[Fourth Raikage A: Wait… Father's strongest spear just lost like that?]
[Third Raikage A: Hahaha! Being defeated by such a powerful youngster—I'm sure the me in that scene would be quite happy about it.]
[Dodai: I never expected the Kaguya clan's survivor to reach such a level.]
[Jiraiya: Kimimaro's Sage Mode is really impressive. And he can continuously use so much senjutsu chakra without any strain on his body.]
[Orochimaru: Perhaps that's due to the Kaguya clan's powerful physique. Still… well done, Kimimaro.]
[Kimimaro Kaguya: Yes. It is all thanks to Lord Orochimaru and Lord Nagi.]
[Mei Terumi: Ahem… Kimimaro, our Kirigakure is gradually recovering. Have you ever considered… returning? After all, it was once your homeland.]
[Kimimaro Kaguya: No interest. My duty is to protect Lord Orochimaru and Lord Nagi.]
[Mei Terumi: Sigh…]
If that doesn't work… maybe send a few girls to approach him. At least the Kaguya bloodline must be preserved.
The Screen Continues…Fourth Battlefield
"White Secret Technique: Chikamatsu's Three Treasures Suction Crush!"
Granny Chiyo used three of the Ten Puppets of Chikamatsu to generate a massive suction force.
All the puppets that Black Zetsu had prepared for Shamon were sucked in and destroyed.
Ōnoki seized the opportunity.
"Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"
A cone-shaped beam flashed forward.
Half of Shamon's body was instantly disintegrated.
"Sealing Unit!"
"Yes!"
The sealing team quickly used Binding Cloth Sealing Technique to seal Shamon.
Meanwhile…
Hailstones rained from the sky.
Gaara maneuvered across floating sand platforms, dodging the attacks of Gengetsu Hōzuki's Steaming Danger Tyranny clone.
After a while, the hail suddenly stopped.
Gaara's pupils shrank.
He immediately summoned a massive amount of sand for defense.
At that moment—
The clone of Steaming Danger Tyranny suddenly began swelling.
Then—
BOOM!
A violent explosion erupted.
Gaara's sand defense collapsed, and he was blasted dozens of meters away.
Yet after stabilizing himself, his expression remained calm.
"Shukaku… is it ready?"
"Yeah, Gaara. Do it."
"Alright."
Orange chakra surged across Gaara's body—
Then transformed into a dark red chakra cloak.
Gengetsu smiled with interest.
"Oh? Tailed Beast transformation? Interesting."
Although Tailed Beast transformations were powerful—
For someone like a Second Mizukage, who had once treated Tailed Beasts as mere research subjects, there was no reason to panic.
But then—
"Wait… that chakra amount…"
Gengetsu narrowed his eyes.
Gaara had entered Tailed Beast Chakra Mode — Stage Two.
With a wave of his hand, an overwhelming tsunami of sand surrounded the Steaming Danger Tyranny clone, preventing any escape.
The sand gradually condensed into a massive, ultra-dense pyramid.
"Desert Layered Imperial Funeral Seal!"
Sealing symbols began appearing across the pyramid's surface.
The markings connected together—
Forming a gigantic sealing formula.
Gengetsu sighed.
"So you can use the power of full Tailed Beast transformation while only in Stage Two… impressive, kid."
Before being sealed, he praised Gaara.
"Hey, eyebrowless kid."
"Hm?"
Gaara looked at him.
"You've got a good look about you… and you did well."
"You're gold."
"Thank you for the compliment."
Gaara nodded.
Then sealed Gengetsu Hōzuki.
Meanwhile…
With the help of Kabuto's Impure World Reincarnation shinobi, along with assistance from Samui, Shizuka, and Raino, most of White Zetsu and Black Zetsu's revived forces had been eliminated.
Shikaku issued an order:
"Inoichi, notify every division."
"Once all enemies are eliminated, leave a small guard force behind."
"The rest must immediately move to support Naruto, Sasuke, and Killer B."
"Yes!"
Watching the battlefield gradually turn in their favor, Shikaku sighed in relief.
But…
The battle was far from over.
Hidden in the shadows, Black Zetsu watched the situation and sighed.
To relieve the pressure on Obito's side, he had no choice but to reveal his trump card.
Fourth Battlefield…
Mū's split body suddenly formed hand seals.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
A coffin slowly rose from the ground.
Then—
CRACK
Cracks suddenly appeared across the coffin lid.
Seeing this, Mū immediately retreated.
BOOM!
The coffin lid exploded outward.
A man clad in armor stepped out slowly.
Uchiha Madara.
Madara spoke calmly.
"So the day has finally come."
"That kid Nagato… seems to have grown up."
Mū stared at him in shock.
"I never expected the one summoned this time would be…"
Madara looked at the bandaged man.
"You are…?"
Elsewhere on the Battlefield
Just as Gaara and the others were preparing to send support troops to Naruto—
A sensory ninja suddenly shouted in panic.
"Hey! What is that?!"
He pointed toward a nearby rocky ridge.
Everyone looked.
At first they thought it was the previously sealed Mū.
But the sensor ninja shook his head.
"Not him—someone else!"
Then—
Uchiha Madara slowly stepped forward, arms crossed, radiating overwhelming dominance.
Ōnoki's eyes widened.
"That is… Uchiha Madara."
Naruto's shadow clone was shocked.
"Wait… if that's Madara…"
"Then who is the Madara my real body is fighting?!"
Gaara replied calmly.
"I don't know."
"But… that person must be closely connected to Madara."
Allied Forces Headquarters
Suddenly Ao shouted:
"The Fourth Division has encountered a new Impure World Reincarnation enemy!"
"Who?"
Ao replied with shock:
"According to Lord Tsuchikage… it's Uchiha Madara."
"WHAT?!"
Tsunade, the Fourth Raikage, Shikaku, and the others were all stunned.
Another Madara?
They quickly calmed themselves and began analyzing the situation.
Why was the masked man impersonating Madara?
What connection did he have with the real Madara?
Shiranui Residence
Nagi suddenly sensed something.
He smiled faintly.
"Oh?"
"So the connection has been established."
"It seems… they should arrive soon."
However—
It was still unclear who Nagi was referring to.
At that moment, a small white snake slithered over.
It spoke with Orochimaru's hoarse voice.
"Nagi."
"The real Uchiha Madara has been revived through Impure World Reincarnation."
"Should I revive the First Hokage and the others to assist the Allied Forces?"
Nagi shook his head.
"That won't be necessary."
"Reinforcements have already been sent."
"I will let them deal with Madara."
"As for the First Hokage and the others—prepare them to face the Ten-Tails instead."
"I understand."
Orochimaru paused.
"But… can that person really defeat Uchiha Madara?"
Nagi smiled.
"Of course."
Hearing this, Orochimaru's interest was immediately piqued.
After all—
There were very few people in the ninja world capable of fighting the legendary Asura of the Uchiha—Madara himself.
