"Of course, he is, after all, Demigod of the Ninja World."
Tsunade took a deep breath and watched as Hanzo of the Salamander left, finally relaxing.
By this time, the main battlefront would probably be over.
"It's really unbelievable, we actually managed to suppress Hanzo of the Salamander."
After catching his breath a few times, Jiraiya gradually calmed down.
Orochimaru shrugged and said, "We have to thank Uya for repeatedly blocking Hanzo of the Salamander's attacks, but..."
At this point, Orochimaru's lips curled into a slight smile, and a strange light flickered in his snake-like eyes as he looked at Uya and said, "I still want to see Uya suppress Hanzo of the Salamander."
Uya shook his head and said, "I can't do it yet."
Jiraiya, listening to Orochimaru and Uya's conversation, couldn't help but chuckle and said, " Uya, how old are you? You already possess such astonishing strength. Perhaps you really have a chance to reach the level of Hanzo of the Salamander. Hmm, you should be able to by twenty."
A ninja's peak period is generally between the ages of twenty and thirty.
The period of rapid growth for most ninjas is between the ages of ten and sixteen. It is rare for someone like Kakashi to graduate at the age of five and become Chunin the age of six.
"Twenty years old..."
Uya listened to Jiraiya's words but didn't say anything, instead shaking his head inwardly.
Uchiha Itachi awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan at the age of thirteen, and once the Mangekyo is awakened, one basically steps directly into the Peak Kage Level.
As for Uya, as long as he opens the Fourth Gate of the True Eight Gates Released Formation and advances the Quake Release to the Fourth Stage, he will reach the Peak Kage Level!
Speaking of which, Uya has survived the Second Shinobi World War, but what he will face next is the Third Shinobi World War.
The combat power of Second Shinobi World War was actually much lower than that of Third Shinobi World War. In Third Shinobi World War, the Third Raikage could fight against thousands of enemies single-handedly, and the Yellow Flash Minato Namikaze dominate the battlefield, killing Jonin as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.
With Uya's current strength, few could defeat him on the battlefield of Second Shinobi World War, but by Third Shinobi World War, he would still not be able to dominate the battlefield.
He needs to become stronger, and he needs to unlock the Fourth Gate Fifth Gate, and even Sixth Gate of the True Eight Gates Released Formation!
" Hanzo of the Salamander... did he run away?!"
Yahiko rubbed his eyes, still feeling somewhat incredulous.
Konan, who was standing next to him, nodded, a hint of amazement in her beautiful eyes, and said, "It was Teacher Uya and the others who won."
"Shall we go over now?"
Yahiko glanced at Orochimaru and the others beside Uya, and hesitated slightly.
Uya was alright, but Orochimaru looked rather unsettling, and the other Konoha Ninja didn't seem like kind guys either.
"Isn't Teacher Uya here?"
After a slight hesitation, Konan smiled and said, "With Teacher Uya here, everything will be fine. Let's go over there; it's been so long since we last saw each other."
"All right."
Yahiko nodded upon hearing Konan's words, feeling relieved.
That's right. With Uya around, even if the other Konoha Ninja look intimidating, they can't do anything to Uya.
" Nagato, let's go together and see Teacher Uya."
"Mmm... uh..."
Nagato's red hair obscured her eyes, her voice was hesitant, and a slight tremor ran through her heart.
He still clearly remembers what happened that day; his parents died at the hands of ninjas, those ninjas wore those Forehead Protector on their foreheads.
Yahiko and Konan were unaware of Nagato's past. They both stood up and walked towards where Uya and the others were.
Nagato reached out his hand, intending to call out to Yahiko and Konan, but he didn't know how to start. He wanted to follow them, but he didn't want to go.
His constant hesitation made his mind increasingly confused.
A hidden underground location in the Shinobi World.
The colossal Demonic Statue of the Outer Path stood there, with several tubes extending from Demonic Statue of the Outer Path and inserted into Madara Uchiha 'Madara Uchiha back, constantly infusing him with Chakra and life force to sustain his Madara Uchiha.
" Lord Madara, Uya led the Konoha ninjas to victory against Hanzo of the Salamander."
"Is that so? Then this kid does seem quite outstanding." Madara Uchiha slightly raised his head, revealing a rare hint of emotional fluctuation.
But that's all. The news of defeating Hanzo of the Salamander, which was enough to shake the Shinobi World, meant nothing to Madara Uchiha.
It's like two ant colonies fighting; one powerful ant kills the enemy queen. Would a passing human marvel at the ant's strength?
"By the way, Lord Madara, Nagato is right there, and it seems he's about to make contact with Uya. What should we do?"
"Um?"
Upon hearing this news, Madara Uchiha frowned.
He wanted to suggest waiting and seeing, but Uya's Quake Release Kekkei Genkai Madara Uchiha somewhat puzzled.
After a long while, Madara Uchiha's expression became serious.
"It's best to avoid letting them have contact. I can't quite figure out that kid; he might hinder my plans... The plan absolutely cannot fail."
His tone was serious, and then Madara Uchiha slowly closed his eyes.
At this time, Madara Uchiha's eyes were ordinary Sharingan. After transplanting the Rinnegan to Nagato, he simply had White Zetsu give him a pair of Sharingan to use temporarily.
However, even an ordinary Sharingan would be completely different when placed in Madara Uchiha's eye socket!
Upon seeing this, White Zetsu, who was standing to the side, immediately showed a look of solemnity and awe.
Buzz!!
The next instant, Madara Uchiha suddenly opened his eyes, and the three Tomoe shone brightly.
Despite having only Mitsudomoe Sharingan, it suddenly unleashed a powerful ocular force that even the Mangekyō Sharingan couldn't match!
Even though the Rinnegan was with Nagato, Madara Uchiha still retained some of the Six Paths eye power.
This power of the eye seemed to ignore spatial distance, instantly affecting a very distant place and connecting with the Rinnegan belonging to Madara Uchiha.
The Land of Rain.
After Hanzo of the Salamander was defeated and fled, Uya, Orochimaru, and the others looked around the battlefield.
It was an extremely tragic scene. Although they had won, almost all of the other elite Konoha ninjas were dead, as were the elite Rain Ninja ninjas.
Most of Konoha's ninjas didn't die at the hands of the Rain Ninja's elite forces, but rather at the hands of Hanzo of the Salamander.
They are too weak, so weak that they can't even protect anyone; they are just a burden.
Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade initially tried to recruit them and have them join forces, but they later discovered that they were no match for Hanzo of the Hanzo of the Salamander and were easily killed in just a few moves.
It could protect them for a short time, but not indefinitely, and in fact, it almost allowed Hanzo of the Salamander to turn the tables on them.
"They're all dead."
Jiraiya looked at the blood-soaked arena and took a deep breath.
At that moment, Orochimaru's eyes suddenly flashed slightly, and he said, "No, they're not all dead yet."
"Um?!"
Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru with slight surprise.
Orochimaru's gaze held a strange glint as he turned to look in one direction and said, "There are still a few guys hiding over there."
In the next instant, Orochimaru prepared to eliminate the few people he sensed.
But at that moment, Uya reached out and stopped Orochimaru's actions.
"No need."
After stopping Orochimaru, Uya's eyes showed a hint of surprise as he looked up at the high place above.
It's Konan Yahiko...
Although his sensory abilities are not as good as Orochimaru's, he can still detect when Yahiko and Konan approach him.
Is it fate? Or something else?
He eventually reunited with them after defeating Hanzo of the Salamander, but since they were his disciples, it was clear that they could no longer have any connection with Jiraiya.
After shaking his head, Uya didn't bother to think about it anymore. He smiled and took a few steps forward, looking at Yahiko and Konan who were running towards him.
"It's been a long time, Yahiko, Konan."
"Teacher Uya." (To be continued.)
