Chapter 273: 273
In the Hokage office, the atmosphere is solemn.
As far as Namikaze Minato knew, Tsunade had already gathered eight tailed beasts and half a Nine-Tails beast, and now she defeated the resurrected Madara Uchiha, she has a high probability of snatching the outsider golem from the latter.
As long as she wants, she can revive the outsider golem at any time, fuse with it, and become the ten-tails Jinchuriki. By then, Tsunade, who was originally invincible in the ninja world, will undoubtedly become stronger.
According to the current trend, she will become the second Sage of Six Paths, or even surpass the Sage of Six Paths.
And such a person did not appear in the future predicted by Great Toad Sage. On the contrary, it saw the blue-eyed boy Naruto Uzumaki, playing with the nine-tailed beast in his dream, who is the real son of prophecy and the savior of the world.
But Minato Namikaze didn't understand, how did his son Naruto Uzumaki do all this?
Could it be that Naruto will be able to defeat Tsunade in the future?
Minato slowly spoke out the doubts in his heart.
"Minato, you must have confidence in the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage. After all, the future he saw in his dreams has never been wrong. Hoshigaki Kisame's death has proved this very well."
Jiraiya patted Minato on the shoulder with a solemn look on his face, completely convinced of Gamamaru's prophecy.
"Jiraiya is right. What we have to do now is to wait patiently. Believe in Naruto, believe in Konoha's future."
Sarutobi Hiruzen also agreed in a deep voice.
'I hope so.'
Namikaze Minato said silently in his heart.
Meanwhile, somewhere in the ninja world.
"Madara-sama, you're awake. How are you feeling, are you feeling better?" Black Zetsu walked into the room, looked at Madara Uchiha lying on the bed, and asked.
"Although Tsunade won, I won't fall so easily."
Madara Uchiha snorted coldly and glanced down at half of his body. His arms and legs, which had been cut off by Tsunade's sword, had regrown under the power of his Hashirama cells and Rinnegan, and they were as good as ever.
However, Madara was able to escape from Tsunade this time, because of Obito who appeared in time. The latter rescued him with Kamui and took him to this secret base for recuperation.
Madara was already extremely disappointed with Obito, but Obito's outstanding performance this time made him decide to let the latter go.
Just as he is thinking of Obito, Obito came in.
"The outsider golem in Amegakure is gone. According to the description of the ninjas in the village, it was Tsunade who broke into the Akatsuki organization base before us and took the outsider golem away."
As soon as Obito entered the room, he said in a deep voice, with a solemn expression.
Madara fell into a short-lived coma after fighting with Tsunade before due to his injuries. During this period, Black Zetsu and Obito decided to rush to Amegakure to recover the outsider golem after discussing.
Unexpectedly, they were still a step too late.
"It really is her."
When Madara heard that, his Rinnegan shown fiercely with killing intent.
But he had to admit that Tsunade's strength greatly surpassed his, and she has now obtained an outsider golem, cutting off Madara's last hope.
There was no way he could defeat this her now.
"Madara-sama, what are you going to do next?" Black Zetsu asked tentatively.
Madara pondered for a moment, then his eyes flashed:
"No matter how powerful Tsunade is, she is only a person after all. Since we can't do anything about her for the time being, let's start with her and Kirigakure allies and see what information we can find."
"You mean Kumogakure?"
Black Zetsu replied, he then said hesitantly, "But I heard that Kumogakure is now ruled by the God of Lightning and Thunder. He claims to be a God who has lived for thousands of years, and he has even seen Sage of Six Paths."
Black Zetsu is actually at a loss for this sudden appearance of the God.
As the mastermind behind the ninja world, it has been hiding in the dark for hundreds of years, and knows everything about every piece of history in the past and the big and small secrets in the ninja world.
But even it has never heard of the existence of the new Raikage before. He appeared out of thin air, and in a very short period of time, he became Raikage, controlling Kumogakure and the entire Land of Lightning.
Black Zetsu has some concerns about this.
"Hmph, he is bluffing."
Madara snorted and said disapprovingly, "No matter what his origin is, I don't believe it, can he still be the second Tsunade?"
Although he lost to Tsunade, Madara was still full of confidence. In his eyes, in the entire ninja world, apart from Tsunade, no one could compete with him head-on.
Tsunade came first and he came second. The others were left far behind by the two of them.
"Madara-sama, when do we set off? I am also very interested in this Raikage." Seeing Madara's decision, Black Zetsu no longer persuaded him, but showed a look of anticipation.
"Now."
Madara stepped out of the door resolutely, and said, "I have a hunch that, as long as I catch that Raikage and torture him, we may get a glimpse of the secret to Tsunade's power from his mouth!"
So, the group of three left the hiding place and went straight to Kumogakure.
After one day.
Kumogakure, on the rooftop of the Raikage Building, two young and beautiful women were frowning and pacing back and forth.
They are none other than Raikage's two secretaries, Samui and Mabui, and the reason for their anxiety and confusion is very simple.
Raikage is gone.
A few days ago, when Samui walked into Raikage's office as usual to report, she found that the seat was empty.
At first, she thought that Raikage went out temporarily, so she didn't care too much, but even after a few days, he still didn't return.
The two searched around the village and the shrine and found no clues.
Under such circumstances, uneasy thoughts gradually formed in their minds.
Raikage wouldn't have abandoned Kumogakure, right? Was it because they or Kumo villagers did something wrong and let him down?
Just when the two couldn't help but think about it.
"The Raikage doesn't seem to be in the village. It seems that we are going to made the trip for nothing, Madara-sama."
A gloomy voice suddenly sounded behind Samui and Mabui.
"Who?!"
The two of them were startled, they turned around and looked around, only to see three strangers appearing on the top of the building at some point, with them unaware.
Madara crossed his chest with both hands, his eyes swept over Samui and Mabui, and ordered coldly:
"Catch these two women, we may get some useful information from them."
"Hai, Madara-sama."
Black Zetsu agreed and rushed towards the two. As soon as he attacked, one arm turned into dozens of wooden vines, shooting at the two like a group of snakes, trying to entangle them.
"Be careful."
In the face of this dark and strange enemy, Samui reminded Mabui, and without hesitation, she pulled out the thunder sword behind her, causing it to burst into a dazzling golden light.
'Swish.'
As Samui stabbed forward with a sword, the sword instantly extended, wrapped in golden thunder and lightning, the sound of lightning current was like a thousand birds chirping in unison, and performed a mighty blow.
'Kacha Kacha Kacha!'
Black Zetsu was astonished as the wooden vines it released were submerged by the oncoming thunder and lightning, and burst into pieces, turning into wood chips.
Immediately afterwards, it was pierced by the thunder sword, and the golden lightning filled its whole body, paralyzing it, turning into a pool of black liquid and falling to the ground.
"Madara-sama, save me!" Black Zetsu's panicked voice came from the pool of liquid. He was undoubtedly an excellent actor.
"Hmm, this power."
Madara snorted lightly, then his eyes fell on the Thunder Sword in Samui's hand, and then he instructed Obito, "Stop that woman, but don't destroy that sword."
Obito didn't say a word, held the chain, and charged towards Samui with a whoosh.
"You will die today."
Samui said coldly, once again waved the thunder sword, that was ten meters long and sweeped most of the roof, trying to cut Obitu in half.
However, to her surprise, the Thunder Sword did slash on Obito's body and passed through his body, but the man was unscathed, and his body did not even stagnate.
It was as if he was just a phantom, with no substance.
"How is this possible?!"
Samui was shocked, and before she recovered, she was bind with chains by Obito, unable to move.
At the same time, Mabui also launched an attack on Madara, and a golden lightning whip lashed out towards Madara.
'Snap!'
Madara Uchiha stretched out his hand, grabbed the whip easily, he gave a forceful tug, it caused Mabui to lose her balance and fall to the ground.
However, the numbness in the palm of his hand made Madara show a slightly surprised expression.
It's due to natural energy.
The weapons used by these two women contain a lot of natural energy, and can convert that energy into lightning in battle.
'Interesting.'
These two weapons must have come from the the God of Lightning and Thunder.
Thinking of this, Madara became very interested in the new Raikage.
"Mabui, are you alright!" Samui asked with concern when her face when she saw her fall.
"You can't even protect yourself, do you still care about your companions?" Obito said with a smile, tightening the chain in his hand, and immediately restrained Samui tightly, making her unable to breathe.
"It seems that your Raikage will not appear."
Black Zetsu returned to human form, got up from the ground, laughed at Samui, then turned to look at Madara Uchiha, "Madara-sama, he must have sensed your strength, and was so scared that he abandoned his subordinates and the village, an escaped early."
'Madara Uchiha?'
When the two of heard that, they stared at Madara Uchiha in surprise, suddenly their hearts sank, and they lost their voices: "You are Madara Uchiha?"
A few days ago, Madara Uchiha and Tsunade broke out in a world-shattering war in Kirigakure, and the news naturally spread to Kumogakure.
"Yes, it's me."
Madara sneered, and then said, "Although I came here in vain, I have already come, and I can't justify not doing anything. I heard that Kumogakure is an ally of Kirigakure, then I will destroy this village, and kill all the villagers."
As soon as he said that, under the terrified eyes of the two, Madara Uchiha lifted his feet off the ground, slowly floated into the air, and opened his arms.
"Does he want to use that technique, the technique that was used by Nagato to destroy Sunagakure?" Samui's pupils shrank, her heart sinking to the bottom.
Mabui's face too turned ashen, her eyes became desperate.
A few years ago, Nagato, the then owner of Rinnegan, completely wiped out Sunagakure with Super Shinra Tensei, shocking the entire ninja world.
And now, this terrible scene seems to be repeated in Kumogakure.
"Samui-sama! Mabui-sama!"
At this time, more than a dozen Kumo Anbu ninjas rushed to the rooftop and surrounded Obito and Black Zetsu. The battle just now has alarmed the entire Kumogakure, and more ninjas are coming to support.
"Feel the despair, two beautiful ladies."
Obito raised his head and glanced at Madara Uchiha in the sky. He had no intention of entanglement with the enemy. After he ruthlessly dropped these words, he grabbed Black Zetsu's shoulders and used his Kamui to leave, and moved to the outside of Kumogakure.
After all, Shinra Tensei attacked indiscriminately, and they didn't want to stay and be buried with Kumogakure.
Samui came to Mabui, and the two looked at each other and hugged tightly.
At this moment, they knew that there was nothing they could do, so they could only close their eyes, pray silently in their hearts, and call out that name reverently.
'Kami-sama!'
In mid-air.
Madara Uchiha's robes fluttered, and his frantic long hair fluttered in the wind behind his head. His face was expressionless, like a God looking down at the earth and the small beings in Kumogakure.
"I, Madara Uchiha, announce that Kumogakure will be destroyed today."
His cold voice, like an edict, spread far and wide, floating in the sky above Kumogakure. At the end, he added with a sneer, "Remember, it was Tsunade who killed you, who made Kumogakure ally with Kirigakure."
On the ground, countless Kumo ninjas and villagers raised their heads in horror, and the whole village fell into a huge panic.
In everyone's despair, Madara Uchiha's arms were fully unfolded, and his Rinnegan released a terrifying wave of power, and he was about to say Shinra Tensei, to launch a devastating blow.
"Shinra"
However, as soon as Madara uttered the first word, a thunderclap exploded in the sky above his head, interrupting him.
'Um?'
Madara was startled, he raised his head to look up, and his expression changed rapidly in the next second.
Because, he saw an extremely dazzling golden lightning, like a giant dragon with a body length of 100 meters and dancing claws, drilled out of the clouds in the sky, and instantly choked down at him.
It's speed is so fast that it cannot be avoided. After all, it is the real lightning.
'Boom!'
Under the shocking gazes of countless people, Madara Uchiha let out a roar, and his entire figure was instantly shrouded in golden lightning.
Between the heavens and the earth, the endless golden rays of light were flooded, and everyone had to close their eyes, only the roar of thunder came to their ears.
After a long time, the light dissipated, and everyone on the ground could finally open their eyes again.
'What happened?'
In an instant, Samui, Mabui, Obito, Black Zetsu, and all the ninjas and villagers of Kumogakure looked at the sky.
They saw Madara Uchiha, with his hair standing straight, his skin scorched black, with only a pair of shorts left, falling from the sky.
