Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Immortal’s ultimate move: Dust Escape!

Boom!

At this moment, the standoff between Lord Mu and Uchiha Madara had already attracted the attention of the Uchiha clansmen.

Such a huge commotion made it difficult not to attract attention.

"Amazing, someone actually dares to challenge Lord Madara!"

"Oh my god, Lord Madara is going to fight that Bandage Man!"

"Should we go tell Hashirama-sama?"

"Huh? Is it necessary to call Hashirama-sama for this? Is that Bandage Man really worth calling Hashirama-sama and Lord Madara to team up against?"

"No, I'm afraid the Bandage Man will be killed by Lord Madara…"

A group of Uchiha clansmen watched with expressions of amusement and excitement.

Bang! Boom!

The battle between Lord Mu and Uchiha Madara began!

Uchiha Madara chose to deactivate Susanoo.

He intended to engage in a close-quarters combat.

Uchiha Madara flew out with a "whoosh."

Mu, also utilizing his flight, confronted Uchiha Madara head-on!

Bang! Bang!

The two collided!

Mu was immediately sent flying by Uchiha Madara's impact.

"As expected of a man who can arm wrestle Hashirama in Taijutsu."

"Earth Release: Added-Weight Rock Technique!"

Mu's arm instantly went numb, and at the same time, his body became heavier, causing him to stop.

"Weak!"

The first exchange made Uchiha Madara feel that this person's Taijutsu was not particularly good.

However, Madara was strategically disdainful of his enemies, but tactically serious about them.

Uchiha Madara did not relax but launched a continuous assault on Mu!

The next second, Uchiha Madara appeared beside Mu with a Body Flicker Technique.

He delivered a side kick towards Mu's body!

Mu had already sensed Uchiha Madara the moment he appeared.

"Earth Release: Super Added-Weight Technique!"

He hastily increased his weight to the maximum, and at the same time, a rock armor appeared on his body.

Bang!

Uchiha Madara kicked the rock on Mu's body.

Immediately after, the rock instantly turned into mud, firmly trapping Uchiha Madara's foot.

Before Uchiha Madara could break free,

Mu formed a hand seal with one hand.

"Earth Release: Rock Arm!"

The rock on his arm suddenly transformed, forming a giant rock hand that tightly gripped Uchiha Madara!

The next second, Mu's fist quickly turned into rock, forming a rock fist.

"Earth Release: Super Added-Weight: Rock Fist Technique!"

Mu smashed towards Uchiha Madara with immense force!

"Susanoo!"

Uchiha Madara was expressionless and activated the skeletal Susanoo.

Boom!

The rock fist and the Susanoo skeleton collided, erupting in a deafening roar!

In an instant, the entire surrounding area shook.

The powerful Chakra of both also burst forth instantly!

Boom!!!!!!!

At the same time,

Senju Hashirama was sweating it out in a casino.

"Hahahaha, what a joy, what a joy!"

Senju Hashirama was shaking the dice.

He had just finished communicating with the envoy from Iwagakure, and the two villages had established friendly relations, so he was in a great mood.

Hashirama felt that people could truly live in harmony in the future.

"Ah! The clan leader lost again, haha!"

A Senju clansman said with a laugh.

When he saw the dice roll, Senju Hashirama's face darkened, and then he burst into laughter.

"Today, I'm triumphant in diplomacy, but unlucky in the casino!"

"Hahahahahahaha…"

Upon hearing this, all the Senju clansmen burst into laughter.

Suddenly!

A loud bang came!

Whoosh!

Senju Hashirama seemed to sense something, stopped laughing, and looked out the window with a serious expression.

Everyone looked at each other, not yet having time to ask.

Senju Hashirama suddenly stood up, his expression changing: "Oh no!"

Then his figure disappeared!

On the other side, Senju Tobirama was working in the Konoha building.

At this time, the Konoha building was not as majestic as in later generations; it was just a relatively tall building, mostly constructed from wood and stone.

Senju Tobirama was busy planning the future layout of the village, as well as a series of construction investments and commercial aspects.

"Nothing happened today either…"

Senju Tobirama sighed as he looked at the quiet and peaceful night.

In the turbulent era, he often had to get up in the middle of the night to fight, but now there was no need to worry at all.

"Report, Tobirama-sama, the village's female dog is pregnant."

A Senju Ninja knelt on the ground and said.

Senju Tobirama frowned upon hearing this, muttering, "The naturally evil and cunning Uchiha…"

Just as Senju Tobirama was complaining about the Uchiha again,

A familiar and evil Chakra was suddenly sensed by Tobirama.

Senju Tobirama's expression changed slightly.

"Not good! Uchiha Madara is causing trouble again!"

Senju Tobirama suddenly stood up, then left using the Body Flicker Technique.

...

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Mu and Uchiha Madara were rapidly exchanging blows.

"Don't underestimate my experience from the turbulent era!"

Uchiha Madara said while engaging in Taijutsu with Mu.

"You came from the turbulent era, and so did I!"

Mu said coldly.

"Hmph!"

Uchiha Madara's eyes narrowed, realizing through the recent battle.

This Bandage Man named Mu was indeed strong.

His perception and reaction were not inferior to Tobirama's.

He was roughly at Izuna's level, slightly stronger than Izuna.

(Note: Mu and Tobirama are both officially recognized as Ninjas with extremely strong perception.)

"Take this!"

Uchiha Madara's body suddenly displayed the second stage of Susanoo, a giant arm wielding a large sword swung down forcefully!

Mu dared not be careless.

"Earth Release: Stone Golem Technique!"

Boom!

A rock giant emerged from the ground, solidly taking Uchiha Madara's slash with its body!

"You caught it? Then… what about the third stage!"

Uchiha Madara's Susanoo surged again, instantly growing legs from its previous second stage, becoming three times larger than before!

At the same time,

Susanoo's four hands condensed four long swords.

All four swords swung down, fiercely striking Mu's Stone Golem!

Boom!!

Immediately, the ground shook, and smoke filled the air!

"Teacher!!"

Ōnoki, seeing the situation, showed an anxious expression from afar.

He couldn't help but worry about Mu's life and death.

When the smoke cleared,

The Stone Golem was seen holding Uchiha Madara's four Susanoo greatswords with its bare hands!

The ground beneath Mu and the Stone Golem had deeply sunken in.

"Interesting…"

A flicker of surprise passed through Uchiha Madara's eyes.

The rock giant summoned by this Bandage Man was somewhat similar to Hashirama's Wood Golem Technique; he didn't expect to still not defeat this person even at the third stage.

"Ah ha! Ah ha…"

Mu was panting heavily.

In the original work, Ōnoki's Stone Golem Technique directly required Madara to use Wood Release to defend against, so it naturally wasn't afraid of Uchiha Madara's third stage Susanoo.

Just as Uchiha Madara was considering whether to activate the fourth stage of Susanoo,

Mu seized this opening, a glimmer of quick wit flashing in his eyes.

"Got him!"

At the same time, the main body, which had been accumulating power in the shadows, finally found an opportunity!

That's right.

The one fighting Uchiha Madara all this time was Mu's clone.

Before the battle began, to avoid being instantly killed,

Mu used Dustless Bewildering Cover to conceal his main body in the shadows, waiting for the right moment.

The clone confronted Uchiha Madara head-on.

This was also why he hadn't used Dust Release all this time.

Firstly, the clone could not use Dust Release.

Secondly, Mu wanted to kill with one blow and couldn't let Uchiha Madara figure out the pattern of Dust Release.

If the clone was instantly killed due to too great a difference, then he could preserve his main body and retreat directly.

If they could contend for a bit, then the clone would create an opportunity for the main body, and the main body could then seize the chance to unleash Dust Release, aiming for an instant kill!

"Look behind you?"

Suddenly, Uchiha Madara felt a chill down his spine!

(This was just a flourish, not actually prompting Uchiha Madara to look behind him.)

As everyone knows, Uchiha Madara's weakness is his back.

Behind Madara, a Mu had appeared at some unknown time!

With a clap of his hands, a giant white pillar of light was attacking him!

"It's here! It's Master's strongest killing move, capable of even shattering rock!"

Ōnoki exclaimed upon seeing the Dust Release.

Unfortunately, his master had not yet taught it to him.

"Ninjutsu Killing Move: Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!

The white pillar of light was like a divine punishment for Uchiha Madara.

Pouring down from the heavens.

Uchiha Madara felt a sudden chill and his scalp tingle upon seeing this white pillar of light.

If he were hit by this Ninjutsu, he would undoubtedly die!

This wasn't a guess, but a strong person's premonition!

Although he had Izanagi, a trump card even Hashirama didn't know about, there was no time to activate it now.

Izanagi needed to be set up in advance.

Moreover, did he have to sacrifice his Mangekyo just to avoid death once?

"Susanoo!!"

Uchiha Madara instantly burst forth with full power, directly pushing his Susanoo to the fourth stage!

Buzz!!!

Mu's main body was releasing its full power, just about to unleash a fatal blow.

However, a powerful wave of air directly struck the main body, sending it flying!

"Damn it!"

Mu cursed inwardly. This Dust Release was powerful, but its recovery time was longer than his life!

If it could be instantly cast and instantly attacked, and anyone hit by it was gone, he might even have been able to kill Uchiha Madara!

"Dustless Bewildering Cover!"

Mu's main body hastily used Dustless Bewildering Cover, disappearing into nothingness again, leaving the clone to continue fighting Uchiha Madara.

After the residual effects of Dust Release and Susanoo subsided,

Uchiha Madara stumbled out of the white light, his face still filled with shock!

"It actually destroyed my Susanoo in one go!"

Uchiha Madara looked with uncertainty at the ground that had vanished into thin air due to the Dust Release's aftermath.

Just now, he was preparing to summon an even stronger fourth-stage Susanoo to defend, but his Susanoo was actually gone!

Yes, it was directly annihilated, disappearing into thin air!

When Hashirama fought his Susanoo, it was in the form of shattering it, not disappearing into thin air like this!

Fortunately, he made a decisive decision to abandon Susanoo, otherwise, he would truly have died!

Recalling the Ninjutsu from just now, Uchiha Madara felt a chill down his spine!

There was such a powerful killing move in the world!

This guy's Ninjutsu was clearly not on the same level as his own.

"What kind of Ninjutsu is this!?"

Uchiha Madara stared intently at Mu.

"Do you think I'm some kind of 'answer-all-questions' alien? Would I be stupid enough to tell you my information?"

"Are you perhaps thinking I'm an idiot?"

Mu naturally wouldn't tell Uchiha Madara his information.

Uchiha Madara's face darkened.

He also felt that his question was a bit foolish; indeed, how could an enemy possibly give away information about themselves?
