Naruto: Nawaki was already dead, how could you bring him back to life?

As Madara Uchiha took a step forward, Chiba took two steps back, as if afraid that Madara would attack him. Seeing this, Madara laughed even louder.

"Ban...Ban-senpai."

At this moment, Chiba seemed to have made up his mind and said through gritted teeth, "I heard that you have no children. If you don't mind, I would like to take care of you in your old age."

"WTF?!"

Madara Uchiha's smile froze, and he doubted his ears. He never expected that someone of his strength and status would hear such words in his lifetime.

Retirement? To him? Uchiha Madara?!

Chapter 109 Chiba VS Third Mizukage

Chiba's move was too unconventional, leaving even Madara Uchiha, who had spent half his life on the battlefield and experienced countless storms, completely stunned for two and a half minutes.

"Hmph, just say it, kid, what do you want from me?"

After a moment, Madara Uchiha realized what was happening, snorted coldly, and looked at Chiba.

"Senpai Madara, I want to do what you couldn't do back then. I want to become the first Hokage of Konoha who comes from the Uchiha clan."

"I have a dream: in Konoha under my rule, no one will look at the Uchiha with strange eyes anymore, and all clansmen can hold their heads high and enjoy the same rights and obligations as other villagers."

"But with my current abilities, I can't do that, so I hope to get your help," Chiba Shrimp said jokingly.

"Hmph, you little brat, you dare to scheme against me."

Madara Uchiha wasn't angry at all; instead, he looked at Chiba with newfound respect.

It is no exaggeration to say that even the Five Kage of the present day might not be able to remain calm in the face of him, but Chiba not only remained calm, but even wanted to borrow his power. This courage alone far surpasses that of ordinary people.

"This boy might be able to be of use to me."

Upon learning that Chiba had a request of him, Madara Uchiha felt relieved. In this world, only relationships based on self-interest are truly reliable and unchanging.

"I have no obligation to help you. If you want my help, prove your worth first."

After a moment of contemplation, Madara Uchiha spoke coldly.

In Chiba, Madara seemed to see his younger self—equally ambitious and audacious—so he decided to give Chiba a chance.

However, even to be a pawn in Madara Uchiha's game, not just anyone is qualified; trash is beneath his notice.

"Alright, senior, please give me your instructions. How can I prove myself?" Chiba asked with a smile.

Chiba felt that if they could defeat Uchiha Madara with strategy, it would be better to avoid using force. It wasn't that he was a coward, but it was just unnecessary, right?

"See this guy in front of you? Survive him, or kill him!"

Before Madara Uchiha could finish speaking, his figure rippled like water, transforming back into the form of the Third Mizukage.

"So, you mean you killed the Third Mizukage, whom you were controlling?"

Chiba stopped smiling, and his expression became somewhat serious.

Very little information about the Third Mizukage circulates in the ninja world. He was like a transparent person; no one had ever seen him make a move, or rather, none of those who had witnessed his actions had escaped death.

In short, as the Kage of a village, the Third Mizukage's strength should not be underestimated, and now the one playing this account is the Tetsudai... How are we supposed to fight him?!

"Wind Release: Spiral Shuriken!"

Chiba's figure suddenly rose into the air, launching a sneak attack without any regard for martial ethics.

He chose the faster-condensing Wind Release: Shuriken and hurled it towards the Third Mizukage opposite him.

Wow!

Long before the Rasenshuriken struck, the Third Mizukage's body dissipated into streams of water.

In Madara Uchiha's eyes, the trajectory of the Rasenshuriken was too obvious, making it easy to predict and allowing him to easily move away from its attack range.

Water Release: Thousand Blades Assault!

Streams of water swirled toward Chiba in mid-air, transforming into countless water spikes under the influence of chakra, piercing Chiba like thousands of steel needles.

"Replacement Technique!"

Fearing being captured by Madara Uchiha, Chiba did not scatter to avoid him, but instead chose to take his place without hesitation.

call out!call out!call out!

The stand in the sky was pierced into a hedgehog by the whistling water needles, while Chiba's figure slowly emerged on the ground together with the Third Mizukage.

"The Dance of Shikigami: Paper Rain!"

Chiba spread his wings again, and sharp paper scrolls shot out like arrows, spinning as they pierced towards the Third Mizukage opposite him.

Swish!Swish!Swish!

Faced with the incoming paper shikigami, the Third Mizukage neither dodged nor evaded. The parts of his body that came into contact with the paper shikigami instantly turned into liquid, and the paper shikigami passed right through him without causing him any harm.

"Does this guy have the bloodline of the Hozuki clan? His true form can liquefy at will."

Chiba muttered to himself, planning to use the Shikigami Dance to ascend into the air and create distance between himself and the Third Mizukage.

"Wait, what's going on?!"

But at that moment, Chiba's pupils suddenly contracted. He suddenly realized that he could no longer use the Shikigami Dance. A strange force severed his connection with the Shikigami.

"Water Release: Rain Slash!"

The Third Mizukage formed hand seals, a secret technique that weakens all ninjutsu and chakra except for Water Release. When he used it, it directly reduced Chiba's skills to gray by more than half.

"Water Release·Water Release!"

Taking advantage of Chiba's momentary lapse in movement, the Third Mizukage raised his arm and unleashed a barrage of high-pressure water jets at Chiba.

"Water Release chakra isn't restricted... Water Release: Water Shock Wave!"

Chiba quickly guessed what was going on. He clasped his hands together and used Water Release in response. A rapidly spinning water tornado shot into the sky, sweeping away all the incoming water bullets.

"Is this a technique from that bastard Tobirama Senju?"

The Third Mizukage's face immediately darkened. He used Water Release techniques to strengthen his arms, transforming his hands into water blades as he charged towards Chiba.

"Hmm, what's gotten into old Deng all of a sudden?"

Chiba was completely bewildered, not knowing what had triggered Madara Uchiha to abandon his previous steady and methodical approach and charge straight in.

"Water Release: Wave Riding Strike & Water Blade Slash!"

Chiba, confused, countered with two more Water Release techniques from Tobirama Senju, gliding rapidly across the water created by the previous Water Release technique and using Water Release chakra to condense a water blade for a counterattack.

"Is this brat deliberately trying to annoy me?!"

Seeing this, Madara Uchiha was furious.

As a result, the Third Mizukage attacked even more frantically, their water blades almost becoming afterimages, splashing water everywhere.

Fortunately, Chiba's water jutsu skills were quite solid. He managed to steal all of Kosuke's water jutsu techniques, which allowed him to hold his own against the opponent.

"How interesting, two 'Uchiha' are actually fighting with Water Release, and they're both using it really well," Chiba thought to himself.

After a fierce battle.

As the Third Mizukage used more chakra to perform Water Release techniques, Chiba keenly sensed that the Rain Cutting Technique's restrictions on him were gradually weakening.

"Storm Release: Thundercloud Wave!"

Chiba seized the opportunity, forcefully breaking free from Kiriyu's restraints. He raised his hand and summoned a black thundercloud, with rolling lightning piercing towards the Third Mizukage in front of him along his fingers.

"Water Release: Rain Curtain!"

The Third Mizukage remained calm, forming hand seals to summon a water shield in front of him to defend against the impending lightning.

"Who uses water to block electricity... Holy crap?!"

Chiba originally wanted to mock Madara for not understanding physics, but to his surprise, the rolling lightning struck the water shield and didn't even make a splash; it was swallowed up by the shield.

Just as Chiba was questioning the meaning of life, he suddenly recalled a physics principle: water conducts electricity, but pure water conducts almost nothing...

"Damn it, has this guy's control over water escaping reached such a level?"

"Madara, you're so meticulous about your partner... oh, just a little bit, I forgot you don't have a partner." Chiba cursed inwardly.

"Is that all you've got? How boring. You can't even beat such a weak guy."

As if sensing Chiba's thoughts, the Third Mizukage opposite him gave him a mocking smile and spoke provocatively.

Although he wasn't fighting with his true form, the long-awaited opportunity to "instruct" a junior still gave Madara a thrilling feeling.

"Damn it, I'm so angry!"

Madara Uchiha stood with his hands on his hips, looking like he was saying, "I love that you can't stand me but can't do anything about it," which made Chiba furious.

"Hmph, it's not your true form that's here, I refuse to believe I can't deal with you!"

After a moment of contemplation, Chiba decided to take advantage of his massive chakra reserves and use Lava Release to directly clash with the opponent's before the opponent could use Rain of Slash again, thus drying the opponent out!

"Five-Tails, lend me your power!"

Chiba shouted into the sealed space without waiting for the Five-Tails' response, and started attacking, his aura instantly becoming violent.

By revealing the Five-Tails, he could prove both that he indeed harbored ambitions to overthrow Konoha and that he possessed the ability to capture tailed beasts.

If Chiba could recruit him, it would be like giving away a tailed beast for free. Chiba didn't believe that Madara Uchiha wouldn't be tempted.

"This kid actually managed to take down the Five-Tails?!"

As Chiba expected, Madara Uchiha showed a look of astonishment, and even seemed momentarily lost in thought.

Since his main body wasn't there, he hadn't realized that the five-tailed beast was actually hidden inside the half of the Otsutsuki opposite him.

"Lava Release - Chakra Mode!"

With a low shout, Chiba transformed into a burning meteor and charged toward the Third Mizukage, unleashing a torrent of Lava Release chakra and Five-Tails chakra from his body as if they were free.

"Magma Fruit - Volcanic Eruption!"

Chiba's attack focused on chakra suppression, instantly unleashing a torrent of magma that crashed towards the Third Mizukage like a raging sea of ​​fire.

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"

After a brief moment of surprise, Madara Uchiha quickly regained his senses and erected a tall water wall between the two.
