Konoha: Unable to learn ninjutsu, they had to develop their own.

In his spiritualized state, he controlled a portion of his soul to manipulate his hands into forming hand seals.

"I will agree to any number of offerings."

Wanshe felt a chill run down his spine, swallowed hard, and was filled with fear and panic.

His soul has vanished, as if it has gone to follow others.

Hashirama Senju glanced at his feet, then quickly formed a hand seal.

Then, he clasped his hands together, and the patterns of a sage appeared on his forehead.

Orochimaru interrupted first.

This guy clearly hadn't studied the Impure World Reincarnation technique, yet he quickly deciphered his own Impure World Reincarnation method.

"Yes, First Hokage, this is Orochimaru's summoning beast. Oh, you may not know Orochimaru, but that's not important. Its existence is extremely dangerous, and I suggest sealing it away."

Second is...

It's still engraved on the Hokage Rock behind Konoha.

run!

Staying here will lead to death.

but.

Chiba's mental attack far exceeded his expectations, and the escape of the First and Second Hokage was even more unexpected. If he didn't run away soon, he would be beaten up by the Third Hokage in turn.

Trees fell one after another, his chakra was sealed, and torii gates pinned him to the ground, rendering him unable to move.

"Orochimaru, you've tricked me again!"

The ten thousand snakes roared in grief and anger.

I was hit by the Five Elements Great Combo once before, and this time it was Hashirama Senju. What have I done to deserve fighting against the God of Shinobi who has already died!

What's most infuriating is...

These two guys seem to have been summoned by Orochimaru, but due to some accidents, Orochimaru went too far.

It wished it could kill Orochimaru immediately.

however.

This is the Immortal Technique: Bright God Gate.

It can even imprison tailed beasts, let alone a mere summoning beast.

"Although this state is weak, it should be enough to imprison you. They open their mouths to offer sacrifices and close their mouths to eat people. The people of Ryuchi Cave are indeed very dangerous."

Hashirama Senju's expression was serious.

Manda lay motionless on the ground, feeling utterly aggrieved, but still begged for mercy: "Lord Hashirama, please forgive me, I... I won't do it again!"

"Ha, if apologies and promises were enough, what would be the point of rules and laws?"

Chiba stood aside and sneered.

"You brat, I... I really won't do it again!"

Manda originally wanted to say "I'll eat you," but seeing Hashirama Senju's kind expression, he immediately swallowed the rest of his words.

Hashirama Senju nodded in agreement: "It is indeed very dangerous. You seem to know sealing techniques and Sage Mode? Then I'll leave it to you to handle."

"Yes."

Chiba nodded.

He was too busy raising a bunch of insects every day, so the arrival of ten thousand snakes was just the right thing to do—perfect fodder.

Unfortunately.

He doesn't know "Izanami," otherwise he could have Manda continuously generate Sage Chakra for him.

Furthermore.

With Danzo's one hand, he could easily persuade at least ten people to "turn back from their misguided ways," and he might even be able to figure out a beggar's version of Izanami through repeated experiments.

And now.

"I urge you to maintain the Ming Shen Sect for as long as possible."

"Well, at least we can hold out for an hour now. I'll go deal with the others first. These guys are really something, making a mess of Konoha."

Hashirama Senju grumbled angrily, then headed towards the Third Hokage's location.

Jiraiya, Fukasaku, and Shima stood frozen in place.

"W-what on earth is going on?"

He couldn't understand.

At the very beginning, Orochimaru used the terrifying Impure World Reincarnation technique, controlling the First and Second Hokage, and even Jiraiya felt that he could not defeat them.

result.

The arrival of a young boy completely reversed the course of the battle.

The issue is--

“This is too easy!”

Jiraiya couldn't help but mutter to himself, "How could I have been so determined to die in battle..."

"The Impure World Reincarnation is indeed powerful, but he shouldn't have summoned the First and Second Hokage, because they are the people who understand the Impure World Reincarnation the most."

Chiba shrugged.

If they were Jonin who died in battle, all he could do was release them from their restraints, and then Orochimaru would release the Impure World Reincarnation, meaning he would receive no help from either side.

The current situation can only be described as Orochimaru being too greedy, daring to even try his luck with the First and Second Hokage, showing utter disregard for these two legendary figures.

Jiraiya paused for a moment, then asked, "You've also studied the Impure World Reincarnation?"

"No, I've only read some fragmented records in books, but it's not hard to deduce that no ninjutsu is perfect, and forbidden techniques are even more so."

As Chiba spoke, he expanded his senses.

There shouldn't be any problems with the third generation.

With the support of the God of Shinobi, let alone the mere Fourth Kazekage, even if all four previous Kazekage came, they wouldn't be a match for Hashirama Senju.

Even if he was just a reincarnated body.

As for the myriad snakes.

If it can last for an hour, there's no need to rush.

As for Orochimaru's side...

Chiba sensed that Tobirama Senju's spiritual form had caught up, and with the speed of a soul's flight, Orochimaru had no chance of escaping.

"Lord Jiraiya, I'll go deal with the tailed beasts first. What about you?"

"..."

Jiraiya glanced at Gamabunta, who was fighting Shukaku, and fell into deep thought.

You'll deal with the Tailed Beasts?

These days, Konoha ninjas really don't know how to be humble.

but.

I heard from the First Generation that this child can also use Sage Mode?

Jiraiya was deep in thought when the hermit nudged him.

Then, the two toads pointed in the direction Orochimaru had fled.

"Oh right, please go ahead, I still need to track down Orochimaru!"

Jiraiya then remembered...

Orochimaru ran away!

Jiraiya's main purpose in returning to the village was to target Orochimaru, and the so-called "Konoha Crush Plan" had crossed his bottom line.

He could not tolerate Orochimaru doing such a thing.

"The Second Hokage is tracking Orochimaru using his Spirit Transformation Technique, but as you wish, I'll go and quiet down the One-Tail first."

"Spiritual transformation technique?"

Jiraiya paused for a moment after hearing this, and then gave up the idea of ​​tracking Orochimaru.

If even the Second Hokage, who possessed the Spirit Transformation Technique, couldn't catch up with Orochimaru, then it would be futile for him to follow, especially since Konoha still had many battles to fight.

Forget it.

"Let's deal with the others first."

"Ah."

Chiba instantly teleported towards Bunta and Ichibi.

Jiraiya stared at his retreating figure, then asked with some doubt, "Boss, Big Sister, he's also mastered Sage Mode? Can you tell who he is?"

"do not know."

Fukasaku shook his head. "Sage Mode isn't unique to Mount Myōboku. Long ago, many sects used natural energy, while chakra was the minority."

"Ninjutsu?"

"Yes, back then only the Ninja Clan used chakra, but later, fewer and fewer people used natural energy, and more and more people used chakra..."

The immortal sighed softly, "Ultimately, one reason is that natural energy itself is decreasing, and the other is that natural energy has an extremely high threshold."

"You mean, the Immortal Mode he possesses might be a lineage independent of the Three Sacred Lands?"

Jiraiya charged toward a Sand Village ninja.

After knocking his opponent down with a single blow, he casually continued his conversation with Fukasaku.

Shima pondered for a moment and said, "If it's within the Land of Fire, the most likely place is the Fire Temple, but as far as I know, their Sage Mode lineage has been severed."

"It seems that someone has recreated the mysteries of the immortals from the secret techniques of the Fire Temple."
