BOOM!
Madara shot forward. His Susanoo's massive fist slammed down toward Sasuke's head!
CRASH…!!!
A sturdy arm blocked the blow.
In the wash of violet light, Sasuke lifted his gaze. The combination of his Byakugan and Mangekyō Sharingan was a new sight for Madara.
"So this is how you play with ocular power? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Amidst his manic laughter, Madara's left hand slashed three times. Clang! Clang! Clang! Three black rods embedded themselves near the Susanoo's feet. At the same time… he raised his right hand!
—Universal Pull!
Whoosh…!!!
The Susanoo was immobilized. Under the relentless pull, Sasuke was torn free—like a clam ripped from its shell!
Just before complete separation… Chidori erupted from Sasuke's right hand. The Susanoo's palms clamped together, spinning it violently.
"And what will you do now?"
Madara grinned savagely, angling his Susanoo's sword directly ahead. The gravitational pull from his palm intensified abruptly!
Whoosh…!!
Sasuke was ripped from his Susanoo. He hurtled toward the waiting blade!
"This is what I'll do!!!"
The chaotic, violent lightning of the Chidori in his right hand, forcibly molded by the Susanoo's palms, had transformed. It became a spiraling drill, sheathing his entire forearm!
The Rasengan-ification of Chidori… a phantom-grade Lightning Release that, in the Eighth War, had shattered the Third Raikage's strongest spear and shield in a single blow!
—Thunderous Chidori Spiral Sword!!!
Screech…!!!
A point of lightning struck. The chain of destruction began.
CRACK!
From the sword's tip to its hilt!
CRACK!!
From the hilt to the hand gripping it!
CRACK!!! From the hand to the arm, then to the entire body!
It happened in less than the blink of an eye.
Madara's Susanoo, caught in the arc of electricity scraped free by the drill, shattered completely…!
It wasn't a Perfect Susanoo, sure. But the destruction was still… too absolute.
And the worst part? The spiraling lightning on Sasuke's right arm hadn't even fully detonated…!
Propelled by the pull… the Chidori Spiral Sword was now point-blank!
Madara reacted instantly. He raised his gunbai to block, intending to use his signature Uchiha Reflection to turn the attack back on its user.
But Sasuke was unflappable. The spiral sword retracted slightly. His Kusanagi thrust forward instead!
Clang…! Sword met fan. The sudden, impossible weight almost wrenched the gunbai from Madara's grip!
In that instant, he remembered. When he'd recovered this fan, Obito's discarded weapon, on the Land of Rice Fields battlefield… it had felt this heavy then, too.
So that's it.
"You mastered Iwagakure's Super-Added-Weight Rock Technique. Then you used Magnet Release to 'magnetize' its effect onto your weapon. That lets you transfer the weight through blade contact, making it impossible to guard against…!!!
"But…"
"Don't you dare compare me to trash like Obito!!!"
Madara's grin widened, veins bulging on his arm. A mechanical arm from his Asura Path manifested in response. He abandoned the Uchiha Reflection entirely, instead using brute force to swing the impossibly heavy fan back at Sasuke…!
"!!!"
The adaptation genuinely startled Sasuke…!
But in the next heartbeat… he raised his Kusanagi to block, while the Chidori Spiral Sword drove forward with unstoppable force!
BOOM…!!!
In the exploding field of spiraling lightning, both the Uchiha gunbai and the Kusanagi were reduced to dust…!
Bathed in the fading electrical glow, two figures—one black, one white—shot back and slammed into the bases of opposite earthen slopes.
His ancestral fan destroyed, Madara didn't rage. He laughed.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA! Truly living up to the reputation! Since my resurrection, this is the first time I've thanked the heavens from the bottom of my heart—for granting me a weak body, but such a strong enemy!"
—Susanoo: Two-Faced Sovereign!
ROAR…!!!
A Perfect Susanoo, majestic and two-faced, stood tall. Its four hands moved in unison with its master's, forming a single seal.
—Tengai Shinsei!
BOOM…!!
The clouds above were swept clean. A deep shadow fell over the land.
A meteor screamed down from the heavens.
Sasuke didn't look up. Didn't even glance.
He merely furrowed his brow deeply, his gaze boring into Madara. "What's the meaning of this?"
Madara looked up eagerly. "I want to see you perform!"
Sasuke shook his head coldly. "Pathetically boring."
Clap!
The next second, his hands clasped together at his chest!
ROAR…! ROAR…! ROAR…!
Across the vast ruins of Konoha, hundreds of gigantic trees erupted skyward. They grew, and grew, and grew…! As they stretched upward, their trunks became more rugged and powerful. Their spreading canopies transformed into hundreds of muscular, titanic hands, rising to meet the descending meteor, bracing firmly against its underside.
With a final, ground-shaking THUD…!! the Tengai Shinsei was brought to a complete halt, suspended a hundred meters in the air!
Madara's grin remained. "Impressive Wood Release. But…"
"A second one, right?" Sasuke cut off Madara's monologue coldly, his hand seals shifting!
ROAR…!!!
From behind the first meteor, an avalanche of wood surged forth, coalescing into a colossal figure!
—Wood Style: Wooden Human Airdrop!
ROAR…!!!
The wooden giant leaped from the top of the first meteor, its mighty fist swinging up to meet the second meteor's descent!
BOOM! CRUNCH! RUMBLE!
Cracks spiderwebbed from the point of impact, racing across the entire celestial body. With a deafening roar, the second meteor disintegrated mid-air…!
RUMBLE-RUMBLE-RUMBLE…!!!
The Wooden Human crumbled into deadwood as it fell, its duty done.
Sasuke lowered his hands, his gaze level on Madara.
"Are you satisfied now?"
"NOT EVEN CLOSE!!!"
Flash! Golden light ignited. Madara flickered to the top of the first, still-suspended meteor!
Clap! After bringing his hands together, the dark core of a Chibaku Tensei rose into the sky… The debris from the second meteor, shattered by the wooden giant, was violently pulled back together by the immense gravitational force!
ROAR…!!!
Madara, now piloting his Perfect Susanoo, soared backward, higher into the sky. With a sweeping gesture… the reformed second meteor slammed into the rear of the first one!
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!!
Beneath the first meteor, the hundreds of massive tree-hands groaned, splintering under the doubled weight. They could no longer hold.
Sasuke made no move to reinforce them. He simply stood beneath the crumbling sky, watching to see what Madara would do next.
The two meteors were now connected, front to back… Madara soared even higher, above the second one!
His Rinnegan gleamed with dangerous light. Both palms aimed at the second meteor's tail.
—Super Almighty Push!!!
BOOM…!! White light swallowed everything…! A force capable of sweeping away all creation slammed into the twin meteors, driving them both down toward the earth…!
KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM…!!!
A mushroom cloud of black dust and debris expanded across the land, its shockwave reaching even the vicinity of the Valley of the End.
When the dust finally settled… the terrain for dozens of miles around Konoha had been utterly and permanently rewritten.
"That attack left no room for escape without space-time techniques. So then, Uchiha Sasuke… from where will you appear?"
Madara landed atop the highest remaining mound of earth, scanning the devastation.
But the rumble… came from beneath his feet.
"You're kidding me…?"
Rustle-rustle-rustle!!
Countless… purple tentacles burst through the rubble blanketing the earth, waving grotesquely on the surface…!
Dodging and weaving, Madara stared at the purple appendages. "Those are… his Susanoo!?"
Snap-snap-snap…!!
The tentacles merged, stretching, forming muscle striations. The form of a Susanoo manifested from within.
Madara landed, stance firm. "It is a Susanoo… His is downright sinister!"
This Susanoo's head scraped the sky, its waist buried in the earth. Its maw gaped open… its jaw practically unhinged to its chest!
A 'wooden dragon' wreathed in Susanoo chakra emerged from within.
The dragon opened its mouth, spewing forth a stream of white wood-pulp. From it, Sasuke stepped out, completely unharmed. His Susanoo cloak re-ignited around him.
—"Had enough?"
Madara laughed. "To be honest, this level doesn't even count as a warm-up!"
Sasuke turned away coldly. "Twenty-one days from now. The Valley of the End. We settle this. As a condition for this fight, you will not lay a hand on anyone until then."
Madara watched Sasuke's back, his gaze inscrutable. "And if I refuse… if I insist on settling it right now?"
Sasuke's steps halted. His eyes glanced back over his shoulder.
ROAR…!!!
Their combined chakra and presence erupted, forming a terrifying storm of opposing pressure!
Madara's smile was pure madness.
—"HAHAHA… Fine. It's a deal. Whatever you say…"
