Then, a huge thousand-armed Buddha statue appeared in front of him, leaving Naruto Uzumaki completely dumbfounded.
For the first time, he, who had always considered himself a god, began to doubt his own abilities.
"Is this... the power of the First Hokage?"
Naruto muttered to himself, unable to muster any thought of resistance in the face of such a colossal creature.
"Naruto, cheer up! Hashirama Senju is not invincible. As long as you become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, you will definitely be able to defeat him."
"We've worked so hard for so long, are you just going to give up now?"
"Are you going to ignore our dreams, the world's hope, and the expectations of all living beings?"
Seeing that Naruto was about to lose his fighting spirit, Black Zetsu became anxious.
I've raised you for so long, do you think I'd let you give up on yourself?
I told you from the beginning not to fight Hashirama Senju, but you wouldn't listen to me.
Now, when you can't beat them, you're getting all emotional. Can't you learn from Black Zetsu's unwavering will?
How many times have I failed over the past thousand years?
But I never thought of giving up!
You're giving up hope just because you've encountered a little setback? What happened to your indomitable spirit from your past life?
"You're right!"
How could I give up on our dreams?
"I am the man who inherited the will of the Sage of Six Paths, and I will bring light to the world—Naruto Uzumaki!"
"Asura, let's go!"
Black Zetsu's words helped Naruto Uzumaki regain his spirits.
"Wake up, young man!"
Just as Naruto Uzumaki regained his confidence, Hashirama Senju roared, and thousands of arms of the giant Buddha statue simultaneously slammed down on Naruto.
"Nine-Tails, Asura, unleash all your chakra in an instant and fight him to the death!"
Naruto's Sharingan slowly closed, and an unprecedented light shone from within the Rinnegan.
Immediately, he raised his arm and aimed it at Hashirama Senju.
"Chibaku Tensei!"
The moment Naruto Uzumaki clenched his fist, Hashirama Senju's body flew up uncontrollably.
The earth below collapsed and the sea surged back, sucking up all the creatures that screamed and wailed in agony.
As for Hashirama Senju, who was used as the core of Chibaku Tensei, he was unable to move an inch.
He could only watch helplessly as countless pebbles flew towards him, slowly enveloping his body.
Chibaku Tensei has two activation modes.
One approach is to create a core and use it as the center to attract everything around it.
Another method is to use the enemy itself as the core, absorb surrounding things, and seal them away.
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki was sealed in this way. Of course, the power of Six Paths — Chibaku Tensei is definitely far greater than the one Naruto used.
In the future, Sasuke also used Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki himself as the core to briefly seal him for a few seconds.
However, he couldn't seal Momoshiki because his own chakra was too low.
Naruto Uzumaki, however, was different. This attack not only used up all of the Nine-Tails' chakra and his own chakra, but also incorporated the power of Black Zetsu.
Only then can Hashirama Senju be sealed!
Boom boom boom!
At the same time, Hashirama Senju's attack had already landed on Naruto Uzumaki.
Without the protection of the Nine-Tails' chakra, Naruto Uzumaki had no choice but to take the brunt of thousands of giant hands with his own body.
"Asura, I may have to disappoint you. This is the end!"
"Go and wait for your next life!"
"In the next life, I will never let you down!"
Naruto Uzumaki, having used up all his strength, said to Black Zetsu with a wry smile.
"Your mission is not yet complete, I will not allow you to die here!" Black Zetsu roared excitedly for the first time since his rebirth. Then, he channeled a surge of chakra into Naruto Uzumaki and used the forbidden Uchiha technique: "Izanagi!"
The moment Naruto's eyes flashed with crimson light, all the damage became an illusion, and his figure vanished from the spot, reappearing in the air, watching the Thousand-Armed Buddha gradually wither.
Without Hashirama Senju's chakra supply, neither the wooden dragon, the wooden golem, nor the Great Buddha Senju could sustain an attack on Naruto Uzumaki.
However, his final attack before being sealed caused Naruto Uzumaki's Mangekyō Sharingan to lose its light.
"Big brother!"
Having just completed a long-distance transport mission, Tobirama Senju returned to find Hashirama Senju sealed away.
"No need to call anymore." Naruto said breathlessly in the air, "The seal I put on with all my strength cannot be broken even if the Sage of Six Paths were to be resurrected (that's what he thought).
"Lord Second, your foolish actions will cause the suffering of the ninja world to continue for some time to come."
"You have hindered the arrival of peace; you are a sinner against the world."
"Since you're not prepared to hand over the Three-Tails, then let's start the war!"
"I hereby declare war on the Fourth Shinobi World War!"
The six tomoe in Naruto's Rinnegan had disappeared, demonstrating just how much he had been drained.
Upon hearing his words, Tobirama Senju was even more enraged.
This guy not only sealed away his older brother, but he's also planning to start the Fourth Shinobi World War.
"Naruto Uzumaki, do you think I'll let you leave unscathed?"
"Don't be naive. You'll stay here today!"
With his extensive combat experience, Tobirama Senju knew very well that now was the perfect time to kill Naruto Uzumaki.
Once this opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to find him so weak again.
With this in mind, several Flying Thunder God Kunai shot towards Naruto Uzumaki at the same time.
"Today, I will rid the ninja world of this scourge!"
As Tobirama spoke, chakra surged forth from his body, and just as he was about to activate his Suiton ninjutsu, a sudden change occurred.
"Rasengan!"
A Rasengan suddenly flew in from nowhere, causing Tobirama Senju's body to explode on the spot.
Seeing this, Obito Uchiha, who was also about to make a move, immediately abandoned his idea of finishing off the enemy.
"Kamui!"
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him, he used Kamui to leave.
"You wanted to hurt my foolish father, did you even ask for my opinion?"
After shattering Hashirama Senju's body, Boruto Uzumaki, with his Jōgan activated and his body covered in 'Kāma' patterns, appeared and spoke.
Momoshiki's will has now completely taken control of this body.
However, because he wants to take advantage of Naruto Uzumaki, he is still pretending to be Boruto Uzumaki.
When the reanimated body was reconstituted, Tobirama Senju's face turned extremely grim.
Although this person did not have the Rinnegan, the sense of oppression he exuded was in no way inferior to that of Naruto Uzumaki.
"Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu!"
After a brief hesitation, Tobirama Senju formed hand seals, and a monstrous wave swirled into the air.
Just as it was about to reach Momoshiki, the vortex transformed into a water dragon, lunging at him.
"You ignorant and lowly creature!"
Momoshiki slightly raised his hand, and Tobirama Senju's attacks were completely devoured by the Kāma in his hand.
