"Yako, those who were supposed to appear have already done so. It's time to end this."
Yako noticed the change in Funan's tone and replied seriously, "Understood!"
So far the losses had not been very great, so Funan had held back his forces, waiting for all the enemies to reveal themselves.
...
The battle between Hashirama and Madara became more and more intense.
"Hahaha, Hashirama! That's it, that's how it should be!"
Madara became more and more excited as the fight progressed.
But the next moment a giant figure appeared next to Madara and Hashirama.
Another Susanoo!
Uchiha Funan!
"You..."
Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara were stunned.
They had known that Uchiha Funan was very strong, but they never thought that he could be so strong.
"Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan!" Madara muttered, instantly understanding. "No wonder the Tailed Beasts are here. It seems that guy has failed in his mission."
"You two…" Funan smiled softly at Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, and said, "This place is not suitable for your battle. I will send you to another place! There, you can have fun."
Madara frowned, ready to answer, but Hashirama had already understood.
In an instant, he lunged at Madara's Susanoo and held onto it with all his might.
"Funan, quickly!" Hashirama shouted.
"Okay!" Funan grinned and started to sprint and came to the two of them in a few steps.
"Let's see how far you can go with a good kick!"
[Boom!]
With a single kick, Madara flew out with an expression of surprise and indignation.
Hashirama and Funan had executed a perfect team effort. The moment Susanoo rose into the air, Hashirama released him, giving him an extra boost in the process.
[Boom!]
A while later, Madara finally touched down.
The impact almost completely shattered his Susanoo.
Uchiha Madara's expression was grim.
"Success!" Hashirama, on the other hand, sighed in relief.
Fighting in this place was a problem for him because it could harm the Konoha shinobi. But now that Madara was sent away, without distractions, he could deal with him at ease.
"Okay, I'll leave this to you Funan!" Hashirama looked at Funan, smiled and said, "I'll go there... um!"
[Boom!]
But Funan threw a punch, hitting the head of Hashirama's wooden giant, sending it flying.
"If you want to go over there, hurry up, don't dawdle, can't you wait to see your Madara?!"
Funan muttered unhappily.
Hashirama on the other hand, with a dazed expression, was sent flying through the air, landing right in front of Madara.
Uchiha Madara: "..."
Senju Hashirama: "..."
Senju Tobirama stared at Funan with a frown: "Kid, you're going too far!"
"Bullshit!" Funan said unhappily: "Stop talking nonsense! I don't know how much strength your brother has, but it shouldn't be much. Who made you be so far behind the others in the study of Impure World Reincarnation? Hey, hurry up and end the battle here. I'll go help the others!"
Tobirama was silent for a while.
It turns out that it's my problem in the end.
"What?" Funan looked at him maliciously. "What's wrong? Don't tell me you don't know what the relationship between your brother and Madara was."
He paused before adding with a mocking smile, "Or… can you not bear to raise your hand to your two disciples?"
"Alas!" Tobirama sighed helplessly.
"I understand." He shifted his gaze to Yako. "You and I will work together. You have the power of the Adamantine Sealing Chains, and I have the Flying Thunder God. Let's finish this quickly."
"Okay!"
...
In the distance, Orochimaru watched Uchiha Madara with a cold smile. Just as he was about to make a hand seal, a cold gaze struck him.
Uchiha Funan.
He looked at Orochimaru with a smile. "Orochimaru-san, that's enough. Don't really make me angry."
Orochimaru's heart skipped a beat. Just as he tried to respond, a pair of giant eyes appeared in front of him.
And in the next instant…
His body began to fall apart.
"You..." Orochimaru looked at Funan in astonishment. "When..."
Funan smiled slightly. "Don't forget that I'm also an Uchiha. I'm also an expert in Genjutsu. I just need to look into your eyes to drag you into my world."
Orochimaru remained silent as his body continued to disintegrate.
But…
The reincarnated shinobi did not disappear.
On the contrary…
Their attacks became even more violent, fully exploiting the advantage of being immortal and having unlimited chakra.
Funan frowned and muttered to himself, "Well, even if it's not his real body, at least I gave him a good beating with this. He'll stay calm for a while."
Just as Madara had said before, this Orochimaru was a clone. Probably a special clone created by separating a part of his soul.
Even so, Orochimaru must have been injured.
He then looked away at Onoki and Hiruzen.
"It's your turn."
Funan, with his Mangekyō Sharingan activated and his hundred-meter-tall Susanoo emanating an imposing presence, declared coldly: "It's time for you to dance as well."
Onoki clasped his hands together and said coldly: "Dust Release..."
"Fire Release..."
Funan only used the simplest Fire Release.
But when channeled through his Susanoo, the flames reached a devastating level.
An area of over a hundred meters with Ōnoki at the center was engulfed in a sea of flames.
Funan watched silently, without moving.
As the flames dispersed, four figures lined up, staring at him with cold expressions.
Ōnoki, Darui, Hiruzen, and Danzo.
"Zehaha!" Funan laughed and said, "I feel like I am a big villain."
Tobirama complained in his mind: 'Hehe, you can rest assured of that.'
"Bah, if I'm the villain, then so be it. I don't care at all."
"Come on, show what you got! I want to see what you four are capable of."
Funan let out a loud laugh and added: "Don't blame me for abusing the young, the elderly, the sick and the disabled!"
"Fire Release...!"
Using Susanoo as a medium again, a fierce flame spread with such intensity that it seemed capable of setting the sky and earth ablaze.
"Dust Release...!"
Onoki formed a circle in the air with his Dust Release. Instantly, a white light enveloped the flames and completely disintegrated them.
"Shadow Clone Technique!"
Hiruzen created several shadow clones and combined ninjutsu of different elements, unleashing a devastating attack that hit Funan head-on.
"Wind Release...!"
Taking advantage of the opening, Danzo rushed forward and concentrated his wind chakra into a single point.
"Danzo, get out of the way!"
Suddenly, Darui appeared behind him with a large amount of lightning crackling in his hand.
At the same time Funan launched a devastating punch.
[Boom!]
The ground shook as if an earthquake had hit the area.
"Zehaha, did you guys really think that by joining together you could take on me?!"
Funan laughed wildly.
Darui hadn't had time to react before he was crushed in a single blow. But what exploded was not his body, but a shadow clone.
His true self trembled in fear from a distance.
Funan sneered and looked at Danzo.
"You..."
[Bang!]
Danzo tried to speak, but before he could finish, Funan crushed him with another brutal blow.
However, the world seemed to rewrite itself in an instant, and a new Danzo appeared in the distance.
Izanagi!
Funan burst out laughing, but his laughter was laced with a murderous coldness.
"Danzo, how many Sharingan do you still have left?! You damned bastard, how many of mine have you slaughtered?!"
"Ah!"
[Bang!]
The Susanoo attacked again, and another Danzo was crushed.
And again, another Danzo appeared further away.
But this time, as soon as he reappeared, he immediately began to retreat.
"Run very fast!"
Funan turned his gaze towards Hiruzen.
The old Hokage felt a chill run down his spine, and, without a second thought, he turned on his heel and ran away.
To the side, Onoki had already begun to escape.
"But why are you running away?!" Funan shouted. "If everyone runs away, then this fight will become boring!"
"N-No way! How can he be so strong?!" Darui couldn't help but let out a trembling cry.
Hiruzen and Danzo's faces darkened.
Danzo began to search for a way out.
Sensing his intention, Hiruzen also hesitated.
Onoki, for his part, was plunged into despair.
...
Under Funan's leadership, the tailed beasts followed him and together they launched a devastating attack.
And thus, Iwagakure was destroyed.
"It's finally over!" Yako exhaled deeply and breathed with some fatigue.
Even with her Uzumaki constitution, she was exhausted. The others, including Uchiha Itachi, were close to collapsing.
"Hokage-sama." A sensor ninja approached Funan and reported in a grave tone, "We couldn't find any trace of the Tsuchikage or the others. They probably escaped. The Fifth Raikage has already been stabilized and will no longer die from his injuries. He is now in ANBU custody."
Funan sighed in resignation. It was a chaotic battlefield. With ninjas like Ōnoki, who could fly, and stealth specialists like Danzō, it was still possible for them to escape if they tried their best.
One more Raikage for the collection!
Funan looked at Itachi, who nodded slightly.
Danzo and Onoki are good at saving their lives and escaping. Hiruzen is a little worse.
So, Itachi 'risked' being caught and secretly let him go.
Seeing that they could no longer catch Onoki and Danzo, they had purposely let Hiruzen escape, using Izanagi at the cost of one of the Uchiha's eyes.
Itachi had to 'kill' an Uchiha to achieve this.
Now, thanks to Hiruzen, they would soon locate the escaped rats.
At this moment, Itachi also had to sigh for Hiruzen.
Not long ago, when Itachi killed the Uchiha and saved Hiruzen, the old man was so shaken that his nose was running.
"In such a dangerous situation, you are willing to help me, Itachi, you are indeed a firm successor to the will of fire!" Hiruzen patted Itachi on the shoulder.
Seeing the old man's excitement, he almost wanted to cut off his head on the spot.
As for Funan's behavior of letting Itachi act as a spy until the very end, Itachi personally thinks that it is Funan's bad taste, wanting to make fun of Sarutobi Hiruzen. As there was no need to make the pursuit of Danzo and Onoki so complicated.
Knowing Funan, Itachi is sure he would do something like that.
