Uchiha's personal opinion

"Susanoo in its full glory!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu took a deep breath and merged with his close comrade-in-arms, Two-Tails Matatabi, once again, transforming into a tall, complete Susanoo statue. With a flap of its wings, it flew towards the holy land of Mary Geoise not far ahead.

Hatake Sakumo and Sansho Hanzo followed closely behind, wading through the turbulent waters as they charged into the castle.

"Yasakani no Magatama!"

After locking onto 'Uchiha Madara' who was wreaking havoc, the Susanoo statue in the sky immediately unleashed countless highly condensed chakra tomoe, blasting them indiscriminately towards the ground!

"It's really you!"

Clearly, this 'old clan leader' had a relatively complete memory, so he still remembered Uchiha Tokumitsu, who had seriously injured him in his old age and caused his death.

"Susanoo!"

Although what swirled in his eyes was merely the seemingly ordinary three-tomoe jade, Madara Uchiha, whose face and body were riddled with cracks, still took a deep breath and condensed a two-armed Susanoo statue that was no less tall than Tokumitsu Uchiha.

"boom!"

The two demon statues of the same origin then collided violently, generating an extremely powerful shockwave that overturned all the surrounding servant armies and those incredibly sturdy buildings!

"Withdraw from the city!"

"Junior!"

Although Madara Uchiha, now young and possessing endless chakra, was not in control of his own destiny, his fighting spirit made him forget his subservient situation: "Let me see your power!"

"That old guy got a gold coin once, and now he's penniless, but he's still so arrogant!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu retorted without backing down, his six-armed demon statue's chakra weapon slashing at Uchiha Madara's Susanoo arms until he could only parry.

"What a strange world..."

Although he was at a disadvantage, Madara Uchiha clearly didn't care much. Instead, he channeled his deathly chakra, attempting to trade blows, while continuing to spout nonsense: "But you junior do have some ability!"

"I've heard that you've unified the ninja world!"

Even though his Susanoo had lost an arm to Uchiha Tokumitsu's complete Susanoo, Madara Uchiha still chattered on and on, completely unconcerned: "Truly worthy of being a descendant of the Uchiha clan! He has not disappointed!"

"The world you're still clinging to is long gone, why do you still come out here and embarrass yourself!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu snorted coldly, still showing no mercy in his mockery: "The so-called Eye of the Moon Plan is nothing but a conspiracy by some ancient remnant. Only a fool like you, whose brain is filled with nothing but absurd ideals and muscles, would believe it!"

"...You know quite a lot!"

Madara Uchiha's expression changed slightly.

It wasn't just Uchiha Tokumitsu's verbal attacks, but also because he knew far too much!

"The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path has been destroyed, and the nine tailed beasts are now in my hands..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu activated the complete Susanoo statue, slicing Uchiha Madara's Susanoo to pieces. "So... Lord Madara, your era has passed. Go back to the world of the dead and rest in peace!"

"Ha ha……"

The cracks on Madara Uchiha's face became more and more obvious. He then stopped talking and desperately tried to quickly repair the damaged parts of Susanoo by channeling his chakra.

Just then, a muffled thunderous explosion suddenly rang out from the sky!

The White Snake Sage and the Slug Sage flew directly into the depths of Pangaea in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, colliding with the Sage of Six Paths who was controlling the body of 'Lord Im'!

Unsurprisingly, the two great immortals were suppressed by the Sage of Six Paths in a very short time, merely by using their enormous bodies to withstand the Sage of Six Paths' attacks.

Then, a pale red, semi-transparent barrier was fully formed, enveloping the entire Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

"what!"

The Sage of Six Paths, who was furiously beating two great immortals, suddenly felt something was amiss, and then realized—the concentration of natural energy had suddenly changed!

The problem is that the natural abilities in the One Piece world have the characteristics of Uchiha Tokumitsu's consciousness. If they are in a diluted state, the Sage of Six Paths can forcibly plunder and use them, but once they are concentrated, they become uncontrollable!

"Immortal Technique - Five Escapes - Five Dragons Barrage!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu's Susanoo simultaneously unleashed a massive five-colored dragon of Sage Chakra from its three heads, shattering Uchiha Madara's Susanoo as it prepared to retaliate.

Just as Madara Uchiha was about to reassemble the Susanoo statue, Tokumitsu Uchiha leaped out of the Susanoo statue's body and instantly appeared in front of the unsuspecting Madara Uchiha.

"Immortal Technique - Sealing - Eight Trigrams Sealing!"

As Uchiha Tokuko pressed down with both palms, Uchiha Madara's immortal body was instantly covered with tadpole-shaped curse marks. He then lost all his senses, and his face transformed into that of an old man as he fell to the ground.

"Jaygorusia Satan Saint!"

Upon noticing this person's appearance, Huoshaoshan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!

Just then, a faint light appeared out of nowhere from Uchiha Tokumitsu's blind spot, heading straight for his back!

"boom!"

The unmanned Susanoo statue stretched out its giant arm to stop the ambush!

Uchiha Tokumitsu turned around, only to see a figure with white hair resembling a steamed bun disappear without a trace!

"This is……"

Uchiha Tokumitsu frowned, feeling a sense of familiarity.

“Evil Uchiha brat…”

The white-haired man landed on the ruins not far away, coldly staring at Uchiha Tokumitsu.

"It's actually you!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu was deeply surprised.

Not long ago, Hashirama Senju was wiped out, and now that Madara Uchiha has been sealed away, Tobirama Senju has appeared!

Judging from the cracks on its face and armor, it is roughly similar to an impure body.

However, during his battle with Madara Uchiha, Tokumitsu Uchiha also discovered the drawbacks of this seemingly immortal being.

That is, although theoretically they possess an endless supply of chakra, the power they can unleash is far less than that of a living person; it is only advantageous in prolonged battles.

"The Five Elders... as the name suggests, are five people..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu stood on the palm of the imposing Susanoo, glanced at Uchiha Madara sealed beneath the demon statue's feet, and then looked at Senju Tobirama before him: "There should be three more... Why are there only two? Why didn't they all come out together?"

"What an arrogant junior..."

A figure covered in bandages slowly walked out—the Second Tsuchikage, Mu!

"Honestly, I've been dead for so many years, why am I being dragged out to participate in ninja battles...?"

Then, another blond man wearing a high-necked trench coat appeared out of thin air—it was none other than the Second Mizukage, Hozuki Gengetsu!

Including Hyuga Tenjin, who is currently fighting Hatake Sakumo and Salamander Hanzo, there are exactly five people!

"...Alright then, I'll take the trouble to send these three seniors to their final rest!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu slowly raised the flame fan in his hand.

Chapter 572 The Battle of Immortals

Unlike the intense battles between Sakumo Hatake, Hanzo the Salamander, and others, the contest between the Sage of Six Paths and two great sages from the Holy Land seemed utterly devoid of any real tension.

Faced with the Sage of Six Paths, who had actually been dead for over a thousand years, the White Snake Sage and the Slug Sage's approach was to continuously wear him down with their primal power. However, the Sage of Six Paths was clearly superior in terms of explosive power, and in a short time, he transformed into a stream of blood-red light, suppressing the White Snake Sage and the Slug Sage.

The Slug Sage, with his profound foundation, was naturally not afraid of such a drain on his strength; however, the White Snake Sage was somewhat unable to cope. He had already been humiliated by Hashirama Senju due to a moment of carelessness, which left him with insufficient spirit. In addition, he also had to focus on suppressing Kaido, who had been swallowed by him and had not yet been digested. Therefore, he appeared somewhat clumsy and awkward under the blood-red aura of the Sage of Six Paths.

But the two immortals weren't in a hurry.

Because no matter what, they all have ways to abandon some of their power and escape when necessary; and at this moment, the outcome of this battle will depend on the battle between Uchiha Tokumitsu and the other three Pure Land Reincarnation ninjas.

The Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, the Second Mizukage Suigetsu Hozuki, and the Second Tsuchikage Mu—these three were all powerful figures whose fame once shook the region, and they possessed a wide array of strange and unpredictable techniques, making them theoretically extremely difficult opponents to deal with—especially since they were now in the same trench!

"Young people shouldn't be so hot-blooded..."

The Second Mizukage, Hozuki Suigetsu, seemed unfazed by Uchiha Tokumitsu's provocative tone, and instead asked cheerfully, "I'd like to know how the Hozuki clan is doing these days?"

"The Hozuki clan controls one of the seven major regions of the ninja world, and most of the clan's ninjas are members of the ninja world's navy."

Uchiha Tokumitsu pondered for a moment, then responded.

After Madara Uchiha was sealed away and the three Second Hokage appeared, apart from Tobirama Senju launching a surprise attack on Tokumitsu Uchiha with the Flying Thunder God Slash, the three did not launch any further attacks. At this time, apart from Tobirama having a grumpy face, Suigetsu Hozuki and Mu had a lot of questions they wanted to discuss with Tokumitsu Uchiha.

Uchiha Tokumitsu was happy with this arrangement.

The Five-Colored Divine Light he used to seal Madara Uchiha was also a huge drain on him. By chatting and rambling, he could buy himself some time to recover his power.

"Is that so..."

Hozuki Gengetsu seemed somewhat surprised, his expression shifting between joy and worry: "If that's the case, then Kirigakure will be the first to surrender?"

In his understanding, if they hadn't surrendered first, the Hozuki clan wouldn't have achieved the status that Uchiha Tokumitsu spoke of.

"The Hozuki, Minazuki, and Kaguya clans all rose up in rebellion and submitted to the Shogunate before the destruction of Kirigakure."

Uchiha Tokumitsu attempted to use this to steer the conversation into a longer topic in order to further delay the inevitable.

"Shogunate..."

Hozuki Gengetsu silently repeated the word, but didn't ask anything else.

"...What about Iwagakure?"

The Second Tsuchikage then asked.

"Though Iwagakure perished, they fought to the very end."

Uchiha Tokumitsu had no intention of fooling the dead.

"That's good……"

The Second Tsuchikage, Mutsu, seemed relieved, quite satisfied with the final outcome for Iwagakure, and gave Hozuki Gengetsu a smug look.

For the dead in the Pure Land, everything in the world of the living is meaningless. However, the wills of the two villages are fundamentally different. Although the Second Tsuchikage Mu didn't care about the survival of the ninja village, he was quite satisfied with the backbone shown by Iwagakure at the last moment.

"I'm sorry..."

Hozuki Gengetsu stopped thinking, slowly raised his hand, and began to form a hand seal slowly but firmly: "Unfortunately, now that I'm dead, I have no choice in what I do. I'll leave it to you to decide..."

Then, the Second Tsuchikage Muya began to form hand seals; while Tobirama Senju disappeared without a trace.

"Sealing Boundary Seal!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu immediately formed a hand seal with his left hand and activated a special sealing technique!
