"Hashirama Senju?"
A cold smile appeared inwardly within Ning Feng.
He truly hadn't expected Kabuto to summon Hashirama so quickly after seeing the other two reincarnated Kage being suppressed!
Hashirama Senju—
The God of Shinobi who single-handedly pacified the chaotic era and founded the age of ninja!
RUMBLE…
As the smoke dispersed, Hashirama slowly walked forward.
His face bore the cracks of Impure World Reincarnation, and his eyes lacked their former brilliance.
"Don't erase his consciousness."
Madara suddenly raised a hand and pressed it onto Kabuto's shoulder.
"You won't be able to erase it anyway."
Kabuto's heart jolted violently.
He immediately canceled his attempt to suppress Hashirama's consciousness.
At the same time, confusion rose within him.
A shinobi powerful enough to completely alter the course of war—
If they truly left Hashirama's consciousness intact…
Wouldn't that create massive problems?
…
"So this is…"
Hashirama still wore the layered armor of the Warring States Era.
He looked like a somewhat goofy middle-aged man with long black hair.
There was barely any threatening aura coming from him.
Instead, people could only feel sincerity and warmth radiating from his heart.
It was difficult to imagine—
This was the God of Shinobi who overturned the entire ninja world by himself!
"So they didn't erase Hashirama's consciousness…"
Seeing that Hashirama's eyes still retained emotion unlike Tobirama's empty gaze, Ning Feng immediately guessed the truth.
Though cracks from the reincarnation remained across his face—
His consciousness clearly still existed.
As for whether Kabuto intentionally left it intact or simply lacked the ability to erase it…
That much Ning Feng couldn't determine.
"Konoha ninja?"
"Tobirama?"
Hashirama remained confused for a brief moment before beginning to examine his surroundings.
No surprise—
He had clearly been revived.
But what exactly was happening now?
Why was there a bandaged man standing beside his younger brother?
And more importantly—
Why was there a younger shinobi staring directly at him with undisguised battle intent blazing in his eyes?
"What exactly is going on…"
Just as Hashirama remained puzzled, Kabuto followed Madara's instructions and transmitted all the prepared information into his mind.
"So this is Impure World Reincarnation…"
Hashirama examined his own body curiously before carefully sensing himself.
His strength had indeed decreased by roughly thirty percent.
And while thirty percent didn't sound significant—
For a shinobi of Hashirama's level, that reduction was absolutely terrifying!
"So the current enemy is that enemy of Konoha?"
Hashirama scratched his head in confusion while glancing toward Minato Namikaze and the distant Konoha ninja.
So everyone here was fighting that lightning-covered shinobi?
And they'd been completely unable to deal with him, forcing them to resurrect both him and Tobirama?
All of this was fabricated information transmitted by Madara through Kabuto.
Madara understood Hashirama's straightforward personality very well.
As long as enough information sounded believable, Hashirama would accept it without much suspicion.
Thus, there was no need to erase his consciousness.
They simply needed Hashirama to view Ning Feng as the enemy.
This way—
Hashirama's combat strength wouldn't decrease too drastically like it would if his consciousness were erased.
WHOOSH!
While the four remained in stalemate—
Tobirama suddenly burst forward, thrusting a Flying Thunder God kunai directly toward Ning Feng!
Ning Feng tilted his head slightly and dodged.
At the same time, Mū formed hand seals and unleashed Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!
Yet what confused Mū was—
Even though the attack clearly hit Ning Feng…
He still walked out completely unharmed.
"This ninja isn't simple either…"
Hashirama froze slightly in surprise.
Even under a coordinated assault like that, Ning Feng hadn't suffered any real damage.
"No wonder they had to summon me too… but where's the caster?"
Hashirama clasped his hands together while inwardly puzzled.
"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!"
Trees suddenly erupted around him.
Then, like plants finally receiving rainfall after a long drought, they began growing at explosive speed, instantly covering nearly half the battlefield!
Ning Feng leapt into the air, dodging the massive wave of incoming trees!
Tobirama also rose into the air under Mū's support.
"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique!"
Standing atop the highest tree below, Hashirama pressed his palms together and roared!
A gigantic wooden dragon several times larger than Tobirama's previous water dragon suddenly burst upward from the earth and charged directly toward Ning Feng!
"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique!"
Since Hashirama had already created such an ideal environment for Wood Release—
Ning Feng naturally had no reason to hold back and immediately used the exact same technique!
"What?!"
Hashirama stared in shock as another massive wooden dragon appeared beside Ning Feng—
One completely equal to his own!
The two colossal dragons roared as they collided violently together!
"He actually… pushed me into a disadvantage?!"
Hashirama's heart trembled in disbelief.
Though his strength had dropped by roughly thirty percent—
This young ninja could actually match his Wood Release head-on?!
Who exactly was this person?
And why was his Wood Release nearly equal to Hashirama's own?!
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bite Explosion!"
"Dust Release… Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"
Behind him, Tobirama and Mū simultaneously unleashed massive-scale ninjutsu once more!
Looking at the overwhelming barrage of giant techniques descending upon him—
Ning Feng knew he couldn't simply absorb all of them using the Rinnegan's Preta Path alone.
"Susanoo!"
Suddenly—
Amid a familiar surge of chakra—
A gigantic golden warrior phantom materialized directly before Hashirama!
The terrifying pressure instantly caused both Konoha shinobi and White Zetsu nearby to tremble uncontrollably!
Compared to the previous fourth-stage Susanoo—
The pressure emitted by this Complete Body Susanoo was several times more terrifying!
The towering Susanoo finally fully solidified as massive amounts of chakra condensed into physical form.
A colossal golden samurai hundreds of meters tall stood proudly upon the battlefield.
Several long swords still sheathed rested at its side.
"Susanoo?! He's from the Uchiha Clan?!"
Hashirama was already deeply shaken by Ning Feng's abilities.
How many trump cards did this young man actually possess?
He had mastered both the legendary Wood Release and the Susanoo?!
"I never imagined… Feng would grow to this extent…"
Minato, who had just used Flying Thunder God to retreat with Kakashi to the battlefield's edge, couldn't help but sigh emotionally at the astonishing sight before him.
Fortunately, the surrounding Konoha ninja had all obeyed his orders and retreated already.
Even Minato himself only dared remain this close because of Flying Thunder God.
He too hadn't expected Kabuto to reincarnate Hashirama this quickly.
And only after witnessing the massive Deep Forest Emergence covering most of the battlefield did Minato finally understand—
The God of Shinobi truly lived up to his title!
The sheer scale of this battle…
Had already surpassed anything Minato himself could interfere in directly!
Unless he activated both Nine-Tails Chakra Mode and Sage Mode simultaneously—
Only then could he barely assist Ning Feng!
"Kakashi, gather every Konoha shinobi immediately and retreat from the battlefield!"
"I'm going to support Feng!"
