"Ah, as your best friend, I'm truly relieved to see you come to terms with the truth, Madara," Uchiha Madara Senju Hashirama, patting Madara on the shoulder with a look of satisfaction after hearing his words.
"Alright, Hashirama, enough talk, let's get ready for our final desperate fight," Uchiha Madara Senju Hashirama's right hand patting his shoulder.
"Hahaha, no problem. We've been best friends since childhood, but because of our families' different stances, we could only face each other in life and death on the battlefield. I never thought that more than 20 years would pass in the blink of an eye, and we would actually fight together again... I'm really getting excited right now, Madara!"
This is probably the first and last time in our lives that we will fight side by side against an enemy, Madara... No matter how this battle goes, given our families' positions, we will never have another chance to truly join forces like this again. Let's enjoy this final battle to the fullest!
If we win, fine; but if we lose, at least before we die, we fought a glorious battle and enjoyed the thrill of combat, didn't we?"
After Uchiha Madara's low shout, Senju Hashirama stood up and laughed heartily, his face full of nonchalance, showing no trace of the expression that would appear when facing someone in a life-or-death situation...
Upon hearing Senju Hashirama's words, Uchiha Madara seemed to be infected by that carefree smile. His dejected mood vanished, and a smile appeared on his face. At this moment, the once domineering Uchiha Madara had returned once again!
"Well said, Hashirama. I've always been resentful of you. Clearly, the Uchiha Clan and Senju Clan clans are the strongest in this Ninja World, and our strengths are roughly equal. But when people mention you and me, they always rank me after you. This has always been very frustrating for me..."
Now, perhaps I understand why others see us this way. Maybe it's because of your carefree attitude that I've never been able to truly surpass you.
Looking at his friends beside him, Uchiha Madara was filled with emotion, his face a complex mix of feelings. In a daze, Uchiha Madara seemed to see himself again by that little river... On his left were him and his younger brother Izuna, and on his right were the brothers Hashirama and Tobirama. Time... how quickly it passes!
On the other side, Jun Tianlin, standing opposite Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, was deeply moved after clearly hearing their conversation.
Previously, Jun Tianlin had never understood why Uchiha Madara, who possessed the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan and could even control the Nine-Tails, was always outmatched by Senju Hashirama. Logically, their strength should have been roughly equal, yet Uchiha Madara still couldn't defeat Senju Hashirama even after obtaining the Nine-Tails.
Only now, after actually meeting Senju Hashirama Senju Hashirama hearing his words, did Jun Tianlin truly understand what had happened between the two men later known as gods— Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama —and why Uchiha Madara was constantly suppressed by Senju Hashirama, even suffering another defeat at the Valley of the End.
Senju Hashirama was too carefree; he saw everything clearly. He wanted to protect his friends, family, and clan, which made him even stronger and allowed him to unleash even more astonishing potential.
In contrast, Uchiha Madara, because he worshipped power, never accepted help or kindness from others, and faced difficulties alone. He was extremely domineering and tyrannical, self-centered, and had the typical mentality of a warlord in a chaotic world.
The root of all this is simply the difference in their mindsets. That's all. This is why Uchiha Madara was always overshadowed by Senju Hashirama, ultimately leading to Senju Hashirama the God of Ninja World!
"Alright, Hashirama, there's no point in saying more. Let's start preparing and use our last resort to fight it out!" After a moment of reflection, Uchiha Madara's eyes hardened, signaling Senju Hashirama to begin.
"No problem, now it's time to fight with all our might! Wood Release: Wood Human Technique!" Upon hearing Uchiha Madara's words, Senju Hashirama nodded, his Chakra surging rapidly within him as his hands flew up and down, constantly forming different hand seals.
Three seconds later, Senju Hashirama suddenly roared and slammed his palm into the ground, followed by a series of booming sounds.
With a deafening roar, a brownish-yellow Wood Release giant suddenly rose slowly from the ground and stood behind Senju Hashirama.
At this time, Senju Hashirama was far less powerful than he would be in later generations, and naturally he had not yet learned Senju Hashirama Mode. He did not yet know the most powerful Wood Release techniques, such as " Wood Release: Senju Clan Divine Power" and " Buddha on Top ". This move, which can rival Uchiha Madara's Perfect Susanoo's Wood Release: Wood Human Technique, is the strongest move that Hashirama can use at this time!
Similarly, Uchiha Madara at this time was not the Madara of later generations who had Rinnegan. He was not so powerful that he could sweep across the Ninja World single-handedly. A complete Susanoo was the limit of Uchiha Madara at this time.
"Swish"
After a soft sound, Uchiha Madara and stood at its right eye, while Senju Hashirama stood opposite Uchiha Madara at the left eye of the wooden dummy.
"Armored Susanoo "
The next second, Uchiha Madara, standing on the wooden doll's right eye, also spared no expense in consuming Chakra, frantically forming hand Hand Seals, finally revealing his last trump card.
"Click"
A series of muffled thuds followed, and the Perfect Susanoo, which had been protecting Uchiha Madara, suddenly detached from Uchiha Madara's body and instead attached itself to the wooden golem summoned by Hashirama...
Not only that, the blue Susanoo attached to the wooden doll instantly transformed into a suit of armor, completely enveloping the wooden doll and wearing it on its body!
The wooden dummy, comparable to the Perfect Susanoo, combined with the armor Perfect Susanoo, is the final trump card that Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama had planned before this battle!
