Chapter 58 - Chapter 58: My heartbeat recognized you before I did!

"Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"

Mu controlled the Dust Release light beam, attacking Senju Hashirama.

Senju Hashirama quickly dodged, clapped his hands together, and a large amount of Wood Release tree trunks coiled towards Mu, while the previous Wood Release began to sprout flowers.

Immediately following, a large amount of pollen dust was emitted.

Mu frowned slightly; he needed to defend against this.

He didn't have Susanoo to block this thing.

So, the Dust Release that was attacking Hashirama changed direction to clear the forest first!

Boom--!

Wherever the Dust Release light beam passed, the forest was instantly peeled into atoms and dissipated.

"Wood Release: Wood Golem Technique!"

But Senju Hashirama did not stop there.

He clapped his hands together, and the giant Wood Golem Technique was unleashed.

The Wood Golem raised its thick arms high and smashed down fiercely towards Mu!

Mu's figure flickered, dodging the attack, and he once again unleashed Dust Release, transforming into a light beam that cut towards the Wood Golem.

The light beam, without surprise, cut through the Wood Golem.

Senju Hashirama was expressionless; taking advantage of the gap while Mu was attacking the Wood Golem, he formed hand seals again, and countless giant tree trunks shot out from the ground, coiling around Mu from all directions.

Mu snorted coldly, his Chakra surged, and he erupted with Dust Release, instantly pulverizing the vines.

Whoosh!

But at that moment...

"I found a weakness!"

Senju Hashirama had already appeared before him.

A heavy Chakra punch landed hard on Mu's abdomen.

Mu grunted, his body uncontrollably flying backward.

After landing,

Mu stabilized himself, his eyes becoming even more sinister.

Senju Hashirama looked troubled; to only be in pain after taking his punch, in the past, it would have ripped out his internal organs.

"Even with half my strength reduced..."

Mu began to hesitate whether to dispel his clones and then activate Sage Mode.

That's right, Mu himself was also weakened.

Before coming, he had already accumulated Senjutsu Chakra in his clones in a hidden place, so he could use Sage Mode at any time.

Mu would not put all his eggs in one basket.

Mu was quite cautious.

So he had arranged for clones to accumulate Senjutsu Chakra in advance.

"No, there's no need!"

"Genjutsu: Bringer of Darkness Technique!"

Mu quickly formed hand seals, casting another forbidden Jutsu.

"You actually learned Tobirama's Jutsu!" (In the original work, this Jutsu was developed by Hashirama.)

Senju Hashirama's expression changed, and then his vision instantly became extremely dark.

If it were in the past, he wouldn't have fallen for a Genjutsu of this level.

But now, the Edo Tensei's weakening ability was immense.

"Let everything fall into darkness; in the merciless darkness, there is no way to resist!"

"Sealing Jutsu..."

A scroll appeared in Mu's hand, and he flew directly towards Senju Hashirama with the sealing scroll!

Although he really wanted to try his Dust Release,

It was safer to use Sealing Jutsu just in case.

Senju Hashirama hastily manipulated Wood Release to attack wildly.

"I remember!"

Senju Hashirama, on his side, carefully recalled how to dispel this Genjutsu, and immediately formed hand seals quickly, dispelling the Genjutsu.

However, Mu was already face-to-face, and there was no time to react.

"Tobirama, I've done my best. I've held him off for so long, you should have successfully returned to Konoha by now..."

Senju Hashirama showed helplessness.

He had done his best; this Edo Tensei was not good enough.

He could only exert half of his strength at most.

Willing, but unable!

Just at the critical moment!

A familiar figure darted like lightning, instantly blocking Senju Hashirama's path!

"It's you!"

Mu's pupils suddenly constricted, his face filled with astonishment.

That gaze, that person, he would absolutely not mistake him!

Whoosh!

Accompanied by a sharp whooshing sound, the newcomer was as swift as a gale, the fan in his hand like a black whirlwind, fiercely fanning towards Mu!

Boom!

The huge impact sent Mu flying backward like a kite with a broken string. Mu used his flight to land steadily, looking at the newcomer in surprise.

"Hey, Hashirama, giving up so easily isn't like you!"

A familiar voice resonated like a great bell in Senju Hashirama's ears.

Senju Hashirama's body trembled violently!

"It's..."

Senju Hashirama's eyes widened, staring intently at the familiar back in front of him, his throat feeling as if something was blocked, unable to make a sound.

In the long battle, my heartbeat recognized you before I did!

The person holding the Uchiha fan slowly turned his head, revealing that familiar face.

"Long time no see, Hashirama."

Tears welled up in Senju Hashirama's eyes.

"Madara... It's good to see you again..."

An Edo Tensei body cannot cry, but a brother can!

"Still the same, huh...?"

Uchiha Madara's lips curved slightly, revealing a faint smile, a smile that contained too many emotions.

"You were also summoned by Tobirama...."

Senju Hashirama originally thought Madara was also summoned by Tobirama, but then he noticed that Madara did not have the same deathly aura as himself, and he stopped mid-sentence.

"Alright, Hashirama, don't ask anything."

Uchiha Madara did not tell Hashirama the truth.

He had a deeper ideal in his heart, and he felt there was no need to tell Hashirama.

Madara, holding his Uchiha fan, glared fiercely at Mu, who had been repelled.

"The top priority is to deal with this bastard!"

Seeing this, Senju Hashirama did not press further and slowly stood up.

"With the two of us together, there's nothing that can stop us!"

"Brothers united, their strength cuts gold!"

Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama stood side by side.

Their eyes were sharp, looking coldly at Mu.

"Looks like Hōzuki Gengetsu is going to eat ten catties..."

Mu looked at Madara, who was still alive but had lost one eye, and thought of what Hōzuki Gengetsu had said earlier: "If Madara doesn't die, he'll eat ten catties..."

It was a pity there was no camera yet, otherwise he would definitely have to show Hōzuki Gengetsu.

Mu looked at the two of them indifferently.

He didn't feel the situation was dire.

It was just right to eliminate Madara, this unstable factor, at the same time.

In fact, his fear and worry filter for the two of them had long disappeared.

Before, just the two of them standing there would make Mu want to run away.

But now it was different.

In his eyes,

These two were merely his defeated opponents.

If he could kill them once, he could kill them a second time!

Although he didn't have the help of Hōzuki Gengetsu and the others,

On the other hand, Hashirama and Madara were also incomplete; one had an injured eye, and the other only had half of his strength.

"Madara, I only have half my strength now, so my cooperation will be limited."

Senju Hashirama said solemnly to Madara.

Uchiha Madara said nothing, only nodded.

Immediately after, the two figures flashed!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

In an instant,

Senju Hashirama appeared like lightning on the left, his fist fiercely swinging towards Mu.

At the same time,

Uchiha Madara flashed out from the right, his leg kicking towards Mu like a gale.

This pincer attack from left and right was as fast as lightning!

Only two loud bangs were heard, exploding in the air like muffled thunder.

The surrounding airflow was scattered by this powerful force.

The imagined scene did not occur.

Mu was seen steadily catching both their attacks.

Mu crossed his arms, one hand tightly gripping Hashirama's fist, the other hand tightly gripping Madara's ankle.

"You two are truly not what you used to be..."

Mu's faint voice rang in their ears.

Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara's expressions changed.

Boom! Whoosh--!!!

A surge of black Senjutsu Chakra rose from Mu's body!

Immediately after, Mu's body was enveloped in black Immortal Technique, with black aura occasionally floating around him.

Black markings also appeared on his face.

Mu slowly opened his eyes.

When his eyes were fully open,

His previously normal pupils had disappeared.

In their place was an inky black color, and within the inky black eyes, colorful black flowing light occasionally flickered.

Sage Mode, activated!
