Madara, who had just absorbed all nine tailed beasts, was dealing with the sarcastic Tobirama Senju when he suddenly interrupted. However, Madara, who had used a Rinnegan, was not someone like Obito, who was only half-baked, could compare to.
Sasuke decided to go and test his skills against Madara, but his ideals were far from reality. In just one encounter, Sasuke was completely overwhelmed by Madara's Limbo: Border Jail.
"Sasuke!" Seeing Sasuke being held hostage by his great-grandfather, Itachi immediately wanted to go and help.
"Just focus on your own business, Itachi. Don't worry about Sasuke!" Tianqi scolded Itachi, who wanted to help.
"Grandpa, Great-Grandpa was a madman. If I don't go to help him now, Sasuke's life will be in danger. Grandpa, I can't watch over Sasuke!"
"With me here, Sasuke will be fine. I can bring you back from the underworld and I can bring Sasuke back too. Don't worry about Sasuke. Besides, this might not be a bad thing for him. Just wait and see!" Although Tianqi didn't open his eyes, he was constantly sensing the situation of Sasuke and Madara. He wanted to see if Madara could make a move against Sasuke, his descendant.
"This world is Hashirama's contradictory world. In order to protect some things, we have to sacrifice others!" Madara said calmly, holding Sasuke's sword.
"Stop, Madara, don't..." Seeing Madara about to attack Sasuke, Tobirama Senju, who was bound, tried to dissuade him with great emotion.
Perhaps it was because Sasuke was Tsunade's grandson, or perhaps it was because Sasuke resembled Izuna, whom he had killed, that Tobirama Senju, despite his dislike for Tenchi, felt no hatred towards Sasuke whatsoever; in fact, he wanted to protect and save him.
"Even if that person is a close friend, a brother, or even your own child!" Madara said, plunging his knife into Sasuke's chest. He could have stabbed Sasuke in the heart, but he didn't. He continued calmly, "I gave you plenty of time. I told you I didn't have much time left. I'm sorry..."
"The fact that you possess the Straight Sharingan proves that you have lost a lot so far, yet you still want to seek something. But all of this is about to end. Losing yourself is the true end!" Madara said, looking at his struggling great-grandson.
Although this attack wasn't fatal, it was enough to render Sasuke powerless to resist, and he might even die if he didn't receive timely treatment. However, with Tianqi here, it shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Even when faced with his great-grandson, Ban ultimately held back.
"I can't die... I absolutely can't die, ahhhhh!!!" Sasuke struggled to get up, but his injuries were too severe, and he collapsed again as soon as he bent over.
Seeing that Sasuke was too weak to even stand up, Madara planted Sasuke's Kusanagi sword in the ground and turned to leave.
"Brother... the meaning of my life... cannot be... in a place like this... before a real village is built, before a real Kage appears, I... must not die..." After saying this, Sasuke unconsciously collapsed completely.
With Sasuke and Naruto on their last breaths, the Allied Shinobi Forces were blocked by Zetsu's Wood Release: Great Buddha, making everything a complete disaster.
When Tianqi realized that Ban hadn't really gone all out to kill him, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed. Old Ban had ultimately held back. It seemed that Ban hadn't had his humanity devoured by Black Zetsu's Gu Dance. There was still hope!
"Sasuke!!!" Seeing his younger brother fall down, Itachi could no longer hold back and rushed over without thinking.
"Time Stop!" Seeing Itachi lose his mind and try to run over, Tianqi raised his hand and used the power of time to imprison him.
"Grandpa, let me go! Sasuke's life hangs by a thread. If we don't save him now, we're doomed. Whether you can revive Sasuke or not, I can't watch him die in front of me!" As he spoke, Itachi activated his Rinnegan, trying to use the power of that eye to break free from its restraints and save Sasuke.
"Itachi, Itachi, you still lost your composure when it came to your brother. You don't need to try anymore. The power of that eye is not enough to break through my restraints. And open your eyes wide and see! The people who are going to save Sasuke have arrived!" Tianqi shook his head and pointed in the direction where Sasuke was.
Upon hearing his grandfather's words, Itachi looked up in Sasuke's direction and, sure enough, a snow-white figure was healing Sasuke.
"It's Kabuto! He actually escaped the Tsukuyomi genjutsu I specially made for him?" Seeing that it was the powerful Kabuto who was saving Sasuke, Itachi was immediately relieved.
Previously, seeing Kabuto's pitiful state, Itachi felt pity and did not kill him. Instead, he used his powerful eyes and understanding to create a special illusion space for Kabuto. It is truly surprising that his previous good deed has been rewarded so quickly.
"It's no use you going there now. Kabuto, who has the legacy of Ryuchi Cave, is more suitable than you. Take a good look at Sasuke's life; it has stopped flowing and begun to recover!"
"Phew, I knew it. It seems I was worrying too much!" Itachi breathed a sigh of relief after sensing that Sasuke was indeed recovering.
"You can stay rational in other matters, but you panicked when it came to Sasuke. If you don't overcome this weakness, it will cause a lot of trouble in the future. After this matter is over, go back with your clan and never leave the ninja world again!"
"Yes, I understand!" Knowing that he had disappointed his grandfather, Itachi nodded.
Tianqi withdrew his time power to release the control and continued to adjust. His powerful chakra was constantly agitated, and the static electricity on his body was also constantly amplified. Tianqi was going all out for the person he was about to face.
On the other side, Madara absorbed the Gedo Mazo, which had fused with the nine tailed beasts, and instantly gained the power of the Six Paths. After obtaining the power of the Six Paths, he did not set off to teach Tianqi a lesson, but went to the other battlefield to retrieve the last Rinnegan that was on Obito.
However, during the process of retrieving the eyes, Madara Uchiha encountered Might Guy, who almost kicked the game to the end. For a moment, he was held back by this guy who only knew taijutsu.
Meanwhile, Sasuke was being treated by Kabuto, Orochimaru (who had broken through to the next level), Karin, and others, and was constantly recovering. Naruto also obtained the other half of the Nine-Tails in Obito's Kamui dimension, and both were recovering.
"I never expected Might Guy to be able to unleash such power to suppress his great-grandfather. The ninja world is truly extraordinary!" Itachi was also very surprised to see that the watermelon-headed Might Guy had actually suppressed Madara, who had absorbed the Ten-Tails and possessed the Rinnegan.
While everyone else was focused on Might Guy's moment of glory, Garuda and Tianqi frowned slightly as a familiar chakra appeared around Sasuke.
"Here you are, hehe, it was worth the wait!" Sensing an invisible chakra approaching Sasuke's side, Tianqi guessed with his eyes closed that it was the Sage of Six Paths.
"This is Uncle Yu Yi's chakra. I never expected his chakra to reappear in the ninja world on the battlefield. Tian Qi, this..." Garuda was shocked. She was even more shocked by the appearance of her uncle's chakra than by Might Guy.
"Everyone thought the Sage of Six Paths had long since vanished from the ninja world, but what everyone doesn't know is that he didn't completely disappear. He exists in another form. Hehe, it seems my plan didn't go wrong!" Feeling the Sage of Six Paths' chakra gathering in the air, Tianqi smiled knowing that his plan had finally gone as expected.
Just a few minutes later, the battle between Madara and Guy came to an end. The Eight Gates technique was too short-lived. Just as Guy unleashed his final kick, Night Guy, Naruto and Sasuke, who had received the power of the Sage of Six Paths, fully awoke.
Naruto's sudden appearance saved Guy's life, much to Madara's surprise. But the surprises didn't stop there. Naruto's Lava Release: Rasenshuriken severed the Divine Tree, making Madara exclaim that things had changed dramatically.
However, this unexpected event allowed Madara to completely absorb the Divine Tree, which not only restored the stamina and chakra he had wasted in the battle with Guy, but also gave him the final power to realize his plan.
As Madara gained power, Naruto and Sasuke also gathered together. The fact that one of them had obtained the power of the Six Paths and the other had awakened the Rinnegan surprised Madara, and Itachi was also confused by this sudden situation.
"This is the power of the Six Paths and the Rinnegan. They gained even greater power when they were on the verge of death. What did they do in those few short minutes?" Itachi frowned as he looked at his younger brother and Naruto, who had suddenly become stronger.
