Chapter 1084: Body of All Creation!
"Anything else?"
Madara Uchiha regained his composure.
He felt that the Rinnegan had a whole bunch of abilities.
Hashirama Senju's new state should also have quite a few.
"Look at this."
Hashirama Senju gestured with his gaze, and Madara Uchiha looked at the former's raised right hand.
Starting from his fingers, then his palm, and arm... his originally snow-white skin rapidly turned the color of wood, even growing emerald branches and leaves.
"Isn't this just..."
Madara Uchiha was startled, just about to say, isn't this just normal Wood Release?
But he immediately noticed the key point.
As someone who also possessed Wood Release, he understood clearly that Wood Release couldn't turn the body into trees; at most, trees would grow from the body.
Of course, Wood Clone was an exception, as its main body was wood.
But now Hashirama Senju seemed to be able to control a certain part of his body to undergo tree transformation?
"Yes, this is an ability similar to Admiral Aramaki's, Element Transformation. I can now turn my body into trees and split and reorganize them at will. I can also merge into the earth and vegetation, like this."
As soon as his voice fell, a thick large tree, looking as if it had weathered a thousand years, broke through the soil beside Hashirama Senju. Then his white body slowly merged into the tree trunk.
If Im were here, they would likely immediately think of Zetsu's Mayfly Technique.
Madara Uchiha frowned at this moment.
Because he could no longer sense Hashirama Senju's aura.
Not just chakra-related aura.
Even Observation Haki, which could sense life aura, was the same.
This reminded him of the Second Tsuchikage Mu of Stone Village back then, and his Dustless Bewildering Cover.
"Madara, hit me with Armament Haki!"
Suddenly, a pair of anthropomorphic eyes and a mouth appeared on the surface of the tree, speaking to Madara Uchiha in a deep voice.
"Alright."
Madara Uchiha immediately swung his fist, striking the surface of the bark.
With a heavy muffled roar.
Hashirama Senju, who was integrated with the tree, immediately exclaimed:
"It seems that even if it's not the Element Transformation of a Logia Devil Fruit user, Armament Haki can still attack my main body. I suppose the Hozuki Clan's Water Transformation Technique is also unavoidable. It truly is an incredibly miraculous power!"
Immediately, Hashirama Senju detached himself from the tree trunk and stood before Madara Uchiha once more.
This time, without the latter needing to ask further, Hashirama Senju continued to explain.
"Finally, there's the enhancement of natural energy."
He shook his waist-length silver-white hair and walked towards the area that was still desert, facing the dry hot wind.
"Madara, you should know that Wood Release has the ability to suppress Tailed Beast Chakra. This is because the trees created by Wood Release can absorb the Tailed Beast's chakra, but I couldn't absorb this overly violent chakra into my body for use, so I could only guide it into the earth each time."
Hearing this, Madara Uchiha smiled somewhat smugly: "That's because you don't have the Rinnegan. Otherwise, you could use the Preta Path's ability to convert Tailed Beast Chakra into chakra suitable for yourself!"
Hashirama Senju nodded in agreement: "That's right, the previous me didn't have the ability to convert energy."
"So you can now?" Madara Uchiha raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, I can. In my current state, I should be able to absorb any energy into my body and immediately convert it into my own energy, including the natural energy in the air."
Hashirama Senju spread his arms, facing the scorching hot sunlight overhead, his face filled with a brilliant smile.
At the same time, golden light began to condense out of thin air around him.
"I can feel that after this natural energy enters my body, it doesn't balance with chakra in a specific ratio like before to form the so-called Sage Mode Chakra; instead, they truly combine together."
Speaking of this, Hashirama Senju paused, then continued to speak with a smile.
And Madara Uchiha, still standing on the land, listened attentively.
"This power can no longer be described as chakra. It is a pure energy that is suitable for me, but it can still realize all the abilities I currently possess and enhance their power just like Sage Mode Chakra!"
"In other words, your body has gained an ability similar to the Preta Path, and because you've learned Sage Mode, you can sense the natural energy in the air, so you can absorb this natural energy at any time for your own use?"
Madara Uchiha asked thoughtfully.
"No, my current body can inherently sense the natural energy in the air, and it's even easier than in Sage Mode. I can even mobilize the surrounding natural energy to manifest it!"
Hashirama Senju's gaze sharpened, and he clasped his palms together in front of him.
【Buzz————】
The next moment, Madara Uchiha saw a great golden light erupt around him.
In the blink of an eye, a Thousand-Handed Kannon statue, resplendent with golden light, formed!
It was somewhat similar to the Summit Transformation Buddha of Wood Release.
But it wasn't as massive, measuring only about ten meters high by estimation.
For some reason, Madara Uchiha thought of his own Susanoo.
"Interesting, too interesting. Then I'd like to see how much stronger your strength has become..."
Madara Uchiha couldn't suppress the fighting intent in his heart.
Azure chakra surged like flame, condensing the second form of Susanoo around his body.
"What do you plan to call this state of yours?"
"Hmm..."
Hashirama Senju pondered for a moment and made a decision in his heart.
"I'll call it the 'Forest Body', meaning the 'Body of All Creation'!"
"If your Rinnegan is the eye that controls life and death, then my Forest Body is the body that controls nature..."
As his voice fell, the yellow sand beneath Hashirama Senju's feet visibly transformed into moist, fertile black soil at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Tender herbaceous plants grew in the black soil and spread out in patches towards the desert behind him.
This scene left the three alchemists in the distance dumbfounded.
Alchemy?
Hashirama Senju certainly didn't know alchemy.
But his current state, having mastered seven chakra nature transformations, made transforming yellow sand into soil no longer a difficulty.
Coupled with the 'Forest Body' acting as an energy converter.
It continuously converted the raw natural energy in the air into the most gentle life energy, causing the earth to rejuvenate and burst with life.
Although the principle was different, although the power was different.
But the current Hashirama Senju had the qualification to compete with Aramaki, a Logia Devil Fruit user of the Woods-Woods Fruit, for the epithet of 'I am Nature, King of Nature'.
However.
Right now, what he wanted most was to have a great battle with Madara Uchiha and fully experience the brand new power he had obtained.
"Madara!!"
Within the golden Kannon, Hashirama Senju roared with angry eyes.
"Hashirama!!"
Within the Susanoo, Madara Uchiha also roared in response.
"Madara!!"
"Hashirama!!"
The next moment, the golden Kannon unleashed golden light palm imprints one after another.
【Boom boom boom】
Each of its palms stirred up violent sound bursts and rolling air currents.
However, Madara Uchiha's Susanoo showed no weakness.
Four azure hands condensed four azure energy longswords, brandishing dense blade light and sword shadow, colliding with the incoming sky-filling golden light palm imprints.
Every moment, a large number of palm imprints and blade light crisscrossed, exploded, and shattered, turning into specks of light that dissipated in the gale force.
Although this first round, like an appetizer, was evenly matched.
But Madara Uchiha seemed to have forgotten.
On his side, let alone Sage Mode, he hadn't even learned Monster Strength yet...
The current Hashirama Senju has completely solved his stamina problem, and his combat power has been further strengthened. He is by no means weak even within the entire Admiral level.
However, everyone should be able to see that I haven't set the Forest Body too strong. It basically aligns with the Rinnegan's abilities. The main abilities are concentrated on body enhancement and Wood Release enhancement. I am very grateful to the readers who provided opinions and ideas before, otherwise, I might have directly given Hashirama a Rinnegan. Compared to that, I still prefer the current Forest Body. It feels more in line with Hashirama Senju's characteristic.
