At this very moment!

Two people who looked almost exactly alike had met.

The two of them...

Both had pale-purple eyes,

and they stared at each other from a considerable distance.

"Ha..."

"So it really is true."

"It really is... an unexpected special existence, isn't it?"

The real Uchiha Madara folded his arms before him and stared through his Rinnegan at the figure in the distance who looked almost exactly like him.

The two of them were nearly identical—even their eyes were the same:

Rinnegan!!

At this moment,

Chen Yiban opened his Rinnegan and saw the other man appear atop the highest steel building, also with a pair of Rinnegan...

That basically confirmed what had happened earlier!

But this really was unexpected!

He had never imagined that the two of them would meet under circumstances like these.

"Madara...!"

At that moment, Konan, who did not understand the situation, charged at Chen Yiban like someone prepared to die and unleashed countless paper explosive tags.

Chen Yiban felt helpless. With a casual Shinra Tensei...

He directly blasted all the paper explosive tags away!

At the same time, he sent Konan flying. She fell onto the ground not far away.

"Stupid woman, the person over there isn't me." Chen Yiban slowly lowered the hand with which he had used Shinra Tensei and spoke.

"That is... the teacher's clone?" Sasuke Uchiha, who had been hiding to the side, looked at the two identical people in astonishment.

He truly had not expected that they were actually two different people!

At this moment:

"Shinra Tensei?"

Uchiha Madara saw Chen Yiban use Shinra Tensei to blast Konan away, and his eyes shifted slightly.

"Looks like the other party's Rinnegan isn't fake!"

"This is getting interesting!"

"Black Zetsu, that guy over there is the one, right? You said he could even use [Limbo: Border Jail]?"

He turned around and glanced behind him.

"Yes, Lord Madara. Even now, I still can't understand where exactly he came from!" Black Zetsu immediately stepped forward and reported.

"Indeed... incredible!" Uchiha Madara continued to stare across the distance at Chen Yiban, who also possessed the Rinnegan, his arms folded.

Then:

"It doesn't matter. After we capture him, we should be able to question him properly."

"And his Rinnegan belongs to me, Madara!!"

Uchiha Madara slowly formed Hand Seals, a feral grin spreading across his face.

"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!!"

The next second, the technique was released.

Instantly,

Crack-crack-crack—

Countless enormous tree roots burst from the ground like gigantic serpents, drilling upward in a frenzy.

Then, within Amegakure, they surged toward Chen Yiban!

"Nani..." Konan and Sasuke Uchiha were both utterly shocked.

Especially the still-young Uchiha Sasuke. As he watched the Wood Style, enormous in both range and scale, rush toward them at terrifying speed...

Uchiha Sasuke was so stunned that fear welled up inside him, and he began retreating several steps without realizing it.

Under the assault of the Wood Style, which was immense in both size and range, the steel buildings throughout Amegakure were almost completely destroyed.

No one knew how many ninjas and civilians had died or been injured in the process.

"Run... run!!"

Countless ninjas and civilians in Amegakure fled in panic, running frantically in the direction opposite Uchiha Madara's Wood Style.

Well, in other words, they were running straight toward Chen Yiban!

However,

they had not expected that:

"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!!"

Chen Yiban used the same technique.

Boom-crack-crack-crack—

Once again, countless enormous Wood Style growths burst from the earth around Chen Yiban.

Then they surged forward to meet the attack!

Rain Ninja: "..."

They despaired!

However, just as they closed their eyes and waited for death:

They discovered that Chen Yiban's Wood Style had gone around them!

Then it collided with Uchiha Madara's Wood Style on the other side.

Then:

Boom-crack-crack-crack—

They clashed head-on!

Neither side gave an inch!

No matter how tough the countless Wood Style growths were, they continued to shatter under the mutual assault.

But,

it was Uchiha Madara's Wood Style that shattered in greater numbers.

Chen Yiban's Wood Style was superior!

"Hm?" On top of the building, Uchiha Madara furrowed his brows slightly.

Boom—!!

In the end, Chen Yiban's Wood Style defeated Uchiha Madara's.

It immediately charged toward Uchiha Madara atop the steel building!

"Heh!" Uchiha Madara opened his Rinnegan and let out a vicious laugh.

Whoosh—

He leaped straight into the air!

In the end, he actually used Chen Yiban's Wood Style as a foothold, vaulting repeatedly along the enormous trees as he charged toward Chen Yiban.

Throughout it all, Uchiha Madara moved with incredible speed and agility. The countless enormous branches of the Wood Style could not touch him at all!

Seeing this,

Chen Yiban immediately stopped using "Wood Style," and then:

Whoosh—

He also leaped into the air to meet his opponent.

"Lord Madara!" Just then, Black Zetsu threw two objects toward Uchiha Madara as he charged forward.

Uchiha Madara caught them casually without breaking stride.

They were his two former weapons: the Uchiha Gunbai! The Asura Scythe!!

At once, the smile on Uchiha Madara's face deepened by another degree or two.

"Fake!"

"How far can you dance?"

Uchiha Madara held his two iconic weapons.

In the blink of an eye, he was practically face-to-face with Chen Yiban, who had taken the initiative to meet him in battle!

Uchiha Madara swung the Uchiha Gunbai and Asura Scythe in his hands forward at the same time:

Clang—!!

The weapons met with a deafening metallic crash.

"Hm?"

In the next instant, Uchiha Madara saw through his Rinnegan...

Chen Yiban was holding an Uchiha Gunbai and an Asura Scythe too!!

They were almost completely identical!!

"How is that possible..."

At this moment, even Uchiha Madara himself was stunned.

Then he recovered:

Clang-clang-clang-clang-clang-clang—

Their weapons blurred as they hacked at each other furiously.

Identical weapons clashed again and again.

"Shameless fake!"

Gradually, Uchiha Madara angrily realized... damn it, this fake in front of him seemed to possess even greater strength than he did.

"Limbo: Border Jail!!"

At this moment, Uchiha Madara angrily released the shadows of Limbo to aid him.

Seeing this, Chen Yiban also shouted, "Limbo: Border Jail!!"

At once,

the space between the enormous Wood Style trees became lively.

Limbo versus Limbo!

Uchiha Madara versus Chen Yiban!!

All the spectators in Amegakure who lacked the Rinnegan could only see two identical people hacking wildly at each other.

But Chen Yiban and Uchiha Madara could both use their Rinnegan to see during the battle:

Their own Limbo and the other's Limbo, as well as themselves and their opponent...

Everything was locked in an intense battle!!

"Complete Body Susanoo!!"

Uchiha Madara transformed his Rinnegan into Sharingan and unleashed Susanoo again.

Chen Yiban responded with the same technique.

Boom—!!

Once again, the two gigantic [Complete Body Susanoo] punched each other.

Then Uchiha Madara's Susanoo was forced back five steps!

Chen Yiban's Susanoo was forced back only two!

"You... you bastard!!"

Uchiha Madara seemed a little... panicked?

Uchiha Madara: Damn it, whatever I use, you use too. Fine, I can accept that. But why is yours even stronger than mine?!!

Konan, Sasuke Uchiha, and everyone in Amegakure: What... what is going on here? Are they playing by fighting themselves?
