Danzo was clearly prolonging the fight with Sasuke. When Danzo marked Sasuke with the cursed seal he took his time before going in for the kill. As stated before, Danzo knew he couldn't beat "Madara" as he himself stated that Madara's abilities are endless and so the only way to win would be Kotoamatsukami to control Madara, he even states this in the middle of the fight with Sasuke.
