"Hahaha, don't be like that, Madara, we haven't seen each other for decades. What's the situation now?"
Hashirama Senju was still laughing loudly. Although he was a bit confused by the current situation, it didn't affect his happy mood at seeing his friend again.
"Idiot! Can't you tell we've been Reanimation Jutsu-ed?"
Madara Uchiha snorted coldly, crossed his arms, and looked at Pain and Konan opposite him with disdain.
"Looks like they're the enemies, but I wonder who Reanimation Jutsu-ed us."
At that moment, Konan, who was being stared at by Madara Uchiha, felt a chill run down her spine. Even Nagato, who was controlling the clone in the dark room, felt a hint of coldness in his heart.
At the same time, the throbbing coming from the Rinnegan confirmed that his eyes were indeed connected to Madara Uchiha in some way.
At this moment, the four Pains who were secretly maintaining the Barrier all appeared beside Deva Path and immediately entered battle mode.
"Huh? That's strange, you guys have the exact same eyes."
The somewhat thick-skinned Hashirama Senju didn't feel alert because the enemies were in front of him. Or rather, with his strength, even at only 50%, there weren't many opponents in the Shinobi World.
As for Reanimation Jutsu or anything, he was already a dead man. Although he was a little angry, he was already out, so there was nothing he could do about being angry.
"Idiot Hashirama, those are Rinnegan!"
Madara Uchiha cursed again from the side, and Hashirama Senju's expression turned bitter.
"I say, Madara, there are outsiders here, so don't always curse."
"Hmph!"
Madara Uchiha's cold snort was still the reply to Hashirama Senju.
And the Pain's Six Paths and Konan, who were waiting in full battle array on the opposite side, were a little dumbfounded at the sight of the legendary God of Shinobi World and Madara Uchiha bickering with each other. How was this style a little different from the legends?
However, Nagato quickly adjusted his state and controlled Deva Path to take a step forward, standing at the very front.
"Hashirama Senju, Madara Uchiha, let me see your current strength."
Although he knew that this Sage's eyes did not belong to him, he still had his own measure. If anyone dared to use him as a pawn, he would just overturn the chessboard.
"Haha, we don't have much strength left now, and we were already dead people. We were just forcibly summoned to the present world. We have no grudges, and even fighting with you is not our intention. Please forgive us."
Hashirama Senju still had a smiling look on his face. He himself didn't like fighting, let alone being forcibly pulled out to fight with others.
He was already trying to break free from the control of Reanimation Jutsu, but apart from infinite Chakra, he only had a little more than 50% of his strength. If it could be a little higher, he could break free directly.
Deva Path was silent, slowly shaking his head, and said, "There is no lack of hatred between you and me. My close friend died because of Konoha's conspiracy, and my country has suffered because of Konoha's war."
"Ah, this..."
Hashirama Senju didn't know what to say. He was a dead man and didn't know the actual situation of the Shinobi World in recent years. He just looked at the situation of the people opposite them, and it didn't seem very good.
He couldn't help but sigh.
"Alas, it seems that war broke out again after my death."
His original intention in establishing the "one country, one village" system and distributing the Tailed Beasts was to hope that the Countries would be wary of each other and restrain each other, reducing wars.
But he didn't expect to see the person who suffered because of Konoha's war today.
"Hmph, I said long ago that your weak power cannot achieve true peace. The Shinobi Village system that you guarded even at the cost of killing me is the true source of war."
Madara Uchiha's eyes were full of mockery and anger. He thought of how Hashirama Senju had stabbed him in the back for the sake of Konoha, and even in his Reanimation Jutsu body, he was starting to get heated.
"Uh..." Hashirama Senju was a little afraid to face Madara Uchiha's eyes.
Deva Path also didn't want to listen to these two old buddies reminiscing, and looked at Madara Uchiha with even colder eyes, asking.
"Madara Uchiha, tell me, who do these eyes truly belong to?"
Madara Uchiha raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and looked at Black Zetsu, who had already turned into a little black figure, with questioning eyes.
Black Zetsu could only shake his head helplessly, indicating that he didn't know what was going on. He believed that he had hidden himself very well, and his plan was flawless.
During this period, although he was studying Reanimation Jutsu with Hiruko, he was still conscientious, helping Akatsuki find new members all over the Shinobi World.
How could Nagato have discovered the clues? It was just like the sudden leak of Obito Uchiha's Dojutsu information last time. It couldn't possibly be Hagoromo Otsutsuki secretly informing and sabotaging him, right?
If that was the case, this Hagoromo Otsutsuki really deserved to die. Sealing his mother was one thing, but he was also secretly tripping him up, preventing him from rescuing his mother.
Seeing that Black Zetsu didn't say anything and looked very innocent, Madara Uchiha also frowned, but quickly relaxed.
Although the plan was disrupted, there was no trace of embarrassment or anger on his face. Since the chess piece wanted to jump out of the board, he could just replace it with another one.
"Heh, although I don't know how you found out, it seems that you have already lost the qualification to use those eyes."
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of rocket launchers suddenly rang out.
Little Lord, there is more to this chapter, please click on the next page to continue reading, the following is even more exciting!
Asura Path's arms seemed to crack and extend like machines, and rocket warheads protruded from the cracked openings, launching towards Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.
As the rockets were about to fall, the two simply jumped away to avoid this tentative attack. A huge explosion sounded, and a seven- or eight-meter-wide pit directly appeared under their feet.
"This kind of boring attack can't pique my interest!"
*"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"*
In the air, Madara Uchiha quickly formed hand seals, his body slightly leaning back. The next moment, a sea of fire like a tsunami spewed out of his mouth.
Rumble!
The entire Experimental Base was filled with a pungent and dull atmosphere. The raging fire devoured the earth in an instant, spreading into a sea of fire. The flames licked the earth, and grass, trees, and gravel all turned into scorched earth.
A large amount of gravel burst out with bursts of cracking sounds after being roasted.
Pain's Six Paths and Konan's expressions changed as they watched the sea of fire spreading towards them. They had never seen a Fire Release of this scale.
"Preta Path!"
The burly Preta Path immediately jumped to the front of the group, opened his arms, and aimed his palms at the sea of fire released by Madara Uchiha.
*"Sealing Technique Absorption Seal!"*
A layer of shield appeared in front of him, blocking the sea of fire and continuously absorbing it into his body.
"Oh oh oh! So powerful, it actually blocked Madara's Fire Release, is this the power of the Rinnegan?"
Hashirama Senju, who had just landed, couldn't help but exclaim when he saw this scene.
Hashirama Senju had the most say in how strong Madara Uchiha's Fire Release was. He didn't expect that there would be others in the Shinobi World who could take it now.
Hashirama Senju's voice was not low, and everyone present could hear it.
Although these words were praising the power of the Rinnegan, they sounded more like mockery to Madara Uchiha.
"Bastard!"
Madara Uchiha couldn't help but curse inwardly. Only Hashirama Senju could disturb his mind.
He didn't intend to solve the opponent with this move. He knew the ability of the Rinnegan. With just one glance, he had analyzed the approximate abilities of the six puppets.
Madara Uchiha's figure drilled into the flames, using the cover of the flames to avoid the sight of all the Pain, and appeared in front of the Preta Path, who was absorbing the flames.
The flames burned his skin, turning it into wisps of debris, but it quickly returned to its original state.
The Reanimation Jutsu body possessed the ability of immortality and could not feel any pain, so he crossed the sea of fire without any scruples and solved the Preta Path in the simplest way.
Madara Uchiha's palm had turned into a Hand Blade, and he slashed towards the Preta Path's neck. The Preta Path, who was still absorbing Ninjutsu, couldn't react at all.
"Almighty Push!"
Deva Path, who was a few steps behind, raised his right hand and directly used his ability on Madara Uchiha.
It was just a step too slow. When the repulsive force acted on Madara Uchiha, his Hand Blade had already slashed across the Preta Path's neck.
The terrifying repulsive force directly lifted Madara Uchiha's body into the air, and even the sea of fire behind him was directly blown away.
Madara Uchiha, who was flying in the air, seized an opportunity again. The ability of Almighty Push had a five-second cooldown.
Madara Uchiha quickly adjusted his body in the air and quickly formed hand seals.
Once again mobilizing the inexhaustible Chakra in his body, the flames spewed out of his mouth were more condensed and hotter, aiming at several people.
"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"
A sea of fire, hotter and more condensed than before, spewed out of Madara Uchiha's mouth.
Seeing this.
This time, it was the Animal Path who quickly formed hand seals and slammed his hands on the ground.
"Summoning Technique: Hell Crab!"
"Summoning Technique: Stone Panda!"
Two huge summoned beasts appeared, blocking the huge sea of fire.
At the same time, the summoned Hell Crab also spewed out a large amount of foam forward.
"Water Release: Foam Disturbance Wave!"
However, such a defense could not completely block Madara Uchiha's Fire Release.
The sea of fire was rapidly eroding the two major summoned beasts.
Just at this time.
"Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave!"
A loud shout suddenly rang out, and a tsunami rose from the flat ground not far away, overturning towards the sea of fire from the side.
