In the Sand Village, the clones are everywhere, and the Arkham game begins

Chapter 419 Senju Hashirama
Orochimaru couldn't possibly say out loud these thoughts in his mind.

At least it can't reach Senju Tobirama's ears.

If he heard that Orochimaru wanted to create another eye like Uchiha Madara's, the old guy might get furious on the spot.

"Master Tobirama, if we inject some of the cells of the First Generation into the body of the sacrifice, I wonder if it can further enhance the strength of the Impure World Reincarnation?"

Orochimaru continued to ask Senju Tobirama.

"I tried it when I was still alive, but it didn't work. Unless it's someone who can perfectly adapt to Big Brother's cells, it won't work."

Senju Tobirama finally stopped in front of a secret room in the prison.

"Let's find a way to deal with the current difficulties first. The cards we have in our hands are enough to deal with this crisis. Orochimaru, cancel the Impure World Reincarnation."

"Well then… I'll see you later, Tobirama-sama."

Orochimaru smiled elegantly, stretched out his hand to make a seal, and released the Impure World Reincarnation.

Confetti flew around and fell, and the stern man in blue armor finally disappeared in front of the door.

The door of the secret room opened and Orochimaru stepped inside.

The two fat men, the God of Wind and the God of Thunder, were sleeping soundly, leaning against each other, in the middle of the secret room.

On the table not far away, there was a pile of leftovers.

There are drugs in here that can make people sleep.

After tying up the God of Wind and the God of Thunder with two thick iron chains, Orochimaru separated the two fat men, then bit his fingers and formed seals with his hands.

A complicated spiritual spell appeared, and the two sleeping fat men opened their eyes at this moment and let out terrifying screams.

Amid the shrill cries, two obese bodies gradually changed. With the input of two souls coming out from the Pure Land, two figures, one red and one blue, gradually opened their eyes.

Feeling the chains on his body, two terrifying streams of chakra suddenly gushed out.

Senju Hashirama exerted slight force but failed to break free. He was somewhat surprised at how weak his current strength was. He then put in a little more strength and finally managed to pull the chain free.

Senju Tobirama formed a seal with one hand and spit out a thin high-pressure water blade from his mouth, cutting the chain.

"Orochimaru, the effect this time was unexpectedly good."

Sensing the amount of chakra and physical strength of this body, Senju Tobirama spoke calmly.

"Tobirama, what's going on?"

"You and I were resurrected by our juniors using the Impure World Reincarnation Technique, big brother."

"Eh? Impure World Reincarnation, didn't I ask you to seal it up..."

"That's because the village is in big trouble."

"I see. By the way... who are you?"

Senju Hashirama tilted his head and looked at Orochimaru.

"Shodai-sama, I am the fourth Hokage after Sarutobi Sensei, and I am also the one who performed the Impure World Reincarnation Technique."

"Oh~ So you are Monkey's student. You are already the fourth generation. Is the village doing well now?"

Senju Tobirama sighed helplessly.

Sure enough, it was still this familiar feeling.

I just said it.

If the situation in the village was good, why would Orochimaru have nothing better to do than to summon the two of them through the Impure World Reincarnation?
Orochimaru said:

"I'm sorry, Master Shodaime. I am the temporary successor to the position of Hokage after the death of Sarutobi Sensei. The village is now at its most dangerous moment since its establishment. If we are not careful, there is a risk of being defeated from now on."

"It seems that my original idea failed. Even now, there is still war."

Senju Hashirama sighed, but did not seem discouraged at all.

Perhaps when he was alive, he had thought about the possibility of the failure of the ninja village system.

So the God of Ninja simply sat on the ground and looked at Orochimaru.

"Yondaime, if you are not in a hurry, then tell me the cause and effect of everything first. It would be best if you can start from when I leave this world."

"Well, Shodai-sama, I will try to be brief."

Orochimaru also sat cross-legged with a smile on his face opposite Hashirama Senju, and began to talk about the First Ninja World War after Hashirama Senju's death, and then went on to talk about Shimizu, who had brought about earth-shaking changes in the entire Sand Village since the Second Ninja World War.

Finally, the story continues to about how the Third Hokage followed in the footsteps of the Second Hokage and died in battle, large tracts of territory in the west and northwest of the Fire Nation were occupied, and Konoha Village was left to passively suffer a beating.

Orochimaru's narration was very objective, without too much embellishment in his words.

"So, the young man from the Sand Village named Shimizu is quite capable. Maybe the path he chose is the right one."

Senju Hashirama touched his chin and said with a silly expression on his face.

"So, what is your choice, Master Shodai?"

Orochimaru said politely.

"According to my original intention, the dead should not disturb the world of the living. At least when I was building the village, no strong man who had been dead for many years came out to stop me."

"Big brother..."

Senju Tobirama interrupted.

"Please be patient, Tobirama. You can't call us out every time something happens to the juniors. It's okay once, but what about twice? Three times?

If it is possible now, what about in a hundred or two hundred years? By then, the village will have become something else, and the people in the village will be so distant from us that we can’t expect them to continue to take action. "

Senju Hashirama said calmly.

In the original time and space, he was willing to take action because Orochimaru said that Uchiha Madara was resurrected before them and planned to kill all the ninjas.

As soon as they heard the name Uchiha Madara, both the Senju brothers and Sarutobi Hiruzen became excited on the spot.

"So you're not going to take action?"

Orochimaru said with some regret.

If this is really the case, it would just be equivalent to having one more top-level combat force, Tobirama Senju.

If he had known this earlier, he should have been reincarnated as the Third Hokage.

"If possible, I don't want to take action, but the village is my hard work after all, and I don't want to see the village encounter such a thing, so I hope to talk to the people in charge of the Sand Village and calm down the war temporarily. As for the rest of the matter, leave it to your descendants to handle it. Fourth Daeme, I can see that you are a very outstanding junior, and I believe in your talent."

After hearing this, Orochimaru felt relieved.

He didn't think that the Sand Village, which currently had the upper hand, would be willing to end the war like this.

Konoha Village was also unwilling to do so unless the Sand Village returned the occupied territory.

But will the Sand Village agree?

I'm afraid that Hashirama Senju will have to take action even if he doesn't want to.

He wanted to talk, and really felt that talking could bring about change, simply because he was Hashirama Senju.

A simple person who can conquer the ninja world, but whose brain is not very bright and who trusts too much in the bright side of human nature. And Orochimaru believes that Hashirama Senju also understands one thing.

Once a conflict arises between the two parties, it will be difficult for both parties to sit down and talk quietly unless one side wins or a higher-level force intervenes.

If Senju Hashirama doesn't even understand this, then we only need to cite the example of him and Uchiha Madara.

"Someone's here. It's the Anbu. Maybe something's up."

Senju Tobirama suddenly looked outside the door and said.

His perception ability is top-notch.

"Fourth-generation sama, the intelligence squad is urgently summoning."

A voice sounded from outside the secret room.

"Let's talk outside."

Orochimaru spoke up.

"The Sand Village divided its troops. One group continued to head north, led by Luo Sha. Another group headed towards the capital, and the leader was suspected to be Ye Cang, who used the Scorch Release technique."

The Anbu ninja knelt on one knee outside the door and lowered his head.

Orochimaru laughed instead.

"You should step back first."

"Yes."

After a few seconds, Orochimaru said to Senju Hashirama:
"Shodai-sama, it looks like we have to deal with the current situation before we can talk to the Sand Village."

"Brother, the Yondaime is right."

Senju Tobirama also followed suit to dissuade him.

"Ah... there really is no way to avoid war. I hope that after the war, the kid will be willing to talk to me."

Senju Hashirama said helplessly, covering his forehead.

After coming out of the secret room, Orochimaru immediately issued an order, asking the fastest Minato Namikaze to lead an elite team to set off immediately to support the capital of the Land of Fire, and asked Jiraiya to join the team led by Yuhi Shinku to stop Rasa.

With the remaining strength, Orochimaru believed it was enough to defeat Shimizu.

The mere presence of Tobirama Senju, who had recovered most of his strength, was enough to fill the void immediately created by Minato Namikaze.

And the strength of Hashirama Senju is not to be underestimated. Even though his strength is less than half of what it was in his prime, it is still beyond the scope of ordinary Kage-level powerhouses.

At worst, Orochimaru is considered to be at least at the level of Jiraiya in Sage Mode, and with his body of Impure World Reincarnation, his endurance is not even comparable to Jiraiya's.

Now the only top fighter in the Sand Village on the opposite side is Shimizu.

As long as his strength does not inexplicably rise to a higher level, or the Sand Village does not have a new top combat force, they, Konoha, will definitely win this time!

I just don't know if Shimizu's life can be saved here. The attitude of the first Hokage is really too Buddhist.

"Oh? Konoha is also sending out troops?"

The Sand Village, which had been keeping an eye on Konoha, soon detected the movements on the other side.

"It's time to take action, Shimizu."

Scorpion, who was sitting opposite Qingshui, put away the book in his hand and said to Qingshui.

"If Konoha has sent out its top fighters to stop Rasa and Yekura, it means they are weak now. If not, then we should also send out our top fighters to pin down their high-end fighters, so that Rasa and Yekura can succeed more easily."

"I know, but Konoha must have another trump card. You better be careful on the battlefield later."

"I will be more cautious with a Taijutsu ninja who can use forbidden techniques."

Upon hearing this, Scorpion nodded slightly to show that he understood.

He felt that Qingshui was concerned about him as a friend.

This kind of melee ninja with particularly fierce charge is the nemesis of the Puppet Master. Although Scorpion has made some preparations and supplements in this regard, it is still a relative shortcoming of his.

Shimizu has been paying special attention to this physical ninja who can use forbidden techniques in Konoha these past few days. He even attaches more importance to it than Orochimaru and Jiraiya, the two current leaders of Konoha. Naturally, Sasori will be more on guard.

Ninjas are very mobile during war. Not long after Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze left, the Sand Village received the news, assembled their troops, and began to march towards Konoha's most important fortress.

What surprised them was that this time, Konoha did not hold its ground like it did in previous times, but instead took the initiative to gather together like them.

At this moment, the Sand Village began to be cautious.

With Orochimaru's talent, it is impossible for him not to analyze that they would launch an attack at this time. This can only mean that Konoha must have some trump card and is waiting for them as a conspiracy.

"Never mind, let's bomb it first, bombard the area ahead with artillery fire."

Qingshui gave the order very straightforwardly.

So one puppeteer after another quickly took out the sealing scrolls and assembled the accessories on the spot to form launch pads.

A few seconds later, fireworks shot into the sky and stars fell like rain.

Soon, the ninjas of the Sand Village knew where Konoha's confidence came from.

From afar, you can see huge and sturdy trees wriggling and breaking through the earth. They instantly turn into a huge forest and weave a thick protective layer in the air to block all attacks.

"This is... Wood Release!"

Feng Shang Qianlan held up the telescope and looked at the tall trees in the distance, his pupils shrinking involuntarily.

At his age, he grew up shortly after the death of the first Hokage, but his influence was still there.

"The Senju of the Forest... Has there been another Wood Release Kekkei Genkai owner since the First Hokage?"

"I'm afraid not."

Qingshui looked gloomily at the dense forest in the distance that appeared in just a few breaths.

"Could it be... Impure World Reincarnation? But this technique hasn't appeared for a long time since the death of the Second Hokage, and the biggest function of this technique is to lure the enemy, remove traps, or use it to reincarnate the enemy's teammates and deal a blow to the enemy's spirit and morale. The power is not that strong..."

A veteran jonin in his forties said with a look of doubt on his face.

He had experienced the First Ninja World War. At that time, he was already a special jonin with a certain amount of experience and knew this information.

Shimizu also thought it was the Impure World Reincarnation, but he couldn't imagine how Orochimaru managed to revive the Impure World Reincarnation's strength.

Now there is no White Zetsu to serve as a sacrifice for him. No matter how talented Orochimaru is, at most he can be like in the original time and space, when Konoha was destroyed, with a certain level of strength in his Impure World Reincarnation body, and can intervene in the Kage-level confrontation.

But the way it looks now doesn't seem to be that serious at all.

In such a huge forest, even if Hashirama Senju did not possess all his strength at the peak, he would probably have some of the strength he had at that time.

If he could reach 70% or 80%, Qingshui estimated that he might not be his opponent.

However, even at his true peak, Qingshui is confident that he can protect himself and escape unscathed.

But I'm afraid that among the army under his command, not many people will survive.

"Master Shimizu, I sense an extremely powerful chakra approaching."
