—------------------—
Two colossal meteorites, fifteen kilometers in diameter, summoned by Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan, fell from the sky, crashing directly down.
"How is this possible!"
"What is this?"
"Our strength is on a completely different level!"
"Is this the power of a god?"
Most of the Konoha ninjas and the ninjas from the four great ninja villages attending the meeting were stunned into silence as they watched the two meteorites falling from the sky.
Their faces were filled with despair.
But some elite ninjas and the Five Kage, despite their shock, did not give up. Instead, they prepared to unleash their strongest ninjutsu to intercept the attack.
However, before they could make their final stand, a dazzling beam of light struck the massive falling meteorite.
"Kamehameha!"
It was Goku who, after listening to Kakashi's explanation of the Impure World Reincarnation and learning about the Uchiha clan, struck at this crucial moment.
"Boom!"
A powerful explosion rang out in the air as two meteorites, each fifteen kilometers in diameter, were instantly pierced through by the ki blast and exploded.
"Ki Breathing: Second Form!"
With a wave of his hand, countless ki blades shot out, turning the larger fragments into dust before they even hit the ground.
There was no longer any threat.
"It's Goku back! That's wonderful!"
Tsunade, who was using medical ninjutsu to save people, and Shikamaru and the other Konoha ninja who recognized Goku, felt instantly relieved upon seeing Goku's appearance.
"Hello, my name is Son Goku. I will be your opponent from now on."
After dealing with the two meteorites, Goku instantly teleported to the opposite side of Madara Uchiha and politely greeted him.
"Kid, you were able to destroy my Heavenly Meteor, so it seems you're a bit stronger than those useless Kage."
Uchiha Madara sized up the boy floating before him, his expression slightly more serious.
The boy's ability to shatter his Heavenly Meteor with ninjutsu was already barely worthy of his attention.
As for the Five Kage and Jiraiya, hmph, they were nothing but clowns.
If they got serious, they could be killed in a single move.
After being resurrected by Edo Tensei, Obito only told Uchiha Madara that Nagato had been captured by Konoha and that Madara needed to attack Konoha to retrieve the Rinnegan and continue the Eye of the Moon plan.
Therefore, at this moment, Uchiha Madara didn't know who the boy before him was, nor did he know that the boy's attack that had just shattered his Heavenly Meteor had also destroyed the moon.
"Leave this to me. You protect the injured and get them treated. I will repair the village after this is over."
Goku waved to Jiraiya and the four Kage, who exchanged bewildered glances.
Onoki spoke directly:
"Young man, you are strong, but don't be arrogant. This is Uchiha Madara; his strength is unfathomable.
It would be better if we attacked together."
Onoki knew Uchiha Madara's true strength best.
He had personally witnessed the era when the First Hokage of Konoha and Uchiha Madara together crushed the entire ninja world.
Back then, the young Goku, newly famous, didn't even have the courage to fight Uchiha Madara.
"Don't worry, leave this to him. He shouldn't be weaker than Uchiha Madara."
Upon seeing Goku appear, Jiraiya immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been dragged away by Tsunade as soon as he returned to the village, and had gathered all the information about Goku.
He knew that this seemingly harmless boy was actually a super-super-super-powerful ninja capable of instantly killing top Akatsuki members, easily crushing Akatsuki leader Nagato, and even destroying the moon.
Even if Uchiha Madara was indeed as powerful as the legends said, Goku's chances of winning were still very high.
As for the four Kage, they had just arrived today and hadn't even had a chance to hold a meeting before being attacked by Uchiha Madara.
Therefore, They didn't know who Goku was, nor did they know any information about him.
"So strong?" The four Kage, hearing Jiraiya's words, showed a hint of disbelief on their faces.
Being able to destroy those two meteorites with ninjutsu proved that Goku was indeed very strong.
But to say he could fight or even defeat Uchiha Madara one-on-one, they still found it hard to believe.
The key was, how come they hadn't heard that Konoha was hiding such a powerful ninja?
"Even if we can't win, we can hold him off. Let's recover first and be ready to provide support at any time.
Also, let's try to find the person who used the Impure World Reincarnation technique. Only by killing him can we truly defeat Uchiha Madara."
Jiraiya, seeing the four's skepticism, didn't offer much explanation.
In reality, he hadn't witnessed Goku's strength firsthand, and relying solely on information wasn't enough to fully ascertain Goku's power.
Therefore, being prepared to provide support at any time was indeed the truth.
"That makes sense!"
The other four Kage nodded upon hearing Jiraiya's suggestion, retreating together to recover their chakra and using various ninjutsu to probe their surroundings, attempting to find the person behind the Impure World Reincarnation.
Of course, a large portion of their attention remained focused on the battle between Goku and Madara.
If Goku faltered again, they would not hesitate to rush to his aid.
"State your name; your strength is worthy of my, Uchiha Madara's, remembrance."
Uchiha Madara planted his katana in the ground, and slightly raised his head.
It seemed that being remembered by him was already a great honor.
"My name is Son Goku."
Goku clasped his hands together and bowed politely, then assumed the starting stance of the Turtle Hermit style, and said sincerely,
"I suggest you go all out from the start, otherwise you'll easily be defeated by me in one move."
"You arrogant brat, can you survive this attack?"
Hearing Goku's boastful suggestion, Uchiha Madara couldn't help but sneer, then formed hand seals.
"Fire Release: Dust Concealment Technique!"
A large cloud of dust instantly erupted, enveloping Goku.
This dust wasn't ordinary dust; it was special dust carrying terrifyingly high temperatures.
Anyone touched by it would be burned to a pile of bones in moments.
Moreover, its range was extremely wide and its speed extremely fast, couldn't be dodged using his speed.
Of course, that was for ordinary ninjas.
For Goku, the high temperature of that dust was utterly ineffective against his ki.
So even if he didn't dodge, he would be completely unharmed.
If he wanted to dodge, even if he were completely enveloped in dust, he could simply teleport away.
However, he glanced around and saw that many injured ninjas hadn't been evacuated. The high-temperature dust wouldn't affect him, but it might harm the injured ninjas.
Therefore, He raised his hand and pointed repeatedly:
"Clean! Clean! Clean!"
This was a household magic he learned at Hogwarts, without any destructive power. Its effect was to instantly clean all the dust and trash in the entire house.
The high-temperature dust created by the ninjutsu in front of him was still dust, and was naturally affected by this magic.
Because he was worried that the dust area was too large, he deliberately repeatedly applied it several times.
This household magic didn't consume as much of his ki as his own body.
If he wanted, he could even leave it until the end of time.
However, in reality, he didn't need to leave it until the end of time.
After the third time, the large patch of dust in front of him had already disappeared completely.
