Bang!

The rock shattered, dust rose, and Madara crashed into a small hillock. Just as he landed, a large amount of sand wrapped around him. Madara looked somewhat ’surprised’ at the sand.

The sand gathered, instantly forming a triangle, and sealing spell style was formed.

"Sealing, successful."

Gaara formed seals with his hands, panting a bit, his face still full of dust.

"This should be fine now."

Tsunade pulled out a broken piece of wood from her abdomen. She had just activated the Creation Rebirth Technique, which allowed her to swiftly recover from her injuries while the technique was active.

"Isn’t this too simple?"

Ohnoki was not in good shape either. The four of them had been fiercely fighting Madara for nearly ten minutes.

"Although he’s got quite the reputation, facing the four of us at once inevitably exposes some flaws."

Though the Mizukage Agent said this, she felt a sense of unreality in her heart.

"Well done, combining the strength of four, you managed to seal one of my Wood Jutsu Clones."

Madara’s voice came, and the four shadows were somewhat shocked. The Mizukage Agent turned her head stiffly, now seeing Madara standing unscathed on high, looking down at the four of them.

The old woman, the Mizukage Agent, seemed to doubt life itself. They had battled Madara for nearly ten minutes and thought they had sealed him, but alas, it was just a Wood Jutsu Clone.

"So strong... it’s too much."

Feeling powerless, the old woman couldn’t think of any way to defeat such an enemy.

"Don’t give up."

Ohnoki shouted lowly, unhappy with the Mizukage Agent’s performance. In his view, no matter how powerful Madara was, they must not show fear, for he, Ohnoki of the Two Scales, was ready to die here. It was his duty, as Tsuchikage, to do so.

"It seems you are not just more capable, Ohnoki."

Madara recognized that Ohnoki’s gaze reflected a readiness to die. He too had once fought to the death for his clan, so he was all too familiar with that look.

Previously calling Ohnoki a brat, Madara now addressed him by name.

Madara bent his body slightly, bringing his hands together in front of him, his aura growing ever more terrifying.

Whoosh!

A surge of blue energy surrounded Madara, quickly forming into a human shape.

Soon, a gigantic Susanoo, tens of meters high, emerged. This Susanoo was no different from a human, fully clad in armor, with two long knives at its waist - this was the Complete Form of Susanoo.

The terrifying energy spread out. Gaara looked up at the Complete Form of Susanoo and swallowed hard.

The Mizukage Agent even stepped back a few steps; she couldn’t imagine how to fight against such a thing, its aura was too terrifying.

Ohnoki’s hand trembled, but he stepped forward. Fear was a natural bodily response, but stepping forward was driven by his belief.

"Impressive."

Madara, standing at the brow of the Complete Form Susanoo, slightly admired Ohnoki’s fearless resolve.

The Complete Form Susanoo crossed its arms and drew two long knives from its waist.

Bang, bang!

Two explosions sounded, dust surged fiercely, and the upper half of the Mizukage Agent flew out from the dust, blood gushing from her mouth.

"So, fast."

Whoosh~

A bullet flew over, shattering the Mizukage Agent’s head with a crack.

Thud, thud...

Tsunade and the other two fell to the ground. Ohnoki, not having stood up yet, spat out a mouthful of blood.

Boom, boom, boom...

Every step the Complete Form Susano’o took made the ground shake. Not only was this thing immensely powerful, but its speed was terrifying. The earlier Cross Slash, Su Xiao had seen the trajectory, but if he had to dodge it, he’d probably have a ninety percent chance. Su Xiao was adept at close combat, and there lies the advantage.

"I’ll give you a dignified way to die."

Madara controlled the Complete Form Susano’o and raised a long knife to slash at Ohnoki.

"Being chopped to mince, how is that a dignified way to die."

As Ohnoki’s words fell, the long knife, terrifyingly fast, had already descended.

With a crack, the long knife shattered, and the Complete Form Susano’o rapidly decomposed, revealing Madara inside.

"What is this?"

Madara looked at his hands, confused, his Ninjutsu unexpectedly canceled out of his control.

A misty white light burst from Madara’s body.

"The caster of Edo Tensei has a problem!"

Madara glanced at Su Xiao, eyes filled with inquiry.

"This was somewhat expected, that snake faced your two descendants alone."

"My descendants?"

Madara was even more confused.

"They are two brothers, one set of Mangekyo Sharingan, the other set of Eternal Mangekyo." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"I see, it seems there are remarkable talents among my descendants, and a pair of brothers at that."

Madara’s lips curled slightly, thinking of his own brother.

The Edo Tensei was undone, and Madara was about to dissipate. His body turned into large gray fragments, his soul peeling away from them, ascending to the sky. One must say, this was a bit of Madara’s twisted humor, his nature likely being feline, enjoying toying with his enemies.

Seeing the soon-to-ascend Madara, Tsunade, Ohnoki, and Gaara were stunned, then overjoyed. They had dealt with Madara.

Yet when the three shadows were full of joy, the surrounding fragments near Madara’s soul suddenly reversed, wrapping Madara’s soul again, forming a solid body.

The joy on the faces of the three shadows froze, while Bubu Wang beside Su Xiao held popcorn, its small eyes seemingly saying, "Surprise, aren’t you surprised?"

"What are you expecting?"

Madara, enveloped in white light, spoke.

"Why, why hasn’t he disappeared? The intelligence unit’s message was that Edo Tensei had been canceled."

Gaara murmured softly, but Madara heard it.

"The so-called Edo Tensei is a Forbidden Technique that summons the dead. It has a risk, as long as one knows the seal of Edo Tensei, the summoned dead can actively release the contract of Edo Tensei.

Coincidentally, I understand the seal of Edo Tensei. In this case, you seem to be in trouble, an undead body, infinite chakra, free action not controlled by the caster. If you have a chance, tell the caster Forbidden Techniques should not be used recklessly, but unfortunately, you have no chance."

Madara formed seals quickly and placed his hand on the ground.

"Edo Tensei, open."

The white light dissipated from Uchiha Madara’s body, seeing this, Ohnoki trembled and stood up, the battle was to continue.

Clang~

The crisp sound of a long knife unsheathing was heard, as Su Xiao walked over slowly, holding it in hand.

"I said, don’t make a move yet."

Madara was somewhat displeased.

"Madara, from the start of the battle until now, it’s been 15 minutes, during which you spent 10 minutes talking nonsense with these shadows. If you want to kill, do it cleanly, and talk directly to the corpses."

"Fighting them is just child’s play to me. Would you take children seriously?"

Madara was strong, but also arrogant.

"There’s something off about the situation on Obito’s side; that guy has become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki."

"I’ve sensed it, so what."

Madara still looked displeased.

"So what? If my Crow didn’t see wrongly, his heart was pierced by Naruto Uzumaki, and because of the strong life force of the Hashirama Cells, he didn’t die."

This time, Madara’s expression was no longer calm.

"If... the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki Obito decides to seal you, what do you think will happen? He’s now very strong, stronger than you, it seems he doesn’t need your power anymore."

"I’ll leave this to you, after all, we are cooperating."

Madara’s meaning was clear. After preliminary observation, he chose to cooperate with Su Xiao.

Madara stomped the ground underfoot and vanished instantly, leaving the already half-dead three shadows. Su Xiao’s choice was correct; Madara indeed preferred to leave enemies half-dead before moving on to other things.

Su Xiao, unlike Madara, said no needless words, and headed straight for the three shadows.
