"Interesting. To deal with me, youve even gathered the Kage reanimated from other battlefields here…" Kaoru said, looking at the three newly arrived Kage. His face showed no signs of nervousness; instead, he seemed rather intrigued.
"No… this is not enough…" In a cave far away, Kabuto Yakushi, who was controlling these reanimated Kage, showed no joy on his face. He had witnessed Kaorus combat power multiple times and had a rough understanding of his strength. Perhaps even the four Kage united… would be no match for Kaoru.
"Since thats the case, lets add another piece to the puzzle…" As he spoke, Kabuto made another move.
"Damn it, my hand is moving on its own…" On the battlefield, the Second Tsuchikage cursed, then formed hand seals and slammed his hands onto the ground!
"Summoning Jutsu!!!"
Eerie runes spread across the ground, followed by a "boom." As smoke rose, a coffin slowly emerged.
Then, the coffin lid was pushed open, and a figure gracefully stepped out.
Upon clearly seeing the figure, Kaoru's face actually showed a hint of surprise.
Silver-white hair, deep blue battle armor, and slender eyes carrying an extraordinary aura, exuding a presence distinctly different from other Kage-level ninjas.
"Its actually Tobirama Senju, the Second Hokage…"
I didnt expect things to turn out this way. It seems to be getting more interesting…
"Even the Second Hokage-sama has appeared…" The hundred allied ninjas behind Kaoru were completely stunned. With five Kage gathered here, these hundred-odd ninjas… were no match at all…
"Commander-General, should we request reinforcements? With five former Kage gathered here, Im afraid…" One of the allied ninja squad leaders nervously approached Kaoru and asked cautiously.
"Theres no need. Im enough by myself…" Kaoru shook his head slightly. "Gathering them all together saves me the trouble of finding them separately…"
"And… Tobirama Senju…" Kaoru murmured the name of the ninja clad in deep blue battle armor before him. His scarlet, deep Mangekyō Sharingan eyes swirled with surging, vast ocular power, and the corners of his lips began to curve upwards slightly. "With him here, it should be a good pre-battle warm-up exercise…"
"Reanimation Jutsu… How detestable…"
A deep, resonant voice sounded. Tobirama Senju, the Second Hokage, clad in deep blue battle armor, looked at his own body, a grim expression on his face.
"Its quite tragic, isnt it? The jutsu you invented is being used against you, turning you into a tool. Second Hokage, you are truly pitiful…" Kaoru said calmly, looking at Tobirama Senju.
"You are…" Tobirama also looked at Kaoru. When he saw Kaoru's scarlet eyes, he couldnt help but be startled.
"A member of the Uchiha clan?!""
"Thats right. I am a member of the Uchiha clan." Kaoru took a step forward and said, "Seeing me, you must be angry, but since its you, Tobirama, Ill give you two pieces of news…"
"Two pieces of news?" Tobirama was taken aback, not understanding Kaoru's words.
"Youll be very interested in these two pieces of news. The first is that the Uchiha clan, which you always considered a hidden threat to Konoha, has been annihilated. There are now only three living members of the Uchiha clan in this world…" Kaoru stated the news with a calm expression.
"The Uchiha clan has perished…" A look of shock flashed across Tobirama Senjus face before returning to calm. "This was to be expected. It seems this ambitious clan has finally paid the price for their ever-expanding ambitions."
"Yes… I think the annihilation of the Uchiha clan should be good news for you, Tobirama. Next, Ill tell you the second piece of news… That is, I, as a member of the Uchiha clan… am now the Sixth Hokage…" Kaoru said, looking at Tobirama with a playful glint in his eyes.
"I, as a member of the Uchiha clan… am now the Sixth Hokage…" Kaoru said, looking at Tobirama with a playful glint in his eyes.
Tobirama, you probably never dreamed that a ninja from the Uchiha clan, whom you feared the most, would become Hokage…
"What did you say?!" As expected, a look of shock lingered on Tobiramas face for a long time. This news from Kaoru was even more astonishing to him than the annihilation of the Uchiha clan.
"Brat, you cant just say things like that. I doubt Hiruzen Sarutobi would ever allow an ambitious Uchiha to become Hokage. Besides, youre still so young…"
"Believe it or not, Im just stating a fact…" Kaoru waved his hand dismissively.
A look of doubt reappeared on Tobiramas face. He glanced at the hundred-odd ninjas behind Kaoru. From their gazes, Tobirama knew that Kaoru was telling the truth.
"Although I dont know how you became Hokage, I hope the hatred in the Uchiha bloodline hasnt affected you. If you do anything detrimental to Konoha, I absolutely will not…"
"Absolutely will not spare me?" Before Tobirama could finish, Kaoru interrupted with a smile. "Second Hokage-sama, you are merely a dead man now, and an enemy of the entire ninja world. I say… you should be the one atoning for your Reanimation Jutsu, shouldnt you? After all, the enemy grew strong using your technique. You are the sinner of this Great Ninja War…"
"…" Hearing Kaorus words, Tobirama Senju was speechless. Kaoru's words were not incorrect, and he could find no reason to refute them.
"Alright, enough idle chatter…" At this moment, Tobirama Senju heard Kabuto's voice in his mind.
"You are the one who performed the Reanimation Jutsu?!"" Hearing Kabuto's voice, Tobirama questioned angrily.
"Thats right, its me. But I didnt summon you all here just to chat…" Kabuto spoke slowly from the darkness, forming hand seals. "So, lets take action. Oh, and by the way, Second Hokage-sama, you are indeed the greatest contributor to our instigation of this war…"
"Five Kage, your target is this person before you, Kaoru Uchiha…"
"I see. Your target is this member of the Uchiha clan…" Hearing Kabutos words, Tobirama's expression turned sharp and murderous as he looked back at Kaoru.
"I never thought Id have the chance to fight alongside the Second Hokage-sama of Konoha. We were enemies before…"
As Tobirama and the other four Kage appeared on the battlefield, Gengetsu Hozuki, the Second Mizukage, also emerged from behind the rocks. The gazes of the five Kage clashed in the air.
"You, I didnt expect you to be reanimated too…"
Seeing Gengetsu Hozuki emerge from behind the rocks, Mu, the Second Tsuchikage, whose entire body was wrapped in bandages, said with emotion. After all, they had both died in battle together in the past.
"Tch… Youve been reanimated too? It seems this Reanimation Jutsu caster has no taste…" Seeing the Second Tsuchikage arrive with the other three Kage, Gengetsu Hozuki pouted with dissatisfaction, still in the mood for a joke.
"Although we are all controlled by this jutsu against our will…"
At this moment, the burly and robust Third Raikage spoke in a deep voice, exchanging glances with the other four Kage present. "But the caster can control all five of us Kage simultaneously, just to deal with this young man before us…"
"Its truly incredible…" As someone who could once contend with ten thousand ninjas alone, it was difficult for the Third Raikage to comprehend that someone could control him and so many powerful ninjas simultaneously to deal with one person. "I saw this young man during the Five Kage Summit, but I never fought him…"
"Five Kage, huh? This Kabuto fellow really values me…" Kaoru thought to himself, looking at the five reanimated Kage before him.
Just as Kaoru was lost in thought, Tobirama Senju spoke.
