Chapter 423: The Fate of a Pebble!
Shamon stood beside Tobirama with mixed emotions. He didn't join the encirclement of the Kirigakure ninja; a group of powerless and unconscious Kirigakure ninja weren't worth his time. Although Tobirama was severely injured and blind, in Shamon's eyes, he was far more dangerous than those Kirigakure ninja! Facing this man, even the slightest carelessness could be fatal.
Unfortunately, Shamon's hopes were quickly shattered by reality. Not even half a minute later, in the distance, behind the battlefield, thousands of meters away from him, an intense battle broke out in an area Shamon couldn't see with his own eyes.
"What's going on?" Shamon thought.
At this moment, the number of Kirigakure ninja who were still conscious and capable of fighting was at most a few dozen. The thousands of elite Sunagakure troops encircling them from behind should have easily crushed them. How could such a fierce battle be happening there? Were there still some tough Kirigakure ninja holding out?
"What's happening over there?" Shamon asked.
"Kazekage-sama, the right flank seems to have encountered an extremely powerful enemy!" reported a retreating Sunagakure ninja.
"What enemy?"
"That person... seems to be... Uchiha Madara..."
"What?! Uchiha Madara? Didn't he die years ago? Are you all blind?"
"This..."
Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama had long been dead, a fact known to the entire ninja world. If either of them were still alive, the First Great Ninja War wouldn't have happened.
