Chapter 238 How did you awaken the Kaleidoscope?
"ah??"
"chat!?"
The minds of Tsunade and the other three went completely blank, leaving them utterly stunned.
In an instant, the string that had been stretched to its limit snapped.
At that moment, time seemed to slow down before their eyes.
Only the sea breeze continued to blow tirelessly, ruffling the old man's waist-length white hair and the corner of Hiruzen Sarutobi's shrine robe embroidered with the character "fire".
The hems of their clothes fluttered in the wind, creating an eerie harmony.
The raging chakra that had gathered on Tsunade's fist hadn't yet dissipated in the air, and Akimichi Torifu's massive, mountain-like body remained in its most solid defensive stance...
The four of them adopted a battle-or-death stance, protecting the Hokage behind them.
Their enemy was Uchiha Madara, the ninja demon who should have been buried in the Valley of the End, existing only in scrolls and legends.
As a result, the Hokage, whom they were protecting, told them in a casual tone, as if he were taking a stroll in his own backyard...
Just chatting?
What an absurd and bizarre scene this is.
Tsunade's mind went blank, and she almost thought she was hallucinating because she was rushing so fast.
to chat with?
And this person?
She felt her thoughts were completely jumbled up. For the first time, her mind, which she inherited from the First Hokage and was usually fearless, was unable to process the information in front of her.
Chatting with Madara Uchiha?
The man who fought his grandfather Hashirama Senju throughout his life, igniting the Warring States period, and was ultimately "killed" at the Valley of the End?
Are you kidding me!
This is a million times more outrageous than telling her that Orochimaru suddenly fell in love with Jiraiya!
Akimichi Torifu's enormous body was as stiff as a stone statue.
His enormous brain capacity was simply unable to process the information in front of him. All he knew was that he was blocking Hiruzen's way, but Hiruzen told him, "It's okay, don't block the way, we're chatting."
Danzo Shimura was the first of the four to regain a semblance of thinking ability from that extreme rigidity.
His body remained in the hand seal posture, and the invisible wind blades surrounding him did not dissipate.
But beneath that gloomy face, a raging storm was brewing.
Not right.
Something's really wrong.
This man, who called himself Uchiha Madara, did indeed possess an aura that seemed capable of crushing the entire world. His purple concentric circle eyes exuded a strange and sublime quality that was completely incomprehensible to him.
But... he didn't have any murderous intent.
There wasn't a trace of murderous intent in it.
He simply stood there, like an ancient monument that had stood for a thousand years, silent and ancient, yet without any proactive aggression.
And Hiruzen...
Danzo glanced out of the corner of his eye at his close friend, who was being protected by Akimichi Torifu behind him.
Hiruzen's posture is too relaxed.
It wasn't the exhaustion after a battle, nor was it a bluff; it was a genuine peace that came from within.
It was as if the person standing opposite him wasn't a demon from the ninja world, but a senior he hadn't seen in a long time.
What exactly is going on?
Danzo's mind was racing, trying to piece together a logical clue from this absurd scene.
However, it was precisely at the eye of the storm that this frozen silence was broken.
Madara Uchiha's gaze slowly shifted from the mountain-like Akimichi Torifu, then swept over the wary Shimura Danzo, and paused for a moment on Tsunade, whose chakra was almost out of control, as if he were feeling a little nostalgic.
Throughout, he seemed completely oblivious to the hostility emanating from those four people, a hostility powerful enough to tear the sea apart.
It was as if those standing before him were not four of Konoha's top experts, but rather a few somewhat reckless juniors.
The ancient Uchiha simply turned his wrinkled face slightly toward one of the four.
More precisely, it landed on Uchiha Kagami's blood-red eyes, which were swirling with three black scythes.
—Uchiha Kagami.
An indescribable resonance caused Uchiha Kagami's body to involuntarily tense up.
Before the other's strange eyes, which glowed with concentric purple circles, even his proud Mangekyou Sharingan seemed to groan in submission.
"Nice eyes."
The assessment, though aged, was delivered with a powerful, resonant voice from Madara Uchiha's lips.
His entire attention was focused on Uchiha Kagami's kaleidoscope, which was slowly rotating and had three intersecting black scythes.
"To be able to stand in this position next to Hiruzen Sarutobi, it seems that he has indeed changed a lot of things."
Madara Uchiha's words carried a hint of inquisitive interest; he seemed quite intrigued by the scene before him.
His senses lingered on Uchiha Kagami for a moment, and a hint of approval appeared in those Rinnegan eyes.
Then, a question, spanning decades, was slowly posed to the descendants of the Uchiha clan.
How did you awaken your Mangekyou Sharingan?
Uchiha Kagami's body jolted violently.
This problem....
Hiruzen Sarutobi sensed Kagami's hesitation, smiled, and patted his old friend on the shoulder.
"call....."
Uchiha Kagami's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, instantly calmed down. He faced the legendary figure again, and there was no longer any panic in his heart.
