Vwoom—
Two layers of shimmering chakra cloaks, one blue and one white, instantly appeared, covering the First and Second Hokage. Naruto's perception condensed, instantly analyzing: this was a certain way of applying chakra, similar to Sakura's monstrous strength! With a thought, his entire body's chakra also erupted and wrapped around him, and a warm, yellow chakra cloak instantly covered his whole body.
Suddenly, "Kid! Dodge!" Hashirama Senju's urgent warning boomed like thunder. In the same instant, his punch already violently struck, having almost reached Naruto's nose.
Bang—
The strong gust hit his face, but Naruto seemed oblivious. At the extreme moment he felt the fierce punch wind on his face, he casually tilted his head! It was as precise as if sculpted by a ruler! The wild punch gale grazed his cheek, the surging air current exploding behind him!
"Naruto, you!" Hashirama's roar had just erupted as he watched the boy's textbook-perfect, extreme micro-evasion! His tense worry instantly transformed into childlike exhilaration. "That's fantastic, Naruto!" He couldn't help but cheer. If this kid had been gone just like that, such a genius of Konoha, he'd be heartbroken for days!
Naruto glanced sideways at the First Hokage, who was happy like a child and still had the surplus energy to resist control and cheer. Naruto decided to increase the "dosage"!
"This is bad, Naruto! Orochimaru's control is getting stronger! I can barely resist! You need to be careful!"
Stop rambling, just come at me!
"Get out of the way!" The Second Hokage warned again.
Whoosh!
Another iron fist shot out like a cannonball! The air was brutally pushed aside, emitting a sharp, explosive roar! Yet, the trajectory, speed, and even the chakra fluctuation contained within this punch... all unfolded clearly in Naruto's mind, like a precise blueprint. He simply closed his eyes. Vision? At this moment, it was merely a burden!
He turned his body, twisted his waist! His movements were as fluid as flowing clouds and water; the incoming punch wind brushed past his clothes! At the same time, his right fist, like a heavy hammer returning to its sheath, sank to his waist. His shoulder blades tautened like a bow, his spine coiled like a dragon storing power! All his strength twisted into a highly compressed mass of chakra! Simultaneously, a burst of force erupted. This chakra spun and compressed, exploding into a spiraling force!
"Mystic Palm Taijutsu: Justice Punch!"
The punch landed! It didn't tear space, but was a pure, explosive burst of speed and power breaking the sound barrier! Where the fist passed, only a white, distorted shockwave remained!
Bang—
The sound was dull, like a ten-ton forging hammer smashing rotten wood! The fist solidly imprinted itself on the Second Hokage's chest. The compressed spiraling force, after entering the Second Hokage's body, instantly released, as if a miniature Tailed Beast Bomb had detonated within his Edo Tensei body! Rotten, fragmented Edo Tensei pieces mixed with chakra sparks, spraying and exploding in a perfect radial pattern, like a clay figure smashed mid-air by an invisible giant palm!
Vwoom—
Before the dilapidated remains could even land... tiny paper fragments began to gather, slowly and steadily repairing the damage! The Second Hokage was a bit weak! Could he not even withstand this much power? Later, would an AOE attack directly wipe him out? If so, Naruto would be quite confused.
"Hahahaha, good kid!" Hashirama's booming laughter shook the leaves. "That punch has got some kick! When I was your age, I was still skipping stones on the river!"
Heh. Naruto didn't even look, continuing to increase the "dosage"! This time, the First Hokage was once again struggling with "Orochimaru" for control of his body. Meanwhile, the Second Hokage lay quietly on the ground, like a shattered porcelain doll, countless tiny paper fragments gathering and intertwining in reverse flow... slowly reconstructing his limbs!
"Naruto!" The Second Hokage's newly restored head suddenly spoke, his voice calm: "Very good! It seems I no longer need to inform you of my weakness. Maintain this intensity! Until the sealing squad arrives—" Before he could finish, the rationality in his eyes vanished. From this moment on, he was a merciless killing machine. His goal: eliminate Naruto! But his body had not yet fully recovered, so he could only lie on the ground, waiting for his cooldown.
Whoosh!
The sound of a whip kick tearing through the air suddenly arose! Naruto almost instinctively shifted his body and lowered his waist, his right leg powerfully sweeping upwards like an iron pillar... directly meeting the First Hokage's wild, powerful horizontal kick!
BOOM!!!
Two immense forces collided head-on in mid-air, the muffled thunderous roar hurting his eardrums! Under the violent impact, Naruto used the force to swiftly retreat, widening the distance! His gaze rapidly swept towards the First Hokage. Indeed, after increasing the "dosage," those tiger eyes, once filled with hearty cheer and fervor, now held only an unfathomable, frozen stillness. The last flicker of struggling consciousness had been mercilessly swallowed by the command!
Killing Machine Unit 1, online.
"Water Style: Water Severing Wave!"
The reborn "Killing Machine Unit 2"—Tobirama Senju—pushed his palms forward simultaneously! One, two, multiple incredibly compressed, hair-thin yet space-rending super-high pressure water blades, shrieked as they sliced through the air, instantly piercing towards him!
"Taijutsu just started warming up, and now he's switching to 'Ninjutsu Channel'?" Naruto's eyebrow slightly raised: "Too bad... when it comes to 'flashy moves,' I'm an encyclopedia!"
"Then... let's start with a small Fire Style to warm things up!" With a casual swipe of his finger, hand seals formed like butterflies.
"Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!"
Boom—
Torrential dragon flames roared and surged, like an underground forge overflowing! Instantly swallowing the water blades! Super high temperatures clashed with the torrents, exploding into a blinding, white mushroom cloud of steam that covered the sky! Multiple small water blades were insufficient to block Naruto's Fire Style. The surging flames erupted violently, instantly engulfing the First and Second Hokage, and then quickly spread to the surroundings. The poor Forest of Death, still not recovered, welcomed its second extinction!
Forest of Death: *I &%￥... again?
In the air, the distant horizon was stained with an eerie crimson! Even from tens of kilometers away, the surging firelight, scorching the sky, was like the pupil of a giant beast... fiercely gazing at Konoha!
Turning his head towards the direction of the flames, Kakashi's Sharingan constricted, noticing the scale of the power. After the Fire Style on the rooftop dissipated, the trees and earthen walls within the arena were completely destroyed, opening up the view. One could clearly see that only the Third Hokage and Orochimaru remained confronting each other in the arena. As for Naruto, and the First and Second Hokage summoned by Orochimaru—their traces were completely gone!
"That Fire Style is Naruto's!" His heartstrings instantly tautened. His thoughts were exactly the same as the Third Hokage's! Although Naruto was a genius and powerful, facing legendary opponents like the First and Second Hokage, he had absolutely no chance of victory.
With this thought, a hint of pain flashed in his eyes. His PTSD was acting up again. He had already lost too much: his father, his sensei, Rin. Was he going to lose Naruto this time too? His single eye beneath his headband had condensed into a scarlet, icy point. He had decided: even if he had to burn himself out... he would sever this despairing cycle! He had to go. If he could use that technique, there might still be a chance to save Naruto.
"Forest of Death direction! Can't wait!" He intended to leave.
Whoosh!
A familiar emerald green whirlwind, however, arrived first! A hand as solid as cast iron firmly pressed on his shoulder! Might Guy stood against the wind, beneath his perpetually spirited bowl cut... were resolute eyes burning with blazing solar flames!
"Kakashi!" His voice was as heavy as stone: "The youth who never gives up! Your lifelong rival won't be absent from the battle!" He paused, his gaze sweeping towards the formidable firelight in the sky, each word weighing a thousand pounds: "First, Second... they are myths! But for the village, for my comrades... I, Might Guy, am willing to burn my 'youth'! Just like my father did back then!"
"Good!" The two teamed up and headed towards the Forest of Death.
However, along the way, more and more ninjas joined them! Perceiving this, Naruto thought to himself: Oh no. He wanted many spectators, but he didn't want them close. These people were even weaker than the Second Hokage. Naruto was genuinely worried that he might accidentally take them out with some unknown AOE attack!
Given this: looking at the First and Second Hokage who had survived his world-ending Fire Style, Naruto's lips curled into a smile: "Second Hokage, I hear your Water Style is very strong? Then watch mine!"
This time, with no more hiding, he clapped his hands, completing his hand seals!
"Water Style: Wrath of Mazu!"
