I am the new Hokage of Konoha.

"Still deceiving yourself, afraid to accept reality?" Madara said with a mocking expression. "But that's true, a frog in a pond will never know the vastness of the ocean, and the same goes for ninjas. But since you've come with a purpose, then let's prove to each other who I am."

"Onoki, are you still clinging to that ridiculous stone, insisting on your so-called Will of Rock?"

Like a bolt from the blue, Onoki's hands trembled instantly.

That unforgettable scene reappeared in my mind.

"It really is you!"

Onoki took a deep breath and clenched his fists tightly.

It's definitely freckles!

This person once mocked the will of rock that I had always adhered to, and even now, it remains so.

"So many years have passed, even if you didn't die in the battle at the Valley of the End, why haven't you aged at all?"

Having already accepted reality, Onoki couldn't help but ask again.

He was almost about to blurt out, "This is not scientific!"

Upon hearing this, Madara glanced at the familiar faces who had aged considerably compared to his memories, then looked at his own wrinkle-free, elastic skin, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

"Let's talk about this again when you're on my level. As for now..."

tread!

Madara landed on the ground after descending from the roof beam, and looked around at the crowd before him, saying, "Let's get down to business. For example... Konoha."

now.

Having overheard Onoki and Madara's conversation and already knowing that the so-called new leader of Akatsuki was indeed the resurrected Uchiha Madara, A and the others, still utterly shocked, heard this next.

Before they could process everything that had just happened, their expressions immediately changed again.

"Uchiha... Madara, do you mean you want to join forces with us to deal with Konoha?" Rasa asked, pausing slightly as he called out "Uchiha Madara".

“Indeed. Xiao has already stated his purpose. I think with me here, we should have enough leverage to join forces with you.”

The four shadows remained silent.

A person's name is like the shadow of a tree.

Once on par with Hashirama Senju, Madara Uchiha was ultimately defeated in the Valley of the End, but no one dared to underestimate him for pushing the God of Shinobi to such an extent.

Especially after so many years, his reappearance in such a miraculously youthful state is even more frightening.

However, Mei Terumi still stepped forward and questioned, "Madara, why are you attacking Konoha?"

"Naturally, it's for the same reason as the battle at the Valley of the End," Ban Dandan said.

"No! If Madara truly wanted to deal with Konoha, you could have done it again after the First Hokage died," A questioned.

Madara said, "I also paid a price for surviving by feigning death at Hashirama's hands. I have no interest in explaining what happened in between, but just know that I was only recently able to take action again."

Siying's complexion was very bad.

Clearly, Madara's explanation did not reassure them.

As those in power, they wouldn't believe that someone who came from the Warring States period, founded Konoha, and then actively betrayed it would kindly join forces with them without seeking any reward.

There must be some huge conspiracy behind the scenes.

Seeing the attitude of everyone present, Madara chuckled and shook his head, saying:

"Do you even have a choice now? You should know that the current Fourth Hokage is no less powerful than Hashirama. You four Kage think you can deal with him? What a joke! Even if you were given tens of thousands more men, they would just be cannon fodder against Wood Release."

"Now, your only choice is me! Only I can deal with Thousand Hands Cloud Court. Only then will your four-nation alliance have a chance of winning."

Madara's words, which clearly showed his contempt for everyone, angered the group.

"Don't underestimate the power of the Four Kage!" Instantly, A, whose entire body was enveloped in lightning chakra comparable to that of the Tailed Beasts, roared angrily.

Beside him, Rasa, who had initially considered joining forces with Madara, was now enraged by Madara's arrogance.

Of course, there's no need to mention Onoki.

Mei Terumi coldly sneered, "I remember the First Hokage won the battle at the Valley of the End. Now, Madara, what ability do you have to deal with Senju Kumogawa?"

As if oblivious to the tense situation, Madara, with his arms crossed, pointed to his own eye with his thumb and said without hesitation, "With my eyes that are even stronger than the Kaleidoscope."

"Eye?"

Mei Terumi and the others were taken aback by what they heard.

The news that Madara Uchiha had reappeared and remained young was too shocking, and experience had taught them not to look directly into Sharingan eyes, so they didn't notice the difference in Madara's eyes for a moment.

Upon hearing Madara's words, Onoki, knowing that Madara wouldn't resort to a sneak attack due to his pride, looked first and immediately noticed that Madara's eyes weren't the familiar three-tomoe or kaleidoscope pattern, but rather rings of purple.

"What kind of eyes are these?" he asked in surprise.

Ai, Terumi Mei, Rasa, and the others were also very surprised and looked over.

Having never had any contact with Pain, they were unfamiliar with the Rinnegan.

On the contrary, Ao, who had transplanted the Byakugan of the main family and was very interested in various children's techniques, was shocked when he observed Madara's eyes, which contained unprecedented power, through the Byakugan. Suddenly, he thought of a kind of eye that was only in legend and had never been proven.

After comparing them, they do indeed look very similar to the eyes of the person in front of me.

Just as Ao was about to tell the four Kage his speculation, Madara revealed everything, saying, "This is the Rinnegan, which surpasses the Mangekyou Sharingan, and is also the eye of the legendary Sage of Six Paths."

"The Sage of Six Paths? The Rinnegan?"

The four Shadows, who had already been shocked too many times today, were somewhat numb when they heard about the legendary Eye of the Immortal.

However, Madara then released another bombshell:

“I have fought Senju Unting before, and the battle ended in a draw. With him around, along with many other Konoha ninja, it will be very difficult for me to destroy Konoha. That is why I am here to seek your help now.”

Even Madara, who possesses the Rinnegan, could only fight Senju Unten to a draw?

It's still impossible to prove whether what Madara said is true or false, but Onoki and the others, who already had a bias in their hearts, immediately fell silent.

Seeing this, Madara finally said:

“I will deal with Senju Kumo-tei, and you will deal with the Konoha ninja. We will definitely be able to destroy Konoha.”

"So, join forces with me!"

"As for the ridiculous plan of the Four Shadows to deal with Senju Cloud Court, let's just discard it!"

Chapter 224 The dance was good, but far from enough.

"That tone is really annoying!"

At this moment, Luo Sha squinted his eyes, his expression quite unpleasant.

Although Madara Uchiha believed that what he said was true, his attitude of treating the four Kage like trash, which was as if he were giving alms, still angered everyone present.

Especially the Kage of the four major ninja villages: Rasa, Onoki, A, and Mei Terumi.

As people at the very top of the ninja world in terms of both strength and power, they haven't been looked down upon like this in a long time.

Even the once-famous Madara Uchiha couldn't do it.

It should be noted that their first generation leaders did not kneel down weakly when facing Hashirama Senju.

Moreover, they are like this now.

At that moment, a powerful burst of chakra erupted from the four of them.

Rasa, whose body was surrounded by a large amount of gold dust, continued, "Anyone can talk big. Who knows if you, Uchiha Madara, are just bragging?"

Mei Terumi nodded in agreement: "Since you, Madara Uchiha, think you can stand shoulder to shoulder with Senju Kumo-tei and look down on us four Kage, then let's see what you're really made of! Let us weigh whether your strength matches your words."

"It should have been like this a long time ago!" Ai shouted as he unleashed Lightning Release: Mightiest Armor, his wispy hair standing on end.

At this moment, Onoki also took to the air, his tone calm but filled with killing intent as he said, "Uchiha Madara, if you want to join forces with us, then let us measure your strength. If you don't meet our requirements, then stay here forever."

The four shadows reached an agreement in a very short time.

Regardless, this battle must begin.

This was not only due to the dignity of being the Kage of a village, but also because of considerations regarding Madara Uchiha.

If the other party is truly as strong as he claims, then when faced with the enormous threat of the Thousand Hands Cloud Court, even if they are impatient with the former's attitude, as those in power, they will ultimately rationally choose to cooperate.

But if it's an exaggeration, they wouldn't mind killing this famous figure.

At this moment, Madara was not angry at the four Kage's stance; on the contrary, he was quite pleased.

He prefers to persuade people with force rather than with words.

The things he had just said had already made him very impatient.

Now that he's in a familiar place, he's naturally very happy.

Looking at the four Kage eager to try their skills, Madara, who also wanted to test the strength of the current Kage, smiled slightly, his eyes filled with anticipation, and said:

So, do you want to dance?

"Dancing? Grandpa, you shouldn't strain your back. How about I give you a passionate kiss instead!"

With her fiery red hair and stunning figure, Mei Terumi was the first to speak.

"Molten Release: Melting Monster Technique!"

In an instant, her sexy red lips parted, and a cascade of sticky and highly corrosive acid shot out, sweeping towards Ban.

"You all step back first."

At the same time, Onoki waved to Huang Tu, and Deidara and the other Shadow Guards and Iron Country warriors retreated.

Having great faith in the combined power of the four Kage, the group immediately obeyed and left.

Deidara, however, was very unwilling.

He also wanted to personally take on that arrogant Uchiha Madara.

Unfortunately, the elbow can't twist the thigh, and in the end, it was still forcibly pulled away by the loess.

Obito and Zetsu also disappeared.

All the unrelated people left one after another.

It was at this moment that
