Chapter 157: Chapter 156. The Cause! Deceiving the God of Death!
"Tsunade-chan, you really have grown up."
Looking at the four Kages leaving, Senju Hashirama patted Tsunade gently on the shoulder.
However, before the serious expression on his face lasted for two seconds, he suddenly collapsed.
"Hehe, your imposing aura just now really scared me, hahaha!"
Senju Hashirama's mouth was wide open, with an exaggerated expression. Being summoned back from Pure Land and witnessing the current shinobi world was really interesting for Senju Hashirama.
Especially at this moment, seeing that Tsunade had grown into a qualified Kage, he felt this trip was really worth it.
"Tsunade, tell me about your plan."
Senju Tobirama asked Tsunade, ignoring Senju Hashirama, who was acting weird.
Unlike Senju Hashirama, he felt that Tsunade must have her own plans after giving the other villages the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
As a Hokage of Konoha, how could one put themselves in a passive position?
Tobirama was sure that Tsunade's arrangement would definitely enable Konoha to maintain its absolute advantage, even when the other shinobi villages resurrected their Kages.
"Ah? Didn't Tsunade-chan do this to strengthen the allied forces?
There are other arrangements?"
Senju Hashirama looked at Senju Tobirama and Senju Tsunade with an exaggerated expression and scratched his head in bemusement when he saw that both of them were ignoring him.
He felt that Tobirama was too deep. 'Isn't he tired of taking ten steps at a time?'
'Why don't you just not think so much like me? Just fight when you don't like it.'
"It's the Third and Fourth Hokage, right?"
Senju Tobirama's voice then sounded, although it was clearly a question, his tone was extremely sure.
"Hmm."
Tsunade calmly nodded. She wasn't surprised that her granduncle had seen through her thoughts.
She knew that her grandfather saw through her setup too, he just didn't want to talk about it.
After all, both of them survived the Warring States Period and became Hokage. How could they be simple?
"In fact, even if they weren't pressuring me, I would have given them the improved Impure World Reincarnation technique to enhance the strength of the allied forces."
Senju Tsunade's voice sounded regretful, which stunned Senju Tobirama, and then his expression turned dark.
He felt he had misread the situation.
He still thought that Tsunade was a qualified Kage, but it turned out that she's the same as the other guy who used Wood Release too much and turned his own head dense like a board.
He was about to lecture Senju Tsunade in a cold voice, but fortunately, Tsunade stopped him with the following words:
The corners of Tsunade's mouth suddenly lifted as she continued sarcastically, "Since they think that Impure World Reincarnation can restrain Konoha, let them see the despair that follows hope!"
"When it comes to the number of Kages, my Konoha will never lose!"
Senju Tsunade said dominantly and turned her head to look down at Kabuto, who didn't say anything.
The reason why she dared to hand over the Impure World Reincarnation technique to the other shinobi villages had a lot to do with him.
"Kakashi has brought back the mask you mentioned, and a number of Wandering Shinobi Clan shinobi have been captured."
"The Yamanaka Clan leader, and the Nara Clan leader, have also completed the arrangements as required on the scrolls."
Tsunade took a deep look at Kabuto, a hint of scorn flashed in her eyes.
She couldn't understand how the other party came up with such a crazy plan.
'Cut open the belly of the Shinigami, release the souls of the Third Hokage and Fourth Hokage inside, and then complete the 'resurrection' of the two through Impure World Reincarnation!'
'This is crazy!'
'Truly worthy of the madman who started the Fourth Shinobi World War!'
Hearing Tsunade's words, Kabuto shrugged without saying anything.
At this moment, seeing that the five Kages were moving according to Orochimaru-sama's plan, Kabuto's admiration for Orochimaru had reached a new level.
'Too powerful!'
With just one move, all the shinobi of the five major shinobi villages were dancing in the palm of his hands.
Kabuto believed that no one but him could anticipate that all the five shinobi villages were going to provide experimental data for Orochimaru's research.
The Improved Impure World Reincarnation, testing the effect of the Armament Haki in combat against the Impure World Reincarnated subject, and verifying whether the Shinigami could be deceived!
In the blink of an eye, it was all coming to fruition.
At that moment, Kabuto even felt that Orochimaru-sama had a deeper purpose.
After all, he knew that, inside the Shinigami's stomach, there was more than the souls of the Third and Fourth Hokage.
'Orochimaru-sama's arm was also in there!'
'This ... this was Orochimaru-sama's whole purpose, isn't it?!'
Kabuto blinked and pushed Orochimaru's matter to the back of his mind.
Now, his task was basically completed, and his next step was to find a way to retreat.
...
"Come with me."
Seeing Tsunade leave with Hashirama and Tobirama, Kabuto followed with an expressionless face.
He knew what Senju Tsunade was going to do.
As she said just now, all the preparations were completed.
Thinking about Tsunade's preparation, Kabuto's mind moved.
'Sure enough, someone who could become Kage wouldn't be simple.'
'It's too detailed.'
'This woman is, really, too meticulous.'
Kabuto had guessed what Senju Tsunade was going to do.
'Although Konoha doesn't have Orochimaru-sama's Living Corpse Reincarnation, they actually thought of using the Secret Technique of the Yamanaka Clan, Nara Clan, and the Wandering Shinobi Clan.'
Kabuto knew a little bit of the Secret Technique of the Yamanaka Clan; there was a bizarre technique called the Mind Body Disturbance technique.
It would allow the wielder's soul to enter the recipient's body of the technique and control the movement of the other person's body.
'For the sake of insurance, this new Hokage had also called the Patriarch of the Nara Clan, to control the battlefield.'
'Together with the pawn of the Wandering Shinobi Clan...'
Although there were still some gaps between these arrangements and Orochimaru's Living Corpse Reincarnation, they could achieve similar results.
Sure enough, when Kabuto was brought to a secret room by Tsunade, several people in the room looked over in unison, and finally, their eyes fell on Kabuto.
They were all senior officials of Konoha, and they had already investigated Kabuto's identity.
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be Konoha's shinobi!
And a Genin!
"Hokage-sama, we have never done anything against Konoha. What are you arresting us for?"
In the middle of the chamber, the only shinobi whose mouth wasn't gagged saw Senju Tsunade and her group. His face lit up with joy, and he hastily asked.
He didn't understand why the other party sent Jiraiya to attack them.
"Jiraiya! Why is he still talking?"
Seeing that the other person could still ask her something, Senju Tsunade's face instantly turned cold.
She had already told Jiraiya what she wanted to do with these people. He still let the other party open his mouth to plead for mercy right now!
Senju Tsunade coldly looked at Jiraiya.
She knew Jiraiya too well!
When facing the enemy, Jiraiya was definitely one of the quickest to move. He was even more fearless than Might Guy.
But in the face of innocent people, Jiraiya's kindness will flow out.
Because she was the Hokage, Jiraiya would capture people under her command, but in the same way, he would also give the other party a chance.
A chance to beg for mercy!
"Tsunade... I..."
Being stared at by Tsunade, Jiraiya's expression stiffened. He then knew that his little move had been seen through by Tsunade.
However, these shinobi really didn't...
"Get out of the way!"
Tsunade grunted coldly and pushed Jiraya away. She approached a pale-looking shinobi and looked at him from above.
"You, what's your name?"
"Fu... Fujisaki."
Fujisaki's body was shaking like a sieve. He was just a shinobi of a small village, facing a giant like Konoha, facing a legendary figure like a Hokage; he couldn't even resist.
He could only hope that the other party would be kind enough to release him because he had never done anything wrong against Konoha.
"Fujisaki..."
Senju Tsunade murmured softly as if to remember the name.
"Fujisaki, I, Tsunade, will shoulder the lives of all three of you!"
"If you guys ever manage to come back, remember to come and find me!"
With that, Tsunade simply turned away and stopped looking at him.
Behind her, Fujisaki's eyes seemed like the world had stopped turning, making his already pale face instantly white.
"Sure enough, Tsunade's a better Hokage than I am."
Seeing Tsunade's move, Jiraiya murmured with a complicated expression.
On the other hand, Senju Tobirama looked at Senju Tsunade with satisfaction.
Strategy, determination, courage, ruthlessness, except for her weak strength, all the qualities that a Hokage should have; Senju Tsunade had them!
'Sure enough, Sarutobi found someone to entrust the future to!'
'Senju Tsunade is a person who can be entrusted with the future!'
"Oh? Tobirama, so you can smile!"
Senju Hashirama's voice suddenly sounded, which stunned Senju Tobirama.
Then the smile on his face was instantly folded back up. He looked around with a cold face and finally saw Jiraiya.
'Short-sightedness, lack of strength, and too much hypocrisy!'
'Humph!'
Tobirama looked at Jiraiya coldly.
Then, as if he felt Senju Hashirama's eyes, he turned his head sideways in disbelief, as if the things before had nothing to do with him.
"Niisan, what are you looking at me for?"
"I'll see how long you can pretend!" Senju Hashirama didn't look good, replied coldly, withdrew his gaze, and looked at the scene.
In the venue, seeing Kakashi place the mask and chakra blade used to summon the Shinigami in front of the opponent, Senju Tsunade waved her hand expressionlessly.
...
"Do it!"
Hearing Senju Tsunade's order, Yamanaka Inoichi and Nara Shikaku instantly made a move.
"Mind Body Disturbance Technique!"
"Shadow Sewing Technique!"
As their voices sounded, the Wandering Shinobi Clan's Fujisaki was shocked to find that his body was out of his control!
It was as if his consciousness had been squeezed out of his body by someone else.
He watched as his hands picked up the Shinigami mask in front of him, put it on his face, and then slowly made a few seals.
Perhaps it was his illusion, but with the completion of the seals, the temperature in the secret room instantly cooled down.
Whoosh!
The summoning ceremony was successful, and the Shinigami's figure instantly appeared behind him.
The huge shadow directly enveloped Fujisaki.
Controlled by the Secret Technique, Fujisaki couldn't turn back, but he clearly sensed that a huge, terrifying presence was right behind him.
He saw the shadow of the being in front of his feet. It had a shinobi sword in its mouth!
Terror, depression, all sorts of bizarre feelings constantly thumped his heart. It made him desperate, almost going crazy.
'No! Don't! Don't!'
Fujisaki growled, struggled, and begged frantically.
At this moment, he wished he was one of his two companions, who were unconscious on the ground and died peacefully.
At least, without having to experience such horrors.
It's just that, to add to his despair, his hands were once again moving beyond his control, groping for the shinobi sword on the ground.
