"Aging Uchiha Madara!"
"Have you run out of tricks?"
Countless light particles formed Yagyu's body in mid-air. He looked down at Madara below and spoke casually.
"Kid!"
"With your strength, it's not yet time for you to dance!"
Madara looked up at Yagyu in the sky. His Limbo clone had already approached Yagyu.
Madara used the ability of his Limbo clone to swap positions with his main body.
Madara appeared directly beside Yagyu, his palm imbued with the power of the Rinnegan's Human Path reaching for Yagyu.
"Useless!"
Yagyu drawled lazily. His body shattered into countless specks of light, distancing himself from Madara in an instant.
"No matter how hard you try, you are powerless before my speed."
"Even if you can appear within inches of me... still..."
"The moment you appear, I can turn myself into light."
"Even the ability of the Human Path is powerless before the speed of light."
Yagyu's body reassembled in the distance as he spoke slowly to Madara.
"Coward who only knows how to dodge!"
"Relying solely on your unique ability to win—someone like you can never become a truly strong warrior."
Madara flew into a rage out of humiliation, his tone indignant as he tried to goad Yagyu.
"Oh~"
"Madara-san is really strict!"
"But I think having this ability is enough for me."
"Don't you agree? Mr. Madara!"
Yagyu spoke casually, raising a finger to point at Madara.
Golden light spewed from his fingertip, condensing into an arrow that shot towards his opponent.
Susanoo!
A light blue Susanoo appeared around Madara, forcibly blocking Yagyu's laser beam, sending golden specks of light flying everywhere.
The Susanoo grew a giant hand, using the back of its hand to block Yagyu's laser, pushing forcefully to scatter the condensed light particles in all directions.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The highly condensed light particles were deflected by Madara, causing violent explosions all around.
"Mere rubble, not enough to touch me!"
"Kid, do you think you can dance with just this?"
Madara roared, piloting his Susanoo into the sky, charging towards Yagyu.
"If I can share a dance with the Dancer of the Battlefield, I would be honored!"
Yagyu spoke casually. Golden light bullets appeared in his hands, then rained down like a storm.
Yasakani no Magatama!
Dense golden light bullets bombarded the Susanoo, forcing Madara to constantly consume pupil power to repair the damage.
After closing the distance, Madara slashed at Yagyu with a sword, but Yagyu turned into light and relocated again.
"Do you only have these few moves to use over and over?"
Madara looked at Yagyu with hatred, his face full of displeasure.
"Ooh, scary!"
Yagyu spoke casually, completely ignoring Madara's glare.
"Although I only have these few moves, you still can't do anything to me."
"As Mr. Lu Xun said well!"
"Long live the three-hit combo; one more hit is a waste!"
"Light energy attacks, light speed movement, body turning into light—these three moves are enough."
"In this whole world, very few can withstand these three moves."
"Most importantly, they are simple to operate—simple, crude, and fitting for Kizaru's wretched personality."
Yagyu chuckled, completely disregarding Madara's murderous gaze.
"Winning only by such rogue methods, you will never convince anyone!"
"A true powerhouse must possess the power to crush everything!"
Madara stared at Yagyu furiously.
"Ooh, scary!"
Yagyu curled his lip casually, putting on an "I refuse" expression that sent Madara's blood pressure soaring again.
"Aging Uchiha Madara!"
"Your anger fully demonstrates your powerlessness."
"Faced with my skills, you have absolutely no solution."
"You can only use such clumsy provocation to beg me to fight you head-on."
"But... what a pity!"
"The role I'm playing right now is a very wretched fellow."
"So you are destined to be disappointed; I will not fight you head-on."
Yagyu spoke casually, infuriating Madara enough to choke him.
"Ooh, scary!"
"The Dancer of the Battlefield from back then has grown old and faded; facing me, he can only rage impotently."
"Time spares no one!"
Yagyu said with emotion.
In all fairness, Yagyu actually agreed with Madara's statement quite a bit.
His current abilities could make the vast majority of people in the ninja world fear and dread him.
But to make people genuinely convinced, it would be very difficult.
He didn't possess the power to crush all enemies, nor the strength to shield others from powerful attacks.
Such a leader would make people feel uneasy inside.
However...
Yagyu stared at Madara, a faint smile appearing on his face.
Although he didn't have the strength to crush everything now.
Once he killed Uchiha Madara, everything would change.
Who was Uchiha Madara?
One of the two strongest men in the ninja world back then, the Shura of the Ninja World, the Dancer of the Battlefield!
Especially since he was currently in his prime state, a powerhouse capable of stringing up and whipping the nine Tailed Beasts.
With a pair of Rinnegan in hand, even if Senju Hashirama were resurrected, it would be hard to defeat him.
If Yagyu could kill Madara in this state, the achievement gained would certainly be extraordinary.
At that time, he would unlock more of the Kizaru template and gain the strength to crush the entire ninja world.
Yagyu raised a finger. Golden light blossomed at his fingertip, and a cross-shaped golden light rotated constantly.
"Dancer of the Battlefield, let me send you on your way with an attack!"
Yagyu spoke lazily. Beams of golden laser shot from his fingertips, slamming viciously into the Susanoo surrounding Madara.
"Boring attacks!"
Madara piloted the Susanoo to block Yagyu's laser attacks but couldn't help asking,
"What do you mean by 'Dancer of the Battlefield' that you keep mentioning?"
Yagyu raised an eyebrow and chuckled.
"Dancer of the Battlefield refers to you!"
"The 'Dancer of the Battlefield', who danced upon the battlefield. Who else but you is worthy of that name?"
Uchiha Madara looked annoyed. The name was too effeminate!
"Bastard!"
"If only I weren't unskilled in sealing jutsu, I'd show you what for this time!"
Madara spoke with hatred. Powerful pupil power surged from his eyes, making his Susanoo increasingly solid.
"Someone is coming?"
Yagyu, who was releasing golden lasers, had a thought. His Observation Haki detected the approach of unfamiliar ninjas.
