The domineering Uchiha drove the Third Hokage mad!

Chapter 67 Reanimation Jutsu: Hashirama

(Poor, poor author! He's been staying up all night writing, his eyes are practically evolving into Sharingan! Please, everyone, give this book a five-star review!)

The Konoha Guard's dungeon is located 30 meters underground, and the deeper you go, the more murky the air becomes.

The three peaks of the Uchiha clan descended slowly down the stairs, flames casting flickering shadows on the walls.

On the third underground level, the area around the iron door was covered with scratch marks left by fingernails, the desperate marks left by the previous prisoner before his death.

"Click—"

The heavy iron gate was opened, and boots slammed into the waterlogged floor with an unpleasant squeaking sound.

In front of cell number 44, Uchiha Mitsunori stopped, his Sharingan slightly rotating to take in the other person's physical data.

Matsui Shigene, a Jonin, is 1.98 meters tall and specializes in taijutsu. His chakra pathways are 1.7 times wider than an average person's...

Matsui Shigene looked up warily, his eyes filled with unease: "It's not mealtime, you Uchiha brat, what do you want?"

Uchiha Mitsunori did not answer, and his three-tomoe Sharingan suddenly spun: Illusionary Shackles Technique.

Matsui Shigen's body stiffened instantly. His spiritual body was impaled by five large iron nails in the illusion, rendering him unable to move.

In reality, Uchiha Mitsunori has already used a special key to open the triple-encrypted prison door.

"The experimental subject's condition has been confirmed; it is suitable for Impure World Reincarnation."

Uchiha Mitsunori muttered to himself as he took out five crystal syringes from his ninja tool pouch.

Four of them contained a pale green fluorescent liquid that flowed slowly like a living thing in the dim light.

The last one was deep red, as thick as congealed blood.

He quickly formed hand seals, and two shadow clones appeared on his left and right.

The first shadow clone retrieved a precision syringe and precisely inserted the needle into Matsui Shigen's abdomen. The moment the needle touched the muscle, a deep red liquid automatically began to be injected.

"Uh... Ah..." Matsui Shigen's body began to spasm, and his consciousness, which had been sealed by the illusion, actually showed signs of struggling.

Uchiha Mitsunori frowned, his Sharingan swirling again, increasing the intensity of his genjutsu by 30%.

The second shadow clone disinfected the test subject's limbs and then inserted four syringes. As the pale green liquid was injected into the limbs, Matsui Shigene's back suddenly arched, and his vertebrae made a terrifying "crack" sound.

"Chakra level increased by 165%......278%......598%......921%......"

Uchiha Mitsunori stared at the wriggling protrusions under the test subject's skin, where Hashirama cells were proliferating wildly.

"Chakra levels have exceeded the critical point... Wait a minute!"

The subject's right arm suddenly swelled up like an inflated balloon, and bark-like patterns appeared on the skin's surface.

Note: The strength of a resurrected character is greatly influenced by the sacrifice offered. The stronger the sacrifice's body and the more chakra it contains, the stronger the resurrected character will be. Orochimaru used a Genin from Otogakure as a sacrifice for his resurrected characters during the Chunin Exams, which is why the resurrected Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju were quite weak.

When Matsui Shigen's chakra level reached 1312% of that of an ordinary Jonin, his body began to break down.

Uchiha Mitsumine began forming hand seals and slammed them onto the ground: "Snake-Sheep-Monkey-Boy-Horse-Tiger (Impure World Reincarnation Technique)"

Countless paper-like substances surged from the ground and wrapped around the experimental subject's body like living things.

The process was swift, yet excruciatingly painful. Matsui Shigene broke free from the illusion's control, letting out his final, agonizing cry: "Ah... Ahhh..."

The paper quickly covered his head, his face contorted, and his body gradually changed.

Finally, the dust settled, and a man with cascading black hair, clad in red armor from the Warring States period, stood before the three peaks of the Uchiha clan.

Hashirama Senju blinked, looking at his arm in confusion: "This is... Impure World Reincarnation..."

Uchiha Mitsunori bowed respectfully and said, "Lord Hashirama, I am the head of the security forces, Uchiha Mitsunori. I apologize for summoning you using the Impure World Reincarnation technique. There is something I need your help with."

Looking at the respectful Uchiha youth, Hashirama Senju laughed and said, "Young Uchiha, what's on your mind? Just say it!"

Uchiha Mitsunori took out a stack of documents and respectfully handed them over. The documents detailed the actions of Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, Koharu Utatane, and Homura Mitokado.

When Senju Hashira passed the scroll, his fingertips trembled almost imperceptibly.

The war that destroyed the nation, the truth behind the annihilation of the Uzumaki clan... Hashirama's hand suddenly tightened, the edge of the scroll was deformed by his grip.

As the reading progressed, the First Hokage's gentle expression gradually became distorted.

His breathing became heavy as he watched the "decline of the Senju clan";

When the reporter turned to the "Investigation Report on the Death of Senju Nawaki", the red armor moved without wind, and terrifying chakra erupted like a tsunami!

"boom......!"

"How dare they?"

Uchiha Mitsunori quickly formed hand seals to set up a soundproof barrier, but his eardrums were still hurt by the shockwave.

One by one, photos slipped from the paper... In an underground laboratory, dozens of children's corpses were soaked in culture tanks, each labeled "Wood Release Cell Adaptation Experiment".

"The roots killed more than 1300 children, and children were used for human experiments..."

"Hiruzen Sarutobi forced ninja academy students to graduate early, resulting in the deaths and injuries of 2389 children..."

"The corruption scandal involving Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado..."

"The actions of the Sarutobi, Shimura, Utatane, and Mito clans..."

Hashirama Senju had three major taboos.

First, there's Konoha Village. For the sake of the village, he was willing to betray his close friend, Uchiha Madara.

Secondly, it was about protecting children. Several of his brothers died before they even grew up. So, his initial intention in establishing the ninja village with Madara Uchiha was to protect children and ensure their safe growth, which later gradually evolved into a pursuit of peace.

Third, Hashirama Senju was once the head of the Senju clan, and one of his responsibilities was to ensure the continuation of the clan.

Now that the Sarutobi, Shimura, Utatane, and Mito clans have offended Hashirama Senju's three most sensitive points one by one, the usually amiable First Hokage suddenly unleashed a fierce killing intent.

As he bent down to pick up the photos, a gritted-teeth sound escaped his lips: "Are these... all real?"

Uchiha Mitsunori pointed to the last few pages of records: "We've already exposed the Root base, and Tsunade has been brought back to Konoha. As for the rest, you can use your shadow clones to ask around Konoha and you'll find out."

Hashirama Senju's eyes changed: "Hiruzen Sarutobi deserves to die, and the Sarutobi, Shimura, Utatane, and Mito clans also deserve to die!"
