Chapter 324: Kakashi and Zabuza fighting side by side?

In the Rain Village.

The Supreme Commander of the Ninja Alliance, Hanzo of the Salamander, is stationed here.

After the Five Kage left the meeting, the major ninja villages will gather their forces in the Cloud Village, while the Rain Village is responsible for contacting powers outside the Five Great Nations.

The entire ninja world quickly spread the news that Akihara Kagura intended to destroy the ninja world. The ninja villages of the Five Great Nations invited all ninjas in the ninja world to join this war to defend the ninja world.

Along with this news...

Naturally, Akihara Kagura's declaration of war also spread.

In a remote small town.

A man wrapped in bandages and a handsome young man are here. They are Momochi Zabuza and Haku, who had long since retired. They overheard a group of rogue ninjas spreading the news at the market.

"The last time I saw that guy was four or five years ago..."

Zabuza squinted his eyes but without his usual murderous intent, "That guy betrayed the Konoha and even wants to destroy the ninja world?"

"Are you going to participate, Lord Zabuza?"

Haku asked in surprise, "I heard many people will join this time. Are we going too?"

"..."

Zabuza was silent for a while, then suddenly grinned, "We can't let that guy destroy the world, can we?"

There are many people in this world like Zabuza and Haku, who are heading to the Rain Village, even familiar faces.

For example...

Suigetsu Hozuki and Jugo, both wielding a sword.

They originally intended to find Uchiha Sasuke but couldn't approach Konoha, so they decided to gather here and encountered Zabuza.

"Give me the Kubikirib?ch?!"

Zabuza straightforwardly wanted his Kubikirib?ch? back!

"Zabuza-senpai, aren't you dead?"

Suigetsu was terrified, as if he had seen a ghost!

Because according to the legend in the Mist Village, Zabuza was dead. Everyone in the Mist knew Zabuza, and no one could take the Kubikirib?ch? from a living Zabuza!

"Brat, hand over the sword first!"

Such arguments were not uncommon.

Many rogue ninjas had grudges, but under the order maintained by the ninjas of the Rain Village and Hanzo of the Salamander, they were barely kept in check.

Compared to the bustling Rain Village...

The other major nations' ninja villages were quite calm.

The Fourth Raikage of the Cloud Village and the Third Tsuchikage of the Rock Village were highly respected, and the ninjas of these two villages quickly assembled; the situation in the Sand Village and the Mist Village was more complicated. Gaara and Mei Terumi had a hard time convincing everyone.

As for Konoha...

It was undoubtedly the most complicated.

The Konoha's ninjas all agreed to stop their former Hokage from destroying the world, cooperating with Tsunade's efforts. Hatake Kakashi also completed the transplant of Uchiha Obito's Mangekyo Sharingan, but Orochimaru and Kabuto didn't dare to help him transplant Hashirama's cells.

The only ones not cooperating...

Naturally, were the three Uchiha outside the village.

Outside Konoha.

In a temporarily opened training ground.

Two figures were moving swiftly!

Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Sasuke both had incredibly strong physiques!

Madara had been tempered through the Warring States period and countless training sessions, even transplanting the cells of the First Hokage, to reach this point!

Uchiha Sasuke, having activated the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, could engage in taijutsu battles with Madara, even moving faster than Madara!

"Chidori!"

Lightning surged in Sasuke's hand, and with the acceleration of the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, he charged towards Madara like lightning!

With the added speed...

Chidori's piercing power was terrifying!

"Susanoo!"

Madara raised his fingers and directly activated the second form of Susanoo, but it was still pierced by Chidori!

"Susanoo!"

Sasuke also activated Susanoo, a huge purple giant appeared, drawing a bow and shooting an arrow that pierced Madara's Susanoo!

"The second form is not enough!"

Madara's blue Susanoo rose again!

"I know!"

Sasuke's purple Susanoo also ascended, turning into an armored giant, continuing to evolve!

Until...

It evolved into the fourth form of Susanoo!

The fourth form of Susanoo had a complete body, greatly enhancing flexibility in battle!

This was Sasuke's limit after transplanting Itachi's eyes to awaken the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, reaching this point under Madara's guidance.

But...

This was still not enough to satisfy Madara!

Uchiha Madara directly activated the Complete Susanoo. The tall blue giant slashed the purple Susanoo apart with a single stroke and said in a deep voice, "The difference between the Complete Susanoo and the fourth form Susanoo is just one slash..."

This form of Susanoo...

Still poses no threat to Akihara Kagura!

"Being able to maintain the fourth form is already quite good..."

Uchiha Sasuke wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said in a low voice, "Even Kakashi struggles to activate the first form of Susanoo..."

"..."

Uchiha Madara stared at Sasuke, who bore a striking resemblance to his younger brother, as if he was transported back to the days when he sparred with his brother.

Back then...

Uchiha Izuna would occasionally say he was tired...

Sasuke and Izuna are really too alike...

"That guy is not an Uchiha..."

Madara snapped out of his memories, his voice turning cold. "That guy doesn't have the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. Sasuke, you haven't reached your peak yet!"

"The time is too short..."

Sasuke didn't have enough time to train.

If the war had started later, perhaps he could have slowly mastered the Complete Susanoo. Unfortunately, they didn't have enough time.

"Do you have time to talk?"

Tsunade approached at that moment, wanting to discuss the war with Madara. "Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki from the Cloud Village, is training Uzumaki Naruto, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki from Konoha, in a secret area of the Cloud Village. The battlefield for this war has been set at the Cloud Village..."

"We will be there."

Madara waved his hand and said coldly, "If there's nothing else, don't disturb Sasuke's training..."

"..."

Tsunade sighed helplessly.

This guy...

Is really impervious to reason! However, the Allied Ninja Forces desperately needed Madara's power, so she couldn't say much and could only hope that he would show up where he was needed!

"Any news on Akihara Kagura?"

Madara suddenly called out to Tsunade, his voice cold. "Have you located where he's hiding?"

"The Valley of the End..."

Tsunade nodded, sharing the intel the Allied Ninja Forces had gathered. "According to our scouting ninjas, Akihara Kagura's army has swelled to a terrifying size..."

"The Valley of the End can no longer contain his forces. At least a hundred thousand White Zetsu are under his control, set to participate in this battle. According to the Allied Ninja Forces' staff predictions, this massive army will move from the Valley of the End and directly attack the Allied Ninja Forces' headquarters in the Cloud Village..."

"Where are the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails?"

Madara glanced at Tsunade and asked about a classified detail.

Sasuke also showed a hint of concern in his eyes. He was more worried about Uzumaki Naruto's safety, knowing that Akihara Kagura would definitely try to take the Nine-Tails from Naruto.

"That..."

Tsunade was unsure whether to answer.

To ensure the safety of the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, the Allied Ninja Forces had placed them in the rearmost lines to protect them from being captured by Akihara Kagura.

"Hmph..."

Madara snorted coldly, sneering disdainfully. "How can ninjas who can't trust and understand each other resist that guy?"

"No."

"The Eight-Tails and Naruto are both in the rearmost lines within the Cloud Village."

Tsunade quickly shook her head and sighed. "It seems Lord Hanz? was right. The supreme commander of the Allied Ninja Forces, Lord Hanz? of the Salamander, had informed me earlier that if we want everyone in the ninja world to fight together, nothing should be hidden from each other..."

"That kid's not bad..."

Madara rarely praised someone, but he did when evaluating Hanz?. Given his status and age, it was indeed fitting for him to call the elderly Hanz? a kid.

Madara had heard about the work of the supreme commander of the Allied Ninja Forces. "Although I haven't met that kid yet, I've heard of his reputation recently. At least in terms of uniting the ninja world, he's more reliable than Hashirama..."

"When you gather, I'll bring Sasuke and Obito over…"

Uchiha Madara looked at Tsunade and spoke disdainfully, "A ninja from a small village is more reliable than the Kage of the Five Great Nations..."

Indeed.

Hanz? of the Salamander has performed admirably as the supreme commander of the Allied Ninja Forces.

At least on the surface, Hanz? has been working very diligently. He has genuinely been in contact with the major Ninja villages, keeping information flowing smoothly and mediating conflicts between the villages.

Hanz? has even been giving frequent speeches in Rain Village, urging all Ninja to set aside past grievances and unite against a common formidable enemy in the face of the impending destruction of the Ninja world.

The entire Ninja world...

Nearly 100,000 Ninja have been organized.

Among them, 80,000 Ninja have been mobilized from the Five Great Nations, while 20,000 Ninja from smaller villages and samurai from the Land of Iron have been assembled.

In terms of numbers, they are evenly matched.

According to the Allied Ninja Forces' intelligence department, Akihara Kagura's army of White Zetsu is also rapidly gathering, with about 100,000 of those peculiar-looking creatures.

In the Land of Lightning.

The Allied Ninja Forces are continuously advancing in this direction.

All the Ninja are wearing the same forehead protector.

Regardless of which village they came from, they have removed their village's forehead protector and replaced it with a standard one bearing the kanji for "Ninja." Due to time constraints, identical uniforms could not be made, resulting in slight differences in their attire.

Below a tall tower.

100,000 Ninja have gathered in a grand assembly.

Ninja from the five major villages and those from smaller villages have all converged here to receive war equipment and will be assigned to various units by the Allied Ninja Forces' staff department.

In the logistics department.

Haruno Sakura and several medical ninjas are distributing emergency medical supplies to all ninjas in preparation for the imminent war, to ensure they can treat their wounds promptly.

"Four sets."

A somewhat familiar voice reached Haruno Sakura's ears.

When Haruno Sakura looked up, she saw a figure she had not seen in a long time, an enemy who had cast a significant shadow over her during her girlhood.

"Momochi Zabuza!"

Haruno Sakura was shocked as she looked at the person in front of her, Momochi Zabuza.

"Lord Zabuza, it's someone you know..."

Haku looked at Haruno Sakura with amazement.

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

Suigetsu Hozuki grumbled nearby.

J?go looked helplessly at the noisy Suigetsu Hozuki.

Because both he and Momochi Zabuza were originally from Mist Village, they had decided to form a temporary team to join the battle together after the commotion.

"Be quick..."

Momochi Zabuza looked dissatisfied at the stunned Haruno Sakura and said coldly, "Little girl, you have grown up, are you still frightened by my killing intent?"

"You jest, senior."

Haruno Sakura suddenly felt a sense of relief, smiled slightly, and handed four sets of emergency medical supplies to Momochi Zabuza.

As she watched Momochi Zabuza leave, Haruno Sakura suddenly felt that the war was not so frightening: "For the same goal, former enemies are standing together, fighting side by side against a powerful foe..."

"Wait..."

Haruno Sakura suddenly realized something: "This is the area of the Third Division, was Momochi Zabuza assigned to the Third Division?"

That seems...

quite normal.

Because the Third Division is for close and mid-range combat.

The only odd thing is...

The Third Division's commander is named Hatake Kakashi.

When Hatake Kakashi saw Momochi Zabuza among his subordinates, his eyes widened in astonishment!

What a joke...

How is Momochi Zabuza still alive?

Something is not right!

Hatake Kakashi stared in disbelief at Momochi Zabuza. He couldn't believe he was going to fight alongside him.

"What a cursed fate..."

Momochi Zabuza looked displeased at Hatake Kakashi and grumbled to his temporary subordinates, "This guy is called Hatake Kakashi. The second time we met, I single-handedly hung him and his subordinates. I can't believe he is the commander of the Third Division. This war will be hard to win..."

"You..."

Hatake Kakashi rolled his eyes helplessly at the troublesome guy in front of him, "Show a bit more respect to your superior! Every time we meet, you are the one who loses, right?"
