Naruto: About the Fact That my Brother is Madara

His body sank slightly, arms bent in defense—and in the next instant, Madara felt an overwhelming force crash into him.

There was no time to resist. His body was sent hurtling through the air like a cannonball, piercing through the churning waves before vanishing into the distance.

Water Release: Hundred Water Dragon Fangs!

Taking full advantage of the battlefield, an S-rank Water Release technique erupted forth like a tidal wave. Countless fanged dragons surged forward, their jaws snapping hungrily as they sought to tear the enemy apart.

"How dull."

Jigen raised a hand, and a diamond-shaped mark flickered with an eerie, ghostly glow.

The hundred water dragon fangs—an attack capable of drowning entire battlefields—disintegrated the moment they touched the mark, vanishing into pure chakra that was effortlessly absorbed.

Kāma's fundamental ability—Ninjutsu Absorption.

"Knowing my abilities and still using ninjutsu against me… That can only mean—"

Before the last vestiges of water had even faded, Kyōsuke was already upon him.

A pitch-black Sage Staff in hand, he swung it in a powerful arc, aiming to bring it crashing down onto Jigen's head.

"There must be a trick behind this."

Jigen's golden pupils flashed as Sukunahikona activated. In an instant, his body shrank to a size so minuscule that even the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan could not perceive him.

Naturally, Kyōsuke's staff slashed through empty air.

Yet, just as he prepared his next move, the Truth-Seeking Orb in Kyōsuke's grasp suddenly morphed—shifting into the shape of a flat-bottomed frying pan.

*BAAAM!!!*

A thunderous impact rang out—a full-powered home run swing.

"Bastard!"

Blood sprayed from Jigen's lips, his expression twisting in fury. The indifferent demeanor he had maintained until now finally shattered.

In truth, the Truth-Seeking Orbs could not inflict significant damage on his body.

Had he been at full strength, such an attack would have been nothing more than a drizzle in a storm. However, he was currently constrained by Jigen's vessel.

If he continued to take hits like this, the situation would turn dire.

Controlling his body as he hurtled backward, his golden eyes gleamed with a cold, calculating light.

Suddenly—

An enormous, dark-red cube materialized out of thin air above Kyōsuke's head.

Dōjutsu—Daikokuten!

A power originating from Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, Daikokuten allowed him to store shrunken objects in a separate dimension where time stood still—then summon them at will.

At first glance, it seemed like a simple ability. But when combined with his other technique—the power to shrink objects at will—it became devastating.

A massive cube, over ten meters in diameter and carrying the weight of a mountain, descended like an executioner's blade.

No one in the world could survive its crushing force from beneath.

*BOOOOM!!!*

The cube slammed down, shaking the very air. A smirk tugged at the corners of Jigen's lips.

Just then—

Fire Release: Majestic Destroyer Flame!

A raging inferno erupted across the sky, engulfing everything in its path. The sheer scale of the flames left no room for escape.

Of course, Jigen had no need to evade.

Yet the moment he attempted to absorb the flames, a sharp pang throbbed at his temple. An ominous premonition surged through his heart.

"Found you!"

Sensing a sudden void within the flames, Madara let out a wild, unrestrained laugh.

A colossal blue Susanoo stood tall upon the sea, parting the waters with a single, devastating slash aimed directly at Jigen's location.

Realizing the danger, Jigen had no choice but to return to his normal size. Gripping two black rods, he met Madara's ferocious strike head-on.

At the same time, a kunai landed silently behind him.

In the next instant—

A figure cloaked in blue steam, burning with an aura of raw power, appeared.

Eight Gates Released Formation—Seventh Gate, Gate of Wonder… Open!

In practical combat, the Eight Gates were not necessarily superior to Sage Mode in terms of overall power.

However, against an opponent capable of absorbing chakra, the Eight Gates—which focused purely on augmenting physical prowess—became the superior choice.

At this moment, Kyōsuke's physical abilities had been pushed to the peak of the Super Kage level.

Even if Jigen didn't suffer grave injuries from a direct hit, the strain on his borrowed body would only accelerate its deterioration.

"Not bad. You live up to your flashy reputation."

Faced with imminent crisis, Jigen did not panic. Instead, he regained his initial calm—as if everything remained firmly within his control.

Just before Kyōsuke's fist could connect, the diamond-shaped Kāma markings spread wildly across his body.

Kāma—Stage One!

A surge of raw power coursed through him, elevating his strength to the level of one who had just stepped into the Six Paths realm.

With his left hand, he halted Susanoo's devastating blade.

With his right hand, he stopped Kyōsuke's full-force punch.

Jigen's body did not so much as tremble. Only a glint of cold indifference flickered in his golden eyes.

"I believe I told you before…"

"Your time is running out."

Before Kyōsuke could react, several black rods shot forward—piercing through his body.

The most fatal one embedded itself mere inches from his heart.

"Gah!"

A mouthful of blood gushed forth, painting the air with crimson droplets.

Even with his Advanced Sage Body, Kyōsuke found himself momentarily unable to break free from the chakra-sealing properties of the Yin-Yang Release black rods.

"How unfortunate… You once had the chance to grasp eternity."

Jigen's voice was calm, almost indifferent.

With a mere flick of his hand, another swift and imperceptible attack was launched. So fast—so unfathomable—that even the Sharingan could not discern its trajectory.

Deprived of his ability to mold chakra, Kyōsuke could no longer maintain his Mangekyō Sharingan, let alone activate the Flying Thunder God Technique.

A few seconds.

That was all Jigen needed.

A mere handful of seconds—yet it was more than enough to kill him.

Over and over again.

"Eternity?"

Despite the pain, Kyōsuke's lips curled into a mocking smirk. A glint of defiance flickered in his bloodshot eyes, even as more crimson liquid dripped from his mouth.

"You call parasitizing for a thousand years 'eternal life'—like some insignificant speck of earwax clinging to existence?"

His voice, though hoarse from the taste of blood, carried a sneer so sharp it could cut through steel.

"How disappointing… I'm afraid I have no interest in such a thing."

At that moment—

A surge of power erupted.

From his shoulder, the seal was undone.

Pure, refined Sage Chakra flooded his body, wrapping around him like an unbreakable armor.

No longer able to mold chakra?

It did not matter.

The Sage Chakra he had long stored within his curse mark surged forth, breaking past the enemy's suppression.

All it took was a single thought—an instant of will—to unlock it.

A sharp, crystalline sound rang out.

DING! DING! DING!

The black rods impaling his body trembled—then, as if repelled by an invisible force, they were forcibly expelled.

More importantly, his ability to gather chakra had been restored.

His Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan opened once more.

His reversal-time dōjutsu activated—and the black rods that had pierced him began to retreat, reversing to the moment before they had struck.

With the activation of his left eye's dōjutsu—End—Kyōsuke enveloped himself in a powerful temporal barrier.

At this moment—

Nothing could come into contact with his body.

Had the enemy used a different technique, End might not have been so effective.

But Jigen's shrinking rods, due to their limited mass, were perfectly susceptible to Kyōsuke's time-based power.

At the very least, for a short period of time, he no longer had to worry about any attacks from Sukunahikona.

Amidst the battlefield's rumbling tremors, Kyōsuke ignored his opponent's assault and recklessly charged forward, throwing caution to the wind.

"What?!"

Jigen was stunned.

"Why is my attack ineffective?!"

His voice carried a hint of disbelief. "Is this… your dōjutsu?"

For a mere Sharingan to awaken such a law-defying ability… Impossible.

Even if only for a fleeting moment, Jigen had keenly perceived the abnormal flow of time. It was an astonishing ability—one that immediately reminded him of a terrifying existence within his own clan.

"Tch. Making a fuss over nothing." Kyōsuke closed the distance in an instant. The countless minuscule black rods appearing along his path barely hindered him, sapping his ocular power at most but failing to inflict any real harm.

He paid no heed to his opponent's sudden shrinking. Taking a deep breath, he unleashed a ferocious straight punch—one so overwhelming that the very air compressed under its force, forming a white tiger-shaped shockwave.

Daytime Tiger!

There was no need to aim, no need to track his enemy's movements.

The attack's sheer range was immense—so vast that Jigen had no time to escape the ensuing explosion.

Almost instinctively, he activated the power of his Kāma seal. But in the next moment, his eyes widened in utter shock.

He couldn't absorb it.

"This… this attack… it's not made of chakra?!"

A violent shockwave erupted, engulfing his entire figure and swallowing him whole within the impact.
