Commander Uchiha, we respect and love you!

Chapter 166 Orochimaru escapes again
Having figured this out, Black Zetsu felt a deep despair. Madara Uchiha, this pawn, was completely useless. He had no ability whatsoever to oppose Kazuto Uchiha. It was likely that Madara Uchiha would run to the Land of Fire and, just as he was about to make a move against Kazuto Uchiha, he would collapse on the spot.

Kazuto Uchiha's power is practically an attack on the Land of Fire and Konoha. Even if you know Kazuto Uchiha's abilities, there's no way to defend against them. Do you think that unilaterally leaving the Land of Fire and Konoha means you've truly left?
It's useless. One-sided defection is meaningless and might even lead to being branded a traitor and turned into a screaming corpse.

"What should I do? What should I do..."

Black Zetsu pondered desperately. Uchiha Kazuto had become an insurmountable mountain on his path to resurrecting his mother. He realized that he couldn't think of any way to defeat Uchiha Kazuto.

"Is there really no way in this world to kill Uchiha Kazuto?"

Black Zetsu raised his head, filled with utter despair.

"Forget it, I'd better revive Uchiha Madara first."

In the end, Black Zetsu lowered his head helplessly; this was all he could do.

With this thought in mind, he left with Obito Uchiha in grief and began preparing to revive Madara Uchiha.

Meanwhile, the Akatsuki organization.

The others also noticed something was wrong; Nagato never returned.

Left with no other choice, Konan led the Akatsuki members to the Land of Fire to see what was going on.

In truth, Konan knew that Nagato was probably doomed, completely finished, but what could she do? Should she just ignore it?
Of the original trio, Yahiko is gone, and now Nagato is going to be gone too?
……

On the other side, at the edge of the battlefield, atop a hill.

"..."

At this moment, the three of them looked at the horrific battlefield in the distance, where blood flowed like rivers and limbs were scattered everywhere. Even Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had experienced the Fourth Shinobi World War, was deeply shocked. Such a terrifying battle was something he had never imagined. This was not like a battle between ninjas at all; it was a complete meat grinder.

"Uchiha Kazuto, I will definitely stop you! Such a terrifying sacrifice... Indeed, we cannot let such a madman rule the world!"

Hashirama Senju stared at the horrific battlefield and gritted his teeth, saying, "As expected, he was right. The ninja village is the best system. Ruling the world requires too much sacrifice and is too terrifying."

Hashirama Senju reaffirmed the system he had created. Clearly, neither Orochimaru nor Hiruzen Sarutobi told Hashirama that after his death, war broke out again, and it was even more bloody and intense than before. In the end, in order to compete for those few commissions, they even sent seven- or eight-year-old children to fight on the battlefield.

All of this was for the sake of protecting Konoha and for more mission slots, completely contrary to Hashirama Senju's original idea that establishing a village would bring peace and allow children to grow up happily.

Unlike now, where people can be resurrected no matter how many die, once the Uchiha and Toru completely rule the world, the internal wars within the ninja world will be almost over.

"It failed? How could it have failed?"

Nearby, Tobirama Senju noticed something was wrong. According to the plan, the resurrected soldiers should have arrived by now. How come so much time has passed, and even though the soldiers from the Land of Fire have arrived, they still haven't seen them? This... this isn't right.

“Masaka…” The next moment, Tobirama Senju summoned an experimental subject and, like Orochimaru, immediately used the Impure World Reincarnation technique. However, the result made Tobirama Senju’s face instantly darken.

"Tobirama, what's wrong?"

Seeing Tobirama Senju's state, Hashirama Senju realized that something was wrong.

"Big brother, something terrible has happened! The resurrection spell has failed!"

at this time.

"Teacher, let's run! It'll be too late if we don't run now!"

Orochimaru appeared beside them, looking anxious.

"Orochimaru, what exactly happened? How did we suddenly fail?"

Hashirama Senju stepped forward, looked at Orochimaru, and asked anxiously. He couldn't understand how the situation had suddenly turned so good, and how the resurrection jutsu had suddenly become useless. This was completely illogical.

"First Hokage, the resurrection technique is useless. Uchiha Kazuma has sealed the Pure Land by some means. Our plan has completely failed. Run! If we don't run now, we won't be able to escape later."

Orochimaru shook his head and said quickly, feeling utterly incredulous. He couldn't understand how Uchiha Kazuto had managed it. That was the Pure Land! Logically speaking, no one should be able to harm the Pure Land. This was completely illogical.

Unfortunately, no matter how illogical it is, this has already happened. Orochimaru can only accept it. It's like a sun that is supposed to exist for billions of years but is going to explode tomorrow. Whether you believe it or not, no matter how illogical it is, it is going to explode. What's the use of not understanding it? Will it affect the sun's explosion?

Fortunately, Orochimaru was used to it. Last time, he had fled in the same way, without even seeing the Uchiha or Tou. Anyway, he should just focus on staying alive and not worry about anything else. As long as he was alive, there was still hope.

Run! Run as far as you can.

Hashirama Senju didn't want to run; he wanted to fight and turn the tide of battle. Then Tobirama Senju dragged him away. Although Tobirama didn't know if Kazuto Uchiha's eyes would work on his older brother, he dared not gamble. If they did, they would be completely finished. Jiraiya and Tsunade were in a state that was no different from having a terminal illness.

He tried everything, but nothing made Jiraiya and Tsunade feel any better. What if Hashirama Senju ended up like that...?

Tobirama Senju could not imagine it.

The soldiers of the Allied Shinobi Forces finally realized that they had been deceived. There was no such thing as resurrection; once they were dead, they were truly dead. In an instant, the morale of the Allied Shinobi Forces collapsed. Coupled with the chaos caused by the Akatsuki organization earlier, this barely cobbled-together army instantly became a true mob.

"I surrender! I surrender! I'm not fighting anymore! I'm not fighting anymore! I don't want to die!"

Soon a soldier knelt down, wailing and begging for mercy, and then the soldier was killed on the spot by the ninja who was supervising the battle.

"Who wants to surrender? Are you going to abandon your country? Don't you want to protect your families? If you surrender now, what about all our previous efforts?"
