-
Danzō had shown a high level of knowledge and skill when using fūinjutsu and cursed seals. To prevent his secrets from being exposed, Danzō placed binding seals on the tongues of every Root member. Should a Root member speak
openly of Root and Danzō's activities, the seal would activate and instantly paralyse the
member's body. The seals vanished when Danzō died. Danzō could also implement binding seals in battle, which was shown when he placed the
seal on Sasuke, temporarily paralysing him. Lastly,
upon his death, Danzō revealed his most powerful sealing jutsu, the Reverse Four Symbols Sealing Technique. The jutsu caused four seal symbols on Danzō's skin to exit from his body and forms a large sphere around him. Everything
inside the sphere was then drawn in and
imprisoned within his corpse. After the sealing
was complete, the seals could still be seen on
Danzō's body.

SUMMONING TECHNIQUE-
Danzō had access to a very unique summoning, a giant tapir-like creature known as a Baku, the "Nightmare-Eater". The creature had the ability to
suck in objects and targets within the area in
front of it. The Baku's suction could also be used
to increase the power of Danzō's wind techniques. However, using the suction left the
creature vulnerable against fire techniques.
