Atop a small mountain.
Genya stood at the summit, his clothes snapping in the wind.
He watched the Thousand-Armed Kannon turn toward him, saw Hashirama Senju standing proudly atop its head, and suddenly smiled.
"First Hokage, I wonder if you can stop this one."
His Rinnegan blazed with dazzling light!
At the same time, a small Susanoo appeared behind him, forming hand seals in sync with him!
Genya pressed his palms together, and the Susanoo did the same!
"Tengai Shinsei!"
BOOM!!!
The sky changed color!
Already thick with dark clouds from the earlier battle, the sky churned even more violently!
Gales howled, and thunder rumbled!
An invisible force tore the clouds apart, revealing the deeper heavens beyond!
Then everyone saw it!
An enormous meteorite was breaking through the atmosphere, plummeting toward the ground!
It was larger than the entire battlefield!
"Wh-what is that?!"
Someone cried out in terror.
"A meteorite! It's a meteorite!"
"Oh, heavens! Is he bringing a meteorite down on us?!"
Panic swept through the crowd!
Tobirama Senju's pupils contracted sharply!
"Tengai Shinsei... he actually knows that jutsu!"
The meteorite drew closer and closer, growing larger until it blotted out the sky!
The entire battlefield lay beneath its shadow!
Hashirama Senju looked up at the falling object from beyond the heavens, his eyes blazing!
"Hahaha! Good! This is what I wanted to see!"
He pressed his palms together again, and the Thousand-Armed Kannon spread its countless arms to meet the descending meteorite!
"Come on!"
Two forces beyond human comprehension were about to collide!
The spectators had forgotten to flee. They simply stared upward, dumbstruck by the mythical scene.
The Daimyo cowered behind Tobirama Senju, his legs trembling and his voice rising in pitch.
"Mad... they're all mad... these aren't humans... these aren't humans..."
But no one paid him
