"I've always been looking forward to a thrilling battle..."
Akihara Kagura manipulated the armored wooden figure of Susanoo, advancing step by step, his voice gradually rising: "A battle to defeat the strongest person in the Ninja World, whether it's you or the First Hokage Senju Hashirama, to put a comma at the end of the years of strategies laid by me and my predecessors..."
"A comma?"
Uchiha Madara squinted his eyes.
"Because this is not the end I aim to reach."
Akihara Kagura looked up at the sky, then lowered his head to gaze at Uchiha Madara again: "For the arrival of the end of the Ninja World, this battle is just a beginning."
"It seems my efforts over the years weren't in vain..."
Akihara Kagura manipulated the wooden figure to raise its palm again, aiming at the blue Susanoo's head: "At least, for now, this beginning seems quite decent..."
"You brat..."
The chakra within Uchiha Madara's body surged instantly, and the Sharingan in his eyes transformed into the appearance of the Rinnegan, a touch of madness appearing in his gaze: "To me, this battle has only just begun..."
In the next moment!
Uchiha Madara raised his fingers!
The dark clouds in the sky suddenly dispersed, and a meteor descended from above!
Heaven Concealed!
Uchiha Madara mercilessly activated his dojutsu!
Along with Uchiha Madara's action, the blue Susanoo also clenched its fingers together!
At the edge of the battlefield.
Hyuga Neji was sweating coldly from his forehead.
The expressions of Kakashi Hatake and Uchiha Sasuke, among others, weren't looking too good either, whereas an unfazed Might Guy and Uchiha Obito remained composed.
"In the sky..."
Hyuga Neji raised his head to look up at the sky.
A massive meteor was falling rapidly from the sky, constantly rubbing against the air, and even flames appeared at the tail of the meteor!
"This kind of jutsu?"
Akihara Kagura looked up at the meteor gradually descending from the sky: "A jutsu that even the First Hokage could stop, do you want to use it to attack me?"
"Sounds like you're underestimating Hashirama..."
Uchiha Madara sneered mockingly as he looked at Akihara Kagura: "Perhaps I should find a way to fully revive Hashirama, so you can witness his power when he was alive..."
"..."
Akihara Kagura shook his head and stretched his palm toward the sky.
As Akihara Kagura moved, the armored wooden figure of Susanoo also extended its palm, and a dazzling white light shot into the sky, piercing through the meteor in an instant!
Boom!
The entire meteor exploded!
After that meteor shattered, it revealed another meteor behind it, falling at an even faster speed, and even larger in size!
Boom!
The dazzling Dust Release white light once again penetrated the second meteor!
Countless fragments of rock rained down from the sky, falling like shooting stars!
However...
This was merely the prelude to another jutsu!
Uchiha Madara raised his palm, a black sphere resembling a black hole flew into the sky, its massive gravitational force directly pulling Akihara Kagura's armored wooden figure of Susanoo towards the sky!
"Chibaku Tensei!"
Uchiha Madara released Chibaku Tensei with ease.
Compared to Nagato's sealing jutsu, the gravitational pull of Uchiha Madara's Chibaku Tensei was even stronger, and Akihara Kagura's controlled Susanoo was directly pulled into the sky, the shattered meteor fragments raced towards the black sphere!
Uchiha Madara never expected that Heaven Concealed could achieve victory in one blow; the purpose of those two meteors was merely to facilitate the use of Chibaku Tensei for sealing!
In an instant!
Akihara Kagura, along with the armored wooden figure of Susanoo, was sealed up!
Uchiha Madara watched the large stone sphere that appeared in the sky, finally letting out a temporary sigh of relief, as his complete form of Susanoo slowly disintegrated.
For a ninja with the Rinnegan, the sealing of Chibaku Tensei was as easy as moving an arm; this kind of sealing jutsu could easily seal some powerful beings.
But...
This seal might not be effective permanently.
Even Uchiha Madara didn't think the Chibaku Tensei seal could completely seal Akihara Kagura, he merely wanted the battle to return to the domain he was good at...
"Next..."
Uchiha Madara flexed his fingers, his gaze turning icy: "It's a battle between Rinnegan users."
At the edge of the battlefield.
Karin couldn't contain herself and was about to charge up.
However, Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama simultaneously held her back.
"I have to go save Lord Kagura!"
Karin struggled desperately to break free from their restraint!
"It won't help even if you go!"
Senju Tobirama pressed down on Karin's shoulder and spoke in a deep voice: "You don't need to worry about that guy; although Uchiha Madara is a dark-minded bastard, when it comes to being sinister and cunning, he's still far from that inherently evil brat Akihara Kagura, that brat would never let his battle fall into a disadvantage..."
"..."
A group of Root Ninja glared at each other with bloodshot eyes.
In just one sentence, he insulted two Uchiha, truly worthy of the Second Hokage!
"Well..."
Senju Hashirama wanted to defend his friend.
"Shut up!"
Senju Tobirama's one sentence silenced his brother.
Senju Tobirama understood Akihara Kagura quite well; upon seeing that Akihara Kagura possessed the Rinnegan, he knew Akihara Kagura must have long prepared for how to battle against a Rinnegan user.
