Chapter 1042: Targeting The Base
Three gigantic red magatama, wrapped in fierce flames, spun rapidly in the air, trailing crimson tails. Like falling meteors, they abruptly descended at the entrance of Konoha, lighting up the faces of numerous Konoha's Shinobi with a deep red glow!
"What?!"
"Damn it! Sneak attack!"
"Think of something, quickly!"
As the Shinobi panicked, Naruto and Sasuke stepped forward simultaneously.
"This level of attack…" Naruto quickly extracted the Kyubi's Chakra with a serious expression, and the Biju Cloak on his body expanded immediately. However, he had an inexplicable feeling that unless Kyubi came out, he wouldn't be able to block this move!
"Only one look is enough." Sasuke opened the Eternal Mangekyo while pretending, trying to burn the magatama out with the Amaterasu. However, when his gaze focused on the three gigantic red magatama, he realized they were too fast. Even the flames of Amaterasu couldn't burn them out before they fell!
"Leave it to me." Kakashi sighed silently, the pattern of the Mangekyo in his eyes spinning slightly, "Kamui!"
In the air, a massive invisible vortex suddenly appeared on the three magatama, twisting them until they were completely swallowed!
"It disappeared…""As expected of Kakashi-sama!"
"Long live Kakashi-sama!"
The Konoha's Shinobi, having survived the calamity, cheered in relief.
"Tch." Sasuke curled his lips, unhappy that someone else had stolen the limelight again.
Naruto, on the other hand, was dragged into the sealing space by Kyubi.
"Naruto, now you see how terrifying Uchiha Madara is, right?" Kyubi said solemnly, seemingly trying to regain some respect.
Naruto nodded repeatedly, "Is this the full strength of Uchiha Madara? It feels like unless you come out, I will…"
"Naive!" Kyubi brutally interrupted him, then said with a snort, "Full strength? Naruto, that thing just now was just a casual attack from Uchiha Madara, like your Rasengan."
"What?" Naruto's eyes immediately widened in shock.
'If that is the case, Uchiha Madara can destroy Konoha with no difficulty just by constantly releasing the attacks of that level.'
'Isn't that too terrifying?!'
"Alright, let's continue watching the battle." Kyubi said as he sent Naruto out of the sealing space.
Returning to his senses, Naruto looked up and saw that his teacher, Kanpū, wearing a green Chakra Cloak, had already charged towards Madara's Susanoo, starting a close combat with him!
Bam bam bam!
Bam bam bam!
While Kanpū fought with Madara, he controlled the nine Truth-Seeking Balls to try and touch Madara. If even one hit, Madara would have to kneel and call him daddy.
Unfortunately, Madara's combat experience was too rich. No matter how the nine Truth-Seeking Balls moved around, he could always dodge them in advance.
During the fierce battle, Madara said with a sneer at Kanpū, "The Truth-Seeking Balls are indeed terrifying, but as long as you treat them as untouchable enemies, it's fine. For me, fighting ten at once is just a side show."
"As expected of Uchiha Madara. I, Gekko Kanpū, would like to call you the strongest!" Kanpū said righteously while fighting.
Hearing this, Madara's brows frowned.
'Call me the strongest?'
'Do you have that qualification?'
Madara leaped back, took off the red armor covering him and tore off his battle suit underneath, revealing his muscular chest and the face that resembled Hashirama's.
"Wood Release: Nativity of a World of Trees!" Madara formed hand seals and slammed his hands to the ground. In an instant, the earth cracked, and countless gray tree roots erupted like earth dragons, with buds rapidly growing into towering trees, creating a vast forest that spread toward Konoha at terrifying speed!
Madara knew that fighting Kanpū, who possessed nine Truth-Seeking Balls, was unwise because one mistake could turn him into dust. So, instead of that, he decided to attack the enemy's vital points!
Actually, he had tried this strategy just now, but he didn't expect his Yasaka Magatama to be blocked by Kakashi with Kamui.
'But now, let's see how Kamui handles the Nativity of a World of Trees!'
After summoning the sea of trees, Madara flickered and hid within it.
At this time, the faces of the Shinobi at the entrance of the village turned pale again!
"Isn't this Shodaime-sama's Wood Release?"
"Why does Uchiha Madara also know Wood Release?"
"If he can use Wood Release, how did he lose in the battle at the Valley of the End back then?"
As the group of Shinobi retreated rapidly, they muttered complaints.
Kakashi, Guy, Naruto, and Sasuke also retreated, their expressions are grim.
The sea of trees in front of them is spreading across several dozen kilometers, growing like bamboo shoots after rain, rapidly advancing toward them. And once they are engulfed by it, their fate was clear.
On Hokage Rock.
The expressions of Minato, Kushina, Fugaku, and Mei also became serious.
"Yondaime, did Uchiha Obito also summon Shodaime with Impure World Reincarnation?" Fugaku frowned asked.
"No, this is not Shodaime-sama's Wood Release, this is Uchiha Madara's Ninjutsu!" Kushina, with her strong sensing ability, said firmly.
"Uchiha Madara awakened Wood Release by transplanting the Shodaime-sama's cells." Minato explained calmly.
'In the Abyss, the Wood Release Shinobi called Senju Tathagata should be one of Uchiha Madara's experiments. Since Senju Tathagata can awaken Wood Release, so can Uchiha Madara!'
The only thing that Minato found puzzling is why no one from the Abyss has appeared in the battle until now!
At this moment, an Anbu hurriedly came over and reported, "Hokage-sama, Uchiha Madara is in the state of Impure World Reincarnation!"
"What?" Minato was stunned.
Then, he suddenly realized 'So that's why no one from the Abyss is here. It's because Uchiha Madara was brought out by Obito's Impure World Reincarnation. With such situation, it was naturally impossible for him to inform the Abyss.'
'Otherwise, Obito will inevitably gain control of the Abyss through Uchiha Madara!'
"Impure World Reincarnation? That's great!" Fugaku breathed a sigh of relief. He knows that Kanpū's Truth-Seeking Ball could disintegrate Impure World Reincarnation's immortal body. As long as Madara is hit by the Uchiha, it would be over for him!
While they talked, the sea of trees outside the village had advanced to within a hundred meters of Konoha!
"This ends now." Kanpū flew into the sky, the Truth-Seeking Balls in his hands spinning rapidly, "Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!"
Whoosh…
Terrifying hurricane roared from his palm, sweeping towards Madara's forest.
"It's useless!" Madara's voice came from the sea of trees and he said with cold and cruel tone, "Wood Release can absorb Chakra from Ninjutsu. Unless you use the Truth-Seeking Balls to attack directly… What?"
Amidst the confusion, shock, and amazement, the rapidly growing sea of trees seemed to have encountered a plague-stricken area, and was almost instantly 'shattered' by the hurricane!
Kanpū held two Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion with both hands, splitting the forest into pieces with the force of a hurricane!
Amidst the howling wind, in the center of the sea of trees, a blue winged demon god rose from the collapsing sea of trees.
Complete Body Susanoo!
Madara stood with arms crossed at the crystal on the forehead of the Complete Body Susanoo, looking down on Konoha and the small green figure below.
Crack crack crack…
The screeching sound of friction filled the air as the storm from Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion crazily cut into the Complete Body Susanoo, leaving numerous fine cracks on the blue tengu armor!
Madara ignored these details and directly manipulated the Susanoo to draw the massive katana from its waist, slashing towards Konoha fiercely!
Buzz…
With the trembling sound, a dazzling red sword aura shot out from the katana's tip!
"Now you've gone too far." Kanpū was unhappy.
'We agreed on a duel, but every attack is aimed at the village!'
'Are you addicted to destroying tower than attacking the enemies?'
What do you think?
