Perfect Susanoo Combat made time fly by.
The sky had grown completely dark, with only a few scattered stars hanging in the pale blue horizon.
“Meaningless struggle.” Madara watched the five individuals attacking together with Ninjutsu coldly.
He was growing impatient with the Five Kage.
They had learned from previous battles that Ninjutsu was useless against him, yet they continued to use it in a futile attempt to harm him.
Suddenly, Madara, who was absorbed in the lightning-infused water, paused.
Strands of yellow sand coiled around his body, gradually enveloping him.
Madara looked down in surprise.
It turned out Gaara had secretly used his sand to infiltrate the area behind Madara from the beginning.
When the lightning-mixed water dragon bomb hit Madara, the sand had mixed in.
Gaara raised his hand high.
He hadn’t just infiltrated with sand there!
Madara was gradually wrapped into a ball by the sand.
Several pale red sealing tags emerged on the surface of the sandball, attempting to seal Madara on the spot.
Madara could no longer absorb Ninjutsu.
Continuing would only lead to more sand accumulating and trapping him.
But if he didn’t continue absorbing this lightning-water dragon bomb, he would be paralyzed and unable to move.
“A ninja bearing the name of Kage…
and a bastard!” Madara, heavily wrapped in sand, glared with his last visible eye in Ishikawa’s direction.
The latter, his Susanoo dissipating, slowly drifted towards the ground.
As the sand covered him, Madara’s eye was also buried.
Then, Onoki instantly unleashed Dust Release, hindering Madara’s attempts to break through the seal while giving the remaining four ample time to complete the sealing.
In the last moment before Madara’s vision disappeared, he clearly saw Ishikawa’s figure instantly vanish from his spot in a blur of movement.
An ominous feeling washed over Madara.
As expected, the next moment Ishikawa appeared above the lightning-water-sand ball where Madara was.
He unleashed his Mangekyo Sharingan and Chakra to their fullest.
The immense Chakra mixed with his Mangekyo Sharingan power formed a gigantic shockwave.
BOOM!!!!
A white Tengu mask, with a pair of thick, layered white wings unfurling, let out a deafening roar.
A Susanoo clad in Sengoku era armor, wielding a colossal samurai sword, instantly appeared above Madara.
Ishikawa mirrored the movements of his Susanoo, staring intently at the water-lightning-sand ball below, which was on the verge of cracking.
The Chakra and Mangekyo Sharingan power within him boiled.
He thought, just annoying him wasn’t enough.
Damn it, let’s smash him!!
Ishikawa’s expression turned excited.
Having rested a bit while watching the Five Kage confront Madara, he was now full of energy again.
The Susanoo’s two arms moved to its sides as Ishikawa willed.
It gripped the samurai sword in a baseball batting stance, aiming at the sandball below.
Madara sensed Ishikawa’s Chakra and Mangekyo Sharingan power and erupted with his own Mangekyo Sharingan and Chakra from within the sandball to counter it.
Under the clash of these two immense powers, the Five Kage’s seal appeared so fragile.
CRASH!
In just one breath, the sandball was shattered, and another deep blue Perfect Susanoo burst forth.
Fine sand trickled down the layered blue Mangekyo Sharingan armor.
Madara’s Susanoo stood on the ground, raising its head and drawing its sword.
Deep blue flames erupted continuously.
Two Susanoo, capable of eclipsing the heavens and moon, were about to collide.
The nascent moon hung in the sky above the devastated ground.
Though it was as blue-white as a cloud, it grew brighter with every passing moment.
Ishikawa’s sword tip seemed to reach high enough to pierce the moon.
Ishikawa glanced at the samurai sword in his Susanoo’s hand, frowning.
He suddenly felt it wasn’t quite right.
Then, the samurai sword held by Ishikawa’s Susanoo in both hands changed its appearance.
Huge Mangekyo Sharingan flames licked the blade, instantly transforming the original samurai sword into a polearm, a Guan Dao.
The white Susanoo, in the dark night accompanied by moonlight, leaned sideways and downwards, holding a polearm high above its head towards the sky.
Below him, preparing to meet the attack, was the deep blue Susanoo, its feet planted on the ground.
“Madara!!!” Ishikawa looked down.
His Susanoo gripped the shaft of the Guan Dao with its hands, one in front of the other, swinging the blade behind him into the sky.
Then, Mangekyo Sharingan power erupted from his purple eyes.
The colossal white Susanoo, using gravity, swung the polearm down violently towards Madara!
“ISHIKAWA—!!!!!” The weapons of the two giant Susanoo collided fiercely, unleashing a tremendous roar.
Waves of Chakra shockwaves spread outwards, washing over the clouds in the air.
BANG!!!
Ishikawa pressed the full weight of his Susanoo onto the blade, desperately holding back Madara’s Susanoo.
The ground beneath Madara’s Susanoo began to crack under the immense pressure.
“HAAAAAAAH!!!” Mangekyo Sharingan power continuously surged from Madara’s eyes.
The gigantic Susanoo began to flap its deep blue scaled wings, attempting to mitigate its disadvantage and shifting its angle to deflect the force of Ishikawa’s downward strike into the ground.
BOOM!!!!!
Massive Chakra combined with Mangekyo Sharingan power condensed into a sphere and instantly expanded, engulfing both Ishikawa and Madara in a dazzling flash of light.
Energy gathered at the point where the two Susanoo collided.
Because it was too immense and there was no way to convert it, it triggered a massive Chakra explosion.
“URGH!” Gaara’s sand could no longer maintain its form and was instantly scattered by the powerful shockwave.
The high temperatures generated by the energy collision scorched everything around them, and the floating Five Kage were blown away.
“What in the world…
is this…” Tsunade, caught off guard and blown away, immediately activated Ninjutsu: Creation Rebirth, barely stabilizing her internally chaotic Chakra flow, disrupted by the battle between the two.
The remaining Four Kage were affected by the powerful combat aftershock.
They were scattered by the violent blade winds and the residual impact of the high-temperature explosion, flying off in different directions.
The power generated by the collision of the two was even far greater than several Tailed Beast Bombs detonating simultaneously.
The Four Kage in the distance lay amidst scorched wooden debris, struggling to get up.
The other Fourth Division Allied Shinobi had retreated as ordered when they saw the Five Kage initiate the sealing, heading to other Edo Tensei battlefields to provide support.
—— At this time, on another end of the battlefield, in a dark and damp stalactite cave.
A man wearing a dark crimson robe, with a necklace around his neck and blood-red eyes, stood before a wall at the cave entrance.
His blood-red Mangekyo Sharingan with three tomoe briefly scanned the dark surroundings, and he had some answers.
Over there, a boring barrier.
With that thought, his crimson Mangekyo Sharingan power instantly covered his entire body.
A semi-transparent skeletal structure formed, instantly creating a half-body Susanoo about five to six meters tall.
The fierce crimson skeleton, following the man’s movements, powerfully punched the wall in front of him!
BOOM!!!
The wall in front of him instantly shattered.
Dust and rubble fell into the cave beyond.
The man, with clear Edo Tensei features on his face, slowly dispersed his Susanoo.
Inside the cave, Kabuto, wearing a hat, who was squatting on the ground laughing at a chessboard in front of him, froze.
He seemed surprised.
He turned his head to look at the figure slowly entering and calmly said: “You managed to get through my barrier and find this place…
Itachi.” Behind Kabuto, the man in the hat, lay a woman who had fainted.
It was Anko.
