Second Tsuchikage: Opening against Uchiha Madara Chapter 024

Wu nodded, intending to find others himself.

Relying solely on Tobirama Senju might be enough to kill Madara Uchiha, but he wanted to increase the win rate!

So, he had other candidates.

“I can try to contact Kirigakure, Kumogakure, and Sunagakure!” Wu said in a deep voice.

Tobirama Senju’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he also spoke, “I can go find those old guys from Uzushio.”

“Doesn’t Madara have the Nine-Tails? That Nine-Tails is also troublesome, but with the help of Uzushio, it will be much better…”

The two hit it off immediately.

They would go separately to recruit people to participate in the plan to assassinate Madara Uchiha.

“Then we’ll contact each other later…” Wu finished speaking and then left directly.

In the office, Tobirama Senju quietly gazed at the candlelight.

“I can’t let Big Brother know about this…”

Tobirama Senju decided to select thirty Senju ninja from his clan to participate with him in the plan to kill Madara Uchiha.

Despite the village being established, there were still many Senju members within the clan who harbored hatred for the Uchiha.

Their relatives had all been killed by the Uchiha—their children, wives, parents, all slaughtered by the Uchiha.

They had no attachments, all single.

Commonly known as “invincible people.”

So, finding those people, they would definitely agree!

Land of Water, Kirigakure Village.

After traveling for over a night, Wu crossed the Land of Fire and then the ocean, arriving at Kirigakure Village.

At this time, Gengetsu Hozuki, with his goatee, was vigorously reforming Kirigakure.

Since returning from Iwagakure, he had resolved to build Kirigakure’s Anbu and Ninja Academy.

Not only that, but Gengetsu Hozuki also established the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

This organization was above the Anbu.

Buzz!

Gengetsu Hozuki suddenly looked up at his surroundings, feeling something was amiss.

“Goatee, long time no see.”

A voice that surprised Gengetsu Hozuki appeared out of thin air.

“Baka! Wu, you actually came to my Kirigakure!?”

“You’re not planning to attack Kirigakure, are you?” Gengetsu Hozuki said cautiously.

“No, I’m just here to form an alliance with you!” Wu slowly extended his hand.

Gengetsu Hozuki was stunned, then raised an eyebrow slightly, “Hey, what kind of trick are you pulling again?”

“Tobirama Senju from Konoha Village and I plan to assassinate Madara Uchiha. Are you interested in participating?” Wu extended his hand in invitation.

Gengetsu Hozuki was a war maniac and a madman.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t fight so recklessly.

Bringing this guy into the team to assassinate Madara Uchiha was definitely feasible.

“Haha! Hunting Madara Uchiha?” Gengetsu Hozuki let out a dry laugh.

When he heard about fighting, his blood boiled.

But when he heard about beating Madara Uchiha, Gengetsu Hozuki immediately sobered up considerably.

He was a war maniac, but that didn’t mean he was an idiot.

“You, are you lovesick or something?” Gengetsu Hozuki couldn’t help but retort.

Wu shook his head faintly, “Since our Gengetsu Hozuki doesn’t dare to face Madara, then Tobirama Senju and I will go by ourselves.”

With that, Wu turned to leave.

“Wait! You said Tobirama Senju is with you?” Gengetsu Hozuki’s good rival, his good buddy, was actually going to dual-queue with another Water Release user. He immediately frowned.

“Wait! Wu! I’m coming too!” Gengetsu Hozuki quickly grabbed Wu’s sleeve and slapped his chest, agreeing immediately.

“It’s just Madara Uchiha? This old man is going to beat Madara Uchiha!”

Wu smiled slightly after hearing this.

“Gengetsu Hozuki, you’re truly the coolest Water Release user I’ve ever seen.”

Upon hearing Wu’s praise, Gengetsu Hozuki’s face flushed.

He then pretended to be cool and slicked back his yellow pompadour.

……….

Land of Lightning, Kumogakure Village.

“First Raikage, that’s how it is. As for whether to go or not, your village can decide.” Wu said in a deep voice, looking at the First Raikage seated on the Raikage’s chair.

The First Raikage’s expression was solemn as he pondered.

Killing Madara Uchiha was no small matter.

He heard that Madara Uchiha had even captured the Nine-Tails. The Gold and Silver Brothers he had sent to capture the Nine-Tails had not returned, so it seemed they had perished with the Nine-Tails…

The First Raikage thought for a long time, then looked at the Second Raikage beside him.

(Note: Because all Raikage are called A, and the Second Raikage has no name, he can only be referred to as Second Raikage.)

“Second, what do you think?” The First Raikage asked, stroking his chin.

“Raikage-sama, I think we should participate. Madara Uchiha has now defected from Konoha and might do something insane.”

“His motive for capturing the Nine-Tails shows that Madara Uchiha harbors ill intentions!” The Second Raikage said in a deep voice, indicating that they should fight.

“Alright, then you will lead twenty elite Kumogakure ninja to participate in the battle!”

………

After dealing with Kumogakure, it was time for the last one, Sunagakure.

Wu immediately arrived at Sunagakure Village and successfully met the First Kazekage.

“Oh? Our Land of Wind won’t do anything thankless. You should go back.” The First Kazekage, Retto, said indifferently to Wu with his arms crossed.

“Please reconsider, Kazekage. Does Kazekage-sama not understand the principle of ‘when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold’?” Wu used a warning.

Kazekage Retto was secretly speechless. Of course, he knew about the lips and teeth, but he was wondering if he could gain any benefits from Wu.

“If Sunagakure can contribute, Iwagakure can choose to give up its sphere of influence in the Land of Birds and hand over control of this area to Sunagakure Village.” Wu knew he had to offer some benefits, so he spoke again.

“Hmm, I can consider that…” Kazekage Retto pondered for a moment, then ordered someone to call Shamon.

Wu’s eyebrow twitched when he heard the name.

Shamon was indeed the Second Kazekage in the original story, the founder of Puppet Ninjutsu and Sand Manipulation. One could say, everything Gaara had, he had, and the Puppet Ninjutsu Gaara didn’t have, he also had.

“Let Shamon lead twenty elite Sunagakure ninja and go with Lord Wu to eliminate Madara Uchiha!”

Wu smiled faintly in his heart.

In his plan, he intended to form a lineup similar to the Five Kage fighting Rinnegan Madara in the Fourth Great Ninja War in the original story, to ensure they could steadily defeat Eternal Mangekyo Madara.

He would replace Onoki.

Gengetsu Hozuki would replace Mei Terumi.

Tobirama Senju would replace Tsunade.

The Second Raikage would replace the Fourth Raikage.

The Second Kazekage, Shamon, would replace Gaara.

With such a lineup, and without Madara having the Rinnegan, there was a high probability of taking down Eternal Mangekyo Madara.

Plus, the Second Kage of each village were all very strong.

Tobirama Senju might also invite Uzushiogakure to act.

At that time, even Madara Uchiha might stumble.

Land of Whirlpools, Uzushiogakure Village.

Tobirama Senju secretly arrived at the residence of the Uzushiogakure leader.

This elderly man, Ashina Uzumaki, was also half of Hashirama Senju’s father-in-law.

“Tobirama, why have you come to my Uzushiogakure?” Ashina Uzumaki asked unhurriedly while drinking tea.

“Old Clan Head, I apologize, but I came here to ask the Uzumaki clan to lend me, Tobirama, a hand!” Tobirama Senju replied respectfully.

Ashina Uzumaki, before him, was of the same generation as his father, Butsuma.

“Oh? What kind of help?” Ashina Uzumaki took a sip of tea, his eyes narrowing slightly.

“Help me kill Madara Uchiha!”

When Ashina Uzumaki heard that Tobirama wanted to kill Madara Uchiha, his hand trembled involuntarily!

“Hashi… no, does the Hokage know?” Ashina Uzumaki put down his teacup and asked seriously.

“Big… Big Brother doesn’t want to be the bad guy. Although he hasn’t explicitly said so, I understand that Big Brother wants to kill Madara Uchiha to remove a menace for the village, but Big Brother cannot be the bad guy, so it can only be me.” Tobirama Senju lied without batting an eye.

A flicker of doubt crossed Ashina Uzumaki’s eyes.

He didn’t think Hashirama was such a hypocritical person, did he?

However, he thought that killing Madara Uchiha would also benefit the Uzumaki.

After all, Madara Uchiha had killed many Uzumaki clan members during the Warring States period…

“Good, how many people do you need?”

“Fifty elite Uzumaki who are proficient in sealing jutsu will suffice!”
