Born with a great love for the Uchiha

Such a big, thick, and strong hand...

Let alone humans.

They could probably catch a tailed beast with their bare hands!

Before today.

The strongest ninja Nagato had ever heard of was Uchiha Gen, the god of ninjas in the new era.

But he was the strongest ninja he had ever met.

I am not talented.

It was Nagato himself!

Aside from him, the "Kami (God)" himself.

The strongest ninja Nagato ever encountered was none other than Hanzo the Salamander, the former leader of Amegakure!

Hanzo the Salamander was a very strong ninja.

As early as during the Second Shinobi World War.

Hanzo of the Salamander single-handedly defeated the Konoha forces led by the young Sannin and bestowed the title of "Sannin" upon Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Tsunade.

Even compared to the Third Hokage, Third Raikage, and Third Tsuchikage of the same era.

Hanzo the Salamander is no less powerful.

This former leader of Amegakure was an incredibly ruthless man who dared to declare war on the Land of Fire, the Land of Wind, and the Land of Earth simultaneously.

The ninja world generally considers Hanzo of the Salamander to be the pinnacle of ninja skill.

Even with such formidable strength, Hanzo the Salamander.

Even in front of Pain, he was as weak as an ordinary Konoha Jonin.

Simultaneously.

Nagato only called himself "Kami" after he utterly defeated Hanzo of the Salamander.

Isn't someone whose strength surpasses that of a ninja who has already reached their peak a "god"?

Before officially engaging in combat with Hashirama Senju.

A figure briefly flashed through Nagato's mind.

That was the figure of Kakuzu, who had tirelessly boasted to the Akatsuki members that "I fought against the First Hokage."

Even a mere Kakuzu could fight the First Hokage.

That so-called "God of Ninjas" is probably nothing more than that.

But when Nagato witnessed Hashirama Senju's power firsthand...

He was confused.

He was furious.

Kakuzu, you've ruined me!!!

Meanwhile, Hashirama Senju cleanly and efficiently dealt with Pain of the Asura Path.

The other Pain clones are also in a bad situation.

The animal realm is naturally superior.

After only one exchange, Jiraiya seized the opportunity and used the "Wild Lion's Mane Technique" to control him on the spot.

Even the crab summoned by the Animal Path was captured by Jiraiya.

The Hell Path faces Tobirama Senju.

The battle ended much faster.

The Second Hokage threw out a kunai, and with a simple and unadorned Flying Thunder God Slash, he directly pierced through the puppet body of the Hell Path.

Any ninja who is unaware of the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Faced with the instantaneous teleportation assassination of the [Flying Thunder God Technique].

It's that easy to die on the spot.

Ok……

Even if you knew the information about the Flying Thunder God Technique, it wouldn't be of much use.

At most, they'll just die knowing the truth.

Only the battle between the Human Path and Tsunade continues.

But this is only because Tsunade cannot draw blood yet, so she is somewhat restrained in fighting.

Then Tsunade was met with Tobirama Senju, who had dealt with the Hell Path clones at lightning speed.

And then, that was it...

【Flying Thunder God Slash】!

Tobirama Senju is like a ruthless monster-slaying machine.

He flung out his kunai, a flash of lightning, and killed his opponent with a single strike!

Human Path Pain, fallen.

"Cool!"

Tsunade couldn't help but praise.

Tobirama Senju's lips curled up slightly.

But the next second, Tsunade spoke again.

"Second Grandpa's speed is almost as fast as Yuan's!"

Tobirama Senju's lips twitched downwards at lightning speed.

"Humph!"

The second generation doesn't laugh.

The Uchiha clan is inherently evil!

at the same time.

Meanwhile, the Fourth Hokage and his wife had already dealt with Obito Uchiha.

Hashirama Senju's senses covered the entire area, and he noticed that the remaining enemies had all been dealt with by his teammates.

Only two enemies remained on the field.

Hashirama Senju looked directly at Pain, the Deva Path, and Pain, the Preta Path, opposite him.

"Um, Payne? Shall we continue fighting?"

"...Don't be so arrogant!"

Pain clasped his hands together, and a black sphere formed from highly concentrated chakra appeared in his palms.

Hashirama Senju watched this scene quietly, without making any attempt to stop it.

Pain gritted his teeth, his anger at the First Shinobi God's arrogance growing. He threw the black sphere in his hand, letting it fly into the air, before activating the forbidden technique of the Rinnegan.

【Planetary Devastation】!

The black chakra sphere that flew into the air was like a small black hole that appeared out of nowhere, suddenly bursting out with an incredibly powerful gravitational force, pulling at everything around it.

Air, ice and snow, plants, soil... and the ninjas standing on the earth are no exception.

Rumbling--

It was accompanied by a deafening roar.

The earth of Sanlang Mountain was completely torn apart by the gravity of the [Earth Explosion Star], forming huge stone slabs that flew towards the sky.

Hashirama Senju stood on a floating stone slab, looking up at the giant stone sphere that was gradually taking shape in the sky, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"This technique has power!"

The giant pillar clasped his hands together, about to clap them again and smash the stone ball.

But just then...

A beam of golden light shot out from afar with lightning speed, striking the very core of the [Earth Explosion Star] instantly.

The stone sphere, which was not yet fully formed, was blasted apart on the spot, and the shattered stones fell down like flowers scattered by a celestial maiden.

Along with the ninjas who had just been pulled up by the [Planetary Devastation], they also fell towards the ground.

Hashirama Senju was slightly taken aback, turned his head to look in the direction from which the light was coming, and then saw the Fifth Hokage with a helpless expression.

"First Generation Lord, don't go too far."

Uchiha Gen's voice came from afar.

"We're not the only ones here; the ninjas from Kirigakure, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure are also here."

"Also, the lives of warriors from the Land of Iron are lives too."

Uchiha Gen didn't mind watching the "God of Ninja beats up Akatsuki's Kami" drama a little longer.

But Mei Terumi and her group really couldn't handle it!

For this group of people who write as representatives of ninja villages but read as ordinary ninjas.

Even just watching Hashirama Senju's battles can be life-threatening!

Not to mention they're so close to the battlefield!

"Haha! Sorry! I forgot about you guys..."

Hashirama Senju apologized to Mei Terumi, Samui, and the others who were still in shock, and then looked at Pain.

"You see, it's the Fifth Hokage urging me!"

Big Pillar clapped his hands, and whatever he shouted came to pass.
