A cruel expression appeared on Orochimaru's face.
"The reunion is over. Your body and your eyes are mine."
Ryōsuke immediately activated his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
"Is it these eyes you're after?" Ryōsuke asked. "Because I want your brain, too."
Orochimaru burst into laughter. These were the eyes he had yearned for. As for the other party wanting his brain? Pure delusion.
Orochimaru formed hand seals.
"Go, subdue him for me."
The Second Mizukage, Second Tsuchikage, Second Hokage, Third Raikage, and First Hokage immediately surged forward to besiege him.
Orochimaru looked completely confident. Although this man was arrogant, no one could possibly struggle free from the grasp of these five powerhouses.
The Second Hokage sprinted toward Ryōsuke at blinding speed.
"Be careful."
*'Even though this guy called us useless rabble, which is infuriating, he is currently on the village's side,'* the Second Hokage thought. *'I can only do my best to warn him.'*
Ryōsuke watched the five figures charging at him.
He directly opened the Sixth Gate of the Eight Inner Gates.
Blue steam instantly surged from his body. A formidable aura erupted from him.
Facing the five attackers, he threw a direct punch.
"Air Cannon."
A massive shockwave of air instantly blasted all five of them backward. Their bodies were left battered and torn.
Seeing this, Orochimaru was instantly shocked.
*'Has he mastered the Eight Inner Gates to such a profound level?'*
*'Otherwise, a single punch couldn't possibly possess such destructive power.'*
*'What a terrifying guy.'*
*'It's a good thing I didn't come here alone.'*
*'It seems there's no hope of subduing him in close combat.'*
*'I just need to stall for time until his Eight Inner Gates state wears off and he falls into a weakened state.'*
*'Then he will be entirely at my mercy.'*
*'Alternatively, if the five Kage coordinate perfectly, they should have the power to defeat him.'*
Ultimately, Orochimaru chose to face him head-on.
With these five trump cards in his hand, he had no reason to cower.
In mere moments, the bodies of the five Impure World Reincarnation summons returned to normal.
Orochimaru directly controlled the Second Tsuchikage, Mū, making him turn invisible as his form gradually faded away.
The Second Mizukage summoned a child-sized steam clone, its right arm transforming into a sharp curved blade.
The Third Raikage activated his Lightning Armor, his entire body crackling with blue electricity.
The Second Hokage drew a kunai.
"Careful, kid. I'm going to use the Flying Thunder God Technique," he warned.
*'This guy is a ninja from the village; he should know about the Flying Thunder God Technique, right?'*
Senju Hashirama clapped his hands together.
"Wood Style: Secret Technique Descent."
Instantly, multiple trees sprouted from the ground, rapidly transforming into a massive forest. The trees extended directly toward Ryōsuke.
Meanwhile, the other four reanimated shinobi made their moves.
Looking at his masterpiece, Orochimaru felt incredibly excited.
*'This is the power of the Five Kage.'*
*'Even if I were the one fighting, facing the ultimate moves of these five, I would be defeated in an instant—perhaps even killed.'*
*'This guy is finished.'*
Ryōsuke, however, didn't panic in the slightest when faced with this assault.
He immediately manifested a massive Susanoo to protect himself. It easily blocked the entangling trees of Senju Hashirama.
Orochimaru was shocked to see the massive Susanoo suddenly appear.
*'To be able to summon a Susanoo like this means his eyes definitely aren't just standard Mangekyō Sharingan.'*
*'They must be Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, just like Uchiha Madara's.'*
This realization made him even more excited.
The Second Mizukage's steam clone accelerated through the air, its body expanding more and more until it crashed directly into the Susanoo and detonated.
Then, the Third Raikage also charged at the Susanoo. Closing in, he brought his five fingers together and thrust them forward in a piercing strike.
But piercing the surface was all he could manage.
The Second Hokage also used the Flying Thunder God Technique to close the distance, slapping an explosive tag directly onto the Susanoo.
"Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags."
He immediately teleported back using the Flying Thunder God Technique.
The tag he had placed detonated, summoning another explosive tag, and then another. A massive chain of explosions ensued.
The Second Hokage cursed inwardly.
*'To think Orochimaru even knows this jutsu... how despicable.'*
*'How on earth did Monkey manage the village? Not only did military secrets leak, but he even let his own student defect.'*
*'He even let the forbidden jutsu in my secret chamber get leaked.'*
*'I never intended to pass these forbidden jutsu down to future generations.'*
Ryōsuke, however, remained completely unfazed by the trio's attacks.
The Susanoo he summoned now was incredibly stable. After all, his eyes were the Rinnegan.
Even if his Susanoo was damaged by the explosions, he could naturally repair it instantly by supplying more chakra.
The only person he needed to pay attention to was the Second Tsuchikage, Mū.
This guy also knew Particle Style. And Particle Style possessed the power to obliterate anything.
Even his Perfect Susanoo wouldn't be able to withstand it.
He sensed the location of the invisible Second Tsuchikage. Just as Mū revealed his form and was about to bring his hands together to cast Particle Style...
Ryōsuke controlled his Susanoo to slash directly at him. Before Mū could even unleash the Particle Style, he was chopped into pieces.
A look of sheer disbelief washed over the Second Tsuchikage's face.
*'This guy knew my position the entire time.'*
*'What an extraordinary person.'*
After dealing with the Second Tsuchikage, Ryōsuke looked at Senju Tobirama.
"Didn't you invent the Impure World Reincarnation?" he asked. "Can't you just undo it?"
Senju Tobirama offered a bitter smile. "I can't. I no longer have control over my own body."
Ryōsuke felt speechless. "Even in death, you're causing trouble for the village. Now I have to clean up your mess."
Senju Tobirama was powerless to refute his words.
*'Right now, the village's protection depends entirely on this guy.'*
*'The combined strength of the five of us is more than enough to destroy the Leaf Village.'*
*'However, this guy's performance is excellent. He's incredibly strong.'*
*'He doesn't lose to Uchiha Madara in the slightest.'*
*'Or rather, even Uchiha Madara wouldn't be able to handle the combined assault of the five of us.'*
At this moment, Uchiha Ryōsuke looked at the group.
These people were all reanimated by the Impure World Reincarnation; even if their bodies were damaged, they would just regenerate.
Even if he defeated the caster, Orochimaru, it wouldn't change the current situation.
The only way was to use fūinjutsu to seal them away.
Fortunately, he possessed the complete encyclopedia of sealing jutsu.
He dashed directly out of his Susanoo. Concentrating chakra into his right hand, he formed a sealing mark.
Before the Raikage could even react, Ryōsuke slammed his hand directly onto his body.
The impact sent the Raikage crashing heavily into the ground, forming a massive crater.
Immediately after, he sprinted rapidly toward the Second Mizukage.
Orochimaru quickly manipulated the steam clone to rush back and assist, but it was far too late.
Ryōsuke swiftly delivered a palm strike directly to the Second Mizukage's body, driving the sealing mark straight into him.
