Chapter 465: Chapter 465: True Several Thousand Hands

Chapter 465: True Several Thousand Hands

Good news: three of the Five Kage remained.

Bad news: the three who remained were not easy to deal with.

In fact, their stubbornness was far more troublesome than Rasa and Mei. The only good thing was that after an entire afternoon of fighting, the chakra within the three Kage had likely been greatly depleted.

Kenichi took a breath.

After such a long battle, even he felt a little irritated.

These Kage were like cockroaches, one after another. Just dealing with Rasa and Mei had taken Kenichi some time to plan.

But now, it was time to end the battle in one move.

Kenichi took a deep breath, and immense chakra gathered around him.

”Oh? Wood Release? Sage Art? Are you planning to use True Several Thousand Hands?”

A strange voice suddenly broke the tense atmosphere of the battlefield.

Kenichi, Nagato, and the three surviving Kage all looked over at the same time.

On a nearby treetop, a man with black hair and dark red armor stood there.

A strange fan was strapped to his back.

Kenichi’s pupils contracted.

How could Uchiha Madara be here?

From his appearance, Kenichi knew that Madara was in an Edo Tensei state.

Although Kenichi had known he might eventually face Edo Tensei Madara after Obito and Black Zetsu attacked Konoha and obtained the forbidden jutsu scroll, he had not expected Madara to appear here so early.

Could it be that I pushed Obito too hard?

Kenichi considered that possibility, and his expression turned grim.

It was not as if he had never considered nipping the problem in the bud to avoid a future disaster.

But every time he tried to kill Obito, unexpected incidents would always appear and ruin his plan.

His previous plan had almost succeeded.

The thermobaric bomb had destroyed Obito’s body.

But who knew Obito had hidden an Izanagi, instantly rendering all of Kenichi’s preparations useless?

The most recent opportunity had been when Obito attacked the capital of the Land of Flame.

Kenichi had prepared to kill him, but who knew Jiraiya would interfere again?

Otherwise, the ninjutsu he had used on Jiraiya had originally been intended for Obito.

The result was that Obito escaped, and Kenichi missed another chance to kill him.

Now, Obito was not here, but an even more troublesome individual had arrived.

Uchiha Madara.

Kenichi had some understanding of Madara’s strength.

He could be said to possess the combat power to rule a country alone.

If Madara had not been deceived by Black Zetsu into carrying out the Eye of the Moon Plan, then Madara could have long ago occupied countries like the Land of Water and the Land of Lightning and declared himself Kage.

In the final battle, Madara could also be said to have suppressed Naruto and Sasuke.

Kishimoto probably felt that Madara was too strong, and that defeating him required a suitable reason. But it was difficult to create one naturally, so he forcefully had Black Zetsu launch a sneak attack, killing Madara and introducing Kaguya Otsutsuki as the final boss.

”Uchiha Madara...”

Onoki’s pupils trembled.

As the oldest of the Five Kage, he had naturally witnessed the combat power of the two former strongest ninja in the Shinobi World.

It was precisely because he had witnessed it that Onoki had always been so wary of Konoha.

Konoha, that village, once truly had the potential to eliminate every other Ninja Village and become the master of the entire Shinobi World.

Thankfully, Madara and Hashirama later developed differences. After their battle, Madara died in combat, and Hashirama did not live much longer either.

Otherwise...

Onoki shuddered just thinking about it.

But the most important thing he needed to understand right now was whether this Uchiha Madara before him was an enemy or...

”Edo Tensei?! You actually used Edo Tensei on Uchiha Madara!”

Tsunade looked at Kenichi with shock and anger, roaring furiously.

She immediately recognized Madara’s current state.

Only Edo Tensei would appear like this.

Since Madara had been resurrected with Edo Tensei, then what about her grandfather, Hashirama?

”So he’s an enemy then?”

The irritable Raikage, A, could no longer listen.

He had just noticed the mushroom cloud rising from the direction of Kumogakure and the huge roar that followed.

That made A only want to rush back immediately and see what state his village was in.

So A directly sprinted out, bringing Lightning Release with him as he charged toward Madara, who stood not far away, with Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

”Lightning Release, huh?”

Madara casually tilted his head, dodging A’s attack.

He even had the leisure to tap A’s back with his foot.

At the same time, he waved the Gunbai in his hand.

Without any visible exertion, A was slammed directly into the ground by the fan, creating a crater.

”Deal with Uchiha Madara with full power! He’s a monster!”

Onoki floated up and formed hand seals.

Immediately, Dust Release was unleashed.

But it did not even touch a hair on Madara’s head.

”You flying around look a bit familiar.”

Madara felt a trace of excitement.

When he had come from the Land of Flame earlier, he had seen ninja battles, but those battles had left him completely uninterested.

Only fighting these Kage could make his mood brighten.

Tsunade directly blocked Onoki’s path, looking seriously at Madara.

As a powerful ninja who could be mentioned in the same breath as her grandfather, Hashirama, Tsunade would never underestimate Madara’s strength.

”What’s going on?”

Nagato looked at the chaotic situation before him.

Earlier, he had still been thinking about how to cooperate with Kenichi to take down these Kage.

He had not expected that in the very next second, someone would jump out and start fighting the three Kage.

It could not even be called an even match.

Nagato could see that the black-haired man was fighting very easily, with the casual air of someone teasing children.

”Uchiha Madara... I didn’t expect him to be resurrected with Edo Tensei.”

Kenichi rubbed his temples, feeling somewhat annoyed.

Things had once again slipped out of his control.

Kenichi had planned everything perfectly.

Defeat the Five Kage.

Control those who could be controlled.

Then weaken the combat power of the other four villages on the main battlefield.

After that, he would directly annex the Land of Lightning in one fell swoop, establishing a land passage for the Land of Flame and avoiding restrictions on the transportation of its goods.

Then he could slowly annex the other countries while also trying to kill Obito to prevent him from causing trouble.

But now, all those plans had been disrupted.

The monster named Uchiha Madara had appeared.

”Nagato.”

Kenichi looked at Nagato beside him, his expression serious.

Nagato looked back at Kenichi in confusion.

He knew Uchiha Madara.

Madara had even joined the Akatsuki Organization before, but his strength had seemed relatively average, at least inferior to Nagato himself, who possessed the Sage’s eyes.

So Nagato did not understand why his collaborator was so nervous now.

”According to my research, after the Sharingan evolves into the Mangekyo Sharingan, advancing further becomes extremely difficult. But once that step is crossed, as long as the conditions are met, there is a chance to obtain the Rinnegan.”

Kenichi spoke seriously.

Nagato listened quietly.

The battle in front of them continued, and Madara seemed to only be warming up.

The three Kage, who held great renown throughout the Shinobi World, were like three children trying to snatch lollipops from an adult in Madara’s hands.

They posed no threat whatsoever.

”Something like the Rinnegan is basically impossible to obtain on one’s own.”

Kenichi finished speaking.

Nagato understood what he meant.

Kenichi was saying that his eyes had most likely been given to him by someone else.

This made Nagato frown slightly.

”I obtained these eyes when I was a child. After witnessing my parents being killed by enemies, my hidden bloodline awakened.”

Nagato did not quite agree with Kenichi’s words.

He had always believed that his eyes had come from awakening his own bloodline.

Kenichi’s mouth twitched.

Awakening a bloodline to obtain the Rinnegan?

Even the protagonists of Naruto, Naruto and Sasuke, would not dare say such a thing.

Sasuke’s Rinnegan had not advanced slowly on its own either.

Otherwise, if the Uchiha Clan could awaken the Rinnegan just by witnessing their parents’ deaths, then what would have been the point of the Third Hokage and Danzo Shimura?

”You need to be careful. Uchiha Madara is very likely to go after your original body and reclaim his eyes.”

Kenichi could only warn Nagato.

As for whether Nagato listened, that was Nagato’s business.

However, Nagato was still alive, and Konan was guarding him.

It would not be easy for Black Zetsu to launch a sneak attack.

If Madara went after Nagato, then as soon as the battle began, Kenichi could immediately go support him.

Nagato was somewhat confused.

What did this mean?

His eyes had been given to him by Madara?

They had not been obtained by himself?

And was Kenichi implying that Madara was very likely to come and reclaim his eyes?

Kenichi took a deep breath.

He did not pay attention to the confused Nagato.

Instead, he looked up at the sky.

The sky was not very good at the moment.

There were some clouds, but not enough to meet the requirements for performing that Sage Art Lightning Release.

So...

Forget it. I’ll worry about the future later. Right now, I must find a way to break this situation.

Kenichi narrowed his eyes.

His body flickered, and a Shadow Clone quietly left with a scroll.

Kenichi also whispered something to Nagato.

After hearing it, Nagato silently nodded.

”Nagato, let me show you what a true powerhouse looks like.”

With the preparations done, Kenichi was now ready to go all out.

He had to attract Madara’s attention, as well as the attention of the other three Kage, to provide cover for the upcoming nuclear explosion.

Kenichi did not have much confidence.

Madara was too monstrous.

Even if Kenichi used all his chakra to unleash True Several Thousand Hands, he was not certain he could send Madara back to the Pure Land.

So he had to add a nuclear explosion to make sure Madara returned there.

The only pity was that he did not have Madara’s body tissue.

Otherwise, he could have resurrected Madara with Edo Tensei himself and controlled him that way.

But even then, he was not sure whether it would succeed.

Madara was too troublesome.

He also had great talent for understanding ninjutsu, so it was hard to say whether the control method would work on him.

”Sage Art! Wood Release! True Several Thousand Hands!”

As immense chakra surged in, Kenichi’s vision suddenly soared upward.

Almost instantly, he saw the surrounding valleys and even the distant battlefield.

This colossal size even surpassed the Wood Golem Jutsu.

No wonder this ninjutsu could overwhelm Madara’s Armored Nine-Tails.

”This ninjutsu!”

Nagato’s pupils contracted.

He had also been lifted up by the gigantic Thousand-Armed Buddha statue.

He was now standing on the statue’s head, and below them, the tiny figures were the three Kage and Madara.

”Wood Release! This monster, he even mastered this ninjutsu!”

Onoki gritted his teeth.

With Madara in front and Kenichi behind, at this moment, he felt as if he had returned to his childhood, facing the God of Shinobi who had once dominated the entire Shinobi World.

A sense of powerlessness surged uncontrollably through his heart.

Tsunade looked at Madara, who had been fighting effortlessly the entire time, then looked back at the gigantic Thousand-Armed Buddha statue behind her.

Her heart felt heavy.

She did not even know whether she could survive such a ninjutsu.

”This guy...”

Raikage A wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Madara was already troublesome enough, but he had not expected Kenichi, that bastard, to still have another trump card.

Madara looked at the colossal entity before him, and his heart pounded with excitement.

He felt a thrill as chakra surged rapidly.

Immediately afterward, the Complete Body Susanoo stood up, facing the Thousand-Armed Buddha statue in front of it.

”Hahahahaha! Entertain me!”

Madara let out a maniacal laugh.

Ever since Hashirama died, Madara had felt that life had lost its meaning.

Completing the Eye of the Moon Plan had become his only obsession.

But now, looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar Thousand-Armed Buddha statue, Madara’s heart was filled with passion.

He had found the passion for battle again.

It was as if he had returned to the past, facing Hashirama and fighting with all his might.

Despair enveloped the hearts of the three Kage.

They did not even know what meaning their presence here had.

”We need to break through.”

Onoki’s expression was grave.

He saw no possibility of defeating these two monsters.

They had to get away from them, or they might not even know how they died.

”Mhm.”

A took a deep breath, gathered the chakra within his body, and leaped up.

”Do your best.”

Tsunade sighed.

Jiraiya’s death did not seem unjust.

Fukasaku had not even seen Kenichi use this Wood Release ninjutsu, which meant Kenichi had still been hiding trump cards.

The next moment, two figures flew high.

Each descended rapidly from the air with a punch, striking the Complete Body Susanoo.

At the same time, Onoki also used his trump card.

Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Jutsu!

Kenichi did not notice this.

When he saw the Complete Body Susanoo, he used Top Transformed Buddha without hesitation.

Countless fists continuously slammed toward Madara in front of him.
