What the hell is making games in the Ninja World?.

Chapter 424 Uchiha Madara: A meal substitute is fine, let's just revive Hashirama from World 2 first!
However, although his appearance is quite comical, his strength is definitely not. Despite being an old man, with enough system soap package, he can still unleash the strength comparable to Edo Madara from the original work.

It's important to know that in the original story, while the resurrected Madara Uchiha was powerful, he was definitely not as strong as he was after being resurrected by the Rinne Rebirth technique. However, he was still the ultimate fighting force that dominated the ninja world, and his status as a super boss was off the charts.

Although Madara Uchiha no longer possesses the immortal body of the Edo Tensei, he is no less powerful than the Edo Tensei version in other aspects, and in some aspects he is even stronger. Therefore, there is absolutely no doubt about his strength.

Madara Uchiha was very satisfied with the feeling of 'taking back' the Rinnegan, which made him deeply feel the exhilaration of having 'Phowa' in his hands, as if he could destroy everything in the world.

Of course, Madara Uchiha did not believe that he could truly defeat everything, because after learning about the Otsutsuki clan, he now had a clear understanding that becoming a powerful being at the level of the Sage of Six Paths was merely the threshold to facing the Otsutsuki clan.

Although he is powerful now, he is still far inferior to the Sage of Six Paths. To reach that level, he must become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, or obtain a Chakra Fruit as mentioned by Uchiha Itachi, allowing him to achieve ultimate evolution.

Well, you could also call it 'atavism'—after all, in the chakra system, the closer one is to the source of chakra, the stronger Kaguya Otsutsuki becomes.

Then, Madara Uchiha spoke: "The Rinnegan alone is not enough to fight against the Otsutsuki. I need even stronger power to contend with the Otsutsuki. Kei-kun, you've told me so much, invited me to join you, and even gave me my Rinnegan from another world. I suppose you're doing this so that I'll do it!"

With affirmative words and a confirming tone, Madara Uchiha indicated that he had seen through Itachi Uchiha's thoughts, and his address to Itachi Uchiha changed from "Uchiha junior" to "Itachi-kun," representing a change in their relationship, or rather, a shift in Madara Uchiha's attitude.

In response, Uchiha Itachi smiled and said, "That's true, Madara-senpai. When we truly face the Otsutsuki clan in the future, we will need your power. Furthermore, we are indeed prepared to make you stronger and even restore your youth."

Madara Uchiha crossed his arms and said, "Oh? So what do you plan to do? Are you going to revive the Ten-Tails according to the Eye of the Moon's plan and make me the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki?"

Uchiha Itachi nodded and then shook his head, which puzzled Uchiha Madara: "Becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki is possible, but it won't be done in the original way, directly sealing the Tailed Beasts inside. That would be too wasteful."

"After all, the special nature of the tailed beasts gives them extremely strong 'regenerative ability,' and the Ten-Tails doesn't actually need all nine tailed beasts to be resurrected."

"In fact, according to Orochimaru's research, we can theoretically extract a certain amount of chakra from the tailed beasts periodically for cultivation, and amplify the volume of these extracted chakra to a level sufficient to support the revival of the Ten-Tails."

"Once this research is completed, it will mean that we have the ability to create multiple Ten-Tails. Even if these Ten-Tails are much weaker than the original, as long as we can achieve the sublimation of life level, then that will be enough for us."

Madara Uchiha narrowed his eyes: "You mean... you have the potential to revert to the Otsutsuki bloodline in large numbers?"

Uchiha Kei smiled and said, "Science is the primary productive force, and Orochimaru and his group have confirmed this possibility after rigorous research."

"Furthermore, we are destined to control the tailed beasts of both worlds, and through the Dragon Vein, we may discover more parallel worlds. This means that the strategic resource of 'tailed beasts' is no longer so scarce as to be irreplaceable for us."

"This means that we will be able to create the Ten-Tails more smoothly than we imagined."

Upon hearing this, Madara Uchiha lowered his head in silence, then suddenly looked up and said, "You are indeed completely different from the juniors I knew before, and also different from me."

Uchiha Kei simply smiled and said, "In fact, even without the Ten-Tails, we still have a way to restore Madara's youth. In addition, we have also confirmed that we will revive some of the deceased powerful figures when the time is right. Among the reserved spots are the First Hokage and the Second Hokage, as well as Madara's younger brother, Uchiha Izuna."

This moment caused Madara Uchiha's eyes to widen, and his closed Rinnegan was instantly activated.

Along with the activation of the Rinnegan comes a terrifying pressure inherent in the Rinnegan.

After a long while, Madara Uchiha took a deep breath, finally suppressing the enormous shock and the tremor in his heart from hearing that Hashirama and Izuna could be resurrected.

Well, it was only Hashirama and Izuna; as for Tobirama Uchiha, he simply ignored him completely.

After recovering, Madara Uchiha did not directly ask about the resurrection of Izuna and Hashirama, but instead asked in a deep voice, "The Rinne Rebirth Technique?"

Uchiha Kei nodded: "This is one of the methods of resurrection."

Madara Uchiha: "Then do you know the price of using the Rinne Rebirth Technique?"

Uchiha Kei nodded: "Of course, but in our eyes, this price is nothing at all, because there are too many ways to avoid it. In fact, in our view, the so-called price of the Rinne Rebirth Technique is nothing at all. Compared to the price that the Rinne Rebirth Technique itself requires, we think we should be more worried that the Sage of Six Paths might think that we are affecting the balance of life and death because we have resurrected too many people too frequently and without paying any price, and then jump out to stop us."

"After all, the Sage of Six Paths from both worlds are the creators and controllers of the Underworld, and they must care a lot about the balance between life and death. Moreover, our mass production of the Ten-Tails is unacceptable and incomprehensible to the Sage of Six Paths, and conflicts are inevitable."

Madara Uchiha narrowed his eyes, a sharp glint emanating from his Rinnegan. Even with his somewhat chubby appearance, he exuded a powerful aura: "The Sage of Six Paths, will he become our enemy?"

Uchiha Kei shrugged: "Who knows? After all, our understanding of the Sage of Six Paths is only based on legends and information provided by Black Zetsu. However, based on the information we have, the Sage of Six Paths was a rather... well, an idealist? Uh, you could say that."

"In short, the Sage of Six Paths was very stubborn in this regard, and he had his own set of theories, which he insisted on. Despite being an Otsutsuki, he had ideas that were very close to nature and empathy for ordinary people."

"Isn't that why he and his brother sealed away their mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki? So, if we really start resurrecting the dead on a large scale, no one can guarantee that the Sage of Six Paths won't be affected."

After saying this, Madara Uchiha narrowed his eyes, then snorted coldly, showing great disdain: "If this kind of guy who can't keep up with the times and whose thinking is still stuck in the old ways really dares to hold back on this matter concerning the future of the ninja world, then we should just sweep him into the trash heap."

The attitude it displays is that even if the enemy is the Sage of Six Paths, they will still be beaten!

Uchiha Itachi was not surprised by this. After all, this was Madara, and that was just his personality. In fact, it would be strange if he didn't have that kind of spirit, or he wouldn't be like Madara.

Furthermore, when Madara Uchiha said these words, his attitude was one of full support for Itachi Uchiha and his group, indicating his complete willingness to cooperate and achieve a win-win situation on their side. However…

"As for Hashirama, he can't be resurrected." Madara Uchiha then revealed a complicated expression. "Because Hashirama has already been reincarnated, even if you want to resurrect him, you won't be able to find his soul."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Itachi revealed a subtle expression, then asked calmly, "Oh? Is that so? What exactly happened?"

Madara Uchiha remained silent, offering no answer, clearly unwilling to do so, or perhaps wanting to keep Muko's secret.

Uchiha Itachi's feelings about this were even more complicated, but it was also an extremely interesting situation.

Then, Uchiha Itachi coughed lightly and changed the subject, saying, "If such a thing really happens, there are ways to remedy it. For example, since it can be confirmed that the First Hokage has not been reincarnated in World 2, we can also revive the First Hokage of World 2."

"Although he is not the first generation of our world, he is still the first generation that you, Madara-senpai, are familiar with. You can find him to relive the glorious past."

The implication is that they should directly look for meal replacements.

Meal replacement literature is terrifying.

Surprisingly, Madara Uchiha did show a hint of interest, or even anticipation.

However, Madara Uchiha turned back and asked, "What about me from the other world?"

Uchiha Kei shook his head: "He is different from you, Madara-senpai. We are very principled. If there is a sin, we must investigate it to the end. In this world, although you, Madara-senpai, are preparing to implement the Eye of the Moon Plan, you have not actually done it. That is to say, you have not yet done anything that would bring great disaster to Konoha."

"As for the battle at the Valley of the End, that was between you and the First Lord. You settled everything in that battle, so we won't dwell on it. Therefore, we would be happy to invite you to join us."

"However, you in the other world are different. You have already done many things, and the successor you chose in that world, Obito Uchiha, has done many things that are outrageous and heinous. Even the Uchiha clan in that world was wiped out due to his instigation."

"You, who bear this sin in that world, even if you are resurrected, can only exist as a sinner and must be judged."

Upon hearing these words, Madara Uchiha understood what Itachi Uchiha meant. However, more than whether or not to pursue the matter, Madara Uchiha was more shocked by something else.

"What did you say? The Uchiha clan in another world was wiped out? Or was it done by the successor I chose in that world?"

So shocked was he that he changed his self-reference from the pretentious "old man" to the "I" he had gotten used to over the past six months.

It can only be said that the massacre of the Uchiha clan was indeed beyond Madara Uchiha's expectations. Although he was unhappy that the Uchiha clan did not run away with him back then, that was all he was unhappy about. His attitude was that from now on, he and the Uchiha clan would go their separate ways, and they would also provide him with points for the successor of his Eye of the Moon Plan.

As a result, the successor chosen by another Uchiha Madara has now led to the extermination of the Uchiha clan, which has completely thwarted Uchiha Madara's plans.

It can only be said that Madara Uchiha, who had served as the clan leader, and Obito Uchiha, who had been a disgrace to the Uchiha clan since childhood, had completely different, even diametrically opposed, views and identification with the Uchiha clan.

Furthermore, Madara Uchiha from the main world is different from Madara Uchiha from the second world. Madara from the main world, because he was obsessed with the Genjutsu Game, knew that the existence of the Genjutsu Game was greatly aided by the Uchiha clan. He also saw the huge changes in the Uchiha clan after the appearance of the Genjutsu Game. The beautiful and hopeful future was visible to the naked eye. Even as a self-proclaimed ghost of the past, Madara Uchiha felt that the Uchiha clan was really good now and was very gratified.

As a result, it's no wonder Madara Uchiha couldn't keep his composure when he suddenly learned that the Uchiha clan in another world had been wiped out, given this mindset.

After a while, Madara Uchiha asked with a very unpleasant expression, "What exactly happened?"

Uchiha Kei looked at Uchiha Madara with slight surprise, clearly not expecting that Uchiha Madara wanted to get to the bottom of things. He had thought that although Uchiha Madara's expression would be very unpleasant after knowing about this, he would choose to ignore it.

However, it's not that Madara Uchiha can't find out; in fact, Itachi Uchiha is also eager to know how Madara Uchiha will react after learning the truth.

Therefore, Uchiha Itachi told Uchiha Madara everything about Obito's instigation of the Nine-Tails' attack, his murder of his master, his subsequent actions that led to the Uchiha clan being ostracized and marginalized by Konoha, and finally, his acceptance of Itachi's invitation to wipe out the Uchiha clan.

Upon hearing these words, Madara Uchiha's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and even his rather fat body trembled slightly, clearly indicating that he was truly enraged.

This made Uchiha Itachi worry, fearing that Uchiha Madara might get seriously injured from anger, since although the opponent was still very strong, his age was a factor.

After a while, Madara Uchiha took a few deep breaths, finally suppressing the roar in his heart. Finally, he stared at Itachi Uchiha with a blank expression and asked, "What about those two guys? And what about Danzo Shimura from the other world?"

Uchiha Kei smiled meaningfully: "Don't worry, they have all received their due punishment. Each one of them suffered terribly and paid the price for their evil deeds in the cruelest way."

Upon hearing this, Madara Uchiha remained silent for a long time before closing his eyes and saying, "Is this what you meant by paying the price for the evil deeds you've committed? Yes, no matter what your motivation is, if you commit evil deeds, you must pay the price."

"Although the other old man was also deceived, since the evil deed has already been done, there is no point in saying anything more. So, let's treat him as we should."

He paused, then opened his eyes again and added, "In that case, let's revive Hashirama from the other world first!"

Well, meal replacements are meal replacements, they can still fill your stomach!
