A God of Death in Konoha Village

At the speed of an average ninja, it would take at least three days to reach Konoha even from Sunagakure Village, which is closest to the eastern border, let alone starting from the depths of the desert in the western part of the Land of Wind.

But it was such a long distance, and under the non-stop running of Uchiha zebras in the starry night, he returned to the outskirts of Konoha in just over two days.

During this period, in order to speed up his journey, he did not hesitate to use the complete Susanoo to rush on the road. He was so majestic along the way that he alarmed the entire ninja world.

And with the blessing of Susanoo and Sharingan, after Uchiha Madara entered the Land of Fire, no one dared to stop him, and he came to Konoha unimpeded.

A group of Konoha senior officials who had received the news were already waiting outside the village. As soon as they saw Uchiha Madara's figure, Senju Tobirama raised his hand and put it on his brother's shoulder.

With a rustle, the two figures disappeared and came to Uchiha Madara.

"What's wrong Madara?" Senju Hashirama came up and asked directly.

Senju Tobirama observed carefully: "Wait, this is"

Following his line of sight, Senju Hashirama looked into Uchiha Madara's arms and found a small figure covered in blood there.

"This is Ichigo" Senju Hashirama frowned.

Because Kurosaki Ichigo's body was no longer bleeding at this moment, and his whole body was wrapped in a white shell, making it difficult to see his true appearance.

Uchiha Madara took a breath: "That's right. Something went wrong with Ichigo when he was practicing Sage Mode."

Then he told the Senju brothers everything that happened in detail.

When other senior Konoha officials arrived, Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama had already finished listening to Uchiha Madara's story.

Senju Tobirama glanced at everyone, and then said in a voice that only Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara could hear: "Ichigo made a mistake in his training. It's probably useless to go to the hospital. It's better to let the elder brother take him." Go to my research room and try to see if you can save him."

Senju Hashirama nodded: "That's fine, Madara, just go and rest first."

"No need." Uchiha Madara shook his head and refused, "It won't be too late after Ichigo is cured."

Senju Hashirama knew that he cared about Ichigo, so he had no objection.

"We have to leave for a while, you should go back first." At this time, Senju Tobirama also finished giving instructions to the surrounding senior officials.

Everyone else agreed, but only the top brass of the Uchiha clan looked at Uchiha Madara.

Seeing this, Uchiha Madara just nodded casually, agreeing to Senju Tobirama's instructions.

After getting his approval, the senior officials also took a step back.

Senju Tobirama knew it was too late, so he directly grabbed Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, and instantly used the Flying Thunder God Technique to leave the place.

Uchiha Madara felt his eyes flash before his eyes, and he appeared in a spacious and bright laboratory.

"This is my research laboratory in the Forest of Death. It is used to develop ninjutsu, so the space is very large." Senju Tobirama introduced as he led the two of them to a room covering an area of ​​several hundred square meters. in an empty room.

Then he took out a simple bed from a small compartment and pushed it in front of the two of them.

Uchiha Madara also understood what he meant and put Kurosaki Ichigo up who had been held by him for more than two days.

Senju Hashirama stepped forward and frowned as he looked at the human-shaped white cocoon in front of him.

"What on earth is going on?" Uchiha Madara asked impatiently.

Senju Hashirama reached out and knocked on the white shell surrounding Kurosaki Ichigo, making a crisp sound: "I'm not very sure either."

As he said that, he turned to look at Uchiha Madara: "What's going on with this shell?"

Uchiha Madara shook his head: "I'm not very sure. I was busy on the road and didn't have time to pay attention. When I found out, Ichigo's whole body was already wrapped in these things."

After hearing this, Senju Hashirama put his palms together in front of his chest: "Forget it, let me confirm it myself."

As he spoke, powerful chakra fluctuations emitted from his body.

I saw that as the wood release ninjutsu was performed, the emerald green color like moss slowly climbed up the white cocoon wrapped in Kurosaki Ichigo, and gradually extended inside.

Senju Hashirama closed his eyes and felt something, and then opened his eyes after a long time.

"How?" Uchiha Madara noticed his actions immediately.

Senju Hashirama shook his head: "This shell has extremely strong repulsive power, and I cannot sense Ichigo's specific situation. But at least I know that this shell is of no use, and Ichigo should not be in any danger after knocking it off. "

"Then let's do it quickly." Uchiha Madara didn't hesitate and got ready.

Senju Tobirama wanted to stop his reckless action, but found that his brother shook his head imperceptibly at him, so he stopped.

Click,

Madara Uchiha touched the white cocoon with one hand, but he didn't see any movement. Just when he spit out chakra, there was a crisp sound on the shell, and obvious cracks appeared.

And this crack is extending rapidly, and soon the entire cocoon is covered.

Then there was only a crash, and the white cocoon shattered like an eggshell, revealing the figure of Kurosaki Ichigo inside.

At this moment, his body was covered with blue tree branches. As the white cocoon burst, a faint light surged on those tree branches, as if he was breathing.

In an instant, the three Senju Hashirama frowned, because in their chakra perception, the surrounding natural energy suddenly became richer, and poured into Kurosaki Ichigo's body like a dragon sucking.

And with the entry of natural energy, the branch patterns that originally only emitted a faint light suddenly became brighter, almost as bright as the sun.

The three of them all turned away their eyes under this fierce light, and then Uchiha Madara explained: "This was what he was like before the abnormality appeared. Natural energy poured into his body crazily, but the reaction was not so violent."

Senju Hashirama nodded, and then took a deep breath: "There must be something wrong with absorbing so much natural energy. I will suck out the excess natural energy for him."

As he spoke, he touched Ichigo Kurosaki's forehead with one hand, and a strong suction force came from his palm.

It is extremely dangerous to inhale natural energy into the body without authorization. If you are not careful, it will cause serious consequences.

However, Senju Hashirama is the strongest person in the ninja world, and there is no doubt about his strength as he can instantly enter the sage mode, so it is easy to absorb natural energy.

In an instant, black lines appeared on his face, and he entered immortal mode, absorbing a large amount of natural energy.

After having such a competitor, the natural energy absorbed by Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly decreased, and the light that was originally as bright as the sun gradually dimmed.

At the same time, the blue tree branches that spread all over his body slowly retracted.

"Did it work?" Uchiha Madara asked tentatively.

In his perception, the power fluctuations in Kurosaki Ichigo's body had calmed down a lot, but he still did not dare to make a decision, so he looked at Senju Hashirama.

Senju Hashirama's expression was also solemn: "The natural energy ratio has been temporarily reduced, but Ichigo's body is still merging power independently. I want to forcefully adjust the power ratio in his body to the correct level."

His intention was very obvious, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to successfully cultivate Kurosaki Ichigo into Sage Mode.

As he spoke, Senju Hashirama put his other hand on his forehead, and pure senjutsu chakra poured into his body.

After sensing this senjutsu chakra, the intricate forces in Kurosaki Ichigo's body suddenly stabilized and merged quickly according to Senju Hashirama's deployment.

"uh"

Kurosaki Ichigo, who was in a coma, suddenly snorted, but not out of pain, but with a bit of comfort.

Hearing his voice, Uchiha Madara's pupils shrank suddenly and he stared at him nervously.

Soon, all the branch lines on Kurosaki Ichigo's body faded away, and a black line appeared on the left side of his face extending from his forehead to his chin.

"We're almost successful," Senju Tobirama said to himself.

However, Uchiha Madara frowned: "No, something is not right."

He remembered that in the Kingdom of Wind, before the power riot in his body, Kurosaki Ichigo's face had also changed like this, but the black lines at that time were two, one on each side of his cheeks.

Just as Senju Tobirama was about to ask something, he heard Kurosaki Ichigo cry out in pain: "Ah"

"how"

The three Senju Hashirama were all shocked, and then looked at Kurosaki Ichigo in shock.

Under the gaze of the three people, the left side of Kurosaki Ichigo's forehead gradually bulged.

Then the bulge became more and more obvious, until finally the skin there was punctured.

Immediately, a horn pierced through the leak in the skin and grew to more than ten centimeters in just a few seconds.

"Who the hell is he"

This thought flashed through the minds of the three of them.
