"Boom!"
A fierce collision resounded as two fists clashed.
A wave of energy surged out, and both Jigen and Madara retreated at the same time, finally ending this evenly matched physical contest.
"Kid, I acknowledge you!" Madara raised his hand, opening and closing his fist. He glanced at Kaito and said, "I'm very satisfied with the power of this body."
"As long as you're pleased, Senior," Kaito casually fanned himself. "After all, I specifically used the Gedo Statue as the main material to create it."
"Hahaha... So, it's that thing." Madara's aura intensified, his killing intent soaring into the sky. "It truly is something good."
Jigen glanced at Madara with a hint of surprise, examining him. "To think you could create a body using the God Tree. I underestimated you, Onmyoji."
"By the way, who is this guy?" Madara tossed his sword to Izuna. "There aren't many powerful individuals like him."
"What's going on?" Izuna caught the blade, glaring at Kaito in shock. "Didn't you explain everything to my brother beforehand?"
"There wasn't enough time." Kaito looked slightly embarrassed. "I only finished that possession puppet late last night."
"So, you planned today's operation days ago?" Izuna's gaze was filled with disdain.
Kaito raised his fan to cover his face, forcing an explanation: "I trusted myself to complete everything as planned."
"Hmph!" Izuna sneered and explained to Madara.
"Brother, that man is Otsutsuki Isshiki, from the same clan as Kaguya. A thousand years ago, he was killed by her, and his consciousness attached itself to the body of this monk. Now, the dominant mind is Isshiki!"
"I see."
Madara nodded, then looked at Jigen and asked, "Aren't you going to say anything?"
"That sort of thing doesn't matter." Jigen smiled indifferently. "I will soon achieve complete resurrection, and the world will be mine."
"I understand the situation well enough," Madara chuckled. "I'm quite interested in this Otsutsuki clan. Let's begin with you!"
"Sage Art!" Madara quickly made hand seals. "Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!"
A massive fireball, as tall as several people, shot from his mouth, distorting the surrounding air with its intense heat.
Jigen couldn't absorb Sage Chakra and had no choice but to leap into the air to dodge it.
Madara raised his head, making more hand seals.
"Sage Art: Dragon Flame Release Song Technique!" Four fire dragons soared into the sky, crossing and weaving in the air, surrounding Jigen in an instant.
Jigen shrank his body again, disappearing within the swirling flames.
"An interesting ability!" Madara grinned, his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan spinning rapidly, tracking Jigen's possible locations.
The sound of something cutting through the air rang out, and Madara turned. Jigen had suddenly appeared above him, raising his right hand, launching numerous black stakes from his palm.
"That's Yin-Yang Release!"
Madara agilely dodged, his gaze fixed on the sky.
"Kid! You didn't prepare a proper weapon for my brother!" Izuna grumbled in dissatisfaction.
"Huh?" Kaito looked at him helplessly. "What weapon? A Uchiha fan?"
"Of course! The Uchiha fan is my brother's weapon!" Izuna replied matter-of-factly.
"I know, but the fan is with the blood puppet." Kaito retracted his fan. "In that case, I'll make one right now!"
He once again directed Ryūmyaku Vein chains toward Jigen, interrupting his attack.
The barrage of black stakes falling from the sky finally ceased.
On the other side, Madara wasn't pleased and glared at Kaito. "Hey! Kid! Don't interfere in my battle!"
Kaito knelt on one knee, slapping his hands on the ground.
"Perhaps you still lack a suitable weapon?"
The energy from Ryūmyaku condensed, and a golden, crystal-clear Uchiha fan emerged from the ground in front of Madara, its handle connected to a chain and sickle.
"Not bad!" Madara grabbed the fan's handle, lifting the giant weapon and giving it a few swings. "Good job, kid."
"Haha, no need to be so polite."
Kaito stood up, letting out an awkward laugh, sneaking a glance at Izuna.
"As long as you're satisfied."
Izuna still wasn't fully pleased. "That thing looks fragile, doesn't it?"
"Don't worry." Kaito sighed. "It's condensed from Ryūmyaku energy, harder than steel."
"Enough!" Madara gripped both the fan's handle and the sickle. "Withdraw your chains, kid."
"Fine, fine." Kaito commanded Ryūmyaku chains to retract.
"It's one thing after another. So, I just need to kill you, Onmyoji," Jigen's voice suddenly echoed, and his figure appeared right in front of Kaito .
He thrust a black rod toward Kaito's chest.
A metallic sound rang out.
A golden, transparent barrier cracked but barely managed to block Jigen's black rod.
"Sorry, but I wasn't unprepared." Kaito smiled at him. "Even if you kill me, they won't disappear."
"Your opponent is me!"
Madara grabbed the chain on the fan's handle and hurled the sickle forward.
Jigen spun around, hooking the sickle with his black rod. He grabbed the chain with one hand and forcefully pulled it in his direction.
The others seized the opportunity to retreat quickly to the edge of the formation.
"Go!"
While retreating, Kaito threw a handful of talismans, which lit up like small glowing birds, forming a neat formation in the air, sticking to Jigen.
"Tch!" Jigen immediately let go of the chain and floated upward to avoid the talismans.
However, the talismans followed him into the sky. Jigen zigzagged through the air, but the talismans relentlessly pursued him.
"Hey! I told you, don't interfere in my fight!" Madara glared at Kaito in displeasure.
"He attacked first!" Kaito defended himself, pointing at Jigen in the air.
"Hmph!" Jigen shot more black rods from his hand, knocking down all the pursuing talismans.
By this time, Madara had leaped from the ground like a cannonball, approaching Jigen with his fan and sickle.
The two resumed their close combat once again.
However, in an aerial battle, Jigen, with his ability to float, gained the upper hand. He moved rapidly, attacking Madara from all directions with swift strikes.
"Senior! You can use natural energy to fly too!" Kaito suddenly shouted. "You can definitely do it!"
"Hey! That's too vague of an explanation!" Izuna glared at him. "That's something none of us could achieve. Even you took a long time to master it, right?"
"Well... Senior is a genius!" Kaito smiled.
In the air, while constantly blocking Jigen's attacks, Madara closed his eyes. The blue Sage Art markings on his face rapidly spread across his entire body.
"Of course, I can do it. I am Uchiha Madara!!" He suddenly opened his eyes, his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan spinning. A powerful aura erupted from him, creating shockwaves that pushed Jigen away.
Then, his body stopped falling, floating steadily in the air.
"Come on!" He pointed his massive fan at Jigen. "Let's begin a new round of slaughter!"
