Tobirama Senju reflected on his own death and realized…
It did bear so resemblance to the death of the Third Raikage.
Kakashi Hatake also thought about how he died,
and it did seem kind of similar.
The footage continued.
[During the Fourth Great Ninja War, the Third Raikage was revived by Kabuto Yakushi using Edo Tensei.]
[He retained his mories and awareness, but was under control.
He was forced to fight alongside the other resurrected Kage.]
[They encountered the Fourth Division led by Gaara, and were ambushed by a squad under Temari.]
Konoha – Chūnin Exam Arena.
Temari, alive and watching, was utterly confused at first…
Then suddenly thrilled.
She had finally appeared in the future footage!
Any longer without a ntion,
and she might have assud she had already died for the village!
Wait—no!
Not "for the village."
Because nowadays, dying for the village wasn't considered noble—it had beco a punchline.
The footage resud.
[Because the Third Raikage retained his awareness, he told the Allied Shinobi Forces his own weakness—
urging them to attack using Wind Release.]
[Temari loudly laid out a plan of attack, leading a squad in launching a wind barrage.]
[In both manga and ani, the Third Raikage directly tanked these attacks with his bare body.]
[Though injured, none of the wounds were fatal.
Temari's wind techniques were powerful, especially with backup—
but not enough to truly damage him.]
[Even without Edo Tensei's regeneration, if he had activated Lightning Chakra Mode,
he could have easily shrugged off those hits.]
[The "Shinobi Battle Book" states that the Third Raikage's body is as hard as iron—
and that wasn't an exaggeration.]
At this point, the chat group burst out laughing.
[Temari]: Ahem! I finally made it into the future footage…
But did I really just show up to be comic relief?
[Kankuro]: Don't beat yourself up! You were a squad leader in the Allied Forces!
[Temari]: Yeah, but my performance was pathetic…
[Kankuro]: That's only because your opponent was the Third Raikage—
the guy who fought the real Eight-Tails in hand-to-hand combat!
[Temari]: Still… Compared to Gaara, my future self looks so weak.
I have to start training harder.
I absolutely refuse to let my future self look that pathetic!
[Kankuro]: Then I'll train with you!
[Hashirama Senju @everyone]: Wait, hold on—
The footage ntioned "manga" and "ani"?
What does that an? Are these from comic books?
[Tobirama Senju]: That's impossible.
These must be future biographies made in our honor.
[Uchiha Izuna]: Yeah, I agree.
Tobirama, for once you're actually using your head.
[Tobirama]: Tch! Was that a complint?
Why does it feel more like an insult?
The footage continued.
[Faced with such an indestructible man, Temari whispered to herself:
"My Wind Release has so serious cutting power—
arguably the strongest in the entire Allied Force!
And even with backup, we still couldn't slice through the Third Raikage's lightning armor...
What are we supposed to do now?"]
[Right then—Naruto's shadow clone arrived from above,
hand-forming a Rasenshuriken.]
[And gave the Raikage's lightning armor a rude awakening.]
[That's when they realized—
the Third Raikage was no longer under Kabuto's control.]
[Luckily, Naruto's Rasenshuriken landed cleanly.]
[The explosion caused the Raikage to collapse for two seconds—his body cracked in multiple places.]
[Group Chat]
[Temari]: I want to die.
My future self is so embarrassing!
[Kankuro]: Okay, yeah, it's a bit rough…
But rember—your opponent was the Third Raikage.
[Temari]: I'm not upset about that!
I'm upset that I was just bragging about having the best Wind Release in the Allied Forces—
then Naruto shows up and just casually one-shots the guy!
[Kankuro]: Fair point…
[Kushina Uzumaki]: Hahaha! That's my son!
Even a shadow clone is OP!
[Minato Namikaze]: Naruto's Wind Release cutting power really might be the strongest in the Allied Forces.
[Hashirama Senju]: He's truly the hope of Konoha. Well done!
[Tobirama Senju]: Keep it up, Naruto.
You're Konoha's future—you need to grow even stronger!
[Hinata Hyuga]: Naruto-kun, you're amazing…
I don't think I'll ever be able to catch up to you…
[Kushina]: Daughter-in-law! What are you saying?!
You've already caught up to Naruto!
And even if you hadn't, I'd just make him chase you!
You're my daughter-in-law no matter what!
[Minato]: If there's an opportunity, I'll teach you Flying Thunder God.
Then you'll definitely catch up to him.
[Madara Uchiha]: Not bad, Hashirama.
Your judgnt's pretty good this ti.
[Naruto Uzumaki]: Haha… that's all future , really!
The right now still has a long way to go. 😅
The footage continued.
[In just monts, Edo Tensei regenerated the Third Raikage's injuries.]
[He got back up, completely unfazed, and prepared to use his most powerful technique—
the "Hell Stab" known as the "Strongest Spear."]
[Specifically, his most concentrated version—using four fingers.]
[He pierced straight through the Allied Forces' Earth-style wall and even took out a bunch of soldiers.]
[Thankfully, under Dodai's guidance, Naruto escaped to higher ground and spotted a scar on the Raikage's chest.]
[Nara Shikamaru @Hashirama]: Lord First!
I don't know why, but I have a feeling…
You're about to get an answer to that spear-vs-shield question.
[Madara]: I agree! Just keep watching, Hashirama—
You're about to find out whether the Raikage's spear or shield is stronger.
[Hashirama]: ???
What are you two seeing that I'm not?!
[Tobirama]: Nii-san, Shikamaru might actually be onto sothing.
But Madara's probably just pretending to know.
[Madara]: Hmph. I was going to let you find out on your own, but fine—
I'll say it: That scar on the Raikage's chest?
He gave it to himself—with his own strongest spear.
[Hashirama]: Oh!
So… that ans the spear is stronger than the shield?
[Tobirama]: Tch!
You really needed to wait this long to figure that out?
[Izuna]: Tobirama, you're such a backseat genius!
[Tobirama]: I'm no backseat genius!
Don't forget—Naruto already cracked through the Raikage's defense with Wind Release.
If his shield were truly the strongest, that wouldn't have happened.
So obviously, his spear is stronger!
[Izuna]: Yikes!
Why didn't I think of that earlier?!
[Immature Tsunade Fan]: So the so-called "Strongest Shield" was just an exaggeration, huh?
[Pretending-to-be-Young Old Lady]: Duh.
That was obvious from the start.
[Immature Tsunade Fan]: Then why didn't you say it earlier, old hag?
[Pretending-to-be-Young Old Lady]: So things are so basic they don't need saying.
Not everyone's as dense as you.
The footage continued.
[Dodai contacted the Eight-Tails and devised a plan.]
[Naruto entered Sage Mode and prepared a Rasengan to go head-to-head with the Raikage's spear.]
[The Raikage, under Kabuto's control, unleashed his strongest single-fingered Hell Stab—
aiming to end Naruto in one blow.]
[His aura blazed, his killing intent surged—it was unstoppable.]
[But Naruto used a curved Rasengan to redirect the Raikage's hand—
causing him to stab himself with his own strongest technique.]
[The iron-hard body was pierced.
The sealing team moved in imdiately and successfully sealed the Third Raikage.]
[His story then followed the sa ending as the other Edo Kage.]
[Chat Group]
[Madara @Tobirama]: See? Told you I was right.
[Tobirama]: Fine. You were right this ti.
[Hashirama]: As expected of Madara! Well done!
[Kushina]: Excuse —shouldn't we be praising Naruto?
[Minato]: Naruto did exceptionally well.
[Sasuke Uchiha]: Hmph.
If I had been there, I could've pierced him too.
[Fugaku Uchiha]: Sasuke, you're amazing.
You are the Seventh Hokage, after all.
And look—Naruto did all that and still didn't beco Hokage.
That just proves you're the better one.
[Mikoto Uchiha]: Sasuke, your father is right.
You'll always be the pride of our family.
