I am the most popular character in Naruto!

Madara Uchiha roared in disbelief, "Chiaki Senju! Who are you?!"

As life force surged in, Madara Uchiha's skin began to regain its rosy hue, his wrinkles began to smooth out, and his power returned layer by layer.

"Nobody..."

Qianqiu said calmly, "I'm just a...experiment."

"Experiment... Tobirama Senju!"

Madara Uchiha realized what was happening. His white hair had now completely turned black, and his entire body was brimming with vitality.

"It's time to finish."

"The strongest ninja in the world, stay young and go to that world."

Chiaki gazed at Uchiha Madara, who had regained his youthful appearance, as the jewel-green light around him began to shift towards a blue glow.

Having recovered, Madara Uchiha was about to do something when he suddenly realized that all the power in his body had disappeared.

"...?!"

He tried to accumulate chakra, but to his surprise, all the accumulated chakra flowed down his hand and into Chiaki.

"Eight Gates Formation, Seventh Gate, Gate of Shock, Open."

Chiaki's voice was calm, but the chakra within her was anything but.

In an instant, the emerald green turned into sapphire blue, and a massive amount of chakra surged out, shattering the entire sky.

At the same time, all the damage that the Eight Gates had inflicted on him was transferred to Madara Uchiha by Chiaki.

Chapter 400 A Desperate Gamble

"This is--?!"

Madara Uchiha's eyes widened as he stared at Chiaki's sapphire-blue body, and he couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise.

"My power is flowing towards you, but my body is suffering from the harm you are causing..."

"Offerings to the gods..."

"A messenger from Death..."

Madara Uchiha managed to stand up straight and stared intently at Chiaki.

"I really didn't expect... that you were actually a member of the Uzumaki clan!"

"Your original name shouldn't be Senju Chiaki, right?"

"Let me think... According to that clan's naming conventions, your name should be..."

"Uzumaki Kaori".

Chiaki's expression shifted slightly; she truly hadn't expected to hear about herself from Uchiha Madara's mouth.

"Whirlpool... Xiangqiu?"

Chiaki murmured the name, but quickly shook her head and said with a smile, "No matter what I was called before, my name now is Senju Chiaki, and that will never change."

"...Ah, a thousand hands, a thousand autumns."

Madara Uchiha raised his head, looked at the sky, and calmly said, "In the end, to die in this manner is a unique experience..."

He no longer had the ability to fight, nor the desire to fight.

He persevered for decades with this aging, frail body, but ultimately met his end.

"I feel honored to personally bid farewell to the strongest ninja in the world."

Chiaki gently swayed her hands, lifted her light purple kimono, and gave Uchiha Madara a princess-like bow.

"Hmph, I didn't get enough of this battle. I hope I can have a real fight with you next time."

Madara Uchiha refocused his gaze on Chiaki's face and said proudly, "If you're still only at this level, you probably can't defeat me!"

"Then you don't need to worry about it."

Qianqiu smiled slightly and gracefully resumed her posture.

She extended her white finger and nodded to Madara Uchiha, "Then... let's end it here, Lord Madara Uchiha."

"...As you wish."

Madara Uchiha slowly closed his eyes, no longer paying attention to anything outside.

Qianqiu didn't say anything more and simply snapped his fingers.

Snapped

The world fell silent. The sapphire blue that had exploded on Chiaki's body subsided, and the pink chakra thread that had connected her to Uchiha Madara had snapped with Chiaki's snap.

Madara Uchiha felt a sudden lightness throughout his body as the life force provided by Chiaki was completely drained away, and power exceeding his physical limits surged into his body in an instant, only to be withdrawn just as quickly.

Almost instantly, Madara Uchiha's life force was overloaded and snapped, freezing his life at that moment.

bang

The massive amount of deep blue chakra on Madara Uchiha's body instantly went out of control, shooting straight into the sky and forming a deep blue pillar of light that stretched from heaven to earth.

As the pillar of light shot into the sky, the sky darkened, and a light drizzle began to fall.

If someone were to record major events, they would leave this sentence in their record:

Madara Uchiha, the strongest ninja in the world, met his end today at the hands of the goddess of life, Chiaki Senju.

He stood there quietly with his eyes closed, as if he had lost his life but had not, like a statue.

"Do not……"

"impossible……"

"is that a lie?"

The pitcher plant stared in shock at everything that was happening before its eyes. It couldn't believe that Madara Uchiha would actually be "defeated" by Chiaki.

Even though Madara Uchiha wasn't at his peak, not even one-tenth of his strength, he still lost to Chiaki.

His plan, everything he had, was placed on Madara Uchiha's shoulders; it was a scheme that had lasted for over a thousand years!

"Oh right... what about your side too?"

Chiaki silently mourned for a few seconds, bidding farewell to the strongest ninja in the world, before his gaze fell upon Zetsu, the pitcher plant.

"!!!"

The pitcher plant Zetsu felt an immense pressure on his body, and cold sweat broke out on his brow. He immediately recalled Madara Uchiha's earlier words telling him to run.

"Damn-"

The pitcher plant Zetsu immediately realized what was happening and tried to escape with the dazed Obito beside him, but he found it was too late.

A flash of blue light appeared, and Qianqiu appeared beside the pitcher plant Zetsu with a frown.

Unlike Might Guy and the others, whose bodies underwent grueling training, her body could not withstand the backlash of the Eight Gates.

At this moment, Qianqiu had only moved his body slightly, yet his body almost completely disintegrated.

Pink chakra frantically repaired Chiaki's body, turning the blue steam into a dazzling brilliance.

"Thousand Hands, Thousand Autumns!!!"

The pitcher plant cried out in despair, and Chiaki delivered a powerful punch to it.

bang

The explosive sapphire blue light shattered the pitcher plant's pitcher plant, completely destroying its disguise.

As Zetsu flew backward, Chiaki's hand was also completely shattered. She endured the pain and reached out her other hand to press down on Obito's body.

At this time, Obito was still in a daze. Because his body was injured, he was using half of the power of White Zetsu.

Because of the power of White Zetsu, Obito was often controlled and influenced.

However, it doesn't matter. In her current state, Chiaki can easily deal with the power of White Zetsu.

With a swift movement, she sliced ​​Obito in two.

At the same time, countless pink life forces surged into Obito's body, quickly restoring the other half of his body.

However, Chiaki suddenly realized that this action was a bit hasty. Although it could save him, the white Zetsu cells were like cancer, constantly sticking to Obito's body.

She frowned slightly and decisively formed a hand seal.

"Secret Technique! Beyond the Boundary!"

In terms of precision operation, the pink humanoid Boundary Beyond is more suitable than Chiaki.

"Do not--!!!"

"We can't let you get away with this!"

"Obito is our last hope!"

Just as Chiaki shifted his focus to the other side of the boundary and concentrated on healing Obito, Zetsu, one in black and one in white, suddenly appeared behind Chiaki.

"Humph."

Qianqiu noticed Jue; without the pitcher plant's cover, he looked much more ferocious.

However, at this stage, Chiaki's focus is on rescuing Obito, and he has no time to deal with Zetsu.

Moreover, given Jue's abilities in the original work, he wouldn't be able to interfere with Qianqiu in the present.

"roll."

Chiaki unleashed his chakra decisively, healing Obito with both hands while simultaneously blasting Zetsu away with his chakra.

but!

The original storyline, which had been helping Qianqiu all along, has now caused Qianqiu to suffer a major setback!

That's right.

Absolutely, there is no way for them to interfere with the future.
