The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

"Brother, are you okay?"

The Senju clan gave up the pursuit, which undoubtedly made Madara and Izuna heave a sigh of relief.

Although Madara's last move looked fierce, it was actually just a bluff.

If the Thousand Hands Clan really pursues them, they will have to escape separately.

"nothing."

Madara raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.

Maybe Izuna hasn't felt it yet, but Madara, who has frequently used Susanoo's second stage since opening his eyes, consumes far more power than Izuna.

Madara had vaguely noticed that the scene in front of him was a little blurry.

"Damn it...it seems that the self-sealing of the Mangekyou Sharingan is real..." Madara said silently.

Although there are records within the clan, no one can easily accept the fact that this powerful power can seal itself before experiencing it for themselves.

But now, the blurry scenes in front of him all confirmed the authenticity of this record.

He knew that if he wanted to avoid blindness, his only option was to use the Mangekyo Sharingan as little as possible.

"But...if I don't have this power, how can I compete with Hashirama?"

Although he didn't want to admit it, Madara had to say that he had absolutely no idea what to do when facing Hashirama.

Susanoo, with his full strength, could certainly suppress Hashirama, but it was extremely difficult to defeat or even kill Hashirama.

Moreover, during the stalemate between the two, Hashirama seemed to have his own blood pack.

Chakra consumption? No big deal.

How big or small the injury is? It will be fine in a while.

As long as it is not fatal, any other attack is a piece of cake for Hashirama.

Therefore, during the Battle of the Valley of the End, Madara was able to defeat Hashirama and died two years after the battle. Even the powerful vitality of the immortal body could not be restored. It can be seen that in that battle, both of them had the intention of killing each other.

Awakening to fight desperately.

As for the battle in the Valley of the End that some people said in the previous life, Madara only wanted to obtain Hashirama's cells and did not want to kill Hashirama. In fact, it is simply untenable.

Thinking of Hashirama's terrifying strength, but he was limited by the flaws of the Mangekyō Sharingan, Madara's eyes were filled with haze for a moment.

…

When Hanzo saw the information about the battle between the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan, it was already two days later.

Ever since the Shimada clan set a time for their return, the family's resources have begun to lean toward the Fire Country.

It's like moving to the land of water. On the surface, it seems like a quick trip.

In fact, the intelligence agents of the Shimada clan were already operating in the Kingdom of Water long after their headquarters was moved to the eastern part of the Kingdom of Fire.

Although the intensity has not been great, over the past few years, the Shimada clan has become well aware of the situation in the Kingdom of Water.

Under this premise, the Shimada clan could quickly start migrating after making a decision.

The same is true now. Intelligence agents who were originally active in various parts of the Kingdom of Water began to sneak into the Kingdom of Fire in batches, and their intelligence capabilities are much stronger than before.

In addition, some of the revamped industries that Yi Teng left behind before leaving the Country of Fire are now beginning to play a role. All kinds of information from the Country of Fire are continuously being transmitted to the Shimada clan.

"The power of Susanoo is really terrifying. Even Senju Hashirama was completely suppressed by him."

After reading the information sent by Hanzo, Zhongnian sighed.

"But it seems that Uchiha Madara is still inferior to Senju Hashirama." Chongnian added.

His vision was so vicious. Although the intelligence personnel did not dare to approach the battlefield rashly due to their strength, so the description of the intelligence was a little abstract, he still discovered the fact that Hashirama forced Madara to retreat from the clues.

"This is also a good thing." Hanzo said from the side: "Although Hashirama is stronger than Madara, the gap between the two is limited. Presumably after the decisive battle fails, the two races will start small-scale testing and consumption. In the long run, the strength of the two races will

It will also be weakened.”

Zhongnian nodded: "Indeed, but I am not worried about the family's basic combat strength. What I want to know is whether you and Genji can compete with these two brothers."

Seeing Hanzo looking at him, Zhongnian laughed at himself: "Both Uchiha Tajima and Senjubutsuma are dead. I am older than both of them. Although my strength is at its peak, I also know that from now on I

The strength will only become weaker and weaker. In the future, if the family wants to unify the Fire Nation, it will still need to rely on you and Genji."

Hanzo was silent for a moment after hearing this: "I am confident that I can compete with or even suppress Madara and Hashirama, but I want to defeat them..."

With that said, Hanzo shook his head, stood up, and slowly walked out of the Shimada clan's intelligence department.

Looking at the blue sky outside, he was a little lost in thought.

As the reincarnations of Ashura Otsutsuki and Indra Otsutsuki of this generation, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha were born with a pass to the top of the ninja.

In the history of the ninja world for thousands of years, those who dare to say that they are firmly stronger than the Asura and Indra brothers are nothing more than their father and grandmother.

There is even a question mark as to whether their uncle Hamura Otsutsuki is better than the two.

It is too difficult for such chakra reincarnations to defeat them.

Is Hanzo strong?

Very strong.

At the age of seventeen, he has developed the black dragon pattern to a very advanced level, and he also has the physique of a natural immortal.

In terms of strength and potential, he has surpassed 99.999% of the ninjas in the ninja world.

He was even sure that when facing Hashirama and Madara at their peak in the future, Hanzo was confident that he would not be weaker than them.

But once he reaches that point, he has reached the top.

If he wanted to break through this boundary and reach the so-called "immortal" level, Hanzo had no clue.

From ancient times to the present, there are two types of people who transcend the "God of Ninja" and reach the level of "Sage".

The first one is like Kaguya Otsutsuki, who ate the fruit of the sacred tree and combined the five elements and the seven chakra attributes of yin and yang into one, gaining the power of the Blood Snare, and then became one with the sacred tree.

Slightly beyond the "immortal" level.

The second is to become a Jinchūriki of the sacred tree like the later Sage of the Six Paths, Obito the Six Paths, and Madara the Six Paths, and reach the "Sage" level through the power of the sacred tree.

Of course, among the three, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, the Sage of the Six Paths, had already stepped into the "Sage" level before becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki.

That's why he was able to join forces with Otsutsuki Hamura to defeat and seal Kaguya.

Otherwise, if they had not reached this level, they would not even be qualified to fight Kaguya.

It can be seen from this that there are three key points if you want to break through the limits of ninjas and enter the restricted areas of mortals.

"Fruit of the Divine Tree", "Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki", "Blood Successor Snare".

As long as you complete one of the three, no matter you step in with one foot or whatever, you will become a member of the "Immortal" club.

But the appearance of the sacred tree requires not only gathering the chakra of the nine tailed beasts, but also summoning the outer demon statue of the ten-tailed body.

Black Jue has been stuck on this step for thousands of years.

Without the Samsara Eye, one cannot even summon a heretic demon, let alone reshape the sacred tree.

Therefore, for Hanzo, the two options of the Sacred Tree Fruit and the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki are either feasible or not.

"So...the Blood Successor Snare..."

…
