Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 337 What does it mean to be incomparably powerful? (!)

Uehara Naraku found a safe place.

Just as Kabuto Yakushi had prepared the body needed for Orochimaru's resurrection, Uehara Naraku finally received the arrival of Minato Namikaze and Obito Uchiha.

They brought Uehara Naraku the materials for the Impure World Reincarnation.

Now, everything is ready.

Uehara Naraku nervously rubbed his palms together, glanced at Namikaze Minato, and said, "Fourth Hokage, are you happy to reunite the previous Hokage today?"

"..."

What's so exciting?

Minato Namikaze was speechless.

What's there to be happy about in this kind of thing!

Seeing that the villain Uehara Naraku was getting stronger and stronger, accumulating more and more power, hiding his identity in the ninja world, and even rising to the top ranks of the Allied Shinobi Forces, how could Minato Namikaze possibly be happy!

Now we're about to see Uehara Naraku resurrect the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama. If Namikaze Minato could control himself, he would definitely want to desperately kill this menace, Uehara Naraku…

Unfortunately, Minato Namikaze could only watch helplessly as all of this happened.

"Let me take a look..."

Uehara Naraku raised his palm and then slammed it onto the ground!

The next moment, incantations began to spread across the ground, instantly enveloping the cells of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and the White Zetsu sacrifice!

The cells of the First Hokage turned into countless dust fragments, which enveloped the cursing White Zetsu, and then a figure was revealed!

It was none other than the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju!

Uehara Naraku watched as Hashirama Senju's figure gradually solidified, his expression finally turning serious: "Let me see just how powerful the legendary God of Shinobi, Hashirama Senju, truly is!"

No sooner had Uehara Naraku finished speaking than Senju Hashirama had already completed his Impure World Reincarnation. Just when everyone thought a powerful surge of chakra was about to erupt, they saw the First Hokage simply raise his head slowly.

Hashirama Senju glanced at the three people present, tilted his head, and asked with a slight look of confusion, "May I ask who you are...?"

"We've met before."

Uehara Naraku extended his hand in a friendly manner and said softly, "We should have met once during the Chunin Exams, First Hokage? Have you forgotten? Perhaps you had already lost your self-awareness at that time?"

At that time, Orochimaru was still manipulating the First and Second Hokage to attack the Third Hokage, but Uehara Naraku acted first. However, it seems that the First and Second Hokage's consciousness was erased, so he doesn't remember now?

"No, I remember now."

Hashirama Senju nodded, a grim expression on his face: "I remember you killed that monkey, but you seem quite different now!"

"Yeah?"

Uehara Naraku touched his face, nodded, and said, "After all, several years have passed, and I've grown up. Aren't I much more handsome than before?"

"Hmm, it's alright!"

Hashirama Senju stroked his chin, looked Uehara Naraku up and down, and nodded, saying, "Your appearance isn't much worse than Madara's..."

"..."

Uehara Naraku's eye twitched. So, in the eyes of this First Hokage, Madara Uchiha was still the most handsome!

Hashirama Senju's gaze swept over Minato Namikaze behind Naraku Uehara, and upon seeing the whirlpool headband on his head, he suddenly spoke up: "What's going on here? Aren't you an enemy of Konoha? How come you're with our Konoha ninja?"

Hashirama Senju stroked his chin again, then looked at Minato Namikaze and shouted, "Hey, kid, who are you?"

"Lord Shodaime."

Minato Namikaze nodded respectfully, revealing the words on the back of his divine robe, and said, "I am Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage of Konoha."

"The Yondaime?"

Hashirama Senju's expression darkened: "So, if that's the case, after this brat killed the monkey, you became the Fourth Hokage of the village? But it seems you were also resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique..."

It's only been a few years!

How come another Hokage of Konoha has been killed?!

"The matter is rather complicated..."

Minato Namikaze spread his palms out, sighed, and said, "In short, I'm already dead, and I died before the Third Hokage..."

"yes."

Uehara Naraku shook his head and sighed softly, "Moreover, the Fourth Hokage was killed on the orders of the Third Hokage... because the Third Hokage wanted to occupy the ruling position of Konoha for a long time."

"Don't talk nonsense..."

Minato Namikaze quickly interrupted Naraku Uehara, then glanced at Obito Uchiha beside him and said softly, "I've spoken with Obito privately, and the Third Hokage didn't do that kind of thing..."

"It doesn't matter."

Uehara Naraku waved his hand and shouted, "Don't even think about it. In this ninja world, the Third Hokage can't be redeemed. Your son probably still hates him!"

Minato Namikaze's eyes twitched as he looked at Naraku Uehara and said, "Isn't all of this because of your behind-the-scenes manipulation...? The truth will come out sooner or later!"

"But what will happen when the truth comes out..."

Uehara Naraku slowly raised his hands, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said, "They no longer have the power to resist me!"

Just as Uehara Naraku was about to say something more, Senju Hashirama, who was standing behind him, suddenly unleashed a powerful burst of chakra!

The next moment, Hashirama Senju's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and kicked Uehara Naraku's head in mid-air!

This First Hokage…

How can you be so uncivilized!

pat!

Uehara Naraku hurriedly raised his arm to block the attack!

"Wow, that's incredibly strong!"

Uehara Naraku felt the force bearing down on his arm and subconsciously looked at Senju Hashirama: "Just a casual strike, and it's a ninjutsu technique comparable to monstrous strength? But attacking me like this, isn't it a bit unreasonable?"

Uehara Naraku curled the corner of his mouth into a smile and flicked his hand away from Senju Hashirama's body: "First Hokage, I'm a good person, you know..."

"I already know you are an enemy of Konoha!"

Hashirama Senju unleashed a barrage of attacks on Naraku Uehara, saying in a deep voice, "This is enough! I will never let any enemy who harms Konoha escape!"

Bang!

Both of them simultaneously raised their legs and kicked out!

A shockwave from the impact rose up on the ground!

"You really can't underestimate young people these days!"

Hashirama Senju glanced at Naraku Uehara with surprise, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes: "I must say, in terms of taijutsu alone, you are even comparable to Madara!"

"He keeps talking about Uchiha Madara..."

Uehara Naraku sighed, then suddenly hooked his foot around Senju Hashirama's leg, saying casually, "After we're done fighting, I'll send you to keep Uchiha Madara company..."

Uehara Naraku followed up with an elbow strike, his elbow slamming directly into Senju Hashirama's chest. The First Hokage was finally sent flying by Uehara Naraku's powerful blow!

"Regarding single-target spells..."

Uehara Naraku straightened up and looked at Senju Hashirama, who was flying backward in the distance: "Aside from the Eight Gates technique, I have never seen anyone with the First Hokage's taijutsu skills, and he is even superior in technique!"

In addition to his enormous chakra reserves, Hashirama Senju also possessed the physical attributes of a Sage, which made his strength and speed astonishing!

What's even more amazing is Hashirama Senju's fighting skills!

This ninja, who lived through the Warring States period, could kill with every single strike he unleashed in battle!

With his massive chakra reserves and powerful physique, Hashirama Senju could unleash his full potential in ninjutsu and taijutsu without restraint!

To be honest, the Third Raikage, who has always been hailed as having the strongest ninjutsu and taijutsu in the ninja world, seems rather unworthy of carrying the shoes of the First Hokage…

This first generation leader was just too strong!

Furthermore, Hashirama Senju was actually weakened after being resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique; his strength was significantly reduced by the technique. The immortality granted by the Impure World Reincarnation technique was of no consequence to Hashirama Senju.

Because he himself possesses the body of an immortal!

"Your physical skills are truly not to be underestimated!"

Hashirama Senju slowly walked over, his wooden clogs rustling on the ground. His gaze gradually turned serious: "Your fighting skills are not much worse than Madara's, and your strength may even be superior..."

Hashirama Senju clasped his hands together, looked at Naraku Uehara, and said, "But you actually stopped attacking just now? Wasn't that a bit too arrogant? In our time, we would stop at nothing to achieve victory!"

"No, it's not arrogance."

Uehara Naraku smiled and raised his finger.

Uehara Naraku's will instantly descended upon Senju Hashirama, controlling his actions and causing the First Hokage's expression to change!

"Oh, I see!"

Hashirama Senju's expression gradually calmed down, and he slowly nodded, sighing, "So you thought you could control me, which is why you didn't care about winning or losing?"

The next moment, Hashirama Senju's chakra suddenly erupted!

A surge of chakra energy was so heavy it was almost suffocating!

This is the ninja god who once suppressed the entire ninja world, the strongest person of that era, and the one who pacified the chaotic world!

Simply by exuding his aura, he instilled fear in others!

Even Uehara Naraku showed a hint of surprise on his face. Had he ultimately underestimated the power of this ninja god?

Hashirama Senju's chakra level definitely exceeded 500,000, or even more. This is equivalent to the chakra of Naruto Uzumaki plus half of the Nine-Tails!

"It seems a bit difficult to obliterate your consciousness with power! But the First Generation Lord won't be able to escape my control either..."

Uehara Naraku raised his finger, and under the control of the Impure World Reincarnation, even if Senju Hashirama unleashed his chakra, he could not break free from Uehara's control.

Hashirama Senju stood still and slowly nodded, praising, "That's truly impressive. I didn't expect your chakra to be so abundant, even more abundant than Madara's... So, can you continue to control it now?"

The next moment, Hashirama Senju clenched his hands tightly, and a black glint suddenly appeared in his eye sockets. In that instant, he entered Sage Mode!

"Sage Mode - Activated!"

Two shouts rang out simultaneously!

Just as Hashirama Senju was trying to break free from Naraku Uehara's control using Sage Mode, he suddenly saw Naraku Uehara on the other side also unfurl three enormous wings!

A tremendous aura swept over the surroundings!

Both Obito Uchiha and Minato Namikaze were forced to retreat to the side!

Uehara Naraku's wings fluttered slightly, lifting him up. At this moment, he was like a true angel, but instead of bringing kindness and justice, he brought power and danger!

Uehara Naraku looked at Senju Hashirama, who had also entered Sage Mode, and slowly extended his hand, clenching it into a powerful fist!

"To be honest..."

Uehara Naraku's expression calmed down, and his voice gradually became somewhat ethereal: "I have never felt so clearly...an unparalleled power!"
