Naruto: By lying low and hiding, he eventually became the leader of the Legendary Sannin.

Yes, this is a lose-lose situation.

At such close range, Kagura would also suffer damage from the Tailed Beast Ball explosion.

With this attack, the enormous two-tailed creature that had materialized on the field gradually faded and disappeared.

The two revealed their true forms at the same time.

Kagura smiled as she looked at the two Kenichis who were filled with resentment.

Compared to the enemy who was spitting blood, Kagura's appearance was not so terrible.

Firstly, he was ultimately the attacker, and the explosion was relatively far away from him.

Secondly, unlike the two Kenichis who were dressed in "white", he was wearing a purple Susanoo.

In terms of defensive capabilities, he is clearly much stronger.

Just as the two were struggling to their feet, an unfamiliar voice came from above them.

"It seems we've arrived at just the right time."

The two immediately looked in the direction from which the sound came, but when they saw the person's true face, Kagura's face showed fear for the first time.

"How could it be him!"

Chapter 44 Six Paths

"Looks like we've arrived just in time!"

Kagura and Kenichi Nii looked toward the sound.

The speaker had silver hair, wore an iron headband resembling a face shield, and had three red marks on his cheeks.

He wore a black, tight-fitting combat suit with blue layered armor on the outside, and white down collars that extended to his back on both shoulders.

Kagura recognized this person. Although he was very young when he met him, he would never forget his appearance.

In fact, anyone from Konoha would feel a sense of familiarity with this person's appearance.

After all, this person's face was engraved on the Hokage Wall in Konoha Village, and was admired by the people of Konoha day and night.

This person was none other than the legendary master of forbidden books, known as "Sea Release," and the Second Hokage—Tobirama Senju!

When Kagura saw the face of the person in front of her, even her expression changed drastically, and her heart skipped a beat.

After all, no matter who it is, if someone who has been dead for many years suddenly appears in front of you, you would probably have a similar reaction.

But Kagura was someone who had seen a lot, and he forced himself to calm down in the next second.

When he looked up again and took a closer look, he finally noticed some different details.

The most striking feature is the eyes of Tobirama Senju.

Those distinctive eyes, composed of black and blue rings, are the Rinnegan!

After seeing those eyes clearly, Kagura instantly understood many things.

Sure enough, there were small black iron rods on Tobirama Senju's face and ears.

This is...

This is the Six Paths of Pain, which can only be used by those with the Rinnegan!

However, perhaps it would be more appropriate to call him Madara Rokudo at this time.

Even after Kagura figured all this out, the tension on his face didn't ease at all.

Because if everything is as he guessed, then it proves one thing.

The person before them was not Tobirama Senju, but the far more terrifying Madara Uchiha.

The two Kenichis on the other side also clearly recognized Tobirama Senju's appearance.

Even if they were hostile forces, they had at least read the historical records of various countries.

He opened his eyes wide, and said in disbelief:

"Tobirama Senju, the Second Hokage?"

Are you saying that all of this was just a fake death?

No, that's impossible. There were witnesses from other countries when you were buried.

who are you? "

Faced with his questioning, Tobirama Senju, or rather Madara Uchiha, did not pay much attention.

He glanced at it with a slight frown, then said:

"Noisy!"

Just as the two Kenichi were about to say something again, a white branch suddenly emerged from the ground.

The white, withered tree branch, like a sharp blade, pierced straight into his body.

As his screams rang out, the withered branch rapidly grew inside his body and emerged from his body.

Finally, at the very top of that branch, a white humanoid creature emerged.

He looked at the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, who had already lost the ability to move, and laughed:

"Very good, the Two-Tailed Beast belongs to us now."

At this moment, Tsuchishiro, who had finally arrived from afar, saw the scene before him and couldn't help but want to rush over to rescue his companion.

However, just as he passed by Kagura, she grabbed his sleeve.

He angrily turned to look at Kagura, only to see her shake her head at him.

Seeing this, he seemed to understand something, but still gritted his teeth and asked Kagura:

"Who exactly are those people?"

Why is your Second Hokage here?!

Hearing Tsuchishiro's question, Kagura felt a bitter taste in her mouth.

If he could, he would also like to ask why the Second Hokage's body was taken away by Madara Uchiha and turned into the Six Paths.

That's the corpse of a Hokage, after all; he was your former leader.

Even if they don't assign someone to guard the body, they should at least protect the burial site, right?

How could they be so easily poached by the enemy?!

Just as he was mentally ranting, Tobirama Senju, who had been floating in the air, finally spoke again:

You seem to...

Do you know who I am?

Kagura was startled, but she maintained a calm expression and did not answer his question.

Although Kagura remained silent, how could his previous expression have escaped Madara Uchiha's eyes?

He witnessed the entire series of changes in him, from initial shock to confusion to realization to calmness.

"Interesting, you seem to be hiding quite a few secrets."

And that tailed beast power from just now...

Perhaps I really should have listened to Afei's advice and taken you away.

As soon as these words were spoken, a dangerous aura of chakra suddenly emanated from "Tobirama Senju" in front of him.

Kagura, who remained vigilant, immediately took the corresponding defensive actions, her eyes fixed intently on the enemy in front of her.

At that moment, the two Kenichis, who had been seriously injured, suddenly appeared behind Tobirama.

However, at this moment, half of his face was covered by A-Fei's white mask, indicating that he had been completely controlled by A-Fei.

He said excitedly:

“Master, I told you, there’s something strange about this kid.”

Let's take him with us while we have this opportunity.

After the battle just now, he doesn't seem to have much fighting strength left.

However, Tobirama ignored him, his eerie Rinnegan fixed on Kagura below.

Just as the atmosphere in the room was becoming increasingly tense, he suddenly shook his head.

He glanced at Kagura with a meaningful look and said:

"I don't know why, but my intuition tells me..."

Even now, as I fight you in this Tobirama body with the Rinnegan, I don't seem to have a 100% chance of defeating you.

"You seem to be hiding some unknown strength?"

Kagura was not happy about Madara Uchiha's praise. On the contrary, he felt as if his whole being was seen through by Madara's Rinnegan.

All my secrets seemed impossible to hide from this person; they were laid bare and exposed to the sunlight.

Looking at Kagura, who was covered in sweat, Tobirama smiled slightly, then suddenly turned to Tobi beside him and said:

"Let's go, but don't forget our main objective."

My understanding of the Six Paths is still far from complete; today is not a good opportunity.

Hearing his words, Ah Fei, though reluctant, obediently followed him away.

With a gust of wind, the two figures disappeared from Kagura and Tsuchishiro's sight.

After they had completely left, Kagura and Tsuchishiro finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood on the ground, breathing heavily.

After a moment, Tsuchishiro tentatively looked at Kagura and asked:

"So, that was Uchiha Madara?"

He was present during the Chunin Exams in the Land of Water, so he naturally knew that Madara Uchiha was not dead.

Considering the actions of the so-called "Akatsuki" organization over the years, he could easily guess some connections.

However, Kagura did not answer him directly, but simply said indifferently:
