"By then, they'll be dead!"
Senju Fujima's lips curled slightly as he looked at Retto before him with a teasing gaze.
"What? Absorbing chakra?"
"Damn it, this Wood Release is actually this powerful?"
"And this Senju Fujima has such enormous chakra reserves that he can directly cast Water Release over such a vast area."
"Am I really inferior to Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha?"
"I can't even defeat some little brat from Konoha?"
"Why?"
"Why? I'm the First Kazekage!"
Retto was filled with fury. He did not know why he had lost, nor why he had lost so miserably.
"What do you want?"
Retto frowned deeply as he looked at Senju Fujima, endless killing intent flashing through his eyes.
"What do I want?"
"Simple. Kneel and kowtow to me three times, then declare your submission to Konoha and head to Konoha to discuss the war reparations for this conflict."
"As for everything else, we'll discuss it after returning to Konoha!"
Senju Fujima's lips curled slightly. Seeing that Retto had lost his previous arrogance, he calmly stated his demands.
"What? You want me to kneel and kowtow?"
"You...!"
Retto had not expected Senju Fujima to say such a thing. He was, after all, the First Kazekage, yet he was being told to kneel outright. This was pure humiliation—how could he possibly accept such humiliation? His face instantly flushed red as he pointed at him.
"First Kazekage-sama, don't!"
"Don't worry about us! Run, hurry and run!"
"That's right, First Kazekage-sama! You can't kneel because of us! We would rather die than submit! We would rather die than submit!"
"First Kazekage-sama, hurry and leave! Don't worry about us! Konoha actually dares to humiliate us like this—they're utterly despicable!"
Very quickly, the Sunagakure ninja who had been trapped also heard Senju Fujima's outrageous demand.
