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

As a confidant of the Third Tsuchikage, having witnessed the Tsuchikage use Dust Release, he naturally knew what this action signified.

He quickly turned around and shouted loudly to the crowd behind him:

"Everyone be careful!"

"Get out of the way!"

However, his reminder came far too late.

Suddenly, a cylindrical barrier formed between Wushou's hands and shot out towards the people below.

boom!

With a loud bang, the enthusiastic expressions on everyone's faces froze.

They looked incredulously toward the very center.

The nearly one hundred people who had gathered there had disappeared, replaced by a huge semi-circular pit.

This is...

This is the famous Dust Escape technique of Master Wu!

One second I was overjoyed to meet Wu Daren, and the next second I was filled with fear.

Only then did they realize that the respected Master Wu had been dead for many years.

Wu's move also demonstrated that he was an enemy, not a friend, to the people below him.

The moment the attack struck, the Jonin leading the team realized the reality.

He immediately organized everyone, forming attack formations, and began to attack the figure in the sky.

However, before those various ninjutsu could attack Wu, Wu in mid-air began to slowly dissipate from beneath his feet.

Just seconds later, his figure disappeared from everyone's sight.

"This is...

"The Dust-Free Enveloping Ninjutsu of an Incompetent..."

If the Jonin had any doubts about the identity of this Master Mu...

So after the opponent used Dust Escape and Dustless Confusion in succession, his doubts disappeared.

But...

Why would an adult attack them?

Before he could figure out the problem, the figure covered in bandages reappeared from the side.

Along with his figure appeared, so too did the cylindrical dust escape technique that had already solidified in his hand.

Boom! ~~~

With another huge explosion, a massive crater appeared in the crowd once again.

Like the people of Sunagakure, Iwagakure was also plunged into a bitter battle.

Not far from them, in a grove of trees in the valley, the team from Konoha also encountered their enemies.

Looking at the floating figure in front of her, Tsunade gritted her teeth and shouted in a low voice:

"Second Grandfather..."

The many Konoha ninja behind her also looked at her with strange eyes.

All of this was because standing in front of them were the familiar faces they had seen growing up in the village.

The respected Second Hokage—Tobirama Senju.

Looking at Tsunade standing in front of everyone, Tobirama Senju slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

He said in a mocking tone:

"Isn't that Tsunade?"

Hehe, long time no see...

Chapter 57 So you can't bring yourself to do it?

"Isn't that Tsunade?"

Hehe, long time no see!

Looking at the "second grandfather" who was greeting her, Tsunade's eyes turned cold.

Unlike other villages, this one was formed because of the information Kagura provided during the Danzo incident two years ago.

Tsunade and the others already knew that Tobirama Senju's body was being controlled by Madara Uchiha.

Therefore, they knew very well that the person standing in front of them was actually Uchiha Madara.

Knowing this was one thing, but when Tsunade actually saw her respected second grandfather standing in front of her, she still felt a complex mix of emotions.

Unlike Hashirama Senju, who died young, Tsunade actually has many more memories with her great-uncle Tobirama Senju.

Unlike the seemingly unreliable Hashirama, Tobirama Senju always appeared serious in front of others.

But only Tsunade knew that beneath that stern face lay a loving heart.

Although Tobirama Senju had his own set of principles, he actually cherished this rare peace more than anyone else.

It could even be said that without him, relying solely on Hashirama Senju's unreliable personality,

I doubt even Konoha could have developed to its current state.

So when they heard Madara Uchiha, using Tobirama Senju's body, say "It's been a long time."

An uncontrollable surge of anger welled up within Tsunade.

Although she knew that this was not Madara Uchiha's deliberate act of provoking her.

After all, as a meritorious figure in Konoha, Madara Uchiha had indeed seen himself as an infant, so his words "long time no see" were not wrong.

Even so, she still found it difficult to suppress the surging emotions within her.

Seeing Tsunade glaring at him, Tobirama Senju didn't take it to heart.

A slight smile played on his lips as his gaze swept over the crowd below.

Those whose gaze swept over him felt their hair stand on end, as if they were being watched by some ancient behemoth and felt a sense of fear.

After his appearance, Jiraiya and Orochimaru, who were on high alert, promptly warned him loudly:

"Attention everyone, be on high alert!"

The person in front of you is not Tobirama-sama, but a corpse controlled by Madara Uchiha.

Abandon those pointless emotions and prepare for battle at any time!

Hearing Jiraiya and Orochimaru's reminder, the people behind them also realized what was happening.

Yes, Lord Tobirama died long ago, and they even witnessed his burial.

What we face is merely an unknown enemy.

Thinking of this, they all drew their weapons.

The look in his eyes changed, from the bewilderment he had shown when he saw Tobirama to the unwavering determination he displayed when facing an enemy.

However, at that moment, another figure slowly emerged from beside Tobirama Senju.

Although he was wearing a black robe, everyone could still clearly see his appearance underneath.

Beneath the shadow of the black robe, a face wearing a huge breathing mask was revealed.

Those eyes, like those of a venomous snake, swept over the crowd in front of them with a sinister look.

This was precisely their target for this trip—Hanzo.

If Jiraiya and his companions still harbored some doubts when they saw Tobirama Senju appear,

But when Hanzo appeared dressed in Akatsuki attire, they had already fully understood all the causes and consequences.

After glancing back and forth between Hanzo and Tobirama Senju, it was Jiraiya who spoke first:

"I never imagined that the high and mighty Lord Uchiha Madara would actually cooperate with this Hanzo..."

Hearing these slightly sarcastic words, neither Hanzo nor Tobirama Senju uttered a single word of explanation.

Jiraiya may have misunderstood some details, but clearly neither of them wanted to make unnecessary explanations.

The cooperation with Hanzo is real and aligns with Madara Uchiha's plan.

Although Madara Uchiha needs time to achieve that perfect body.

For this reason, he even played a key role in facilitating the Ninja World War.

Logically, having succeeded in his plan, he should have disappeared without a trace.

His best course of action right now is to get away from everyone's attention and focus on developing properly.

But who exactly is Madara Uchiha?

While it's true that he needs to buy time, it doesn't mean he's willing to deliberately avoid the situation to do so.

Since Hanzo had set up a plan to bring these weak ninjas from the three great nations before him.

Madara Uchiha would naturally not mind making a move according to the deal.

After all, in his view, using the Ninja World War to annihilate the forces of various countries was one of his plans.

Since that's the case, then personally eliminating these people would also align with my goals.

Therefore, in Kagura's imagination, Madara Uchiha, who should have been hiding, appeared on the battlefield this time.

Moreover, he stood powerfully before the major powers, leading the "Six Paths" under his control.

Just as Jiraiya's lips twitched slightly, as if he wanted to say something more.

But then Hanzo spoke up impatiently from the side:

"Alright, that's enough of the small talk."

We never expected to encounter these people from Konoha.
