Chapter 284: How Do You Know That Too?
After teasing Madara, Masahiko's expression became thoughtful.
He wasn't surprised that Danzo had secretly learned Edo Tensei. After all, when Tobirama developed this ninjutsu, Danzo served as his experimental assistant; it would be weirder if he didn't learn it.
But the key point was... why was Danzo resisting so suicidally?
He couldn't possibly be unaware of the battle from yesterday evening. With over a dozen Anbu present, Masahiko didn't believe not a single one was Danzo's subordinate.
He should know that even reanimating Madara wouldn't stop Masahiko, yet he still did it... This was a bit bizarre.
While Masahiko was thinking, Madara spoke up on the other side: "The caster this time isn't the same person, is it? I remember you, you're the disciple of that bastard Tobirama Senju, the brat named Danzo Shimura."
Danzo didn't reply to him. He had absolutely no goodwill toward the Uchiha clan, especially Madara Uchiha. Instead, he turned to Masahiko and spoke loudly.
"Elder Masahiko! Everything this old man has done was for Konoha! You actually intend to let a little girl humiliate me. Today, even if I have to make a deal with the devil, I will teach you a lesson!"
Masahiko frowned. "Who are you calling 'old man' in front of me! And what 'deal with the devil'..."
Madara ignored Danzo's disrespect and slowly clenched his fists. "My power... is recovering."
"He released the suppression on Madara's power. It seems he doesn't plan to control him, letting him act freely..."
Masahiko looked up. "Teaching me a lesson through this? You really have courage..."
The next instant, Masahiko appeared right in front of Danzo. "First, ask my sandbag-sized fist!"
A giant blue arm suddenly thrust between Masahiko and Danzo, blocking Masahiko's fist.
To the side, Madara laughed.
"Old geezer, I can't let you kill him right now. Once my power recovers, I'll let you experience my... sandbag-sized fist!"
Madara had successfully learned the phrase.
Masahiko smiled. His right arm suddenly exerted more force, and he shoved Madara's Susanoo arm right into Danzo's face.
"You can't stop me from beating whoever I want!"
Watching Danzo tumble and fly backward, Masahiko repeated the action above...
Thus, the subsequent process was: Masahiko flashed and punched, Madara intercepted, Danzo defended, and then Danzo got "smacked in the face" by Masahiko.
This went on for two minutes until Madara stopped interfering. "My power has recovered to near peak condition. Old geezer, since you want to kill him so badly, let me help you!"
Hearing this, Masahiko looked at the dying Danzo lying on the ground with a face full of lumps. Satisfied, he turned his head, glanced at Madara, and suddenly showed a surprised expression.
"Hashirama, why are you here too?!"
Madara was stunned and instantly turned his head. Behind him was empty space. He immediately realized something was wrong, and his eyes shifted to the Rinnegan.
"Shinra Tensei!" (Almighty Push)
Behind Madara, Masahiko floated in mid-air, his right hand formed into a claw, a mere half-meter away from the back of Madara's head.
Looking at the transparent repulsive force dome that had formed before him, Masahiko smiled faintly. "Think you're the only one who knows this?"
Focusing his mind slightly, the repulsive force dome shattered layer by layer. Masahiko's hand clamped tightly onto the back of Madara's head, and he dragged him forward in a high-speed flight. If they kept fighting here, Danzo really would die...
Masahiko was still somewhat baffled by Danzo's sudden suicidal move...
"Bastard!" Madara was about to explode from anger.
Earlier, Danzo had chosen to walk and talk, moving about three kilometers away from the Konoha camp, likely worried that the shockwaves from Masahiko and Madara's clash would hit the camp.
"But this distance is far from enough!"
Masahiko flew at top speed. In just a few seconds, he dragged Madara far away from the Konoha camp and approached the Hidden Cloud Village camp.
"Go down!" Masahiko swung his right arm, hurling Madara downward, smashing a human-shaped crater into the ground.
This location was about a kilometer away from the Cloud Village camp. Because of Killer Bee, Masahiko didn't plan to annihilate the Cloud Village; giving them a little intimidation was enough. At the same time, he could announce that the Great Demon King Masahiko had returned!
Such a huge commotion naturally reached the Cloud Village camp. At this moment, many ninjas were rushing over.
But the next second, the earth split open.
Like a cataclysmic earthquake, centered around the crater Madara had just smashed, the land within a one-kilometer radius instantly disintegrated. The Cloud Village camp was also affected by the shockwaves—tents collapsed, ninjas fell into the "fissures"... It was complete chaos.
The familiar Tengu-shaped Perfect Susanoo slowly rose from underground, accompanied by Madara Uchiha's shout: "Old geezer, are these petty tricks all you can do!"
Masahiko looked up, shook his head, and sighed. "To think you'd even fall for such a low-level petty trick..."
"Your love for Hashirama truly is deep!"
Inside the Susanoo giant, Madara's face flushed red as he recalled Masahiko's two "masterpieces" from back then.
Masahiko continued to add fuel to the fire. "Speaking of which, Madara, I've always wanted to ask you: in your heart, who is more important, Hashirama or Izuna?"
"Old geezer, today is your death day!"
In Madara's heart at this moment, Masahiko was clearly the most important one.
A burly man cloaked in lightning suddenly appeared before Madara. "You bastard! You dare attack the village's camp... Lariat!"
"Get lost!" Madara roared loudly. The Susanoo giant's right fist clenched and smashed directly onto the Fourth Raikage.
Nothing could stop the "Madara Acceleration." A (Ay) flew toward the ruined Cloud Village camp even faster than he came.
"Brother!" Nearby, Killer Bee's shout echoed.
Masahiko locked his eyes firmly onto him, recalling the "Yo Yo Yo" version of Nagato. Speaking of which, that was a pain he would carry for life...
"Bee, run! Those two are Masahiko Uzumaki and Madara Uchiha!" Inside Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails warned him.
"I'll send you to reunite with your brother!"
Masahiko instantly appeared behind Killer Bee. Ignoring the Eight-Tails' tentacles that suddenly extended out, he planted a kick squarely on his butt.
"My 'Masahiko Acceleration' cannot lose to the 'Madara Acceleration'. Catch up to the Fourth Raikage! Killer Bee!"
Watching Killer Bee fly away, Masahiko shouted loudly. The next second, a bone spur extended from his right hand, and he thrust it upward. The Susanoo fist Madara had just smashed down slowly disintegrated.
Madara's expression grew solemn. "Not even the Perfect Susanoo can touch that bone spur?"
Masahiko smiled warmly, waving the bone spur in his hand, and said, "Madara, didn't you realize yesterday that there is already a qualitative gap between us?"
"Yesterday?!" Madara's face darkened. He thought many days had passed.
"That's right, just yesterday. With all sorts of annoying things happening recently, my mood hasn't been very good. But speaking of which, beating you up once a day makes me feel much better..."
"Since I can't touch him..." Madara didn't reply, slowly releasing the Susanoo. "Then close combat isn't suitable! I'll use Hashirama's power..."
"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!"
Masahiko smiled, retracting the bone spur into his hand, and formed hand seals. "Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!"
Madara was stunned. "Old geezer..."
How the f** do you know that too!*
