Ninja World Live Stream: My Pet Rabbit is Kaguya?!

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: Hah! You think I need to calm down?

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: You're all so unfilial!

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: How do I put this…? While you were gone, we had a little discussion.

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: Sage of Six Paths, the truth is, you've left a whole mess for your descendants to clean up.

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: So instead of being stubborn and acting alone, what matters now is finding the right role you can still fulfill.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: …

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: Asura…

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: I'm not Asura. I'm Senju Hashirama.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: …

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: …

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: Kurama, your actions just now—I can interpret them as betrayal against Konoha, right?

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: …

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: Kurama, I have no choice but to punish you.

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: Wood Style: Sage Art: True Several Thousand Hands!

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: No!

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: Old man, you're seriously not going to help me!?

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: …I don't have any power left.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: …

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: I already gave all my soul power to Naruto and Sasuke.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: So right now… I'm powerless.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: Hashirama's Wood Sage Arts use Asura's chakra… In the past, Asura inherited most of mine.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: So I can't do anything now.

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: I knew it. I knew backing you was a bad investment!

As he roared in protest, the Nine Tails was smacked down with a devastating headpat finisher from the giant wooden hand of True Several Thousand Hands.

The Sage of Six Paths closed his spiritual eyes and slowly shook his head.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: I'm sorry, Kurama.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: Hashirama, no matter what, Kurama is innocent.

[Minato Namikaze]: Innocent? Maybe, but I can't accept that.

[Minato Namikaze]: Because if Kurama had forcefully broken free from Naruto's body just now, my son would have died.

[Minato Namikaze]: If a Tailed Beast leaves a Jinchūriki's body, the host dies.

[Minato Namikaze]: So Kurama's actions were extremely dangerous!

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: And… who are you?

[Minato Namikaze]: I'm Naruto's father.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: …

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: Kurama, apologize.

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: Oh come on! Not only are you not helping me, you want me to apologize now!?

[Nine Tails - Kurama]: I must've had the worst luck of this entire millennium. Backing you was the worst call I've made.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: …

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: Kurama, is the future world really that bad?

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: Have you Tailed Beasts not lived in peace with any ninja?

[One Tail - Shukaku]: Nope.

[One Tail - Shukaku]: The shinobi world is chaotic. It's been war after war.

[One Tail - Shukaku]: Sixty years ago, after the Five Great Nations were established, there was a moment of brief peace… but then came even more horrifying Great Ninja Wars.

[One Tail - Shukaku]: In those sixty years alone, the number of fallen shinobi equals the total of the previous few hundred years combined.

[One Tail - Shukaku]: Because during the Great Wars, shinobi were sent out in batches… like disposable pawns.

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: How could this be…?

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: Why… did the world turn out this way?

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: That's exactly why I said I was like you, Sage of Six Paths…

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: We both failed to handle things properly—and left the burden on future generations.

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: Anyway, Tobirama still isn't back, huh?

[Future Mizukage - Mei Terumi]: Can't be helped. The Second Hokage is still chasing Uchiha Madara.

[Cowardly - Ōnoki]: Honestly, I never thought I'd live to see this day.

[Second Tsuchikage - Mu]: Same here…

[Second Tsuchikage - Mu]: Never thought I'd see Uchiha Madara being hunted down.

[Second Tsuchikage - Mu]: Truly… a once-in-a-lifetime sight!

[Tobirama Achievement - Izuna]: You two cowards just shut up and sit tight.

[Tobirama Achievement - Izuna]: My big brother isn't the kind of man to be easily defeated or driven off.

[Tobirama Achievement - Izuna]: After all, he's my brother!

[Tobirama Achievement - Izuna]: The man who sliced the moon—how could he fall so easily?

[Tobirama Achievement - Izuna]: …

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: …

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: I never imagined that the inheritor of Indra's chakra could commit such heinous acts!

[Unfilial Son - Hagoromo]: …

[Big Dumb - Hashirama]: So, Tobirama still hasn't returned? I have no idea how things are going now…

—

Outside the chat group…

Tobirama wasn't one to hesitate.

Now that the Sage had become a complete enemy of Konoha, there was only one logical course of action:

Anyone trying to weaken or harm Konoha…was the enemy.

Tobirama had trained the Third Hokage, Danzō, Koharu, and Homura. He had regrets.But maybe… part of the problem was the teacher himself.

So now, Tobirama's blood was boiling.

"Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet!"

"Surging Wave!"

The Water Release master unleashed his jutsu without holding back!

"Damn you, Tobirama!"

Madara spun around mid-retreat.

"Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame!"

Tobirama was the Sea Style user—but Madara was the one Hashirama once believed fit to be Hokage.Although public opinion had vetoed it, his fire release techniques had never been denied.

Madara's fire release became a towering wall of flame that blocked Tobirama's path.

He gritted his teeth in frustration.

"When I fought his older brother, this brat never even got a line in…"

"If only Izuna were alive… he could've held off Tobirama."

"And now… I wonder if that dumb Hashirama is going to show up too." Madara muttered as he retreated quickly.

"If Hashirama appears…"

"Then it's over."

"…" Black Zetsu.

Filial Son - Black Zetsu was still attached to Madara's body.

He looked up at the sky.

The massive Chibaku Tensei created by Naruto and Sasuke's combined Six Paths jutsu was still ascending—sealing the Sage of Six Paths.

And at this moment…

It truly looked like despair.

Because…

A thousand years later, no one could've expected even the Sage himself would be sealed.

But still…

Serves him right!

As the loyal son of Kaguya, Black Zetsu looked down on his two "brothers."Seeing them suffer such a fate? He laughed.

But now…

Naruto and Sasuke were chasing Madara.

To outsiders, they were just juniors.

But…

These juniors had been blessed by the Sage himself.

"…" Black Zetsu.

"Madara, we need to retreat."

"Even if you can cut open Chibaku Tensei, once sealed, you can't destroy it from the inside." Black Zetsu said immediately.

"So you mean I should avoid these juniors!?"

Madara asked urgently.

His eyes were locked on Sasuke—the Uchiha who looked eerily like his brother Izuna.

This disgrace of a descendant dared to hunt him?

"For now, we retreat."

Black Zetsu said. "The Sage has already passed on his powers—he's of no further use."

"Let him taste the despair of dividing his power among others."

"If not for him, the shinobi world wouldn't be this chaotic." Black Zetsu stated.

But then, Madara's retreating footsteps paused.

He was moved.

"…Yeah."

Uchiha Madara, for all his infamy, loved the Uchiha deeply. He wasn't a villain by nature—just a madman chasing peace for the ninja world.

"Then we retreat for now!"

Madara declared—and immediately melted into the ground, vanishing from sight.
