Senju Susanoo? / I'll Be Willful This Once

Even if Hagoromo Otsutsuki acknowledges him and gets the other Tailed Beasts to help him, he probably still wouldn't be able to defeat Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Or rather, Uchiha Shingen's ability to reach this point already amazed Hagoromo Otsutsuki, but he had no expectations for what would happen next.

The power of parents is not necessarily fully inherited by their children. This was true for him and his younger brother, Hamura Otsutsuki, as well as for his two children.

Like Indra, what Hagoromo Otsutsuki inherited was the same as what Indra inherited from him.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki inherited Chakra and spiritual power from his mother, thus he was born with Chakra and the Rinnegan.

Because he was born with Chakra and did not need to refine Chakra like later generations, he had ample time and resources to deduce the formation principle of Chakra.

The same thing happened to Indra when his first child, Indra, was born.

Indra inherited his Chakra and spiritual power from him, and was the only one to inherit his Chakra genes, making him regarded by everyone as an "excellent older brother".

His naturally powerful Chakra and spirit combined to Sharingan, a Dōjutsu. Because he inherited a portion of the Chakra power from Hagoromo Otsutsuki, he also possesses the ability to resonate with Hagoromo Otsutsuki's Chakra.

Ashura, who inherited his life force and physical energy, did not have such abilities. Because of this, Ashura needed to refine his Chakra later in life, just like an ordinary person, thus becoming a "useless younger brother".

From the very beginning, only Indra had the opportunity to draw upon Hagoromo Otsutsuki's Chakra and activate the Rinnegan. Although Indra did not achieve this in his lifetime, it was only after Uchiha Madara that he succeeded.

However, as expected of someone who inherited his Chakra genes, even without Indra's Chakra, he still managed to gain his current power through other means.

After all, it's the Chakra of the God Tree. Even though it's a fragment, theoretically it's of higher quality than what he inherited from his mother.

"Matatabi," Hagoromo Otsutsuki said, "Can you confirm that the reincarnated person... no, Uchiha Shingen's attitude towards you is honest? Does he not believe that power is everything?"

"As for power, Shingen certainly values it highly." Matatabi recalled his years of interaction with Uchiha Shingen, "But he also values his comrades. To this day, he has never forced me to use my Chakra without my consent."

"Oh? He actually respects your opinion?" Hagoromo Otsutsuki asked curiously.

Based on the description of the Two-Tails, Uchiha Shingen's image has indeed changed somewhat.

He devoted most of his energy to the Pure Land and his son's Chakra reincarnation, and the little he had left was to observe the movements of the Tailed Beasts. He could not and did not have the energy to focus too much on observing others.

"Yes," the Matatabi said happily, "They really respect me."

"Impossible, he's lying to the Tailed Beasts!" Gyuki immediately interjected, "The moment you let your guard down, that's when he'll control you."

"That's right," Kurama chimed in. "The first time I met him, he beat me to a pulp and even helped others seal me away. He definitely has ulterior motives!"

As it spoke, it secretly transferred more Chakra from its original body to the other side.

With so little Chakra, how could that be enough? Your Uchiha Clan Ninjutsu are all incredibly Chakra; are you not planning to use Ninjutsu since you're pulling so slowly?

Kurama sneered inwardly.

Once Uchiha Shingen has tasted the sweetness of success this time, that's when his Kurama uncle will be able to raise prices on the spot!

A forest alone isn't enough; we need at least a mountain as well.

However, while Kurama's actions could fool Shukaku, Son Goku, Kokuō, and Saiken, they could not fool Matatabi, Gyuki, and Chomei.

Everyone logs in to the same room and plays the same game. How can we hide it?

The Gyuki stared at the Kurama in disbelief.

Chomei said, "You've reminded me," and then began to do the same thing.

Matatabi traitor simply released the dragging of Kurama and Chomei's Chakra and went all out to drag the Gyuki away.

The ship of friendship can capsize in an instant.

The Gyuki was astonished to find himself the only crew member; his companions had already jumped into the water in a rush.

Not only did they dive, but their diving companions also pulled at their own life jackets.

The enraged Gyuki took off its "life jacket" and plunged headfirst into the "water" with even greater decisiveness.

It's Gyuki, even if it's a gift, it has to be the most attractive one!

Once it occupies a favorable position, it can lull Uchiha Shingen into a false sense of security, and then one day secretly kill him.

This is the right way for Tailed Beasts and humans to coexist!

Chapter 44 Senju Clan- Susanoo?

At the Valley of the End, Uchiha Shingen Uchiha Madara, suddenly sensed a change in the amount of Chakra input from the Nine-Tails, Eight-Tails, and Seven-Tails.

Suddenly, the food became "plenty and plentiful," Uchiha Shingen, overjoyed, accepted it all.

By this time, his battle with Uchiha Madara had been going on for quite some time.

To be precise, the Valley of the End no longer exists.

Uchiha Madara's Susanoo split mountains in two with a single slash.

Which version of the Valley of the End can withstand this kind of turmoil?

But you can't really Uchiha Madara.

Because Uchiha Shingen's Susanoo is not very small now, and he can't make up for it with his Chakra when his eye power is insufficient, and what he is making up is the Chakra of Tailed Beasts.

This combination led to a pleasant surprise.

As the four Tailed Beasts relentlessly charged, Uchiha Shingen's Susanoo displayed a new form never before seen in the history of the Uchiha Clan.

Boom--!

Intense light shone from the unrecognizable earth, and shockwaves swept across the land once again.

At this moment, the area where the two were fighting was covered by a thick layer of scales, which, due to their sheer volume, formed a large fog-like mass.

Under the impact of the shockwave, the misty scales were physically pushed away, and Uchiha Shingen's Susanoo was revealed.

This is the ability of the Seven-Tails, Chomei, to create scales with Chakra, thereby interfering with the enemy's perception and making himself invisible.

This is the surprise that Uchiha Shingen achieved by using the Tailed Beast Chakra to create Susanoo.

Once the Tailed Beast Chakra reaches a certain level, his Susanoo be able to use the abilities of these Tailed Beasts.

Just like Naruto Uzumaki in the original timeline used the Rasengan to unleash the power of the Tailed Beasts.

However, compared to Naruto Uzumaki power is primarily destructive, Uchiha Shingen's Susanoo is more functional.

But this does not mean he is without destructive power.

The moment Uchiha Shingen revealed himself, Uchiha Madara's Susanoo attacked with a sword.

As a complete form, Uchiha Madara's Susanoo used in the air, on land, and in the sea, and can perfectly amplify all his Ninjutsu.

The Chakra sword slashed out from mid-air, generating wind pressure that was on par with a large-scale Wind Release.

Fortunately, with the support of the Tailed Beast Chakra, Uchiha Shingen's Susanoo had grown much larger, making him qualified to compete with Uchiha Madara.

Uchiha Madara's Susanoo closed the distance in the blink of an eye, slashing down at Uchiha Shingen with a Kesa Slash.

If we consider the original size of his Susanoo, Uchiha Madara wouldn't be called a slash, but a slap.

Using the same Totsuka Chakra technique to condense a Totsuka Blade sword, Uchiha Shingen clashed swords with Uchiha Madara in a left-to-upward slashing motion.

In the pure clash of Chakra, the collision of two behemoths once again brought irreversible changes to the surrounding terrain.

A new ravine formed naturally, Susanoo, through the transfer of power, eroded away a patch of forest.

In terms of physical strength, Uchiha Madara, who charged in from the air, had a significant advantage, while Uchiha Shingen was Susanoo to retreat.

In Uchiha Madara's eyes, the Chakra that constituted the Susanoo in front of him had changed, and its color had turned purple, as if it were burning with flames, with large swathes of fireballs separating from its body.

Here we go again, this doesn't look like Ninjutsu at all.

It looks exactly like how those Tailed Beasts use Chakra.

As a clan that specializes in tormenting Tailed Beasts, the Uchiha Clan has dealt with all of them. Although Uchiha Madara only fought the Nine-Tails Tailed Beasts, he also knew a little about the abilities of the other Tailed Beasts, including how they used Chakra.

The next moment, fireballs rained down on him.

To be fair, it doesn't hurt as much as Senju Hashirama's Great Buddha attack, but the attack intervals are shorter.

The earth trembled, and boundless flames burned everything around them to ashes.

At first, a dense barrage of fireballs came from the front, then they came from all directions, each hit causing a massive explosion.

One was a single, decisive strike that destroyed a mountain; the other was a variety of creative methods. That's how the Valley of the End was destroyed.

Today, it is more appropriate to call it a basin.

[This kid has developed a new approach to utilizing the power of the Tailed Beasts.]

Uchiha Madara, enduring the opponent's attacks, thought to himself.

It was truly refreshing for him.

This Uchiha Shingen is really promising! He shouldn't have chosen Obito in the first place; he should have chosen this guy instead!

The thick smoke from the burning flames completely obscured the surroundings, but in Uchiha Madara's Chakra perception, the massive Chakra source in front of him had changed once again.

This time, however, it was Chakra that Uchiha Madara was familiar with.

It's the Nine-Tails 'Chakra!

This surprised Uchiha Madara.

The Chakra sword sliced through the thick smoke, pointing directly at Uchiha Madara's Susanoo's neck.

[This swordsmanship isn't up to the task of beheading.]

Uchiha Madara gave a wry smile.

The complete form of Ninjutsu is an extension of the user's body; Susanoo as Ninjutsu can be used, Taijutsu can too.

He easily deflected the attack with his swordsmanship.

However, when the thick smoke cleared, what appeared before him was... Senju Clan- Susanoo?

Before them, Uchiha Shingen's Susanoo completely changed.

Its body was covered with patterns unique to immortal Senjutsu, and hundreds of golden hands extended from its back.

In Uchiha Madara's view, although this did not reach the level of Senju Hashirama's Sage Art: Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands Technique, it was indeed beginning to come close.

Only...

How did you, an Uchiha Clan, manage to create such a strong Senju Clan smell?

With this skill, Uchiha Madara was certain that in the Ninja World, apart from himself and Hashirama, no one could defeat Uchiha Shingen.

"Clan Chief Madara," Uchiha Shingen suddenly spoke up, "This is my strongest attack right now. Why don't you try taking it head-on?"

Of course I have to try it!

Uchiha Madara uttered only one word. "Come!"

Uchiha Shingen's Susanoo moved forward, and Uchiha Madara on the opposite side also manipulated his Susanoo make the same movement.

When the two Susanoo reached a point where they could face each other and unleash a barrage of attacks, they attacked simultaneously.

Hundreds of golden fists were unleashed with a deafening roar.

Uchiha Madara, on the other hand, drew his Susanoo's two swords, wielding the dual-sword style.

He fully demonstrated what it means to be proficient in all kinds of martial arts, wielding the two knives with dazzling skill.

However, Uchiha Shingen's Susanoo punches were indeed quite numerous.

After losing more than a dozen punches, a powerful blow finally landed on Uchiha Madara Susanoo's face.

Not slapping someone in the face is disrespectful to your opponent.

As the saying goes, once is never enough, and this punch seemed to foreshadow that more punches broke through Uchiha Madara net and landed on his Susanoo.

Chapter 45 I'll Be Willful Just This Once

To be fair, Uchiha Shingen was learning from Senju Hashirama.

As the only man who could stand behind Uchiha Madara, Senju Hashirama's Sage Art: Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands: Top Transformed Buddha was his greatest source of damage.

Faced with this attack, Uchiha Madara's full-power Complete Susanoo was no match for it at all; it could be smashed to pieces, and Tailed Beasts was just a matter of one hand.

As for the others, there's no need to say more.

The Tree World, the Flower Tree World, and the Wooden Man—none of those are what Senju Hashirama relies on as the gatekeeper of the Six Paths level.

These moves would be pretty impressive by today's standards, but back then, there were too many skilled players, and those moves weren't enough to dominate the scene.
