"..."
Senju Hashirama's expression instantly became gloomy.
"Pull yourself together!"
Uchiha Madara scolded once again.
"Alright, alright, I'll try..."
Senju Hashirama quickly tried to raise his fingers, attempting to gather strength to resist Akihara Kagura's control, when suddenly he received a summons from the Summoning Jutsu!
"This is..."
Senju Hashirama looked in surprise towards the direction of the summons.
"This is..."
Uchiha Madara simultaneously narrowed his eyes.
In Konoha Village.
Konoha Hospital had become lively once again.
A group of Konoha Ninjas were desperately trying to stop Black Zetsu from using Nagato to resurrect Uchiha Madara; Black Zetsu directly controlled Nagato in battle, fiercely summoning the Pain Six Paths!
Senju Tobirama suddenly raised his fingers!
From afar, Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, who were fighting, were summoned at the same time, as their bodies flew over, the Complete Form of Susanoo and the True Thousand Hands statue instantly dissipated!
Akihara Kagura's voice came from Senju Tobirama's throat, sounding almost calm and indifferent: "Kill Zetsu and Nagato, snatch Nagato's Rinnegan, reclaim the Senju Clan's historical records on the tree bark..."
"..."
Uchiha Madara's palm suddenly condensed into a black rod!
This black rod was originally intended to be thrown at Nagato, but his palm flipped and forcibly thrust it into his own leg, using this method to prevent his body from uncontrollably attacking Nagato!
That Akihara Kagura brat...
The control over the Reanimators is gradually getting stronger!
That brat...
This time is he serious?
All the Konoha Ninjas present were momentarily at a loss.
They didn't know whether they should kill Black Zetsu and Nagato to stop Black Zetsu from resurrecting Uchiha Madara; or whether they should stop the Reanimation Ninjas from attacking Black Zetsu and Nagato, to prevent them from taking Nagato's Rinnegan...
It was a dilemma.
Because Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu also have plots; Akihara Kagura also has schemes.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
Black Zetsu controlled Nagato to directly activate the Summoning Jutsu!
A massive Gedo Statue suddenly descended, its body still incomplete, seemingly recovering from severe injuries last time!
However...
Its combat power remained intact!
From the body of the Gedo Statue, black rods of Yin-Yang Release shot out towards the Reanimation Ninjas, preventing their approach!
The Reanimation Ninjas could only quickly retreat!
Only Uchiha Madara's body was pierced with several black rods, stopping him in place, which suited him perfectly.
Just a few seconds...
As long as Black Zetsu could revive him...
While commanding the Gedo Statue to attack, Black Zetsu also controlled Nagato to form the hand seals for the Reincarnation Jutsu, and at that moment, Black Zetsu felt a delusion, as if he was fighting against the entire world!
"But..."
"It's about to succeed..."
Black Zetsu controlled Nagato to suddenly clasp his hands together, seemingly praying to the heavens, letting out a suppressed growl from his throat!
"Gedo: Reincarnation Jutsu!"
A white light suddenly emerged from Uchiha Madara's body!
In the next moment!
Uchiha Madara felt the control within his body vanish, the commands shackling his mind were disappearing.
"Brat..."
Uchiha Madara's lips curled into a peculiar smile; he didn't care about the black rods causing pain to his body after resurrection.
Before the Reanimation Jutsu ended, Uchiha Madara conveyed a message to the retreating consciousness in his brain.
"It seems in the end... I've won."
Uchiha Madara was confident; he knew how powerful he'd become after reviving and transplanting his Rinnegan again.
Uchiha Madara's tone gradually turned contemptuous: "My Rinnegan will return to its rightful owner, and as for the things you brats wanted them to take, I'll gladly accept..."
"Congratulations."
Akihara Kagura, however, didn't react as enraged as Uchiha Madara expected.
Akihara Kagura's emotions seemed calm, as if he didn't care about Uchiha Madara's revival, and his voice gradually became faint, disappearing from Madara's mind as he resurrected.
"However..."
"I'm curious about one thing..."
Akihara Kagura sat by the lake in the Valley of the End, looking at the violently shaking fishing rod in the water, obvious that a fish was on the hook.
Akihara Kagura calmly pulled the rod, asking his last question: "Uchiha Madara, after truly reviving, have you completely escaped the fate of being a pawn?"
