Uchiha Obito appeared behind Tao Bai Bai in an instant, thrusting out his right hand, and the Wood Release: Cutting Sprigs Technique erupted from his palm.
Uchiha Madara's combat experience was incredibly rich; his Three-Tomoe Sharingan flickered, and he took a step to the left, simultaneously sweeping his left hand back towards Obito's neck.
His movements did not pursue extreme speed; instead, they were almost perfectly synchronized with the speed of the Cutting Sprigs Technique stabbing towards his body.
Madara fully understood Obito's abilities, and likewise, he understood the weakness of Obito's Kamui intangibility.
Uchiha Obito seemed to have been blinded by rage, recklessly thrusting out the wooden spikes from his hand.
Uchiha Madara's expression remained unchanged, his left hand's horizontal sweep even making subtle adjustments continuously.
The wooden spikes quietly vanished as they passed through Tao Bai Bai's body, and at the same time, the opponent's hand blade passed through Obito's neck; the angry look on his face dissipated slightly, as Obito had not completely lost his mind.
As Uchiha Madara's Sharingan slightly rotated, he had a complete view of Obito's movements; as long as Obito made any attacking move, he would counterattack simultaneously.
This current body, compared to almost everyone in the Shinobi World that he knew of, was even stronger; even Hashirama's physique could never be so hard.
With such a body, he could instantly kill Obito with just one attack that exchanged injuries.
"Is your hatred only this much?"
Uchiha Madara's movements instantly froze; he turned his head, his Sharingan still continuously assailing Obito with genjutsu, but Obito, under the powerful dōjutsu of the Reincarnation Eye, would not be easily affected; the Wood Release in Obito's palm vanished, and he suddenly pulled with his right hand.
A strong gravitational pull appeared.
Uchiha Madara's center of gravity also shifted, tipping backward; Uchiha Obito said nothing, attacking again from behind, pressing his right hand onto Tao Bai Bai's back.
Uchiha Madara exerted force in his waist, while simultaneously concentrating Chakra in his feet, freezing his body at an angle of over forty-five degrees leaning backward, and grabbing towards Obito's eyes with his left hand.
His right arm, destroyed by a single Truth-Seeking Ball attack, had not yet regenerated; Truth-Seeking Ball, this substance, had an extremely high suppressive ability against regeneration-type abilities.
Obito's expression was cold, watching the hand reaching for his eyes approach at precisely the same speed as his own hand reaching for the opponent's back.
Hum!
Just before contact, the space in front of Obito's right hand instantly twisted.
Kamui!
Even with the Reincarnation Eye's suppression over the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, Obito still couldn't gain an advantage in taijutsu combat; Obito actually had no intention of killing the opponent with the Cutting Sprigs Technique; he still planned to absorb this strange Tao Bai Bai into the Kamui dimension.
As his figure twisted, Obito's Reincarnation Eye indeed discovered that the current Tao Bai Bai was no longer using that ability of clasping his hands together and instantly moving.
In other words, his guess was correct: Tao Bai Bai's body contained multiple souls, including Uchiha Madara, and when different souls took the lead, their combat abilities and habits were completely different.
The initial Tao Bai Bai who appeared favored taijutsu combat, with wide, wild, and exceptionally ferocious movements, usually not dodging or evading his attacks, but rather taking the attacks head-on with that invincible defense;
Then, the flippant consciousness possessed some peculiar space-time ability; clasping his hands allowed him to teleport, and his attacks were also linked to space abilities; facing attacks other than Kamui, the opponent also wouldn't dodge, but would directly block them with that almost invincible defensive ability;
The current Tao Bai Bai, under Uchiha Madara's control, fought with greater precision, utilizing the characteristics of the Sharingan extremely well, and furthermore, every movement was luring him to attack.
Madara was well aware of his own weaknesses; he was waiting for him to expose a flaw…
"It's just a pity, without those eyes, you are truly the weakest Tao Bai Bai!"
Uchiha Obito suddenly pulled his right hand back, and at the same time, Cosmic Pull was activated again, the strong gravitational force instantly destroying the distance Uchiha Madara had intentionally controlled.
Bai Cangshu's body fell towards Uchiha Obito's right hand, where space was already completely twisted; Kamui seemed to have activated in advance.
In just an instant, Bai Cangshu's body began to twist; Obito felt a surge of joy at this sight, but the next moment—
Bang!
Smoke exploded, and the Tao Bai Bai, twisted by space, turned into a piece of rubble.
Uchiha Madara appeared from behind Obito; he seemed as if he hadn't moved at all, merely looking indifferently at Obito, who had completely lost his reverence for him after obtaining the Eyes of God.
He grabbed his right shoulder with his left hand and tore vigorously, completely ripping off the incomplete severed arm.
But the next moment, blood stopped flowing from the severed shoulder, followed by a large amount of flesh regenerating, and a new arm began to grow.
"I am the weakest Tao Bai Bai?"
Uchiha Madara felt as if he had never suffered such an insult, so much so that he couldn't even feel anger at this moment; he only felt absurdity.
When he first took over this body, there was no Chakra in it, and he had also lost his Sharingan, basically only pure taijutsu could be used.
Then, as he gathered Chakra, that flippant guy tried to instantly kill Obito but was struck by a Truth-Seeking Ball from a Six Paths Level existence hidden in the shadows, who saved Uchiha Obito and even forced Obito to awaken the Reincarnation Eye.
He had already guessed that the Six Paths Level guy was probably the legendary Six Paths Sage.
By the time he took over this body again, he was already missing an arm, unable to even form hand signs to release some complex techniques.
It could be said that up until now, Uchiha Madara had no opportunity to display his strength, yet despite this, this Uchiha junior, whom he had personally trained, concluded that he was currently the weakest Tao Bai Bai.
"Ha~"
That flippant laughter couldn't be avoided; the opponent's soul was currently squeezed into the same body as his, and Gojo Satoru and Uchiha Madara seemed to maintain the lowest level of tacit understanding.
When he had acted freely just now, Uchiha Madara did not interfere; now, he also completely handed over control of the body to Uchiha Madara.
It was just that hearing the opponent being mocked like that, Gojo Satoru still burst out laughing.
Not only him, but Bai Cangshu himself, who was pressing one hand on the Heart Throne while casually swatting away flying Yin spirits, also had a smile on his face at this moment.
Nothing was more amusing than an arrogant person like Madara being evaluated in such a nearly humiliating manner.
As his right hand finally regenerated, powerful Nine-Tails Chakra also spread over his body.
Uchiha Madara clasped his hands in front of him, looking indifferently at Obito.
"I am the weakest Tao Bai Bai?"
"I don't recall… when you ever saw my strength."
Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!
A terrifying torrent of flames erupted on a scale that didn't seem possible for a single ninja to release.
But Uchiha Obito merely stood still, letting the flames pass through his body.
"What effect could such a technique have?"
Within the flames, a strong current of water suddenly erupted again; water and fire clashed, and a large amount of steam rose, completely engulfing all the surrounding areas.
Obito frowned slightly; he now realized a slight inadequacy of the Reincarnation Eye: this eye, like the Sharingan, did not possess X-ray vision or complete field of view, and could still be obscured by such smoke.
Numerous figures ran at high speed through the steam.
Puff, puff, puff~
Occasionally, shattered rocks or attacks would pass through his body; Obito felt the vast number of shadow clones around him, each shadow clone's taijutsu seeming very proficient.
He frowned, realizing that Madara was deliberately using this kind of attack to try and exhaust the time he could maintain his Kamui intangibility.
He couldn't remain in an intangible state indefinitely; even with his current Chakra and the evolved Reincarnation Eye, he couldn't exceed ten minutes.
Obito noticed the difference between Uchiha Madara and the previous two Tao Bai Bais; Uchiha Madara was a true ninja, a legendary ninja who had survived the most dangerous and cruel Warring States period.
His combat style was exceptionally ruthless and efficient, with all decisions made around intelligence.
Because he knew the weakness of his Kamui and the characteristic of the Reincarnation Eye not being able to see through things, he devised this tactic…
Suddenly, from within the steam, hundreds of Uchiha Madara clones charged, surrounding him; with this number of shadow clones, Uchiha Madara's current Chakra amount must also be astonishing.
As his pupils rotated, the Three-Tomoe Sharingan in each shadow clone's eyes seemed to be spinning.
Obito suddenly felt a surge of irritation.
"Facing the power of a god, what good are these shadow clones, no matter how many there are?!"
A strong repulsive force erupted from in front of him.
Shinra Tensei!
Boom!
A terrifying shockwave swept through the surroundings, and each shadow clone shattered in response, but amidst this powerful impact, the ground beneath Uchiha Obito's feet suddenly exploded, and a fire dragon, almost at the instant Shinra Tensei erupted, engulfed Uchiha Obito's figure.
This scene caused even Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo's expression in the distant void to be somewhat taken aback; he hadn't expected that, with an absolute advantage in ability, the person he had chosen would actually be countered by Uchiha Madara, who was controlling Tao Bai Bai's body, with such an ordinary technique?!
