The domineering Uchiha drove the Third Hokage mad!

Chapter 469 Madara Uchiha Opens the Eight Gates

As Otsutsuki Sakuya's attack arrived, Susanoo's shoulder and chest armor continued to be damaged.

Fortunately, Madara Uchiha was experienced in battle and was able to launch a timely counterattack, forcing his opponent to leave, but he gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.

Even more troublesome is the opponent's super-fast regeneration ability. When Madara Uchiha's sword aura severed his arm during a counterattack, it instantly healed and grew a new arm at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Sakuya Ōtsutsuki felt the grip of his new arm; it was no different from before. He said calmly, "Your attacks are ineffective against me!"

On the other side, the battle between Hashirama Senju and Seniwa Otsutsuki was equally intense.

Ōtsutsuki Chiiwa activated the Gravity Field Divine Art: "Divine Art: Gravity Crush!"

The gravity around Hashirama Senju instantly increased dozens of times, becoming incredibly heavy, even affecting the flow of chakra.

Seizing the opportunity, Ōtsutsuki Chiiwa manipulated several giant meteorites, each a kilometer in size, to crash down simultaneously. He then unleashed Shinra Tensei, unleashing repulsive force from his palm to accelerate the meteorite swarm, its power comparable to an asteroid impact.

Hashirama Senju took a deep breath, forcefully channeling the Divine Tree chakra within him, and rapidly formed hand seals: "Six Paths Sage Art: Wood Release - True Several Thousand Hands!"

Countless enormous wooden arms emerged from the void, each as thick as a towering tree, wrapped in golden Six Paths Chakra, forming a continuous mountain range in front of them, shattering all the meteorites.

Wood chips and meteorite fragments scattered and flew everywhere, forming a small dust cloud in space.

Then, the wooden arms reached out and grabbed at Chiiwa, forming a circle around her with dozens of arms, blocking all of Chiiwa's escape routes.

Ōtsutsuki Chiiwa, however, showed no fear. Chakra surged around him, and a layer of earth-yellow chakra armor appeared on his body as he withstood the grasping blows from the wooden arm.

With a "crack," the more than 1,000-meter-long wooden arm was forcibly pried open by him.

At the same time, he raised his hand and threw out a Truth-Seeking Ball. The Truth-Seeking Ball, carrying destructive energy, spun and instantly pierced through several wooden arms, flying towards Hashirama Senju.

Hashirama Senju dodged to the side, and the Truth-Seeking Ball grazed his shoulder, shattering a meteorite behind him into pieces.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ōtsutsuki Chiiwa rushed forward, his huge fist slamming towards Senju Hashirama with a whooshing sound. Senju Hashirama hurriedly manipulated his two wooden arms to cross and block.

With a loud "crack," the wooden arm was broken by a punch, and Hashirama Senju was also shaken, his blood surging.

The four fought fiercely in space, their colliding energies creating a dazzling display that even illuminated the surrounding meteorites.

Sakuya Otsutsuki's attacks became increasingly ferocious, with black sword shadows pouring down like a dense rain, each sword aura carrying a strange power.

Madara Uchiha could only struggle to control his Susanoo to parry, being forced to retreat step by step and completely trapped in a passive defensive situation.

The ear-piercing sound of blade energy slicing through Susanoo's armor continued incessantly, each collision causing Madara's arm to go numb. This was the first time he had been suppressed in such a sorry state.

Watching from afar, Uchiha Sanfeng, seemingly having foreseen the future, said with a hint of mockery, "Old Madara, show some of the spirit you had when you dominated the ninja world! You can't even withstand this little bit of attack? Give it your all!"

This voice was like a spark, instantly igniting the pride in Ban's heart.

He raised his head and roared, his chakra suddenly surging.

"Eight Gates Formation - First Gate - Open!"

"Eight Gates Formation - Second Gate - Open... Third Gate... Seventh Gate - Open!"

Blue steam erupted from his body like magma, scorching the surrounding space and causing it to distort slightly.

Madara Uchiha's figure vanished instantly in the steam, and when he reappeared, he had already rushed in front of Sakuya Otsutsuki, his fist slamming down with earth-shattering power.

With the ultimate power of the Eight Gates, he completely turned the tide of the battle and unleashed a furious barrage of blows on Otsutsuki Sakuya. His fists, knee strikes, and elbow strikes rained down on Sakuya, each blow causing Sakuya's body to tremble violently.

If he hadn't possessed the super-fast regeneration ability of the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, he probably would have been killed by this fierce attack long ago.

Just as this extremely violent battle of attack and defense reached a stalemate, Otsutsuki Sakuya's regeneration speed also began to show a slight slowdown.

Suddenly, Ōtsutsuki Chiiwa turned his head sharply, his gaze piercing through the energy turbulence of the battlefield, locking onto Ōtsutsuki Sakuya, who was being brutally beaten.

In those silvery-white pupils, there flashed an absolute, burning loyalty.

"For the glory of the Otsutsuki! For victory! Lord Sakuya, please accept my power!"

Ōtsutsuki Chiiwa's voice, carrying a determination to fight to the death, resounded throughout the entire battlefield.

His figure shoved past Madara Uchiha and rushed directly in front of Sakuya Otsutsuki. Then, he disintegrated at a speed visible to the naked eye, and chakra overflowed from his body, rapidly gathering and compressing in the air, eventually condensing into a scarlet chakra fruit.

The fruit emitted a rich and pure energy fluctuation, as if it had a life of its own, and flew precisely into the hand of Ōtsutsuki Sakuya.

Sakuya Otsutsuki was already in a sorry state due to Madara's fierce attacks. When he felt the pure energy coming from the Chakra Fruit in his hand, a flash of wild joy and ruthlessness appeared in his eyes.

He looked at the chakra fruit before him, which he had obtained at the cost of his comrades' lives, and swallowed it whole.

"For the glory of the Otsutsuki, I felt your power. Chiiwa, your sacrifice was worthwhile!"

An even more powerful burst of chakra erupted from Sakuya Otsutsuki's body in an instant.

His body grew slightly larger, his muscle lines became more defined, and the light in his eyes became increasingly sharp, even distorting the starlight around him. Even the distant meteorites were shaken slightly by this chakra.

After his strength increased dramatically, Sakuya Otsutsuki's aura was several times stronger than before.

He flexed his wrists, feeling the surging power within him: "Now, it's time to end this game."

He swung his sword again: "Sword Technique - New Moon Heavenly Strike - Swiftness!"

This time, the white sword energy surged to over a thousand meters, surrounded by black devouring energy. Its power was several times stronger than before, instantly cleaving a huge gash in Madara Uchiha's Susanoo armor, causing a large amount of golden chakra to leak out.

Madara Uchiha groaned, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and his Susanoo became unstable.

At the same time, Ōtsutsuki Sakuya unleashed another Black Moon Slash, the black blade energy splitting into several beams that simultaneously attacked Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, blocking their escape routes.

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju were instantly put at a disadvantage, and the two exchanged a glance.

"Hashirama, use that technique!" Madara Uchiha shouted, his voice urgent.

"Alright!" Hashirama Senju nodded in response, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.

The two began forming hand seals simultaneously, their chakra surging and intertwining wildly, the golden and green chakra entwining to form a dazzling band of light.

"Six Paths, Sage Art, True Several Thousand Hands!" Hashirama Senju's shout echoed through the universe, carrying a power that pierced the heart.

Countless wooden arms, even larger than before, reappeared, each containing abundant Six Paths level energy. The patterns on the arms were clearly visible as they crushed towards Shuo Ye.

Madara Uchiha then unleashed his ultimate attack: "Armored Thousand-Armed Giant Buddha!"

His Susanoo merged into the giant Buddha head of the True Thousand Hands, forming a golden Buddha thousands of meters tall. The Buddha held a huge sword, on which golden chakra flowed, radiating an invincible aura.

The giant Buddha opened its eyes, golden light bursting forth from them, and unleashed a majestic roar at Ōtsutsuki Sakuya. The shockwave from the sound wave struck Sakuya first, disrupting his movements.

Sakuya Ōtsutsuki was jolted by the sound wave, his mind reeling: "This power... how is this possible?!"

Sakuya Otsutsuki forcibly steadied himself and swung his sword to unleash several sword energies, but they were easily blocked by the wooden arm of the True Thousand Hands, and the sword energies could not even leave a mark on the arm.

Then, the giant Buddha's vajra slammed down with devastating force, instantly sending Ōtsutsuki Sakuya flying, his body embedded in a giant asteroid with a diameter of ten thousand meters.

The asteroid's surface was instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks, and countless fragments of rock broke off from the planet's surface.

The wooden arms of the True Thousand Hands wrapped around Sakuya, trapping him tightly. The golden chakra on the arms formed sealing runes, suppressing the flow of his chakra.

No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free, and an incredulous look appeared on his face: "No! I can't lose!"

"it's over!"

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju shouted simultaneously, and the surrounding cosmic dust and meteorite fragments began to gather: "Six Paths: Planetary Devastation!"

Countless rocks gathered from the surrounding asteroid fragments, enveloping the trapped Ōtsutsuki Sakuya and gradually forming a huge black sphere with a diameter of one kilometer.

The surface of the sphere was covered with golden sealing runes, which flowed continuously, radiating powerful sealing energy and firmly sealing off Sakuya Otsutsuki's chakra.

Sakuya Otsutsuki roared and struggled wildly inside the sphere, but he was unable to break through the seal.

As the last rune lit up, the seal was completely completed. Ōtsutsuki Sakuya was successfully sealed within the Six Paths Chibaku Tensei. The black sphere slowly drifted into the depths of space and eventually disappeared into the nebula.

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju slowly closed their hand seals, and Susanoo and True Several Thousand Hands gradually dissipated, turning into chakra and returning to their bodies.

Both of them looked exhausted, their legs trembling slightly. The series of powerful attacks they had just unleashed had almost depleted the divine tree chakra within them.

They supported each other, smiled at each other, and all past grievances vanished in that moment, leaving only the tacit understanding and relief that came from fighting side by side.

"We won..."

"Hashirama Senju said softly, his voice slightly hoarse."

Uchiha Dazzle nodded, a rare smile appearing on his lips: "Yes, we won."

Seeing this, Uchiha Mitsunori smiled slightly: "As expected of a legendary ninja, you certainly didn't disappoint me."
