Time goes back a few minutes
"This..."
Tsunade, Jiraya, and the rest of the Kage looked at the figures in the coffin.
Kozuki, who wasn't much surprised, suddenly noticed something different.
"How is this...?
Sensing the vast aura of people in the coffins, Kozuki pupils shrank immediately.
As Kozuki was surprised, the figures lying in the coffins walked out as they looked around with confusion and surprise.
"Aren't we dead"
"Where is this...?"
"Those stone faces... I'm back in the living world."
The Reanimated Third Raikage, Second Mizukage, 2nd Tsuchikage, 3rd Kazekage looked around in confusion.
Hashirama Senju looked at the stone faces and, after some confusion, recognized that he was brought back to the living world and was in Konoha.
"This... is the Reanimation Jutsu"
Tobirama, who was the inventor of this Jutsu, after clearing his mind, recognized this Jutsu immediately.
"The Past Kage"
Minato and others said with a solemn expression on their faces.
"Grandpa"
Tsunade was somewhat happy and fearful after seeing Hashirama.
Hearing her voice, Hashirama looked back, and after looking at her for a while, he asked with some expectation.
"Are you... Tsuna?"
Hashirama asked with a smile on his face.
"Is that you, Onoki?"
Mu, the second Tsuchikage, also recognized the old Onoki cause of his unique height.
"I'm sorry to spoil your little reunion, but please get to work."
Orochimaru didn't give the Past Kage much time to assess the situation and made a hand sign as all the reanimated Kage found their body out of control.
"Are you the caster of this Jutsu?"
Even if their body was out of control, Tobirama and the others could still think and talk.
"Tobirama, Didn't I tell you to stop developing such a Jutsu?"
"Shut up"
Hashirama tried to admonish his little brother but only to be ruthlessly rebuked with no respect of a Ninja God.
Even Orochimaru had black lines on his forehead after seeing the insult of Hashirama.
"Our bodies aren't in our control; try to stop us. We'll tell you our weaknesses."
Orochimaru made another hand sign as Chakra erupted from them; Minato and others also put a fighting stance as they knew the most challenging fight was about to start.
Back to the present,
Kozuki, who sensed the immense aura of Hashirama, was so surprised that for a moment, his focus on the village wavered.
"Damn..."
Kozuki, who, after a moment of surprise, sensed the aura of Fukashi disappearing along with Kushina, cursed.
Kozuki fully released his Observation Haki as it began to spread around.
1 Kilometer
2 Kilometres
3....
4....
"Found you"
Kozuki, at nearly 4 Kilometres away from Konoha, Found the Chakra of Fukashi, Kushina, Gaara, and six pains.
The Chakra of Kushina was increasing continuously.
It seems that she is already in 4 tails state fighting them.
Gaara had already entered the tail beast stage but still was beaten by a vast evil chakra.
Kozuki wanted to go there, but looking at Hashirama, he knew no one in the village would be able to handle him.
"Kushina San, please hold on for a while."
Kozuki hoped that Kushina and Gaara could hold for a while he deals with the First Hokage.
Minato and others who were ready to deal with the past, Kage suddenly saw a shadow flashing, and Kozuki appeared in front of them.
The expression on the face of everyone turned ugly as they knew him joining the battle made things even more difficult.
"Hehe, I'm curious what you will do."
Remembering what Fukashi had said about Shanks, Orochimaru looked at Kozuki curiously.
He wondered whether he would fight alongside him and destroy Konoha or betray Akatsuki.
"This chakra"
Hashirama, who saw Kozuki appearing in front of him, was surprised by the amount of Chakra he felt from the opponent.
It was no less than him at his peak.
Looking at Hashirama in front of him, Kozuki took a deep breath and freed the suppressed aura.
It is the first time he will fight with nearly all of his strength.
"Boom..."
The aura suppressed by Kozuki broke out, and a vast force enveloped the whole Konoha.
Every Shinobi civilian in the village felt their chest tight for a moment, and even the walls around Konoha began to crack.
They were shocked whether it was Minato, all the Kage, the reanimated Shinobi, or Orochimaru.
"What's with this...aura, even the heavens."
Minato looked at the sky above and saw that black clouds gathered above Konoha, and even lightning began to flash.
The grey robe of Kozuki was fluttering in the air due to a red aura emitting from him constantly; even the space around him seemed to shake.
The fight in the whole Konoha stopped as everyone looked stupidly at the roof of the fighting square or precisely at Kozuki, surrounded by a red aura.
"This guy..."
Hashirama looked at Kozuki in front, and for the first time in his life, he began to wonder whether he could beat the man in front.
Even dealing with Madara, he always had the confidence to defeat him, but today was the first time he wasn't confident.
"I need to end this quickly."
Not caring for the stunned Minato and the rest of the villagers, Kozuki thought as he didn't have much time.
(Merry Christmas)
