I will use the ninja world to aid my cultivation of immortality.

The most direct manifestation is that the body size has shrunk considerably.

"Peacock Seal!"

Summer Star, located inside the Lava Peacock, had a sharp look in her eyes.

She did not stop attacking despite the Lava Peacock's weakening; instead, she gathered all the lava and compressed it into her right foot.

The air distorted in the scorching heat.

With the terrifying force of Xia Rixing blasting open the triple Rashomon gate, he flew towards Orochimaru like a meteor.

"Psychic Technique: Reincarnation from the Dirty Earth!"

Orochimaru used the "Triple Rashomon" technique for defense, naturally not allowing Natsumi to break through his defenses.

He also launched a second round of countermeasures when Xia Rixing broke through the triple Rashomon.

As Xia Rixing launched her flying kick with terrifying force, Orochimaru had already formed hand seals and slammed his fist on the ground, causing three upright coffins to rise from in front of him.

Bang bang bang!

As soon as the coffin was raised, the tightly closed lid crashed to the ground, revealing three figures slowly opening their eyes.

Chapter 152 The Reanimated Hokage Arrive

"Wood Release: Ranking Technique!"

A giant wooden shield with a ghostly face suddenly rose from the ground, blocking Xia Rixing's flying kick.

Boom! ! !

The flying kick, imbued with high-density lava, slammed into the wooden shield. The violent collision not only sent lava flying but also unleashed a hurricane-like shockwave.

The wooden shield trembled, its surface, adorned with a demon mask pattern, being continuously crushed by the lava and impacts until the entire wooden shield was shattered.

However, as the wooden shield shattered, Xia Rixing's attack also weakened, and he collapsed to the ground below, completely exhausted.

"What's going on with these three people? They don't look alive at all!"

Upon landing, Xia Rixing leaped backward a short distance with lightning speed.

She steadied herself and stared intently at the person opposite her.

Her gaze was not fixed on Orochimaru, but on the three figures emerging from the three coffins.

Especially the figure in the middle slowly lowering his hands.

Judging from the fluctuations in chakra, the shield that just blocked her attack must have come from this person.

"Tobirama, I told you long ago not to develop forbidden techniques involving life and death. Look at me now, I'm already dead, but I'm still being summoned."

"The First Hokage? Tobirama-sensei?"

"Brother, now is not the time to complain. Look at your surroundings!"

"."

Three figures emerged from the three coffins.

The person in the middle is a man with long black hair.

On the right is a man with long silver hair.

On the left is a shorter, older man.

When the three of them emerged from the coffin, they looked at each other with either complaints or surprise.

"Immortal Technique: Peacock's Wonderful Technique - Eagle Claw!"

Under Xia Rixing's close watch, he did not stop his attack, but after a brief observation, he immediately launched another attack.

As his right arm pulled, lava claws that twisted the air swept out.

"Wooden Release: The birth of the tree world!"

The earth trembled violently, and before the lava claws had traveled far, suddenly, a large number of thick trees and roots rapidly grew from the surrounding ground.

Boom boom boom! ! !

The lava claws encountered the interception of roots and trees.

In the violent collision, although the lava claws destroyed a large number of roots and trees, they were eventually worn away by the continuous growth of roots and trees.

At the same time, Xia Rixing was also attacked by the surrounding roots and trees.

The thick roots and trees resembled giant pythons, swaying and undulating with astonishing force as they swept towards Xia Rixing.

"What ninjutsu is this?"

Xia Rixing looked at the approaching roots and trees with surprise and doubt. She quickly condensed her lava claws again and swung them to smash the approaching roots and trees.

Splintered wood and lava flew everywhere.

The roots and trees were clearly more troublesome than Xia Rixing had anticipated.

Despite blocking the roots from getting closer due to her continuous growth, she herself could hardly take any other actions.

Moreover, as it continued to grow, countless trees around it grew taller and taller, eventually converging in the sky to form a huge canopy of trees that sealed Xia Rixing inside.

"This is... Wood Release?"

"It really is Wood Release! I can't believe I've seen Wood Release again in my lifetime!"

"Wood Release? Wasn't it said that after the First Hokage passed away, no one in the village mastered Wood Release? How come Wood Release is appearing now?"

"."

The battle between Xia Rixing and Orochimaru was so destructive that the Konoha and Sunagakure ninjas involved in the battle dared not approach.

But at this moment, as countless roots and trees grew out of the earth, many of the older Konoha ninjas stared wide-eyed, their expressions filled with disbelief.

Wood escape!

Even though many years have passed since the era of Hashirama Senju, Wood Release still leaves an unforgettable impression on the older generation.

Without mentioning other people's reactions.

With his hands clasped together, Hashirama Senju used Wood Release to trap Natsumi Hoshino. His attention was not on his own attack at all, but rather he was surveying the surrounding scenery with a gloomy expression.

Looking around, all that could be seen were ruins.

Even so, as the founder of Konoha, how could Hashirama Senju not recognize that the environment before him was the village he had risked everything to protect?

"You're the one who resurrected us using 'Impure World Reincarnation,' aren't you? You look like you're from the village. Tell us what's going on?"

When Hashirama Senju looked around, Tobirama Senju also turned to look at Orochimaru behind him.

Noticing the Konoha headband Orochimaru was wearing on his forehead, Tobirama Senju's gaze softened, but he still questioned him in a deep voice.

"The First Hokage, Tobirama-sensei, his name is Orochimaru, and like Tsunade, he is my disciple."

On the other side, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was surprised to be resurrected, also came to his senses. When he saw his teacher looking at Orochimaru, he quickly explained.

"Orochimaru, is it? Please tell me what happened in the village. Why do I sense battles happening everywhere in the village?" Hashirama Senju turned to look at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru looked at the three people opposite him, especially at Hashirama Senju, who was still using Wood Release to fight the enemy but still had the energy to talk to him. His palms started to sweat involuntarily.

The First Hokage was indeed a being who transcended the conventional system of the ninja world.

Even if the First Hokage before him, resurrected by his own "Impure World Reincarnation," might not even have half the strength he possessed in life, he was still far stronger than any opponent he had ever faced.

"First Hokage, the situation is like this," Orochimaru, his palms sweating, didn't dare to be negligent and quickly and respectfully explained.

He didn't actually know much, after all, he had only recently returned to the village.

Even though they already knew this, the fact that Orochimaru told Hashirama Senju and the other two still caused them to immediately unleash a strong killing intent.

Especially Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Because he heard about the Star Ninja Village.

"That bastard Naraku!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi let out a low growl, his face grim.

Although he did not put up any decent resistance when he was assassinated by Naraku, he still saw Naraku's shadow clone killing his wife who was sitting opposite him before he died.

"Tobirama, Tsunade seems to have encountered a formidable enemy. Take my wood clone with you and go help her!"

Upon learning of the village's invasion, Hashirama Senju was shocked and furious, but he did not lose his composure. Instead, he carefully used his sensory abilities to investigate the village's situation.

Just as Orochimaru couldn't help but feel awe when facing Hashirama Senju.

Even though this "Reanimation Jutsu" only gave Hashirama Senju half of his former strength, the power he possessed still surpassed the norm in the ninja world.

It's like sensory ninjutsu.

With a thought, Hashirama Senju easily enveloped the entire Hidden Leaf Village, probing every single chakra fluctuation.

As he investigated, Hashirama Senju frowned and turned to give instructions to his younger brother.

"Tsunade?" Tobirama Senju's eyes narrowed, and he immediately activated his sensory ninjutsu as well.

His strength was not as great as Hashirama Senju's, but because he was extremely skilled in sensory ninjutsu, he was able to cover the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

Senju Tobirama quickly sensed Tsunade's chakra fluctuations.
