"Sage Art!"
As Gensou contemplated how to deal with the extremely mobile Tobirama and Minato, Hashirama had already activated Sage Mode with a powerful clap of his hands.
The rapid increase in Hashirama's strength instantly drew Gensou's attention back to him. As he once again clashed with Hashirama, Gensou realized that his opponent, despite his physical limitations, could now fully match his pace.
"So this is Sage Mode!"
Feeling the significantly greater destructive power behind Hashirama's punches, Gensou couldn't help but be impressed.
Although he had been researching Sage Mode for some time, he had primarily focused his efforts on the Dead Demon Consuming Seal.
The challenges of Sage Mode were even more complex, and while he had made some progress, there was still a long way to go.
Because of his growing understanding of Sage Mode, Gensou became more cautious and inquisitive when facing Hashirama in Sage Mode.
The last time Hashirama activated Sage Mode, he had immediately unleashed his ultimate technique, leaving Gensou no chance to retaliate.
This time, Gensou had the opportunity to engage with Hashirama more extensively and deepen his understanding of Sage Mode.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The battle escalated once again.
Every punch and kick exchanged between Gensou and Hashirama carried unimaginable force. The mere aftermath of their clashes made it difficult for Hiruzen to move freely.
When a small hill collapsed under the strain of their fight, Hiruzen wisely stopped and began using his vast array of jutsu to hinder Gensou.
Just as Gensou landed a blow on Hashirama and was about to press the attack, the ground beneath him suddenly rose up. Although he quickly regained his balance, he missed the opportunity and was forced into a defensive position by Hashirama.
Glancing at Hiruzen, who was effortlessly wielding various jutsu to create problems for him, Gensou acknowledged the old man's extensive experience and skill.
"Sealing Jutsu: Torii of the Myojin Gate!"
Hashirama's shout echoed through the battlefield as multiple red torii gates descended from the sky.
Not wanting to test the sealing power of the Myojin Gates, Gensou quickly dodged.
Boom! Boom! Boom! One torii gate after another followed Gensou's steps, embedding themselves deeply into the ground.
Unbeknownst to Gensou, a hidden Flying Thunder God seal suddenly appeared under a pile of rocks.
Swish! A faint ripple of space-time ninjutsu sounded.
Although the Flying Thunder God technique was an instant spatial teleportation, it still produced a slight ripple. Most shinobi lacked the sensitivity to detect it, and even if they did, they couldn't react in time.
Gensou was different. Having experienced this many times, he instantly surrounded himself with an ice layer.
A hand attempted to grasp Gensou's shoulder but was blocked by the ice.
Turning his head, Gensou narrowed his eyes. "A trap?"
Tobirama's action revealed his intent to drag Gensou into a Flying Thunder God teleportation, likely towards the Myojin Gates.
With his plan foiled, Tobirama's expression remained unchanged. "Plan B."
Tobirama vanished, replaced by Minato.
Flying Thunder God: Mutual Instantaneous Revolving!
At some point, Tobirama and Minato had marked each other with their respective Flying Thunder God seals. In that instant, Minato replaced Tobirama, appearing before Gensou in Sage Mode.
Minato had learned Sage Mode from Mount Myoboku during his lifetime, but the time required to gather senjutsu chakra and its limited duration made it impractical for most battles. However, in death, without the risk of overexertion, he could gather senjutsu chakra much more quickly.
In this special form, Minato now stood before Gensou, ready to strike with the element of
surprise.
"Sage Art: Rasengan!"
Minato pressed the powerful Rasengan, enhanced by senjutsu chakra, towards Gensou's chest.
Crack! The ice layer in front of Gensou shattered instantly.
With no time to dodge, Gensou activated his Steel Release.
In the next moment:
Boom!
The intense clash of ninjutsu echoed across the battlefield. A dragon-like plume of smoke, accompanied by spiraling winds, flew backwards.
Simultaneously, Minato's Sage Art: Rasengan dissipated.
"Is it over?"
Holding his Adamantine Staff, Hiruzen watched Gensou's position, feeling a sense of relief.
Tobirama appeared beside Minato, about to touch the ground with his fingers to sense the
outcome.
Hashirama walked over, saying, "Over? No, this is just the beginning."
"Indeed, Gensou has become even more formidable than our last encounter."
Hearing this, Tobirama, Hiruzen, and Minato all wore grim expressions.
"Even that move couldn't stop him?" Minato frowned.
The enemy was far stronger than he had anticipated.
Hiruzen used a Wind Release technique to clear the dust cloud.
Soon, Gensou's figure emerged.
The Steel Release had not fully blocked the Sage Art: Rasengan. Gensou's chest bore a
noticeable dent, but for him, it seemed not to matter much.
Noticing the four Hokage staring at him, Gensou calmly, even smilingly, tore off his tattered
shirt and dusted himself off, praising: "As expected of the Hokages."
Despite the four Hokage not being at their peak, their performance had exceeded his
expectations. But the outcome was still inevitable.
"By the way, I should thank Minato for your gift."
With Minato puzzled, Gensou extended his hand to the dent caused by the Sage Art: Rasengan.
"Senjutsu Extraction!"
Green chakra enveloped Gensou's hand.
Soon, all of Minato's senjutsu chakra was extracted and gathered in Gensou's palm.
Gensou looked at the gathered senjutsu chakra and smiled faintly: "The Mount Myoboku
senjutsu chakra is now mine."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
