"Since Indra and Ashura possess such power, they are probably already comparable to Hamura!" The old man was shocked, and at the same time, he couldn't help but sigh. The Hagoromo lineage was indeed stronger than the Hamura lineage. They truly deserved to be descendants of the Sage of Six Paths.
The battle between Indra and Ashura continued, and the ground continued to shake. After marveling at it for a while, the old man stopped paying attention. Hamura's last instructions were to guard that body and not let it return to Earth. This was also the way Hamura's lineage protected Earth. His last instructions also forbade them from interfering in Earth's wars, even though these two people were Hamura's nephews.
"Garuda, it's about time. We should head back!" The old man never mentioned where they were going back to. After all, Tian Qi was present, and he couldn't let anyone else know about that place. However, Tian Qi, who had read the original Naruto, naturally knew where that place was, but he didn't reveal it. He tried to say as little as possible to avoid creating unnecessary misunderstandings.
Upon hearing this, Garuda glanced at Tianqi with great reluctance, but seeing Tianqi's determined gaze, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She believed that she would definitely be able to reunite with Tianqi again, even if it took a long time, as long as there was this glimmer of hope, it was enough.
"Goodbye, Tianqi!" Garuda said goodbye with reluctance.
"Remember my promise, Garuda. As soon as I return, I will come to fetch you as soon as possible!"
After watching Garuda and the others disappear into starlight, Tian Qi breathed a sigh of relief. With this, he had almost no regrets in this era. Now, he only needed to wait for the battle between Indra and Asura to end to find out whether the space-time tunnel could be opened.
"Indra, give up! Although your power has increased, you still can't be my match!" Ashura clasped his hands tightly together, and countless tree roots slammed into Susanoo like a tidal wave. Because the power of the tailed beasts was sealed by Tianqi, and after failing to break the seal, Ashura was forced to use the power of Sage Mode. Although he used Sage Chakra, his face did not show the unique facial markings of a Sage. He could use Sage Mode without the Sage Mark, which was the most perfect Sage Mode. With the blessing of Sage Mode, Ashura's power also greatly increased. With tree roots, wood dragons, and wood puppet techniques, Indra really felt like he couldn't handle it.
However, despite his words, Ashura was not as relaxed as he claimed. After such a long and intense battle, he was panting heavily, and beads of sweat were constantly dripping from his forehead.
"Shut up! The word 'give up' has never been part of my battles, Indra's!" Indra stood on the center of Susanoo's forehead, slightly bent over and squinting as he spoke. His heaving chest showed that he was no better off than Ashura. Even the Eternal Eye, which was said to possess infinite power, was aching, and his chakra was severely depleted.
Upon hearing this, Ashura was also filled with rage. Looking at the aftermath of the battle around him, Ashura felt a pang of sorrow. This continent, spanning thousands of miles, had been sunk and turned into a vast ocean. Countless innocent lives had perished in this disaster. Ashura was worried that if things continued like this, the world might truly be destroyed.
"Since you refuse to give up, then don't blame me for going all out. Indra, be prepared!" Ashura clapped his hands together forcefully, and a massive amount of chakra erupted instantly.
"Sage Art: Wood Release - True Several Thousand Hands!" The wooden figure slowly sat down with his hands clasped together, and a giant Buddha with thousands of hands on his back soared into the sky. With the blessing of the Sage Art, the True Several Thousand Hands Buddha reached an astonishing height of 1,200 meters. Even Ultraman from next door would have to take a couple of slaps at that height.
"It's that move again! It's finally here!" Indra looked up at the thousands of meters tall True Thousand Hands. The powerful pressure made his hands clench tightly and tremble uncontrollably. Having been mentally broken by this thing several times in a row, Indra had indeed developed a fear of it. But who was Indra? He was the embodiment of power and a born warrior. At this moment, he was determined to dispel this fear and prove himself.
"I, Indra, can lose to anyone, but you! Ashura, I can never lose to you, I can never be defeated by you!" Cutting off the last escape route against his younger brother Ashura and dispelling the shadow in his heart that was dominated by the True Several Thousand Hands, Indra finally broke through himself, and his power reached an unprecedented peak. The Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan in his left eye disappeared, replaced by rings of nine-tomoe Rinnegan. With Indra's breakthrough, Susanoo also instantly grew to 1,200 meters, the same as the True Several Thousand Hands, and its attack mode changed to the two-sided, four-armed Ashura form.
"It's finally here!" Tianqi stood up abruptly as he watched Indra break through. This was the battle between the Uchiha and the Senju's predecessors, and also their first ultimate battle. He didn't want to miss anything.
"Supreme Buddha!" Although shocked by Indra's Rinnegan, Ashura knew he couldn't hold back now. He activated Supreme Buddha, and countless giant wooden hands attacked.
"Reincarnation Slash!" Indra didn't hold back this time either. With the power of the Rinnegan, he drained all the chakra and most of his life energy from his body. Susanoo wielded a sword in each of its four hands, and countless sword energies rushed forward.
"Asura!"
"Anisan!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The two sides shouted and clashed, countless waves splashing up and obscuring the two fighters. As they fought desperately, the ground, which had only been shaking, began to tremble violently, as if the end of the world had arrived, and a heavy rain began to fall from the sky.
The five-minute-long, desperate battle ended, and the earth stopped trembling. Tian Qi knew the battle was over, but he didn't know who had won. As the waves receded, the two towering giants disappeared, and Indra appeared on the sea, carrying the Kusanagi Sword, walking step by step toward Tian Qi.
"Are you alright, Indra?" Tianqi quickly stepped forward to support Indra and asked with concern.
The once spirited Indra now appeared extremely disheveled. His powerful aura had vanished, his clothes were tattered, and his former kingly presence was gone. He looked like an ordinary person. Tian Qi could sense that Indra was on the verge of collapse, with very little life energy left. The only thing keeping him from falling was his unwavering belief.
However, Tianqi soon saw Asura dragging his tired body toward them. Compared to Indra, although Asura was seriously injured, his body still had some blood and life energy left, and his immortal body was continuously supporting Asura's body.
Judging from this situation, there is no doubt that Indra has ultimately been defeated...!
