Bang!!!
Under Hashirama Senju's control, the towering Wood Golem took a step forward. The already turbulent lake was stirred into a raging storm, and it slammed a hand towards Kaoru in the air.
Flying Thunder God Jutsu!!!
Everyone's vision blurred, and Kaoru instantly disappeared from sight. When their eyes could track Kaoru again, he was floating in the air, far from the giant Wood Golem.
"This feeling is…"
Seeing Kaoru use Flying Thunder God Jutsu, a sharp light flashed in Hashirama Senju's eyes, and he murmured softly, "Is this Tobirama's Flying Thunder God Jutsu? I didn't expect you to know it too. What a formidable opponent…"
"I'll lure Hashirama Senju away. You guys continue fighting here…" Kaoru said to the other four Kage without heeding Hashirama Senju's gaze. His body moved continuously, increasing the distance between himself and Hashirama Senju and his Wood Golem.
"Don't think you can run!!!" Uchiha Obito roared, then charged forward with Hashirama Senju and the giant Wood Golem.
Kaoru fled ahead, while Uchiha Obito and Hashirama Senju pursued him relentlessly.
Although the Wood Golem was massive, its speed was not slow. With a single stride, it instantly closed the distance with Kaoru. However, Kaoru's Flying Thunder God Jutsu was not to be trifled with. Just as the Wood Golem was about to attack him, he vanished from his spot and reappeared ten meters away.
Thus, pursued by this giant Wood Golem, Kaoru moved further and further away from the canyon lake.
"Alright, such a distant location… Even if the battle causes collateral damage, it shouldn't harm those burdens…" Looking back, Kaoru could no longer see the vast lake. He immediately relaxed and stopped in place.
"Why did you stop running? Have you decided how you're going to die now…" Obito said coldly, looking at Kaoru.
"No, it's just that the distance is sufficient now…" Kaoru replied calmly. After dodging another fierce grab from the Wood Golem, he looked back at the giant Wood Golem.
"Wood Golem Jutsu… I should be able to finish this in one move…" Kaoru smiled faintly as he looked at the giant wooden giant before him.
In the next moment, the surging chakra within him condensed into a very cool-looking handgun.
And what happened next made Hashirama Senju's eyes widen even further in shock!
"Cannon Barrage!!!"
Kaoru, floating in mid-air, his scarlet Mangekyō Sharingan flashing with dazzling, profound light, then pulled the trigger on the handgun in his hand and fired a shot towards the sky!
RUMBLE!!!
In the next moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and countless cannonballs the size of basketballs rained down fiercely!
Instantly, the entire air around the towering giant Wood Golem was filled with the dense smell of gunpowder. Countless real, live cannons materialized in the space. Each shot seemed to be from the end of the heavens, each containing infinite power, bombarding the giant towering Wood Golem, Uchiha Obito, and Hashirama Senju!
BOOM!!!
Numerous deafening roars erupted in a very short period, converging into a massive sonic boom. Not only that, but the entire area where the Wood Golem stood was instantly engulfed in flames.
Countless explosives bombarded wildly, and the intense light and shockwaves almost shattered the eyes and eardrums of everyone present!
Under the bombardment of countless bombs from Kaoru's S-rank Hero Ninjutsu, Cannon Barrage, the towering giant Wood Golem that stood like a pillar was completely disintegrated and collapsed with a roar, turning into a sky full of wood chips and scattered debris!
"After Flower Tree World Descent, even Wood Golem Jutsu was resolved with one move…"
Hashirama Senju, at the center of the barrage, was also completely dispersed. The scattered paper fragments reassembled into his astonished face. In his decades-long ninja career, battling through the Warring States period, he had never experienced such shock as he did today.
"This… this is a joke…"
Seeing the towering Wood Golem, summoned by Wood Style, shattered in an instant, Obito, who had been hiding in the intangible space since the beginning, thought that if he hadn't been in the intangible space, those cannonballs… would have likely vaporized him too.
"The Wood Golem in the distance is gone… Did Kaoru finish it…" The four Kage, fighting the former Kage, felt an inexplicable shock as they scanned the horizon and saw no sign of the Wood Golem.
"This power… even the God of Shinobi would tremble…"
Seeing that even his Wood Golem Jutsu was completely ineffective against Kaoru and was shattered in an instant, Hashirama Senju's reanimated face showed a solemn expression. "Is this the power that defeated Madara… I never imagined I'd encounter such a ninja in this era…"
"However, this kind of battle is truly exhilarating. I haven't experienced this in a long time…"
"However, this kind of battle is truly exhilarating. I haven't experienced this in a long time…"
Although only a reanimated body, the formidable power displayed by Kaoru ignited Hashirama Senju's battle spirit. Intense fighting spirit instantly and uncontrollably filled his entire body!
Sage Mode activated!
Hashirama Senju clasped his hands together before his chest. Instantly, an invisible aura erupted, and strange scarlet markings appeared on his face and forehead. His entire aura became completely different from before.
"The First Hokage's fighting spirit seems to have been fully ignited…" Far from here, Yakushi Kabuto wore a wry smile. The powerful fighting spirit seemed to have driven Hashirama Senju to act on his own. He activated Sage Mode spontaneously, not under Kabuto's control…
Just as Kaoru had said, the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju… was truly willful…
"Sage Mode, huh…"
Seeing Hashirama Senju activate Sage Mode at this moment, feeling the immense aura emanating from him, which was vastly different from before, Kaoru finally felt a long-lost surge of fighting spirit.
He didn't know where Hashirama Senju learned Sage Mode from. However, since Sage Mode involved absorbing natural energy, and his Wood Style was closely related to nature, perhaps he had discovered it himself…
Shaking his head slightly, Kaoru dismissed the thoughts in his mind. The origin of Hashirama Senju's Sage Art was not important. What was important now was to defeat and seal him!
"This is the God of Shinobi, Hashirama Senju, as I imagined him to be. The ninja Uchiha Madara once admired most…"
"However… you're not the only one with Sage Mode…"
Sage Mode, activate!
Under Hashirama Senju's uncertain gaze, Kaoru also gently clasped his hands together before his chest. A great and boundless aura erupted from his body. The strong airflow instantly dispersed all the dust around them, and a strange color appeared at the corners of his eyes.
"That is… I didn't expect you to know it too!" Seeing Kaoru activate Sage Mode, Hashirama Senju's eyes widened in surprise. From Kaoru, he felt an aura that was both familiar and strange.
"A Sage Mode that is close to perfect, just like mine…"
