Chapter 98 You're Tsunade's grandson, right?

"Naruto?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart clenched. How could he have stumbled into this deadly predicament?

He had witnessed Naruto's talent in the Central Tower and thought he would need another ten years to grow.

But today's battle to protect the crane completely stunned him!
A twelve-year-old went head-to-head with a tailed beast and even used it as a punching bag? That strength is simply monstrous!

Was the First Generation Lord this strong when he was twelve years old?
Sarutobi dared not imagine how strong Konoha would become when Naruto grew up.
But this glorious future is about to be ruined in this purple cage!

It's all because of these two unkillable monsters resurrected by Edo Tensei!

Is Shukaku struggling against Naruto?
But for the first generation, crushing that sand cat was easier than breathing!
The difference is too big!
It’s over! It's all over!

This genius, a once-in-a-century talent in Konoha, no, a once-in-a-millennium genius, the sun that carries the village's hopes, is about to be extinguished in this cage of certain death!
"It's my fault that Konoha is in trouble!"

The third generation's eyes were bloodshot, his nails dug into his flesh, he hated himself to the core!

If I hadn't been soft-hearted and let Orochimaru go back then, where would I be today?

and many more!

Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly froze!

This is the Four Purple Flame Formation! How did Naruto get in so silently?
A huge mystery instantly dispelled the despair!
Orochimaru's snake-like eyes narrowed dangerously; he was very curious about the kid's "method" of passing through walls.

Could there be a flaw in this Four Purple Sun Formation?
If this blond-haired kid can come in, then can others come in too?

but
His confidence surged as he glanced at the two war gods beside him!
With the First and Second Hokage plus him, he could easily take on the entire Hidden Leaf Village alone. What could possibly go wrong?
"Old Hokage, don't get agitated."

Whoosh!
With a flash of golden light, he was already standing casually outside the Four Purple Flame Formation, even waving triumphantly into the formation: "Look, I'm out."

Whoosh! The figure flashed again: "Look, I'm back in!"

"Hey, I'm out again, and I'm back in!"

In just a few breaths, Naruto flashed repeatedly, jumping back and forth on the barrier "frame," going in and out repeatedly.

Within the formation:

Hiruzen Sarutobi: My head hurts a little.

Orochimaru's snake-like eyes contracted, and the veins on his forehead throbbed.

This kid's got a bit too cocky!

However, the turmoil in the Third Generation's heart quickly subsided.

"This kid actually learned the Flying Thunder God Technique? And it's only been a month, right?"

After the initial surprise and doubt, a surge of joy welled up within me!
Even if defeat is inevitable today, Naruto can at least survive with this divine skill!

The flame of Konoha will never be extinguished!

At this point, he felt at ease.

This sense of security also tempered his resolve to fight to the death!

Those cloudy old eyes suddenly cleared like an ancient pool: "Enough!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice boomed like a bell as he took a step forward! His aged body suddenly straightened like a mountain that had stood firm for a thousand years!
Today, I will use these old bones to weld this wicked disciple to his death in this inescapable hellish formation, for you and for Konoha.

Until death!

"Old man! I'm here to help you!"

Naruto's figure appeared like a ghost, flashing past his side.

"Huh? Nonsense."

Ha! Naruto doesn't care about any of that. Such a great stage, giving it all to you alone, wouldn't that be a waste?
In that case, let's say hello!
His fingers moved like the wind, and a "noon" seal was completed in an instant!

boom--

Before the ninjutsu could be fully formed, a torrent of primal chakra, as powerful as a hurricane, burst forth from Naruto's small body simply by forming hand seals.

The rocks beneath their feet, unable to withstand the immense pressure, cracked and shattered instantly!
Caught off guard, Hiruzen Sarutobi was thrown back by the surge of pure energy, his robes fluttering wildly like tattered flags in a storm.

"Fire Escape·The Great Fire Extinguishes!"

laugh--

A thin, dark red flame, as thin as a needle tip, drifted away from her lips.

In the next instant, something unexpected happened!

The tiny flames swelled in the wind, like a raging inferno from hell.

The blazing flames expanded wildly, engulfing everything in sight!

"!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's pupils shrank to pinpoints, and all attempts to dissuade him were extinguished by the scorching breath poured down his throat.

All that remained before them was the blazing inferno that stretched to the ends of the earth.

The terrifying heat turned trees into charcoal and glazed tiles into crystals.

The temperature was high enough to melt the air. It even caused the solid Four Purple Flame Array light barrier to emit a piercing sound as if it were about to melt.

In the embers of the fire.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind exploded with the same soul-searching question as Sasuke: Is this still Fire Release?

Gee tut.

Seeing this, Naruto was not very satisfied.

This barrier doesn't seem to be working either!
If even a tiny flame can make it tremble like this, what will its ultimate attack be like?

This stage is so unfair!
For a moment, Naruto felt a little regretful. He should have reformed Orochimaru's four underlings as well.

If it were the Four Red Yang Formation, it probably wouldn't be so precarious!

However, Orochimaru probably won't be able to escape the eyes of the dazed, modified clone.

Can.
He glanced down out of the corner of his eye.

In addition to the audience who had been held captive by the illusion, hundreds of ninjas, their jaws dropping in astonishment, crowded in from all sides!
Everyone's pupils dilated, their jaws dislocated, and they stared blankly at the "small flames" on the roof that almost burned the sky!
"Viewers also count for ratings! We can't afford to lose them!"

Naruto muttered, "Old man! I'll help you share some of the burden!"

Before the sound faded, the person had already transformed into a golden ray of light and shot into the scorching embers.

Chakra perception swept across like a radar, and it found the marker nearby. Whoosh! A flash of golden light, and it instantly moved in.

bang——

With a clean and decisive whip kick, Orochimaru was sent flying like a sack of potatoes.

At the same time, use both hands simultaneously!
clap clap!

He precisely imprinted the Flying Thunder God mark onto the First and Second Generations with both palms, instantly like a brand!

Then, he pulled the two of them apart with both hands.

A flash of golden light, and the trio vanished on the spot!

But at the very moment of leaping into space.

boom! boom!
The First and Second Hokage reacted at full speed, unleashing two powerful chakra punches, each strong enough to shatter a mountain, that slammed into Naruto's chest!

Bang—Ripples spread through the space.

This happened during the transfer, but Naruto managed to catch him.

Those two attacks were terrifying.

Naruto's chest was dented from the bombing, and when he checked his health bar, he found that it had dropped by 0.1%.

It takes a full 36 seconds for the health to passively recover.

Ha ha.

The three figures flashed and reappeared outside Konoha Village.

Naruto was familiar with this place: the Forest of Death.

The trees that were damaged before will be repaired this time!

Moreover, this range is neither too far nor too near.

This place serves as a battlefield, allowing the people of Konoha to witness the battle firsthand.

Now that the stage is set, let the real battle begin.

Before this
Naruto twitched his fingertips slightly, quietly loosening some of the control over the Edo Tensei body, at least removing the shackles of speech.

He has never seen the first and second generations in reality.

The training ground only has NPCs, which have no intelligence whatsoever.

He was very curious.

What kind of people were the first two Hokage of Konoha?

My consciousness had just returned.
"Hey! Boy!"

Hashirama Senju suddenly stepped forward, his large fan-shaped hand almost pointing at Naruto's nose: "That fire jutsu that just burned the sky! What's your relationship with Madara Uchiha?"

Clearly, the two of you still retain the memory of what just happened.

"Big brother!"

Tobirama Senju's voice was cold and sharp. He didn't move, but his scarlet eyes locked onto Naruto's hair: "How does his dazzling blond hair resemble those black-haired hedgehogs of the Uchiha clan?"

"what?"

Hashirama froze for half a second, then suddenly slapped his forehead: "Oh right, right right! Hahaha!"

A hearty laugh sent the withered leaves rustling: "In my haste, I forgot the colors!"

He moved closer to Naruto, examining him from head to toe as if studying a rare ninja beast, lingering particularly on the surging, ocean-like chakra.

Suddenly his eyes widened: "Wait... this chakra, this hair color!"

He slapped his thigh excitedly: "Could it be that you're Tsunade's son? I'm your great-grandfather! Your great-grandson!"

"Shut up, bro!"

Tobirama's temples throbbed with veins, and he rubbed his forehead in exasperation: "Use your brain! That little monkey that just appeared has wrinkles big enough to trap flies! Tsunade is at least fifty!"

He glanced coldly at Naruto and said, "This kid is at most twelve or thirteen years old!"

Hashirama scratched his head, lost in a brief but serious mathematical reverie.
Then it dawned on him: "Oh—that must be Tsunade's grandson, right?"

Tobirama nodded silently, his red eyes carrying a hint of scrutiny and a faint expectation.

This twelve or thirteen-year-old boy has an enormous amount of chakra, terrifying fire-style techniques, and can even use the Flying Thunder God Technique.

They would be very pleased if it were their descendants.

Naruto was speechless as he watched the two of them sing in unison.

He couldn't even get a word in edgewise.

Moreover, the First Generation!
Your image in my mind, Naruto Uzumaki's mind, has completely collapsed!
The First Hokage who founded Konoha and changed the ninja world was actually a goofball!

Who would have thought of this?
"cough"

He cleared his throat, his face calm: "Stop! My name is Naruto Uzumaki, not Senju."

swirl?!
Upon hearing this surname, the first generation leader suddenly thought of his wife.

Tobirama frowned even more, his gaze sweeping over Naruto's excessively bright blond hair once more.

Naruto shrugged, looking helpless: "Hair? I guess my mom's genes are too strong. She dyed my red hair gold, right?"

Before he could finish speaking, his fingertips tightened with intent: Forced Overwrite of the Impure Earth Command—Attack!
hum!
Hashirama and Tobirama froze simultaneously, their previously relaxed muscles instantly becoming as stiff as iron!
Consciousness was abruptly locked by the cold command!

"Naruto!!"

Hashirama roared urgently, his voice even sounding torn from the violent struggle: "Run! Find the sealing team! Your little fire jutsu isn't even enough to fill our teeth!"

"Humph!"

Tobirama snorted coldly, but it contained an unprecedented anxiety: "My current state surpasses my peak in life! Yet I can't even tear open the Impure World's restraints!"

He glared at Naruto and said sharply, "Kid! If you want to live, run now!"

Naruto ignored their warnings.

"Sorry, I won't run away."

He clasped his hands together, looked up, and flashed a bright smile: "Because of this stage... I've been looking forward to it for so long!"
