Chapter 339: A Need for Infinite Tsukoyomi to Gather Chakra and Defeat Akihara KaguraDo we still need to guess about such things?
Is there any technique in the ninja world that Akihara Kagura cannot master?
Everyone present became heavy-hearted. They all knew how extraordinarily gifted Akihara Kagura was; even the troublesome technique of the Flying Thunder God could be mastered in an instant!
The difficulty of training a forbidden technique like the Eight Gates Formation, no matter how high, wouldn't pose much trouble for Akihara Kagura!
Hatake Kakashi took a deep breath, a trace of fear in his eyes. He recalled how long ago Akihara Kagura had started training in taijutsu...
One might say...
Since Kakashi had known Akihara Kagura...
Akihara Kagura had been tirelessly training his taijutsu...
Moreover, Akihara Kagura had long transplanted Hashirama cells, possessing a physical quality far surpassing Might Guy's. Coupled with nearly ten years of honing...
Even if Akihara Kagura's training regime wasn't as extreme as Might Guy's, his talent and physical strength more than compensated for everything..."The Eight Gates Formation..."
Hatake Kakashi would never doubt Akihara Kagura's talent. Even someone as not-so-bright as himself could learn the basics of the Eight Gates Formation...
Not to mention...
Someone as diligent and talented as Akihara Kagura!
If Might Guy is a ninja who diligently and thoroughly mastered the Eight Gates Formation, then Akihara Kagura might be a genius who mastered it due to his physical talent, with the Sage's body's strong regenerative abilities sparing him from worrying about training injuries!
"I really like training in taijutsu."
Akihara Kagura slowly extended his palm, his fingers gradually clenching into a fist: "I've liked it from the very beginning. Taijutsu combat is the foundation that can decide everything..."
No matter where one is...
A man strong in close combat will never be a weakling!
"The Eight Gates Formation is also a powerful technique for me..."
Akihara Kagura smiled as he looked at the increasingly serious and somber Uchiha Madara, and continued cheerfully, "Incidentally, Uchiha Obito use Izanagi to avoid the death from the Rinne Rebirth, which confirmed one thing for me..."
"!!!"
Uchiha Madara clenched the staff in his hand!
This guy...
Had intended to use Uchiha Obito for experimentation!
If Uchiha Obito could use Izanagi to avoid the inevitable death from the Rinne Rebirth, then the negative state of fully opening the Eight Gates Formation could also be negated by his Limitless Yomi Eye Technique!
This also means...
Akihara Kagura has covered his weaknesses!
Akihara Kagura's ordinary techniques couldn't threaten someone of his Sage level, but the immense attacking power of the Eight Gates Formation could!
The most terrifying part is...
Akihara Kagura suffers no aftereffects from the Eight Gates Formation!
Any ninja who trains in the Eight Gates will inevitably suffer bodily damage. Every point opened from the Injury Gate onwards will cause harm, but some people can withstand these damages through intense training...
Akihara Kagura...
Can ignore all damage.
Even if Akihara Kagura didn't care about death and forcibly opened the Eighth Gate, he could use his Mangekyou Sharingan techniques to negate all negative states, turning the life-burning aftereffects of the Eight Gates into a dream!
This...
Is the most troublesome aspect!
This...
Is also Akihara Kagura's greatest strength!
Uchiha Madara's heart pounded with excitement as he thought about the formidable opponent he was about to face. The staff in his hand suddenly swung!
"To think you'd make me go all out..."
Uchiha Madara's pupils suddenly widened, and a wild laugh flashed across his face: "Hahahaha... I really underestimated you, brat!"
"No, I overestimated you."
Akihara Kagura glanced at the fallen Might Guy, smiling lightly: "Because I also wanted to see if the Eight Gates could truly threaten a Sage Six Paths Madara, whether he would step forward to stop me from using space-time techniques..."
"Now..."
"I have ample experience!"
The next moment!
A powerful burst of chakra erupted from Akihara Kagura, who showed no concern for the slight burden of opening the Eight Gates!
"First Gate, Gate of Opening, open!"
"Second Gate, Gate of Healing, open!"
"Third Gate, Gate of Life, open!"
"Fourth Gate, Gate of Pain, open!"
"Fifth Gate, Gate of Limit, open!"
"Sixth Gate, Gate of View, open!"
Just the state of opening the Sixth Gate made the ninjas present somewhat fearful, unable to look directly at the green vapor emanating from Akihara Kagura!
"Seventh Gate, Gate of Wonder, open!"
Akihara Kagura's eyes flashed, and in an instant, he opened the Seventh Gate. Blue steam rose from his body, and his aura surged even higher!
"So it's not yet the red steam..."
Uchiha Madara took a deep breath, feeling underestimated, his gaze turning icy: "Brat, don't underestimate a Sage ninja!"
"Then... I'll show you the utmost respect!"
Red vapor suddenly surged from Akihara Kagura, his blood energy burning instantly: "Eighth Gate, Gate of Death, open!"
With the opening of the Eighth Gate, Akihara Kagura's chakra instantly soared to its maximum. This immense chakra far exceeded that of Might Guy!
This was power dozens of times greater than his own...
Even surpassing the Uchiha Madara before him!
The Limitless Yomi Eye Technique gradually took effect, slowly erasing the damage to Akihara Kagura's body. This ocular technique, akin to Izanagi, removed all detrimental conditions while preserving beneficial combat states for the user.
At this moment, Akihara Kagura had undeniably surpassed all previous ninjas!
Even Black Zetsu, hiding underground, couldn't help but feel terrified, his body trembling slightly: "Have these ninjas evolved to the point where their paltry tricks could surpass Mother?"
No wonder...
Akihara Kagura aimed to resurrect Kaguya...
Perhaps with such power, Akihara Kagura might even pose a threat to Kaguya!
"This level of chakra..."
Uchiha Madara gripped his staff tightly, feeling an overwhelming pressure: "To surpass me even now..."
Such a thing...
Is quite normal!
Akihara Kagura's chakra far exceeded that of everyone in the ninja world, reaching the pinnacle just below the Sage of Six Paths, surpassing even Hashirama!
Now...
Akihara Kagura's chakra abundance...
Even surpassed that of Uchiha Madara as the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki!
"This feeling isn't bad..."
Akihara Kagura looked at the red steam around him, intrigued by the power within his body!
Simultaneously activating the Limitless Yomi and the Eight Gates, Akihara Kagura paid no heed to the pain from opening the Eight Gates!
"I'll use this..."
"As the curtain call for an era!"
In the next moment!
Akihara Kagura's figure transformed into a golden-red light, moving with a speed reminiscent of the Yellow Flash, with red steam faintly visible within the golden glow!
"Even faster!"
Uchiha Madara couldn't raise his staff in time!
Akihara Kagura appeared before Uchiha Madara, raising his fist and striking Madara's abdomen heavily!
"Ugh..."
Madara felt his organs shatter under the punch, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his pupils widening instantly!
Four Limbo clones appeared around him!
The Limbo clones simultaneously reached for Akihara Kagura, but their hands fell short, unable to capture his figure!
"Too late!"
Madara's heart tightened!
In the next moment, Akihara Kagura's figure traced an arc!
Along this arc, a Limbo clone appeared under his palm, collapsing instantly!
Akihara Kagura's attack speed and strength were so overwhelming that even the powerful Limbo clones couldn't resist for a moment!
"Can't withstand even one hit..."
Madara spewed a flame towards Akihara Kagura!
But the flame couldn't even scorch Akihara Kagura's body, being extinguished by his punch's wind in an instant!
In the next moment!
The red steam around Akihara Kagura coalesced into a dragon!
This massive dragon, many times larger than Might Guy's, flew towards Madara with Akihara Kagura!
The sea waves were cleaved by the steam from the dragon, surging towards Madara!
Crack... crack crack...
The surrounding space slowly fractured...
Clearly...
This strike's power far exceeded Might Guy's!
Might Guy's strike heavily injured Madara, so what magnitude of impact would Akihara Kagura's strike have?
Compared to Might Guy's full-force spatial distortion, Akihara Kagura's Eight Gates attack directly caused spatial rupture, preventing anyone from stopping this move or using any space-time techniques against him!
The red dragon rushed towards Madara, crashing into him, nearly shattering his body, breaking his arms and legs with no resistance!
"This level of power..."
Madara's hands rapidly healed!
But before he fully recovered, the still-flying red dragon turned around, charging at him again!
This time...
The dragon seemed to bite Madara's body!
Akihara Kagura, enveloped by the red steam dragon, kicked Madara, making him feel as if his body didn't belong to him...
Even as a Six Paths-level ninja...
This attack's strength...
Made his body unable to endure!
Madara felt the Ten-Tails within him almost being forced out, tails growing from his back!
"Madara..."
"Is no match..."
Hashirama watched his old friend with concern: "Even as the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, Madara can't stop Akihara Kagura's attacks..."
"If this continues..."
Tobirama, watching the battle between the two malevolent Uchiha, had to side with Madara for the sake of protecting the ninja world: "The Ten-Tails in Madara might be forced out by Akihara Kagura..."
In the next moment!
Madara raised his fingers sharply, trying to suppress the Ten-Tails within him!
The figure of Akihara Kagura suddenly appeared!
Along with Akihara Kagura's figure, a red steam dragon struck Uchiha Madara again with great force!
"No…"
"My chakra is not enough…"
This thought suddenly arose in Uchiha Madara's mind. The Ten Tails within him also craved chakra: "I need more chakra to defeat this guy..."
As Uchiha Madara's body was sent flying, his gaze fell on the blood-red moon in the sky, as if he had thought of something!
In an instant, Akihara Kagura appeared beside Uchiha Madara and delivered a knee strike to his waist, sending him flying into the sky!
The next moment!
Akihara Kagura, accompanied by golden-red light, appeared above Uchiha Madara once again and stomped heavily on him!
Uchiha Madara's body crashed onto the surface of the sea!
Blood…
Instantly dyed the sea red…
This first Jinchuriki of the Ten Tails in a thousand years, since the end of ancient times, appeared incredibly miserable at this moment!
"To defeat me now…"
"You need to use Infinite Tsukuyomi to gather the chakra of the ninja world…"
Akihara Kagura slowly descended beside Uchiha Madara, lightly smiling as he looked at Uchiha Madara lying on the sea: "Unfortunately, you don't have the chance to use Infinite Tsukuyomi. Hand over the Ten Tails within you. The one who will use Infinite Tsukuyomi and gather all the chakra of the ninja world is me…"
"Madara…"
Akihara Kagura slowly squatted down and spoke leisurely: "You only got the Ten Tails by exploiting a moment of my negligence. You shouldn't wield this power that doesn't belong to you…"
"..."
Uchiha Madara coughed up blood heavily.
Akihara Kagura was right about one thing…
To defeat Akihara Kagura, Infinite Tsukuyomi must be used to collect all the chakra of the ninja world to possibly resolve Akihara Kagura!
But…
He just didn't have the time!
Because no one could stop Akihara Kagura from attacking him continuously!
The ninja world needed someone to hold off Akihara Kagura's relentless attacks so he could have a chance to ascend to the sky and cast Infinite Tsukuyomi!
The idea of collecting chakra to possibly resurrect Kaguya and so forth was completely abandoned by Uchiha Madara at this moment. If he couldn't defeat Akihara Kagura now, he couldn't prevent the ninja world from being destroyed by Akihara Kagura. He had to do it!
"Hand over the Ten Tails within you!"
Akihara Kagura lifted the recovering Uchiha Madara lying on the sea and raised his hand, ready to plunge it directly into his body to extract the Ten Tails!
The next moment!
A figure suddenly appeared beside Akihara Kagura and Uchiha Madara, kicking Akihara Kagura away!
This figure, after kicking away Akihara Kagura, hurriedly placed his hand on Uchiha Madara. A bright light appeared in Uchiha Madara's chest!
This bright light seemed like pure life force, rapidly healing Uchiha Madara's injuries and finally giving him a moment to catch his breath!
"Uh… Are you okay?"
The blond boy who suddenly appeared looked at the barely recognizable Uchiha Madara and felt a bit forlorn: "So, what should we do now?"
"Uzumaki Naruto?"
Uchiha Madara finally saw the newcomer's identity clearly.
The Uzumaki Naruto standing before him seemed peculiar. He looked no different from an ordinary ninja, yet the energy he used to save him seemed to be of the Six Paths level strength?
Moreover…
Hadn't this guy already sacrificed himself?
Why was he appearing here again and even possessing the power of the Six Paths?
"Naruto is alive!"
Jiraiya, seeing Uzumaki Naruto suddenly revive and appear in Uchiha Madara's critical moment, even saving Uchiha Madara, felt his eyes moisten!
At this moment…
Jiraiya recalled the long-forgotten prophecy…
Uzumaki Naruto was the child of destiny spoken of by the Great Toad Sage, destined to save the ninja world at this moment!
Not just Uzumaki Naruto…
Another person who had died at the same time also revived!
"Sasuke…"
Hatake Kakashi looked at the revived Uchiha Sasuke in disbelief. What surprised Kakashi even more was that one of Sasuke's eyes had become a Rinnegan!
"..."
Uchiha Sasuke looked at the mark in his palm, his heart beating again. He also heard Uzumaki Naruto's voice.
This power was given by the Sage of Six Paths…
Through the gift of the Sage of Six Paths, not only did Uchiha Sasuke gain the Six Paths Sage Mode and awaken the Rinnegan, but Uzumaki Naruto also mastered the Yang Release power of the Six Paths…
This power…
Was meant for sealing the possibly resurrected Kaguya Otsutsuki.
As for Akihara Kagura, the Sage of Six Paths believed that with the power of the Six Paths, they should be able to deal with the ordinary ninja Akihara Kagura. The power of the Six Paths was unparalleled.
This power was even greater than that of the Jinchuriki of the Ten Tails, Uchiha Madara!
Uchiha Sasuke believed he now possessed this strength. He took a deep breath, and silver lightning appeared in his palm: "Anyway, let's solve the crisis of the ninja world first!"
The next moment!
Uchiha Sasuke appeared beside Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Madara.
Uchiha Madara, seeing the revived Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, also noticed the changes in these two youngsters, and a new battle plan arose in his mind.
"You two hold off Akihara Kagura…"
Uchiha Madara gazed at Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, doubting even with their strength they could defeat Akihara Kagura: "To defeat him, we must first gather all the chakra of the ninja world… I will go cast Infinite Tsukuyomi…"
"But that might revive the Sage of Six Paths' mother…"
Uchiha Sasuke frowned, remembering the Sage's warning.
"Deal with Kaguya later… Dodge now!"
Uchiha Madara saw the golden-red flash flying towards them, and pushed the two youngsters aside!
The next moment!
Uchiha Madara's body was sent flying again, his freshly healed body heavily damaged once more!
"Let me gain the strength to defeat him first…"
Uchiha Madara, with blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, grinned darkly: "If we can't resolve him now, we have no chance to turn the tables. You two alone might not be his match, as he can indefinitely maintain his current state…"
