Chapter 85: Chapter 85 - Here Comes Madara
Inside a certain Uzumaki Shrine, two undead ninja legends were silently looking at the young guy in front of them.
"Hmm..Who are you?" Hashirama Senju opened his eyes as he cluelessly looked at Sasuke.
"I'm Sasuke Uchiha. I used Edo Tensei to revive you two to help me with something" Sasuke said
"An Uchiha? You look strong despite your age" Hashirama smiled as he couldn't believe that someone so young could be as powerful as him.
"Lord First, It appears that we have indeed been recalled to the world of living," Minato said as he felt the chakra of some ninjas nearby.
"Who the hell are you again?" Hashirama said as he turned towards Minato and wondered about the origins of the blonde guy.
"The Fourth Hokage, Sir," Minato said as he turned around to show the back of his cloak to Hashirama.
"Nice, Nice. So the village has remained stable for a long time," Hashirama said in excitement as he slowly approached Minato.
"We don't have much time, so I will explain everything quickly," Sasuke said as he explained everything to them.
"So a lot has happened since I died, huh? I can't believe that Lord Third would neglect my son like that" Minato said with a sad face after hearing how much Naruto had to suffer due to the fake promise of Third Hokage.
"I told Tobirama to stop multiple times but he was just too arrogant. Sigh, who is the current Hokage now?" Hashirama asked Sasuke about the current Hokage.
"Your granddaughter, Tsunade," Sasuke said, which made Hashirama's jaw drop.
"Is the village all right? Surely we aren't in massive debt, right?" Hashirama was afraid that his spoiled granddaughter might have gambled the whole village away so he naturally had to ask about the village first.
"The village is doing fine, and Tsunade is now a wise and mature woman, so you don't need to worry about that," Sasuke said, which made Hashirama breathe a sigh of relief.
"Sasuke, what was the thing you needed our help with?" Minato asked after getting over the stupidity of Third Hokage. He just wanted to help Sasuke fast so he could ask him to let him meet Naruto.
"It's not a big deal, but Madara Uchiha has been revived like you two and is causing havoc for everyone," Sasuke said, which shocked both of them.
"What? When?" Both of them asked at the same time so Sasuke started to explain about Madara and his Eye of the Moon plan.
"Infinite Tsukuyomi? Putting the whole world under Genjutsu?" Minato said in a low voice as he went into deep thought.
"If he is actually revived, then let's go and stop him," Hashirama said as he decided to go and pay his old rival a visit.
"That's where you are wrong. I can fight Madara myself without any help. I just want you to protect My Tsunade at the Headquarters," Sasuke said as he made a clone and decided to send Hashirama to Alliance Headquarters without any further delay.
"Your...Tsunade...?" Hashirama wondered why Sasuke called Tsunade as he owned her as Sasuke's clone teleported him to the Headquarters.
"Now that he is gone, hand me over the Yin half of 9-Tails," Sasuke said as he ordered Minato to give him his half of Kurama to him.
"How did you know that I have it?" Minato asked in confusion. He was sure that only he and Kushina knew about him separating the Tailed Beast and sealing it inside himself.
"I don't have enough time to explain. Give me your half so we can go to the battlefield" Sasuke said as Minato reluctantly pulled out his hand and transferred his half of Kurama to him.
"Yo, my other half." The Yang half of Kurama, who was inside Sasuke, welcomed his Ying half to Gluttony's stomach.
"You have become much stronger," The Yin half said as it merged back with the Yang half.
"Now that the 9-Tails is safe. It's time to beat Madara and end this stupid war" Sasuke said as he explained to Minato about his target and teleported back to the battlefield to fight Madara.
....
"Jiraya-Sensei, stop it. Why are you killing our ninjas?" Naruto said as he attracted Jiraya's attention who was in his Imperfect Sage Mode.
"Naruto?"Jiraya stopped after hearing his student and turned around to see him standing with strange pigment in his eyes.
"You mastered Sage Mode?" Jiraya was surprised to see his student using the perfect Sage Mode unlike him. He felt that his student had succeeded him already.
"Jiraya-Sensei. What happened to you? And why didn't you return to the village?" Naruto said with some tears in his eyes and tried to approach him.
"Naruto....I got killed by Pain. Now I'm just an undead ninja who is killing on Kabuto's orders. You must evade this attack" Jiraya said as he attacked Naruto after telling him about his situation and the fact that he can't stop himself from killing due to Edo Tensei's caster orders.
Naruto, on the other hand, effortlessly dodged Jiraya's attack and stepped back. This Naruto was a bit different than before. He had a lot of experience (of losing) against Sasuke's clones so he was much stronger than before.
However, this battle with his master was the only battle he was going to fight since the upcoming battles were completely out of his league.
....
"Is it that fence sitter brat?" Madara said as he watched the battle of the two Dust Release users from afar.
While Madara was watching the battle between Onoki and Mu reach the climax, their defense was blitzed by Raikage, who came to scold his brother.
"Bee stop this nonsense and come back. Stop siding with that Madara guy," Raikage shouted, which annoyed Madara.
"I have waited enough. It's time to end this foolish war" Madara said as he jumped down and decided to warm up before eradicating the entirety of the Shinobi Alliance.
"Here he comes" someone shouted as the allies saw Madara running towards them.
