At this moment, in a dark underground base:

"What happened outside?"

"What was that tremor just now?"

It was as if he was ordering them to investigate the cause!

And just as the guards beside him were about to move:

Swish swish swish---!

Three other Root ninjas suddenly appeared beside them with a Shunshin.

"Lord Danzo, something's wrong, outside..."

The three Root ninjas, who seemed to be messengers, all appeared somewhat flustered and uncertain.

"What are you panicking about? Speak, what exactly happened?" Danzo commanded with icy eyes.

In response:

"Lord Danzo, it's Uchiha Madara! The legendary ninja, Uchiha Madara, is not dead at all. He has appeared in our Konohagakure right now and is slaughtering Anbu Ninjas indiscriminately."

"He's too strong. Kakashi, Choji Akimichi, and a host of other Jonin are no match for him!"

"The Fifth Hokage, Tsunade Hime, has already arrived on the battlefield, and it seems she can't stop the legendary ninja, Uchiha Madara!!"

The three Root ninjas reported urgently.

"You... What did you say!!" Danzo couldn't remain calm for a moment.

Uchiha Madara?!!

At this moment, Outside, the wide streets of Konohagakure, which were once a scene of prosperity, were now devastated. Countless civilians were fleeing in a desperate rush.

Even the ground was covered in bloody corpses!

All of them were Konoha Anbu Ninjas!

Clang---!

At this moment, a tall figure clad in red armor stood amidst a large pile of corpses, planting the Scythe Weapon in his hand into the ground.

"Heh, how unsightly!"

Chen Yiban looked at the dozens of Konoha Anbu Ninjas around him, whom he had cut down like vegetables, with a cold, faint smile on his face.

Perhaps it was due to accepting the memories of "Uchiha Madara's" entire life.

Chen Yiban had unknowingly become completely desensitized to life!

Slaughtering dozens of Konoha Anbu Ninjas, the ground covered in blood, the stench of blood overwhelmingly pungent. Chen Yiban felt no discomfort whatsoever!

It was as if he were a true Asura from hell!!

"How... how could this be..."

At this moment, Kakashi, Kurenai Yuhi, Anko Mitarashi, and a host of other ninjas beside Tsunade Hime stared in shock at the powerful figure clad in red armor.

Disbelief!

The dozens of Anbu Ninjas who had charged forward just now were all killed by him in less than ten seconds...

All of them!!

Too fast!

Kurenai Yuhi and the others couldn't even clearly see Chen Yiban's movements. In the blink of an eye, they saw the Anbu Ninjas being decapitated.

A horrific sight!

"Bastard...!" Tsunade Hime was also shocked by Chen Yiban's strength.

While it was true that she, Tsunade Hime, could kill dozens of Anbu Ninjas if she wanted to.

But to do it as effortlessly as Chen Yiban, wiping them all out within ten seconds...

Even she, Tsunade Hime, wouldn't dare to claim such a feat. Yet Chen Yiban had directly accomplished it!

He even seemed to be holding back!

This strength

Completely intimidated every Konoha ninja present!

At this moment:

"Hm?"

"What? You don't even dare to do the basic dance anymore?"

Chen Yiban, with a pair of scarlet Mangekyo Sharingan eyes, looked indifferently at the many Konoha ninjas opposite him, whose faces were filled with terror.

"Madara!" Tsunade Hime shouted, "What exactly is your goal?"

Hearing this, "My goal?"

Chen Yiban muttered to himself.

Then:

"To reclaim everything that originally belonged to Uchiha Madara!"

Chen Yiban spoke ambiguously.

"What?" Tsunade Hime, Kakashi, and the others were a bit confused.

"In the past, one of the conditions for the alliance between the Uchiha and the Senju was: Hashirama personally promised that I, Uchiha Madara, would become the First Hokage."

"But, in the end... he deceived me!"

At this moment, Chen Yiban seemed to have fallen back into the depths of Uchiha Madara's memories, recounting the unwillingness in the original Uchiha Madara's heart.

"That day, not a single person followed me."

"Behind me... there was no one."

As if stimulated by the memories in his mind, Chen Yiban couldn't help but feel sorrow and indignation.

Chen Yiban couldn't help but tighten his grip on the Scythe Weapon he held!

Finally:

"Everyone, get out of Konoha!"

"I can choose not to kill you!"

This was Chen Yiban's last statement.

Konoha...

Should have had a place for Uchiha Madara.

Now, Chen Yiban wanted to reclaim everything that once belonged to that man for "Uchiha Madara."

Even if it was just a small reward for obtaining Uchiha Madara's ultimate power!

"Impossible!" After hearing this, Tsunade Hime directly threw a punch, refusing Chen Yiban.

Kakashi, Asuma, Might Guy, and others stepped forward, their faces resolute.

Even Choji Akimichi, whose arm had just been severed by Chen Yiban's "Yatsuka no Magatama," after a simple treatment, once again grew giant and blocked Chen Yiban's path.

Seeing this, Chen Yiban stopped speaking.

Instead, holding the Scythe Weapon, he slowly:

Tap—tap----

Took a step forward!

One step, one step, he walked towards the group of Konoha ninjas ahead.

His killing intent was completely unconcealed.

Suddenly, some ordinary ninjas couldn't help but feel fear and retreated!

Some even couldn't help but lower their heads and pray!

"Everyone, pull yourselves together, this is for our..." Tsunade Hime tried to boost morale.

But:

Whoosh---

Chen Yiban charged forward directly, not giving her any more time for nonsense.

"Fire Release...!!" Asuma was the first to unleash a ninjutsu.

"I told you, don't show off in front of an expert!" Chen Yiban leaped into the air, coldly roaring.

At the same time, he temporarily stored the Scythe Weapon in his system space:

"Fire Release: Majestic Flame Annihilation!!"

Boom-----

An incredibly terrifying, colossal fire, like a giant arrow piercing the sky, shot rapidly towards the Konoha ninjas in front of him.

It instantly broke through the Fire Release ninjutsu Asuma had unleashed and quickly attacked Tsunade Hime, Kakashi, and the others.

In response, Tsunade Hime, Kakashi, Kurenai Yuhi, Might Guy, and others dodged the Majestic Flame Annihilation.

"Ah...!!!" But the Majestic Flame Annihilation still burned some of the Anbu ninjas and civilian ninjas who couldn't dodge in time into charcoal.

And Chen Yiban had already retrieved the Scythe Weapon from his system space.

Meanwhile:

Whoosh—!

Just as Asuma Sarutobi steadied himself after dodging the Great Fire Annihilation, Chen Yiban's Asura-like red figure abruptly appeared before him.

For a moment, Asuma felt... his heartbeat inexplicably stop!

It wasn't until Asuma saw Chen Yiban swinging the scythe in his hand toward his body that he snapped back to reality.

He then readied his Kunai to block!

However:

"Heh!"

Chen Yiban, with hair flowing down to his waist, chuckled.

All of Asuma Sarutobi's movements were completely exposed under the powerful perception of his "Mangekyo Sharingan."

Swish—!!

The scythe, which had been aimed at Asuma's body, bizarrely changed its attack. The smooth slash turned upward.

Immediately after, a trail of blood scattered through the air!

Asuma clutched his throat, blood continuously flowing out from it.

"Asuma…!!"
