Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

Liao Wu broke the sound barrier and rushed over.

Hashirama the Sage suddenly threw a punch.

There was no earth-shattering opening move, nor any fierce and terrifying stance; the punches were simple and unadorned, looking extremely ordinary.

But at the moment of the punch, an invisible pressure suddenly spread out. The airflow was forcefully crushed by the fist, and the surroundings seemed to fall silent and subdue with this punch.

The demon cat Liao Wu flew at high speed, then seemed to have been hit by a mountain, unable to cross it.

With just one punch, Hashirama sent Liao Wu flying backward.

bang bang bang-

Liao Wu's back slammed against the cave wall of the White Snake Immortal's cave, the hard cave wall being smashed to the bottom by Liao Wu's body, just like the White Snake Immortal's nose.

What appears to be a casual strike by Hashirama contains the power to shatter mountains.

Everyone stared in shock at the powerful Hashirama.

They had been chased around like dogs by Liao Wu, and Tobirama had been beaten like a punching bag, losing all face.

But Hashirama, upon his very first appearance, sent the Nine-Tails-like Ryougu flying with a single punch.

This is Hashirama Senju, the god of ninjas in the Warring States period.

Absolutely terrifying!

Candy was extremely worried and went to sense Liao Wu's condition.

At this moment, Liao Wu's aura was extremely weak. This punch from Zhujian was combined with his Asura power and Sage Art.

It can easily blast open a mountain.

Liao Wu was truly hurt.

But the next second, he absorbed the surrounding natural energy continuously, regenerating at supersonic speed.

"Roar—"

Liao Wu transformed into a black shadow and rushed out at high speed.

Tang Guo was overjoyed, but also worried. How could she help Liao Wu regain consciousness?

Is it really as Tobirama said, that Ryougo has now completely become a monster and can never recover?

That would only kill Liao Wu, freeing his soul from the shackles of natural energy, and then we would have to find a way to summon him from the Pure Land and revive him.

But Candy always felt that Liaowu could recover, a feeling that their bond told her.

At that moment, Shukaku suddenly contacted Candy.

"Candy, what's going on? What happened to Liao Wu?"

Candy realized that Shukaku and Nanami were still inside Liaowu's body.

They are tailed beasts, which are the embodiment of natural energy in the world.

Candy was overjoyed: "Shouhe, Chongming, listen to me!"

"Liao Wu has now failed in his cultivation of immortal arts, and too much immortal arts energy has been incorporated into his body. You need to quickly balance the natural energy within his body."

Shukaku hesitated, saying, "Absorb natural energy? Neither Chongming nor I are Kurama!"

"Although Chongming and I are energy beings, the energy we absorb is homogeneous. The natural energy within Liaowu's body is the violent power of the earth."

"For us, it was like a thesis defense!"

Candy threatened, "Give me some now, even if it's just for the defense, or I'll shock you!"

Shukaku and Nanami were afraid of the candy's threat: "Okay, okay, we'll eat it. If Ryougo dies, our chakra will also disappear."

"Saving him is saving us!"

Shukaku and Nanami endured their nausea within Liaowu's body, devouring Liaowu's excessive natural energy.

In reality.

Hashirama looked at his hand, which had been scratched by Liao Wu.

He just hit Liao Wu, and Liao Wu's claws also scratched him, actually managing to damage his Sage Mode body!

Although the physical body of this impure earth form is not as strong as Hashirama's original flesh and blood body, the power of Liaowu is enough for Hashirama to be on high alert.

The last person Hashirama treated like this was Madara.

The next second, under the effects of the Impure World Reincarnation, the crack in Hashirama's arm quickly healed.

Hashirama frowned; this body offered no thrill in battle.

"roar--"

Liao Wu's violent roar tore through the surrounding space, carrying a wild and savage nature that made the entire Dragon Land Cave tremble slightly.

Hashirama watched as Ryougo rapidly recovered. How could Ryougo have recovered so quickly after his full-force punch?!

This resilience is even stronger than his physical body.

No, it's not recovery, it's super-fast regeneration!

Liao Wu slashed with his claws, and Hashirama fought back with his fists.

Boom boom boom—

The battle between the human and the demon echoed loudly throughout the Dragon Land Cave.

The giant snakes of the White Snake Temple in Yongchi Cave were desperately fleeing this area, running towards the outer perimeter.

Manda has long since disappeared.

Xin Ya was controlled by Liao Wu's Sharingan genjutsu. He wanted to rescue Liao Wu but couldn't. He could only watch from the sidelines, looking for an opportunity to strike.

Hashirama punched Ryougo away, then asked Tobirama, "Tobirama, what exactly happened?"

"Liaowu has been integrated into my and Ban's cells, so there shouldn't be any accidental involvement in cultivating immortal arts."

Candy appeared on Shinya's head and said angrily, "It's all your fault, Konoha! When my master was undergoing his trial, you had Kato Dan use the Spirit Transformation Technique to interrupt him!"

"It caused my master's cultivation of immortal arts to fail, turning him into this monster he is now."

Now that he had recovered, Dan was somewhat embarrassed: "Sorry, I was controlled by Orochimaru!"

Hashirama realized that Orochimaru had disrupted Ryogoku's training while he was practicing Sage Mode.

Hashirama looked at Orochimaru, somewhat puzzled as to why Orochimaru was dressed as a woman after not seeing him for a while.

"Orochimaru, hindering someone's path to enlightenment is tantamount to killing their parents! How could you be so wicked?"

Snake Aunt quickly severed ties with her original self: "It's not me, I'm just an avatar of the original self, what the original self did has nothing to do with me."

"What do you mean by saying that what the main body does has nothing to do with your clone? I may not be as smart as Tobirama, but I'm not stupid!"

Aunt Snake thought about it and realized it was true.

Could it be that I've been bewitched and turned to the dark side, and that the beastly things I did in the past can be severed from my current reformed self?

Aunt Snake admitted, "Okay, I did it!"

"But—so what?"

"Since they are enemies, it's a fight to the death! A person like him, once he becomes an immortal, will definitely block the path of those who come after him—he'll kick away the bridge after crossing the river."

"How dare you!"

Candy cursed at Snake Aunt, then formed a hand seal to control Snake Aunt's tremors.

Tobirama agreed with Orochimaru's words: "Brother, I did that too, but this Orochimaru clone is right. Since they are enemies, we shouldn't have any compassion for them."

"Big brother, Uchiha Ryogoku is a rogue ninja of Konoha, someone who has betrayed the Will of Fire."

"But……"

Hashirama hesitated for a moment, and while he hesitated, Liao Wu rushed up again with lightning speed. Hashirama once again used the power of a Sage to send him flying.

Hashirama explained his reasoning: "He is Tsunade's husband, our grandson-in-law. If we kill him, Tsunade will become a widow."

Tobirama said, "Tsunade was captured by Madara and forced to become the wife of the Uchiha clan. I will not recognize this marriage."

"Furthermore, I discovered that Madara had ulterior motives for kidnapping Tsunade; he wanted to create a strong bond between Tsunade and Ryougo."

"Then let Tsunade die in front of Liao Wu, thereby prompting Liao Wu to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan."
