Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

A/N:- Inkstone was broken for me yesterday, both website and app. Website is working fine after deleting the cache but the inkstone button on app is still missing. Does anyone has a solution?

--------------

Several figures walk out of the thick mist.

"They are…"

The eyes of Tsunade, Mei, and the rest of the commanders narrow as they recognize the new adversaries.

"D-Dan…"

Tsunade's lips tremble at the sight of a man with long, pale blue hair and dark green eyes.

"Is that you, Dan?"

Tsunade mumbles, and a drop of tear leaks from her eyes.

Fugaku, Hiashi, and the other commanders also clutch their fists as they recognize their clan members within the group.

"Elders!"

Both Fugaku and Hiashi stare at the several old figures with white hair.

Some bitter memories flash across both Fugaku and Hiashi's minds.

The shinobis in front of Fugaku are among the few of the rebel faction group. Previously, they were slaughtered by the surprise attack of Akatsuki and Danzo before they could make their move. And now, Kabuto has resurrected them to wage war.

Similarly to Hiashi, he recognizes the few elders as the members of the conservation faction in his clan.

Another squad with Konoha and Kiri's headbands walks out of the fog.

"They are… they are a part of the Hokage and Mizukage protection squad."

A few old veteran shinobis recognize the group of new Edo soldiers.

Asuma's expression turns ugly as he recognizes a group of shinobis.

"The Twelve Guardian Ninjas!"

Asuma stares at the central figure within the ranks of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas.

"Nakamura-san!"

The shinobi in the center have an orange-red iris. Two-tear-like red marking flows down from the bottom of his eyes over his cheeks. The man has the appearance of a lean adult in his late twenties with a build of over 190 cm. His crimson hairs shine under the occasional glow of the moonlight.

Hmm…

The central figure, as if sensing a gaze, turns in Asuma's direction and is slightly stunned for a few seconds at Ausma's appearance.

"Ajuka, is that you?"

The shinobis with crimson hairs open his mouth.

"No, I am not him." Asuma shakes his head.

"I am his younger brother, Asuma." Asuma shakes his head.

"No wonder!"

The crimson hair shinobis nod his head and glance towards the line-up of the Allied Shinobi forces.

'So, that's the legendary Flame God of Konoha, Nakamura Kazuya.' Asuma murmurs as he recalls the legend of the shinobi in front of him.

Nakamura Kazuya was a legendary hero of Konoha who made a name for himself after the end of the First Shinobi War. He actively fought in the Second Shinobi War and won several victories for Konoha. He was once a part of the Twelve Guardian Shinobis and later returned to Konoha to teach my brother under Father's instructions.

He lost his life while protecting his students against the ambush of a platoon of the Kumogakure. His death cast a shadow on my brother, who later joined the anbu to overcome the grief.

"My body isn't under my control!"

The flame god Kazuya raises his hands and makes a series of hand signs.

"Fire Release: Great Flame Destruction Wave,"

Kazuya takes a deep breath and infuses a large amount of fire chakra into his mouth. He expels a large stream of flames from their mouth that progressively widens with range. The high-temperature flames rapidly evaporate a large quantity of seawater and expand the Mist field.

Several water-style users combine forces from the allied shinobi side to douse the flames of the large-scale jutsu.

The rest of the twelve Guardian Shinobis follow the cue and flicker amongst the allied Shinobis force to cause chaos.

Akira, Yagami, Asuma, and several other shinobis from Kiri confront them.

On the other side of the battlefield,

"Tsunade!"

Dan turns towards Tsunade.

"Dan…"

Tsunade grits her teeth and enters into a stupor as the trauma from the past resurfaces. Dan slowly raises his hands against his will and makes a series of hand signs.

Swish… swish…

"Secret Technique: Spirit Transformation jutsu,"

Dan's spirit leaves his body and quickly flies towards the group of captains and vice-captain.

Dan possesses the body of a captain. The eyes of the captain turn white upon successful possession.

Slash… Slash…

The possessed captain swings his blade and slices the neck of his subordinates.

Whoosh…

Dan's spirit leaves the body of the captain and possesses another shinobi.

The other Edo shinobis also wreak havoc on the battlefield.

Fugaku and Hiashi also confront their respective elders in battle.

"Tsunade-san, snap out of it!"

Mei's loud voice wakes Tsunade out of her stupor. Mei shakes Tsunade's body to wake her up.

"Tsunade-san, what's going on? What kind of secret technique is this?" She points towards the flying spirit of Dan.

"That's the Spirit Transformation Jutsu! It's a powerful, forbidden jutsu that allows the user to leave their body as a spirit and possess another person. The user of this technique can suppress and collapse the victim's spirit, killing them in the process. He can then freely manipulate the body of the victim and use all the abilities of their victim, including their Kekkei Genkai.

Also, when the user is in spirit form, ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu are ineffective against him. Only the Fuinjutsu technique can restrain the spirit form. Also, the body of the user will be vulnerable to a sneak attack when the spirit is out of the body. Though such weakness no longer exists for an Edo body." Tsunade reveals the nature of the abilities of her former lover.

She closes her eyes as some painful memories of her past resurface. Dan's dying moments flash past her eyes. She clenches her fists and turns towards the spirit form of Dan.

"I will stop him!"

Tsunade takes a step forwards and flickers toward Dan's figure. She takes out a Fuinjutsu scroll from her storage. She makes a series of hand signs and tosses them toward the battlefield.

"Four Violet Flames Formation,"

A purple flame barrier isolates Tsunade and Dan's spirit from the rest of the shinobis.

"Tsunade…"

Dan's spirit pauses and turns to Tsunade.

"Dan…"

Tsunade extends her fingers toward Dan's spirit. Dan's spirit glows and possesses Tsunade's spirit. Both Tsunade and Dan appear inside Tsunade's mindscape.

Several sealing formations appear in Tsunade's mind and restrict Dan's spirit while freeing him from Kabuto's influence.

"That was a wonderful plan!" A smile appears on Dan's face as he glances at Tsunade's image.

"It wasn't me. It was my most brilliant student!" A prideful smile appears on Tsunade's face.

------------------------------

At some distance away from the new first division,

Swoosh… BAM…

A bandaged hand erupts out of the ground.

Rumble… rumble…

The surrounding sand, debris, and rocks tremble as the bandaged figure of Mū crawls out of the ground.

"That Onoki… I didn't expect him to possess such a trump card. To think, he will forego his stubbornness and learn enemy jutsu."

Mū cracks his neck and glances in the direction of the allied shinobi force.

"The preparations are complete, heh!"

Kabuto's lips curl into a smile.

Swish… swish…

He makes a series of hand signs and Mūperfectly imitates them.

"These hand signs…" Mūrecognizes the involuntary hand signs his body makes.

"Summoning Jutsu,"

He slams his palm on the ground.

Poof…

With a puff of white smoke, a wood coffin erupts out of the ground.

Shoom…

A shiver runs down Mū's spine as he senses the chakra within the wooden coffin.

"This chakra…" Mū's eyes narrow as goosebumps crawl across his body. His hands tremble in fear from the sheer intensity of chakra within the wooden coffin.

BOOOM…

The wooden coffin explodes into pieces to reveal a figure wearing a high-collar black shirt with blue pants and bandages around his shins. A crimson armor with numerous metal plates, forming protective guards along his chest, waist, shoulders, and thighs, covers his clothes.

"Finally. Looks like he's managed to successfully groom that brat, Nagato."

"I didn't think I will be summoning you…"

"If I'm mistaken, you are…"

"The user of this Edo-Tensei jutsu has a keen understanding of war. To think of using you…"

"Did you say Edo-Tensei? This is not the Rinne Rebirth Jutsu…?"

The new Edo figure glances at his hands.

"Hehe… this new body of yours is way better than your body in its prime." Kabuto's voice rings in the unknown figure's head.

"Way better than my original body, you say…"

Shiing…

A pulse of chakra flashes past Kabuto's mind as he senses a pair of eyes locked onto him.

Gulp…

Kabuto gulps his saliva in fear.

'There is no way he can figure out my location with just that.'

"So, that's where you are hiding?"

However, the next words of the figure send a shiver down Kabuto's spine.

"How did you…"
