Defeating Madara Uchiha

They believed this was what a battle between gods was all about!

Nothing, not even the Nine-Tails or any other natural disaster, could compare to the intensity of the aftershocks from the collision between these two.

The sheer force of the Four Red Yang Formation, created by the True Several Thousand Hands as the first line of defense, combined with the Wood Clone of Hashirama Senju and the Shadow Clone the Second Hokage, resulted in half the power of the Four Red Yang Formation, which ultimately protected Konoha.

Everything around Konoha has been completely leveled, leaving only a vast wasteland. Mountains have crumbled, rivers have been silted up, turning the once beautiful surroundings into a barren wasteland.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly, a tearing sound came, and everyone looked over, their eyes widening and their mouths agape as if they could stuff an apple into them.

What did they see?

With a single slash, they could cleave several large swathes of land. The giant they believed could only be controlled by gods— the Perfect Susanoo —was actually split in two from head to toe by the light emitted by Ye Liangnai!

The remaining light, undiminished in its Susanoo, creating a long and wide canyon amidst a deafening rumble. It also somehow connected with a water source, turning the area below the canyon into a river.

If Itachi Uchiha were here, he would realize that the starting point of this canyon is near the Uchiha Clan home Naka Shrine. As for the river below the canyon, isn't it the Naka River where his brother Shisui Uchiha, committed suicide?

Of course, that's a story for another time!

At this moment, Madara Uchiha landed heavily, panting heavily. His entire right shoulder was a bloody mess, with bare white bones exposed in the air, a truly gruesome sight.

"How about it, Madara Uchiha, do you want to continue?" Ye Liangnai asked, also panting.

Storm Release: Storm Light Fang, his strongest single-target defense-breaking technique.

Theoretically speaking, apart from those at the Six Paths level who can use Yin-Yang Release to block it, no one else can.

Even the Ten-Tails, he could cut in half with a single move.

True Several Thousand Hands wouldn't be enough!

Of course, he developed this move specifically to deal with enemies outside the Shinobi World.

That is, the Otsutsuki Clan!

However, such strong attack power also means extremely high consumption and control.

To master this move, he transformed a desolate, mountainous region in the Land of Water into a plain, a process that took him three months to complete.

This is extremely rare for someone who can master most Ninjutsu in an instant, which shows how difficult this move is.

Of course, its power did not disappoint Ye Liangnai.

It just consumed too much energy. Even with Ye Liangnai 'Chakra, which is comparable to that of the Nine-Tails, he can only release it four times!

"Little brat..."

Madara Uchiha looked at Ye Liangnai standing on the Storm Dragon, his face quite gloomy and his eyes full of sharpness.

But just as he was about to continue fighting, a voice rang out rapidly. "Stop!!!"

And then a gigantic hand that blotted out the Madara Uchiha and Ye Liangnai, separating them!

Ye Liangnai couldn't help but look, and Hashirama Senju!

He remained in Sage Mode, standing imposingly atop True Several Thousand Hands, his gaze fixed intently on Ye Liangnai, and said, "If you keep fighting, Konoha will be destroyed by you! Of course, if you're still not satisfied, then I'll be your opponent!"

"Then forget it, it's not worth fighting you! I'm not confident that after a fierce battle with Madara Uchiha, I can face an even stronger Hashirama Senju! Besides, this battle was initiated by Madara Uchiha, I was just responding passively!"

Ye Liangnai certainly didn't want to fight Hashirama Senju, a man even stronger than Madara Uchiha.

He had already expended a lot of Chakra fighting Madara Uchiha, and was no match for Hashirama Senju, a man with a bug-like healing ability without hand seals.

Think about it, he's injured, really injured!

Hashirama Senju is injured, but he'll recover in a few seconds! How do we fight him?

He was able to suppress Madara Uchiha and make Madara Uchiha so miserable because he had not reached his strongest state.

Perfect Susanoo the Nine-Tails and transformed into the Armored Susanoo, that is Madara Uchiha's peak state, capable of fighting the True Several Thousand Hands - Buddha's Blossom to a standstill!

Even if Madara Uchiha were to enter his Armored Susanoo, he would have to pay a heavy price to defeat Madara Uchiha.

But Hashirama Senju in front of me is different. With Sage Mode and True Several Thousand Hands, this is his peak. Even if Ye Liangnai were at her peak, she might not be able to gain the upper hand. At most, they would be evenly matched!

Not to mention his current state!

Moreover, he felt that if the fight continued, he would most likely be subjected to a mixed doubles attack by Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju!

Despite Madara Uchiha leaving Konoha and becoming missing-nin, his bond with Hashirama Senju was not completely severed.

If the war were to continue, Hashirama Senju, who did not want Konoha to suffer any damage, would most likely invite Madara Uchiha extremely displeased, to capture him, the "external enemy," first, and then resolve the matter between the two of them.

"Well then, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now! I originally planned to have a good time in Konoha, but it turned out like this, which is really annoying!"

Ye Liangnai dispelled the Storm Dragon and landed on the ground, hands in her sleeves, a harmless smile on her lips, saying, "Then I won't disturb your reminiscing any longer!"

Then he waved his hand towards Konoha, and immediately a dark figure rushed over.

Hashirama Senju looked closely and was surprised to see that it was a young woman!

It was none other than Reiko!

"I never knew you were so powerful, brother! This is truly an eye-opener! A wave of your hand can cause mountains to crumble and the earth to split; such power is truly enviable!"

Reiko looked at Ye Liangnai with an expression of admiration.

"Thank goodness, they both have that skill! And there's half a Konoha too!"

Ye Liangnai pointed to Madara Uchiha on Hashirama Senju 'Gundam' True Several Thousand Hands and Madara Uchiha lying on the ground beside him, and said.

As for the half of Konoha he mentioned, he was referring to Tobirama Senju!

"Hey, is that silver-haired guy that strong? I didn't realize!"

Upon hearing this, Reiko's eyes widened in shock, and she seemed somewhat incredulous.

"Of course he's strong! He's the Ninja World's Number One Divine Speed, Master of Forbidden Jutsu, and his Water Release are unparalleled. He's incredibly powerful and ranks among the top in the entire Shinobi World!"

Ye Liangnai tapped her on the head and said speechlessly.

Needless to say, Tobirama Senju was strong; he wasn't quite at the Kage Level, but he was just a hair's breadth away!

"Stop!"

At that moment, Madara Uchiha's voice came from behind Ye Liangnai. Ye Liangnai immediately stopped and asked without turning her head, "Mr. Madara Uchiha, do you still want to continue fighting? Hashirama, don't say I'm not giving you face. If Madara Uchiha insists on continuing the fight, then I can only accompany you!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Madara Uchiha sneered, "Kid, don't bring Hashirama! I stopped you just to tell you that I will repay this debt to you tenfold in the future. You just wait!"

After saying that, he disappeared into the night sky without looking back.
