This is also why Ninja born on the battlefield are stronger than Ninja born through training.

In the bizarre world of the Shinobi World, where even a Super Kage can be killed with Kunai.

Those who survive the battlefield possess an intense 'sensitivity' to death and danger!

This thing is no longer just a simple use of Chakra; it's more like an instinct born from a body that has been in constant danger for many years.

However, Uka Senju was already prepared for the effects of this punch.

When Hiruzen Sarutobi used the force to fly backwards from his original position at a critical moment, dodging the storm of attacks from Uka in close combat.

Uka Senju a punch in the sneak attack, did not choose to follow up again, but instead clasped her hands together in prayer!

Wood Release: Tree Binding Eternal Burial

A Wood Release Ninjutsu, which predicted Hiruzen Sarutobi point, was activated.

The ground was split open by tree roots, which continued to grow, their branches swaying as they entangled Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had flown in.

Besides this Ninjutsu, Uka Senju's clasped hands were primarily to direct the plants to destroy all the Substitution Wood that Hiruzen Sarutobi had left in the vicinity!

Amidst the cracking sounds, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was enduring the pain as he formed the Substitution Technique Hiruzen Sarutobi in the air, looked even more grim.

During his time fighting with Wood Release, what he disliked and resented most was this ability of Wood Release.

The destruction of the Ninja's Substitution Wood means that Ninja who have lost their reliance on Substitution Technique are no longer able to fight.

Uka Senju's fighting style is nothing like that of a normal Ninja!

Muttering to himself, he quickly changed the hand seal without wasting any time.

But before Hiruzen Sarutobi could form any other hand seals to resolve the current situation...

The Ninjutsu that Uka Senju released earlier, which induced the growth of Wood Release plants, touched Hiruzen Sarutobi's body.

The more branches his body came into contact with, the faster his Chakra left.

Even for Kage Level, this extraction speed is possible...

Previously, I had only witnessed the fate of my own Ninja being entangled by Wood Release.

Now I'm experiencing it firsthand...

The terrifying aspect of Hashirama's Wood Release lies in the effect of those branches touching the body.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had been avoiding Wood Release throughout the entire battle, finally learned a true lesson!

An eye and a mouth sprouted from the Adamantine Staff, which was fleeing from Uka Senju.

Seeing that Sarutobi was still forming other hand seals, preparing to fight, and knowing that it had come into contact with the effects of Wood Release, it immediately shouted a warning to Hiruzen Sarutobi: "It's time, Sarutobi!"

"If this drags on any longer, you'll be permanently stuck here!"

As an aid in understanding the other party's thoughts and plans, it must bring Sarutobi his senses at this crucial moment.

Although it had been considering the future of its own race, it would not abandon its ally now, given the hundreds of years of cooperation between the two races!

"Understood, Enma!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi, his hands, which were about to form Ninjutsu hand seal, and immediately switched to a technique for escaping.

He channeled the last of his Chakra, following the prescribed route, and fixed his gaze on the white-haired man opposite him, saying, " Wood Release, prepare for the final battle!"

As the words fell, the Reverse Summoning Technique was activated.

After a "bang".

The Third Hokage of Konohagakure abandoned his loyal clansmen, subordinates, and the elderly, women, and children of the Four Clans, leaving Konohagakure!

"..."

With a casual wave of her hand, Uka Senju dispelled the aftermath of the Ninjutsu, stood up straight, and shook her head helplessly at the spot where the Third Hokage had fled.

He also wanted to eliminate all the hidden dangers in this First Shinobi World War, but the thousands of wooden balls behind him hindered his movements.

Furthermore, I cannot completely block that Reverse Summoning Technique right now.

Unless his Sealing Jutsu has reached a certain level, or he has other means.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to solve this problem!

However, being able to Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage, is a positive factor in this battle.

As news spread that the Third Hokage had fled the battlefield, Uka Senju became active on the battlefield.

The resistance of the Ninja who were left behind immediately weakened.

Some Commoners Ninja who were not bound by the Cursed Seal even surrendered.

These people were all Commoners Ninja who had relatives in Konoha.

If the Third Hokage hadn't escaped, they would have fought to the death under years of brainwashing.

With the departure of the Third Hokage, continuing the resistance on this battlefield became meaningless.

They wisely sacrificed their lives and their Senju to give their loved ones a chance to live!

"Please wait here, I will arrange it as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, Uka Senju nodded, meeting her Aunt's gaze.

The battlefield was now crowded with people and eyes, except for those who had absorbed the energy in the Flower Tree World earlier.

For the remaining majority of people, it was not convenient for him to absorb energy at this moment.

After my Aunt led the tribal chiefs away.

Uka Senju then went to work with the Sealing Ninja within the alliance to deal with the wooden balls in the Flower Tree World.

As the battlefield was pacified, nearly half of Sarutobi's Impure World Reincarnation team automatically dispelled their summons.

The remaining half, which had not been unsealed, became the perfect experimental subject for Grandma Mito's new research into Sealing Jutsu.

Based on the conclusions that Grandma Mito had drawn from her previous research on the two brothers.

Similar to the later stages of a previous storyline, the Soul Sealing Jutsu of the Allied Shinobi Forces was established by this Sealing Jutsu master.

The envisioned effect of this technique is to completely eliminate the possibility of the Impure World Reincarnation body being summoned again.

Uka Senju needs to do now is to work with the Sealing Ninja to verify Grandma Mito's new technique!

He was in charge of using force to destroy the enemy, while Mito Uzumaki was in charge of leading the Sealing Ninja to carry out the sealing.

This is an experimental process, and also a teaching process. After all, given Mito Uzumaki's current physical condition, she will most likely be left in the village to guard the house during the next decisive battle.

If the Sealing Ninja within the alliance learn this, they can give Sarutobi a big surprise in the next decisive battle!

Instead of following behind them, Uka Senju, while distracted by manipulating the Flower Tree World to cooperate with them, squatted down next to her grandfather ( Tsunade ) with a notebook in hand, studying.

Although his basic Sage Body was already superior to Hashirama Senju's, he still couldn't match Hashirama Senju in the combination of Wood Release and Senjutsu.

The Third Injection will definitely elevate him to another level.

But having an additional technique called Senjutsu was, in his opinion, quite good!

With one willing to teach and the other willing to learn, the two happily began exchanging ideas about cultivating Senjutsu!

The clan leaders of Konoha followed Senju Toka to the Senju Clan Compound's council hall to begin their post-war meeting.

The aftermath and cleanup within the village, the support, withdrawal, and handling of various teams outside the village, the various intelligence and internal communications transmitted back from outside the village this morning, the arrangements for the next major battle, the reorganization of new teams, and the initial post-battle preparations—these are all matters that the clan chief or high-ranking officials need to communicate and resolve!

From near to far, commands were quickly issued from the main hall.

The troops who were resting and cleaning up on the battlefield after the war were taken away by orders one after another.

With the village victorious in the war, the corresponding reckoning also began.

Following the order issued from inside the council chamber, all relatives of the traitors were to be executed.

Although the Four Clans have already taken away many talented individuals, high-ranking members, and elite family members.

However, the Senju's surprise attack left many of the Four Clans and the Commoners Ninja behind in the village, including the elderly, women, and children.

They had previously enjoyed the benefits that came with their family's Ninja status and high-ranking clan membership.

Now is the time for them to be implicated and brought to justice!

In the Shinobi World, there is no such thing as harming one's wife, children, and elderly parents. Hiruzen Sarutobi chose to fight the Senju outside the Senju world instead of coming to their aid, which meant he made the choice to abandon them!

Tens of thousands of people in Konoha who were implicated were escorted by various Ninja teams to the ravaged battlefield.

As the butcher's blade fell, the stench of these people mingled with the blood of the Ninja who had been killed earlier, filling the sky above the entire Konoha.

Blood pools had accumulated in the low-lying areas of the battlefield until the last squad was executed.

Looking at the mountain of corpses piled up before her, Uka Senju, who had already cooperated with Mito Uzumaki to seal the Impure World Reincarnation army.

Despite his physical discomfort, he clasped his hands together and unleashed a Wood Release that covered the entire battlefield.

Countless clods of earth were stirred up by the tree roots underground.

They entangled themselves around the corpses before burrowing back into the ground.

Because of the discomfort experienced by the manipulators, they will erase all traces of these people from underground.

With a deafening roar, corpses, building debris, and everything else were swept underground.

In just a few minutes, the battlefield was leveled again.

If it weren't for the fact that the buildings above were all gone, it would be as if nothing had ever happened here!

Ding ding ding~!

The system notification in the lower left corner of the view kept ringing, but the massive energy gain did not bring any joy to the system's owner.

Seeing Uka's deeply furrowed brows, Mito Uzumaki, one of the people who brought this scene to life, nodded slightly and stepped forward, saying, "Is this scene somewhat unacceptable?"

Frowning and shaking her head, Uka Senju did not respond.

Those who have benefited from this, and based on energy calculations, have killed no fewer people over the years than what just happened.

He has no right to say things like whether or not it's acceptable!

In his eyes, these people were, strictly speaking, all enemies.

His frown was simply because he had never witnessed such a large-scale massacre before, and for a moment he felt a pang of sympathy for his own kind.

To put it bluntly, it's like crocodile tears; the body only shows a compassionate reaction after all the killing has already happened!

Instead, the scene before him was a reminder of what truly mattered in this world!

This... is the consequence of failure. If the Senju hadn't chosen to fight today, or if they hadn't discovered the problems of the Sarutobi clan back then, or if they hadn't awakened Wood Release.

Such a scenario would then play out in the Land of Whirlpools and the Senju, only at a different time and in a different place, with different victors!

As someone who has already accepted the identity of Senju and possesses memories of his past life, he wouldn't have any ulterior motives about killing these people.

In a world where if you don't kill someone, someone else will kill you!

Only by strengthening ourselves can we protect our loved ones, family, and friends from harm in this world.

Uka Senju was well aware of this, as he was about to have three children, which is why he shook his head when asked the question earlier!

Looking at the spot where the corpses had been piled up, now it was flat ground, without even a drop of blood.

But anyone who witnessed the scene just now can almost smell the faint stench of blood even now, looking at this flat ground!

Wearing a white robe, with red hair and familiar gold accessories, Mito Uzumaki placed her hands clasped over her abdomen.

He stepped forward and stood beside Uka.

Looking at the four stone human face statues not far ahead, her aged voice, incongruous with her appearance, rang out again. "This scene was specially created for you. We hope you will remember the source of your power, and also bear in mind the consequences of failure."

"We worry that you will become lost in the pursuit of power and disregard human life, but we are even more worried that after we leave, the Senju will fail and meet such an end!"

"Therefore, we need you to deeply imprint this scene in your mind. We hope you will not be misled by power and will not try to control it, but at the same time, we hope you will always be aware of the consequences of failure!"

Those old guys are incredibly greedy, to the point that they want everything.

As Ninja who came from the Warring States period, they did not care about human life.

However, they were more indifferent to the lives of their enemies than to everyone else!

They did not want their family to experience such a tragedy, so they needed Uka Senju to possess sufficient power.

Yet, she worried that Uka Senju would become lost in the power, leading Senju into the abyss or causing Uka to fall into it!

They used this scene to make Uka understand the consequences of the Shinobi World's defeat, and also to make Uka Uka aware of the price she would pay when seeking power, so that she would not lose herself in the pursuit of power!

It's contradictory, selfish, but also very much in line with human nature!

They both hoped that the Senju would prosper and never decline, yet they also hoped that Uka Senju would not lose her true self amidst the killing.

They possess both ruthless methods and a compassionate heart.

This is what they hope Uka, the future leader of the Senju, will possess!

They didn't know what Uka would think after seeing these scenes, but they were taking advantage of the fact that they were still alive and had a chance.

So they wanted to show it to Uka so that they could address any problems promptly!

Upon hearing Grandma Mito's words, Uka Senju glanced at her side with some surprise.

He understood the logic of what was going on immediately, smiled silently, and nodded, saying, "Grandma, I understand."

Upon hearing this, Mito Uzumaki turned her head and silently looked at the little guy in front of her who was already taller than her.

The image of that little fellow looking so pathetic on the execution platform back then is still vivid in my mind.

And only a few years have passed...

After observing for a long time, Mito Uzumaki finally realized that the other party truly understood the thoughts of them, these old guys.
