Swirl… swirl…
With the Truth-seeking orb as the center, a large amount of highly dense, compressed water gathers. The density of the giant water orb is so high that even space distorts around it.
Naruto also uses the chakra of Isobu, and Saiken, to add properties like corrosion and coral transmutation.
With Six Path Chakra enhancement, the two powers manifest as obscure runes and seals around the Rasen sphere.
"Heavy!"
The jutsu is so heavy that even Naruto struggles to maintain it despite the enhancement brought by Six Paths Charka Mode.
HAAH…
He quickly tosses it towards the giant lava blob.
BOOM…
The water Rasen sphere collides with the strange lava blob. Their collision produces a massive amount of mist that covers the entire space. From within the mist, several projectiles flies towards the group at an incredible speed.
Swish… swish…
Ding… Ding… Ding…
Naruto, Sasuke, and Izuna quickly deflect several Truth-seeking spears aimed at their vitals.
"Let me disperse the mist!"
Sasuke manifests a Susanoo arm. The arm swings a massive chakra blade to disperse the mist.
WHAM…
Suddenly, an immensely powerful gravitational pull acts upon the trio. The world turns upside down, and they slam into the ground.
Swish…
Before the hard landing, Izuna quickly performs a somersault and stands upright. While Naruto and Sasuke are pinned to the ground, unable to move because of the immense gravity.
"What is it this time?"
Naruto creates several chakra arms to prop himself up. He manages to raise his head because of that.
Sasuke also wears his Susanoo-like armor around his body and resists the heavy crushing.
On their opposite side, Madara is standing perfectly fine, unaffected by the immense gravity.
"Hmm… how surprising!" Madara is surprised to see Izuna stand.
"I thought you would also be like these two, crawling on the ground."
"Well, sorry to disappoint you! But I have been through worse."
Izuna recalls his traumatic experience with several deadly places present in the far stretch of the universe.
He had even felt the gravity of a true black hole.
'Back then, I thought I was going to die!' Izuna thinks to himself. Madara's next words draws his attention.
"It doesn't matter!"
Madara stretches his palm.
SHOOM…
A large amount of chakra gathers in it. Soon, a massive Truth-seeking orb spanning several meters appears in Madara's palm. He continues to infuse chakra in the orb and he expands rapidly and within the next few seconds, it almost occupies the entire dimension.
"Destruction before Rebirth!"
He throws the vast expanding mass of chaos with the power to obliterate the world towards the trio.
"SHIT! If this hits us, then not even our ashes will be left behind." Naruto grits his teeth, blood overflowing from them. Sasuke also does the same. Both of them flare their chakra and create a fusion armor of Kurama Avatar and Susanoo to envelope each other and Izuna.
"Your resistance is futile!"
Madara calmly witnesses the final moments of the group.
"You aren't the only one with the powers to shift dimensions!" Izuna speaks as the orb was inches away from his body.
"DIMENSIONAL SHIFT!"
'Amenominaka'
He uses the same jutsu as Madara.
Shoom…
The surrounding space distorts slightly and the group returns to the shinobi world.
WHOOSH…
Izuna makes his move without giving Madara the opportunity to react. Within the one-hundredth of a second, he disappears from Madara's vision and arrives beside him with a black dagger in his hand.
'So fast!'
Madara's body is unable to follow his movements, but his Rinne-Sharingan peers into the future. Madara is shocked to see Izuna's speed. The black dagger almost makes contact with Madara's heart.
'Even my Rinne-Sharingan, which can peer through reality, cannot trace his movements.'
Madara's thoughts move rapidly. The eye on his forehead flickers with a light.
"Amatsukunitama,"
Shoom…
Suddenly, the space around Madara loses all its color, leaving only a shade of black. While lines travel outward from Madara's position, freezing everything in time.
"I didn't expect I have to use this ability so early!"
Everyone, including Naruto, Sasuke, and even Izuna, is frozen in this extraordinary dimension.
"I am the true ruler of this dimension. Everything follows my will, including space and time."
Madara glances at the frozen expression of the trio. He creates a Truth-seeking blade and prepares to chop Izuna's head.
"This brat possesses a much higher sense of threat to me than these two!"
Even now, Madara feels a sense of palpitation as the tip of Izuna's blade is a few inches away from his heart.
Swish…
Suddenly, Izuna's fingers move slightly.
Whoosh…
Madara immediately backs away.
"Am I being paranoid or did I just see him move in this timeless dimension?" Doubts appear in Madara's mind.
However, the next second, everything clears up.
Shiing…
A purple light shines from Izuna's left eye.
"A Rinnegan?!"
Madara is surprised to see Izuna's left eye.
"No, it's a Rinne-Sharingan!"
Madara's expression changes rapidly from surprise to extreme shock.
SHOOM…
A pulse of purple energy explodes outward from Izuna's body, negating the effect of Madara's time freeze.
CRACK… CRACK…
Several cracks appear in the space around them and the dimension shatters like glass fragments.
"WHAT?!"
The group returns to reality with a taken-aback Madara. Even Black Zetsu, who was sticking to Madara, feels goosebumps as the light in Izuna's eye shines brighter.
"You aren't the only person who can manipulate time! And to be honest, time manipulation isn't even among the strongest Shinjutsu techniques. Several other powerful techniques can even alter the very fate of the entire universe."
AH!
Naruto and Sasuke also break free from Madara's time freeze.
"What just happened?" Naruto is confused as he notices Madara backed away in the corner. His eyes aren't powerful enough to track Izuna's movement.
"I only got a glimpse of it. I saw Izuna Nii-san attack Madara and then… and then Madara… he just froze time!" Sasuke speaks with some doubts in his mind.
"I am not sure, but Izuna Nii-san was able to break Madara's time-freezing technique."
"Oh, you were able to see everything in the frozen time!" Izuna turns to Sasuke with surprise.
"Mm… but I couldn't move my body. I could only see everything with my left eye." Sasuke nods.
"Not bad, Sasuke! You still have a lot of room for growth." Izuna praises Sasuke's prowess.
"Umm… why I am the only one who couldn't see anything?" Naruto scratches his head in confusion.
"Who exactly are you?" Madara questions Izuna with narrowed eyes.
"Didn't I tell you before, I am Izuna Uchiha! The strongest shinobi of this generation." Izuna humble brags.
"No matter what, your power won't stop me!"
Shiing…
The Rinne-Sharingan on Madara's head flickers slightly. The surrounding space distorts.
"Null Void,"
A purple glimmer flashes across Izuna's left eye.
Crack… crack… Bang…
The space distortions shatter and calm returns to the surroundings, ruining Madara's attempt to pull them into another dimension.
"Huh!"
Madara is momentarily surprised but quickly regains his calm and blocks a black lightning spear from Sasuke.
"So, that's the power of your Rinne-Sharingan!"
Just like how the group analyzes his abilities, he also studies them.
"In that case…"
Madara extends his palms, summoning two strange black orbs from his body. He infuses chakra into the orb, creating two glowing purple sickles.
"Tsukumogami Kamaitachi,"
Whoosh…
The sickles disappear into thin air as soon as Madara throws them.
"Where are they?"
Sasuke quickly uses his 'Eye of Truth' to trace the trajectory of the sickles.
"I… I can't see them!"
"I can't sense them either!" Naruto also shakes his head.
"Naruto, DODGGEE TO RIGHTT!"
Izuna's shout snaps him out.
Whoosh…
Naruto swiftly jumps sideways as per Izuna's instruction.
SLASH…
An invisible blade glossed over Naruto's left shoulder, slicing it cleanly from the shoulder joint.
ARGH!
Naruto's broken arm falls to the ground.
Slash…. Slash…
Numerous purple devilish wind blades slice the broken arms to pieces. Not even a speck of dust is left behind.
UGH!
An intense pain spreads across Naruto's body.
"SASUKE! It's coming your way."
Shiing…
Sasuke instinctively activates his Susanoo, covering his body with tough chakra armor.
"DON'T DEFEND, JUST DODGE!"
SLASH…
The invisible attack rips the chest of Susanoo like paper and arrives in front of Sasuke.
