Chapter 406: Three Kage vs. Uchiha Madara
Under Uchiha Madara's gaze, everyone standing on the roof felt their scalps tingling.

They were not clear about the opponent's identity, but they felt Uchiha Madara's power from the opponent's attack. This was a ninja with the strength reaching the level of Five Kage, or even stronger.

However, the ninjutsu used by this person should be the legendary Susanoo, which is not a ninjutsu exclusive to Uchiha. When did such a powerful ninja appear in Uchiha, which has been in decline for many years?

Thinking of this, everyone looked at the Fifth Hokage Tsunade, their eyes full of confusion.

Tsunade was also full of confusion. She felt that the man's attire was somewhat familiar, and his eyes were indeed the Uchiha clan's Mangekyō Sharingan, but she could not tell this man's name.

Could it be that Uchiha Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan was taken away by this person?
After a brief pause, Tsunade spoke:
"This person is an Uchiha, but he is not a ninja from Konoha. I am not very clear about his specific identity, but everyone please be careful, each pair of Mangekyō has different abilities."

"An Uchiha that even the Hokage doesn't recognize?"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

However, are there too many Uchiha people in the ninja world who possess Mangekyō? First, the masked man appeared, and then Uchiha Itachi and this mysterious and powerful Uchiha appeared.

But besides expressing their feelings, they also felt somewhat fortunate.

If all these Uchiha who possess the Mangekyō were loyal to Konoha, then Konoha's strength would be too exaggerated and it would crush the other major ninja villages.

At this time, Bai Ye, who was standing in the middle of the team, reminded:
"Everyone, let's talk about our feelings later. Let's find a way to deal with this mysterious Uchiha warrior. I feel that his strength is even stronger than the masked man!"

After Bai Ye's reminder, everyone looked at Uchiha Madara and Susanoo again.

Susanoo seems to be an unsolvable ability to ordinary ninjas, who can change the direction of regional wars by their own strength. But which ninja present is not a Kage-level strongman who can defeat a hundred people alone?

The sight of Susanoo cutting through the fortress doubled their pressure, but they also had the idea of ​​fighting it.

After looking at each other, Zabuza and Mei Terumi of Kirigakure took action. They first created thick fog near the fortress, and then under the cover of the fog, they began to attack Susanoo.

With a clang, Zabuza swung his beheading sword and slashed at Susanoo.

Immediately afterwards, cracks appeared on the surface of the beheading sword, and it broke into two halves. However, this was nothing for the beheading sword with regenerative ability. After pouring out the blood prepared in advance, the beheading sword returned to its original shape.

After seeing the beheading sword fail, Uchiha Madara chuckled and commented: "Is this the beheading sword of Kirigakure? It seems to be nothing more than this?"

However, the main ninja in Kirigakure was not Zabuza, but Mei Terumi, who had dual bloodlines.

After quickly forming seals with both hands, Mei Terumi spat out extremely corrosive concentrated acid, which was enough to corrode chakra and quickly created a large hole in Susanoo.

After successfully breaking the defense of Susanoo, Zabuza drilled into the interior of Susanoo and slashed at Uchiha Madara with his sword. Where the sword was swung, a swishing sound was made.

Uchiha Madara glanced at Zabuza and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

The next moment, Uchiha Madara disappeared out of thin air and appeared behind Zabuza. He kicked Zabuza in the back and kicked Zabuza out of Susanoo.

Susanoo was not idle either, wielding his two swords and slashing towards Mei Terumi.

Mei Terumi didn't have the confidence to take on the Susanoo double swords head-on, so she retreated back to the top of the fortress and stood with everyone again.

"The enemy is very powerful, even stronger than the Fourth Mizukage!"

Mei Terumi and Zabuza made a joint evaluation. They believed that Uchiha Madara's strength surpassed that of the Fourth Mizukage, and the Fourth Mizukage was a perfect jinchūriki and was still the strongest ninja in the Hidden Mist Village.

At this time, Ohnoki seemed to know something, sighed and said:

"Of course he is better than the Fourth Mizukage. To be frank, no one among the current Five Kage can match him. Even I feel a little scared when I see him."

Ōnoki is a veteran Kage-level warrior, and his strength is among the upper levels of Kage.

The other ninjas frowned upon seeing Ōnoki's assessment of the mysterious Uchiha's abilities.

Tsunade even asked Ohnoki directly: "Tsuchikage-sama, do you know the identity of this person? When did he leave Konoha? I have no impression of it at all."

Oonoki smiled bitterly and said:

"Princess Tsunade, of course you don't know his identity. Not many people in the ninja world remember his name now. In front of them, we, the so-called Five Kage, are just juniors."

"Who on earth is he? Lord Tsuchikage, please stop keeping us in suspense!"

Someone was dissatisfied with Oonoki Riddler's behavior and spoke up.

Ohnoki sighed again and said to Uchiha Madara in the distance:
"Although I am reluctant to believe it, you should be Uchiha Madara who was as famous as Senju Hashirama. After so many years, I didn't expect that you are still alive in the ninja world."

"Uchiha Madara?"

After hearing this name, the ninjas present were stunned.

They were not unfamiliar with the name Uchiha, which was the ninja who pacified the ninja world together with the God of Ninja and was known as the Shura of the Ninja World.

But didn't Uchiha Madara die in the Valley of the End? How could he appear here?

And even if Uchiha Madara was lucky enough to survive, he should be an old man in this era. How could he be so young?
Uchiha Madara also looked at Ohnoki, narrowed his eyes and said:

"Is it Ohnoki? I didn't expect that a young boy like you would become an old man now. However, you have grown a lot in age, but your strength has not improved much."

"Will you surrender obediently, or challenge me like you did last time?"

The familiar tone reminded Ohnoki of the fear he felt in the past. During the first Five Kage Tournament, he had followed the first Tsuchikage to participate in the Five Kage Tournament.

That night, he and his teacher were blocked by Uchiha Madara.

Being young and frivolous at that time, he challenged Uchiha Madara for the honor of the village. As a result, he and the second generation teacher lost to Uchiha Madara.

For him at that time, Uchiha Madara was the insurmountable mountain.

However, he was still a young boy at that time, but now he is the Third Tsuchikage who has ruled the Iwagakure Village for many years. It is time for him to make fun of the humiliation of the past.

After taking a deep breath, Ohnoki said slowly:
"Princess Tsunade, Scorpion of the Red Sand, let the three of us team up to deal with Uchiha Madara. He is the top ninja of the old era. We must join forces to have a hope of defeating him."

Tsunade nodded, agreeing to Oonoki's proposal.

Although she had never seen Uchiha Madara's strength, judging from the fact that Uchiha Madara was as famous as her grandfather, Uchiha Madara was definitely a strong man who surpassed the Five Kage. Facing such a strong man, fighting with more people against fewer people could no longer be considered evil.

Scorpion glanced at Bai Ye, then looked at Uchiha Madara not far away, and thought to himself that Lord Bai Ye was really good at playing, even summoning such an antique from the old times.

Can his puppet army really be a match for Susanoo?

Bai Ye responded to Scorpion with a look, meaning that Scorpion should do whatever he wanted and not have to worry too much.

After getting permission, Scorpion took out the storage scroll and said to Ohnoki, "Tsuchikage, I will accompany you and the Hokage to meet the legendary Shura of the Ninja World."

Before he finished speaking, the three of them disappeared from the roof and landed on the ground.

The moment he landed, Ōnoki rubbed his hands together, ready to use a large number of earth-style ninjutsu. Tsunade also performed Yin Seal Release and entered combat mode.

Scorpion even directly summoned dozens of steel puppets, and their troops pointed directly at Uchiha Madara.

Facing a fixed target like Susanoo, using Dust Release is naturally the best method. As the Dust Release light beam was emitted, Susanoo disintegrated and evaporated in an instant.

Uchiha Madara had long been accustomed to Susanoo being broken, and he fell lightly to the ground.

The advantage of Dust Release is its great destructive power, but its disadvantage is also very obvious. It can only attack moving targets. Once the enemy approaches, it will be difficult to use it again.

After the sudden attack approached Ohnoki, Ohnoki began to use earth-style ninjutsu.

After covering his body with a layer of earth-style armor, Ohnoki blocked Uchiha Madara's attack and used the rock fist that changed gravity to hit Uchiha Madara hard.

Uchiha Madara formed seals with his hands, used fire as cover, and avoided Oonoki's attack.

At this time, Tsunade, who had been prepared, attacked Uchiha Madara from the back. As if sensing Tsunade's strange power, Uchiha Madara automatically used Susanoo and resisted Tsunade's attack.

Tsunade's power should not be underestimated, and obvious cracks appeared on the surface of Susanoo.

Uchiha Madara also took the opportunity to cut Tsunade's arm with a kunai, landed steadily on the ground, and put away his contempt for Ōnoki and Tsunade.

"Nice earth escape ninjutsu, nice super strength attack."

Uchiha Madara looked at Ohnoki and Tsunade, and said with contempt: "It's a pity that your strength is too weak to bring out the true power of earth escape and super strength."

Oonoki sneered:

"Put aside your polite words. Ying's strength does not need your evaluation. Your strength is the same as it was decades ago, but I am no longer the old man I was back then."

Tsunade also mocked: "Uchiha Madara, although my super strength is not as good as my grandfather's, it is not so easy to bear. You must be in great pain now. Are all your internal organs aching?"

Uchiha Madara's expression turned cold, and he said, "You do have some strength, but what's there to be proud of if you defeated me with the advantage of numbers?"

Before Uchiha Madara could finish his words, the iron puppet submerged him like a tide.

These fearless steel puppets can hardly hurt Uchiha Madara, but they can hold him back, allowing Ohnoki to use the Dust Release technique without any scruples.

Uchiha Madara, surrounded by steel puppets, tries to find the chakra lines that control the puppets.

But after observing with the Sharingan for a while, Uchiha Madara still couldn't find the chakra line to control the puppet, so he looked at the Red Sand Scorpion beside him.

A smile also appeared on the corner of Scorpion's mouth.

He and Uchiha Madara are allies, but if he can use puppetry to defeat Uchiha Madara here, he will not refuse. This is a great opportunity to promote puppetry.

"The art of dust escape from the original realm!"

After confining Uchiha Madara to an area of ​​more than ten meters squared, Ohnoki once again used the Dust Release Original Realm Peeling Technique, and shot out the Dust Release Cube in his hand, causing a violent explosion.

Within the range of Dust Release, even the puppets made of steel were broken down into atomic form.

Uchiha Madara was also decomposed. Because his range of movement was restricted by the puppet, half of his body was evaporated by Dust Release. He lost one hand and one leg, and it was difficult for him to even stand.

Ōnoki was relieved to see his former nightmare reduced to such a state.

He walked towards Uchiha Madara step by step and said slowly:
"Uchiha Madara, as a remnant of the old times, you should not appear in today's ninja world, nor should you become a puppet of the masked man to carry out the plan to destroy the ninja world."

"You were once a powerful ninja that I feared, but now you can only wait for death again."

Scorpion looked at Uchiha Madara who had lost half of his body, and he felt that something was wrong. If Uchiha Madara only had this much strength, he should not be able to become a partner of Lord Byakuya.

Besides, the legendary Uchiha Madara couldn't possibly be only at this level.

Uchiha Madara stood on one leg, looked at Ohnoki and said, "Ohnoki boy, do you really think you won? Do you really think I am a puppet of the masked man? You are still as naive as you were back then."

Ohnoki's face changed slightly, and he wanted to use Dust Release to kill Uchiha Madara completely.

Tsunade came over to stop them and said, "Tsuchikage-sama, instead of killing Uchiha Madara right now, I think we should heal his wounds. Maybe we can get the whereabouts of the Jinchūriki from him."

Hearing this, Ōnoki quickly withdrew his hand.

Because of the appearance of this nightmare Uchiha Madara, he almost forgot the purpose of this meeting. They did not want to kill a certain ninja, but to retrieve the abducted Jinchūriki.

After taking a step forward, Tsunade came to Uchiha Madara's side.

When they were still more than ten meters away from Uchiha Madara, Tsunade frowned, subconsciously pulled Ōnoki back a dozen meters, and then said:
"Tsuchikage, there's something wrong with Uchiha Madara. Although he's injured, he's not bleeding."

After Tsunade's reminder, Ohnoki also found that something was wrong with Uchiha Madara. How could a ninja who had lost half of his body still be so arrogant?

At this moment, Uchiha Madara suddenly smiled and then began to transform.

Uchiha Madara suddenly lost his color and turned into a wooden sculpture. This is the ninjutsu that only the Wood Release Kekkei can use, the legendary wooden clone!
Looking at the wooden clone in front of him, Ohnoki's face turned pale, and he said tremblingly: "It's just a wooden clone. I defeated only a wooden clone."

Uchiha Madara laughed wildly:
"Of course it's just a wooden clone, but to be able to defeat my wooden clone, you five Kage of this term are barely qualified. However, are you ready for the next challenge?"
