Hashirama Senju, whose mouth was covered by White Zetsu, clapped his hands together, and a dark red Sage mask appeared on his face.
"Sage Art: Wood Release: Armored Senju - Top Transformed Buddha!"
A colossal Senju -armed Buddha rose from the ground, each hand clad in sturdy blue Susanoo armor, resembling a Vajra living Buddha vanquishing demons in hell.
With his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan and Transparent World, Meikyō saw clearly the process of Hashirama Senju unleashing the True Several Thousand Hands.
He then drew upon the Senjutsu Chakra within his dantian, and a Senju Great Buddha clad in dazzling golden-orange armor rose beneath his feet, appearing even more sacred and majestic than the combined attack of Hashirama Senju and Uchiha Madara.
Two colossal objects, each weighing more than ten thousand tons, appeared, causing the earth to shake violently.
The earth began to tremble even before the two Susanoo Senju Great Buddha clashed.
Tobirama Senju recalled the great battle between Uchiha Madara and Hashirama Senju.
At that time, he and his Senju Clan members were several kilometers away. The two fought for only a few minutes when the powerful shockwave forced the Senju Clan members to retreat. Only he was able to stay in place and clearly see the general details of the battle.
Now, the battlefield on Meikyō's side is on a completely different scale than the battle Hashirama Senju and Uchiha Madara back then!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Countless fists adorned with Susanoo and gold Susanoo began to collide at that moment.
The fist was swung so fast that it even produced flames from friction with the atmosphere.
The force of each punch colliding is enough to grind anything into powder.
Such attacks were delivered countless times by the two imposing Senju Great Buddha in a short period of time.
If it were Kage Level powerhouses currently engaged in battle, aside from those like Tobirama Senju and Minato Namikaze who Space-Time Ninjutsu, the others probably wouldn't even last a second.
The terrifying shockwave instantly swept across hundreds of kilometers of land.
Even Konoha, dozens of kilometers away, activated its protective barrier immediately to prevent the interior from being severely affected.
Even hundreds of kilometers away, a strong wind was blowing at this moment, as if a typhoon was approaching.
"Snap—"
The earth cracked open, and the cumulus clouds in the sky were churned wildly by the air currents below, accompanied by lightning and thunder, creating a scene reminiscent of the end of the world.
A massive earthquake struck...
Apart from Meikyō, Madara, and Hashirama Senju, everyone else unanimously shifted the battlefield to a more peripheral area.
There's a saying, "When gods fight, mortals suffer."
These Kage Level ninjas are certainly not ordinary people, but in battles of this caliber, they are no different from ordinary ninjas, only qualified to observe from afar.
With Rinnegan and Senjutsu Hashirama, they are basically the top-tier combatants below the Six Paths level.
When these two top-tier combatants below the Six Paths combine, their destructive power has quietly reached the threshold of the Six Paths level.
In other words, Meikyō's destructive power has now reached this level.
The earth continued to tremble, and the roaring sound still echoed.
With the protection of the Susanoo Armor, the Senju Great Buddha's arms are even more robust, allowing it to unleash countless more punches after a single strike.
The exchange of fire lasted for more than an hour.
The terrifying destructive force has pierced through the ground, revealing the scorching magma hidden deep underground.
The two Senju Great Buddha, clad in Susanoo armor, continued their battle, their lower bodies submerged in lava.
Even if the Susanoo Armor is shattered, Meikyō and Uchiha Madara will still use their eye power to repair it.
Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan power Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, and Meikyō now possesses a Sage Body no less than that of Hashirama Senju. The recovery speed of the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan's power is also extremely fast.
If this continues, both sides will ultimately achieve nothing.
This is not what Meikyō wants.
Fortunately, he has the ability to break this deadlock.
A line of bloody tears streamed down his left eye. Meikyō forcefully pushed his Dojutsu beyond its limits, causing the Susanoo fists of the Wood Human Technique to ignite with Amaterasu Black Flame, capable of burning anything.
Releasing such a massive amount of Amaterasu at once would be a huge burden even for the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.
This is the first time since Meikyō Awakening the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan that he has shed blood and tears due to overloading his Dojutsu.
However, his perfect Sage Body gave him the ability to overuse his eye power.
The terrifying destructive power of Amaterasu Black Flame instantly broke the stalemate.
Unlike Uchiha Sasuke, Meikyō doesn't have Kagutsuchi to control the Shape Transformation of Amaterasu.
When using Amaterasu, pay attention to the trajectory. When Amaterasu Dragon Dance, barely managing to condense a long, narrow dragon shape is already the limit.
While the Buddha Fist now imbued with Amaterasu Black Flame can certainly increase its lethality against the opponent, it will also damage our own Senju Wooden Buddha.
"This is..."
Uchiha Madara stood atop the head of the Senju Great Buddha. Because of the protection of Susanoo, he wouldn't be burned by Amaterasu immediately, so he was relatively safe.
"Why would someone expend so much of their eye power to make such a move...? Is it because they don't have enough Chakra, or do they know that the Eternal Mangekyo's eye power can't compete with my Rinnegan, so they're trying to break the deadlock early and find a new opportunity...?"
Uchiha Madara had an incredibly rich combat experience, and he instantly put himself in the shoes of Meikyō to make a judgment.
Under Amaterasu's true harm, all beings are equal.
This thing has a poor track record, but its potential is extremely high; even Kaguya wouldn't dare to touch it easily.
The Susanoo armor on the two Senju wooden Buddhas had mostly disappeared, and the countless wooden hands that had extended from behind them had all broken and burned.
"Boom!!!"
The two enormous creatures collided violently and then collapsed simultaneously into the lava lake, splashing up countless streams of lava.
At the same time, Meikyō's figure rushed out, and the Ama-no-Ohabari in his hand ignited with raging black flames, condensing into a huge black Flame Dragon.
"Sun Breathing - Nineteenth Sword Form: Amaterasu Dragon Dance!"
The First Hokage Impure World Reincarnation clapped his hands together, summoning a massive Wood Dragon from behind him, which roared away, only to be destroyed in an instant.
"Amaterasu empowered by Senjutsu Mode...?"
Uchiha Madara dared not use the Rinnegan's Blocking Technique Absorption Seal, to absorb Chakra, so he had Susanoo again and slash forward with his sword.
Previously, Meikyō overused Amaterasu, so this time the Amaterasu Black Dragon was much smaller in scale than the one in the Pirate World. Moreover, it had already been partially neutralized by Hashirama Senju's Wood Dragon. Now, as soon as it came into contact with Uchiha Madara Susanoo, both sides immediately began to collapse layer by layer.
As the Amaterasu Black Dragon disappeared, the figure of the Meikyō suddenly vanished from Madara's sight.
"Amenotejikara!"
In an instant, Meikyō teleported behind Madara, smashed Susanoo's spine with a punch with his left hand, and rushed in. With his right hand, he swung the Ama-no-Ohabari, slashing towards Uchiha Madara's head.
"Clang!"
The sound of metal clashing rang out as Uchiha Madara reversed his scythe and blocked the Meikyō from Meikyo.
However, a deep wound had been cut into the right side of his body, and it was covered in blood.
Being pierced by the Ama-no-Ohabari is not just a simple matter of having another wound.
Bruce is a blood-sucking bat!
Uchiha Madara's face suddenly turned deathly pale, but the next second, the wounds on his body were instantly smoothed out again.
With four Limbo Clones, Uchiha Madara could use Limbo Clone to take the brunt of any injury, even one that would result in instant death, regardless of the severity of the injury. Moreover, the Limbo Clone would be fully restored in no time.
A powerful force pressed down on the scythe along the Ama-no-Ohabari. Uchiha Madara gripped the scythe's handle with both hands, kneeling on the ground, but the blade of the longsword was still inevitably approaching his neck.
Meikyō frowned, used Amenotejikara once again to teleport behind Uchiha Madara, and slashed at Madara with his sword.
If he didn't change position soon, Hashirama Senju's fist would hit him.
Even though the Meikyō had changed position, Uchiha Madara was still prepared.
Three unseen Limbo Clone attacked Meikyō simultaneously.
In an instant, Meikyō waved the Ama-no-Ohabari Feather in her hand everywhere.
Above this magma, Meikyō fought alone against Limbo Clone, Uchiha Madara's main body from the outside world, and Hashirama Senju and his four companions.
The Sharingan, Wood Release, swordsmanship, Senjutsu —countless of the world's most powerful techniques clashed once again.
Uchiha Madara and Hashirama Senju possessed top-tier close-combat abilities, demonstrating exceptional skill in utilizing the Sharingan and Wood Release techniques in close combat.
As the two who stood at the very top of the previous generation, their strongest abilities were naturally the Sharingan and Wood Release. However, their Taijutsu, swordsmanship, and their own combat tactics and teamwork were all top-notch in the Ninja World.
Even so, in close combat, they were still no match for Meikyō.
"Sun Breathing - Eleventh Form - Dragon Sun Halo Head Dance!"
This move was the first technique that Meikyō developed in depth among the first thirteen sword forms of Sun Breathing. When it was used, his figure was like a streak of light, freely slashing and cutting through the field.
If it weren't for Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan possessing near-perfect dynamic vision, and if it weren't for Hashirama Senju Senjutsu having exceptional sensory abilities, they would probably have been Meikyō to pieces by now.
Even so, the two were in a very sorry state.
Uchiha Madara was once again pierced by the Ama-no-Ohabari and was seriously injured.
In order not to affect his combat power, Madara had no choice but to transfer his injuries to another Limbo Clone.
"Hmph, Madara, how long can you hold out like this?"
Meikyō held the Ama-no-Ohabari Feather horizontally in his hand, looking at the blood-red blade that had appeared on it due to absorbing blood, and sneered at Uchiha Madara.
"Really? You actually think that way? That's a real shame."
Uchiha also sneered.
In an unseen dimension, yet another figure of Uchiha Madara emerged from Madara's true form.
The number of Limbo Clone has been restored once again.
Immediately, Meikyō knew that this time, he and Ban would still be unable to determine a winner.
In their first encounter, Uchiha Madara had not yet fully recovered his strength, and Meikyō had not yet awakened his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. In the end, Meikyō had a slight advantage, but he was still helpless against Madara.
The second encounter was the same as the last one. Both sides possessed top-tier combat power below the Six Paths level, and neither could gain the upper hand over the other.
Uchiha Madara was only able to create Limbo Clone to harass the other members of Konoha, so overall Madara had a slight advantage.
This time, Uchiha Madara had an additional Edo Impure World Reincarnation Hashirama Senju with roughly the same level of strength, essentially reaching the level of his prime. Meanwhile, Meikyō also gained abilities comparable to Hashirama Senju through Genus's second genetic modification.
With all these factors combined, the two sides were truly evenly matched this time. Uchiha Madara also needed Limbo Clone to take his place and block Hashirama Senju's attack.
Bhiruho's modified Impure World Reincarnation, while able to unleash Hashirama Senju's full power, is unlike the original Impure World Reincarnation which allows for Infinity regeneration.
Therefore, the key to whether Uchiha Madara will return empty-handed once again rests on the shoulders of others.
Uchiha Madara's goal was to kill Uchiha Meikyō, so that he would have no more opponents and could easily do whatever he wanted.
What does Madara want to do? Of course, it's the Infinite Tsukuyomi plan, so what he wants most right now is to capture the Three-Tails and Nine-Tails in Konoha.
He assigned this task to Bhiruho.
At this very moment, Bhiruho having a great time.
Although the battle between Meikyō and Ban was incredibly large, forcing them to change battlefields.
But that's a matter for those big shots.
Bhiruho a lot of fun crushing weaker opponents right now, especially the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi and the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki.
Bhiruho Rogue Ninja and hunted down after conducting human experiments on the orders of the Third Hokage. Now, the old man's strength is much weaker than it was twenty years ago, Bhiruho a lot of fun beating him up.
There's no need to mention the other Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki.
Dust Release is the next target that Bhiruho intends to devour.
"Damn it! Aren't you guys targeting the Tailed Beast? Why are you all relentlessly attacking me!"
The old man, covered in wounds, looked as if he were wearing a mask of pain.
If it weren't for the strong defensive capabilities of Earth Style and Ōnoki's extremely profound mastery of Earth Style, he would most likely be dead by now.
"This can't go on!"
Minato Namikaze used Flying Thunder God to teleport to Dan Katō's side, where he was lifted into the air by Dan Katō's psychic power.
"Minato, what do you want to do..."
Dan Katō hesitated.
"Yes, although Kushina and I are not yet proficient in that technique, it is enough to suppress Bhiruho and gain an opportunity for battle in a short period of time."
Minato Namikaze nodded and said seriously.
"Are you confident?" Dan Katō asked seriously.
"Leave it to us!"
Minato Namikaze formed a hand seal with his left hand, and his figure vanished instantly.
The next second, Minato Namikaze appeared in Konoha.
