Chapter 160: The Terror War Begins

The spacious residence of Uchiha Ten was far removed from the core area of the Uchiha clan.

If the Uchiha clan's base was located on the outskirts of Konoha Village, then Uchiha Ten's residential district lay at the very edge of that outer rim.

A terrifying pressure emanated from the three coffins.

Three tall figures slowly stepped out from within them.

They were none other than the First Hokage, the Second Hokage, and Uchiha Madara.

"Have I been revived? But the current situation seems..."

Uchiha Madara wore a cold expression, but as he stepped out, he suddenly sensed something—his pupils narrowed slightly, and a flicker of shock appeared on his face.

He could not comprehend what exactly was happening.

Senju Hashirama glanced around briefly, clicking his tongue.

"I never thought I'd be able to return to the mortal world again."

"Senju Madara, I remember this technique was developed by you...?"

Senju Hashirama pressed his hand against his forehead, about to say something, but then saw Uchiha Fugaku across from him. After one last glance at the cold-faced Uchiha Ten beside him, dressed in the Uchiha fan attire, he finally sighed.

"This is truly a nuisance! I always said such a desecration of the dead should never have been developed."

"And now it's being applied to us... Is this mission meant to deal with the younger generation of Konoha?"

The brows of Senju Madara twitched several times as he coldly glanced at Uchiha Madara, then at Uchiha Ten beside him.

His voice carried a hint of killing intent and regret.

"My research was flawless... The only thing I regret is that... I didn't completely eradicate the Uchiha clan back then! That's what led to this massive trouble."

But soon, Senju Hashirama regained his composure, no longer as gloomy as before. He laughed heartily and turned toward Uchiha Madara.

"Madara, never thought I’d meet you again after death! And in this manner... Now that I think about it, even though our souls were desecrated, perhaps this isn’t entirely bad."

Uchiha Madara remained silent.

All he felt now was a pounding headache, and he realized with certainty that his plan before death had utterly failed.

Uchiha Ten suddenly appeared behind the three, a kunai imbued with cursed seals piercing into their minds.

"I dare not underestimate any of the three of you!"

"Even if I can't restore you to your peak state, I must at least ensure you remain under my control!"

Uchiha Ten’s voice was extremely cautious.

He dared not summon them at full strength—if he did, they might break free from the Impure World Reincarnation on their own.

After all, these people were far too powerful.

Due to his limitations, their current power, though formidable, still fell short of their prime.

"Indeed, the situation is dire!"

Uchiha Fugaku clenched his teeth, his pupils contracting sharply. Three tomoe rapidly coalesced into a spinning windmill.

Facing two nearly godlike figures and an undeniable Fire Shadow, he could no longer conceal his Mangekyō Sharingan.

"You over there—though I don’t know your exact connection to the Fourth Hokage... Given your strength, you’re clearly no ordinary subordinate! Leave now and gather the entire Uchiha clan and Konoha’s full combat force!"

Uchiha Fugaku unleashed terrifying eye power, his voice rising with every emotion.

"This time, it looks like it will be a catastrophe for the Uchiha clan—and indeed, for all of Konoha!"

"Susanoo!"

The terrifying Susanoo instantly formed and charged forward.

The colossal figure clenched its fist and slammed it down onto the earth with a thunderous impact.

Though Senju Hashirama did not wish to fight, his body acted against his will under control, instantly forming several hand signs.

"Wood Release."

"Forest Prison Manifestation!"

The ground trembled violently. Countless trees erupted across the entire Uchiha base and for thousands of miles beyond Konoha.

These trees seemed alive, wrapping around Susanoo instantly, rendering it immobile.

"Damn it... So this is the so-called 'God of the Shinobi World,' the First Hokage?"

Uchiha Fugaku poured every ounce of his strength into the battle, repeatedly slashing through the countless trees wrapping around him—but it was futile. There were simply too many.

Gradually, his body became entangled, unable to move.

Just as Uchiha Fugaku was about to despair, a cold voice suddenly rang out.

"Nothing special."

"Even the peak-era Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara would’ve earned my respect. But... without their peak state? This is just ordinary."

Su Han suddenly opened his palm, cold words spilling forth.

"Gonggong’s Water!"

"Storm Thunder God’s Authority!"

Terrifying pitch-black dark water surged violently from Su Han’s body in all directions.

Those wood-release techniques rushing toward Su Han were instantly corroded upon contact with the dark water—completely destroyed, unstoppable.

Seeing this, Uchiha Ten’s expression shifted slightly, his eyes flickering with a trace of disbelief.

Was this some kind of bloodline limit? But the corrosiveness... It was far too overwhelming. How could it effortlessly corrode Wood Release? This wasn’t just any river’s Wood Release—it was the First Hokage’s! Even if not at peak form now, it remained no small threat.

Su Han showed no expression.

Above the sky, endless lightning flashed, and a storm descended.

The area was instantly transformed into a thunderstorm zone—his personal battlefield.

Terrifying Conqueror’s Haki radiated outward from Su Han’s body.

Even the trees untouched by the dark water trembled under this oppressive force.

Some trees cracked slightly under the sheer pressure.

Uchiha Madara instantly appeared atop a giant tree.

Gazing at Su Han, his eyes grew solemn and heavy as he murmured to himself.

"In this era... there still exists someone so terrifying. Such overwhelming dominance... It reminds me of Senju Hashirama!"

The Mangekyō Sharingan in Uchiha Madara’s eyes spun rapidly. A faint smile curled at his lips.

"Still, good! Rare chance to warm up... Wait... This feeling...?"

Before Uchiha Madara could finish speaking, a terrifying surge of energy roared from afar.

Uchiha Madara abruptly looked toward the distance, his expression frozen in shock.

The trees covering the entire Uchiha estate in the distance cracked apart all at once.

"Boom!"

The earth trembled incessantly.

Splinters of wood flew everywhere.

At the same time, countless cracks appeared in the void itself.

A giant figure descended from the sky, wielding a naginata, his hearty laughter echoing throughout the arena.

"Master Chairman, I've long admired Uchiha Madara! May I have this opponent?"

Little
