Arrogant, conceited.
No one expected Naruto to heal the pillars, and even regarded the pillars and Uchiha Madara as ants.
You should know that they both directly conquered the ninja world in the past.
Now, they have become challengers instead.
Uchiha Madara was first stunned, then laughed madly: "Hahaha, kid, interesting, you're quite arrogant, just my taste."
After the mad laughter was an extremely boiling murderous intent.
"You're the first person to talk to me like this."
Saying that, Uchiha Madara leaped down and slowly walked towards Naruto.
At that moment, dark clouds covered the sky, and a terrifying pressure came abruptly, almost overwhelming the Seireitei.
"Indeed, he is the strongest of the Uchiha clan. The oppressive feeling is too strong." Uchiha Itachi's eyes showed amazement.
Obviously, Uchiha Madara's strength far exceeded his imagination.
He thought that after awakening his eyes, he had already surpassed Uchiha Madara. Now it seems that there is still a considerable gap.
But this also gave him confidence. With Uchiha Madara and the pillars working together, Naruto would definitely be defeated.
"The potential of the Sharingan is limitless." Itachi felt even more confident in his heart.
He wished that Sasuke were by his side now, watching Naruto's defeat together.
With Uchiha Madara declaring war on Naruto, the entire battlefield was instantly divided.
The top Shinigami quickly found the strong ninja of the ninja world.
"Boom, boom, boom." Suddenly, a bright red light appeared in the sky above the Seireitei, followed by a wild laughter.
"Hahaha, I'm here!!!" Several figures rushed towards this side at high speed.
Nine-Tails, Jugo, Karin, Gaara, and Nagato.
With the arrival of these five, the aura of the Seireitei reached its peak.
The pressure had now shifted to the side of the ninja world.
Nine-Tails snarled, pointing fiercely at the several figures below, "You all go together, I'll take care of this."
After successfully comprehending Bankai, Nine-Tails' strength had reached an unimaginable level.
For the ninja world's alliance, the most despairing thing was Nagato's hostility.
In the past, Nagato had been the strongest force in the ninja world's alliance.
Now, Nagato had joined the Seireitei and become a Shinigami...
"His body has already healed, and if he has completed his Shinigamification, his strength may have already surpassed Grandpa." Tsunade frowned, despairingly.
Although it seemed like the ninja world's alliance had many strong figures, in front of the top-tier experts, these figures were not even worth considering.
Furthermore.
On the side of the Seireitei, there were still two Tailed Beasts and the presence of Nagato.
The balance of this war had once again shifted in favor of the Seireitei.
Nagato quietly stared at the ninja alliance below, a mocking smile on his lips.
"So, this is what it feels like to stand at the top." His hands gradually gathered a boiling power.
"Hey, Nagato kid, don't start with a big move as soon as you come up, how are we going to play like this?" Nine-Tails' eyebrows twitched, speechless. "Playing a game should be gradual, or else others won't have a gaming experience."
"A game? Do they see this war as a game?" The ninja below were filled with anger, but they didn't dare to speak out because the energy gathered in Nagato's hands was so terrifying that it seemed capable of destroying everything.
"This war is nothing more than child's play." Nagato had no expression on his face.
"Don't disrupt the plan," Karin whispered softly.
Nagato hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly dissipated the energy in his hands.
"Let's play with them then."
The battle began again, but this time there were some changes in the lineup. Unfortunately, Jiraiya directly faced Tobirama and Hashirama.
The Shinigami also rushed towards the ninja alliance.
In the midst of the chaos, Uchiha Madara laughed.
Occasionally, dozens of Shinigami would charge at Uchiha Madara, but they were all thrown aside like flies.
No resistance at all.
Uchiha Madara's punches and kicks were lethal for these ordinary Shinigami.
He stood alone, without blinking an eye, and advanced towards Naruto, who was below him.
"Kid!" Uchiha Madara showed a bloodthirsty smile. "Do you also want to dance?"
His tone was cold and overbearing, sending shivers down one's spine.
"You mere ants...." Naruto looked down from a high place, his expression cold and indifferent. He extended his right palm, and in the next moment, explosive flames rained down from the sky.
The sky in Uchiha Madara's area was shrouded in red, and the air was almost instantly sucked dry.
The enormous Reiatsu capable of crushing everything made Uchiha Madara's body produce the sound of bones shifting, and his teeth trembled madly.
"This... this chakra." His face was filled with shock and disbelief.
"It's here! It's here!" He went crazy.
For the first time in his life, he actually felt such despair from someone.
This opponent awakened the madness and excitement in his heart, making him burst with unimaginable potential that had been somewhat rusty.
"I didn't expect that one day I would become a challenger. Hahaha, kid, you've done well!! Very well!!"
Susano'o appeared behind him, and then Hashirama began to form seals, summoning a giant wooden figure.
"Madara, let's fight side by side!" Hashirama looked at Madara emotionally.
In the past, the two of them had experienced life and death battles, and after their victory, Hashirama had lived in the pain in his heart.
Now!
He had the opportunity to face the enemy together with the man he cared about.
Even if they died here, so what!
"Enough of your babbling, Hashirama. Step aside; this kid is my prey." Uchiha Madara coldly snorted but with a hint of concern in his words.
"Hahaha! Let's go, Madara!" Hashirama shouted.
Although Uchiha Madara didn't say a word, he still expressed his thoughts with actions.
The wooden figure and Susano'o both rushed towards the explosive flames.
The endless flames completely consumed this area.
As a beam of light appeared, the explosive flames were suddenly split in half, and Uchiha Madara and Hashirama simultaneously rushed out from within.
"Let's go, Madara!"
"Wood Release: Tree World Rend!" Hashirama's spirit was high as he formed seals with his hands.
In the next moment, countless trees sprouted from the ground at an extremely fast speed, and thick branches entangled toward Naruto high in the sky.
"Don't get in the way, Hashirama!!" Madara coldly snorted and leaped high into the air. The sword in Susano'o's hand slashed fiercely towards Naruto.
The two strongest ninja of the old era joined forces. Such a formidable power was extremely rare.
But in front of Naruto, their attack seemed feeble.
"Dual Lotus Exploding Flame Formation." Naruto casually pointed, and several lotus-shaped explosive flames instantly enveloped Madara and Hashirama.
With a dense and continuous explosion sound, both of them were sent flying like cannonballs.
Hashirama's Tree World Rend was instantly ignited by the starry flames, turning into a raging inferno, and Madara's Susano'o burst into nothingness in an instant.
"Too weak. The legends of the past are just that."
In the space, Naruto let out a disappointed sigh.
"Damn it, just a casual strike, and I couldn't stop it. When did the ninja world get someone like this?" Uchiha Madara was slammed into the ground, though he didn't suffer any injuries, the insult was strong.
This time, Naruto didn't even use his Shikai, Ryuujin Jakka.
The previous Ryuujin Jakka, while somewhat restrained, almost killed the First Hokage.
So Naruto thought that the power of Souren Sōkatsui should be just right.
After all, Uchiha Madara was also part of the plan.
"Madara, the ninja world has changed a lot." Hashirama lay in a deep pit, emitting a light smoke from his body, with a relieved smile. "Our era is over, Madara."
He felt somewhat at ease.
Naruto didn't even exert his full power, and they had already fallen. The outcome was clear.
It seemed that the Seireitei's power far exceeded that of the ninja world's alliance.
Although it was somewhat sad and frustrating, at least, he could die alongside Madara.
It could be considered a fitting end.
"I haven't lost yet." Uchiha Madara said with a dark face, coldly.
He stared stubbornly at Naruto, his face filled with unwillingness.
"If my eyes..."
Naruto's strength made the blood in his body start to boil, and he wanted to continue the fight!
"Gurgle, gurgle." Suddenly, a strange machine rolled up next to Uchiha Madara, and inside it, there were Sharingan eyes.
"Put your eyes in." Naruto's cold voice echoed in the sky.
Uchiha Madara was momentarily puzzled.
These were... his own eyes?
He angrily glared at Naruto, the feeling of humiliation burning inside him.
After a cold snort, he reluctantly put his own Sharingan eyes back in.
After a moment of brewing, he looked at Naruto and gave a rebellious smile, laughing madly, "You will pay for everything you've done!"
He then turned to look at Hashirama. "Hashirama, stay aside. The upcoming battle is not something you can intervene in." He sounded arrogant.
But he had the confidence to say such words.
Now, with his Rinnegan and Wood Release cells, his power far exceeded that of Hashirama.
Although the Gods of the Ninja World were powerful, they had become history.
"These eyes..." Hashirama looked at Madara's Sharingan with shock.
"Yes, this is the evolution of the Mangekyou Sharingan, the Rinnegan," Madara said triumphantly. His chakra, far surpassing Hashirama's, was directed at Naruto. "Kid, I hope you can entertain me."
"Tenga Shinsei!"
The earth began to tremble, and the air compressed sharply.
A meteorite, larger than the eye could see, slowly descended from the sky.
"What kind of jutsu is this?!" Even the Gods of the Ninja World, including Hashirama, were shocked, seeing this enormous meteorite that could darken the sky. Could it be created by human power alone?
"Is this the power of the Sage of the Six Paths?" Hashirama muttered to himself.
At this moment, he realized the gap between himself and Madara.
He had been left far behind by Madara.
As Madara had said, he could no longer intervene in this battle.
The overwhelming pressure brought by the meteorite made it nearly impossible to breathe.
"Is this the true power of the Rinnegan?" Nagato, who witnessed this, shook his head with a sigh. "This meteorite is almost as powerful as the Ten Tails' Bijuudama. But Madara doesn't seem to consume any chakra at all. Is this the true ability of the Rinnegan?"
Nagato shrugged, feeling a bit frustrated.
But there was also a sense of relief and determination.
The Uzumaki clan's talent was not inferior, and after his injuries were healed and he became a Shinigami, his strength increased.
Now, even when facing Uchiha Madara, he had the confidence to fight him.
Facing the meteorite that covered the sky, Naruto remained relaxed.
"The true power of the Rinnegan is not bad, but it's not enough." A colorless Rasengan formed in his hand.
The Reiatsu contained in the swirling sphere was astonishing.
He casually threw the Rasengan.
The Rasengan, only the size of his palm, described a beautiful arc as it approached the meteorite.
The tiny Rasengan appeared almost incapable of causing any damage to the meteorite.
However, when the Rasengan collided with the meteorite, the unleashed power made even Uchiha Madara sit up.
In an instant, the palm-sized Rasengan erupted with unimaginable power. The meteorite, seemingly as fragile as paper, shattered continuously, disintegrating into countless fragments as the Rasengan slowly penetrated its interior, causing an explosion from within.
Endless light radiated from the cracks in the meteorite, illuminating the entire sky, and countless meteorite fragments rained down.
With deafening explosions, the meteorite was blasted into dust.
"This was just an appetizer." However, before the Shinigami side could even breathe a sigh of relief, a second meteorite descended.
This time, the meteorite crashed fiercely onto the Rasengan that had not fully unleashed its explosive power yet, causing the sky and the earth to shake once again.
This meteorite, just like the one before it, shattered completely, releasing a terrifying shockwave that caused countless casualties among the allied forces.
There were cries of agony and fear everywhere.
The second meteorite was easily neutralized, and Uchiha Madara's expression showed a momentary stiffness.
He squinted, looking at Naruto with some suspicion and curiosity.
"Clearly, he doesn't have eyes, but he can achieve this level. Is this some kind of Kekkei Genkai?"
Madara believed that the Mangekyou Sharingan was the most powerful Kekkei Genkai, but the successive destruction of the Bijuudama made him deeply curious about Naruto.
"If it's just this, I may not be able to defeat him." Madara's heart sank.
"Susano'o."
A Susano'o even taller than a mountain stood up, causing the ground to shake.
"Yasaka Magatama."
The massive Susano'o launched several Magatama beads, each containing tremendous energy.
"Hakudo no Hachijuichi: Senkou." A massive glass wall appeared, effortlessly blocking the Magatama beads.
"What kind of jutsu is this? It's not chakra inside, is it a new energy system?" Madara frowned slightly, controlling Susano'o to swing down its weapon forcefully.
"Clang." With a crisp sound, the glass remained unscathed, but Susano'o was pushed back slightly, looking somewhat comical.
"You can't even break through the defense?" Naruto, with a playful expression, looked at Madara, who was now showing a hint of curiosity.
This feeling was like challenging unbeatable strong figures within the clan during his childhood.
This nostalgic feeling made his blood boil.
"Kid, you are the first person to put such great pressure on me! I, Uchiha Madara, acknowledge you!" Madara raised his head and laughed wildly, his expression becoming crazy.
"Oh? But I'm actually getting sleepy." Naruto slowly drew his Zanpakuto. "I'm getting a bit bored."
