Chapter 605: Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, Identity Exposed

Orochimaru developed a method to break the Corpse Seal, freeing the souls of the four Hokage imprisoned by the Death God.

At that time, Fourth Hokage Bofeng Shuimen used the Corpse Seal to split the Nine-Tails' chakra into yin and yang halves, sealing the yin chakra together with himself inside the Death God's body.

Third Hokage Sarutobi Ri Zhan, to deal with the First and Second Hokage resurrected by Orochimaru's Impure Earth Reincarnation, used the Corpse Seal to imprison the two.

Thus the souls of all Hokage reside within the Death God's body.

This is a blessing in misfortune; otherwise the Hokage would have long ago been summoned by Yakushi Dou.

Releasing the Hokage souls, Orochimaru used Bai Jue as a sacrifice and activated Impure Earth Reincarnation to summon the First through Fourth Hokage.

The summoned Hokage retain their own consciousness, and their power is close to their pre‑death levels.

After understanding the situation, they rushed to the battlefield to support the Ninja Alliance.

Madara!

Hashirama!

Madara Uchiha and Senju Hashirama begin their post‑Reincarnation duel.

Susanoo vs Wood Release Wood Person.

The battle on both sides is fierce; the Ninja Alliance on the field even feels despair.

We can't help at all…

The seniors' battle is terrifying!

With their strength, can they really stop Madara Uchiha and end the Fourth Ninja World War?

But encouraged by Shikamaru Nara, the Ninja Alliance regains its spirit.

"Hashirama this guy really looks for trouble."

Madara Uchiha watches the two's fight with displeasure, while Lian Ye and Tuan Cang watch with relish.

The Kamui Space battle ends.

Uchiha Obito emerges from the space, his chest pierced by Lightning Blade, barely alive.

Madara Uchiha looks at the barely living Obito on the ground and says calmly.

"That guy is already useless."

"I still wanted to spar with Hashirama before becoming a jinchuriki, but now it's impossible."

Speaking, he uses the Rinnegan to grow a black rod inside Obito, and the "Will Manifestation" Heijue opportunistically possesses Obito.

He intends to force him to use Reincarnation Born to revive himself.

Madara Uchiha, who has been watching the battle, rises excitedly, staring straight at the distant Uchiha Obito.

"Reincarnation Born!"

My self in this timeline is about to revive.

Wait, that seal seems wrong!

Madara Uchiha seems to have discovered something, his brows slightly furrow.

"That's not the seal of Reincarnation Born…"

Madara Uchiha in this timeline seems unaware of the issue, softly recounting why he saved Obito.

"The reason I saved you was to have you revive me; the time to repay me has arrived."

Everyone present, hearing this, immediately moves to stop him; Madara Uchiha must not be revived!

At this critical moment, Bofeng Shuimen uses the Flying Thunder God Technique, appearing before Obito, and a kunai strikes him.

"Failed."

Madara Uchiha sees this but shows no expression, simply says calmly.

"However, it's fine."

He just used Chakra Control on Obito, naturally noticing the opponent's small movement.

But he had no intention to stop it.

……

"Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, finally appears!" Lian Ye exclaims excitedly.

The Ten-Tails Jinchuriki has already entered the ranks of Six Paths beings; ordinary Shadow-level are no match for him.

Madara Uchiha looks at Lian Ye's excited demeanor, his brows furrowing tighter.

That kid is so excited; could it be he memorized Obito's seal steps and wants to become Ten-Tails Jinchuriki before him?!

The more I think, the more possible it seems.

Given his understanding of Lian Ye, the kid might indeed do such a thing.

No, we must not let him do that!

In fact, after feeling Obito's power, Lian Ye truly entertained the thought of becoming a Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.

He memorized the sealing technique.

If the Three-Tails and Nine-Tails hadn't already left, he might really experience being a Six Paths strong.

After Uchiha Obito becomes the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, he subconsciously looks toward where Lian Ye and the other two stand.

Not looking is fine, but looking makes him stunned.

Why is there still a Madara Uchiha there?!

Moreover, the long‑haired man beside Madara even makes the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki feel threatened!

How is this possible?!

Because Uchiha Obito stared at their location for a long time, the onlookers who had been tracking his every move subconsciously followed his gaze.

"Lord Madara, we are exposed."

Lian Ye feels helpless; they hid well, yet couldn't evade the Six Paths' perception.

Now it's done; they were seen by everyone.

"Eh? Why am I seeing two Madara Uchiha?!" Naruto Uzumaki scratched his head in confusion.

Sasuke Uchiha said nothing, his eyes fixed straight on Lian Ye.

That guy is actually a Uchiha!

Being able to stay by Madara Uchiha's side, his strength must be formidable.

Having Uchiha Obito and Madara Uchiha already gave them a headache, and now there's another Uchiha of unknown status.

Looks like trouble is coming.

"Hm?" The Madara Uchiha of this timeline saw the three of them, a flash of surprise passing through his eyes.

What happened? How could another version of himself appear?!

"Madara, why are there two of you?!" Senju Hashirama looked at his close friend in bewilderment.

Madara Uchiha gave no reply, because he too did not know the reason.

But his intuition told him that the guy was himself!

Because Lian Ye and the other two appeared, everyone's attention shifted from Six Paths Obito to them.

"Chu Zi?!"

Gangshou and the Raikage, who had previously been gravely wounded and rescued by Orochimaru before returning to the Battlefield, said in unison.

Who are the two beside Madara Uchiha, if they're not Lian Ye and Tuan Cang?

"Hokage, I already said the cook's disappearance has nothing to do with me!" the Fourth Raikage said displeased.

Lian Ye's sudden disappearance made Gangshou conclude that this matter was inseparable from the Raikage, and no amount of the Raikage's explanations would help.

The two almost started fighting in the command post.

"So it was Madara Uchiha's doing!" Gangshou said angrily.

If she weren't Madara's opponent, she would have rushed in to snatch the cook back long ago.

"Chu Zi?"

Hearing the two, everyone looked at Lian Ye in astonishment.

Could it be that they guessed wrong, that the two aren't helpers Madara summoned, but cooks brought in to cook?

"They are Konoha Village ninjas. Previously, because their food was delicious, they were specially recruited by the Hokage into the logistics department."

The Konoha Ninja present explained to those around them.

Lian Ye and Tuan Cang: "…"

Had they known this, they shouldn't have infiltrated Konoha's ranks earlier.

Now it's over; they've been taken for cooks, I guess.

Madara Uchiha's mouth twitched slightly, and he glared at the two with irritation.

Amid the shocked, confused, and baffled gazes of the crowd, and at Ban Daye's signal, Lian Ye forced himself to stand.

"You keep fighting; you don't need to worry about us."

Everyone: "…"

Uchiha Obito withdrew his gaze, and the pressure he exuded snapped everyone back to their senses.

Now is not the time to care about the two Madara Uchiha and the two cooks.

The top priority is to defeat Uchiha Obito, who has become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki!
