"You were too hasty. Go to your brother Itachi so he can lecture you." says Danzo as he struggles with Sasuke. Madara also thinks this is the extent of Sasuke's power.
Izanagi is not that strong after all. Sasuke's Genjutsu is a far cry from Itachi's Tsukuyomi, where Itachi manipulated time within genjutsu. The trick lies in how you use this time. Izanagi is powerful, but Sharingan eye closes once it's exhausted. We saw Sharingan on Danzo's arm close after 60 seconds of activity. When Sasuke relentlessly attacked Danzo with many Sharingan eyes still open on his right arm, it seemed suicidal. Sasuke did close all Danzo's Sharingan one by one. He is after all, Uchiha, ninja with Mangekyo Sharingan. Sasuke placed genjutsu on Danzo in the last attack and this genjutsu made Danzo believe that the last eye on his right arm was still open when in fact it was closed already.
Danzo didn't get to use Shisui's eye and now Sasuke may take over the Shisui. Danzo nearing his death lost his control over his chakra and over Hashirama's power. His right arm tore off and when you would expect Danzo to just give up and die, he unwound the white gauze from his head and revealed his right Shisui's eye. The visual prowess has returned to his right eye. As Danzo intended to, he used up his Izanagi to allow time for Shisui's eye to recuperate. Next, Danzo uses his Shisui's eye, now in full power, to visually distract Sasuke and grab Karin who earlier tended to Sasuke. Danzo wants to sacrifice Karin for the saving Hidden Leaf and reforming the ninja world. Sasuke asks Karin not to move and shot a lightning rod right through Karin hidding a vital point of Danzo and killing Karin in the process. Before Karin passed on she managed to ask one question: "What was I to you Sasuke?" Merciless Sasuke answered coolly: "Karin, since you managed to get taken hostage, you're nothing but a burden to me." Danzo wounded and bleeding walked off only to be caught by Madara who now demands his Shisui's eye.
Story rewinds to the times when Itachi joined Anbu Special Forces and was asked about Shisui Uchiha who died the night before. Second Hokage and his Team of Seven need to send out a decoy to divert attention from Hidden Cloud Kintaku Unit and Danzo volunteers albeit too late as Saru called it first. Danzo is a Shinobi and he wants to die an honorable way as his ancestors did, that's why he needs to be the one to get picked. Hashirama, second Hokage, would not have it. He will be the decoy. Hashirama recognized Saru's courage and anointed him to be the next Hokage.
Danzo wasn't done yet. He activated Reverse Tetragram Sealing Jutsu, remembering his best friend Hiruzen and how he gave his life to protect Hidden Leaf Village.
Sakura is back at the scene remembering how she started liking Sasuke, never understanding who he actually was and is. Sakura resolved to seek Sasuke and try to kill him.
