Chapter 206: An Evil Organization Can Never Forge True Bonds
There are some unwritten laws in the ninja world.
As long as you are the younger brother in terms of seniority, you can basically forget about surpassing your older brother in combat power. Once a little brother, always a little brother. Tobirama Senju was no exception.
Even though he was now the esteemed strategist of a certain trash organization that would dissolve sooner or later, had served as the Second Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village, and had researched numerous strange and forbidden jutsu…
He still couldn't defeat his own older brother.
And a watered-down version of his brother at that.
"Flying Thunder God Technique!"
Tobirama Senju grabbed Kisame's shoulder, vanished into a flash of light, and险之又险地 dodged the descending fist of the wood golem…
However, when they appeared at the location of the Flying Thunder God marker, what greeted them was a ferocious wood dragon!
Kisame Hoshigaki only had time to swing Samehada to block in front of them before they were sent flying by the wood dragon's impact!
"Big brother knows the Flying Thunder God Technique too well…"
Tobirama Senju's brow furrowed tightly. Sometimes, he couldn't help but envy his brother's beast-like combat intuition, coupled with the combat experience accumulated from the Warring States Period… Forcing his big brother to go all out was a bit difficult!
Kisame Hoshigaki spat out blood, urging Samehada to use its chakra to heal his injuries. He sighed softly, "I really never thought I'd one day be able to fight the God of Shinobi…"
"Grand Bodhisattva Technique!"
A giant wooden hand suddenly shot out from the ground, slapping towards their bodies! Just as the two of them dodged it, another wooden hand abruptly emerged from an open space nearby!
Atop the wood golem, Hashirama Senju clasped his hands and shouted, "Tobirama, you two are in danger! The entire battlefield is now covered by the wooden hands of the Grand Bodhisattva Technique, especially near your Flying Thunder God markers! Hahahaha… I just happened to notice all of your Flying Thunder God markers…"
Tobirama Senju: "…"
This is so frustrating!
Back then, this brother of mine had a miserable look on his face when fighting Madara Uchiha. Why is he so happy now that it's his own little brother's turn to get beaten up? Is bullying his little brother that much fun?
Seeing the wooden hands continuously emerging from the ground, Tobirama Senju let out a soft sigh. "Looks like I'll have to find a way to collect more funds for the organization when I get back…"
Four shuriken were thrown towards the towering wood golem!
The great strategist Tobirama's body flickered in an instant, appearing sequentially next to the shuriken and scattering dozens of explosive tags…
This scene made Kisame Hoshigaki's eye twitch. Although there were only two major customers for explosive tags in the ninja world, they had single-handedly driven up the prices…
The explosive tags detonated instantly!
A continuous stream of explosive tags was summoned by the Tandem Paper Bomb Jutsu, the sound of explosions rising and falling one after another. In a short while, the forest below and the towering wood golem were blasted into smithereens…
"Summoning Jutsu: Five-Layer Rashomon!"
Hashirama Senju flickered to the ground, slammed a palm down, and five massive Rashomon gates suddenly shot out from the earth, blocking the blast wave from the Tandem Paper Bomb Jutsu…
The smoke from the explosion gradually spread… Someone soon used a Wind Style jutsu to disperse the mist and observe the state of the battlefield.
Kisame Hoshigaki's injuries from the wood dragon's attack had not yet healed, and he had just been hit by the impact of the Tandem Paper Bombs. He was still using Samehada's chakra to heal…
Kabuto Yakushi, having a weaker constitution and with Hashirama being a step too slow to protect him, had been heavily injured by the shockwave from the explosion. At this moment, he was using medical ninjutsu to treat himself…
As for the main combatants, Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju, both were reanimated bodies and naturally wouldn't be injured… The ones fighting were fine, but the spectators were quite badly hurt.
A flock of paper airplanes suddenly flew in, circling above the battlefield and forming the body of Konan. Her face was somewhat cold under the moonlight. "Kabuto Yakushi! Who is this reanimated person? With such immense combat power, why has Orochimaru never reported it to the organization!"
"Also, what does Orochimaru mean! He left the jutsu formula for the Tandem Paper Bomb in his room and left the Hidden Rain Village. Is he trying to defect?"
"Lady Angel, the one standing by my side is the First Hokage…" Kabuto raised his head and explained loudly to Konan. "As for why Lord Orochimaru wanted to leave you…"
Kabuto pushed up his glasses and looked at Tobirama Senju and Kisame Hoshigaki opposite him, chuckling softly. "Since the organization is unable to defeat the group led by that crow and the Second Hokage, then there's no need for Lord Orochimaru to stay here, is there?"
An orange-haired man floated down, appearing beside Kabuto Yakushi, his palm slowly raising. "In that case, you and Orochimaru have confirmed your defection…"
"Even if the great leader of the organization wishes to clean up the traitors, he should still take a clear look at the situation, shouldn't he?" Kabuto looked at Pain, his face fearless, showing no fear of death.
"It matters not… In the presence of a god, all are the same…"
Pain glanced at him indifferently, his palm suddenly unleashing an attractive force towards Kabuto. "Universal Pull!"
A black rod emerged from Pain's other sleeve, about to be casually plunged into the Kabuto who was flying towards him with the gravitational pull!
"Lord Leader…"
Kabuto disregarded the danger and even let out a low laugh. "In the presence of the true God of Shinobi, shouldn't you stop pretending to be a god?"
Several vines and tree roots suddenly grew from beneath the ground, entangling the airborne Pain and pulling him underground!
"The Rinnegan is also known as the Sage's Eyes…"
After the crisis was averted, Kabuto stood calmly beside Hashirama Senju. "And the Lord First Hokage beside me possesses the Sage's Body!"
Konan was momentarily speechless. "…"
The Akatsuki had blindly satisfied Orochimaru's demands. The fragile relationship between them, formed by money, had finally completely shattered after Orochimaru's own wings had grown full…
That snake is so cold-blooded!
After leaving, did he not think about their friendship as colleagues at all?
Not long after Konan and the Deva Path Pain arrived on the battlefield, Itachi Uchiha, carrying his backpack, finally arrived.
The young Konoha Jonin looked nervously at the blood-stained corner of Kisame's mouth. "…Lord Tobirama, Kisame-senpai, are you alright?"
"Tsk…"
Kisame Hoshigaki didn't answer his question. Instead, he looked at his backpack and clicked his tongue. "As expected of the great Lord Kitahara. Not even the huge commotion from the Tandem Paper Bombs could wake it up…"
Itachi Uchiha: "…"
"Cut the crap!"
Tobirama Senju said coldly, "Look over there, the Akatsuki is having internal strife. Just as I thought… an evil organization can never forge true bonds…"
"This is good news for us, I suppose…"
After a soft sigh, the black wings on Itachi's back slowly shrank as he activated a healing jutsu sealed within them to help heal Kisame's injuries.
Kisame Hoshigaki calmly accepted Itachi's treatment, leaned in close to the young Jonin's ear, and whispered, "Your Konoha's Second Hokage is not an honest man!
"This old geezer has his own little schemes, too!"
