Sage Mode

Hatake Sakumo looked at the White Fang in his hand, then at the Giant Blade in Eiji's hand, and wondered why his own sword seemed a bit short.

Hyuga Soichiro was even more shocked than the Uchiha at this moment.

Hiashi had told him after the Kumogakure invasion that Eiji's Chakra had not been depleted. Although it was hard to believe, he had used his Byakugan to observe Eiji's physical condition throughout the entire incident.

The more I looked at him, the more alarmed I became. Apart from a very slight decrease in Chakra at the moment he first extended the sword, he had maintained a state of zero chakra consumption the rest of the time.

In other words, those previous attacks didn't actually consume Chakra?

Even if you told someone, no one would believe you, right?

He was increasingly pleased with his son, who had even thought of bringing Ryuuzaki Eiji into the ranks of the Three Great Families; this was the kind of insight a clan leader should have.

◇

Although Eiji destroyed the Wood Human Technique, Hashirama and Tobirama's bodies remained intact. Furthermore, the Chakra recovery speed of the Impure World Reincarnation was Limitless, and Eiji's Jujutsu did not consume Chakra. The three of them returned to their original fierce battle.

However, although Eiji did not have any energy problems, his physical strength began to decline slightly.

Because of the previous victory over two thousand Sunagakure and the Kazekage, the Character Fusion Rate has now reached 56%.

Although it was only half, Eiji could still feel that it was much stronger than before, but the stalemate could not go on, and he had to find a way to break the deadlock.

Eiji and Hashirama exchanged fierce punches, with Hashirama's punches repeatedly missing their mark, while Eiji's punches landed squarely on his face.

Eiji would sometimes punch Hashirama the air, and sometimes Teleportation into the air and send him flying horizontally. Everyone's eyes followed Hashirama as he flew back and forth.

The Fourth Raikage stared in horror at the earth-shattering battle between the three.

Every punch was devastating; in the face of such terrifying power, Old Man's Lightning Release Chakra Mode was simply as fragile as paper.

How is he supposed to avenge his father now?

And this kind of person will become the Fourth Hokage in the Future, which means that in about ten years, he will be forced to contend with such an existence?

This isn't even the most terrifying part. Ryuuzaki Eiji is already this powerful now; just how terrifying will he be when he grows up?

Is Kumogakure about to be overshadowed by Konoha?

Many people's Adam's apples bobbed as they watched the scene intently, knowing that what happened tonight would be unforgettable for them.

Moreover, as they recount it, this rumor will spread further and further until it becomes a household name.

Seemingly realizing that Hashirama's speed couldn't keep up with Eiji's, Black Zetsu in the distance changed his primary target, and Tobirama Body Flicker Technique rushed forward to engage Eiji in battle.

The two figures flashed wildly in the air, their presence causing metal to clang and sparks to fly!

However, regardless of the type of attack they endured, both Hashirama and Tobirama's damaged bodies would heal at an astonishingly rapid pace.

"It's useless. The body Impure World Reincarnation cannot be destroyed. No matter how powerful you are, in the end, there is only defeat."

Danzo with a gloomy expression.

While Eiji was still locked in fierce combat with the two, upon hearing Danzo's words, he didn't hold back and, taking a moment from his busy schedule, immediately raised his hand and threw Giant Rock in their direction.

Danzo couldn't dodge in time and was sliced off from the Lower Body the Giant Rock. His Upper Body was also sent flying far away like a rag.

"A defeated opponent shouldn't waste words."

Danzo quickly restored his body, slowly stood up, and his expression was sinister.

"Ryuuzaki Eiji, you dare to be so stubborn even when you're about to die! Once I get your body, I'll Impure World Reincarnation and make you suffer endless humiliation!"

◇

Black Zetsu had already learned about the situation from White Zetsu, who was lurking nearby, and he immediately gritted his teeth in anger.

"I never expected you to go this far! Ryuuzaki Eiji!" Black Zetsu gritted his teeth. "Fine, since you're so eager to fight, I'll give you a dignified death. Next, I'll unleash the full power of Hashirama Senju and show you what despair truly means!"

Although this tactic would greatly weaken his control over Hashirama, it wouldn't get out of control if it was only maintained for a short time. He just needed to go Full Power out from the start, and Ryuuzaki Eiji would definitely not survive!

That way, I can suppress Hashirama's power before he loses control, preventing him from going out of control!

"Ryuuzaki Eiji, for my mother's sake, you must die here!"

◇

At this moment, Hashirama, who was fighting Eiji, became serious. He jumped back a distance and said, "Young man, the next attack will be quite terrifying, but I believe you will persevere."

"Brother, are you going to--!?" Tobirama asked seriously.

"Ah, it seems the opponent has unleashed more than half of my power. In that case, I'll have no choice but to use that technique."

"How could you do that? No one could stop you if you did that!"

"Don't worry, there will always be a solution."

Hashirama clapped his Hashirama together, Chakra surged outward uncontrollably, creating a terrifying aura that made the pebbles beneath his feet tremble violently!

"Drink it! Aaaaaaah!"

Black eyeshadow patterns appeared on Hashirama's face; Eiji could immediately tell that he had entered Sage Mode.

Eiji admired Black Zetsu more and more. The greatest inventor in the Shinobi World wasn't Orochimaru or Kabuto, it was Black Zetsu.

He can even control Hashirama Senju in Sage Mode. Although it seems a bit unstable, he is unprecedented and will likely never be able to do it again.

Hashirama Senju, now in Sage Mode, exuded immense pressure. "Young man, don't hold back any longer! I'm about to unleash my Full Power, so you must Full Power too!"

These words immediately caused a stir among the people on the other side.

"What?! This isn't even his Full Power! What would it be like if he went Full Power out!?"

"Heh, heh heh, this must be a dream."

"Sage Mode!?"

Cold sweat Hiruzen Sarutobi's forehead; he was a witness to the Battle of the Valley of the End.

It can be said that the Wood Human Technique was not Hashirama Senju's Full Power, but Sage Mode was where he truly began to take things seriously.

He never expected that Impure World Reincarnation body could do such a thing. Even if he still had faith in Ryuuzaki Eiji, he was now somewhat disheartened.

At this point, anyone with experience who knew Hashirama Senju's true power was on the verge of losing their composure, especially Ōnoki, who nearly had a heart attack when he saw the markings on Hashirama's face.

In the early days after the Shinobi Village was established, everyone knew what Hashirama's strongest Ninjutsu was. If he could still remain calm during the Wood Human Technique, he would be in utter despair now.

Chiyo's expression was also very unpleasant, while Hanzō wished he could escape from this place right now.
