Reanimation Jutsu! (Part 2)

"Wood clone jutsu!" 10 clones spread from Ryuu's body.

"Get them." They nodded.

Ryuu's clones spread around the forest, and Ryuu teleported beside Kakashi and Shisui.

Kakashi was fighting Tobirama while Shisui fought Kagami.

Hashirama frowned upon seeing Ryuu.

"I should've felt your presence before. You're using some sort of seal, aren't you? If you can use Tobirama's Flying Raijin-"

"Listen to me, Danzo lied to you! I'm not a traitor, I'm a leaf shinobi." He points at his forehead protector.

Hashirama attacked Ryuu.

Ryuu activated the eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and used his death blade.

"The Mangekyou?" Dark green pigmentation formed around Hashirama's eyes.

"No one will endanger the village and get away with it!"

"Lightning style: emotion wave!"

A mixture of water and lightning travels toward Ryuu.

A giant hand made of burning chakra blocks the lightning.

"I'm sorry Ryuu, I can't control myself." Hanzo apologizes as he attacks Ryuu with his death blade,

Ryuu dodges both their attacks using sage mode and his Sharingan, he's careful not to get hit by even one of Hashirama's hits,

"Hanzo, why do you believe he can be trusted? Unless you've changed through these years, I expect an honest answer from you,"

Hanzo glances at Hashirama,

"Lord, first, Ryuu has been raised by Sakumo Hatake.

It's all coming back to me now.

Sakumo and I would gladly lay down our lives for the village, I know him, he won't betray this village ever.

Besides, I didn't want to say this earlier because, to be honest, it wouldn't be a crime to doubt me after I said it."

Tobirama looks at Hanzo curiously,

"What? We don't have time to hold back any information." Hanzo nods,

"Well, you see…

Besides being a loyal and great shinobi, Ryuu is my son. The son of the Uzumaki and Uchiha clan…

A hybrid."

"What?" Hashirama widened his eyes.

For a second, Hashirama's attacks stopped. But this one second was all Ryuu needed,

Ryuu formed a hand seal.

"Now!"

All Ryuu's clones formed the same hand sign.

Whoosh!

A storm of black Ash swarmed around them and drew everyone in.

In the blink of an eye, they were all inside Ryuu's dark dimension.

"What was that?" Hashirama asked as he looked around,

"If we all fought there, the barrier I made would shatter, and we'd endanger the villagers. I couldn't risk that."

From the corner of his eye, Tobirama glared at Ryuu with resentful eyes.

'Space-time ninjutsu of that level in the hands of an Uchiha…

Not only that, he seems to be young, even elder brother would have trouble facing him. And if he truly means what he said about harming the village, that means he's been holding back this whole time.'

Tobirama looks at Hashirama.

"Elder brother, be careful with this one, I have a feeling this fight has only begun."

Hashirama seemed shocked by Tobirama's warning but he nodded.

"Right."

The distorted version of Konoha that surrounds them immediately struck them.

The buildings are dark and twisted, their once bright colors faded to a sickly gray. The streets are empty and silent, except for the faint sound of footsteps that seem to echo endlessly.

As they walk deeper into the dimension, they notice the dark figures that seem to populate the city. They resemble the citizens of Konoha, but their features are twisted. Their eyes are empty and lifeless, and their movements are slow and jerky.

Hashirama and Tobirama can sense the power emanating from Ryuu, and they know they are not in a place of their choosing.

"This is a replica of Konoha, the village has grown since your time. Specifically, after the 5th Hokage was selected.

We've lived with Kirigakure's villagers like we were of the same land, you know."

"5th? What happened to Hiruzen?" Tobirama asks,

"Sarutobi-sensei retired years ago, and then Minato the fourth Hokage died battling the nine tails a few years back.

My father, Sakumo Hatake, was selected as the 5th Hokage, and someday…

Someday I'll be there with them.

I'll become Hokage and watch over my home!"

Suddenly, Ryuu controlled the ash beneath Tobirama's feet and pulled him down.

"Tobirama!" Hashirama ran towards Tobirama.

"Nope."

"Woah!"

Ryuu pulled Hashirama too.

"You Brat!" Kagami threw shurikens toward Ryuu.

Cling!

Hanzo blocked all the shurikens toward Ryuu.

'I csn't fully control my movements, but whatever little I can do, I'll protect my son!'

Hanzo grits his teeth, it was difficult moving on his own.

"Sensei, calm down."

"Sensei?!" Ryuu and Shisui wonder.

"Kagami-sensei, he's my son, anyone who harms him will-" Hanzo felt a jolt of pain making him attack Ryuu once again.

"Sorry!" Hanzo swung his blade towards Ryuu, but Ryuu controlled ash to take him underground too.

"Hanzo!" In the blink of an eye, Kagami appeared behind Ryuu and swung his tanto toward him.

Ryuu's body turns to wood as it's struck.

"Wood clone?"

Before he could react, he was also pulled underneath.

"Look out!" Shisui throws a kunai toward Ryuu,

Ryuu watched the kunai flying by his head.

He looks beside him and sees a strange red paper bomb about to collide with Shisui's kunai…

Poof!

The bomb explodes and lets out a white gas.

"Orb of the storm jutsu!"

Boom!

Ryuu was sent flying back after an orb of wind hit him.

He caught himself with an arm made of ash.

"Mom…" Ryuu held his stomach.

"Huagh!" Ryuu threw up some blood and then wiped it off.

Ryuu controlled ash and pulled his mother into the underground.

"Shisui, go to the Uchiha training grounds. Remember to seal him or as a last resort use Kotoamatsukami to break the jutsu,

"Yes, sensei!"

Whoosh!

Shisui's pulled into the ground,

"Kakashi, the third training ground."

Kakashi nods.

"What about you?"

Ryuu looks back and holds his fist out,

"Don't worry about me, I'll be too far from you." Kakashi taps Ryuu's fist and feels a surge of chakra flowing into him,

"Nobu, shed some light for them."

"Got it."

Ryuu teleports away.

One of his clones steps forward.

Red flames detach from his body and those flames, Nobu, emerges,

The clone falls and sinks to the ground,

Nobu's avatar builds itself into a giant Phoenix. He opens his mouth and a giant ball begins forming a red orb of fire,

It expands rapidly, making itself larger than entire buildings,

'This should be enough.'

Boom!!!

Nobu shoots it to the sky,

As the gigantic orb soars through the sky, it detonates,

Boom!

The entire dimension is bathed in a warm, golden light. The darkness and ash that once covered the landscape dispel, revealing a stunning vista of rolling hills, forests, and rivers.

The sky is painted in hues of orange and pink as if it were perpetually at the edge of a sunrise or sunset.

While this happens, Ryuu's clones all sink into the ground while the original teleports away.
