The cataclysmic devastation made the already rough, rocky, and cratered landscape even more riddled with holes.
And when the technique ended, the ninjas, whether rising from the water, from beneath rocks, or from the protection of Wood Release, all looked around and were stunned.
The Allied Shinobi Forces, which had been a continuous, dense mass of people, were now sparse and scattered.
Moreover, looking around, the terrain had been completely altered.
Inevitably, many ninjas were injured and lay on the ground, groaning in pain.
Tsunade got up from the ground, gritting her teeth, and shouted, "Shizune, Sakura, let's combine our strength to summon the Slug."
"If we work together, we can summon about half of the Slug's main body."
Shizune and Haruno Sakura nodded in unison, "Yes!"
Immediately, the three of them performed the Summoning Jutsu simultaneously, summoning a giant Slug.
Then, this giant Slug rapidly split apart and crawled towards the injured ninjas.
Previously, time had been too short to summon the Slug Sage.
At this moment, Clone Kagami nearby's gaze sharpened: "Finally, he has revived!"
Whoosh!
His figure instantly disappeared.
Above the Ten-Tails.
Spiral White Zetsu released Nagato, who was being enveloped. Black Zetsu was still attached to Nagato.
Beside them, Uchiha Madara's eyes moved, but it was as if a layer of dirt covering them fell off, revealing a pair of pitch-black, hollow eyes.
Spiral White Zetsu immediately plucked the Rinnegan from the weakened Nagato, and Black Zetsu also detached from Nagato, attaching itself to Spiral White Zetsu.
At that very moment, Clone Kagami flashed, taking Nagato away, and then appeared beside Konan, who was also among the Allied Forces.
Following that, Clone Mido also appeared.
"Nagato!"
Seeing the emaciated Nagato with completely white hair, Konan couldn't help but shed tears.
Mido squatted down and said, "Don't worry, although he's weak, he won't die."
Using the Rinne Rebirth Justu doesn't necessarily mean death; it depends on the amount of Chakra consumed.
Of course, for ordinary ninjas, using this technique would completely deplete their Chakra, leading to their death.
However, Sarutobi Asuma had left a trace of Sage Power within Nagato.
Even if Nagato's Chakra was completely exhausted from reviving Uchiha Madara, this Sage Power would protect him.
Taking out a Sage Talisman and placing it on Nagato's forehead, Mido immediately activated his Mangekyo Sharingan, converting the Sage Power within the talisman into immense life force and injecting it into Nagato.
Instantly, Nagato's emaciated body rapidly recovered, and his white hair turned red again in the blink of an eye, but his eyes remained hollow.
"It seems Uchiha Madara has revived," Nagato said.
Mido nodded, placed his hand over Nagato's eyes, and used Yin-Yang Release to create a pair of eyes for Nagato.
And at this moment.
Above the Susanoo, Uchiha Itachi suddenly activated the Amaterasu.
Uchiha Madara, who had just had the eyes implanted, was engulfed by black flames.
Uchiha Madara still kept his eyes closed, turning his head slightly. "Mere grit is no match for me."
Naruto, however, shouted to Uchiha Itachi, "Big Brother Itachi, you can't attack him with just Ninjutsu. This guy can absorb Ninjutsu."
Above the Ten-Tails, Uchiha Madara scoffed, "This little bit of power is not worth me absorbing."
As he spoke, his armor fell away, revealing his upper body.
The armor that was burning with black flames was then separated by the Ten-Tails, with a piece of flesh sent to the ground, completely unharmed.
Feeling the beating of his heart and the surging blood within him, Uchiha Madara smiled. "Finally, I can fight properly!"
"Hahaha..."
Uchiha Madara laughed maniacally, then suddenly opened his eyes, revealing the Rinnegan.
And in the next moment, his figure disappeared.
Immediately after, the Tailed Beasts were flung into the air and smashed down.
"This is bad, Kushina, Naruto!"
Namikaze Minato's pupils constricted, and his figure disappeared.
Uchiha Madara's invisible clones quickly knocked the seven Tailed Beasts to the ground, but just as they were about to grab Naruto and Uzumaki Kushina, their grasp missed.
"Flying Thunder God Technique!"
Uchiha Madara glanced at Namikaze Minato, who had taken away the two Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and then his gaze fell on Senju Hashirama.
Meanwhile, the Ten-Tails opened its mouth, and chakra chains shot out, binding Killer B and the others who had resumed human form.
"B!"
The Fourth Raikage roared and immediately charged forward at top speed.
But before he could even touch them, he was blasted away by an invisible attack, crashing to the ground and spitting up large mouthfuls of blood, unable to get back up.
This scene left all the Allied Shinobi Forces stunned.
Even Senju Hashirama and Tsunade were utterly shocked.
"Is this the true power of the Rinnegan?"
Senju Hashirama's heart trembled.
Tsunade stared at Uchiha Madara and shouted, "Be careful, this guy has four invisible clones!"
She had already completed Sage Transformation and could faintly sense the four clones Uchiha Madara had created with Limbo: Border Jail.
Upon hearing this, Senju Hashirama immediately entered Sage Mode and sensed carefully, indeed detecting the presence of Uchiha Madara's clones.
Immediately, six Truth-Seeking Balls appeared, and he shouted, "Ninja of the Yamanaka Clan, notify all shinobi of the Allied Forces, except for the Kage, to retreat immediately."
These were six clone-like bodies: Clone Uka, Clone Mito, Clone Henmei, along with Namikaze Minato's family, and Senju Tobirama, who appeared beside Senju Hashirama.
"First Hokage, let's join forces to hold off Uchiha Madara, and the Kage will be responsible for rescuing the Jinchuriki!" Clone Uka said.
"Good!"
Senju Hashirama nodded.
The next moment, Clone Uka, Clone Mito, Clone Henmei, and Senju Hashirama attacked in unison.
Clone Kagami, Clone Kamui, and Clone Tenjin Himitsu each faced one of Uchiha Madara's clones.
These three, along with Clone Uka and the others, were part of the original Tenshin Group of six. After going offline, they transplanted Sharingan and all evolved into Mangekyo.
Clone Kagami's Mangekyo eye technique had been used before; the Heavenly Water Realm directly trapped one of Uchiha Madara's Limbo clones within a barrier.
Clone Kamui, however, used his Mangekyo eye technique for the first time. A black divine mountain suddenly appeared and, with a boom, suppressed Uchiha Madara's Limbo clone.
Kamui Mountain!
This was a divine mountain capable of suppressing everything, rendering even Space-Time Ninjutsu ineffective.
On the other side, Clone Tenjin Himitsu also used his Mangekyo eye technique for the first time.
He unleashed powerful chakra, condensing numerous arms that clenched their fists and struck the Limbo clone.
At the same time, the fists of these chakra arms were covered in Amaterasu's black flames.
His eye techniques were Amaterasu in his left eye and Tenjin in his right.
The latter could freely control chakra for shape transformation. This burst of output was akin to Kaguya's Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack.
However, its power was diminished by countless times.
But Uchiha Madara's Limbo clone possessed abilities almost equal to his own. It instantly activated Susanoo and, the moment its Susanoo was destroyed, raised its hand to use Almighty Push.
The chakra arms exploded, and Clone Tenjin Himitsu was sent flying.
Almost simultaneously, on Clone Kagami's side, the Limbo clone activated its Perfect Susanoo, breaking through the Heavenly Water Realm.
Clone Kagami also activated his Susanoo, creating a stalemate.
The only one who successfully suppressed a Limbo clone was Clone Kamui.
With Kamui Mountain's suppression, even the Limbo clone couldn't move or activate Susanoo.
Uchiha Madara's fourth Limbo clone, however, faced Senju Hashirama, who possessed the Truth-Seeking Balls.
However, Senju Hashirama's speed was slower than the clones like Kagami. The first attack with a black rod was dodged by the Limbo clone.
When Senju Hashirama attacked with the second Truth-Seeking Ball, he was kicked away by the Limbo clone.
Immediately after, the Limbo clone activated its Perfect Susanoo. The unseen chakra blades slashed down, and Senju Hashirama barely blocked them with the black rod formed by the Truth-Seeking Balls.
"Madara is so much stronger than he was back then!"
Senju Hashirama was shocked.
The four of them blocked the Limbo clones.
Tsunade, Namikaze Minato, Senju Tobirama, Naruto, and the others immediately moved forward, cutting the chains that were extracting the Tailed Beasts and rescuing the many Tailed Beast Jinchuriki.
Then, everyone's attention turned towards Uchiha Madara's true body.
Clone Uka, Clone Mito, and Clone Henmei all activated their Rinnegan simultaneously.
The Golden Rinnegan, the Purple Rinnegan, and the Blue Rinnegan.
"How do you have Rinnegan?"
Uchiha Madara was sent flying by Uka and Bianming, looking at them in disbelief.
The three pairs of Rinnegan before him completely overturned his understanding.
"Madara, you're obsolete!"
Uka chuckled lightly, his Perfect Susanoo covering him as golden chains wrapped around Uchiha Madara.
Although shocked, Uchiha Madara didn't forget the situation and immediately activated his own Perfect Susanoo, cleaving the approaching golden chains with one sword and blocking the golden Chakra Blade swung by Uka.
However, Clone Bianming, who had not yet activated his Susanoo at this time, unleashed his Rinnegan's unique ocular jutsu.
Space-Time Storm!
In an instant, the space around Uchiha Madara twisted and cracked, swirling like a storm.
Crack, crack!
Even the Perfect Susanoo couldn't resist this space-time storm at this moment, collapsing and disintegrating rapidly under Uchiha Madara's shocked gaze.
"How is this possible..."
Uchiha Madara's face contorted.
He had obtained his Rinnegan through immense hardship, and now, upon his revival, just as he was displaying its powerful might, three pairs of Rinnegan suddenly appeared.
How frustrating this was!
However, he was, after all, a seasoned warrior, and the more enraged he became, the more he could unleash his power.
Almighty Push!
An invisible shockwave swept out in all directions.
The descending golden Chakra Blade and the coiling golden chains shattered simultaneously.
But Bianming's Space-Time Storm was not entirely broken through.
Puff, puff, puff!
Wounds appeared on Uchiha Madara's body, blood flowing out, deep enough to see bone.
But that was all.
After all, he had already expended some of his strength breaking through the Perfect Susanoo.
As his body fell rapidly, the wounds on Uchiha Madara's body began to heal swiftly.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Above the Ten-Tails, Clone Mido, who possessed a Purple Rinnegan, raised a hand and blasted Spiral White Zetsu away, immediately activating his unique Rinnegan ocular jutsu.
Soul Seize!
This was a powerful ocular jutsu capable of remotely snatching an enemy's soul.
The Ten-Tails naturally had no soul, but it contained will.
One part was the will of Uchiha Madara controlling it, and the other part was the will of Ōtsutsuki Kaguya.
Therefore, at this moment, both of these wills were controlled by Mido, being pulled bit by bit out of the Ten-Tails' body.
The Ten-Tails, which had been about to attack Mido, immediately froze.
Spiral White Zetsu, who had been blown away, and the Black Zetsu on him watched in shock.
Black Zetsu felt a level of terror comparable to Uchiha Madara's.
"This guy... has controlled the will belonging to Mother within the Ten-Tails."
"And where did he get the Rinnegan?"
Black Zetsu suddenly detached from Spiral White Zetsu and looked up at the sky.
There were two more pairs of Rinnegan there.
"That guy is Uka, he's Sarutobi Asuma's clone..."
Black Zetsu stared intently at the two figures in the sky: "Could their Rinnegan have evolved from the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan?"
"How is that possible?"
"Madara himself spent a very long time awakening the Rinnegan back then. Even if Sarutobi Asuma simultaneously obtained Hashirama Cells and Madara's cells, he couldn't have evolved the Rinnegan this quickly, let alone three pairs!"
Black Zetsu gritted his teeth: "Damn it..."
"Obito and that traitor Orochimaru!"
At this moment, he realized that Uchiha Obito and Orochimaru were both spies for Sarutobi Asuma.
Even Nagato had betrayed the Akatsuki and was connected to Sarutobi Asuma.
Madara's cells must have fallen into Sarutobi Asuma's hands either through Uchiha Obito or Orochimaru.
"Is the plan going to fail?"
"No... absolutely not!"
Black Zetsu was filled with unwillingness, and his body slowly burrowed into the ground.
Spiral White Zetsu cried out repeatedly, "This is bad, very bad!"
"The Ten-Tails is controlled, and Lord Madara is at a disadvantage!"
"Is Lord Madara going to be defeated so soon after showing his might?"
"If that happens, as Lord Madara's subordinate, won't I also be in trouble?"
...
"Rinnegan!"
Uchiha Fugaku looked at the three figures in the distance, his eyes burning with desire. "Asuma-sensei actually possesses three pairs of Rinnegan, so..."
He couldn't help but look at his son, Uchiha Itachi.
"Itachi has awakened the Mangekyo and obtained the Sage Cursed Seal. The next step is the Rinnegan."
Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but fantasize, then his gaze fell upon Uchiha Shisui.
He knew that if the Rinnegan could be awakened, Shisui would surely achieve it before his son Itachi!
But, no matter what.
If the Rinnegan were awakened, the Uchiha Clan would reach unprecedented heights!
...
It wasn't just Uchiha Madara, Black Zetsu, and Uchiha Fugaku who were shocked.
There were also Onoki, the Fourth Raikage who had just had his injuries healed by Haruno Sakura, and Mei Terumi, along with other powerful ninjas.
"That guy... he has Rinnegan too!"
"And three pairs of them!"
Onoki broke out in a cold sweat.
Uchiha Madara, with his Rinnegan, was already terrifyingly powerful, and Sarutobi Asuma...
He could already imagine that in the future Ninja World, even if all other ninjas united, they would still be no match for Konoha, and perhaps not even a match for Sarutobi Asuma.
Mei Terumi couldn't help but say, "Asuma-sensei, with three pairs of Rinnegan, is still wary of that shadowy figure. Just how powerful must they be?"
"No matter what, at least Uchiha Madara is at a disadvantage now!"
The Fourth Raikage said.
...
Kamui dimension.
Kakashi pierced Uchiha Obito's heart with Raikiri.
The two of them staged a fake fight, and Uchiha Obito intentionally let Kakashi pierce his heart to break the talisman left by Uchiha Madara.
The two of them sat facing each other.
Uchiha Obito asked, "How is Rin? I didn't see her on the battlefield."
Kakashi replied, "Rin was assigned by Asuma to protect the Feudal Lord."
"The Feudal Lord?"
Uchiha Obito said without hesitation, "Those guys should have all been dealt with during this opportunity!"
Kakashi said casually, "Even if they aren't dealt with, after this war, they won't be able to control the country anymore."
In reality, the Feudal Lord of the Land of Fire had become a nominal existence.
There were people who betrayed their class, but there would never be a class that betrayed its class.
When the Feudal Lord of the Land of Fire urgently wanted to form his own ninja army, and Konoha went along with it and helped with the training, the Feudal Lord had already lost.
As a large number of samurai in the Land of Fire became ninjas, they were no longer utilized by the Feudal Lord.
Furthermore, descendants of the Land of Fire's nobility, wealthy merchants, and even many officials became ninjas, and they naturally began to be integrated into the ninja class bit by bit.
Coupled with economic and medical infiltration, the Feudal Lord had already lost control of the country before the great war began.
"I really hope the unification of the Ninja World and days without war come quickly!"
Uchiha Obito said with anticipation.
Kakashi also looked forward with affirmation, "It will be very soon!"
"Are you going to marry Rin?"
Uchiha Obito suddenly asked.
Kakashi was stunned and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Uchiha Obito laughed, "Their child, how about leaving their upbringing to me?"
Kakashi opened his mouth, "Obito..."
