Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

"Madara, stop!" Tobirama Senju looked at Madara: "Don't go astray again!"

Before the words were finished, the Nine-Tailed Fox suddenly let out a deafening roar, the sound waves causing the ground to crack.

"A wrong path?" Madara's laughter, mixed with the roar of the tailed beast, was full of mockery: "This is the only path. Look at your proud Konoha, how fragile it appears in the face of absolute power."

He raised his hand and waved it, and a huge Tailed Beast Ball condensed in the air, its eerie red light reflecting the despair on everyone's faces.

"And you, Tobirama Senju, will also witness the end of Konoha here!"

Tobirama Senju swallowed hard. "Brother, where are you?"

Being late is one thing, but now Konoha is on the verge of destruction.

It would be too much if they didn't show up soon.

In the distance, Lian Ye saw the Tailed Beast Ball in the Nine-Tails' mouth and her whole body went numb.

"What a joke!"

If that Tailed Beast Ball were to fall, the entire Hidden Leaf Village would be doomed.

If he had known it would be this dangerous, he would have gone out on the mission...

At this moment, a majestic voice sounded.

"Ban, stop!"

Upon hearing this voice, Lian Ye immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Uncle Hashirama has finally arrived.

Chapter Forty-Six: The Battle of the Valley of the End

Hashirama Senju rode a wooden dragon in the air, gazing at Madara from afar.

"Madara, stop." Hashirama said tenderly, "Do you really want to destroy the village we built together?"

Madara Uchiha remained calm. "Hashirama, your concept of peace is wrong. I do not agree with it."

As it spoke, the Tailed Beast Ball that had been gathering in the Nine-Tails' mouth suddenly shot out.

Hashirama Senju's pupils contracted; he hadn't expected Madara to actually do it!

He really wants to destroy Konoha!

Hashirama clapped his hands together, and the Wood Release vines stretched out behind him to form a huge barrier, blocking the impact of the Tailed Beast Ball.

In the rush to defend against the Tailed Beast Ball, even Hashirama Senju was somewhat overwhelmed.

Sweat beaded on his forehead as he looked at his former friend in disbelief. "Ban, why did you do this...?"

"Hashirama, you're still the same as ever, always wishful thinking." Madara Uchiha's gaze was as calm as still water.

He came to fight this time with the determination to die, so naturally he wouldn't be swayed by Hashirama's talk-no-jutsu.

"If you want to persuade me, you should give up!" Madara Uchiha looked at Hashirama with a mocking expression. "We are no longer from the same world."

"Brother, stop being so wishy-washy!" Tobirama Senju said.

Madara wants to destroy Konoha.

Why is my brother still wasting his breath talking to him?

"I understand..." Hashirama murmured softly.

Ban had already embarked on a path of no return, and his attempts to persuade him were futile.

Hashirama's gaze was resolute as he stared directly at Madara's crimson Sharingan, his voice low yet carrying immense weight:

"I will not allow anyone to destroy the village, not even you!"

Before the words were finished, countless thick wooden stakes burst from the ground and surged towards Madara and Kurama.

"Hashirama!"

"spot!"

An earth-shattering battle is about to break out.

Hashirama knew that Konoha could not withstand the devastation of the aftermath of this battle.

He leaped up suddenly, and Wood Release chakra condensed into a huge lotus platform beneath his feet, using Wood Release to block the Nine-Tails' attack.

"Ban! Come at me if you dare!"

Madara Uchiha was aware of Hashirama's ulterior motives, but he didn't mind.

The battle between the two gradually moved away from Konoha Village.

Renya watched the battle between Hashirama and Madara, speechless with shock.

Is this really a power that humans can possess?

He even felt that even if he awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan in the future, he would still not be a match for Madara Uchiha.

Unless he finds age spots covered in oxygen tubes thirty or forty years from now.

After all, at that time, Madara Uchiha could only rely on the Gedo Mazo to prolong his life, and he even walked with a limp.

Lian Ye could easily manipulate an elderly person.

However, he was just thinking about it; how easy would it be to find where Madara was hiding?

Lianye felt somewhat helpless.

Perhaps that was his only chance in his life to defeat Madara...

Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha had disappeared.

But the deafening sounds of battle still echoed in the distance.

Renya knew that this battle would end with Hashirama Senju winning and Madara Uchiha faking his death to escape.

After this battle, he won't have much time left to develop...

The sounds of battle in the distance continued all night.

The sound gradually faded away by dawn.

Everyone knew that the fight between the two was over.

They began to worry: who would be the ultimate victor?

"Lord Hokage, you must win!"

The villagers couldn't imagine what they would do if Hashirama Senju lost.

Tobirama Senju led the Konoha ninja to the location of the battle.

He originally wanted to go up and help, but his older brother sternly refused.

Hashirama did not want anyone to disturb his battle with Madara.

Only after the sounds of battle subsided did Tobirama Senju lead his men to the location.

If the eldest brother wins, then everything will be fine.

If they win, they will take action to eliminate the enemy.

--------

Valley of the End.

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju stood facing each other.

After a night of fighting, the two were exhausted, their armor tattered and worn.

Madara Uchiha didn't even have the chakra to activate his Sharingan.

The two charged at each other.

The weapons clashed, and Hashirama fell to the ground.

Madara Uchiha turned around, looked at Hashirama on the ground, and said softly, "It's me standing here, the opposite of back then."

His thoughts drifted back to the time when he was defeated by Hashirama.

If he had won back then, Konoha Village would never have been established.

It was because of Madara's defeat that he was persuaded by Hashirama to form an alliance and establish Konoha Village together...

Hashirama Senju knelt on the ground, his voice low and deep: "I want to protect the dream that has just been realized... I will never let you destroy the village."

Madara Uchiha scoffed, "Hashirama, you're nothing but a loser now. Wait for me..."

Before he could finish speaking, Hashirama suddenly appeared behind Madara and pierced his left chest with a sword.

Ban looked down in disbelief at the blade piercing his chest.

He then realized that the Hashirama from before was just a Wood Release clone.

"I was attacked from behind..." Madara murmured.

"I must protect us... no, my village!" Hashirama said solemnly. "No matter what happens, protecting the village will protect everything."

I firmly believe that anyone who harms the village—whether they are my friends, brothers, or children—will not be forgiven!

"You've changed, Hashirama."

Ban's body went limp, and he knelt on the ground. "Initially, you established the village to protect your family and friends."

But now, to protect the village, you're willing to kill your friends and family... Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?

After saying this, Ban slowly collapsed to the ground.

Hashirama stared at Madara's corpse and fell silent.

If he could, he really wouldn't want to kill his former friend.

But there was no way around it; Madara's actions had already crossed a line.

In his view, the safety of the village was paramount.

He sat beside Madara's body and said softly, "Madara, I have been trying to ease the conflict between the Senju and Uchiha."

Hashirama smiled. "I even had Tobirama adopt one of your Uchiha children."

"I want Tobirama to gradually overcome his prejudice against the Uchiha clan through his interactions with that child..."

I originally thought that Ban had just left in a fit of pique and would return to the village soon.

He wanted to wait for Madara to come back so he could tell him about it and give him a surprise.

I never expected it to end like this...

"Farewell, Madara..."

At this moment, Tobirama Senju arrived with a large number of ninjas.

When they saw that Hashirama had won, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother, are you alright?" Tobirama Senju asked with concern.

Hashirama shook his head and struggled to his feet.

Tobirama, I'm fine.

Tobirama's gaze fell on Madara's corpse, his eyes filled with greed.

Madara possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan.

If he could unlock the secret of the kaleidoscope...

Hashirama seemed to have seen through Tobirama's thoughts and said sternly, "Tobirama, I advise you not to mess with Madara, or I'll get angry!"

He would not allow anyone to desecrate his friend's body.

"I understand, brother..."

In the end, Tobirama hid Madara's body deep in the mountains of Konoha.

--------

Deep in the mountains.

Madara Uchiha, lying in the coffin, suddenly opened his eyes.
