"Awaken! The strongest legend of the Uchiha Clan— "
" Madara Uchiha!!"
When Uchiha Gen'yō's majestic divine voice, carrying with it the supreme power of laws capable of reversing life and death, resounded throughout the entire world and the Pure Land, everyone's breath stopped for a moment!
Madara Uchiha!
That legend whose very name is synonymous with "war" and "destruction"!
That man who almost single-handedly overturned the entire Shinobi World's order!
He's... resurrected?!
And not in that fragile, Impure World Reincarnation from the dead!
Instead, it reigns supreme over this land once more, possessing true flesh and blood, a true soul, and at its zenith!
Rumble rumble rumble--!!!!
The sky above the entire " Utopia " capital city changed color, with lightning and thunder!
It was as if an invisible hand had torn open a huge, pitch-black crack in the sky!
Behind that crack lies an endless Pure Land filled with deathly silence and the aura of reincarnation!
A terrifying Chakra, so immense that it would suffocate all the ninjas below the Kage Level present, erupted from the other end of the crack like an ancient ferocious beast awakening!
Immediately afterwards, a figure wearing dark red, ancient Warring States-era armor, with wild and unruly long black hair, arms crossed, and an aura of dominance over the world, slowly Earth Flow step by step from the dark crack!
His handsome face, which was filled with arrogance and disdain, showed no trace of the bewilderment one might feel from just returning from the brink of death.
All that's left is a domineering attitude that seems to have anticipated everything and is taken for granted!
He slowly opened his eyes.
Those were purple, ring-shaped eyes, completely different from Uchiha Itachi's Mangekyo, filled with an aura of eternity and reincarnation— the Rinnegan!
His gaze swept casually over the area below, but the overwhelming aura of a supreme powerhouse emanating from him, as if he could trample the entire world under his feet, instantly made Uchiha Shō and the other young prodigies feel their souls tremble!
powerful!
That's incredible!
This oppressive aura even surpassed that of any enemy they had faced before!
Is this... the legendary Madara Uchiha?
However, when Madara Uchiha's gaze fell on the young man directly in front of him, who was also floating in the air and staring at him with a calm expression, the pupils of his proud Rinnegan suddenly contracted!
Uchiha Gen'yō!
Madara Uchiha was no stranger to this name.
During his long time "imprisoned" in the Pure Land, he silently observed the world through some special secret technique.
He witnessed how this young man had emerged into the world in a way that he himself could not comprehend.
He witnessed how effortlessly he had destroyed Konoha and toyed with Hiruzen Sarutobi.
He even saw how he publicly revealed his pathetic plan—which had been a Black Zetsu to him throughout his life—as a laughing stock!
At first, Madara Uchiha was angry.
He was furious that this brat dared to deny the " Eye of the Moon Plan," which he had dedicated his life to pursuing!
But gradually, his anger transformed into extreme shock!
Especially when he saw Uchiha Gen'yō catch the " Great Calamity Burial " with one hand, create a divine capital out of thin air, and even erase "existence" at will, his heart, which had long been hardened by Hashirama Senju, began to waver for the first time.
He suddenly realized how laughable and insignificant his so-called " Eye of the Moon Plan," a plan to create a false peaceful world using illusion Genjutsu, was in the face of this man who could create a "real heaven" at will!
And now, this man has pulled him back from his Pure Land in a way he can't even comprehend!
"Who... are you?"
Madara Uchiha spoke slowly.
His voice was hoarse and deep, yet it carried an undeniable kingly majesty.
These were his first words after his resurrection.
He didn't ask "Where is this?" or "Why did you resurrect me?"
Instead, it goes straight to the core—your origins.
Uchiha Gen'yō looked at the "ancestor" before him who bore some resemblance to himself but possessed a more arrogant and unruly temperament, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
Who I am is not important.
"The important thing is, Ban, you now have two choices."
"First, swear allegiance to me and become the sharpest sword under my divine dynasty's command, accompanying me to conquer the vast starry sea you've never seen before, and to challenge the true gods you've never imagined."
"Then I will grant you what you've always dreamed of—a chance to truly fight Hashirama Senju without hesitation."
Uchiha Gen'yō's words were like a bombshell, hitting Madara Uchiha hard in the heart!
A battle with Hashirama?!
His breathing instantly became rapid!
These four words held a fatal attraction for him!
That was his greatest obsession in life!
"What's the second option?"
Madara Uchiha forcibly suppressed the turmoil in his heart and asked coldly.
"The second option?"
Uchiha Gen'yō's smile deepened, but it was devoid of any warmth.
"That means I'll send you back to the Pure Land right now, and completely erase you, along with that 'Hashirama' you've been longing for Hashirama, from the very level of 'existence'."
"Let you and him, along with your ridiculous era, become a dream that never happened."
What do you think?
A blatant threat!
An undisguised threat from God!
Madara Uchiha's expression instantly turned extremely ugly!
His arrogant pride made him want to explode on the spot, wanting to show this ignorant brat the true power of Madara Uchiha!
But reason told him—he couldn't.
He had personally witnessed the other party's unfathomable power.
He knew that what the other person was saying was true.
He really can do it.
silence.
A deathly silence.
Everyone held their breath, watching the tense standoff between the strongest members of the Uchiha, both old and new.
Even Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke Uchiha were on tenterhooks.
They couldn't imagine what a cataclysmic disaster it would be if Madara Uchiha really chose to be an enemy of their lord!
After a long while.
Madara Uchiha slowly squeezed out a sentence, word by word, from between his teeth.
Why should I believe you can revive Hashirama?
The moment he uttered those words, it meant he had already made his choice in effect.
A hint of warmth finally appeared on Uchiha Gen'yō's face.
He knew that for a pure battle maniac like Madara Uchiha, nothing was more important than an opponent worthy of his full effort.
"Just for this."
Uchiha Gen'yō didn't even bother to explain; he simply snapped his fingers casually.
Buzz--!
Another pitch-black spatial rift quietly opened up beside Madara Uchiha.
Immediately afterwards, a man wearing deep red layered armor from the Warring States period, with long, straight black hair and a gentle smile on his face, slowly walked out of the crack.
The moment Madara Uchiha saw this man, his proud Rinnegan widened in shock!
For the first time, his perpetually icy face revealed an uncontrollable ecstasy and fighting spirit, like a child seeing a beloved toy!
" Hashirama --!!!!"
That's right, the newcomer is none other than the First Hokage, the God of Shinobi — Hashirama Senju!
He was also perfectly resurrected by Uchiha Gen'yō using the " Rinne Rebirth "!
"Hey, Ban."
Hashirama Senju, a signature hearty smile spreading across his face.
Long time no see, you look great!
However, before Madara Uchiha could rush up and fight him for three hundred rounds, Uchiha Gen'yō's calm voice rang out again.
" Hashirama, hold back your Chakra."
"Now is not the time for you to fight."
"Before you are given to Madara as a 'reward,' you have more important work to do."
Hashirama Senju's smile froze. He could feel an irresistible force of law instantly suppressing the vast, ocean-like Chakra within him.
He shrugged helplessly and looked at Uchiha Gen'yō.
"Okay, okay, I'll do as you say."
"But what do you mean by 'more important work'?"
Uchiha Gen'yō's gaze passed over them and landed on the vast land beyond the capital.
"It's very simple."
"Didn't you claim that planting trees was your forte?"
"Now I want you to plant a true ' World Tree ' for me, for our Uchiha, and for this new world!"
"A Tree of Creation, powerful enough to protect the entire planet and defend against invading 'locusts'!"
at the same time.
Just as the Shinobi World was plunged into a new wave of shock and panic due to the simultaneous resurrection of two legends.
Deep within a dark and damp underground base that no one had ever noticed.
Orochimaru stood in front of a huge culture tank, gazing intently at the ever-changing scene inside, composed of countless data streams.
The scene depicts Uchiha Gen'yō, Madara Uchiha, Hashirama Senju appearing together.
" Rinne Rebirth... the erasure of existence... Creation from nothing..."
Orochimaru stuck out his long tongue and licked his lips in a morbid manner, his golden snake eyes filled with an unprecedented, extreme thirst and greed for "truth".
"I see, I see..."
"Immortality is not the end of life."
"The realm of 'god' is actually like this..."
" Uchiha Gen'yō... you've given me a truly amazing surprise."
His lips curled into an extremely bizarre smile.
" Ōtsutsuki... the stars and the sea..."
"It seems my experiment is about to enter the next phase."
He slowly turned around and looked into the deeper shadows of the base.
In the shadows, a bespectacled, seemingly refined white-haired man stood quietly, rapidly jotting something down in a thick notebook.
It was Kabuto Yakushi.
"Pocket."
Orochimaru's voice was hoarse yet full of seductive charm.
"Are all our old 'collectibles' still there?"
The Kabuto Yakushi adjusted his glasses, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes behind the lenses.
"Yes, Lord Orochimaru."
"Whether it's members of the Akatsuki or those legendary Kage from the past, all the 'materials' are perfectly preserved."
"Very good."
Orochimaru nodded in satisfaction.
"Go, awaken them all."
"Tell them that the God of the New World is generously recruiting his 'apostles'."
"And we will offer him the most 'perfect' army."
"But before that, I need one more thing. A key item that will give us enough say in this 'Game of Gods'."
Orochimaru's gaze turned to the sky again, as if piercing through the thick layers of rock to see the bright moon hanging high in the sky.
"A... true Tenseigan."
"Kabuto, do you think those descendants of the Ōtsutsuki who now occupy the moon would be willing to 'lend' us a piece of their land?"
