The demon monk in the second dimension

A Jonin gave instructions while directing the ninjas around him.

"Kill the caster! Follow me!"

More than a dozen Mist Ninjas, their eyes filled with anger and killing intent, dodged the wooden dragon and charged toward Xia Zhi, who was standing on the wooden figure.

Under Xia Zhi's control, four hands grew from the wooden doll, each with its five fingers spread out, aimed at the Mist Ninja.

"Wood Release: Piercing Wood Burst!"

Whoosh whoosh!

From the wooden figure's palm, numerous wooden spears resembling thorns shot out like bullets, incredibly fast and over a wide area.

Although the Mist Ninjas charging towards Xia Zhi reacted, they had no chance to dodge.

"what!"

Under a barrage of sharp, pear-blossom-like wooden spikes, the Mist Ninja were pierced like hedgehogs and fell on their way to victory.

Then, Xia Zhi stretched out her right hand and pressed down on the wooden dragon that was constantly charging back and forth in the Mist Ninja team.

The wooden dragon suddenly soared into the air, several meters above the ground, and then exploded with a bang!

"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Explosion!"

The wooden dragon exploded into millions of pieces, each fragment flying through the mist like shrapnel, causing hundreds of massive casualties.

Several Jonin were targeted and killed by Xia Zhi, all dying in the area-of-effect attack.

The Mist Ninja were terrified at losing their leader.

At this moment, Xia Zhi had the wooden puppet spread out the corpses of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist so that the Mist Ninja could see them clearly.

"The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are dead! Go back and tell the Mizukage to remember to bring his men to the Five Kage Summit! Otherwise, I, Madara Uchiha, will raze Kirigakure to the ground!"

"Uchiha Madara?"

Upon hearing this name, the Mist Ninja who had escaped with their lives were filled with terror and looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Isn't it Hashirama Senju?"

Don't think these ninjas are uneducated!

Wood Release is clearly the signature move of the God of Shinobi!

But now, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are gone, and most of the Jonin are dead. The Kirigakure forces, facing an enemy they cannot resist, have fled back to the Land of Water.

Xia Zhi followed Uchiha Shisui to the Konoha camp.

Xia Zhi never expected that she would see a "celebrity" as soon as she entered the camp.

It was a child with the Uchiha Flame Clan crest on his back, only a little over a meter tall, and his face was very similar to Xia Zhi's.

Looking at the child, Xia Zhi asked Uchiha Shisui, who was standing beside her.

Who is this child? How old is he?

Before Uchiha Shisui could answer, his father, Uchiha Fugaku, spoke first.

"This is my son, Uchiha Itachi, who is four years old this year."

"Only four years old? Such a young Uchiha on the battlefield is practically the same as the era of war!"

Xia Zhi's expression grew increasingly cold as she scolded him with exasperation.

"Hashirama, is this what you wanted to see? Seeking peace through peace only to end in war, and seeking peace through war only to end in peace! You're just being a woman with a soft heart!"

"Seeking peace through peace leads to war, and seeking peace through war leads to peace..."

This sentence made both Fugaku and Shisui Uchiha's eyes light up, and they pondered it carefully.

Even at a young age, Itachi Uchiha seemed to be somewhat moved.

Fugaku Uchiha, who was just one more war merit away from becoming the head of the Uchiha clan, asked Shisui Uchiha.

"Who is this?"

He had never seen the other person in the clan.

"Seeing the Uchiha Homura fan on my back, you still can't guess my name?"

Xia Zhi stared at Uchiha Fugaku, whose Rinnegan sent chills down his spine, before speaking with displeasure.

"I am Uchiha Madara."

"Uchiha...Madara?!"

For a moment, Fugaku Uchiha thought he had misheard.

He turned his head in disbelief to look at Uchiha Shisui, who had come with Xia Zhi.

This is mainly because Xia Zhi's eyes are the Rinnegan.

If it's the Mangekyou Sharingan, then the credibility will be much higher.

"A bunch of idiots. Susanoo!"

Xia Zhi crossed her arms and summoned a giant skeleton armor on the spot.

Looking at this materialized armored giant made of chakra, any Uchiha who knew anything about Susanoo knew that only the owner of the Mangekyou Sharingan could summon it.

"Could it really be Grandpa Ban?"

Fugaku Uchiha was completely stunned.

According to seniority, Uchiha Madara was his grandfather's elder brother, so he should be addressed as Uncle Madara.

If you have a close relationship, you can just call him Grandpa Ban.

Looking at the equally bewildered Uchiha around him, as well as the other ninjas who had rushed over because of Susanoo, Xia Zhi put away Susanoo.

"The war is over, let's go to Konoha."

"Konoha?"

Upon hearing Xia Zhi's words, Fugaku Uchiha's expression changed once again.

What is Madara going to do in Konoha?

Does he want to become Hokage?

……

At the same time, Hiruzen Sarutobi also received a secret report from Torifu Akimichi.

He jumped up from his chair halfway through reading the letter.

"Uchiha Madara is still alive?! He summoned a Susanoo as tall as a mountain, killed the Fourth Kazekage, and crushed the Sand Ninja forces?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was not happy at all about the end of the war between Konoha and Sunagakure; on the contrary, he had a terrible headache.

"Oh no! This is terrible!"

They, Tobirama Senju's disciples, knew very well just how strong Madara Uchiha was.

That's the power that one person could destroy an entire village!

Apart from Hashirama Senju, no one could resist his power.

I thought he had been killed by the First Hokage, but I didn't expect him to be alive.

Chapter 361 Finally Arriving in Konoha

"According to the wind's interpretation, Madara Uchiha not only didn't die, but he also retains his youthful appearance and strength, and even possesses the legendary eyes of the Sage of Six Paths. Having concealed his identity for over thirty years, what is Madara Uchiha planning to do now that he has reappeared?"

He ordered the Anbu to urgently recall Jiraiya and Orochimaru, and also summoned three old friends—Shimura Danzo, Utatane Koharu, and Mitokado Homura—to discuss the matter.

Not long after, the three appeared in the Hokage's office.

Danzo Shimura, who lost his arm and eye in the Second Shinobi World War, walked over leaning on a cane.

After Danzo was seriously injured, he was entrusted with the "Root" of Konoha by Hiruzen Sarutobi, who became the Hokage.

Perhaps because he often dealt with dirty things, Danzo, who was originally somewhat sunny, became completely dark in personality.

He spoke to the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, with a cold expression.

"Sarutobi, what's the matter that you're in such a hurry to see us? Has something happened at the front?"

"You see."

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a puff of his cigarette and handed the secret report that Akimichi Torifu had sent to the group.

"A secret report about gathering wind?"

The group recognized their old friend's handwriting at a glance.

Before long, Mitokado Homura, just like Sarutobi Hiruzen, jumped up excitedly.

"Uchiha Madara?"

"Are you sure you didn't see it wrong, Feng?"

Although Shimura Danzo's eyes were also severely shaken, he did not lose his composure.

He let out a long breath and spoke.

"As expected! The teacher was right, Uchiha Madara is still alive!"

"The first master who may have suppressed him has indeed passed away."

The entire Hokage's office was filled with smoke due to Hiruzen Sarutobi's air pollution.

By this time, he had driven away all the Anbu. Hiruzen Sarutobi asked Danzo.

"I don't need to elaborate on how terrifying Madara Uchiha is; everyone knows. Danzo, how's your research on the Impure World Reincarnation technique coming along?"

Upon hearing this, Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado were surprised again.

During the First Shinobi World War, Konoha Village was besieged by the other four great nations.

It was through the Impure World Reincarnation technique that the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, summoned a large number of the dead, which enabled him to defeat the other four great nations that had deployed their tailed beasts and win the war.

But after Tobirama Senju's death, no one was able to perform this forbidden technique again.

Unexpectedly, Hiruzen Sarutobi allowed Danzo to practice in secret.

When Hiruzen Sarutobi brought this up, Danzo's eyes darkened even more.

"The technique created by the teacher was too profound, and his departure was too sudden. He never taught me this technique, so there are many parts that I don't understand."

"That's it..."

Seeing that Danzo didn't seem to be lying, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed.

If they had the Impure World Reincarnation technique, they could disturb the First and Second Hokage in the Netherworld and use their power to fight against Madara Uchiha.

Even though their strength is not as great as it was in life after being resurrected by Edo Tensei, they still possess immortality.

With the addition of these younger generations, they should be able to put up a fight against Uchiha Madara.

They all knew about Madara Uchiha's strength.

That's completely different from a "Shadow," an overwhelming power that allows a single person to easily defeat a Tailed Beast head-on.

After a moment of silence, Danzo spoke again.

"Now we must be wary of the Uchiha clan! The Senju clan has vanished and merged into the village. If Madara Uchiha returns to Konoha and unites the Uchiha clan, once known as the 'Number One Clan of Konoha,' the village will be in for a major upheaval!"

Mitokado Yan said helplessly.

"It's wartime now, and most of the Uchiha clan's elite have been sent out. Many of them probably already know that Madara Uchiha has returned. It's too late for us to do anything."

"We should also take into account the opinions of other ninja clans."

Koharu, turning over in her room, rubbed her temples, sensing something was wrong.

"Konoha has been established for over forty years, but there are still elders among the various ninja clans who experienced the era of war and witnessed the immense power of Uchiha Madara. Now that Uchiha Madara has returned, it is really difficult to ascertain the thoughts of the other ninja clans."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes were filled with worry.

"So we can only passively wait for Madara Uchiha to arrive? Torifu said that Madara Uchiha might first quell the Third Shinobi World War and then return to Konoha. By then, his prestige will reach an astonishing level."

"Then be prepared for mutual destruction!"

Danzo's eyes revealed a hint of madness.
