Isshiki, What Are You Running From?

"Susanoo could actually be used like this? Madara's descendants are pretty impressive!"

Hashirama couldn't help praising them as he watched the double-layered Susanoo armor encasing him.

He hadn't expected Susanoo to be combined like this.

What a shame! If he'd known earlier, he could've had Madara ride on his shoulders and try it out. That would've felt amazing!

Hashirama's praise did nothing to stop Isshiki's attack.

On Itachi and Shisui's side, their two Susanoo had only just finished nesting together when Isshiki's attack arrived.

Another kick at an utterly unparalleled speed!

It was so fast that space itself seemed to wail under the pressure.

Impure World Itachi controlled Susanoo's four arms and raised the Divine Artifact Yata Mirror. They all put their strength into holding it up, blocking the attack.

It turned into a shower of red Spirit Tool fragments that rained down.

Too strong!

Isshiki's physical strength was comparable to Might Emperor's Eight Gates stats. He was simply unmatched.

They would've been crucial in the Fourth Great Ninja War.

But against Isshiki, who was unleashing his full power, they still fell far short. He was
