"No, they have no signs of life."
Nagato's Rinnegan saw it more clearly, "It's a corpse... transformed into a puppet."
Before they finished speaking, the puppets' eyes flashed red, their bodies twisted and accelerated in a way that violated the laws of physics, and they rushed towards the four people. They did not use ninjutsu, but directly waved their arm bones that had been transformed into sharp blades, or sprayed out a highly corrosive green liquid from their mouths.
"Bastard!" Naruto yelled angrily. These people who should have rested in peace were transformed into such monsters after their death for others to drive. He dodged a bone blade sideways and punched a puppet out, but the puppet hit the wall, and the scattered body reassembled and rushed at him again.
"Physical attacks have little effect. Their cores are protected." Sasuke's Kusanagi Sword cut off half of a puppet's body, but the opponent still showed no signs of stopping.
"Banshō Ten'in!"
Nagato stretched out his hand and sucked several puppets in front of him. A Black Rod was condensed in the palm of his other hand and stabbed accurately into the chest of one of the puppets. The moment Black Rod penetrated, the puppet trembled suddenly, the red light in its eyes went out, and it completely collapsed.
"Weak spot found! Energy Core in the chest!" Nagato shouted.
The battle instantly became clear. Naruto no longer uses large-scale ninjutsu, but condenses small Nine-Tails Chakra Scalpel, each shot penetrated the puppet's chest accurately. Sasuke's Chidori Sharp Spear turned into streaks of lightning, nailing each puppet to the wall. Konan's Paper Shards turned into countless small paper swords, and penetrated into the puppet's defense gaps from tricky angles.
The battle ended quickly, and dozens of puppets were turned into real wrecks.
"Let's go, we can't delay any longer." Sasuke sheathed his sword.
Naruto looked at the wreckage on the ground and clenched his fists. The actions of the guy who called himself "Shadow" had completely touched his bottom line.
However, just as they were about to move forward, the passage ahead suddenly began to twist and deform violently. The originally straight corridor turned into a spiral staircase spiraling downwards with no bottom. On the surrounding walls, murals began to light up.
What is depicted on the mural is Valley of the End, Konoha, Amegakure... It is the scene that each of them is most familiar with and least willing to recall.
"Illusion?" Naruto was stunned.
"No, it's more troublesome than illusion." Sasuke's Rinnegan turned, and he saw that the energy structure that made up this space was being rewritten in real time, "He moved the battlefield into our memory."
At the end of the spiral staircase, there is not a solid ground, but a surging waterfall and rapid river.
Huge stone statues face each other across the waterfall. One is a man with long hair and a battle armor, and the other is a man with a solemn expression carrying a huge scroll.
Valley of the End.
This place carries too much meaning for Naruto and Sasuke. The fracture of Bond and the fateful showdown are all staged here.
At this moment, at the feet of the two huge stone statues, two figures were standing.
One is a man wearing a dark red battle armor, holding a fire Gunbai and a huge scythe. His long black hair is wildly spread, and the scarlet Sharingan is slowly turning into a weird Mangekyo pattern.
Uchiha Madara.
The other one is a man wearing Hokage Sacred Robe, with his arms folded across his chest and a gentle expression. He looks ordinary, but he contains Life Energy as unfathomable as the sea.
Senju Hashirama.
"This is..." Naruto looked at the two figures and was a little distracted for a moment. Although it was just an image, the aura of dominating the world and the openness to embrace all rivers were terrifyingly real.
"A ghost constructed from combat data extracted from the "Core"."
Sasuke's voice was cold, and the fragment in his hand was the source of all this.
"Kage is using our ninja history as a guard to stop us."
Nagato's face also became extremely ugly. Looking at the figure of Uchiha Madara, he seemed to see the Masked Man who had induced him to entrust Rinnegan to him. Although they were not the same person, the source of the power was the same.
"It seems that if we don't defeat them, we won't be able to survive." Nagato took a step forward, and Rinnegan locked the data spot.
"No." Sasuke stopped him, "Leave these two to us."
His eyes turned to Naruto, who happened to be looking at him. Needless to say, a long-lost tacit understanding was rekindled between the two. This is their fate, and it should be ended by them.
"Konan, Nagato, you are responsible for guarding the surroundings." Sasuke pulled out Kusanagi Sword, "These things are just appetizers, they will shadow the real killer move and may appear at any time."
"Got it." Konan's hands Hand Seals, and countless Paper Shards gathered behind her to form a pair of huge angel wings, lifting her into the air, monitoring the entire space condescendingly. Nagato stood there, Six Paths Power ready to attack, prepared for any surprise attack.
"Then, I'm going to do it!" Naruto was full of fighting spirit. The golden Nine-Tails Chakra Cloak instantly covered his body, and the orange eye shadow in his eyes became more and more vivid.
The data on the opposite side, Hashirama, seemed to feel his fighting spirit, a smile appeared on his gentle face, and he clapped his hands.
"Xianfa·Wood Release·True Thousand Hands!"
There is no hesitation at all, no testing at all, the starting move is the strongest move.
The entire copy space of Valley of the End shook violently, and a huge wooden Buddha, a hundred times larger than the stone statue, rose from the ground. Behind the wooden Buddha were thousands of huge arms, covering the sky and the sun. The sense of oppression alone was enough to make ordinary ninjas lose the will to fight.
"Hey, hey, hey! Are you going to be so big right from the start?!" Naruto screamed strangely, but his movements were not slow at all. He raised his hands high, and Chakra from Nine-Tails poured out crazily, and under his control, they condensed into a golden giant fox that was also upright.
"Ho--!"
The complete Nine-Tails model looks up to the sky and roars, with nine huge tails dancing wildly behind it, competing against the Senju wooden Buddha.
On the other side, Sasuke also faced the data spot.
"Susanoo!"
Purple energy soared into the sky, instantly evolving from a skeleton form into a complete body wearing armor and holding two swords. However, the data spot on the opposite side just glanced at him contemptuously, and also erupted into a deeper and larger blue Chakra.
His Susanoo is taller than Sasuke. It has two wings on its back and holds four huge swords in its hands, which is full of destructive beauty.
"Kid, your Susanoo is not enough." Data Spot's voice was cold and devoid of any emotion. It was completely a simulation of Data.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The duel between the four behemoths began in an instant.
