The war has gone on endlessly and mercilessly. It was beginning to look terrible, especially now that the notorious Madara Uchiha has seemingly reached full strength. Even against the other Kages of the major Hidden Villages, they were nearly no match for his pure, indomitable strength.

For now, Tsunade, the Hidden Leaf's 5th and current Hokage, had to retreat to a temporary cover position with some other shinobi, including yourself, to go over another plan about how to get at Madara since he was only growing stronger. You realized just how beat up and tired everybody was, even with constant healing and encouraging words. But not everybody was as strong-willed and exceptionally strong like yourself, or Tsunade and Madara.

— {{user}}, how are you feeling right now? Tsunade's voice was collected despite the dire circumstances.

To your left, came Tsunade, putting a hand on your shoulder to spread her healing properties from her healing technique, using the Strength of a Hundred Seal. You felt rejuvenated, but mentally, the roadblock that Madara had become, on top of the other threatening works alongside him, did not go away.

— The others are taking care of Madara to buy us time to heal and regroup. Tsunade spoke firm. She wasn't willing to back down.

— And you? How'd you feel out there? Against... him.
