In a moment of urgency, Obito directly used the power of the Gedo Statue, and the next moment, the Gedo Statue spat out a huge purple chakra dragon from its mouth. This dragon could instantly absorb an opponent's chakra.
However, when the mysterious purple Rinnegan appeared, Uchiha Yoru coldly looked at Obito, his eyes revealing a hint of greed, Gedo Statue! He must get his hands on it.
Super Shinra Tensei
Suddenly, a strong repulsive force swept in. Obito had already entered a phased space, thus avoiding this attack, but the Gedo Statue was not so lucky.
Under the terrifying repulsive force, the figure, which was already larger than the Tailed Beasts, was pushed away, like an invisible glass wall brutally crushing everything in its path.
Boom~
In an instant, a huge crater appeared in the Forest of Death, and then Uchiha Yoru clasped his hands together, and a black sphere slowly rose into the air.
Planetary Devastation!
Obito, who was in a phased state, was not affected by this repulsive force, and thus witnessed the black sphere rise. He broke into a cold sweat, cursing. Damn it! Uchiha Yoru actually wanted to take his Gedo Statue.
The black sphere appeared in the sky, blocking out the sun. The next moment, a terrifying suction force came, and the ground below started to crack and rise, as if gravity had been lost.
"Uchiha Yoru!"
Obito was terrified at this moment, realizing he had been tricked. Uchiha Yoru still had strength to spare.
Sage Art: Wind Release: Rasenshuriken
The next moment, Uchiha Yoru, holding a terrifying ninjutsu, entered the phased space, ignoring all the damage.
"This ninjutsu!" However, when Obito hurriedly dodged, he was shocked to find that Uchiha Yoru, holding this terrifying S-rank ninjutsu, could constantly track him.
Obito, in his phased state, turned his head and stared at Uchiha Yoru, exclaiming in shock, "You actually...!"
Uchiha Yoru, transformed into a bolt of lightning, sneered, "Your phasing lasts only five minutes. After that, let's see how you dodge."
Damn it, he couldn't outspeed his opponent, and revealing his physical form only made him an easier target for Uchiha Yoru's terrifying Taijutsu.
Obito, filled with anger, showed a fierce cold smile, "Alright! Uchiha Yoru! You've got it!"
As Obito's body moved towards the ground, half of it already phasing into the earth, a sinister smile suddenly appeared on his face.
In an instant, his body solidified, and his arm reached out from the void, pulling out a fan with a chain.
"Uchiha Yoru!"
At this moment, Obito revealed a sneaky smile, successful in his plot. The moment his ninjutsu collided with the fan, he spat out five words.
"Uchiha Counter!"
Instantly, the terrifying Sage Art Wind Release: Rasenshuriken in Uchiha Yoru's hand flashed a dazzling white light and began to rebound.
Under the intense white light, Uchiha Yoru's purple Rinnegan eyes spun, reflecting mysterious light. Facing his own ninjutsu rebounding, he stretched out his left hand.
"Haha, Uchiha Yoru, at this distance, even the Preta Path's chakra absorption can't keep up!"
Obito laughed maniacally, but in the next moment, under the terrifying explosion of the Sage Art: Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, a streak of lightning flashed, appearing suddenly. Caught off guard, he only felt a pain in his arm, and as white liquid splattered everywhere, his eyes widened in horror as he entered Kamui.
Boom~
After the terrifying vortex of the explosion of the Sage Art: Wind Release: Rasenshuriken dissipated, Uchiha Yoru's figure emerged. Within the range of the terrifying Wind Release explosion, his body's Lightning Release flickered crazily to its utmost limit.
Even so, his body was covered in countless fine cuts, as if it had been slashed by numerous tiny, sharp blades.
However, at this moment, Uchiha Yoru was holding the Uchiha clan's Gunbai fan, and as he looked at his palm, a smile slowly formed on his face.
"The body of a Sage, indeed very useful."
His body emitted a faint white smoke, and his injuries healed almost instantly, not because his Thunder God Armor was poor, but because Wind Release countered Lightning Release. He hadn't held back in his Wind Release just now.
"What a disgusting arm."
Disgusted, he tossed the pale half of the arm that was on the Gunbai fan aside, and Uchiha Yoru looked up and coldly sneered at the distant Obito.
"The divine artifact of the Uchiha clan, today returns to its rightful owner!"
With Uchiha Yoru's domineering declaration, he announced the return of the Gunbai fan. Meanwhile, the distant Obito, with his severed arm, was utterly terrified, as the Gedo Statue roared madly, the suction force in the sky growing stronger.
"Not good!"
At this moment, Uchiha Madara, who was outside the Konoha battling Tsunade, stiffened. To everyone's shock, a coffin suddenly rose behind him, sucking him inside.
"Uchiha Obito!"
Without any warning, Uchiha Madara orchestrated this, infuriating him and causing him to roar in anger.
However, in the next moment, the coffin disappeared, and at the same time, other Reanimated bodies began to be summoned back.
"Haha, little Tsuna has grown up, this Wood Release is almost as good as grandfather's now."
Hashirama laughed exaggeratedly, while the distant Tsunade, panting heavily, watched her grandfather being sucked into the coffin, her face showing complex emotions.
"Old man, you've been dead for so many years and still can't give peace."
Though Tsunade spoke harshly, in the end, she shouted, "Grandfather! I will definitely rescue you from Obito's hands."
"Haha~ If there's a chance, grandfather will come to take you for a couple of rounds!"
Well, Hashirama, seemingly as carefree as if he were the reincarnation of Ashura, even in such a time, thought of taking his granddaughter to the casino to play a couple of rounds.
Boom~
On the battlefield, all the Reanimated bodies entered their coffins and were sealed, and those seals were released by Obito.
…
However, inside the great pit of the Death Forest, a coffin suddenly appeared. The moment Uchiha Madara was summoned, what he saw was the desperate face of Obito.
"Madara! Stop him!"
The moment Uchiha Madara turned back, he saw the mysterious purple Rinnegan of the young Uchiha Yoru.
Banshō Ten'in (Universal Pull)
Under the terrifying suction, the Gedo Statue plowed deep grooves into the earth, still unable to resist this fearsome force.
When the summoned Uchiha Madara saw this scene, his pupils shrank instantly, "Youngster! You are worthy to be the head of the Uchiha clan!"
However, the next moment, Uchiha Madara took a deep breath, and his Sharingan began to rotate, forming a series of strange and mysterious circles.
Shinra Tensei (Almighty Push)
Boom~
One is absorption, the other repulsion. In an instant, these two absolute forces collided, causing a huge roar. Taking advantage of this, Obito appeared on the Gedo Statue.
"Summoning Jutsu Release!"
With a sudden slap on the Gedo Statue, the black patterns of the summoning jutsu spread, and the next moment, a huge puff of white smoke rose as the summoning jutsu was released, and the Gedo Statue returned to its hidden place.
Obito, without any hesitation, directly left with his intangible body.
Meanwhile, the ninjutsu clash between Uchiha Yoru and Uchiha Madara caused a huge explosion.
Rinnegan vs. Rinnegan!
Banshō Ten'in vs. Shinra Tensei!
After the intense explosion, Uchiha Madara, unable to exert his full power, was somewhat damaged, but his Edo Tensei body kept regenerating.
"Uchiha Madara! You have my recognition now."
At this moment, Uchiha Yoru, floating in the sky, looked at Uchiha Madara with an admiring gaze, which made Uchiha Madara feel extremely frustrated.
This youngster is so unreasonable! He's using my words!
"Youngster! I didn't expect you to have awakened the Rinnegan!"
Despite his frustration, Uchiha Madara, as a warrior of the Warring States period, still had his dignity and looked at Uchiha Yoru with equal intensity.
The two looked at each other, feeling a sense of mutual respect.
"I didn't expect you, Uchiha Madara, to have awakened the Rinnegan. Now I understand the battle at the Valley of the End. It must have been then that you acquired the Wood Release cells."
Uchiha Yoru spoke with certainty, while Uchiha Madara replied with a confident tone, "Youngster, what makes you think it was then that I acquired the Wood Release cells, and not earlier?"
As they faced each other, Uchiha Yoru revealed a confident smile, "Because I believe that Uchiha Madara, who has awakened the Rinnegan, would not lose to Hashirama."
The next moment, Uchiha Madara's confident laughter echoed in the sky, a laughter filled with endless satisfaction, as he had never been told he could defeat Hashirama.
For so many years, he felt like a loser, especially against Hashirama, filled with frustration, always wanting to win once, and unexpectedly today, he received affirmation.
"Haha, youngster, you are outstanding. If you were born in the Warring States period, perhaps the name Hashirama, the First Hokage, would not exist."
Uchiha Madara laughed arrogantly and said, "Indeed, there would be no existence of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, and the Ninja World would not have so many wars." Uchiha Yoru nodded indifferently in response.
At this moment, Uchiha Madara felt as if he was witnessing a future he had never achieved, shaking his head lightly with a sense of resignation, "What a pity."
"But you've done well, achieving what I once failed to do, and even surpassing my expectations."
Uchiha Madara was genuinely reflective. He had once dreamed of becoming the Hokage, but his plans were thwarted by Hashirama, who became the first Hokage.
Hokage! The title alone should have indicated that it was him, Uchiha Madara, who was adept with fire, who should have been chosen.
Instead, it was Hashirama, a user of Wooden Release, who became Hokage. How ironic!
Even more ludicrous was that Hashirama, foolishly, distributed the Tailed Beasts and disagreed with Madara's idea of conquering the Ninja World through force.
Yet, Uchiha Yoru, despite his young age, had a more mature ideology and approach than Madara, and had already taken action.
He had half the Ninja World under his control and had unified the Konoha, Mist, and Sand Villages, achieving what Madara had once aspired to but never achieved.
Regrettably, Uchiha Madara shook his head as he looked at the young man before him, knowing that all this was an illusion and only the world of Tsukuyomi could bring true peace.
"After the battle at the Valley of the End, awakening the Rinnegan but not appearing in the Ninja World, that doesn't seem like you."
Uchiha Yoru, with a wise look, said to Uchiha Madara, "And with Nagato's Rinnegan and Uchiha Obito's fan, it seems clear that you, Uchiha Madara, are the mastermind behind Obito."
In just a moment, Uchiha Yoru had analyzed everything in front of Madara, who couldn't help but show appreciation.
"It seems you deduced everything after awakening the Rinnegan. A formidable mind, but sadly, you can't stop it."
Uchiha Madara was resolute, never believing anyone, not even Uchiha Yoru with his Rinnegan, could stop him.
Uchiha Yoru, with a confident smile, said, "It seems even after surviving the fight at the Valley of the End, your injuries were severe. After all, even Hashirama with his Sage body didn't last many years."
"So, you secretly transplanted the Rinnegan into Nagato. Uchiha Obito, that failure, must have been your guardian. You must have planned to eventually have Nagato use the Rinnegan to resurrect you and restart your plan to dominate the Ninja World by force."
In this moment, Uchiha Yoru seemed to have seen through everything, while Uchiha Madara, with a smile on his lips, appeared to concede the point.
Both were plotting against each other in their minds. Uchiha Yoru's self-righteous reasoning left Uchiha Madara unresponsive.
Similarly, Uchiha Yoru inwardly sneered, thinking of outsmarting the scheming Madara.
"What a pity, your plan is doomed to fail."
Uchiha Yoru said authoritatively, slowly placing Uchiha's fan behind his back, a gesture that earned an approving nod from Uchiha Madara.
"You are worthy of the fan, but whether my plan succeeds or fails is not for you to decide, and moreover!"
At this point, Uchiha Madara looked at the terrifying stone sphere that appeared above his head, revealing a hint of mockery.
"It seems I have underestimated you, youngster. You are actually aiming at the Gedo Statue and these Tailed Beasts, but your body might not be able to withstand it now."
The observant Uchiha Madara had already noticed that Uchiha Yoru was merely forcing himself to continue, with a strong backlash force inside his body, which was obviously similar to when Madara himself merged with the Hashirama cells.
However, what Uchiha Madara didn't know was that he only guessed half right. Uchiha Yoru was indeed forcing himself, and there was indeed a strong backlash force inside his body, but it was not due to Hashirama cells.
"Heh, even with the backlash, I think it's not a problem to suppress the Ashura of the Ninja World."
Underneath Uchiha Yoru's confident smile, Uchiha Madara frowned, "Youngster! I admit that your power has earned my recognition, and you even possess a strength not inferior to mine at my peak, but you are too arrogant!"
"So, Uchiha Madara, how much of your power can you exert now?"
Under Uchiha Yoru's playful smile, Uchiha Madara was deeply frustrated. His current Edo Tensei body was indeed somewhat lacking.
"Youngster, we will meet again on the battlefield!"
As the Edo Tensei body gradually dissipated with the wind, Uchiha Madara took one last deep look at this person, who, since Hashirama, was the second to ignite his fighting spirit.
