Chapter 196: The Second Exclusive Dōjutsu
Uchiha Madara's flying speed was incredibly fast, but his mood was extremely urgent.
He knew that Izayoi possessed spatial-time abilities.
Whether it was the black teleportation gate, the Flying Raijin Jutsu, or even teleporting an object to a specific location and then using Flying Raijin Jutsu to instantaneously move there—these speeds transcended mere flight.
So, while flying, Uchiha Madara formed hand seals, once again casting a Kekkei Mōra-level Wood Release.
Crackling sounds echoed, and then a towering mountain peak instantly crumbled.
Like a giant python breaking free from its seal, a tree branch even larger than the mountain burst forth from within it, extending rapidly towards Uchiha Madara.
Compared to it, Uchiha Madara seemed as tiny as an ant.
A small crack appeared in the tree branch, and Uchiha Madara burrowed into it like an ant.
Immediately, three vast chakras of different colors surged from an unknown source, enveloping the entire tree branch, causing it to flicker with three distinct lights like a light tube.
These lights flickered, dimming and brightening, only lasting for a few seconds before disappearing.
And these three chakras were none other than the Eight-Tails, Gyūki, within Killer B, the Yang Nine-Tails within Uzumaki Naruto, and the Yin Nine-Tails, which Izayoi had sealed and placed under the care of a Wood Clone.
Infinite Tsukuyomi and God: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees could not only plunge everyone into a dream, but also provide them with nourishment using Wood Release until everyone transformed into White Zetsu.
At the same time, these two Kekkei Mōra combination techniques were also chakra absorption jutsus.
Uchiha Madara could absorb the chakra of anyone bound and hung from the branches by Wood Release.
Currently, Uchiha Madara could absorb the chakra of the entire ninja world, but he chose not to, only absorbing the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails.
Even so, his chakra reserves were astounding.
They were already almost infinite before, and now he could freely use any ninjutsu, Six Paths Senjutsu, or even Kekkei Mōra techniques.
"Only absorbed the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails, huh? Still too kind."
When Uchiha Madara emerged from the tree branch, Izayoi was already outside, his golden-yellow Rinne Tenseigan observing Uchiha Madara's current state. He commented, "Your current chakra levels are still nowhere near the Six Paths Sage I saw."
After awakening Amenominaka, Izayoi had not only observed the battle between Ōtsutsuki Kaguya and her two sons in the ice dimension.
He had also used the Tenseigan's long-range and X-ray vision, which could cover the entire ninja world, to find the places where the mother and sons had once fought. He not only relived that months-long arduous battle, but also witnessed the God Tree transforming into the Ten-Tails, and finally being sealed within Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo's body.
Although Uchiha Madara had become a complete Ten-Tails' jinchūriki, the gap between him and Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo was still significant.
It wasn't just the difference between pureblood and mixed-blood; it was also because Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura had both inherited the God Tree's chakra.
And the chakra of future generations originated from Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo.
Even if this chakra had been multiplied and diluted over a millennium, this fact remained unchanged.
Uchiha Madara's current power might have surpassed Ōtsutsuki Hamura, but he still couldn't compare to Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Kaguya.
However, this level of power already far exceeded the Six Paths Madara of the original story.
"It's enough to deal with you."
Uchiha Madara, whose power had surged again, sneered like a "heavenly assistant," "You will pay for your arrogance!"
"Try it if you're capable," Izayoi chuckled.
Their gazes met, creating dazzling sparks.
The next second, Uchiha Madara moved.
He grabbed the Sword of Nunoboko floating beside him and once again unleashed an annihilating white slash towards Izayoi.
Even Izayoi's Flying Raijin Jutsu and Yomotsu Hirasaka couldn't be activated in time.
Because the distance between him and Uchiha Madara was too close, and the slash's speed was too fast.
However, Izayoi showed no intention of dodging, still raising his right hand.
The next second, the white slash once again froze in front of Izayoi.
Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan and Rinne Sharingan stared intently at Izayoi, observing the chakra flow within his body, trying to identify what this ability was and where it originated within Izayoi.
Soon, Uchiha Madara found the answers.
Looking at Izayoi, who was once again absorbing the white slash, Uchiha Madara said grimly, "Is this your exclusive dōjutsu? You truly are a liar, what with that eye that sees the past—it's all fake. Could it be that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was also a fabricated lie of yours?"
"That's why I said mixed-blood Ōtsutsuki are ultimately just frogs in a well," Izayoi shook his head, chuckling. "You became the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki, but do you know what the eye on your forehead is called?"
"Rinne Sharingan."
Uchiha Madara stared at Izayoi's eyes, his tone firm. "Your eyes should be called Rinne Tenseigan, right?"
"The fusion of two nature transformations creates a Kekkei Genkai, and the fusion of three nature transformations is called a Kekkei Tōta," Izayoi continued to chuckle. "Do you know what type our eyes belong to?"
"What type?" Uchiha Madara asked cooperatively, though his face remained expressionless, clearly not entirely convinced by Izayoi's words.
"Our eyes belong to the Kekkei Mōra type," Izayoi said, not concealing it this time, his smile playful. "By the way, Kekkei Mōra dōjutsu usually possess more than two abilities, and they are all on the Kekkei Mōra level."
Hearing this, Uchiha Madara's expression finally changed slightly.
It wasn't because Izayoi possessed two exclusive dōjutsu, but because he realized his own Rinne Sharingan only had one exclusive dōjutsu: Infinite Tsukuyomi.
And Kekkei Mōra: Wood Release was an ability granted to him by the Ten-Tails.
Izayoi was unaware of Uchiha Madara's thoughts. He continued to explain, revealing information about his own exclusive dōjutsu. He slowly said, "My Rinne Tenseigan not only possesses the abilities of the Rinnegan and Tenseigan, but each has also derived its exclusive dōjutsu. The Tenseigan's exclusive dōjutsu is called Amenominaka, possessing the ability to see the past and future."
"And the Rinnegan's exclusive dōjutsu is called... Miketsu!"
Izayoi again raised his right hand. Under Uchiha Madara's widened gaze, he slightly curled his lips and said, "Its ability is very ordinary: it turns all attacks into... food!"
As Izayoi's words fell, a mass of black substance instantly appeared in his palm, then formed a black longsword.
Unlike the strangely shaped Sword of Nunoboko in Uchiha Madara's hand, the black sword in Izayoi's hand was a very ordinary double-edged sword.
Yet, this very sword caused Uchiha Madara's eyes to tremble.
Before he could speak, Izayoi, holding the black sword, swept it horizontally towards Uchiha Madara.
A familiar white slash roared forth.
Due to its extreme speed and rapid expansion, Uchiha Madara, without spatial-time abilities, was similarly unable to dodge.
He instinctively raised the Sword of Nunoboko in his hand, bringing it down towards the roaring slash that had already opened into a white wall of light.
He attempted to split Izayoi's white slash in two with the power of his wish.
If this white light had been formed by a Truth-Seeking Orb's self-detonation, Uchiha Madara might have succeeded.
Unfortunately, the principle behind Izayoi's sword strike was the same as Uchiha Madara's Sword of Nunoboko: it was a "Sword of Wish Fulfillment" that could be imbued with powerful intent and unwavering belief.
This was a symbol of a strong heart!
Even a slight emotional fluctuation could cause what was supposed to be an omnipotent "Heart's Sword" to become broken junk that even a Kage-level expert could shatter.
This was a thought-powered strike capable of rivaling Kekkei Mōra.
Uchiha Madara, who was frightened by Izayoi's dōjutsu, naturally lacked the power to cut it.
This was also the reason Izayoi revealed his own information.
Swish!
A massive white crescent arc soared across the sky of the Land of Lightning, transforming the Land of Lightning, which had been re-engulfed by darkness after the white light of Infinite Tsukuyomi dissipated, back into daylight.
However, this daylight lasted only for a few seconds before darkness returned.
And in those few seconds, countless towering mountain peaks vanished into nothingness.
Clouds drifting in from other countries also dissipated once again.
Anything grazed by the white light, whether mountaintops or clouds, even the force of wind, was reduced to nothingness, with absolutely no wind resistance.
The white slash flew out of the Land of Lightning in a few seconds.
Uchiha Madara also flew out of the Land of Lightning along with it.
From this, it was clear that if Izayoi didn't have the ability to absorb the white slash, even if he wasn't cut in half or turned into nothingness, he would still be sent flying a very, very long distance, just like Uchiha Madara.
Due to the nature of the Heart's Sword and Izayoi's inability to shatter Uchiha Madara's conviction, the immensely powerful white slash failed to break the Sword of Nunoboko in Uchiha Madara's hand.
Uchiha Madara, possessing an immortal body, was also completely unharmed.
However, this single sword strike brought immense shock and psychological pressure to Uchiha Madara.
Before he could calm himself and restore the Sword of Nunoboko's power to its maximum, Izayoi's voice came from behind him.
"You knew I possessed the Rinne Tenseigan, so why didn't you try to steal the Gedō Mazō all those times?"
His voice and the sound of rushing air occurred simultaneously. Uchiha Madara quickly turned and flew backward, parrying Izayoi's slash with his sword.
At the same time, Uchiha Madara manipulated a Truth-Seeking Orb, transforming it into a black beam of light that shot towards Izayoi.
Izayoi, holding his sword with one hand, casually waved it to deflect the Truth-Seeking Orb. Then, he engaged Uchiha Madara in an aerial "health preservation sword style" duel, beginning to answer his own question: "Because I wanted you to become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki, and then I would use Miketsu's ability to absorb the abilities you unlocked by becoming the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki."
"You ask why I would go through such trouble and take such a risk? Wouldn't it be better to directly become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki and possess these abilities and seemingly infinite chakra?"
"It's simple. My eyes saw the past. Within the Gedō Mazō lies a contingency that even Six Paths Sage Mode and the Rinne Tenseigan cannot overcome—a contingency for the revival of Ōtsutsuki Kaguya."
Izayoi looked at Uchiha Madara, who was unconsciously distracted, whose "health preservation sword style" had fallen into a disadvantage, and whose Rinnegan and Rinne Sharingan's insight seemed to have lost their effectiveness. He couldn't help but grin, "Can you still contact the Wood Clone responsible for monitoring Black Zetsu?"
These words completely broke through Uchiha Madara's mental defenses, and his body paused slightly.
Seizing the opportunity, Izayoi unleashed another sword strike.
Uchiha Madara still instinctively defended.
But the next second, the Sword of Nunoboko in his hand let out a crackling sound of shattering.
Then, the tearing sound of fabric followed closely.
Uchiha Madara's body, like the Sword of Nunoboko in his hand, was cut in half by Izayoi.
A massive white crescent arc flashed past Uchiha Madara's back, and the world momentarily turned to daylight.
Such a sight could actually be witnessed by the Four Great Nations of the Ninja Continent.
It was just that everyone had entered the world of Infinite Tsukuyomi, preventing them from seeing such a magnificent scene.
After cutting Uchiha Madara in half with one strike, Izayoi did not press his advantage. Instead, he held his sword in one hand and raised the other, concentrating a golden-yellow orb of light in his palm.
Chakra flames of various colors immediately flew out from the severed sections of Uchiha Madara's body, converging towards the golden-yellow orb and seeping into it.
This scene instantly jolted Uchiha Madara awake.
He immediately realized he had fallen into Izayoi's trap and quickly dispelled all distracting thoughts.
He didn't immediately manipulate the Truth-Seeking Orbs to liquefy and form a giant black ball to envelop his two body halves. Instead, his pupils widened, and he created four Limbo: Border Jail shadows, each wielding a Sword of Nunoboko, unleashing invisible slashes towards Izayoi.
To this, Izayoi chuckled, "The Heart's Sword is more than just a sword."
As his words fell, the black longsword in Izayoi's hand actually liquefied like a Truth-Seeking Orb, forming a hemispherical black shield that blocked all four invisible slashes.
The four slashes were unable to break through Izayoi's black shield.
If it had been a Truth-Seeking Orb, it would have been cut apart long ago, as even Six Paths Senjutsu-level Storm Release could easily cut through black rods formed by Truth-Seeking Orbs.
This was the power of pure will, utterly illogical!
While Izayoi was defending, Uchiha Madara's two body halves had already reconnected and returned to normal.
However, Uchiha Madara's expression became grim.
Because in that brief moment, Izayoi had stolen a significant amount of his chakra.
In the original story, after Ōtsutsuki Toneri was possessed by countless Byakugan and gained the power of the giant Tenseigan, he absorbed Uzumaki Naruto's chakra from a distance, and drained him instantly.
If it weren't for the loss of control due to absorbing solar energy, it would be hard to say who would have won.
Now, Izayoi's Tenseigan had transformed into the Kekkei Mōra-level Rinne Tenseigan, and its chakra absorption speed was even faster.
If it weren't for the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki's outer appearance, which possessed extremely powerful immunity, Izayoi wouldn't even need to break through Uchiha Madara's defenses; he could simply drain him from a distance.
