Chapter 561: Next Steps in the Strategy
With the war finally over, news of Madara Uchiha's resurrection spread rapidly across the entire Ninja World.
The Eye of the Moon Plan sent waves of panic through everyone. After all, no one wanted to experience a few days of blissful dreams only to become nourishment for the God Tree. The cost of such a dream was far too high.
When people learned that Konoha's elite had fought Madara and that the Fourth Hokage had died in battle, their hearts sank.
To them, Tsunade was a figure of great influence, someone who had played a crucial role in unifying the Ninja World. If someone of her caliber—an exceptional warrior—had fallen at Madara's hands, just how powerful was he?
And with even Kawakaze, the Second God of Shinobi, unable to claim victory, some had already lost hope.
A heavy gloom settled over the entire Ninja World. Even the once-thriving development plans for the region came to a standstill. No one had the heart to focus on grand visions for the future anymore. All eyes were on Konoha.
But none of this mattered to Kawakaze now.
Standing at the front door, he held Tsunade's hand, staring at the entrance, yet unable to take a step inside.
He had no idea how to face the children.
Their mother had left home alive, yet now she had returned in this state.
She was still here—still by his side—but that didn't change the reality. Tsunade was dead.
