Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

Tobirama added, "Ryowu has his elder brother's cells in his body. He has Wood Release of equal strength to his elder brother, and immense eye power almost equal to the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan."

"There are also the immortal techniques of Ryuchi Cave, especially the time-stop eye technique that cannot be resisted by those who are not of the Six Paths power."

"He—has become just as difficult to deal with as Madara!"

Danzo retracted his earlier words to Raiga and said to Tobirama, "Tobirama-sensei, activate the Flying Thunder God Technique and take us away!"

The three auspicious treasures nodded. Danzo was right. If they ran away now, they would have no chance.

"Where are you going? I am a spirit of the Pure Land summoned to fight by you. I will not run away."

Minato followed closely behind, saying, "I won't run away either!"

Me too.

Ryoma echoed Minato's words.

Danzo became resolute: "Ryogoku has only just awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, and Ryuchi Cave's Sage Mode has only just been mastered."

"We must kill him before he fully adapts to this power; we can't handle two Madaras."

The Three Lucky Treasures: "..."

You people from Konoha are so great, so arrogant, and you won't run away, then we will.

Fuguki and Raiga tried to run away, but Danzo looked at them with a sinister gaze.

It was as if they were being told that Danzo would kill them if they tried to run away.

Fuguki and Raiga could only stand silently to the side.

Juzo Biwa, on the other hand, never flinched from beginning to end. In the original story, Juzo was a tough guy who took the Tailed Beast Ball head-on with his Executioner's Blade.

His final defection wasn't because he was scared by Dai; it was purely because Obito controlled Yagura so badly with the Blood Mist that if he didn't run away, he would be killed.

Tobirama and Minato discussed the operation against Ryougo. The combined efforts of two ninjas who had mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique were bound to be greater than the sum of their parts.

Meanwhile, Xiao Nan and Nagato approached Liao Wu.

Xiao Nan asked in confusion, "Liao Wu, how did you become so inhuman?"

The Sage Mode of Ryuchi Cave is different from that of Mount Myoboku. The closer Ryuchi Cave is to the Snake Sage Technique, the more perfect it becomes.

Liao Wu is just like Orochimaru's brother, so it's no wonder Konan said he was neither human nor demon.

Princess Ichikishima was also brought out of Ryūchi Cave by Ryūgoku. She was unhappy when she heard Konan say that Ryūchi Cave's Sage Mode was like this.

"Mortal, how can you, with your limited understanding, comprehend the realm of immortals?"

Xiao Nan looked at Liao Wu in astonishment, trying to find any trace of immortality in him: "Liao Wu, are you an immortal now?"

Liao Wu crossed his arms and said proudly, "Of course, I have become an immortal! From now on, I am beyond the Three Realms and no longer within the Five Elements."

"That's awesome!"

Fish Ball and Lai Cai came over, curiously observing Liao Wu's changes.

Liaowu has undergone many changes in appearance, and its smell has also changed, becoming like a snake and losing its previous cat-like odor.

Xiao Nan discovers that Ryogoku is accompanied by Ichikishima-hime, who has snake-like features and dresses like an ancient fairy.

"This is?!"

Liao Wu introduced Xiao Nan: "Xiao Nan, this is Ji from Longdi Cave. I've misused her for personal purposes. You two should get to know each other; you might become colleagues in the future."

Princess Ichikishima opened her mouth, revealing her snake fangs, and bit down on Ryou's arm.

"Uchiha Ryogoku, you big bad guy, I haven't settled the score with you for destroying Ryuchi Cave yet!"

"Little snake demon, now is not the time to bite this! There's a war going on! Don't laugh and joke on the battlefield!"

Candy stood on Liao Wu's shoulder, looking at Liao Wu with a speechless expression.

This guy was somewhat serious about Jiraiya's death before, but that was just a fleeting interest.

Seeing Konan made him so obsessed that he completely forgot about Jiraiya!

Madara's plan was wrong. Even if Tsunade died in front of him, what he was thinking about was turning her into a human puppet as soon as possible and keeping her warm.

Nagato was still grieving Jiraiya's passing and became unhappy to see Ryougo laughing and joking like this.

"Uchiha Ryou, where is Jiraiya-sensei? Where did you take Jiraiya-sensei's body?"

"Nagato, who are you talking to? So impulsive!"

Before Liao Wu could even make a move, Yu Wan, looking annoyed, reached out and formed hand seals to control Nagato.

A series of crackling sounds came from Nagato's body, and a look of pain appeared on his face.

Konan stopped him, saying, "Don't hurt Nagato. He's just worried about Jiraiya-sensei."

Liao Wu grabbed the fish ball, forcing it to stop controlling Nagato: "Jiraiya is dead, what's there to worry about?"

Minami's spirits sank: "Is Jiraiya-sensei really dead?"

Liao Wu nodded: "You all saw it more clearly than I did before. Jiraiya died protecting Tsunade."

Konan's face was filled with the same pain as Nagato's: "Yahiko too, Jiraiya-sensei too, why can't the fighting in this world stop?"

Liao Wu pulled Xiao Nan into his arms, gently wiping away her tears, and comforted her, "Xiao Nan, don't cry. Come on, I'll take you to have some fun!"

"If you are truly saddened by Jiraiya's death, then put on your mourning clothes later, and we will meet at Jiraiya's memorial hall—"

Snapped--

With a loud slap, Xiao Nan slapped Liao Wu across the face.

"You born evil and lecherous Uchiha, you wish!"

woohoo-

The shockwave from the battle between Madara's Susanoo and Hashirama's wooden puppet strikes.

The air surged like a raging torrent, the air vibrated violently, and the rubble and dust on the ground swirled into the air.

Konan activates her Paper Dance, transforming into paper, preparing to fly with Ryou and the others to escape the divine battle between Hashirama and Madara.

Liao Wu stopped her: "Xiao Nan, no need. I now possess the same Susanoo as Madara!"

Liao Wu's Mangekyou Sharingan spun, and a giant in armor, carrying a military-style fan, rose out of thin air.

They protected Konan, Nagato, and others within them.

The explosive gale swept past, but Liao Wu's complete Susanoo remained completely unharmed.

Konan, Nagato, and even Uobu and Raicai stared in shock at the energy space formed by the Sharingan's power around them.

This chakra giant is over 100 meters tall, comparable to Madara's complete Susanoo.

Liao Wu crossed one arm over his chest and said proudly, "Now I am the number one ninja in the world below Madara."

Candy grabbed Liao Wu's head: "Stop dawdling, hurry up and kill Danzo! Otherwise, he'll get away!"

"Don't worry, he can't escape. He's been locked onto by my divine sense!"

Naruto's Sage Mode allows him to sense battles hundreds of miles away, even from Turtle Island.

Once Liao Wu activates Sage Mode, he can clearly sense anyone who possesses chakra and has no barrier defense or ninjutsu concealment.

"Huh?! This looks like Mei Terumi from Kirigakure! She's actually delivered herself right to our doorstep. Forget Danzo, let's capture Mei Terumi first!"

Konan grabbed Ryogoku's ear: "You wretched bastard, go kill that old bastard Danzo and avenge Yahiko and Jiraiya-sensei!"

"Okay, okay, Xiao Nan, I'll do whatever you say!"

Nagato watched all this with a sad expression, being subjected to the dog food (a metaphor for witnessing a public display of affection). Konan was being bossed around by Liaowu like a little wife.
