Chapter 124 The First Hokage's Entrustment
The convergence of two forces...
Gold and blue, life and destruction, two forces representing the pinnacle of the ninja world, collided fiercely at the core of the Four Purple Flame Formation!
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
Immediately following, a devastating energy storm erupted!
A massive, blinding sphere of light instantly expanded!
It surpasses the brightness of the sun!
Inside the sphere of light, there was pure, extreme energy annihilation and rampant chaos!
The golden Wood Release chakra and the dark blue Susanoo power tore, devoured, and exploded wildly!
Snap! Snap snap snap—!!!
The forbidden barrier known as the Four Purple Flame Array, capable of isolating everything.
Faced with this destructive force that exceeded its limits, it was as fragile as a soap bubble blown by a child!
The transparent barrier wall, burning with ominous purple flames, lasted for less than half a second before becoming covered with spiderweb-like cracks.
Then, with a desperate groan, it exploded with a deafening roar!
Countless burning purple fragments scattered and flew like meteors!
The destructive torrent has lost its last restraint!
boom--! ! ! !
The terrifying shockwave exploded in a spherical shape, like divine punishment!
The incredibly sturdy roof of the martial arts altar was instantly ripped away and shattered by this force, like thin ice being hit by a boulder!
The massive reinforced concrete structure was torn apart like paper and thrown high into the air!
The stands, the athletes' tunnel, the massive load-bearing pillars... everything crumbled like a sandcastle under this impact!
Smoke and dust, mixed with gravel and metal fragments, swept up everything below like a tsunami!
The entire Martial Arts Altar, this magnificent building that has witnessed countless Chunin matches.
In Madara and Hashirama's final, time-defying attack, it was completely wiped off the map, turning into a huge, smoke-filled, dust-laden crater!
Just as the destructive shockwave was about to engulf everything!
A golden flash streaked across the sky.
"Flying Thunder God!"
Minato (Shadow Clone) grabbed the Third Hokage's arm and simultaneously hurled a specially made kunai far away from the epicenter of the explosion!
The two figures vanished instantly, leaving only a faint ripple in the air.
The next second, they appeared on the top of a relatively intact tower several hundred meters away.
Almost as soon as they disappeared, a devastating torrent engulfed the spot where they had just stood!
"Ahem... Thank you, Minato."
The third generation coughed violently, his face pale, looking down at the apocalyptic pit below, still shaken.
If it weren't for Minato's incredible speed, he would have had no chance of survival.
On the other hand, Orochimaru wasn't so lucky.
He was closer to the explosion's epicenter and was at a crucial moment in performing his skin-shedding technique, so he had no time to react!
The devastating shockwave was about to engulf him completely!
"Lord Orochimaru!!!"
Sakon and Ukon, two of the Sound Four, let out a shrill scream!
They were severely injured and on the verge of death when the barrier shattered.
At this moment, he unleashed his last bit of strength, recklessly lunging towards Orochimaru with his body!
Kidomaru, Jirobo, and Tayuya also struggled, using their remaining chakra to create a fragile defensive barrier in front of them!
puff!puff!puff!
Flesh and blood are like bubbles in the face of destructive impact!
The left and right sides were instantly torn into a bloody mist!
Kidomaru, Jirobo, and Tayuya's barrier shattered like paper, and the three were violently thrown away by the shockwave.
They crashed into the distant ruins like tattered sacks, their fate unknown!
But the insignificant moment they gained with their lives allowed Orochimaru to complete his final molt!
"Ugh—!"
Accompanied by a muffled groan of pain.
A white snake shadow, shrunk several times its original size and its aura extremely weak.
Covered in a pool of foul-smelling slime and tattered human skin, it shot out from the edge of the explosion like an arrow.
It vanished instantly into the shadows of the ruins.
All that remained were the lingering stench of blood and burnt flesh in the air, and the mangled limbs of the Sound Four, telling the story of their tragic end in loyalty to their lord.
Orochimaru escaped with his life, but he clearly paid a heavy price, barely clinging to life with only half a life left.
The smoke and dust of destruction slowly settled, and the scene at the center of the deep pit gradually became clear.
The giant wooden figure had long since vanished, leaving behind only charred charcoal and a deep crater.
Hashirama Senju's impure body was almost completely shattered in that earth-shattering clash.
It is currently undergoing a difficult rebuilding process, with the filth and dust slowly gathering together.
The outline of his upper body was barely visible, appearing extremely ethereal and unstable.
Madara's Susanoo also dissipated.
Naruto stood on the edge of the deep pit, slightly out of breath, and the rotation of his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan seemed a little dim.
That attack just now almost exhausted the Nine-Tails chakra stored in Naruto's body, which he controlled, as well as his own spiritual power.
Minato (Shadow Clone) teleported with the Third Hokage once again, appearing at the edge of the deep pit and landing next to Naruto (Madara).
His shadow clones also appeared somewhat transparent, clearly indicating a huge drain on his energy.
The three looked at the pillar at the bottom of the pit, which was struggling to rebuild itself.
"It's now!"
Minato (Shadow Clone)'s eyes narrowed, and his hands quickly formed a complex and profound hand seal!
"Sealing Technique: Four Symbols Sealing!"
A circular magic circle composed of black runes instantly appeared below Minato's palm, emitting a powerful suction and binding force!
Several black and white chakra chains shot out from the magic circle like serpents, precisely wrapping around Hashirama's impure body that was not yet fully formed!
Hashirama did not resist, or rather, his impure state made it impossible for him to resist.
He looked at the sealing chains that were wrapping around him, then looked up at the Third Hokage, Minato, and Madara's Eternal Kaleidoscope Sharingan at the edge of the pit.
His gaze lingered for a moment on the three generations of aged yet still upright spine.
His gaze swept over Shuimen's young, handsome, and energetic face.
Finally, he gazed deeply into those scarlet eyes, the eyes of his lifelong friend and nemesis.
Amidst the dust-shrouded ruins, a sense of relief and contentment slowly surfaced on Hashirama Senju's face.
Even a complex smile carrying a hint of expectation.
His body, bound by the sealing chains, began to dissipate rapidly, turning into specks of shimmering dust.
"Sarutobi...the Fourth Hokage..."
His voice became ethereal and gentle, yet clearly reached the ears of everyone present.
Finally, his gaze settled on Naruto (Madara), as if penetrating Naruto's body and seeing that familiar soul.
Hashirama's voice carried a subtle hint of emotion and entrustment, "And... everyone..."
The light dust dispersed faster, and Hashirama's figure grew fainter, but his final words were imprinted in the air with unparalleled clarity:
"The children of Konoha... the... future of Konoha..."
"I'm leaving it to you..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the last speck of light drifted away with the wind.
The God of Shinobi, Hashirama Senju, was completely sealed away.
What remains is a bottomless pit and ruins of broken walls.
And that weighty, trusting, and expectant entrustment lingered long after the smoke of battle had cleared.
At the edge of the deep pit, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, gazed at the spot where Hashirama had disappeared, his aged eyes slightly moist, and nodded forcefully.
Minato Namikaze (Shadow Clone) had a solemn expression, his azure eyes filled with determination.
Madara, however, simply gazed at the emptiness with his crimson kaleidoscope eyes, remaining silent for a moment.
Finally, it let out a barely perceptible, ambiguous hum.
Chapter 125 The Stinky Fox & The Stupid Raccoon
The Konoha Crush Plan.
This was a conspiracy launched by Orochimaru, the leader of the Sound Village, in alliance with the Sand Village, with the aim of destroying the foundation of Konoha.
It ultimately ended in complete failure.
Orochimaru in the final battle on the roof of the martial arts altar.
