Konoha: I, Ninja War Sakura, rely entirely on skills!

Chapter 313 Uchiha Madara, is your Susanoo sturdy enough? (Three-in-one)

God turned on the light switch for the world.

The Frost Country, already gloomy due to its frequent snowfall, became even darker at this moment.

"Hokage, your men haven't completely retreated yet, have they?"

"Do you think... this meteorite might affect them...?"

Madara Uchiha, with his arms missing, looked at the pink-clad girl before him, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

He knows the so-called Hokage all too well.

To sacrifice immediate gains for his comrades, and to be responsible for everyone as the supreme leader of Konoha.

"Uchiha Madara!!!"

A roar came, but it wasn't from the Hokage in front of him; it came from the Fifth Raikage not far away.

At this moment, not only were the Konoha troops unable to evacuate in time, but a considerable number of Allied Shinobi were also affected.

If such a giant meteorite were to fall, not only would Konoha suffer heavy losses, but their allied ninja forces would also suffer heavy losses.

To win this war, Killer Bee has poured all of Kumogakure's resources into it.

Madara Uchiha is now part of the Allied Forces, and Killer Bee never expected that Madara would make such a choice, treating his teammates as nothing.

"As expected of the so-called Asura, he doesn't care at all even with teammates around."

Sakura watched as Madara Uchiha continued to recover.

"These are all just means to win."

"One general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand soldiers. If one cannot even make sacrifices, how can one achieve one's goals?"

"You're the Hokage, I shouldn't need to teach you these things."

Madara Uchiha looked at the girl in front of him, his Rinnegan eyes filled with malice. At this moment, his arms had recovered halfway.

"you're right."

"But unfortunately, this meteorite is just a slightly larger pebble to me."

"If I were to sacrifice my subordinates' lives for the sake of a single pebble, then I would be a complete failure as Hokage."

"Heh, isn't it one of the reasons why Hashirama Senju gave up on making you the Second Hokage that you made this choice?"

Sakura sneered at Madara Uchiha's face, which had suddenly darkened, and then shot into the sky like a cannonball!
"This guy……"

Madara Uchiha gritted his teeth as he watched the Hokage fly into the sky.

Is the other person implying that he's inferior to Tobirama Senju?!
It's just a joke.

"What is the Hokage trying to do?"

Hozuki Gengetsu looked up at the pink figure in the sky.

"Stop that meteorite."

Naruto, who was fighting Hozuki Gengetsu, smiled.

"That's Sakura!"

"You brat, when did I ask you that?!"

Hozuki Gengetsu looked at Naruto in front of him with displeasure.

"You eyebrowless bastard, I didn't tell you, why are you so self-righteous?"

"Right, Sasuke?"

Naruto then spoke to Sasuke, who was entangled with Wu on the other side.

That damn Konoha brat deserves a beating!

Hozuki Gengetsu looked at Naruto in front of him, his teeth itching with anger.

If he weren't outmatched, Hozuki Gengetsu would have killed him long ago.

With the giant clam killed and the Steam Explosion technique broken, Hozuki Gengetsu was clearly struggling against Naruto in Nine-Tails Chakra Mode.

Blue and pink chakra flames burned fiercely all over his body, and the golden cudgel had somehow fallen into his hand.

Sakura stared at the giant meteorite that was about to rush towards her, and without hesitation, she thrust her golden cudgel into it!
Extend!

At that moment, the iron rod, which was like an embroidery needle compared to the meteorite, was thrust in without hesitation!
In that instant, the golden cudgel extended to tens of meters, hundreds of meters, and even thousands of meters!
At that moment, the giant meteorite was strung together like a candied hawthorn!

"interesting."

"Then for the second one, you should..."

Madara Uchiha looked at the scene in the sky and was about to speak when he discovered that not only the first meteorite had been pierced by the iron rod, but the second one had been as well.

At this moment, Madara Uchiha's expression turned serious.

The opponent's power is truly terrifying.

There's a reason why the so-called Allied Ninjas can't defeat their opponent. If they continue to play around, they might really suffer an unexpected defeat.

Thinking of this, Madara Uchiha immediately clapped his hands, his face filled with undisguised excitement!
Even though Madara Uchiha was only in an impure body at this moment, he seemed to feel the blood in his body boiling and surging.

How long has it been? How long has it been?

Since Hashirama Senju, no one has been able to put such pressure on him.

Unexpectedly, just twenty years after his death, such a monster-like existence appeared in the ninja world!

Afraid?

If Madara Uchiha was afraid, then he wouldn't be Madara Uchiha!

The Fifth Hokage, is that right?!
I, Madara Uchiha, acknowledge you!
As expected of someone who inherited the title of Hokage after Hashirama Senju!
Since that's the case, then I'll give it my all!
"Wooden Release: The birth of the tree world!"

Another powerful Wood Release technique was unleashed, but given that the Flower Tree World Advent technique was ineffective, Madara Uchiha didn't bother using it again.

While the flowers of the Advent of the Tree World can use pollen to paralyze enemies, the Advent of the Tree World can also absorb chakra.

The earth trembled. This birth of the tree realm was more than twice the size of the previous birth of the flower tree realm!
Countless ancient trees, like pillars supporting the sky, rushed towards the fire shadow in the sky!
For a moment, both heaven and earth seemed to be a dead end!

"Humph."

Sensing the anomaly below, Sakura snorted coldly, and the Yin Seal on her forehead suddenly opened, causing a large amount of Sage Chakra stored within the Yin Seal to surge into her body!
Immortal mode!

In an instant, she entered Sage Mode, and the two Heavenly Meteorite strung together with iron rods in her hands now looked like toys!
"rise!"

Sakura let out a low shout, and at that moment she actually flew into the sky with the two meteorites in her arms!

"what?!"

Even Madara Uchiha was utterly shocked at this moment.

Although the Heavenly Meteorite was just an ordinary rock, its sheer size allowed the Hokage to carry two meteorites into the sky.

Nagato's defeat was not unjust!

However, the Hokage flew hundreds of meters high, holding two enormous objects in his hands, and his gaze was fixed directly on Uchiha Madara on the ground!

This guy wouldn't...

Madara Uchiha immediately sensed something was wrong.

"Here's your stone back."

Sakura sneered, then swung two meteorites strung together like candied hawthorns with her golden cudgel and hurled them heavily at Uchiha Madara!
Suddenly, a terrifying howling sound rang out in the sky, and everyone stared in astonishment at the scene!
A fierce wind enveloped the meteorite, which hurtled towards Uchiha Madara like the sky was falling!

Upon seeing this, Madara Uchiha immediately controlled the countless ancient trees in an attempt to intercept them!

Countless giant trees were woven into several large nets at this moment. The fact that such a feat could be accomplished in such a short time shows that Madara Uchiha was not only a top-tier ninja in terms of bloodline limit, but also in terms of chakra control!
However, it is as ridiculous as a fisherman trying to catch a blue whale with his net when the giant, overlapping nets are trying to intercept the high-speed meteorite!
The moment the giant net made contact with the meteorite, it let out a mournful cry of unbearable strain, and countless giant trees were destroyed, broken, and shattered!

Madara Uchiha wanted to dodge, but it was too late. He was hit head-on by the meteorite!

The Land of Frost is a coastal country, and Sakura deliberately chose a good angle to smash Uchiha Madara directly into the sea!

Madara Uchiha, like Hashirama Senju, belongs to a large combat unit. The Land of Frost is not uninhabited; a considerable number of unarmed civilians live in this icy land. In order to avoid harming innocent people, Sakura wants to set the battlefield on the sea!

The massive meteorite rolled across the ground, causing nearly half of the Frost Kingdom to tremble slightly!
The ninjas who were closest to the impact were able to feel the power of the two meteorites hitting the ground most directly!
Although the battlefield has been pushed back to the Land of Frost, it is now close to the Land of Fire. This is not only for the Land of Frost, but also for Sakura's own territory.

At that moment, a figure was seen rushing towards Uchiha Madara!

That is……

Kirabi!
Sakura frowned slightly as she looked at the figure.

The other party is being controlled by the Sharingan.

Was it at the very beginning?

He twirled the iron rod in his hand, then disappeared.

Although the Ape Demon King didn't speak, it was extremely difficult for him to throw those two Heavenly Obstacle Stars.

After all, the weight of these two stones is considerable; the Ape Demon King will probably need to recuperate for a while.

The indestructible body is not truly indestructible.

At that moment, two meteorites carrying Uchiha Madara crashed into the sea, instantly creating towering waves. The calm sea surface was shattered, and a tsunami hundreds of meters high spread into the depths of the ocean!

Sakura transformed into a pink streak of light and rushed towards Madara Uchiha, who had fallen into the sea!

how long……

It's been so long since I've encountered an opponent like this...

Madara Uchiha was not only smashed into the sea, but also crushed under the massive meteorite.

The surrounding area was filled with the omnipresent seawater, and the once calm seabed was now extremely murky, with visibility less than a meter.

At this moment, Madara Uchiha felt only excitement; he could feel his adrenaline surging!
Come!
fighting!

fighting!

Senju Hashirama!

After you, I met someone who is just as good as you!
I will defeat her, and then I will defeat you!

……

The Hokage stood high in the sky, gazing at the surging sea below. Compared to the turbulent ocean beneath her feet, her expression remained calm and composed.

this moment……

A huge shadow appeared beneath the sea!

That is……

Susanoo!

A giant blue hand emerged from the sea, seawater flowing down its arm. The giant hand pressed down on the sea surface, and then a colossal creature appeared on the seabed!

Countless seawater flowed down from Susanoo, and a colossal creature resembling a monk appeared in the Hokage's field of vision!

The other person stood on the seabed with their feet on the sky, even though the unfathomable ocean only submerged their lower body!
Susanoo raised its foot and stomped on the sea surface. With a single burst of strength, the enormous creature stood on the endless sea!

"The Godaime!"

"You are qualified to be my opponent!"

"Now, I'll show you my true strength!"

Madara Uchiha's arrogant voice emanated from Susanoo. The voice, accompanying the colossal creature, was like a divine decree, resounding throughout the heavens and earth. The originally turbulent sea surface quickly calmed down under the influence of this voice.

Upon seeing this, the Hokage's lips curled into a mocking smile.

The Uchiha clan is the same.

They enjoy using various flashy combat techniques in battle.

This is what is known as showing off skills.

Even Madara Uchiha couldn't avoid this.

The opponent used his exquisite chakra control skills, using sound as a medium, to demonstrate his chakra control techniques in front of the Hokage.

The sea, which had been roaring incessantly just moments before, was now as docile as a cat under Madara Uchiha's control.

At this moment, the Susanoo, which resembled a monk, formed a Buddhist mudra with its hands, and its huge eyes suddenly ignited with a captivating flame. In an instant, it transformed into a four-armed warrior standing proudly between heaven and earth!
The samurai even had a samurai sword that was over a hundred meters long hanging from his waist!

"Hokage, come on!"

"fighting!"

Madara Uchiha's almost undisguised excitement did not frighten the Hokage in the slightest; instead, it brought a mocking smile to his face.

She parted her thin lips slightly.

The girl's unique voice echoed between heaven and earth.

"Madara Uchiha."

"Is your Susanoo sturdy enough?"

— Entrance to Ryongchi Cave

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Itachi Uchiha had already found Orochimaru through the unique connection between the reanimated versions of Orochimaru.

but……

Looking at the figure before him, Hiruzen Sarutobi's face was extremely gloomy.

With blond hair and blue eyes, clad in the Hokage's robes, the former Fourth Hokage, the Golden Flash...

Minato Namikaze!

"Orochimaru, that guy..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi is ugly.

Minato Namikaze died after using the Reaper Death Seal to seal half of the Nine-Tails.

Logically speaking, Minato Namikaze's soul should be inside the stomach of a Shinigami (death god), and it would be impossible for him to be summoned by the Impure World Reincarnation.

What method did Orochimaru use to summon Minato Namikaze?

Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.

Moreover, judging from the expressionless faces of the current group of feng shuimen, it is clear that Orochimaru has erased their minds and turned them into killing machines that only obey Orochimaru's orders.

"Third generation lord, leave the fourth generation to me."

Orochimaru is inside.

Uchiha Itachi looked at Namikaze Minato in front of him and spoke calmly.

"you?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Itachi Uchiha with suspicion.

Although Minato Namikaze's mind was erased and his strength may have been reduced, he was still no match for Itachi Uchiha.

Users of the Flying Thunder God always hold the initiative.

Whether to fight or run depends entirely on the opponent's decision.

Moreover, because of Minato Namikaze's near-human-limit-limit reflexes, even if the opponent lost his mind, he would still be an extremely troublesome opponent.

Not only that, the opponent also possesses extremely advanced sealing techniques.

The sealing technique of the Fire Sealing Seal also meant that Itachi Uchiha's Amaterasu was essentially useless.

As for Tsukuyomi, the opponent is not even in a state of consciousness, so this eye technique is ineffective.

Hiruzen Sarutobi simply couldn't believe that Itachi Uchiha could defeat the mentally unstable Minato Namikaze in front of him.

"...Please believe me, Lord Third Generation."

Itachi Uchiha seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

He wanted to reveal his trump card, but looking at Minato Namikaze in front of him, he worried that Orochimaru would find out and thus take precautions.

"Well, be careful yourself."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded; this was the only option left.

Madara Uchiha is still on the front lines. In order to undo Madara Uchiha's Impure World Reincarnation, we must first deal with Orochimaru.

Although Sakura is very strong, Madara Uchiha is no weakling either.

Having witnessed the power of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha in his childhood, Hiruzen Sarutobi clearly knew the extent of their strength.

With that thought in mind, Hiruzen Sarutobi rushed towards Ryuchi Cave at top speed.

Just as Minato Namikaze was about to stop him, a scarlet skeletal arm slammed down on him.

However, in less than a blink of an eye, Minato Namikaze vanished instantly and then reappeared in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi!

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked closely and realized that the entire entrance to Ryuchi Cave was covered with Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God Inscription!

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was about to make his move, black flames suddenly burst forth from Minato Namikaze's body.

Amaterasu!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hiruzen Sarutobi disregarded Minato Namikaze and charged into the depths of Ryuchi Cave, enduring a Rasengan attack!
At this moment, only Itachi Uchiha and Minato Namikaze remained at the entrance of Ryuchi Cave.

Uchiha Itachi calmly watched as the Fourth Hokage in front of him tore off his divine robe, and the Amaterasu that was supposed to burn everything was so easily broken.

"I never expected to be able to fight the Fourth Hokage. If I can bring your mind back from Orochimaru's grasp..."

"Then shouldn't my sins be reduced by even a little...?"

Uchiha Itachi spoke calmly. He took a step forward, and his crimson half-body Susanoo suddenly activated. He then grabbed the gourd at his waist!
Ten Fist Swords!
……

Hiruzen Sarutobi walked through Ryuchi Cave, moving forward step by step based on his connection to the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

Ryuchi Cave, which should be teeming with snakes, was surprisingly devoid of a single snake as Hiruzen Sarutobi traveled along its path.

Humph……

Hiruzen Sarutobi snorted coldly.

Ryuchi Cave actually helped Orochimaru target Konoha.

Once the war outside is over, have Sakura wipe out these dead snakes as soon as possible.

However, this is not the time to do this. Hiruzen Sarutobi needs to find Orochimaru and undo the Impure World Reincarnation.

The Impure World Reincarnation technique is not without its limitations, and Hiruzen Sarutobi, as a ninjutsu expert, naturally had his own methods.

Back when Orochimaru had previously used the Impure World Reincarnation technique to resurrect the two Hokage, Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju, and later when Sakura summoned Tobirama Senju, causing chaos in Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi was already thinking about how to deal with the Impure World Reincarnation technique when it went out of control.

I thought I would never need this method again, but I never expected to use it now.

As they drew closer to the point of connection between the Impure World Reincarnation and the physical realm of the deceased, a figure emerged from the darkness.

"Is that the Third Hokage?"

"Lord Orochimaru has been waiting for a long time."

Kabuto looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with a humble expression.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the person in front of him, his tiger-like eyes narrowing slightly.

He knew this person; he was a relatively senior genin in Konoha.

I never expected it to be one of Orochimaru's people.

"lead the way."

Hiruzen Sarutobi snorted coldly, then spoke.

With the presence of the Impure World Reincarnation technique, Hiruzen Sarutobi was not worried about where the other party could take him.

"Please follow me."

Kabuto, with a respectful expression, led the way for Hiruzen Sarutobi.

When the two walked out of a dark corridor, the scene before them left Hiruzen Sarutobi stunned.

He stared in disbelief at the scene before him, and spoke with a trembling voice:

"First, First Generation Master?!"

At this moment, a tall man wearing crimson armor and with cascading black hair is playing dice with Orochimaru.

"Oh, Sarutobi has arrived."

"If this young man hadn't said you would come, I wouldn't have believed it."

The man named Senju Hashirama laughed as he looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was frozen in place.

"Hehe, teacher, it's been a long time."

Orochimaru smiled as he looked at his teacher.

"Orochimaru!"

"You actually..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi roared, intending to accuse Orochimaru of resurrecting the First Hokage with Edo Tensei, but he was speechless when he saw Hashirama Senju's clear eyes.

Hashirama Senju... his mind was not erased!

"First Generation Lord, do you know who you are sitting opposite?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi stared intently at Hashirama Senju before him and spoke.

“I know, this young man has told me everything that has happened recently.”

Hashirama Senju nodded.

"Then why are you?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi suppressed his unease and spoke.

"Hiruzen, did that child who stopped me and Tobirama start the war?"

Hashirama Senju looked at his disciple and spoke in a deep voice.

"You mean Sakura?"

"she!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's unease grew, and he had a vague premonition of something bad happening.

“This young man told me everything.”

"By restricting exports of resources from the Land of Fire, the Fourth Shinobi World War broke out three years ago."

"Now, while maintaining peaceful relations with the nobles, they control the Seven-Tails of Takigakure, assassinate the daimyo, destroy the daimyo's mansion, and take the new daimyo hostage, causing Konoha to be surrounded by enemies, and then a new war breaks out once again."

"Did that child do all of this?"

Faced with Hashirama Senju's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi opened his mouth, unsure of what to say.

He wanted to explain for Sakura, but...

It seems inexplicable.

Because all of this was indeed done by Hiruzen Sarutobi's closed-door disciple.

Even though Danzo Shimura was the instigator of the Fourth Shinobi World War three years ago, the root of everything was Sakura's exam paper.

After all, no one could have imagined that Shimura Danzo would steal a ninja academy student's graduation exam paper.

"I didn't believe any of this at first."

"But I didn't expect..."

A look of desolation appeared on Hashirama Senju's face.

He originally thought highly of that pink-clad little girl.

"That's why I'm willing to wait for you here."

"But judging from your expression..."

"This young man doesn't seem to be deceiving me."

Hashirama Senju's words made Hiruzen Sarutobi frown deeply.

"Hashirama-sensei, everything Sakura did was for Konoha."

Hashirama Senju nodded in agreement and continued:

"That child is the current Hokage of Konoha."

"She is the pillar of everyone in Konoha, and her every move is related to the survival of Konoha."

"That's why her path cannot deviate in the slightest."

When a junior makes a mistake, a senior should point it out and provide guidance.

"The reason I founded Konoha was that I didn't want the children to have to go to the battlefield again."

"It seems that the child needs guidance now..."

Hashirama Senju put down the dice in his hand and looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with a serious expression.

"That is to say..."

"Teacher, are you planning to stop Sakura?"

Upon seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi asked in return.

"It's regrettable, but Konoha shouldn't have been the one to start the war, especially since that child is the Hokage."

"We should stop that child now, before Konoha is harmed..."

Hashirama Senju's words made Hiruzen Sarutobi feel a chill run down his spine.
