[Nagato: I'm sorry, Jiraiya- sensei, I've disappointed you.]

Seeing his own fate, Nagato realized that he had let Jiraiya down.

Perhaps Jiraiya originally saw himself as the chosen one.

However, he himself went astray.

[Jiraiya: Nagato, you, Yahiko, and Konan have always been my students.]

Since Nagato has not yet fallen into Darkness, Jiraiya is not disappointed in Nagato.

On the contrary, knowing what would happen in the future prevented his disciples from killing each other.

At this point, their ranking in the Shinobi World had reached a very high position; without the strength of Super Kage, they couldn't even dream of moving up any further.

Just when everyone was anticipating the next super strong person.

[Ding! Top 6 of the Shinobi World's Kage Level Fighters Ranking -Hashirama Senju]

[God of Shinobi]

[First Hokage]

[The Founder of Konoha]

[Asura reincarnation]

[Konoha's Great Ancestor Emperor]

[Hashirama the Great, also known as Xiao Zhudi]

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Is that Lord Hashirama?! I've finally waited for Lord Hashirama!]

[Obito: Damn it, did the First Hokage really have that many titles?]

And each of them looks incredibly cool! Look at Kakashi's 50/50 handicap.

This comparison reveals that there is simply no comparison.

At this Hashirama was not a true Six Paths level powerhouse, but he was still the God of Shinobi, and no matter what, he was the strongest person below the Six Paths level.

As for Nagato and Kabuto Yakushi, just put them aside.

This is someone you can't afford to extort money from.

Although he is said to be the strongest below the Six Paths, to be honest, Hashirama is already infinitely close to being a being of the Six Paths.

In other words, Hashirama didn't intend to become Jinchūriki; otherwise, I could have become Six Paths.

Of course, the one in the green shirt doesn't need to stand up and refute.

After all, aside from Taijutsu, you're not that great at anything else.

Although you can reach the Six Paths level in a short time after opening the Eight Gates Released Formation and the Four Gate of Death, I, Hashirama Senju, am not necessarily afraid of you.

I'm not going to be as stupid as Madara, waiting for you to charge up your power, and I won't give you the chance to unleash your Gate of Death.

Don't laugh at me, Hashirama Senju, for being honest. When I get into a fight, I can stab my best buddies in the back, let alone a little watermelon-head like you.

Therefore, I, Judy, am the number one person under the Six Paths. Who agrees? Who disagrees?

Those who disagree, think it over. I have a brother who's even more arrogant than me, and he doesn't have the best temper.

I also have a grand-disciple who is at the Six Paths level, and my brother's descendant is also at the Six Paths level.

Moreover, Hashirama Senju was proficient in Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, and even Genjutsu, making him a formidable opponent in actual combat.

Might Guy's Evening Elephant attack required the assistance of Gaara, Kakashi Kamui, and Minato Namikaze to unleash a nuclear explosion.

(To put it bluntly, what's the difference between Might Guy and Eula? Without support, where do the high numbers come from?)

Madara Uchiha probably wanted to try taking it himself at the time, maybe he was itching to try, or maybe he was used to being invincible after Hashirama's death and wanted to try something different.

At that time, Madara hadn't used many of his Ninjutsu, which is why Guy's kick was able to severely injure him.

But let's not forget that Madara Uchiha recovered very quickly after taking that kick.

This is what makes the Six Paths level different from ordinary Super Kage. Super Kage can still be Kunai, but after reaching the Six Paths level, one's entire life form is different from that of an ordinary person.

Take Six Paths Obito Uchiha, for example. Many people underestimate him, but they forget that at his level, he can ignore the damage caused by ordinary Ninjutsu.

Aside from Senjutsu, even if tens of thousands of other Shinobi surrounded and attacked him, he wouldn't lose any health.

If you asked Might Guy to do that, Might Guy couldn't. That's the difference between the Six Paths and an ordinary Super Kage.

However, Hashirama Senju is different. Hashirama Senju also possesses Sage Mode, and it appears to be a very powerful Sage Mode.

With the addition of Chatonra and the Wood Release Ninjutsu specifically designed to suppress Tailed Beasts, he could definitely go toe-to-toe with Obito Uchiha.

Of course, this requires Hashirama Senju to be at his peak; in his Edo Impure World Reincarnation state, he's still somewhat weak.

Hashirama doesn't need any of your Chakra, and his Wood Release has incredibly strong self-healing abilities.

Therefore, when writing about the number one person below the Six Paths, Hashirama Senju is the first choice.

Hashirama Senju's most underestimated skill lies in his incredibly powerful Wood Release Ninjutsu.

It can be used for landscaping, suppressing Tailed Beasts, building houses, and even fighting with others when things get urgent.

Throughout the Senju Clan, only Hashirama awakened Wood Release Ninjutsu. It is clear that Wood Release is not considered Kekkei Genkai, because even among blood relatives, there has never been a case of someone awakening Wood Release.

It can only be said that it is a secret technique created by Hashirama Senju. It is Ninjutsu that the user uses his own Chakra as the source of life to activate, which can rapidly grow multiple trees from the ground and create a forest in an instant. The user can control all the offense and defense of the trees in the forest, and it is also beneficial for the user to use other Wood Release Ninjutsu.

Ordinary people simply don't have that much Chakra, so it's naturally difficult for them to unleash large-scale Wood Release Ninjutsu.

A clear example is Yamato; his Wood Release can only be used to build houses.

Hashirama Senju's strength lay in every aspect; he could instantly enter Sage Mode without any delay and could use a wide variety of Ninjutsu.

Some Ninjutsu techniques that ordinary people may never master in their entire lives, and these Ninjutsu were most likely invented by Hashirama himself.

Such techniques include Wood Release: Nativity of a World of Trees, Sage Art: Gate of the Great God, Sage Art: Wood Release: Sage Art: Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands, Wood Release: Wood Release: Hotei Technique, and so on.

As the God of Shinobi, how could he have unified Konoha if he didn't have a signature skill?

How could they, Susanoo-Clad Kurama, destroy four countries?

[Nawaki: I knew Grandpa would make the list.]

[Tsunade: I miss my grandfather.]

At this moment, Tsunade recalled the happy times she had with her grandfather when she was young, her grandfather who had even worse luck at gambling than her, and the First Hokage who was criticized by her second grandfather Tenten.

Who would have thought that the always smiling old man was so powerful in his youth?

[Shikaku Nara: If the First Hokage is ranked this position, doesn't that mean Madara Uchiha is above the First Hokage?]

At this point, Shikaku raised a question: The First Hokage clearly defeated Madara Uchiha in the Battle of the Valley of the End, so why is Madara Uchiha ranked higher than Lord Hashirama?

[Ōnoki: I don't know. Lord Madara's strength is as unfathomable as Lord Hashirama's.]

[Obito: Kakashi, do you think it's possible?]

[Kakashi: Impossible!]

At that moment, Kakashi decisively interrupted Obito's wishful thinking. Obito opened his mouth, Kakashi knew what he was going to do.

It's simply that they think they can make the list too, and even rank higher than Lord Hashirama.

I definitely need to give Obito a reality check and not let him become so complacent.

[Lin: You never know, I'm rooting for you, Obito!]

[Obito: Rin is still the one who believes me.]
