Twilight, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Spike and AppleJack goes outside the Chariot while Rainbow Dash, and FLuttershy lands on the ground. Hashirama looks around.

Hashirama jumps and lands on the ground perfectly.

"I see. But who is the guy over there?" right royal guard said pointing at Hashirama

"My name is Hashirama Senju. I came to see the Goddess of the Sun" Hashirama said

"He is with us" Twilight added

"I see. Do come in!" left royal guard said

The castle doors open. Inside of the Castle are some statues, decorations, luxury furnitures and other stuff. They enter the castle. They goes straight, climb the stairs and goes straight again towards a big door guarded by two royal guards again. They again was stop by the guards.

"Ahh princess Twilight Sparkle. Princess Celestia and Luna awaits" left royal guard said

The doors open revealing column of guards and at the end are two ponies that has both wings and a horn like Twilight sitting on a throne. They enters the room and walks straight. They stop a few meters away from the two princesses.

"Ahh... Elements of Harmony. Thank goodness your-" the white pony was cut off when the pony Hashirama

"Excuse me, but who are you?" the white pony said

"My name is Hashirama Senju your highness. I have heard that you have a problem. I come with them to selve this problem" Hashirama said

"I see..." Celestia said

"Allow me to introduce ourselves. My name is Princess Celstia" the white pony said now named Princess Celestia

Celestia is a tall white pony that has both horn and wings. She has a multi colored flowing hair, golden royal accessories, and has a sun on its butt. She is also known as the Goddess of the Sun.

"So princess, what's the problem?" Twilight asked

"Right. Me and Lulu are feeling a powerful energy. This energy surpasses both our powers. It also surpasses Discord's powers. This power is nearby and we want all of you to find it. Come back here if you have found anything ok?" Celestia said

"Wait your highness" Hashirama said

"What is it Sir How-she-r-raw-ma?" Luna asked

"I think I know who are you sensing" Hashirama said

"Really? Who?" Celestia asked

"It is non other than Madara Uchiha. Madara is my friend and is very powerful" Hashirama said

"Ma-the-ra?" Who art thou reffering too?" Luna asked

"Madara is my friend... No... My rival... He has a long and spikey hair, and wears an armor like mine. He is like me" Hashirama said

"He is like you but has a spikey hair and wears an armor like you? My guards haven't reported anything about a creature with a spikey hair and has an armor like you" Celestia said

"Oh..." Hashirama said

'So Madara is not here. Wait... If the princesses can feel that strong energy, why can't I feel it? Unless, they are reffering to my energy' Hashirama thought

Hashirama closes his eyes. Hashirama's face changes. Hashirama has red markings around and under his eyes as well as in the center of his forehead. Hashirama entered sage mode.

"What in tarnation? What happen to ya'll face partner?" Applejack asked

"I have entered sage mode. During Sage mode, I can feel everyone's energy in Canterlot" Hashirama said

"Sage mode? What is that if I may ask?" Luna asked

"Sage mode is done when you add nature anergy inside you. Senjutsu can enhance your power, your speed, even your jutsus" Hashirama said

"Spike. Take notes!" Twilight commands Spike

"Got it" Spike said

Twilight magically poof out a paper and a quill and gives it to Spike in order for him to take down notes. Once Spike recieve the quill and paper, he readies himself to take down notes.

"So during sage mode... Your power is enhance along with your speed and everything?" Celestia asked

"Yes" Hashirama said

"So wait... If I for example enter sage mode. Then that means my speed will be twice as faster?" Rainbow asked

"Yes" Hashirama said

"Sweet! How do you add Nature energy inside you?" Rainbow asked

"By concentrating the nature force around you. Mastering Sage mode is hard. It will take you like weeks, maybe years, or maybe even decades to master it" Hashirama said

"Woah" Rainbow said

"Wait a minute. So art thou saying we are feeling your powers?" Luna asked

"Yes" Hashirama said as he exits sage mode

"Prove it. I challenge thou to a duel!" Luna said

"Are you sure? I don't want to kill innocent pony" Hashirama said

"I am serious. Do thou accept thee challenge?" Luna asked

"Very well... I accept your challenge. But where shall we fight?" Hashirama asked

"In the Canterlot arena sounds good"Luna said

"Alright... I accept your challenge" Luna said

"Lulu. Are you insane? Fighting somepony who is stronger than us?" Celestia asked

"He may be lying Tia. He has to prove that he is stronger than I" Luna said

"Prepare to be teleported to the Canterlot Arena!" Luna said

Luna's horn begins to bright in a color of cobalt blue. Suddenly, they all disappear.

In the Canterlot Arena

They all reappear in the center of the Canterlot Arena. Canterlot Arena has a lot of space and is also perfect for duels. Celestia teleports the elements of Harmony to the Royal sits leaving Luna ans Hashirama alone in the center of the Arena.

"Art thou ready!?" Luna asked

"Ready" Hashirama said

Luna's horn again begins to grow cobalt blue. She points her horn to Hashirama and starts to shoot magical blasts. Hashirama claps his hands together. Large tree branches starts to appear. The tree branches starts to make a wooden wall. This made everyone's eyes widen.

"How in Equestria does he do that?!" Rarity asked

"So... Awesome!" Rainbow said

"He has a green thumb" Pinkie said

"Buh... But how?" Twilight asked

The blast hits the wooden wall making the wooden wall break into twigs. Hashirama hasn't made a move. Luna begins to sweat.

'I..I havent seen somepony control trees and force them to grow randomly on the ground' Luna said

"I think it is time to finish this fight" Hashirama said

Hashiram starts tp perform hand signs. Luna raises an eyebrow wondering what is Hashirama is doing. Luna looks around ans she finds large wooden branches starts to grow randomly.

"Mokuton Hijutsu: Jukai Kotan! (Secret Wood Style Jutsu: Deep Forest Emergence)"

Large trees starts to grow everywhere. Luna begins to fly avoiding large trees. A tree branch holds Luna's left back hoof making Luna stop flying. Tree branches starts to wrap all around Luna's Fore hooves and back hooves. Luna is now trap struggling to escape from the tree branches. Hashirama puts his arms back to the side. Again everyone's eyes widen.

"Argh... I can't escape!" Luna said

"It is over Princess Luna. I have won" Hashirama said

"No... It is not over yet!" Luna said

Luna's horn begins to bright in a cobalt blue color. Luna start to bast magical blasters randomly. After a few moments Luna is now free. Luna lands on the ground gently before staring at Hashirama.

"This is only the beginning. I haven't taken this battle seriously yet" Luna said

"Neither am I Princess" Hashirama said

"What? You're holding back?" Luna asked

"Yes" Hashirama said

Hashirama clap his hands together. Luna prepares herself for the incoming attack,

"Mokuton: Mokujin no Jutsu! (Wood style: Wood Golem Jutsu)"

A large wooden statue arises from the ground. The large statue is similar to the height of a full grown dragon. Hashirama is ontop of the statue's head. Luna's eyes widen and begins to sweat again.

"Mokuton: Mokuryu no Jutsu! (Wood style: Wood Dragon Jutsu)"

A long wooden dragon begins to slither around the large wooden statue. The wooden dragon has a long body with a trunk like nose and its eyes glows a green color similar to the wooden statue's eyes.

"Princess Luna might need some help" Applejack said

"I agree" Fluttershy said

"But we have no choice but to watch. It was very idiotic of her to challenge How-she-ra-ma into a duel" Celestia said

Luna begins to fly. While she is flying, he horn starts to glow. She blast them towards Hashirama but the wooden golem protect Hashirama from the incoming attacks. Hashirama commands the wooden dragon to capture Luna. The dragon begins to attack and tries to capture Luna evades the attack.

'I have to think of a way to win' Luna thought

The golem begins to move and tries to capture Luna but Luna avoids the hands of the golem. Suddenly, Luna was captured by the wooden dragon. Hashirama smiles and everyone gasp.

"Argh!" Luna shouted with pain

"Princess Luna!" the elements of harmony shouted

"Lulu!" Celestia shouted

Luna can feel her powers begins to drain. Luna tries to escape from the dragon's grip but it was no use. After a few moments, Luna is getting sleepy. The wooden dragon puts Luna gently on the ground.

"*huff* *huff* I... I surrender..." Luna said before going to sleep.

The wooden golem and the wooden dragon turned into smoke. Hashirama lands perfectly on the ground and approaches Luna. Suddenly, Celestia along with the Elements of Harmony trott towards them.

"Lulu. Are you ok?" Celestia asked with a worried voice

"She is fine. The Wooden Dragon absorbed Princess Luna's energy. I do not intent to hurt or kill an innocent pony" Hashirama said

"Thank goodness for that" Twilight said

Hashirama claps his hands together. Suddenly, blue aurora surrounds Hashirama. The blue aurora then goes straight to Luna. Luna is now surrounded by a blue aurora similar to Hashirama. After a few moments, Luna begins to wake up. The blue aurora begins to disappear.

"W-what happened?" Luna asked as she sits up

"We had a duel and I won. The wooden dragon absorbed you energy in order for you to go to sleep" Hashirama said

"I have to admit. Thou art very powerful Sir How-she-rah-ma" Luna said

"Your power surpasses both our powers. You also surpasses Discord's power. Your pwer is... Godlike" Celestia said

"Well... I'm used to be called the God of Shinobi" Hashirama said

"God of She-no-bee?" Pinkie asked

"Yes" Hashirama said

"Ha-she-rama. You seriously need some explaining to do" Twilight said

"Very well. Everyone take a sit. This explanation is long" Hashirama said
