Shinichi sensed the chakra fluctuations of Hashirama Senju and, as he flew away from his original spot, he didn't forget to remind his companions.

"Under your feet?!"

Jiraiya's reaction was a beat slow. In the short time he hesitated, bulges appeared on the ground beneath his feet. The next instant, several thick tree roots rose from the ground like dragons, rushing towards Jiraiya, Shisui, and the others.

As the power of Wood Release was revealed, the grass that originally grew on the grassland suddenly faded, as if its life force had been drained.

The changes in the environment were naturally noticed by Zhenyi, who had a broad perspective.

Seeing tree roots swirling towards him in mid-air, Shinichi swiftly fired several kunai towards the ground, using the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly return to the ground and avoid the attack.

"Don't get touched by those pieces of wood; they can absorb your chakra!"

Although he had never personally experienced what it would be like to be hit by the First Hokage's Wood Release, Shinichi could still get a sense of it from the rapidly withering grass.

Shinichi, who used the Flying Thunder God Technique to escape the battlefield, reminded Jiraiya and the others, but he himself did not go all out and continued to carefully observe Orochimaru's various methods.

Shinichi was cautious by nature, and he couldn't act rashly without being absolutely certain that he could control Orochimaru. If Orochimaru sensed danger, it would be extremely difficult to catch him again next time.

Although Hashirama Senju's Wood Release attacks were powerful, Jiraiya and the others were not too troubled to deal with them thanks to Shinichi's reminder.

Although the opponent's Wood Release attack range is not small, for some reason, it gives people a dull feeling, and the attack is also straightforward, making it very easy to predict the direction of the attack.

In addition, Jiraiya, Shisui, and Kakashi themselves possessed considerable mobility, allowing them to safely and calmly retreat from the Wood Release's area of ​​effect despite Hashirama's Wood Release offensive.

Hashirama Senju's Wood Release created a small grove of trees in the vast grassland.

Although his technique failed to inflict fatalities, it effectively separated the people present into several separate battlefields.

While Jiraiya and the others were busy dealing with Wood Release, Tobirama Senju struck again, targeting the young Kakashi Hatake and closing in on him directly.

Simple punches and kicks were enough to force Kakashi into a desperate retreat, putting him in grave danger.

Jiraiya wanted to help Kakashi, but he didn't expect Orochimaru to suddenly join the battle.

Orochimaru's body moved like a snake, his lower body gliding along the ground. In the blink of an eye, he had already reached Jiraiya. As Orochimaru approached, Jiraiya saw the other man open his mouth and a sharp blade extend from his throat, heading straight for Jiraiya's brow.

Sensing Orochimaru's surging killing intent, Jiraiya hurriedly dodged to the side, momentarily forgetting about Kakashi.

"Did they take Kakashi as a weakness?"

Shinichi Hyuga had witnessed everything that was happening on the battlefield. As Tobirama Senju launched his attack, Shinichi sensed something was amiss. Just as he was about to help Kakashi defend against Tobirama's offensive, a gust of wind suddenly swept from his side.

Hashirama Senju's figure appeared beside Shinichi at some point.

He appeared so suddenly, as if he had emerged from the roots of a tree. Shinichi's sensory ninjutsu couldn't detect his presence at all. If it weren't for his Byakugan detecting an enemy approaching, Shinichi wouldn't have been able to sense him at all.

A powerful sweeping kick struck Shinichi's head. Sensing the attack, Shinichi quickly bent down to dodge, while simultaneously pulling out two explosive tags and throwing them into the air.

As Shinichi used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport out, the two explosive tags intertwined in mid-air and then emitted a dazzling light.

Multiply each other's detonating charms!

This was originally created by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, and included in the Scroll of Seals. Due to its terrifying power, it often backfired and affected the user, thus becoming a forbidden technique that was rarely used.

Shinichi Hyuga memorized this technique in his early years. As he became more proficient in using the Flying Thunder God Technique, his understanding of sealing techniques also deepened. During his training at Mount Myōboku, he also learned this forbidden technique.

What might be a suicidal ninjutsu to others is, for Shinichi, who has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, using this technique is risk-free.

Unlike ordinary detonators, the power of multiplicative detonators increases almost exponentially.

Although Shinichi only threw out two explosive tags, as the tags exploded, they could summon even more explosive tags, and the power they could generate was no less than that of a hundred explosive tags tied together.

"boom!!!!"

A deafening roar shook the earth slightly, startling the fighters on various battlefields. Even Tobirama Senju in his Edo Tensei form involuntarily paused his attack, bending down slightly to resist the incoming shockwave.

The shockwave from the explosion whipped up grass and dirt, making it impossible for people to open their eyes. Even those on the outer edge of the blast site lay prone on the ground, too afraid to get up.

Needless to say, the First Hokage, who was located at the very center of the explosion, was also blasted to pieces amidst the flying smoke, dust, and wood chips, completely losing his ability to move.

The power of the forbidden technique is rapidly repairing Hashirama's body, but due to the severity of the damage, the repair process is not quick.

Shinichi Hyuga alone was enough to restrain the Edo Tensei Hashirama's ability to move.

Perhaps because Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation was not complete enough, Hashirama Senju's body, which was shattered by Shinichi Hyuga's Mutual Multiplication Explosion Tags, recovered very slowly.

This long repair period also gave Hyuga Shinichi the opportunity to seal Hashirama Senju.

Although the reanimated body cannot be destroyed by taijutsu and ninjutsu, this does not mean that the Reanimation Jutsu is perfect and invincible.

While Shinichi was indeed unable to destroy Hashirama Senju's body, it wouldn't be difficult for him, as he was a disciple of Kushina, to seal Hashirama Senju.

A soft sound rang out in the air, and in the blink of an eye, Shinichi Hyuga arrived in front of Hashirama Senju. Hashirama's head had been completely repaired, and unlike what Shinichi had seen before, Hashirama's pupils now held a new gleam.

However, Shinichi didn't care. After arriving in front of Hashirama Senju, he began to form hand seals, preparing to use the powerful Four Symbols Sealing Seal to seal Hashirama Senju's body.

Although Orochimaru's ninjutsu skills and his inquisitive attitude towards ninjutsu will eventually allow him to break Shinichi's Four Symbols Seal, Shinichi's goal is to weaken Orochimaru's forces at this moment, thus facilitating his capture operation.

Shinichi's ultimate goal in finding Orochimaru was to have him infiltrate the Akatsuki organization and provide information about it. However, simply talking is clearly ineffective in cooperating with someone like Orochimaru.

Demonstrating one's strength and skill, and then providing Orochimaru with appropriate "rewards," is the foundation of cooperation.

As for what reward Orochimaru will receive?!

Shinichi thought that someone like Orochimaru would be very interested in the Rinnegan, right?

However, that's a matter for later. Right now, they need to let Orochimaru know that they have the strength to cooperate with him. Subduing Orochimaru will give them the initiative in the negotiations.

The Four Symbols Seal is an advanced sealing technique, and the hand seals are quite complex. Even Shinichi Hyuga needs to concentrate fully on it.

However, just as Shinichi Hyuga was about to use the Four Symbols Seal to seal Tobirama Senju, darkness rapidly extended from beneath Tobirama Senju's feet, quickly enveloping Shinichi Hyuga's location.

By the time Shinichi Hyuga realized it, he was already enveloped in darkness. When he came to his senses, he found himself in a state of complete darkness and chaos.

The sky, the earth, and everything around were replaced by endless darkness, and even Shinichi Hyuga's Byakugan could not penetrate this darkness.

This was a scene that Shinichi Hyuga had never encountered before; it was the first time Shinichi had ever encountered a technique that even the Byakugan could not penetrate.

After he completed the Four Symbols Seal, the figure of Hashirama Senju was no longer in front of him; instead, chaos and darkness replaced him.

It would be difficult for others to understand how Shinichi Hyuga feels right now. He used to have powerful eye techniques and strong perception, but now he is blind, and he can't help but feel a strong sense of crisis.

Looking around, Shinichi was trying to sense his Flying Thunder God Mark even though he couldn't see. But strangely, under the enemy's unknown ninjutsu, Shinichi couldn't sense the existence of the Flying Thunder God Mark at all.

"What's this..."

"Never heard of Orochimaru mastering such a technique?"

"Could it be..."

Although Shinichi Hyuga is not very old, he has read a great deal of books over the years. More importantly, he has a thorough understanding of the backgrounds of the enemies he is facing now.

Whether it's Orochimaru, Kimimaro, Kabuto, or the Senju brothers Hashirama and Tobirama that Orochimaru summoned using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, Shinichi was very clear about their tactical characteristics.

After a brief hesitation, Shinichi Hyuga immediately guessed that this technique must be the Second Hokage's Dark Travel Technique.

This technique was developed by the Second Hokage specifically to target the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.

It's evident from the various ninjutsu developed by the Second Hokage that, in order to deal with the "evil Uchiha," this Hokage developed many highly targeted ninjutsu.

Since the Dark Arts are essentially illusions, neither the Sharingan nor the Byakugan can function when the host is under the influence of an illusion.

Because Shinichi Hyuga was in a genjutsu world, his chakra flow had been interfered with by the Second Hokage, which is why he was unable to sense the location of his Flying Thunder God seal.

This Dark Travel Technique not only counters the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan, but also the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan.

To dispel the darkness before us, we must break the illusion!

There are two approaches to breaking an illusion: one is to manage your own chakra and escape the illusion; the other is to kill the caster, as most illusions require the caster to survive to maintain their effect.

Regardless of the type, breaking genjutsu is never easy. This is because of genjutsu's powerful control over the field, which is why the Uchiha clan's overall strength is feared by everyone in the ninja world.

Almost every Uchiha who awakens the Sharingan possesses exceptional genjutsu skills, leading to the long-standing saying in the ninja world: "If a ninja encounters an Uchiha in a one-on-one fight, they must run!"

Because the Uchiha clan is almost invincible in one-on-one situations.

Tobirama Senju, with his exceptional skill in illusion magic, also possessed a degree of "invincibility."

The Dark Travel Technique was able to counter the Uchiha clan because it exploited an information gap. If it weren't for Shinichi Hyuga, who would have known that the darkness extending from the Second Hokage's body was actually a genjutsu?!

If the Second Hokage's enemy was the proud Uchiha clan, they probably would never have imagined that someone would dare to try and use genjutsu in front of them!

Let alone the proud Uchiha, even someone like Danzo who stole the power of the Sharingan would blindly trust its power. In his battle against Sasuke Uchiha, he was deceived by Sasuke's simple genjutsu and made a fatal mistake in the fight.

However... although the Second Hokage's techniques were very strong, his enemy was Shinichi Hyuga!

Having seen through the true nature of the Dark Walk Technique, Shinichi Hyuga clasped his hands together, and the two completely different attributes of Yin and Yang chakra flowed through his entire body's meridians, gushing out from the pores and acupoints around his body.

Managing one's own chakra is far too easy for a Hyuga clan ninja.

It can be said that every member of the Hyuga clan who is proficient in Gentle Fist is a master at breaking illusions!

Shinichi Hyuga, whose Byakugan has undergone a mutation and reversion, causing changes in his own chakra, is even less susceptible to being controlled by genjutsu.

A powerful chakra flowed from Shinichi Hyuga's body, forming a thin protective shield around him.

Just as Shinichi was exerting all his strength to break through Tobirama's genjutsu, a strong sense of crisis suddenly came from the southeast corner of the chaotic space.

Without a second thought, Shinichi Hyuga swiftly dodged to the side, relying solely on his sixth sense.

In the present world.
