"Whether he knows about the power of the Rinnegan or not, he cannot be left in this world any longer."
Madara Uchiha looked at Shen Qiu, who was tightly gripping the Moon Silver, and his killing intent inevitably leaked out. Although Shen Qiu's chakra was severely depleted, he was just a brat. What could he possibly do to the heavens?
"So--"
"All things are attracted by heaven!"
Madara Uchiha slowly raised his right hand and grabbed at the void in the direction of Shen Qiudi. The power of the Deva Path, including Shinra Tensei and Bansho Ten'in, represents absolute repulsion and absolute attraction respectively, and is extremely powerful.
The next moment, Shen Qiu felt his body uncontrollably wanting to fly towards Uchiha Madara. If it weren't for his extremely strong control while in a state of releasing magic power, he would probably have been sucked in by Uchiha Madara the moment he used Bansho Ten'in.
But even so, I couldn't hold on for long.
"What should I do?" Several ways to counter Wanxiang Tianyi flashed through Shen Qiu's mind. As an absolute gravitational force, Wanxiang Tianyin can not only absorb enemies, but also includes skills such as ninjutsu.
"Hatake Sword Technique - Final Form -"
"Lan!"
Thinking of this, Shen Qiu immediately poured a large amount of chakra into Moon Silver as if it were free. This is the benefit of abundant chakra; no matter what skill you use, you can use it in an instant.
Similarly, if Madara Uchiha had used Bansho Ten'in at his peak, Shen Qiu would probably have been sucked into his palm without even having a chance to react. However, Madara's Bansho Ten'in in his current state is not even comparable to the power of Nagato's Bansho Ten'in, let alone his peak state.

Even the most powerful people become incredibly fragile in the face of time.
"cut."
Seeing the terrifying blade energy rushing towards him, Madara had no choice but to stop releasing the Universal Pull. Having witnessed the Ice Dragon's Bite Blow, he dared not rashly use the power of the Preta Path to absorb the final form of the Hatake Sword Technique. In the end, he could only grit his teeth.
"Shinra Tenzheng!"
As soon as Ban finished speaking, a circular barrier appeared in front of him. The terrifying sword energy, which was tens of meters long, was mercilessly dispersed and disappeared after hitting the invisible barrier, emitting a series of mournful cries.
After Madara used Shinra Tensei, beneath the mask that Shen Qiu couldn't see, Madara's mouth was wide open, and he was breathing heavily into the air around him.
...... ..... ....
Chakra is almost completely depleted.
First, he used Great Fire Annihilation and Great Fire Extinction, then he used the power of the Preta Path but failed to absorb chakra. When he was bitten in the mouth by the Ice Dragon, he used Shinra Tensei once. He just used Bansho Ten'in once, and now he used Shinra Tensei again.
For Madara Uchiha at this age, this was actually the last gasp of his strength. The repeated and intense consumption of chakra had not been able to kill or even injure Shen Qiu.
The more this happened, the deeper Madara Uchiha's unease became.
Shen Qiu narrowed his eyes as he looked at Madara, who was motionless in the distance. Madara had used so much Rinnegan power in this period of time, his chakra should be almost gone.
After all, in a while, he will probably have to rely on the Gedo Mazo to transfer chakra to him in order to continue to survive.
Just as the two sides remained motionless and locked in a stalemate, within the range of Shen Qiu's Sharingan, an inconspicuous black dot appeared behind Madara's body at some point.
An ordinary person might not know what that black dot means, but Shen Qiu knew that it was the real mastermind behind the scenes—Black Zetsu!
"My lord, a large number of ninjas are heading this way. Please make a decision quickly!"
Black Zetsu whispered to Madara Uchiha.

Ten days later.
When Madara reappeared in the ninja world, he had already arrived in the Land of Rain, which was now filled with the smell of gunpowder. After purchasing some supplies, he found a cave in the deep mountains and forests to live in.
Gazing at the flickering campfire ahead, Madara Uchiha couldn't help but let his thoughts drift back to ten days ago.
After exchanging a couple of blows with Uchiha Aki, he discovered many secrets hidden within the boy, and his inner voice told him that this boy could never become his puppet.
If you can't have something, destroy it. This has always been Madara Uchiha's approach. That's why he wanted to destroy Konoha and why he had that earth-shattering battle with Hashirama Senju.
However, the more he fought Uchiha Aki, the more alarmed he became. It was as if his opponent knew all the abilities of the Rinnegan and could always come up with a countermeasure in advance, even though it was possible that this was just a lucky coincidence.
However, given Madara Uchiha's extremely suspicious nature, he never believed that anyone could have such good luck.
The Rinnegan is incredibly powerful, but it is not invincible. Once you understand the power of the Six Paths, you can actually counter or evade many of its forces, which is what Madara has always been puzzled by.
He is the only one in the world with the Rinnegan, and it could even be said that he is the only one to have the Rinnegan since the death of the Sage of Six Paths a thousand years ago. So how did the other party know about the abilities of the Rinnegan?
The more he thought about it, the more alarmed and uneasy he became. He wanted to finish off the boy as quickly as possible, but all his methods were countered one by one. He was forced to retreat because he had exhausted his chakra and the boy's reinforcements arrived.
"If I were in the era forty years ago, if I could use Earth Explosion Star and Heavenly Obstruction Star..."
Ban murmured somewhat resentfully, "Am I no longer able to handle even a junior?" And this junior was like a thorn, deeply embedded in his heart, making him restless and unable to eat or sleep.
"Master Spot."
Just as Madara was still regretting that he had failed to kill Uchiha Madara, Zetsu, a giant pitcher plant half black and half white, appeared on the cave wall above his head.
"I've found the last survivor of the Uzumaki clan in a village not far away. Should we proceed with the plan...?"
Before he could finish speaking, Madara Uchiha waved his hand impatiently and asked.
"Where is that Uchiha Aki guy right now?"
Seemingly not expecting Madara Uchiha to ask such a question, Zetsu was momentarily stunned, but despite his confusion, he still answered.
"He's probably at the battlefield between the Fire and Lightning Kingdoms right now. He seems to be a frontline commander of a Konoha unit. Lord Madara, why are you asking about him now? Shouldn't we be focusing on completing our plan first?"
Zetsu was somewhat bewildered. What was Madara doing? He had been preoccupied with that boy named Uchiha Aki for the past few days. Although he was very good at reading people, he didn't have mind-reading abilities, so he had no idea what Madara was thinking.
"The border between the Thunder and Fire Kingdoms... No problem. Continue to observe him carefully, and report to me immediately if there is any disturbance." After thinking for a moment, he gave this order.
Upon hearing his words, Zetsu's heart filled with anxiety. If Madara didn't follow his plan, then the resurrection of Kaguya...
"But Lord Madara, what about the remaining survivors of the Uzumaki clan and the existing plans? Shouldn't we prioritize the matters within the existing plans first..."
However, before Jue could finish speaking, the surrounding air seemed to drop by more than ten degrees in an instant, becoming cold and gloomy.
"Are you teaching me how to do things? Absolutely not."
Madara Uchiha looked at the strangely shaped creature in front of him with great displeasure. As the embodiment of his will, Zetsu should have been able to execute his orders one hundred percent. In other words, Zetsu could not possibly have his own thoughts.
Because Zetsu's ideas should be the same as Ban's ideas.
"No, Lord Madara, I'm just afraid that something might go wrong with the plan you've painstakingly devised. In that case, I will immediately go to the border between the Fire and Lightning Kingdoms to monitor Uchiha Aki's movements."
After seeing Madara's reaction, he wanted nothing more than to slap himself repeatedly across the face. Madara was notoriously suspicious, and it was only through absolute loyalty and obedience that he had gained Madara's complete trust over the years.
Now things are really messed up. Knowing Madara's personality, he would never overlook even the slightest suspicious detail, and the trust he'd built up over the years could very well be shattered.
"You don't need to worry about it. Just focus on your own responsibilities."
As he spoke, Ban dragged his somewhat weary body toward the cave entrance, glancing at the misty sky in the distance, which was shrouded in fog due to the constant rain.
"Uchiha Qiu...Uchiha Qiu..."
Meanwhile, Shen Qiu, thousands of miles away, doesn't have time to deal with the hidden demon king boss right now; he has much more troublesome things to do.
At this moment, he is at the border between the Fire and Lightning Kingdoms, directing the ninjas present to engage in wave after wave of battles with the Cloud Village!
After the Battle of Asami Gorge, the soldiers under his command had completely shed their initial immaturity and become a formidable force.
Many elite Jonin even broke through the shackles and entered the ranks of Special Jonin or even Jonin. The saying that war is the best catalyst is indeed true.
"They haven't even managed to take down a single hill after all this fighting? What's the name of Konoha's commander now?"
The Third Raikage's expression showed a hint of anger. This was the first time he had encountered such strong resistance since the war against Konoha began. His side had been attacking for an entire morning but hadn't even managed to take down one of the enemy's hilltops. The usually weak Konoha ninjas were surprisingly resilient at this moment.
"It's the Silver Flash, Uchiha Aki. His troops are currently responsible for resisting on the front lines." Tsuchida walked into the tent from outside, his expression equally grim.
They all knew that Uchiha Aki was extremely strong in individual combat, but they did not expect that even without taking action, he also had outstanding command ability. Their various tactics were all put into action but ultimately disappeared like a mud ox sinking into the sea.
"Leave it to me, Raikage-sama. I will break through their defenses."
Upon seeing this, a beautiful woman who bore an eight or even nine-tenths resemblance to Yugito in later generations stood up. She was none other than the current Two-Tails Jinchuriki, Yugito's grandmother, Yugiwa!

Yuzuki Wei gazed intently at the Third Raikage, A, who was directly above her. Unlike A's brother, Brubi, she was a near-perfect Jinchuriki, able to freely manipulate the power of the Two-Tails, and even when fully transformed into a Tailed Beast, she would not lose her consciousness.
Becoming a perfect Jinchūriki is not an easy thing, because first of all, the Jinchūriki himself must have extremely strong willpower and good character. Only in this way can he have the opportunity to gain the recognition of the Tailed Beast.
However, this is just a threshold. The personality traits of the tailed beasts themselves also play a significant role. For example, the One-Tailed Shukaku, the Three-Tailed Isobu, the Four-Tailed Son Goku, the Six-Tailed Saiken, and the Nine-Tailed Kurama are all tailed beasts with extremely volatile tempers.
If you can't even communicate with the Tailed Beasts, how can you freely use their power?
After that, the Tailed Beasts will also conduct a long period of evaluation on the Jinchuriki. Only when the Tailed Beasts are very satisfied with the Jinchuriki will they feel at ease entrusting their power to the Jinchuriki.
The Hidden Cloud Village is incredibly fortunate. Both of their tailed beasts, Matatabi (Two-Tails) and Gyūki (Eight-Tails), are very gentle in nature. Matatabi is even quite polite, greeting people proactively with a very amiable tone.
In Shippuden, when Naruto was still far from assimilating with Kurama, Yugito and Killer Bee from Kumogakure were already able to perfectly manipulate the power of the Tailed Beasts, which shows the importance of the Tailed Beasts' personalities.
However, the current Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Burubi, and his successor, Killer Bee, have very different personalities. As a result, even now, Burubi has difficulty using the power of the Tailed Beasts, let alone fighting on the battlefield as an ordinary ninja.
Brubi originally possessed a fairly good family background, bloodline, and talent within the Hidden Cloud Village. Both the previous Eight-Tails Jinchuriki and the Second Raikage had high hopes for him.
However, Brubi's heart is actually very fragile. He cannot accept the fear and discrimination he receives from those around him after becoming a Jinchūriki. Therefore, he isolates himself at home day after day, and the trials he faces from the Eight-Tails Gyūki are a further blow to him.
Because of his weakening mental strength, the Third Raikage had no choice but to let him recuperate in the village. His brother's current state caused the Third Raikage much pain.
"Can you do it? I've heard that Uchiha Aki, the frontline commander of Konoha this time, is incredibly strong. There were even rumors that he was Tobirama Senju's illegitimate son, and that he inherited extremely powerful water-style techniques and speed from him."
Although the Third Raikage was burly and rough, he was also meticulous. Yuzuki Wei was a valuable asset and a powerful area-of-effect attacker on his side. Whether she was captured or killed, it would be a great loss to the Hidden Cloud Village.
