Naruto staggered to his feet from the pile of rubble, his Nine-Tails Chakra Cloak tattered.
As he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, he touched the bulging veins at the corner of his eye. The roar of Kurama inside him made his eardrums ache: "Kid, if you suppress my power any longer, we'll all be wiped out!" But last time in the Cloud Thunder Gorge... Naruto suddenly saw the Fourth Raikage's right arm, which had been blown off by the Tailed Beast Ball. The Nine-Tails' claws tore open the cage of the mental space, and dark red chakra overflowed from between his fingers like magma.
"The worst of the worst!" Sasuke's Kusanagi sword grazed past Naruto's ear, severing three black rods that were shooting towards him.
The recoil from the sword made Sasuke's arm go numb. He grabbed Naruto by the collar and dragged him behind cover: Is this the time for you to hesitate? The burning pain from the Tailed Beast Cloak on his palm made him frown, and the tomoe in his Sharingan spun wildly: Look at the Raikage!
Fifty meters away in the center of the battlefield, the Fourth Raikage was enveloped in arcs of electricity from his Lightning Release armor.
With each step he took, the ground collapsed, revealing a spiderweb-like network of cracks, but the thunderous, scorching blade, which should have been devastating, froze a foot in front of Ban.
The pitch-black gravitational field, like a viscous swamp, pressed Lei Ying's bulging muscles inch by inch, causing his bones to deform with a crisp sound.
"Save...save Lord Raikage!" Samui's cries were drowned out by the turbulent energy.
The ninja tool she threw turned into molten iron the moment it left her hand, and the splashed liquid metal condensed into sharp pyramids in mid-air.
Killer Bee's eight octopus tails wrapped around his two Cloud Village companions, rolling them out of the danger zone. A shard of his sunglasses cut a bloody gash on his face: "Idiot brother!"
Use the Body Flicker Technique quickly!
The Raikage's roar suddenly turned into a muffled groan—three Truth-Seeking Balls pierced through his shoulder blades, pinning him to the crystal cluster suspended in mid-air.
Blood meandered along the surface of the crystal, forming eerie runes. Madara's Rinnegan reflected this horrific scene, and his right hand slowly formed the Seal of the Snake: Let the fall of the Land of Lightning be the prelude to a new era.
Sage Art: Super Giant Rasengan! Naruto broke through Sasuke's obstruction and leaped into the sky, the azure ball of light rapidly expanding in his palm.
A storm formed by the Nine-Tails' chakra and natural energy tore through the darkness, but was blocked by Black Zetsu, who suddenly appeared just before it was about to hit.
The viscous black substance enveloped the Rasengan, breaking it down into countless points of light that disappeared into the ground.
Watch out behind you! Hinata's Gentle Fist barely shattered the crystalline blade that attacked Naruto from behind, and the over-activated Byakugan caused blood to gush from her nose.
The warmth of Naruto's clothes still lingered on her fingertips, and this realization made her tremble as she took another half step forward.
Six ripples suddenly appeared in the darkness, and Madara's Limbo: Border Jail clone silently swung its scythe—
Bagua Empty Palm!
Susanoo!
The two attacks simultaneously deflected the scythe's trajectory, and Hinata fell to the ground, watching as the purple Susanoo ribs shielded Naruto behind her.
Sasuke's panting was mixed with the trembling of depleted chakra: "Don't drag me down, you loser." Blood tears from his Mangekyou Sharingan slid down his pale cheeks, and his pupils contracted sharply when his gaze swept over the Raikage pinned to the ground in the distance.
Orochimaru's swarm of snakes suddenly emerged from the ground, their venomous fangs tearing at the crystal clusters that trapped the Raikage.
His pale fingers brushed the blood from his lips, his vertical pupils fixed on the disintegrating black spike: a phase difference caused by the reverse flow of natural energy... So that's it. This discovery sent a trembling sound of excitement through his throat, but the hint he was about to utter was interrupted by a sudden explosion of gravitational field.
The game should end. Ban hovered between the collapsing heavens and earth, his hands forming a hand seal he had never seen before.
All the chakra crystals emitted a buzzing sound at the same time, and the Iwagakure ninjas at the edge of the battlefield suddenly screamed in agony—the Earth Release chakra within their bodies was being forcibly extracted and condensed into a meteorite that blotted out the sky in front of Madara.
Dust Release: Particle Style... Before Onoki could finish his technique, his old injury to his waist caused him to fall heavily.
As Heitu leaped to catch his grandfather, he saw the yin-yang patterns flowing across the meteorite's surface reflected in the old man's cloudy pupils: This is not something we can fight.
Shikamaru's shadow snaked among the pebbles, cold sweat dripping from his forehead onto his trembling fingertips.
He had just used his Shadow Imitation Technique to save Ino, who had been thrown into the air by the aftershocks of the meteorite, and his brain was now operating at a rate that was draining his life force.
As his gaze swept over the crystals whose arrangement changed with the energy fluctuations, he suddenly noticed a familiar geometric model—the barrier array set up by Sunagakure during the Chunin Exams was seven parts similar to the crystal array at this moment.
"Temari!" His hoarse shout made the Sand Village princess, who was manipulating the Three Star Fan, pause slightly. Three years ago, during the Battle of Kikyo Mountain... Before he could finish speaking, Madara's meteor shower had already torn through the clouds.
But Shikamaru had no time to explain; his shadow shot like an arrow toward a glowing crystal node.
Shikamaru's Adam's apple bobbed up and down, and the special talisman he was holding with his fingertips was soaked with cold sweat.
That was a token of alliance given by Sunagakure after the Chunin Exams, and the scrap of material with the Four Symbols Seal drawn on it was now burning hot in my palm.
As Madara's Rinnegan swept across the battlefield, he deliberately staggered and crushed the crystals at his feet, letting the chaotic fluctuations of chakra conceal the shimmering seal patterns in his arms.
The struggle of ants. Madara's cold laughter came from high above, and the Truth-Seeking Ball grazed Shikamaru's ear, his severed sideburns being swept into the sky by the gravitational field.
This was precisely the opening Shikamaru had been waiting for—as his Rinnegan focused on the Nine-Tails' chakra erupting in the distance, he slammed the talisman into the crack beneath his feet.
The Sand Village's barrier technique resonated violently with the Rock Village's crystal array, and the entire battlefield was suddenly cut into a honeycomb-like geometric space by an amber-colored light curtain.
"Now!" Shikamaru roared as he ripped off the chakra conduction necklace around his neck, sending shards of jade flying and creating a reverse sealing pattern in the air.
For the first time, Madara's Rinnegan pupils contracted. The chakra crystals that should have been under absolute control suddenly collided with each other like an out-of-control star cluster, and the refracted rainbow halo exploded with fine cracks in the Rinnegan.
Naruto felt Kurama's chakra suddenly become scalding hot, and the orange-red tailed beast cloak melted into a liquid that enveloped his entire body.
He gazed at the six tomoe patterns appearing in his palm, and heard the Fourth Hokage's gentle words: "This time, we'll fight side by side, Naruto." Nine golden tails pierced the sky, and Sage Mode markings spread along his eyelids, forming dazzling golden edges.
As he leaped into the air, the air was compressed into visible ring-shaped clouds, and the crystalline matrix on the ground shattered layer by layer in the pure shockwave.
Interesting. Ban wiped away the blood that had seeped from the corner of his eye, and the Truth-Seeking Ball floating behind him suddenly reformed into a jet-black halberd.
The moment the two forces collided, the clouds within a radius of a hundred miles were shaken into radial ripples, and the defensive barrier of Sunagakure Village shattered in response.
Just as Sasuke's Susanoo bow nocked an arrow, he saw Madara's Rinnegan suddenly reverse into a kaleidoscope pattern—that was clearly Izuna Uchiha's eye technique!
Killer Bee's Eight-Tails tentacles wrapped around Hinata and Sasuke as they retreated rapidly. Fragments of his sunglasses reflected a terrifying scene: Naruto's fist, clad in a tailed beast's cloak, pierced Madara's chest, but only struck the fading afterimage.
A spatial rift silently opened behind Naruto, and black thorns of Yin-Yang Release material gathered at Madara's fingertips, their trajectory perfectly overlapping the fatal wound inflicted on Minato and his wife three years ago.
Watch out! Tsunade's Hundred Healings Technique exploded on the ground, creating a spiderweb of medical chakra, but it couldn't catch up with the black thorn that was about to pierce Naruto's back.
Orochimaru's Kusanagi sword suddenly thrust out from an odd angle, and the swarm of snakes wrapped around the sword briefly slowed the trajectory of the black spike in a spacetime rift.
In that instant, everyone saw the phantom of the Sage of Six Paths suddenly reflected in Naruto's golden pupils, and blood-like Tailed Beast chakra seeping from the horny headband on his forehead...
Chapter 325 The Plan Needs to Be Revised
Blood beads condensed into ice crystals along Madara Uchiha's fingertips, and the Yin-Yang Release: Black Thorn was only three inches away from Naruto's back.
Hinata's Byakugan veins surged, and she could even see the spiral pattern of chakra vortexes forming on the tip of the spike—exactly the same as the murder weapon that pierced Kushina's heart three years ago in the Konoha Village hospital.
Uzumaki Naruto!
The girl's scream shattered the icy shards that had formed on her eyelashes.
Outside the shattered barrier of Sunagakure, Gaara's sand waterfall attempted to break through the space-time rift, but it turned to dust the moment it touched the black spikes.
Temari's three-star fan whipped up a hurricane, but could only futilely stir up the scattered golden chakra fragments.
Baka! Killer Bee's octopus tentacles suddenly erupted with chakra of all seven natures, and a Tailed Beast Ball, interwoven with red and blue, condensed into a deformed ball of light in his mouth.
But when he saw Sasuke, who was wrapped in tentacles, forming hand seals, the Chidori spears wrapped in Amaterasu black flames suddenly changed direction—the six-pointed star pattern of the Sharingan reflected the blood-soaked headband on Naruto's forehead.
Orochimaru's Kusanagi sword emitted a hissing sound like a swarm of snakes, its blade drawing eerie zigzags in the gaps of time and space.
In a fleeting moment, Kabuto Yakushi's Impure World Reincarnation Talisman suddenly ignited on his sleeve, and the snake scales from Ryuchi Cave, under the impact of Yin-Yang Release, revealed patterns of toad oil from Mount Myōboku.
The power of the Six Paths resonated! Tsunade's Yin Seal burst forth with a spiderweb-like golden light, and fluorescent mycelium, unique to the Shikkotsu Forest, suddenly sprouted from the shattered ground.
She saw the reflection of Ton-Ton's Rinnegan in Shizune's arms, with the chakra chains of the nine tailed beasts appearing behind Naruto, while the Gedo Mazo, which should have been sealed, was now trembling in the ruins of Amegakure.
Madara's Rinnegan suddenly contracted into a kaleidoscope pattern, and he recognized the ancient characters entwined in the light—prophetic poems recorded on the toad oil scroll of Mount Myōboku, which were even older than the Uchiha stone tablet.
Black Thorn suddenly split into twelve phantoms, each corresponding to the location of the castle tower of the capital of the five great ninja nations.
"You actually awakened the memories of the Divine Tree..." Madara's voice cracked for the first time, and the Truth-Seeking Ball floating behind him began to rotate counterclockwise.
Suddenly, the clouds floating above Sunagakure revealed a star map, a secret technique of the Land of Snow. The meteorite fragments shattered by the Tailed Beast Balls reassembled in mid-air into the outline of the Ten-Tails.
Naruto, enveloped in light, suddenly heard Kurama's low growl.
Within the sealed cage of his spiritual world, saplings of divine trees are sprouting from the originally rusty railings, while in the cell imprisoning the other tailed beasts, the magma chains of the Four-Tails Son Goku display the same magma patterns as the Sage of Six Paths' staff.
This is not my power. Naruto tried to grasp a wisp of golden light, but the particles of light transformed into the Water Mirror Technique, unique to Kirigakure, the moment they touched him.
He saw Mei Terumi burning scrolls in the Mizukage's office, while Hozuki Mangetsu's water transformation technique condensed runes on the mirror that matched the light at that moment.
On the edge of the battlefield, the leaves of the pitcher plant suddenly ooze sap.
The White Zetsu he possessed let out a shrill scream, and the cells originating from the Gedo Mazo withered in the light.
Black Zetsu's pupils, however, reflected a completely different scene—deep within the glaciers of the Land of Iron, on the surface of an ice coffin sealing Kaguya Otsutsuki, a crack appeared that was exactly the same as Naruto's headband.
"The scent of my mother..." Black Zetsu's mutterings were interrupted by the Raikage's roar.
When the Fourth Hokage A's Lightning Release armor reached its peak, the spatial rift he cleaved revealed the Hidden Cloud Village's secret Six Paths Ninja Tool—the Amber Purification Bottle—its mouth pointing directly at the center of the light.
Wait! Onoki's Dust Release suddenly changed trajectory, and cold sweat seeped from the wrinkles of the two Libra Kage: those light particles were reorganizing the sealing formula! He recognized a forbidden technique array diagram originating from the era of the Great Immortal—a secret technique that should have been lost forever with the Second Mizukage's Steam Explosion.
Kakashi's mask was torn apart by the strong wind, revealing the scars left by Obito.
His right Sharingan suddenly reflected Rin's phantom image, and the chakra threads of his medical ninjutsu resonated with the energy within the light. This wasn't just simple chakra... He saw the trajectory of Might Guy's Eight Gates Formation burning in the void, the green steam outlining the same feather robe patterns as the Sage of Six Paths.
Madara Uchiha suddenly withdrew the black thorns, and the twelve phantoms twisted into the roots of the Divine Tree in the light.
For the first time, his Rinne Sharingan, which had awakened on his forehead, revealed surprise and doubt—deep within the bands of light that were entangling Naruto, he saw the chakra remnants belonging to Uchiha Izuna, which should have been devoured by the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
The light suddenly contracted into nine tomoe, which floated around Naruto, forming an ancient formation.
Outside the shattered barrier of Sunagakure, Shukaku's Sand Eyes suddenly shed tears of blood, and its roar caused the chakra of the One-Tailed to the Seven-Tailed to go berserk simultaneously.
Far away in Kirigakure, the Three-Tailed Isobu suddenly shattered the seal, carving the same cuneiform script as the one in the light onto the coral reef.
It seems the plan needs to be revised. Madara's figure gradually blurred in the space-time vortex, his last gaze fixed on Naruto's blood-soaked headband.
The blood droplets formed from the chakra of the tailed beasts did not drip down; instead, they drew the emblem of the Otsutsuki clan in the air. Meanwhile, a giant Tenseigan sleeping on the far side of the moon was resonating with the bloodstains.
When the light completely dissipated, everyone discovered a crystalline ring with a diameter of 100 meters in the center of the battlefield.
Within those crystals that refracted seven-colored light, the fragments of Yin-Yang Release scattered by Madara during his retreat were sealed, while deep within the cracks on Naruto's headband, nine tomoe could be faintly seen rotating counterclockwise.
The moment the nine tomoe completely merged into Naruto's skin, the crystalline rings on the battlefield suddenly refracted a galaxy-like vortex.
Before Madara Uchiha's space-time rift had closed, cuneiform characters identical to those on Kaguya's ice coffin suddenly appeared beneath Naruto's feet.
Kakashi attempted to sever the light band with his Lightning Blade, only to discover that the chakra of Chidori's sharp cry was being silently devoured by the crystal.
This is... spacetime resonance? Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils suddenly contracted, and the Kusanagi sword that shot out from his sleeve was suddenly drawn by some force, drawing a perfect circular trajectory around Naruto.
The chakra of the tailed beasts scattered throughout the battlefield suddenly condensed behind Naruto like fireflies returning to their nest, forming nine luminous tails, each with a tomoe of the Sage of Six Paths floating at its end.
Madara Uchiha's Rinne Sharingan suddenly shed tears of blood as he recognized the frequency of this spatial fluctuation—it was exactly the same as the Otsutsuki altar he had seen on the far side of the moon years ago.
Just as he was about to activate the Wheel of Death, he discovered that his shadow was imprisoned within the refracting surface of the crystal ring.
In a fleeting moment, he glimpsed the same moon-white patterns that appeared deep within Naruto's azure pupils as those of Kaguya.
Naruto Uzumaki felt as if he had fallen into an ocean of chakra.
Countless fragments of memory, like shooting stars falling in reverse, pierced through his surging meridians.
He saw the Sage of Six Paths brothers kneeling under the divine tree, saw the original text on the Uchiha stone tablet before it was altered, and finally, the image of Kaguya's blood tear sliding down her cheek as she was sealed away was captured—a tear that reflected the image of Madara Uchiha activating the Rinnegan.
The reincarnation of Indra and Asura. A clear, cold female voice came from the depths of the starry sea, and Princess Kaguya's white hair spread out in the void like a silver river.
The Rinne Sharingan on her forehead shimmered with a halo brighter than the moon, and the phantom of the Ten-Tails' larva hovered at her fingertips. The truth you pursue is nothing more than a reflection of the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Naruto wanted to argue, but he discovered that his chakra was condensing into branches of the God Tree.
Those sealing techniques that Kurama once hated are now growing frog-like markings unique to Mount Myōboku within his body.
As Kaguya's sleeve swept across time and space, it revealed details that Madara had not noticed when he was controlling the Gedo Mazo—each chakra tube connecting to the Mazo was wrapped with spores split off from Black Zetsu.
He thinks he's creating a new world? Kaguya's cold laugh sent ice crystals floating in the air. "He's just repeating the mistakes I made back then." She suddenly reached out and touched Naruto's forehead, and the shattered headband instantly reformed into the horn ornaments of the Otsutsuki clan.
Countless ancient ninjutsu knowledge flooded into Naruto's mind, and he saw that the Six Paths power Madara obtained was actually mixed with the resentment of the Ten-Tails when it was separated from him.
Only three seconds have passed in the real world.
When Naruto reopened his eyes, the crystal rings on the battlefield had turned into scattered dust.
Madara Uchiha's Truth-Seeking Balls suddenly emitted a piercing, mournful cry, and he was startled to realize that the Rinne Sharingan on his forehead was fading.
Before those suspended black spikes could reassemble, they were dissolved into liquid Yin-Yang Release by the chakra light flowing around Naruto.
"Impossible!" Ban's roar shattered the rocks within a hundred miles, and the phantom of the divine tree behind him suddenly sprouted thousands of roots.
But this time, Naruto simply raised his hand, and the roots that were strong enough to pierce through the tailed beasts transformed into fluttering cherry blossoms the moment they touched the band of light—it was the healing chakra form of Sakura Haruno's Hundred Healings Technique.
Kakashi's Sharingan suddenly revealed an astonishing scene: each of Naruto's footprints left burning cuneiform characters in the void, which were quietly reconstructing the spacetime structure distorted by Madara.
When Madara's Limbo shadow finally broke free from its restraints and launched a surprise attack, Naruto's tail suddenly split into eighteen chains, pinning the four shadows to the cracked earth at the same time.
"This is... Mom's chakra mode?" Killer Bee's Eight-Tails suddenly exclaimed.
It saw patterns completely different from those of the Sage of Six Paths appearing on the chakra cloak flowing around Naruto—those patterns were absorbing the residual energy of all the ninjutsu on the battlefield, even including the dust release particles that Onoki had not yet dissipated.
