Splurt!
The supremely sharp blade cut across Madara Uchiha's body, leaving a wound deep enough to expose bone.
Madara had nearly been cut in two!
Seeing the indifferent Naraku raise his sword again, Madara immediately controlled his shadows to buy himself time.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
After several flickers, Madara reappeared hundreds of meters away.
His formidable regenerative ability was also at work. In an instant, the wound Naraku had inflicted had almost completely healed.
As expected, even the Rising Sun Blade can't completely erase his body.
Naraku confirmed once again that Madara's Six Paths body far surpassed Obito's.
The Rising Sun Blade's erasure effect had caused Obito considerable trouble before. At the very least, he had been unable to recover his original form the way Madara had.

He had clearly swapped places with his clone just now. By all rights, he should have been able to avoid Naraku's slash.
Yet the moment he switched positions, Naraku followed right after him and appeared before him again.
Madara could accept Naraku noticing something wrong and abandoning his attack, or attacking his shadow instead.
But he could not accept still being wounded by Naraku after changing positions.

Of course, the reason he could determine which shadow Madara would switch with was indeed Observation Haki's power of foresight.
However, while that sequence of attacks had looked simple, it would have been difficult for anyone other than him to pull off.
For instance,
