In terms of pseudo-Six Paths strength, he was no match for Nagato.
Nagato was one of Yukika's subordinates.
Now, Madara could see through Nagato's power but still couldn't sense Yukika's energy fluctuations.
This proved that Yukika hadn't used his full strength in the Battle of the End!
It was like this.
At that time, Yukika had only used strength comparable to Madara's, which was just the power of a ninja.
Fire Style, Wood Style, and even the Rinnegan's circular graveyard hell had a complete Susanoo.
This was completely different from the rumors about the Black Winged Demon!
That wasn't even a full-powered strike, so imagine how strong Yukika's true strength must be.
Even now, Madara still had no intention of cooperating with Yukika.
He wanted to fight but couldn't win.
He was even being mocked.
There was no reconciliation to be had.
The gap in strength was clear to the naked eye.
"Mm."
Interrupted by Yukika, Madara snorted and didn't argue.
Indeed, his theory of peace seemed very clear to Yukika.
"However, I think someone will want to listen."
Yukika grinned, his actions strange.
With a single clap, he shouted at the man on the ground.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
"Senju of the Forest!"
Boom!
A massive wave of energy erupted.
Madara's expression grew strange. He had just clearly sensed Yukika's chakra fluctuations. He couldn't imagine how much chakra was required to summon Yukika.
At least, summoning Yukika himself would require even more chakra.
Hmph!
White smoke enveloped the entire Valley of the End.
Finally, as the smoke cleared, one familiar face after another appeared before Madara.
It was the Senju clan!
At the front were the high-ranking members of the Senju clan, two of whom had already secured positions as the Espada, Orochimaru and Hatake Sakumo.
Truly, having mastered the Senju Summoning Jutsu meant summoning the full fighting power of the Senju clan.
Madara furrowed his brow, unsure of what Yukika was planning, and puzzled as to why the Senju clan had not been affected by Infinite Tsukuyomi.
"According to the plan, wait a moment, Hatake Sakumo will lead the clan members to control the situation with the ninja alliance."
"Since everyone is here, once they recover from Infinite Tsukuyomi, we'll unify things according to the Five Kage Summit agreement. Disobeying will lead to death."
This was the second chance. Yukika had no patience to wait further and calmly relayed the instructions to Hatake Sakumo.
"Understood."
White Fang nodded and led the Senju clan toward the densest part of the divine tree's branches and leaves.
"As for Orochimaru, should the preparations be ready?"
Yukika raised an eyebrow, looking at the Snake Sage.
"Let's begin now."
Orochimaru nodded and started organizing the materials.
"As for you, wait."
Suddenly, Yukika turned to Madara's position and spoke an offhand remark.
Madara was puzzled, but Black Zetsu behind him stopped moving.
It was clear that Yukika wasn't speaking to Madara.
It was Black Zetsu!
That kid.
Black Zetsu wanted to move forward but stopped.
To be honest, he really wasn't confident about acting in front of Yukika.
That man's speed was extremely fast, and even just a warning to Madara could affect his plan.
Not even the final step could be taken lightly.
"What will you do?"
Madara looked at Yukika suspiciously.
"Don't you want to show off but can't? I still don't like hearing your nonsense, so I'll find you a companion."
Yukika shrugged and nodded at Orochimaru.
Prepared, Orochimaru followed the command without hesitation and began the action.
"Summoning Jutsu! Impure World Reincarnation!"
The ground shook as two coffins appeared before Madara.
On the coffins' lids, one was inscribed with the word "Chu," and the other with "Ni."
Clearly, just these two characters confirmed who was inside the coffins.
The Unclean World Reincarnation.
A forbidden technique developed by Senju Tobirama.
The first person to use this technique was neither Orochimaru nor Kabuto.
During the First Great Ninja War, when faced with the invasion of the Cloud Village, Second Hokage Senju Tobirama used the Unclean World Reincarnation to combat the enemy!
Madara recognized the technique.
He had even considered using the Unclean World Reincarnation to revive, but ultimately gave up.
Compared to the comatose bodies revived by Unclean World Reincarnation, he preferred to fight with a body full of boiling blood.
Creeeak.
The coffin lid opened, revealing a familiar face before Madara.
"Hashirama."
This was a face that he deeply yearned for.
If he walked the path of peace and succeeded, the one he most wanted to show off to, the one he most wanted to speak to…
Senju Hashirama would definitely be his first choice!
"This is…"
The cracked face looked around in confusion. Eventually, Senju Tobirama's and Madara's gazes met.
In that moment, the two of them were like lovers who hadn't seen each other for decades, unable to part.
This scene.
Yukika rubbed his forehead and silently walked over to Senju Tobirama's side.
"Logically, I think Grandma Mito is green."
"Are you… Yukika?"
Tobirama first froze, then looked Yukika up and down, breaking into a satisfied smile.
No wonder he was his grandson; he had kept his mouth shut.
But should he say that Mito-sensei was green?
Looking at Madara, then at the moon in the sky and the Rinnegan, as well as the noisy trees around them, Tobirama's eyes flashed with a glimmer of understanding.
"It seems a lot has happened since our deaths."
"I've never seen Madara like this. His chakra is absurdly vast."
"The Unclean World Reincarnation seems to have encountered an unsolvable problem. We need our strength."
Observing his own body, Tobirama took a deep breath and began to analyze, finally turning his gaze to Orochimaru.
"So, the practitioner of the Unclean World Reincarnation..."
"The Second Hokage has misunderstood."
Orochimaru calmly bowed. "The so-called disaster in the ninja world, even the super-large-scale genjutsu covering the whole world, Infinite Tsukuyomi, is nothing to Master Yukika. It's just a small trick."
"Ninjas don't need your power; Master Yukika just wants you to witness that person's failure."
Witness that person's failure?
Senju Tobirama furrowed his brow and glanced at Madara and Hashirama.
"What does Infinite Tsukuyomi mean?"
"You said you can cover the entire world?"
Orochimaru nodded. "Yes, just like you see the moon in the sky, anywhere covered by moonlight will be drawn into the dream world of Infinite Tsukuyomi. Everything in the dream will be a manifestation of the dreamer's desires."
"In this way, the world will naturally be without conflict or war. Madara has succeeded. Now, except for the Senju clan of Konoha, the whole world has fallen under Infinite Tsukuyomi."
After hearing Orochimaru's words, Senju Tobirama was completely stunned.
Even Hashirama, who was still talking to Madara, was filled with confusion."Has Senju and Konoha split?"
"What's going on?"
Hashirama immediately became serious. Whenever the village was mentioned, he always showed such concern.
"I was just saying that the establishment of the ninja villages was a mistake."
"What's the use of short-term peace? After you died, the First and Second Great Ninja Wars erupted one after the other, with death tolls far higher than the Warring States period."
"As for the ninja villages you mentioned."
Madara smiled proudly.
This was the first time he had beaten his opponent in front of the most eloquent ninja god, Senju Hashirama.
A real failure.
"Mutual understanding? Even the Konoha we built with our hands can't achieve that."
"Senju, as the hero of Konoha, was schemed against and suppressed after Tobirama died. Without your grandson, the Senju clan would have probably long been reduced to history."
"Hard to understand, right? But that's the reality."
"In many ways, they might disappear from history even earlier than the Uchiha clan."
Was Madara mocking him?
Hashirama gave a bitter laugh and walked over to Yukika's side.
"Yukika, I want to know what happened."
He had ordered the Senju clan to be merged into Konoha, but now his grandson had led them out of the village.
What was going on?
And what was going on there?
Why was the Senju clan targeted within the village?
"The consolidation of Konoha was the dumbest thing."
Yukika said calmly.
"Also, please remember, all the misfortune the ninja world is facing now is the result of your so-called mutual understanding."
"The foundation for maintaining order is power!"
