I, The New Hokage of Konoha - Chapter 259
“In the sealed space, fighting Kushina, the owner, was not a wise move.
Especially the latter gained more power from the Nine-Tails.
After briefly probing, Uchiha Madara decided not to waste any more time and disappeared from the sealed space.
Outside.
Compared to the sealed space, Madara, with the full power of the Sharingan, looked at Kushina, whose entire body was already enveloped in the golden chakra of the Nine-Tails, and said coldly, ‘I can control the complete Nine-Tails, let alone half of it. Get down!’
The tailed beasts are very important to Madara,
Although he couldn’t move his allies here at the moment, the Nine-Tails, which is the most important enemy at the moment, even if it’s only half, is worth him taking action.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Instantly, the ground in all directions centered on Kushina rapidly cracked under Madara’s Wood Release, and many trees quickly grew and entangled the former.
“Da** old man! Don’t underestimate the power of the Nine-Tails and me!”
In response, many hands formed from the Nine-Tails’ chakra condensed on Kushina’s body, about to grab the attacking trees.
Suddenly, a new batch of trees sprang up, and aiming at the trees activated by Madara’s Wood Release, they quickly clashed.
Soon, the trees controlled by Madara’s Wood Release were defeated.
However, Madara didn’t care about this.
He finally looked at a person who suddenly appeared on the opposite side and said in a rare serious tone, ‘Yuki Senju, you’ve finally arrived.’
On the battlefield of Konoha, beside Hashirama, a red and white Hokage ceremonial robe fluttered in the wind.
When Yuki, who came from thousands of miles away, raised his head and looked at Madara, he said calmly, ‘Since you invited me, of course I had to come.’
When Madara attacked Konoha, he also used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport him away. At the same time, he used a large amount of chakra to transmit the message of Madara’s arrival in the form of paper to the faraway Yuki, deliberately leaving a Flying Thunder God seal for Yuki where he could use it.
At that time, the Cloud Ninjas had already surrendered, and Yuki was in the process of incorporating them and assigning tasks to the Toshiro clan and others.
After suddenly receiving the message from Minato, he didn’t dare to delay. After issuing orders to Toshiro and the others as quickly as possible, he left three thousand Konoha Ninjas. He used the Flying Thunder God to arrive at Hashirama’s side, where he had left his Flying Thunder God seal.
This was the first time Yuki had traveled such a long distance from the Land of Lightning to the Land of Grass in person.
Although his chakra consumption was much greater than before, he didn’t care much because of his abilities as a Sage.
After helping Kushina and greeting Madara, Yuki looked around.
At this time, because of Madara and his subsequent arrival, the battle between Konoha and the Rock Ninjas had gradually calmed down. Under the guidance of Onoki, many Rock Ninjas were now retreating.
Seeing this, Yuki didn’t pay much attention to these Rock Ninjas. After nodding to Minato on the side, he turned to Madara again and said with a serene smile, ‘I never thought that a character like you, Madara, would actually ally with the Five Nations. Why? Have you found that the current Konoha is beyond your abilities, so you’re working with these ants in your eyes as consumables?’.
Yuki learned of Madara’s alliance with the Five Nations from Toshiro after subduing the Cloud Ninjas, which surprised him.
After all, in his own understanding, someone with Madara’s outstanding personality should not have any dealings with these people he despised.
But the truth was that the other party took the initiative to run to the Four Kage Meeting to propose cooperation.
Was it because of himself?
Thinking about this, Yuki raised his eyebrows slightly.
In the past, Madara standing in the camp of the Five Nations was still a great threat to Konoha.
But now…
“Hey hey hey! Who are you calling ants?”
Suddenly, a voice of a displeased youth interjected.
Upon hearing Yuki’s reference to “ants” in his words, and before Madara could respond, Deidara, who was not afraid of the strong and had a strong temper, stood up angrily, wanting to let the Hokage experience the art he had studied for many years and see if he still called them “ants” in the future.
However, he was quickly pressed back by Onoki.
“Lord Hokage, although you are very powerful, under the ten thousand strong army of the Five Nations, you and Konoha behind you are not opponents. For the sake of Konoha’s foundation for nearly sixty years and for the sake of the Land of Fire, I advise Lord to stop as soon as possible.”
Onoki, who had much more experience than Deidara, although Yuki had ignored him from the beginning, still spoke in a tough tone when he saw the situation.
Just as he finished speaking, the roar of support from twenty thousand Rock Ninjas on the battlefield followed suit.
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
In the past, they had united to kill the Third Raikage, who was known as the “Strongest Spear,” and the Third Toshirokage, and now, in the face of the Fourth Hokage, they were still unafraid.
“Compared to the Cloud Ninjas, the Stone Ninjas are indeed more interesting. But a hundred thousand troops? Toshirokage, you’re blowing it up too big. Besides, in the current situation, instead of worrying about the surrender of Konoha, you should be more concerned about your own fate in the future.”
Yuki shook his head and turned his gaze from Onoki to Deidara.
In comparison, this artist who had provided him with a spectacular fireworks display at his wedding was more interesting to him.
Speaking of which, this kid’s explosive ability was extremely powerful. For the construction corps, which had been cutting through mountains and digging roads for a long time, it was definitely a major weapon.
Yuki made a decision.
If he captured Deidara later, he would send him to the construction corps after the war.
This way, the construction speed of the corps could be greatly increased, and Deidara himself could continue to create his art.
A win-win situation, isn’t it?
Unaware of Yuki’s “kindness,” Deidara suddenly felt a chill all over his body at this moment. He had wanted to say something, but he had to swallow his words.
So, Madara, who had been overshadowed by the others but had been watching everything calmly, finally spoke, ‘Yuki Senju, you are strong. As the second opponent I have taken seriously after Hashirama, I will naturally give it my all. So these words are unnecessary.’
‘Just a casual remark, a warm-up before the battle.’
Yuki smiled slightly.
He would not think that his words alone could sow discord between Madara and the Five Nations.
In fact, there was no trust between the two parties.
They were only reluctantly sticking together because of his relationship.
Yuki could guarantee that if his side was no longer a threat, Madara and the Five Nations would immediately start fighting.
Apart from anything else, regarding the tailed beasts, there was no room for compromise between the two sides.
By the way, speaking of the tailed beasts, at this moment, Yuki subconsciously looked at Kushina, who was eager to try and was waiting for his order to join Madara in besieging him.
‘Madara, I’ll take care of him alone. Minato, watch Kushina.’ Without waiting for the unlikely event that could happen if he sent Kushina alone, Yuki immediately ordered.
‘Yes!’ Minato immediately replied.
In the end, Kushina, who had been defeated earlier and was unwilling, could only nod.
Finally, without wasting any more time, Yuki, with a solemn expression, said to Madara, ‘Since you brought me here so urgently, then shall we continue our unfinished battle?'”
