Sage Kabuto!
5: Madara Uchiha vs.
Sage Kabuto!
“Who I am is none of your concern.” Amagiri Ren looked down at Kabuto.
“Release the Impure World Reincarnation binding Itachi Uchiha and Nagato immediately.” “You have quite a nerve for an unknown brat.” A smile spread across the pale face beneath Kabuto’s hood.
“Hidden Shadow Snake Hands!” Kabuto suddenly attacked.
More than a dozen snakes shot from his sleeves, flying toward Amagiri Ren’s face like arrows.
Amagiri Ren did not move.
He knew Kabuto could not harm him.
“Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!” Madara arrived at that moment.
A massive fireball swept through the snakes, incinerating every one of them before engulfing the place where Kabuto stood.
Kabuto narrowly escaped by leaping backward.
“What incredible chakra…” Kabuto stared at the enormous flames.
“Who is he?” That Fireball Jutsu was far larger than anything an ordinary member of the Uchiha Clan could produce.
Kabuto had seen Sasuke Uchiha use the same technique, but Sasuke’s fireball had not even been a tenth of this size.
When he finally saw the caster, his eyes widened.
“You’re… Madara Uchiha?” Kabuto was stunned.
He had conducted extensive research into Madara and had even managed to obtain some of his cells.
He had intended to summon Madara through Impure World Reincarnation during the Fourth Shinobi World War.
He never expected Madara to be revived before he could do so.
“You dared to attack Ren-sama?” Madara stood beside Amagiri Ren and looked down coldly at Kabuto.
“You must be tired of living.” “That man possesses Orochimaru’s power.” Tobirama arrived with Hashirama and immediately noticed the numerous traces of Orochimaru within Kabuto’s body.
“Impressive.” Hashirama examined Kabuto with mild surprise.
“He has even obtained the power of Ryūchi Cave’s Sage Mode.
That is not something an ordinary person could control.” “The First Hokage… the Second Hokage… and Madara Uchiha…” Kabuto’s body trembled.
“I never imagined you could summon people of this caliber.” Who was this young man?
How could he possess such terrifying abilities?
“Master, there is no need to waste words on him.” Madara’s Sharingan spun.
“These eyes can force him to release the technique.” Madara had never been patient.
Even though Kabuto had mastered Sage Mode, he was still insignificant in Madara’s eyes.
There was no reason to explain the situation to him.
“Very well.” Amagiri Ren nodded.
He had no interest in explaining anything to Kabuto either.
Kabuto was suspicious by nature.
Even if they told him the truth, he would not necessarily believe them.
It would be faster to let Madara handle him.
“Wait!
There is no need to fight!” Just as Madara prepared to attack, the two Valkyries arrived.
Brunhilde patiently explained Ragnarok and the coming battle between humanity and the gods.
She urged Kabuto to cooperate with Amagiri Ren and the others, since the survival of their entire world was at stake.
“I see.” Kabuto smiled.
“But how am I supposed to know that any of what you’ve said is true?” Even as he spoke, he quietly began gathering natural energy.
Brunhilde faltered.
Madara had already moved.
He closed the distance in an instant and attacked Kabuto in close combat.
Kabuto barely endured two exchanges before he was forced back.
He quickly formed hand seals as he retreated.
“Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu!” A tremendous amount of chakra gathered into a giant water dragon that surged toward Madara.
“Is that all?” Madara made no attempt to dodge.
He took the attack head-on and split the water dragon apart with his bare hand.
Kabuto immediately used the Hydrification Technique, dissolving his body into water and concealing himself from Madara.
“Against an enemy of this level, I need to gather as much information as possible before making my move…” Hidden within the water, Kabuto calmly considered how to continue the battle.
Madara gave him no such opportunity.
He began attacking the entire area without caring where Kabuto was hiding.
“Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!” Madara expelled an enormous mass of flames.
The technique was far more powerful than an ordinary Fireball Jutsu.
In an instant, it evaporated all the water Kabuto had created and left him with nowhere to hide.
“Sage Art: White Dragon Technique!” Kabuto immediately entered Sage Mode.
His body transformed into a white dragon as he charged at Madara, his physical power temporarily increasing dozens of times over.
Madara clenched his fist.
A terrifying power descended around him, making the earth tremble and the sky darken.
“Susanoo!” Madara’s Susanoo emerged around him, towering over the battlefield.
It drew the massive blade at its waist and swung twice.
Kabuto’s white dragon body was instantly cut into three pieces.
“Even after mastering Sage Mode, he is still far too weak against Madara’s Susanoo.” Hashirama shook his head.
No one understood Madara’s strength better than he did.
“I surrender.” Kabuto recognized that he had no chance of winning and immediately changed his attitude.
“I am willing to cooperate with you.” Madara ignored him.
He grabbed Kabuto by the neck and lifted him from the ground.
His Sharingan locked onto Kabuto’s eyes and placed him under genjutsu.
“Impure World Reincarnation—Release!” Under Madara’s control, Kabuto released the Impure World Reincarnation binding Itachi and Nagato.
Amagiri Ren sensed that their souls had been freed and signaled for Madara to release Kabuto.
“True: Impure World Reincarnation!” Amagiri Ren then performed his perfected technique himself.
Itachi Uchiha and the Six Paths of Pain were brought back once more.
“That technique…” This was the first time Tobirama had watched Amagiri Ren perform Impure World Reincarnation.
He stared in disbelief.
It was clearly different from the technique he had created.
“Do you finally understand, Tobirama?” Madara gave him a mocking smile.
“The Impure World Reincarnation you invented was nothing more than a crude imitation of Ren-sensei’s technique.” Madara was thoroughly satisfied by the expression on the Second Hokage’s face.
