Why not revive him!

Look in my eyes!

"Oh my, isn't this the arrogant Madara-sama from just now? What? You're the only one who didn't revive?" Tobirama Senju's mocking voice suddenly rang out.

As Tobirama Senju approached with his arms crossed, Madara grew even more displeased, staring at Hashirama and saying, "I remember you still owe one suicide."

Hashirama Senju said awkwardly, "Madara, are you serious? Didn't you say it was okay?"

As he spoke, Hashirama Senju noticed that Madara Uchiha had stopped talking and was instead silently watching a pair of lovebirds in the sky, seemingly feeding him dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).

"Hashirama."

"I am listening."

"My dream is over... From now on... you will be my eyes, help me see... the future of these young people... Don't lose..."

Quietly listening to Madara Uchiha's last words, even the second-in-command of the Senju clan, known as the most cunning, did not make a move against Madara at this moment.

after all.

Once Madara is dead, he'll slowly avenge the headshot he suffered not long ago.

Chapter 208 Three Years Later, a Belated Declaration of War

With the complete death of Isshiki Otsutsuki, the Fourth Shinobi World War came to an end.

After Madara finished speaking, he breathed his last and stared at Obito Uchiha, who was also about to lose his breath but had managed to collapse among his comrades:

"Was I... really wrong?"

"Who knows?" Hashirama Senju said, "We cannot predict the future, nor can we see through the past. All we can do now is follow the times and move forward."

Let future generations judge right and wrong.

Madara Uchiha closed his eyes and smiled with satisfaction: "It still has to be you, Hashi's hot mom..."

The wind was particularly noisy after the battle. A leaf, which seemed to have flown from nowhere, landed in front of Hashirama Senju, and he caught it.

Looking at the thin, brittle old leaves and the sturdy new leaves now, Hashirama Senju looked past the leaves towards Obito Uchiha and murmured:

"Tobirama, perhaps we old folks need to do something in this new era. Do you have any..."

"Huh? Tobirama? What are you doing?" Hashirama Senju noticed that Tobirama had run far away and couldn't help but turn around to look.

Tobirama Senju stood on the ground, pointing a finger at his brow, a smile on his face: "Hahaha! I've found you!"

A moment later, the water-style gusts of wind carried the two remaining White Zetsu clones from underground out of the ground, where they were quickly subdued by the excited Tobirama Senju.

"..."

As expected, there's still a generation gap between me and my younger brother...

On the other side, after giving his last words, Obito Uchiha also breathed his last.

In the Nine-Tailed Fox incident.

Kushina, the victim of the most grievances, still harbored some resentment.

But now that Obito is willing to sacrifice himself to revive them all, much of that resentment has dissipated.

"Minato, let's take Obito back and find him... to give him a proper resting place."

Minato Namikaze hummed in agreement, then, seeing the complex look in Naruto's eyes, patted his head and said, "Naruto, happy birthday."

Naruto was slightly startled.

Only after carefully calculating the current date did I realize that today is his birthday.

Thinking about his birthday today and being able to reunite with his parents, Naruto couldn't help but shed tears. Wiping away his tears, he said, "Yes! Thank you, Father. Thank you... Uncle Obito."

Although Shirahoshi doesn't quite understand Naruto's thoughts, she's probably more accepting of him than Obito forgiving her without her having done anything in the original story.

He looked at the dejected Sasuke, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Hey! It's alright. Why don't you call me Father Sasuke... uh. Never mind."

Seeing Sasuke's fierce gaze, Shirahoshi quickly covered her mouth.

He took a deep breath, pointed to the group of people still hanging in the tree, and asked, "Now that Madara Uchiha is dead, how do we break the Infinite Tsukuyomi? Also, when will you take me back to the past world?"

Bai Xing turned his head to look and said, "Anytime. But I need to go to the dragon vein to activate and control the energy of the dead dragon vein, and create a stable time tunnel."

"in addition."

"They don't seem willing to let me go either, do they?"

As Naruto began to speak, Minato and the others all turned to look at him.

Even without looking, Bai Xing could sense the complex emotions contained in the gaze.

Soon.

Minato Namikaze stepped out from the group.

"Um, that... Shirahoshi-senpai."

"He was just calling me 'sir' a moment ago."

"Uh... Lord Shirahoshi, um... those tailed beasts inside Isshiki Otsutsuki..."

As they spoke, the air suddenly became quiet.

Shirahoshi remained silent, as did the others, and Minato Namikaze also stopped speaking.

By now, Shirahoshi should understand what he means.

After a long pause, Bai Xing finally spoke.

"I need to study Isshiki Otsutsuki's body for a while. Once I've finished my research, I'll consider releasing those tailed beasts."

"Uh... So, how long?" Minato Namikaze asked, forcing himself to speak.

"I don't know." Bai Xing retorted directly: "This matter is settled. If you ask me again, I won't return it."

Seeing that Shirahoshi had said so, Minato felt embarrassed to bring up the matter on Kurama's behalf again.

"Damn it! My half-body!"

Yin Jiu Lama was howling loudly inside Naruto's stomach, leaving Naruto somewhat helpless.

soon.

Naruto and Sasuke simultaneously formed the Child Seal, and Sasuke didn't suddenly act strangely or say anything like "I am now the strongest in the ninja world." He tacitly released the ninjas from their restraints.

From this point on, the Fourth Shinobi World War truly came to an end.

......

The past world.

Loulan.

"Your Majesty, the envoys from Sunagakure have arrived again."

"We refuse. We, Loulan, insist on not participating in the Ninja World War."

"But...it seems they want to see the Minister of the Realm..."

boom!

Inside, Sally, seated in the Queen's chair, slapped the armrest: "Still trying to test us? Do they really think we, Loulan, are cowards?!"

"That..."

Before the captain of the Nikaido Guard, who had aged considerably over the past three years, could say anything more, the Queen of Loulan's voice interrupted him.

"I'll talk to them myself!"

......

After three years of chaotic warfare in the ancient kingdom of Loulan, countless ninjas have died or been wounded on various battlefields. Sand Village, bearing the pressure of impending defeat, has no choice but to come to Loulan again for help.

Second.

Over three years.

The all-powerful minister of the ancient Loulan Kingdom also disappeared for three years.

The soldiers of Loulan have been replaced batch after batch, and now they are basically powerful ninjas equipped with advanced weapons for defense.

Sunagakure Village's request was not high; they simply hoped that the Queen of Loulan would sell them these advanced equipment.

In this way, they might not suffer such a miserable defeat in the third war, and the Daimyo of the Land of Wind might be able to accept it.

"Elder Chiyo, are you sure they won't get angry about our visit? After all, Loulan has claimed to be neutral for the past three years. If we buy equipment from them, it would be tantamount to making them a participating nation."

“There’s no other way.” Seeing Yekura’s unease, Granny Chiyo shook her head: “We must consider the interests of Sunagakure first, not the interests of Roran.”

Yekura nodded in agreement.

at this time.

Suddenly, they heard Sally's voice.

"What a convenient way for Sunagakure to gain benefits."

"You've visited Loulan multiple times, thinking that even if you don't achieve your goal, you'll still drag Loulan into the conflict and make it a participating country. That's the idea, isn't it?"

Upon hearing someone reveal her entire plan, Granny Chiyo was immediately shocked, but she still managed to maintain her composure and looked up at the queen's phantom formed by purple chakra.

"My Queen!"

"My Queen!"×N

After Granny Chiyo bowed slightly to greet them, the other Sand Village ninjas beside her followed suit.

"Humph."

Facing this group of hypocritical ninjas, Sally didn't pay them much attention. Instead, she raised her hand and had the declaration of war she had prepared beforehand handed to her by the gatekeeper, Miss Hikari.

"Queen."

In three years, Uchiha Hikari was no longer a little girl; she had grown to about 1.68 meters tall and was holding a gorgeous letter, which she handed to Queen Sally.

After grabbing the envelope, Sally tossed it to Chiyo and her group like a shuriken.

Seeing Chiyo accept the letter with a bewildered expression, Sally then revealed her thoughts: "This letter is our declaration of war from Loulan. From today onwards, the ancient kingdom of Loulan will declare war on the Kingdom of Wind. Are you satisfied now, Elder Chiyo?"
