471. The United Anti-Konoha Front

Seeing the Second Mizukage, Gengetsu Hōzuki, emerge from the coffin beside him, Mu's expression immediately darkened.

Without a word, he raised his hand, a conical Dust Release technique ready to fire.

Gengetsu, noticing this, quickly formed hand seals, preparing to unleash a powerful Water Release technique.

The atmosphere in the room grew tense.

"Calm down, former Kage of the present."

Orochimaru slowly raised a finger, activating the pre-set curse marks to control the Second Tsuchikage and Second Mizukage.

"Dammit, why can't I move?!"

Gengetsu Hōzuki narrowed his eyes, his face showing clear displeasure.

The Second Tsuchikage, Mu, known as the "Strategist," quickly deduced what was happening.

"Hmph, it seems this is the Impure World Reincarnation technique created by that guy, Tobirama Senju."

"It looks like Konoha's descendants have produced quite the remarkable figure."

"But..."

"What's with all these people around us?"

Even Mu, known for his intellect, was struggling to understand the situation. Logically, someone from Konoha's lineage should be the one capable of using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

So why were there shinobi from various villages gathered here?

Had the ninja world truly achieved peace, with the Five Great Nations uniting in harmony?

The Third Raikage and Third Kazekage, who had also emerged, shared the same confusion.

Why had all these old-timers been brought back to life?

Only Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju, seeing the various headbands around them, fell into deep thought.

Had Konoha been destroyed?

Seeing this, Obito finally stepped forward to explain.

He spoke of how Konoha had become overwhelmingly dominant, seeking to conquer the world, and how they now needed the former Kage to step up and contribute.

After his lengthy explanation, the former Kage finally understood the current state of the ninja world.

"Hmph, I never thought the Four Great Nations would one day cooperate."

Mu sighed with emotion.

After Hashirama Senju's death, the Five Great Nations had been in constant conflict, accumulating endless hatred for one another.

Yet now, to counter Konoha, they had united once more.

Truly, the world was unpredictable...

"Tch, cooperating with you is truly a disgrace, Tsuchikage."

Gengetsu Hōzuki, ever the narcissist, adjusted his slicked-back hair, his words as sharp as ever.

Fortunately, Mu didn't engage in further argument with him.

As a calm and collected individual, he understood the primary conflict facing Iwagakure.

As long as they could defeat Konoha and ensure Iwagakure's survival, everything else could be tolerated for now.

The Third Raikage also quickly voiced his stance:

"I can't wait to fight alongside my son!"

The Third Kazekage nodded as well, signaling his agreement with Obito's proposal—

a united front against Konoha!

Amidst this atmosphere of unity against Konoha, only Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju exchanged uneasy glances.

"Uh, who is this Danzō guy? It seems like everyone's really afraid of him."

Hashirama whispered, keeping his voice low.

Tobirama rubbed his temples and replied:

"Idiot brother, Danzō Shimura is my student!"

"Oh! That kid..."

With his brother's reminder, Hashirama finally remembered who Danzō was, and then asked:

"After you died, did you pass the Hokage position to Danzō?"

This question made Tobirama frown.

"No, I passed it to Hiruzen. Why would Danzō become Konoha's leader?"

"Did Hiruzen die, or did Danzō stage a coup?"

He proposed two possibilities, but neither changed the fact that Konoha was facing its greatest crisis in history.

This was a coalition of four nations... No matter how well Danzō had developed Konoha, or how strong it had become, it couldn't possibly stand against a united force of four nations, could it?

Perhaps sensing his brother's concern, Hashirama smiled and reassured him:

"Don't worry, have faith in Konoha's younger generation."

"I believe they can lead Konoha through this crisis, just like we did back in the day!"

Faced with his ever-optimistic older brother, Tobirama sighed helplessly.

As the two brothers conversed, the other Kage had already reached a preliminary agreement.

Now, there was only one final issue—

"But what do you mean by controlling us like this?"

Mu turned to Obito and asked.

Cooperation was one thing, but Mu wasn't naive enough to believe that the Four Great Nations could truly become inseparable allies.

After all, this guy was from Konoha. What if he manipulated them to turn against the Allied Forces on the battlefield?

Hearing this, everyone once again turned their attention to Orochimaru and Obito.

The latter had no choice but to release his control over the former Kage and remove the curse marks embedded in their bodies.

"Don't worry, as allies, we naturally won't continue to control you, esteemed predecessors."

Obito smiled as he handed over the kunai embedded with the curse marks to the representatives of each village.

Feeling their chakra flow restored, the former Kage finally showed signs of satisfaction.

Except for two individuals—

Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage, known as the "God of Shinobi."

And his younger brother, Tobirama Senju, the Second Hokage.

"As for these two, they'll obediently become puppets of the Allied Forces and attack the village they once swore to protect!"

Obito said without hesitation, revealing his Mangekyō Sharingan.

Seeing this, Tobirama could no longer hold back.

"Indeed, the Uchiha are an inherently evil clan!"

"You evil Uchiha brat, I'll—"

He was about to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly decapitate Obito.

Unfortunately, the moment he activated it, Tobirama's body began to lose control.

He collapsed to the ground, his consciousness rapidly fading.

"Perhaps I should have listened to my brother and abandoned this forbidden technique."

At this moment, a hint of regret finally appeared in Tobirama's eyes.

He never imagined that after his death, he would be manipulated using the forbidden technique he had created in life, forced to attack the village he had sworn to protect.

Could there be anything more ironic in the entire ninja world?

Hearing Tobirama's words, Hashirama was about to say something, but Obito had no interest in listening to their ramblings.

He immediately ordered Orochimaru to activate the curse marks, turning them into emotionless puppets.

While this wouldn't allow them to unleash the full power of the God of Shinobi, it was the only option.

After all, who could expect the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, to help them attack Konoha?

In any case, the Four Kage Summit had finally achieved decisive results.

The United Anti-Konoha Front had taken shape.
