In Konoha, they wiped out the Sarutobi clan at the start.

Chapter 361 Splitting the Meteorite in One Slash

The scene returns to the battlefield.

By this time, the battlefield was in complete disarray.

Just like in the original work, Madara first showed off his taijutsu, and then used a whole batch of fire-style techniques, Great Fire Annihilation.

Finally, he unleashed Susanoo.

In this operation, the coalition suffered heavy casualties, with the death toll rising at a visible rate.

The killing spree only briefly ended when Gaara used sand to pull Madara out of Susanoo.

However, it is worth mentioning that this was because they knew in advance that Madara possessed the Rinnegan.

Naruto did not use the Rasengan shuriken as in the original story.

Instead, he covered his shadow clones with explosive tags, then used smoke bombs for cover, transforming into the form of a Rasengan shuriken and covering Madara.

This is a tactic that was used to deal with Payne.

Unfortunately, Madara is not Pain.

His combat experience was like a nuclear bomb in action; with a Shinra Tensei, never before used in the original story, he deflected Naruto's shadow clones covered in explosive tags.

The explosive tag detonated with a loud bang, but fortunately Gaara's sand blocked it, otherwise the allied forces would have suffered heavy casualties again.

"Just as I and Chiya predicted, the ultimate Sharingan is the Rinnegan."

After knocking away Naruto's shadow clone, Madara returned to the stone pier where Chiya and the others were standing, and the Edo Tensei controlled by Kabuto immediately went to meet him.

"I only awakened the Rinnegan before I died." Madara glanced at Chiya and saw that the other party's expression remained completely unchanged after witnessing only a fraction of his strength.

Does this mean you think the strength you've shown isn't enough to move him?

Madara snorted, then looked at Kabuto's impure avatar, his expression gradually darkening. "Let's leave that guy aside for now. You're called Kabuto, right? A coward who couldn't even decipher the Uchiha clan's stone tablet actually cracked my secret."

"Unlike Lord Chiya, my hypothesis was merely based on data from Lord Orochimaru and my experiments over many years," Kabuto said. "And now you have confirmed my hypothesis."

"Sage of Six Paths, I have finally been able to glimpse his divine power by using the power I created you."

"Heh," Ban chuckled dismissively, forming hand seals. "Don't misunderstand, this power wasn't created by you."

As he spoke, a surge of chakra erupted from Madara's body. His red armor and robes fluttered without wind.

Susanoo then appeared, its four hands forming hand seals simultaneously with Madara's.

In an instant, the sky suddenly darkened.

"Wow, what a huge meteorite!" Chika exclaimed excitedly.

The once bustling battlefield suddenly fell silent, and everyone on the battlefield, including Qianye, looked up at the sky.

A meteorite with a diameter of over a kilometer, almost blotting out the sky, broke through the clouds and came into view.

"Heh. Bastard."

The ninja sword fell from someone's hand, and someone let out a desperate laugh.

"A meteorite...how could this be?"

"Is this also a form of ninjutsu?"

"Power is not on the same level as us."

"The power of God?"

At this moment, the allied forces were plunged into unprecedented despair.

"It's not over yet, stop talking such discouraging things. Are you really planning to throw away your life like this? Try to do something within your power."

Onoki was the first to react, leaping into the sky in an attempt to use the Super Light Heavy Rock Technique to reduce the weight of the meteorite and stop it from falling, just like he lifted Turtle Island.

"Everyone, run as far away as possible."

Immediately, Gaara manipulated a massive amount of sand, sending it soaring into the sky. While working with the Tsuchikage to defend against the meteor, he urgently urged the Allied Shinobi Forces to run.

"Kill us too?" Kabuto, the impure clone, looked up at the approaching meteorite and exclaimed in surprise.

With Susanoo deactivated, Madara looked at the rapidly falling meteor and said, "Ah, the Impure World Reincarnation is a ninjutsu used for mutual destruction. We are impure world reincarnations, so we can recover quickly."

At this point, Madara looked at Chiyo, whose expression remained calm, with interest, and said with a playful tone, "As for you, since you are confident that you have the strength to challenge me, this meteorite should be no problem for you."

"Of course, you can also choose to escape using Tobirama's space-time ninjutsu. Don't worry, I won't laugh at you."

Qianye smiled without saying a word. He and Qianxia simply watched quietly as the earth shadow rapidly flew towards the meteorite above.

"The flying ninja, is that kid from Iwagakure named Ryoutsubo?"

Madara also noticed the earth shadow.

But they didn't pay any attention.

Then, it was seen that Ōnoki, together with Gaara, actually managed to stop the meteorite.

Slightly surprised, a playful smile returned to his face as he muttered to himself, "So, how will you deal with the second one, Onoki?"

As he spoke, Madara summoned a second meteorite.

The two meteorites collided, and Onoki, who was dragging the meteorite below, was instantly and severely damaged by the terrifying weight of the meteorites.

Just as the meteorite below was about to shatter, a dark green slash suddenly shot out and tore through the sky.

The two meteorites collided, and the meteorites that were falling rapidly were suddenly stopped.

Then, with a cracking sound, it split in two, falling to the ground several hundred meters to the left and right of Qianye.

"You think you can defeat me with just sword strikes?" Madara was suddenly stunned, looking at Chiya with disbelief.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Madara, it seems I've damaged your meteorite." Chiya said to Madara with a smile, without ever glancing at the meteorite, and sheathed his sword.

boom.

Amidst Qianye's laughter, the meteorite, split into two or four pieces, had smooth, flat cuts, resembling a mirror.

Then it slowly fell to the ground.

The earthquake trembled.

It kicked up dust hundreds of meters high, enveloping the entire battlefield.

Thanks to Chiya's intervention, the Allied Forces, which were almost completely wiped out in the original story, survived, except for a few unlucky Allied Forces ninjas who ran to the sides and were either killed or injured. Many of the Allied Forces ninjas who were closer to Chiya's location actually survived.

"We're saved," one of the survivors said, collapsing onto the ground, panting heavily.

"What was that just now? It looked like something split the meteorite in two."

At this moment, all the allied ninjas were shocked.

What kind of ninjutsu could possibly split these two sky-covering meteorites apart?

"Gaara, that was just now..." Naruto's clone walked to Gaara, who was drenched in sweat, and recognized it as the slash that Chiya had once unleashed.

"Ah, there's no mistake, it was that guy who made the move." Gaara, supported by Temari, struggled to his feet. Just now, the meteorite had struck him.

It wasn't just the Tsuchikage who suffered heavy losses.

Even Gaara, who manipulates sand to ward off the meteorite, was affected.

Not only was his chakra depleted, but the powerful recoil also caused serious internal injuries to his internal organs.

Not to mention them, even on Chiyo's side, Madara and Kabuto were shocked.

"Is this the power of the Sage of Six Paths? It's truly astonishing. And Lord Chiya, he's as powerful as ever. He can even split a meteorite like this; his power seems even stronger than last time."

They praised it endlessly.
