I founded the "Bragging Cult" in Naruto.

Chapter 771 Even the wise can make a mistake, and even the foolish may not understand.

"Mada!"

In the command camp behind the Allied Shinobi Forces, Hashirama Senju, who had been thrown back by his younger brother, was lying on the ground, enjoying a back massage from the ninja pig Tonton.

He didn't care at all about what the people around him were talking about. War was tense and dangerous for most ninjas, but it was quite boring for Hashirama Senju.

He had spent most of his life in war, so the tension around him was, in Hashirama Senju's eyes, like that of the Senju clan children who had just learned to refine chakra and were told to go to the battlefield.

Because in that era, only children would be so flustered, and Hashirama Senju himself was already used to this kind of life, so he had no interest in participating.

But suddenly, he caught a name, opened his eyes, and the ninja pig Tonton on his back was startled and quickly ran off Hashirama Senju.

At this moment, Tsunade, A, and Hiruzen Sarutobi, who were also stationed at the rear, were also looking in the direction of Yamanaka Inoichi.

Yamanaka Inoichi pushed up the special helmet on his head, revealing his eyes, and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen. There was no other way; he was the most reliable one here.

"Third Hokage, sirs, news has come from the front lines that Madara Uchiha has broken free from the control of the Impure World Reincarnation, and his power is much greater than during the Impure World Reincarnation period."

Even Sakamoto Tatsuma couldn't completely control Uchiha Madara. Their battle is now completely out of control, affecting a large number of Allied Shinobi Forces members, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.

After briefly reporting the information from the front lines, Yamanaka Inoichi looked at the group, then at Shikaku, who was also wearing a helmet, unsure of what to do.

At this moment, Shikaku also took off his helmet, his face showing an unprecedented solemnity. As the commander-in-chief of the battlefield, the last thing he wanted to see was this uncontrollable situation.

His previous optimism about the war stemmed from his trust in Sakamoto Tatsuma's strength, as Sakamoto Tatsuma was undoubtedly the strongest ninja he had ever seen.

Pain, who had rendered the entire village helpless, was as weak as a Chunin in Tatsuma's hands.

It can be said that Shikaku had absolute confidence in Tatsuma's personal abilities, a confidence that far surpassed his trust in the First Hokage.

Although he also knew that the historical Hashirama Senju was ridiculously strong, after all, the Valley of the End was the site of his battlefield with Madara Uchiha, a place that completely changed the terrain.

But a voice in Shikaku’s heart told him that Hashirama Senju was actually not as good as Tatsuma Sakamoto, especially after he was resurrected by Edo Tensei and given a body by Tatsuma Sakamoto. He should have been even weaker than he was in life.

Therefore, when Shikaku first heard that the war between Uchiha Madara and Tatsuma was under control, he was not surprised at all, but now it is out of control.

If Madara Uchiha can become even stronger, so strong that even Tatsuma cannot defeat him, then the outcome of this war becomes uncertain.

Give me the coordinates!

Just as Shikaku was deep in thought, Tsunade said to Yamanaka Inoichi that although there was no formal master-disciple relationship, Tatsuma was indeed her student.

If students have problems they can't solve, then it's time for the teacher to step in.

Even though Tsunade herself wasn't confident of defeating Madara Uchiha, she could still offer some help.

"I'll go with you."

Ai frowned and said, "I've wanted to see Sakamoto Tatsuma's strength for a while now. Although the time constraints make it inconvenient to be enemies, fighting side by side can still be exhilarating."

Yamanaka Inoichi, please provide accurate intelligence, Azabui! Prepare for the Heavenly Deployment Unit!

Ai turned to look at Mabuyi, who was also a member of the think tank. Mabuyi was taken aback, then said, "Lord Ai, this is too dangerous. You've never done this before."

"Enough with the nonsense, my old man is still on that battlefield! Even though he's a sealed, resurrected body, as his son, I still have to go see him."

Mabui hesitated for a moment, then stopped refusing and immediately led his men to prepare to activate the Heavenly Delivery Technique. Yamanaka Inoichi, on the other hand, kept his eyes closed, as if a message was being transmitted from his helmet.

After listening for a while, he opened his eyes and said, "The Mizukage is also preparing to join the battle. The daimyo she was protecting has been sent to a safe house. The Tsuchikage and Kazekage on the battlefield side have also indicated that they can continue to participate in the battle."

"It seems that an unprecedented alliance of the five Kage is about to unfold."

Tsunade smiled slightly, looked at A, and said, "Heavenly Delivery Technique, take me with you."

"you?"

"Are you going to question the bloodline I inherited from my grandfather?"

Tsunade raised her hand, clenched her fist, and as the air in her palm was compressed instantly, it made a popping sound. Her physical fitness was not bad at all. In fact, if we take medical ninjutsu into account, she should be able to withstand the pressure of the Heavenly Delivery Technique more easily than A.

"Are you just going to ignore me like this?"

Hashirama Senju scratched his head, looking somewhat hurt, and said, "He was clearly the one who was the most emotional, but why are his granddaughter and these younger generations all ignoring him?"

"Grandpa, just stay here and rest assured. I'm afraid Second Grandpa will blame you if you run away."

Tsunade glanced helplessly at Hashirama Senju, after all, Hashirama Senju was thrown back by Tobirama Senju because he "caused trouble" during the mission.

Without any further orders from Tobirama Senju, Tsunade wouldn't dare let Hashirama Senju leave so easily; compared to that, she was more afraid of her great-uncle.

However, Hashirama Senju was no longer as relaxed and carefree as before. His face was full of seriousness, and the domineering demeanor that had dominated the entire Warring States period finally returned to him.

"The Five Kage... that sounds like a powerful force, but you're about to face Mada."

Hashirama Senju shook his head and said, "Only I know how to stop him, and it is my responsibility to do so. Everything started because of me, so it is my responsibility to correct it and bring the ninja world back to the right path."

"Perhaps I'm not good at doing things like Tobirama, but when it comes to fighting Madara, no one knows it better than me."

"First Generation Lord, and all of you sirs, I entrust everything to you."

"Shikaku?!"

No one expected that the first person to agree with Hashirama Senju would be Shikaku, since no matter how you looked at it, Shikaku seemed like the kind of person who would oppose such an irrational decision as Hashirama Senju.

But Shikaku understood a principle: to defeat a powerful enemy, reason alone is not enough; the most important thing is strength.

If even Sakamoto Tatsuma couldn't defeat this opponent, then the Five Kage, even if they were all tied together, would never be a match for Uchiha Madara. Rather than that, it would be better to replace him with Senju Hashirama.

At least Hashirama Senju still had power.

At this moment, Hashirama Senju hesitated and said, "But Tobirama told me to stay and protect you. If I leave, your safety will be in danger."

"Who would target someone who doesn't even dare to go to the battlefield?"

Shikaku gave a reassuring smile, then looked at Inoichi and said, "If I remember correctly, the Mizukage still has Minato's old guard squad?"

"Um."

"Give them the coordinates as well, use the Flying Thunder Formation technique, and at the same time, set up the Heavenly Delivery technique here. Also, contact the Second Hokage and Minato. If you can get in touch, ask for their help. Finally, use the Heavenly Delivery technique again."

"it is good."

With Shikaku's guidance, Inoichi felt less nervous and began working methodically.

"Um, please tell me the coordinates as well, and I'll hurry over there."

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke with a slightly lacking confidence. Shikaku, who was about to put on his helmet, was taken aback and subconsciously said, "Third Hokage, what are you doing here?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi: "."
