On the other side of the battlefield.
Madara Uchiha looked satisfied at the massive Demonic Statue of the Outer Path summoned before him!
The next moment!
Madara seemed to sense something, turned his head, and happened to see Sasuke using Chidori Spear!
The instant his gaze met Sasuke's, Madara's pupils twitched slightly.
Immediately, his Rinnegan activated, effortlessly deflecting Sasuke's ninjutsu attack!
"You're an Uchiha too. Why not join me and help me achieve peace in the ninja world? (o´Д`o)ノ"
Perhaps because Sasuke resembled his younger brother Izuna too much, Madara felt a pang of sympathy and wanted to recruit Sasuke under his command.
Surprisingly, Sasuke actually began to think about it!
Naruto panicked beside him! (꒪⌓꒪)
Now that Shinju had withdrawn its chakra, and his own chakra was depleted, if Sasuke betrayed them now, he would have no means of countering…
Fortunately, Sasuke shook his head in the end: "Sorry, I already promised someone else I'd help them before you."
Sasuke then sized up Madara, a sly glint in his eyes: "Besides, your power… can't compare to theirs… ∩_∩"
Madara knew his name carried great weight in the ninja world.
Yet this Uchiha boy in front of him, fully aware of his strength, said such a thing.
"The person you mean is that redhead, right?" Madara asked.
"Come to think of it, why can't I sense that guy's chakra here? (‧_‧?)"
Sasuke smirked teasingly: "To fight you, I don't need Shinju—I'm enough on my own!"
With that, the second son activated his Mangekyō Sharingan, immediately launching Amaterasu!
"Whoa!!" The high-temperature black flames instantly ignited on Madara's armor!
Madara looked disdainful: "A mere trickle of sand, not even half of what I faced back then! (◔◡◔)"
He then directly removed the heavy red armor he was wearing!
Naruto: "So smart, breaking Amaterasu…"
A nearby ninja scoffed: "What's smart about it? He just took off his clothes! ᗒᗩᗕ"
After Madara removed his armor, everyone could see the Hashirama cells embedded in his chest.
Before the Allied Shinobi could fully react, Madara spoke again, quietly chanting!
Sasuke furrowed his brow, realizing things were not simple, but couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.
The next moment!
"Bang!!"
Sasuke's body was hit strangely, flying backward dozens of meters!
And where he had been standing, there was nothing!
Naruto: "What's going on?!"
Before Naruto could finish speaking, his body flew back just like Sasuke's!
Throughout this, Madara stood in place, motionless!
"How boring. Ninjas like you actually defeated Obito as the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki…"
As he spoke, Madara casually grabbed a dropped sword from a nearby ninja and threw it in the direction Naruto was flying!
"Fffft!!"
Naruto didn't even have time to react before the sword pierced his chest!
"Which path—!" Sasuke shouted urgently, instantly activating Susanoo, enveloping himself in a purple skeletal armor!
A few seconds later, Sasuke's fully evolved purple Susanoo appeared!
Seeing this, Madara finally showed some interest: "You actually comprehended the essence of Susanoo."
"Too bad, even as Susanoo, there's still an abyss between us!"
He then enveloped his entire body in a blue Susanoo skeleton. Within two seconds, it fully formed into a double-bladed complete Susanoo!
"Clang clang clang——!!"
The two massive Susanoo warrior gods clashed. From the very start, the one Madara controlled gained the upper hand!
He then pressed the attack against the purple Susanoo…
"Swish!!"
The battle lasted only a few minutes before Sasuke's purple Susanoo was defeated. The armor dissipated, and the severely injured Sasuke collapsed to the ground!
Afterward, Madara ignored the wounded Sasuke and turned his gaze to the nearby tailed beasts:
"Beasts, now it's your turn!"
The nine tailed beasts: "…"
Feeling insulted!
One-Tail Shukaku shouted sharply: "This guy really doesn't respect us at all! Everyone, attack together! (눈益눈)"
Eight-Tails Gyuki nodded: "Yeah, I've always disliked this guy! ꐦ≖ ≖"
Nine-Tails: "Although I don't like him either, I have to say, don't underestimate him! This man is extremely dangerous!!"
Before Nine-Tails finished, a sudden warning flashed in its mind!
It didn't even have time to dodge before an unknown heavy strike knocked it to the ground, and the same happened to the other eight tailed beasts!
After striking all nine tailed beasts with "Limbo: Border Jail," Madara formed hand seals: "Chains of the Demonic Statue!"
"Whoosh—!!"
The massive Demonic Statue of the Outer Path opened its mouth, spitting out multiple chakra chains, instantly binding the necks of all nine tailed beasts!! Just like leashing dogs!!
At the critical moment, the Allied Shinobi arrived in time!
The Second Hokage shouted: "We absolutely cannot let Madara succeed!"
Gaara flew to One-Tail Shukaku, pulling at the chains with sand, trying to help: "I was once Shukaku's Jinchuriki, I'll help!"
More and more Allied Shinobi joined in!
Madara's face remained disdainful: "Boring. (╯▽╰)"
"Weaklings always mess with these trivial things, but in fact, it doesn't affect the outcome at all. ┐(´-｀)┌"
With those words!
"Rumble!!"
The Demonic Statue's chains activated, instantly sucking Shukaku's chakra into its mouth!!
Then the Two-Tails, Three-Tails, Four-Tails, Five-Tails…
After devouring all the tailed beasts' chakra, Madara formed the Ten-Tails Jutsu with his hands!
"Whoosh—!!"
The massive Ten-Tails appeared again!!
The remaining Allied Shinobi: "…Not again, how is it back…"
Then, just like Obito as the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, Madara absorbed the gigantic Ten-Tails into his body, instantly entering the Six Paths form!
"Damn Madara! Ծ‸ Ծ" The Second Hokage looked up at Madara flying into the sky, full of rage!
Madara now noticed the Second Hokage below, and a black sphere flew from his back!
"Whoosh!!"
"Swish!!"
The Second Hokage used Flying Thunder God technique the moment Madara acted, but half of his shoulder was still struck by the black sphere, turning to dust!!
"Senju Tobirama, I've wanted to do this to you for a long time. You killed Izuna…" Madara muttered from high above, his expression changed.
From then on, the Rinnegan Madara single-handedly battled multiple top Allied Shinobi forces, overwhelming them completely!
Even the strongest, the Second and Fourth Hokages, were pinned to the ground by Madara's black rods!
Seeing that the remaining allied forces were about to be annihilated, a ninja asked: "Why haven't Sasuke and Naruto woken up yet…"
