"The difference in strength is too great."
"If Madara Uchiha had a physical body."
["There is a true Rinnegan."]
"Perhaps Grandpa had already lost."
"If I remember correctly... Madara Uchiha bit his finger just now because he was thinking of another way to fight, instead of using a smaller version of the True Several Thousand Hands, right?"
It's almost done.
Naruto simply stood up and stretched.
There is still much to be done.
Our time here is almost up.
[Keep watching.]
It was basically just mindless hand-to-hand combat.
In fact.
Madara Uchiha still has an advantage thanks to his reanimated body.
[Hashirama Senju, because he was in such a hurry.]
[I only managed to create one Wood Release: Wood Clone Technique power bank.]
[Completely insufficient.]
In addition.
Madara Uchiha seems to have done this intentionally.
[Now. ]
[Let Hashirama Senju experience it too.]
[Fighting.]
[There was also the feeling of having my chakra being absorbed by the opponent.]
Back then.
Madara Uchiha dared not be careless when facing Wood Release.
[After being caught, my chakra decreased significantly.]
[Now. ]
Madara Uchiha not only retaliated against his best friend with this Wood Release technique.
[They even responded using the Preta Path ability of the Rinnegan, the fruit of their union.]
Pure Land World.
Madara Uchiha's expression was rather unpleasant.
Hashirama Senju, on the other hand, kept laughing heartily.
The narration on this large, black-framed screen...
That's hilarious!
On the other side.
Mito Uzumaki's eyes were tightly closed.
I seem too lazy to look at these.
The women whispered among themselves.
Mito's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
What nonsense is Kushina spouting again?
Forget about Hashirama Senju, I'll just hang out with Naruto (with black frames) and help with the reconstruction...
"I think you're asking for trouble, aren't you?!"
"No...Mito-neechan...Mito-neechan~"
"I was wrong!"
"Mikoto, come quick, save Mommy!"
Mikoto Uchiha: "???!!!"
"You're asking for it!"
Mito Uzumaki grabbed Kushina Uzumaki's ear.
The two started playfully fighting, and both had red hair.
They really do look like sisters.
Soon, Uchiha Mikoto also joined the "battle".
At this moment.
After a long silence, Uchiha Izumi suddenly opened her eyes.
"I see!"
"I see!"
"A way to leave this Pure Land right now!"
"Aunt Kushina and Aunt Mikoto, you both have physical bodies."
"You can go out directly."
"You can go out even without a physical body!"
Uchiha Izumi had barely finished speaking.
Mito Uzumaki straightened her posture and said:
"Let's try Naruto's method with black frames; maybe that will allow us to temporarily regain our physical bodies."
As she spoke, Mito Uzumaki lightly tapped Mikoto Uchiha and Kushina Uzumaki on their smooth, white foreheads.
"Okay, stop fooling around."
"I have a very strong premonition."
"It's almost time."
"Black-framed Naruto... After thoroughly understanding the secrets of Black Zetsu, it will be time for him to explore the world of Kamui Tsukuyomi."
"At that time, after confirming the parallel world, it will soon descend upon our golden-framed world."
Kushina Uzumaki tilted her head, momentarily unable to react.
Will I ever be able to see my incredibly successful son in this black-framed world?
Mikoto Uchiha's pupils suddenly contracted.
"Mito-neechan...cough cough, Mito-neechan, have you noticed too?"
Mito Uzumaki nodded slightly.
She tilted her snow-white neck back.
Looking at the black-framed Naruto Uzumaki on the large black-framed screen above.
Her beautiful eyes sparkled with an unusual light.
"That child... is terrifying."
"He used very subtle body language to convey some messages to us."
"It seems they want to confirm whether this is a parallel world, and whether they are watching him."
"And none of this was detected by the viewing system."
"Or perhaps... the viewing system noticed it, but didn't pay attention to it."
"Its purpose is simply to let us, in this golden-framed world, watch movies..."
...
The large screen with its black border continues to display the image:
Not long after.
[The ground beneath the feet of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.]
A huge crater has appeared.
[Hashirama Senju's Sengoku-era armor was knocked away.]
[Clothes were tattered.]
[Holding a ninja sword.]
[He was panting heavily.]
Looking at his best buddy in front of him.
[And Uchiha Madara.]
[He then smiled slightly as he looked at Hashirama Senju.]
[The truth.]
[Right now, killing Hashirama Senju would be as simple as a thought for him.]
The gap is too big.
Even without considering the Rinnegan.
[Hashirama Senju would also be facing Madara Uchiha, who was nearing his peak.]
[And... half of myself.]
[Hashirama Senju's physical body was enhanced.]
[but. ]
Numerically, the difference might not be so significant.
However, the gap in ability is obvious.
For example, the Wood Release's ability to absorb chakra.
Even if Madara Uchiha didn't use the Preta Path ability of the Rinnegan.
[His ability to absorb chakra using Wood Release alone is stronger than Hashirama Senju's Wood Release.]
Even without consciously using the power of the Rinnegan.
But the influence is subtle and intangible.
Madara Uchiha's Wood Release was enhanced by the Rinnegan.
"It's over, Hashi's hot mom."
"This time, I won."
[Upon hearing this.]
Hashirama Senju closed his eyes.
He shook his head with a wry smile.
"I lost."
[Having said that.]
He simply threw away the ninja sword in his hand.
He plopped down on the ground.
"Madara."
"I can't beat you."
"But someone can beat you."
Madara Uchiha, who had been smiling, suddenly stopped smiling.
Because this wasn't something Hashirama Senju said casually.
He looked up at the sky.
"It's about time."
"Hash, the hot mom."
"I can't let you go."
"We need to speed things up."
The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path is still in the ninja world.
After finding out Black Zetsu's location, he will go and retrieve it.
Then they immediately began collecting the tailed beasts.
As for Obito Uchiha.
[Still useful for now.]
[Send him to retrieve the Rinnegan, with Black Zetsu following.]
[At a critical moment.]
[First, let Nagato Uzumaki use Rinne Rebirth to revive himself.]
Judging from Obito Uchiha's abilities, that good-for-nothing...
In terms of time, I had roughly collected all eight tailed beasts except for the Nine-Tails.
Madara Uchiha was confident in this.
[at last. ]
[Use the Gedo Mazo to 'revive' the Ten-Tails.]
[He became the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki.]
[So. ]
Everything has settled down.
The ending was predetermined from the very beginning.
[Madara Uchiha seemed somewhat anxious.]
Hashirama Senju paused for a moment.
[Then he laughed heartily.]
"Looks like you've already guessed who it is."
Madara Uchiha remained silent.
Instead, they silently stepped forward.
"Time to go, Hashi's hot mom."
"You will witness this defeated ninja world disappear."
[As he spoke, he grabbed Hashirama Senju by the neck with one hand.]
[Beginning chakra absorption.]
Hashirama Senju glanced at Madara Uchiha's chest, at his own face.
[A slight upturn at the corner of his mouth.]
"I forgot to tell you, he's also my granddaughter's husband."
Madara Uchiha: "???"
"Naruto, Grandpa can't beat him anymore."
"Come quick, help me!"
