Reborn as Danzō’s Grandson, Must I Offend the Entire Ninja World?

"Sage Art: Planetary Rasenshuriken!"

Above the vast ocean, a huge golden fox held a wildly spinning spiral shuriken and threw it with force.

Opposite him, there was also a golden giant, but the difference was that this giant had three arms, and every two arms rubbed out a deep black, high-density chakra sphere.

Three chakra spheres were thrown out at the same time, violently colliding with the spiral shuriken.

A terrifying wave of energy erupted.

The raging sea surged, creating enormous waves that connected with the horizon. Then, a vortex over a hundred meters deep appeared. Its rotation triggered countless tornadoes that swirled above the sea.

The two giants clashed again.

This time, Ashura took the attacks from Naruto and Kurama at the cost of losing one energy arm.

On the mainland, Sasuke and Indra had already reached the Land of Earth.

The two fought from ninjutsu to taijutsu, and later directly activated their giant forms.

The Land of Earth is mountainous.

Originally, the mountains stretched endlessly, but wherever the two giant forms passed, the mountains were cut apart and rivers were diverted.

Thick dark clouds gathered and rolled in the sky, sending down bolts of lightning, which were shattered by the shockwaves from the fight between the two.

Looking closely, one would notice that Sasuke's Susanoo was actually a head shorter than Indra's, around 20 to 30 meters in height.

This also meant that Sasuke's eye power was slightly weaker than Indra's.

There was nothing to be done, as Indra had the purest bloodline of the Sage of Six Paths. Even with Impure World Reincarnation preventing him from using his full power, he could still overpower Sasuke, a descendant separated from him by dozens of generations.

Speaking of which, Uchiha Madara and Sasuke are probably the two most miserable reincarnations of Indra.

Over the past thousand years, if Ashura wanted to fight Indra, he always needed the help of others. If they fought one-on-one, Ashura would actually be at a disadvantage.

This was reflected in history by the fact that the Senju clan always had more allies than the Uchiha clan.

For example, the Uzumaki clan, the Hatake clan, and the Sarutobi clan had been allies with the Senju for generations.

Sometimes even the Hyuga clan would stand on the Senju side.

The Uchiha only had one major allied clan, the Hagoromo clan, so fighting one against many became their normal situation.

But when Senju Hashirama appeared, everything changed subtly.

Every time Uchiha Madara gained new power, he was suppressed by Senju Hashirama. He had Susanoo, while the other side had a wooden dragon. He had a complete form, the ultimate Susanoo like a war god, but the other side had a wooden dragon.

After gaining Kurama, he combined Kurama's power to create a stronger Susanoo, but Hashirama created a True Several Thousand Hands with a Buddha on top, suppressing him from beginning to end.

Sasuke's situation was similar.

Although Naruto did not know Wood Release, he had already communicated with Kurama and had become a perfect Jinchūriki, a super warrior with high attack and high defense, surpassing the usual Ashura reincarnation.

Although Sasuke had obtained the Rinnegan, its main use was to manipulate the Ten Tails and become the Ten Tails Jinchūriki, rather than for combat.

Just like now, after activating the giant form, abilities like Shinra Tensei and Bansho Ten'in were useless. It was simply a dream to launch a perfect Susanoo over 100 meters tall.

So, unlike Naruto who was suppressing Ashura, Sasuke could only be suppressed by Indra.

Sasuke now regretted pretending to be cool earlier. He should have let Yuji help him; things would definitely be easier.

What made Sasuke even more uncomfortable was Indra's constant taunting.

He finally understood the feelings of those enemies he used to mock.

"A piece of trash like you actually possesses my chakra?"

"Even with Ashura's aura, your chakra is so low. If I had your body, how could I end up dying in a stalemate with him? Stop embarrassing me."

"Idiot, why waste so much chakra when you can't even hit me!"

Indra never stopped talking, and it was really infuriating.

He saw Naruto on the other side of the sea beating Ashura, while Sasuke was getting beaten by him. Did that mean this generation's chakra host was not as good as his younger brother?

This was absolutely something Indra could not accept.

So at the beginning, Indra was still being controlled by Orochimaru to attack Sasuke, but later, he simply acted on his own out of anger.

On the battlefield, after the initial panic caused by White Zetsu's sneak attack, Konoha's forces began to stabilize and gradually counterattack.

The combat power of White Zetsu alone was not very high, at most on the level of a Chunin.

The difficulty of White Zetsu lay in its ability to absorb chakra and its incredible camouflage. Apart from Naruto's malicious intent sensing, even the Byakugan could not detect them.

But Black Zetsu had no time to set up ambushes or replace people, so White Zetsu could only act as cannon fodder or as chakra replenishment for the Elite Jonin of the Allied Forces.

If not for them, Ōnoki and Terumi Mei's chakra would have been exhausted several times.

When Yuichi and the others ran out of chakra, medical-nin would replenish them immediately, ensuring that there were always three or four half-body Crow Tengu Susanoo on the battlefield to hold the line.

Orochimaru was also amazed at Konoha's fighting strength.

He said to Hiruzen, who was being beaten by Shisui, "Sensei, do you see that?"

"This is what a Hokage should be like. If you were in charge of Konoha, you wouldn't even be able to stop the Allied Shinobi Forces, let alone two villages working together."

Hiruzen was ashamed and angry, shouting at Orochimaru, "This is not Shimura's achievement, it's because of those Uchiha!"

Orochimaru smiled even more contemptuously. "Then you should reflect on yourself. Why could you not tolerate Uchiha, but Yami can make Uchiha work for him? Doesn't this show the difference in ability?"

Hiruzen was so shamed by these sharp words that he could not refute them.

Boom—!

Shisui, who had been fighting using Body Flicker Technique and normal ninjutsu, suddenly erupted. His green skeletal arm slapped away the normal ninjutsu like swatting flies, and grabbed Hiruzen in his hand.

"That's enough."

Shisui showed no signs of strain, not even sweating. He looked calmly at Hiruzen and said, "Third Hokage, the biggest difference between you and Yami is not strength, but the control over people's hearts.

"Even if Yami did not have the power he has today, we would willingly die for him, just based on what he did to help Uchiha.

"Of course, it was also thanks to your secret schemes that our clan had the opportunity to be reborn from the ashes."

Although the person who took his eyes and forced him to jump off the cliff was Danzō.

But the true mastermind behind this was actually Hiruzen.

Without Hiruzen, how could Danzō know the secret of Kotoamatsukami?

"Shisui! Be careful!"

Two beams of golden light crossed the battlefield. Wherever they met, they collided and then turned into light streams that dissipated again.

"Now!"

Tobirama suddenly appeared between Hiruzen and Shisui, and just as he steadied himself, Minato appeared with a Rasengan in his hand.

Just as the Rasengan was about to touch Tobirama, Shisui's eyes suddenly widened.

Genjutsu: Kotoamatsukami!

Minato's body stiffened for a moment, then immediately disappeared and reappeared not far away.

He pressed the Rasengan into the ground, creating a large crater.

"Did it work?" asked Tobirama.

Shisui nodded, and released the skeletal hand holding Hiruzen. "The control over the Fourth Hokage and the Third Hokage has been lifted."

Tobirama was very satisfied. "As expected of the strongest genjutsu genius of the Uchiha clan. Well done."

"Thank you for the compliment." Shisui smiled awkwardly and glanced at Hikari inconspicuously.

If this had been before the appearance of Hikari, Shisui, though modest, would not have thought much of it.

But compared to Eight Thousand Spears, his Kotoamatsukami still felt lacking.

"Second Hokage, I'm really sorry about what just happened."

Minato scratched his head sheepishly and walked over. He had regained control of his body.

"It's nothing."

Tobirama also admired Minato. "Your Body Flicker Technique is stronger than mine, and you created a jutsu like the Rasengan that pairs perfectly with it, but it's a pity that you died too soon."

"Compared to the Second Hokage, I still have a long way to go."

Though he was a reanimated body, Minato's smile was as warm as the sun. "When I first learned Flying Thunder God, your understanding of space amazed me. I didn't expect Summoning Techniques could be expanded like this."

"Hahaha!"

Tobirama laughed happily. Flattery feels different depending on who says it. Only when flattered by someone outstanding like Minato would he be pleased. If it were Naruto...

"Tobirama-sama"

Hiruzen, who had regained his freedom, also came over, listened to the conversation, and called out softly to remind them of his presence.

"Why are you still standing here?" Tobirama looked at him with disdain. "Can't you see that the village ninjas are fighting hard? Why don't you go and help them!"

"Yes, yes."

Hiruzen did not dare to act arrogant in front of Tobirama, and had to honestly fight against the Allied Forces.

Tobirama continued, "Shisui, Minato, you go deal with Orochimaru and force him to cancel the Impure World Reincarnation. I'll go check the situation with Yami."

"Lava Release: Lava Waterfall!"

A massive amount of hot magma poured from the sky, filling the air with the strong smell of sulfur.

Crack, crack—!

The blue Susanoo raised its hands, its arms combining into a shield that blocked all the magma, but dense cracks appeared.

Whoosh!

Two more arms appeared out of thin air, holding huge swords and slashing forward.

A green ball of light flew up from behind Yami. There was an exaggerated size difference between them, but the light curtain emitted by the ball firmly blocked the giant sword that could split mountains and seas.

The huge waves generated by the collision overturned everything around.

In the end, Susanoo's giant sword was blown out of its hands, landing in the distant mountains and causing an earthquake.

The blue light slowly dissipated.

"Interesting."

Madara was wary in his heart, but he still spoke arrogantly. "In terms of combat capability, the Tenseigan is indeed superior to the Rinnegan, but condensing these orbs consumes a lot of chakra, doesn't it?"

"Since the beginning of the battle, the number of orbs behind you has dropped from six to two. As long as we keep fighting, I will still be the final winner."

"Is this your strategy?"

Yami smiled slightly. "Just now you were lecturing me, but now that you realize you can't win, you're using the advantage of Impure World Reincarnation to drag out the fight?"

"This low-level provocation won't work on me."

Madara crossed his arms and was not angry.

"This is war. I will use all means to win. As for the process? It doesn't matter.

After saying that, Madara revealed a mysterious smile. "But you guessed wrong. I have more important things to accomplish, and wasting time with you is not a wise choice.

"Once Uzumaki Naruto and Sasuke are free, I have to admit that the situation will become troublesome."

"So… I'll just have to find a helper."

Standing in the cockpit of Susanoo, Madara quickly formed hand seals.

"Summoning Technique!"

A wooden coffin appeared, and before the lid was opened, Madara excitedly smashed the coffin to pieces, revealing Senju Hashirama, still sleeping inside.

"Yami, this is a surprise I prepared for you, and also for Hashirama!"

"In order to let him see firsthand the situation of Konoha invading other ninja villages, I've been forcing myself not to wake him up! Hahahaha!"

As Madara laughed wildly, Senju Hashirama gradually regained consciousness and began to mutter.

"Impure World Reincarnation again? Tobirama, look at the mess your Forbidden Technique has caused. This body is great… almost as good as my original body."

Madara's laughter froze.

This guy had been babbling nonstop since coming out. Did he not notice Madara's presence?

Finally, when Hashirama started talking about Orochimaru, Madara could no longer stand it and shouted:

"Hashirama! You idiot, at least see who summoned you!"

"MADARA?!"

Senju Hashirama was shocked and only then noticed his condition.

He was in Susanoo's cockpit?

"Brother!!"

At this moment, a golden light rushed over and landed beside Yami.

Hashirama looked toward the voice, and a simple smile appeared on his face. He waved excitedly.

"Tobirama, you're here this time too. I kind of regretted that Orochimaru didn't summon you when he killed Sarutobi!"
