Chapter 224
Title: The Two Meet... (BONUS CHAPTER)
….
As Sasuke opens his eyes he can clearly see around him, even with the bandages blocking his vision, he can still see through them. He looks around and sees that there are multiple White Zetsu's around him.
He slowly takes off his bandages and his fully developed Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan appears.
Fwosh!
The upper body of his Susanoo appears behind him.
Baam!
He crushes all of the Zetsu around him before they can even react. They aren't strong and many half-decent Genin could defeat a Zetsu in a straight-out fight. So Sasuke easily kills them all, even the so-called 'original' is killed easily.
Sasuke looks around again and notices that even in the darkness he can see so clearly that he doesn't think that he has ever seen so good in his life. But somehow he was confused… he understood something when he fought Yami. He can't do it, he can't even come close to touching the Hokage. He knows that Yami defeated even Tobi, or as he likes to call himself as Madara. But… he isn't even sure what he wants anymore.
'I know that Heisenberg is already dead. Killed and tortured in a mission gone wrong. I can't even say that Yami was in the wrong in doing what he did… what do I even do anymore?' Contemplates Sasuke, unsure where he should go and what he should do now.
He looks at the cave around him. "I better get out of here then."
The Susanoo then starts punching the ceiling.
….
Soon he is back into the open and sees that around him is just a forest. He looks around and by the position of the stars, he can tell where he is and what time it is. He immediately decides to go towards Konoha… but as soon as he starts jumping from tree to tree a man in a red cloak walks past him.
Sasuke immediately notices this and he especially notices the man's hair that is spilling out of his cloak.
'Itachi!?!?!?' Thinks Sasuke shockingly, completely confused by this turn of events.
….
-Yami POV-
I just look at the cave around me and can't help but smile. I just revived Itachi and put him under Kotoamatsukami again. This time he will 'coincidentally' run into Sasuke. They will then go and kill Orochimaru, well Itachi will have him release the Edo Tensei and then he will seal him with his Totsuka Blade. Anyway, I understand that the Totsuka Blade and Yamata Mirror are spiritual weapons, but I already have them now. Of course, as soon as Itachi finishes his job, I will get back the Totsuka blade. I just cut off a part of his soul and got rid of its memories and made it 'pure' and then I fused it with my own.
It wasn't that hard really, though sadly as a consequence Itachi won't remember specific moments about his life. Well, that is okay for me, I don't really care about it. I just didn't wanna get influenced by his memories, that is the only reason I purified his soul.
Orochimaru has really been a nice pawn, he played into my hands. When you know what someone wants, they can be very predictable, especially with my future knowledge. He is VERY predictable to me, he has been dancing on my palm ever since he left Konoha. It isn't that he wasn't smart or anything like that, it's just that he didn't know about my hidden cards, he didn't know that Sasuke was already under the influence of Kotoamatsukami before he left Konoha. Then Sasuke got Kotoamatsukami used on him before he 'killed' Orochimaru, and he got Kotoamatsukami used on him again as he wanted to fight me during the Kage Summit. Every time they were only very specific commands, I can after all use Kotoamatsukami quite often and even if I can't. I can just easily change my eyes with some Shisui clones who have their Kotoamatsukami charged up.
Anyway, now the next phase of the plan begins. Orochimaru will die and the Edo Tensei will be released… that is when the hard part comes. Madara… he will be infinitely troublesome, not even Kaguya can be considered as dangerous as him. She just throws power around, but he will learn with every confrontation we will have.
It seems like I will have to be extra careful about this or it could spell trouble for me. Because I must let Madara live long enough till Kaguya is summoned and then… I win.
A small smile appears on my face as I think of this. Future knowledge really is my biggest blessing in this world. It allows me to make plans that no one can follow or predict.
….
-General POV-
On another side of the battlefield, after almost all of the Zetsu were killed, hundreds of Edo Tensei Shinobi, Samurai, and monks come back to life-fighting against the Allied Shinobi forces. But even with that huge number, the Allied Shinobi forces numbered at a hundred thousand, so they easily took care of the undead troops and sealed them.
That is when one of the Edo Tensei stops moving and his movements become rigid as he just slams his hand on the ground.
[Summoning Jutsu]
Poof!
And a coffin appears, and as it opens, a man with long spiky hair comes out. He has two fully developed Sharingan and a calm look on his face.
He looks around and then looks at the one who summoned him.
"It seems like I have been brought back from the dead to fight a new war." Says the man as he looks at the Edo Tensei puppet who summoned him. No… he is looking even beyond that… and he is looking straight into Orochimaru's eyes. Which immediately unnerved the latter, it all seemed like he had already seen through him.
Orochimaru then talks through the Edo Tensei that he is manually controlling. "I must say, I am quite pleased to meet a man like you… Madara Uchiha."
Madara just snorts in annoyance at this. He already knows what is happening and Orochimaru is trying to butter him up. So Madara only half listens to him as Orochimaru starts bragging on how Madara is now beyond even his prime and that the Hashirama Cells inside Madara's newly created body will allow him to use Wood Style.
"-and that is how you are now stronger than even in your prime. Your body is now a combination between you and your rival, Hash-"
"Are you done now.." Says Madara, not really asking at all. He just informed Orochimaru that he is done listening to him now.
"Ah! Sorry I get a little excited when talking about my experiments and yo-"
Baam!
A giant skeletal arm appears and crushes the Edo Tensei puppet that Orochimaru was talking through. Madara looks at the puppet and says. "I am not your experiment little man. I will show you something that you can never reach, a power so out of your understanding that you will worship as a god."
Orochimaru smiled at this. "Oh, I can't wait… hehehehe."
Madara doesn't say anything as he summons his Susanoo and he does some hand signs, while his two-faced Susanoo does the same.
..
Suddenly within the battlefield, a shadow descends, and the Shinobi Alliance members who have high morale due to being on the overwhelmingly winning side suddenly stop and look upwards.
Immediately their spirits are crushed…
"W -What the hell man…"
"Is this… is this the power of a god.."
"Hahaha… what the hell man.. am I dreaming or something."
Fwosh!
The clouds make way as the giant meteor comes towards the ground.
But as everyone's spirits are full of despair. A dark flash flies up towards the meteor and touches it…
Fwosh!
And just like that, it is gone. Everyone looks at him wide-eyed, even Orochimaru, but he didn't look for long as Sasuke and Itachi just arrived at his base.
The only one who wasn't surprised was Madara. He looked at Yami and had a calm look on his eyes.
'Yami Inuzuka… it seems like you have grown even more.' Contemplates Madara as he looks at Yami, who has crow-like wings on his back and stays in there, midair while looking down at Madara.
The two of them, both have cam faces as they look upon each-others eyes. Even as they are far away from each other, due to their strong Dojutsu, they can see the other perfectly clearly.
….
AUTHOR NOTE:
Next is… the Yami vs Madara fight, it MUST BE A MASTERPIECE. I must spend more time thinking about it. I must write the perfect fight… I need to get in both Madara's and Yami's heads and write the fight slowly and not rush it as I want them both to use strategies and such.
