Hokage Ryo’s Path Chapter 531

As the ninja coalition began its operations, Uchiha Madara’s side also discussed whether to wake up Jibuu first.
“Madara-sama, I don’t think we can drag on any longer. We’re not good enough to fight the ninja coalition right now. We need Bijuu.” Otsutsuki Momoshiki spoke out his opinion directly.
“That’s right. Since the Ninja Coalition has gathered the power of the Five Great Ninja Villages, there are many experts even if we don’t necessarily win over Yamanaka Ryo.” Obito lightly said.
Hearing this, Madara recalled the previous battle with Ryo, the use of Ryo’s special Hyoton, especially after integrating into Rinnegan’s eye power. Yamanaka Ryo can freeze even space.
Recalling this, Madara was taken aback. He hesitated for a moment and asked White Ztesu, “Did your Body Clone use Senju Hashirama?”
“Seeing that Hashirama fought against Yamanaka Suzune and then was sealed by her… It seems that after the Edo Tensei was lifted, Hashirama broke free from Edo Tensei restraints and now has joined forces with Ninja.”
“So, Hashirama is also here? How troublesome. It looks like I can only revive Juubi. Obito, let’s get ready!”
“I understood.”
Obito moved towards Gedo Mazo.
Otsutsuki Momoshiki stopped Obito, “Wait a minute. This forest is too dense. Let me clean it up first!”
After saying that, Momoshiki walked outside, he floated into the air, and the red aperture behind him flew in front of Rinnegan, and then a red light flashed across a forest.
The forest had been broken down into molecules.
“It’s much better now that it’s wider. The enemy will not be able to hide. Now, we can start!”
Obito went outside, summoning Gedo Mazo. He threw chakra of Kyuubi, which was stripped from the gold-and-silver horn, into Gedo Mazo’s mouth.
Gedo Mazo’s closed eyes suddenly opened, and the huge body began to tremble.
With a lament, the life force of Gedo Mazo and Bijuu chakra began to Merge.
…..
At the same time, in the coalition headquarters, Yamanaka Inoichi has received responses from various brigades. Except for Namikaze Minato’s brigade, the coalition’s other forces have not suffered many casualties.
Most of the casualties were caused by White Zetsu disguised as coalition Ninjas and did sneak attack with Henge no Jutsu.
For that matter, Yamanaka Ryo had sent Naruto’s Shadow Clone Jutsu to various battlefields to solve the White Zetsu problem.
As for Naruto’s main body, Ryo sent him and Sasuke along with Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama to the forest that Ryo mentioned before.
Originally, Tobirama left Flying Thunder God Imprint in the forest to teleport at any time. However, just now, he found that his imprint was erased. Therefore, the four people had no choice but to run there.
……
On the way, Naruto and Senju Hashirama talked a lot. Hashiarama found Naruto to be very kind, and he always wanted to talk to him more. He also found that Naruto’s beliefs and himself were exactly the same, which made Hashirama even more excited.
Meanwhile, Senju Tobirama asked Sasuke about what happened in Konoha over the years and what Uchiha is like now.
Originally, Sasuke didn’t want to talk about what happened to the Uchiha clan, but Senju Tobirama is Konoha’s Nidaime Hokage; he is Konoha’s legendary Ninja and should be given some respect. So, despite his reluctance, Sasuke still talked about Konoha’s matters over the years.
After hearing that Uchiha was fully integrated into Konoha, Tobirama frowned, but he didn’t say much. However, he couldn’t help but ask when Sasuke mentioned Hyuga Clan, “Why should the Hyuga Clan’s Branch House System be lifted? What kind of nonsense Yamanaka Ryo pulled.”
Senju Tobirama’s voice was not small, and Senju Hashirama and Naruto immediately noticed it.
“What’s wrong with the lift of Hyuga Clan’s Branch House System? Everyone is a village companion, and there’s no need….”
Hashirama didn’t finish his words; Tobirama quickly cut his words, “Big brother, you’re so naïve! The Hyuga Clan is different from the Uchiha Clan, and their Byakugan eyesight is too powerful. –Initially, the Hyuga Clan had a Branch House System made so that their clan wouldn’t be able to resolve their internal contradictions. Such a clan should never be single-minded, so they will not pose any threat to the village…
But once the Branch House System is lifted, the internal contradictions of the Hyuga Clan will be eased, and their people will unite. The strength of the clan will also expand. Such a clan is easy to become a big clan and gives birth to ideas that should not have, and they would pose threats to Konoha’s stability.”
Hearing this, Sasuke said, “Nidaime-sama, I thought you were just hating on us, Uchiha Clan… I didn’t expect you to be hating on Hyuga Clan too!”
“Hmph! I’ve never hated any clan of Konoha! I just don’t want to let the village have too many unstable factors. You, Uchiha Clan, think highly of yourself! You don’t even put other clans in your eyes, and your clan’s strength is too huge. Not to mention you also have the cursed Kekkei Genkai like Sharingan! If the Uchiha Clan isn’t restrained, your clan….”
“Enough, Tobirama! I don’t want to hear any of that again!” Senju Hashirama interrupted Senju Tobirama’s words.
Senju Tobirama hesitated but chose not to continue.
A group of four marched toward the forest in complete silence. No one wanted to talk about what happened.
They gradually got closer and closer to the forest.
…….
“What’s that!”
With Sharingan’s help, Sasuke was the first one to discover Gedo Mazo in the distance.
After moving closer, the other three people also found Gedo Mazo.
“The original forest should be right here.. It looks like they have destroyed the forest by some kind of force, presumably for that thing.” Senju Tobirama pointed at Gedo Mazo.
“That should be Gedo Mazo! It looks like they are already awakening Juubi!”
“Sasuke, let’s go!” Naruto linked Kyuubi Chakra.
Sasuke nodded and opened Mangekyou. The two glanced at each other and rushed out at the same time.
……..
Near Gedo Mazo, Uchiha Madara has noticed Naruto and Sasuke, “Hmph! Two little demons came. They really underestimate me!”
“Momoshiki-sama, they are Naruto and Sasuke. They are the ones who cracked Yakushi Kabuto’s Edo Tensei and captured him,” Black Zetsu said on the side.
Hearing that, Otsutsuki Willow’s complexion sank, “Madara-sama, just leave these two to me!”
………
“Naruto, I will try to attack with Katon. You use Futon to cooperate with me.”
As Sasuke said that, a purple giant emerged from his body, and the purple giant pulled open the bowstrings and set up a burning black long arrow.
Seeing this, Naruto condensed Wind Release: Dragon Blade Rasengan, and the two threw their skills at the same time.
The black arrow and the blade gradually merged into a huge black flame shuriken.*
[*TL Note: Scorch Release: Halo Hurricane Jet Black Arrow Style Zero (Shakuton: Kourin Shippuu Shikkoku no Ya Zeroshiki) This technique combines Naruto Uzumaki’s Wind Release: Rasenshuriken with Sasuke Uchiha’s Blaze Release: Kagutsuchi along with their variants. Because the wind to flame ratio is perfectly balanced, the flames are greatly enhanced, causing whatever is struck by this technique to be enveloped in a swirling mass of black flames.]
