Ōtsutsuki Hishiki was a burly man with half his face hidden beneath a cloak. His exposed right eye was an azure Tenseigan.
Within Manifest World Soul, Hashirama Senju had suppressed Hishiki with Sage Art: Five-Finger Mountain. Aside from using Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion once, he had revealed no other abilities.
Yet he possessed power ranked forty-ninth in the Ōtsutsuki Main Family!
What did that mean?
He was stronger than Yu had been during the battle against Kaguya, before Yu awakened his Tenseigan!
That was why Hashirama Senju and Uchiha Madara had joined forces against the enemy before them!
Whoosh!
Twin Soul-Gate Chain established a link between their souls, allowing them to share their ocular power and chakra!
This was a combined form unique to Hashirama and Madara!
The ocular power of the two eyes activated through this form was fully equivalent to their original owner using both eyes together!
A lone user could produce only one Limbo: Border Jail shadow, but in this form, that number rose to four. Two belonged to Madara and two to Hashirama, yet either man could control all four. In actual combat, it was even more effective than a single user possessing both eyes!
Amid the bitterly cold wind and snow, Madara stood bare-chested, his blood surging with excitement. "Hashirama, your interpretation of those words was right after all... yin and yang interact to give rise to the myriad phenomena! It refers to the Senju Clan and the Uchiha-you and me, fighting side by side!"
Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!
Whoosh! Hishiki brought his golden sword of light slashing down.
"Hmph." The corner of Madara's mouth lifted, and the Rinnegan in his right eye flashed faintly.
Swish!
A Limbo shadow replaced his real body, and Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion missed!
Appearing elsewhere, Madara formed hand seals
