"Sage Art: Prison-Suppressing Wisdom King!"
The golden lake, several miles wide, suddenly began to boil, as if a restless volcano lay hidden beneath its surface.
Instantly—
Boom!
A colossal arm, as thick and long as a skyscraper, emerged from the lake, gripping the earth firmly.
Boom!
Another identical golden arm reached out, grasping the opposite side of the ground.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Soon, four arms extended in succession, each of the six arms pressing firmly against the earth, then suddenly exerting immense force.
Boom!
The ground seemed to sink under the overwhelming power, leaving massive handprints etched into the surface.
Under the combined pull of the six arms, the figure hidden within the golden lake finally revealed itself completely.
Roar!!!
A roar, like an ancient thunderous cry, echoed through the air!
A violent hurricane swept forth, carrying with it thick layers of yellow sand from the ground.
The source of this fierce wind was the sonic wave expelled from the mouths of three massive heads.
Boom!!
Once the giant stood firm, its full form became visible.
It was a pure gold statue of a three-headed, six-armed Wisdom King!
Each of its heads bore a different expression: one with eyes wide like bells, bared fangs, and hair blazing upward like golden flames, exuding a fury that seemed inexhaustible; another with gentle brows and kind eyes, a smile at its corners, embodying compassion for the world; and the last with closed eyes and a cold, indifferent demeanor, its mouth set in a wooden line.
Its entire body appeared as if forged from refined gold, resembling a mighty warrior.
The statue wore only a skirt of feather-like scales around its waist, while its muscular physique, with large blocks of metal-textured muscles rising high, showcased a perfect blend of power and wildness.
"Huh?!"
"What is this?!"
"The power of this guy is terrifying?!"
On the other side, the battered Susano'o struggled to stand again, staring blankly in shock.
Although the statue summoned by Sōmi was only about 300 meters tall, the power within it felt like a volcano on the verge of eruption, forcibly restrained, confining its violent force within the golden body.
"Hmph!"
"Uchiha Madara?"
"Mere gravel, not even close to me..."
Standing between the three heads of the statue, Sōmi glanced disdainfully at Madara.
"Huh?!"
An enraged Uchiha Madara burst into laughter once more.
"Hahaha!"
"Who would have thought that I, Uchiha Madara, would be treated with such disdain one day!"
"Though you are indeed strong..."
"But the pride of the Uchiha clan..."
"And my dignity, cannot be sullied!!"
"Ah!!!"
In a fit of rage, Madara channeled all the remaining Chakra within him into Susano'o.
Whoosh!
The fierce wind whipped up, causing Madara's long hair to flutter wildly, his face filled with resolute determination.
As a man who once stood at the pinnacle of the shinobi world, his pride would not allow others to tarnish it!
The fully restored Susano'o drew its two giant blades, slashing diagonally at Sōmi's statue from both sides.
Clang! Clang!
Two sharp metallic clashes rang out.
Yet the three-headed, six-armed statue simply swung two of its arms effortlessly, blocking Susano'o's blades.
The blades, capable of cleaving mountains and rivers, could only spark faintly against the robust golden arms, failing even to break through the defense.
After all, the power of Senjutsu becomes more evident in the later stages.
This is clearly demonstrated by Naruto, who absorbed Natural Energy from the Nine-Tails, matching Sasuke who unleashed Indra's Arrow after absorbing the power of nine Tailed Beasts.
Refining Senjutsu Chakra requires a substantial base amount of one's own Chakra; without sufficient Chakra, the refined Senjutsu Chakra cannot achieve high levels of quantity or quality.
However, Sōmi, having absorbed the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path and all nine Tailed Beasts, possessed a terrifyingly vast amount of Chakra. The Senjutsu Chakra he refined and compressed far exceeded Madara's imagination.
"What is that expression?"
"Do you finally understand the gap between us?"
Sōmi taunted again.
But his actions showed no hesitation.
The statue's other four massive fists, as large as meteors, suddenly twisted together, smashing forcefully into the chest of Madara's Susano'o.
Boom!!!
A violent white shockwave erupted, followed by a loud explosion.
Madara's Susano'o, as if struck by a planet, was sent flying. The over 200-meter-tall Susano'o crumbled like a clay doll, its body disintegrating from the chest outward.
Upon closer inspection, one could see fine black lines appearing where the statue's fists struck. Within these lines lay a shadowy, ominous space, seemingly harboring another eerie, terrifying dimension.
"Ugh..."
Madara spat out a mouthful of blood, but the forceful wind from the statue's punch caused the blood to splash back onto his own face.
Madara's consciousness was already fading. To describe it accurately, the power of Sōmi's statue's fists was akin to Might Guy's ultimate technique unleashed with his life force.
"Ugh..."
After an unknown duration, Madara's consciousness returned.
His face was covered in blood, a picture of utter disarray.
The blazing sun in the sky seemed blinding, its intense light causing his Rinnegan to squint slightly.
"Why..."
"Is the light golden..."
"Hmm..."
In his dazed state, Madara failed to realize that Sōmi had already maneuvered his statue to stand before him, gazing down at him like an ant.
"How pathetic..."
"A shattered body can't even dance anymore?"
Sōmi's voice reached Madara's ears clearly.
"Ugh!"
Madara's remaining Rinnegan suddenly opened wide. For someone to steal his lines and mock him so openly—it was unthinkable that such a thing would happen to him!
Madara struggled to rise, his hands digging into the sandy ground, staggering before finally managing to stand up.
"Limbo: Border Jail!"
Crack!
The space around Madara instantly froze, immobilizing his body completely.
"How could it be..."
"You can even negate my Rinnegan's abilities..."
Madara's mind was once again overwhelmed by waves of shock.
He strained his eyes upward.
Sunlight pierced through the gaps in the statue, mingling with dazzling golden rays, stabbing precisely into his eyes.
He tried to activate his Rinnegan abilities to free himself, but no matter how much he exerted his ocular power, the Rinnegan remained unresponsive, as if it were in a state of shutdown.
"These purple..."
"Are they caused by those techniques..."
As Madara refocused on his surroundings, he suddenly noticed dense purple symbols beginning to shimmer, resembling an unusual purple leaf vein spreading and clinging to the void.
"Ugh!"
Abruptly, the beautiful spectacle vanished, accompanied by a sharp pain in his left eye, plunging Madara's world into endless darkness.
Soon.
Madara's years of combat instincts triggered intense alarms throughout his body, causing the veins on his forehead to pulse violently.
Unfortunately, even if his will to survive were ten times stronger, willpower alone could not transform into real power.
Whoosh!!!
The air screamed, the oppressive wind crashing against him. Madara's body moved ever so slightly.
Even in the face of death, Uchiha Madara showed no fear, standing tall and unwavering.
"Hashirama..."
"My dreams have shattered..."
"The future of the shinobi world is no longer in our hands..."
"Perhaps... this time..."
"We can finally drink together as comrades..."
Sōmi controlled the statue's massive fist, smashing down mercilessly.
Boom!!!
The earth shook violently, vast clouds of dust exploded upward, forming a mushroom cloud.
Subsequently, the cracked sandy ground spouted a massive jet of water, indicating that the underground water had been struck to the surface.
