Chapter 416 Uchiha Madara: I see, I, 'Hashirama,' understand everything (4K)

Madara Uchiha treated Tamamo-no-Mae with the mindset of dealing with a powerful opponent.

This would have been outrageous decades ago, and it would be outrageous even in the Second Shinobi World. After all, what kind of person was Madara Uchiha? Would he look favorably upon a woman of unknown origin?
But times have changed.

The main issue is that in the illusionary world, this second world, it's very difficult to bring anything from the real world into it.

Although it's still a bit difficult to bring over, nothing in the real world matters that much compared to the overall game balance and other aspects.

At least, he couldn't give Uchiha Madara the strength to crush all living beings. Although he still stood at the top of the pyramid, there were still some players who could rival him.

In numerous battles and encounters across various games, Madara Uchiha and Tamamo-no-Mae had their share of victories and defeats. Although Madara generally won more than he lost, for him, every defeat was something worth remembering vividly.

Therefore, Madara Uchiha paid close attention to Tamamo-no-Mae.

Incidentally, Madara Uchiha disliked and looked down on Tamamo-no-Mae's imitation of the Nine-Tails, feeling that she was clearly human yet tried to imitate a beast, which showed a lack of vision.

Well, Madara Uchiha never associated Tamamo-no-Mae with the Nine-Tails, let alone that they were actually the same thing.

The main difference is that Kurama is a large orange fox and a male, at least in terms of its masculine voice, while Tamamo-no-Mae is a white fox and a female, and her temperament is completely different from the irritable and wild Kurama.

Most importantly, one is a human, and the other is a beast.

In this situation, how much imagination would Madara Uchiha have to come up with the idea that the two are the same person?
Besides, Madara Uchiha was never a guy with a wild imagination, and given his age, Madara's imagination couldn't compare to that of a young person.

In short, Madara Uchiha simply viewed Tamamo-no-Mae as a formidable enemy when it came to his attention.

Therefore, when Tamamo-no-Mae posted the message, Madara Uchiha clicked on it to read it.

Then, Madara Uchiha discovered that it contained a message about Tamamo-no-Mae forming a group, stating that Tamamo-no-Mae had officially established a family called 'Ten Thousand Demon King's Court'.

The so-called 'clan' is the same as the guilds and gangs that often appear in multiplayer online games, but with the characteristics of the ninja world. After all, 'clan' is the most common in the ninja world, and the next level up is the ninja village.

In today's fantasy online world, there are already many different 'clans'. When this feature was launched, many people created 'clans' and then invited their friends and family from real life or online into the 'clans'.

The name of the 'family' also adheres to the freedom of the internet; apart from prohibiting the use of certain special words and symbols, other characters are allowed.

However, since the internet is still in its infancy, abstract names have not yet appeared; instead, names that are overly dramatic or cool are quite common.

For example, the family name chosen by Tamamo-no-Mae is actually a pretty 'ordinary' name, but it has attracted a lot of attention because it was Tamamo-no-Mae who founded the 'family'.

The main reason is that Tamamo-no-Mae, as a top player, has always been the focus of attention. Before this, many clans had invited Tamamo-no-Mae, but she refused them all and never joined any clan. At most, she would bring along a 'Sett' whose game skills were not so good.

Now that Tamamo-no-Mae has publicly announced the establishment of her own clan, she has extinguished the desires of those who wanted to invite her to join.

Of course, this in turn made many people want to join Tamamo-no-Mae's family, and many people commented below the post expressing their desire to join and asking to be accepted, while many others sent their blessings and expectations.

The post had only been published for half an hour, but the number of comments had already exceeded three thousand, which shows how popular Tamamo-no-Mae is.

It's important to know that there are only a few hundred thousand users on the Illusion Network these days, and many of them don't even pay attention to these forum posts. Many people simply don't have time to go online, and some people just read posts but never reply.

As a result, even under these circumstances, the fact that Tamamo-no-Mae's post received so many replies in just half an hour demonstrates her immense popularity.

It can be said that Tamamo-no-Mae is now a true internet goddess, a super popular character, surrounded by admirers, and countless people are willing to spend money to support her whenever she goes out.

In fact, many people have tried to arrange a date with Tamamo-no-Mae, including powerful ninjas, nobles, and even daimyo, but without exception, they have all failed.

After all, given Tamamo-no-Mae's personality, she would never give these sycophants a kind look, and she is completely unafraid of so-called power oppression.

In fact, many nobles tried to coerce Tamamo-no-Mae with their power, but without exception, they all failed and could not threaten her at all. She remained the aloof goddess of illusion.

There's no way around it; Tamamo-no-Mae's true form is the Nine-Tails. Although she has been 'corrupted' by the Illusion Game and the Illusion Network and is no longer the Nine-Tails she once was, her arrogant personality will not change. In her eyes, most humans are still just a bunch of insects, and this distinction is purely based on strength. Worldly power is meaningless to her.

As for the nobles and daimyo's attempts to investigate Tamamo-no-Mae's true identity through Konoha, they naturally failed. Konoha always responded to those in power with excuses like "Who knows about things on the internet?", "If you want to find out, go ask Tamamo-no-Mae yourself", "There are so many genjutsu game players, who knows?", "We in Konoha aren't gods, how could we know so much?", and "We're all just trying our best to live".

This greatly displeased the nobles and daimyo, but they were powerless to do anything about it. The daimyo of the Land of Fire had a lot of grievances against Konoha, and this was undoubtedly one of the reasons.

Well, it can only be said that the legend of the nine-tailed fox wreaking havoc on the human world is not entirely unfounded.

Of course, Madara Uchiha was unaware of these behind-the-scenes matters. In his eyes, Tamamo-no-Mae was a formidable enemy. Now that he knew that Tamamo-no-Mae had established her own 'clan,' he was surprised for a moment and then fell into deep thought.

"Should I start a 'family' with Mu Zi?"

Yes, seeing that Kurama had established his own clan, Madara Uchiha was pondering.

Previously, he didn't care about this, and he and Mu Zi never thought about creating a 'clan'. After all, just looking at the name of the function reminded Uchiha Madara of the Senju and Uchiha clans. In his eyes, this was what a clan should be. The so-called clans on the Internet were simply a joke.

However, as time went by and he saw one 'family' after another appear, Old Dengban realized that these so-called families were completely different from those in reality. The families in the internet were just small organizations where everyone played together, or even small groups of only a few people.

At that time, Madara Uchiha was already thinking about establishing a clan. However, because of the troublesome "yellow-haired" Kenshin Uzumaki, Madara didn't think about it much. After all, if a clan were established, given the relationship between Muko and Kenshin, Kenshin would definitely join.

For Old Man Bantou, this was an extremely frustrating thing, so he never thought about starting a family.

However, seeing that even his formidable enemy Tamamo-no-Mae has created a clan, Old Madara couldn't help but ponder whether he should create one as well.

The main point is that after Tamamo-no-Mae established her family, her family members may not be many, but she will not continue to fight alone, which means that Tamamo-no-Mae has her own power.

In the game, the faction represents the faction you will encounter in PVP. Once you face off, the side without a faction will be at a disadvantage from the start.

Tamamo-no-Mae was already very strong, and now that she has her own power, wouldn't she have a complete advantage in terms of strength? Wouldn't Madara Uchiha be constantly getting the short end of the stick when he faces Tamamo-no-Mae?
No! Absolutely not!
This is the only thing I absolutely cannot tolerate!!!

As he pondered, Madara Uchiha's intense competitive spirit began to burn fiercely, and his desire to win was boiling over.

Yes, it's that strange competitive spirit that comes with older men.

Then, just as Madara Uchiha was pondering this, suddenly, Madara Uchiha felt a dizziness, and the scene in front of him changed rapidly, making him feel extremely dizzy.

When Madara Uchiha came to his senses, he found that the surrounding scenery had completely changed, and the place he had arrived at was a completely different place.

"Where is this?"

Madara Uchiha frowned deeply as he looked around at the scenery, and became alert and vigilant.

Because they had suddenly arrived in a dark region, surrounded by a gray haze, with pitch black in the distance, and broken rocks and mountains all around.

Looking up at the sky, Madara Uchiha opened his eyes wide and activated his Sharingan, because what he saw was an uneven 'rocky top,' as if it were an extremely large underground world. The sky he saw was actually a part of the underground world.

This scene was both strange and familiar to Uchiha Madara. It was strange because he had never seen such a huge underground world before, and familiar because he had lived in the underground world for a long time.

"What exactly is going on? Where am I?"

Madara Uchiha frowned deeply.

Then, at that moment, a voice that shocked Madara Uchiha, a voice that was both familiar and felt extremely distant, rang out.

"Long time no see, Radham!"

Madara Uchiha suddenly turned around and saw that he had been standing there for some time, just like Hashirama Senju in his memory, and in the same posture as during the battle at the Valley of the End.

This situation made Madara Uchiha's heart skip a beat, and then an indescribable emotion surged up and rushed to his heart, causing him to shout out involuntarily.

"Hassy hot mom!!!"

Seeing this, Hashirama Senju grinned and said, "I'm relieved to see you're still so energetic, Mada!"

Seeing that smile and hearing Hashirama Senju's words, Madara Uchiha felt his blood boil, and a strong fighting desire surged up, almost making him unable to hold back.

However, Madara Uchiha quickly calmed down, forcibly calming himself down from the 'Hot Mom Syndrome' state.

Madara Uchiha thought of Muko, the girl he had spent almost a year with.

You see, he has already decided that Mu Zi is the reincarnation of Hashirama. If that's the case, then who is this Senju Hashirama in front of him?

Or rather, why am I here? And where is this place? I was just in a genjutsu network, so why am I suddenly seeing Hashirama Senju?

Once these questions arose, countless doubts and wariness arose spontaneously, causing Uchiha Madara to subconsciously believe that the Senju Hashirama in front of him was a fake, and that the surrounding scenery was a complete illusion.

Seeing that Uchiha Madara suddenly became wary and his eyes sharpened, Senju Hashirama did not take it seriously. He just smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, Madara. I am indeed the Senju Hashirama you know, but I am not the complete one. I am just a part of my chakra spirit that has been preserved."

Madara Uchiha paused slightly, then Hashirama Senju turned around, his back to Madara Uchiha, facing the dark abyss in the distance, and said in a melancholy tone, "Madara, do you know? This is what the underworld looks like."

Upon hearing this, Madara Uchiha showed a look of astonishment, truly not expecting Hashirama Senju to say such a thing.

With his back to Madara Uchiha, Hashirama Senju continued speaking to himself—mainly because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to deliver his lines properly in front of Madara Uchiha, or that Madara Uchiha would see through his act.

"Yes, this is the pure land of the ninja world, a place only the dead can go to. I have been in this place for a long time, waiting for your arrival."

"As a result, I haven't seen you, which has disappointed me."

"But when I thought you were refusing to see me, the Sage of Six Paths found me and told me that you were not actually dead and were still alive in the human world."

"Then, the Sage of Six Paths gave me a chance, a chance to return to the mortal realm and see you again. So I agreed."

Madara Uchiha slightly widened his Sharingan, the tomoe of his Sharingan spinning rapidly, clearly shocked by what Hashirama Senju had said.

"The Sage of Six Paths? The Sage of Six Paths is still alive?"

Upon hearing this, Hashirama Senju continued to turn his back to Madara Uchiha and shook his head slightly: "No, the Sage of Six Paths only still exists, not still alive. The Pure Land of the Shinobi World was created by him, and he is undoubtedly the God of the Underworld."

Such astonishing information sent a jolt through Madara Uchiha's heart, and Hashirama Senju did not continue to discuss returning to the human world, leaving Madara to fill in the blanks in his mind.

It must be said that some of what Hashirama Senju said was true, but much of it was false. The main point was to mix truth and falsehood together, while leaving the details unsaid and letting Madara Uchiha fill in the blanks.

Madara Uchiha was indeed frantically imagining things, constantly pondering the hidden information in Hashirama Senju's words.

Then, Madara Uchiha suddenly realized.

"So that's how it is. Under the arrangement of the Sage of Six Paths, Hasi Hot Mom was reincarnated, and the person she was reincarnated as is Mu Zi..."

Thinking of this, Madara Uchiha pursed his lips, but couldn't help asking, "Hashirama, you're Muko, right?"

Upon hearing this, Hashirama Senju looked guilty, but because his back was to Madara Uchiha, Madara couldn't see his expression. He replied in a slightly awkward tone, "Uh, it's me, Muko..."

Upon hearing this, Madara Uchiha revealed an expression of 'I knew it,' indicating that everything made sense—or at least his imagination was plausible.
