The continuous explosions made people's ears ring violently, and the billowing smoke and dust that shot up obscured their vision. For a moment, the area around Amegakure seemed to be shrouded in a thick fog.
After a while, the smoke and dust cleared and visibility returned, allowing everyone to receive information from the outside world.
At this moment, Madara Uchiha and Hyuga Kaze were still in a standoff, but Madara had retreated quite a distance, and his expression was even more unpleasant, clearly indicating that he had suffered a slight loss in the previous exchange.
"You are indeed a formidable opponent."
Even though he was briefly at a disadvantage, Madara Uchiha still maintained an arrogant and domineering demeanor. He said seriously, "Your strength is only below mine and Hashirama's. As your opponent, I, Madara Uchiha, acknowledge you!"
Madara Uchiha paused here, then declared with even greater seriousness, "Next, I will use even greater power to defeat you. Pay attention, Limbo: Border Jail!"
After being reminded, Madara Uchiha launched a fierce counterattack.
He first manipulated the Susanoo giant to draw its twin swords, and its mountain-like body charged wildly towards Hyuga Kaze while wielding the swords! Then he used a technique to summon four invisible clones that quickly attacked Hyuga Kaze.
As a powerful figure who forged himself in the Warring States period, Madara Uchiha possessed not only the fighting spirit to conquer heaven and earth, but also a certain amount of strategic wisdom in combat. Madara Uchiha felt no shame about using this invisible attack; it was the power of his own eyes.
Although the Limbo clones are completely invisible to ordinary people, they are as clear as palm lines to Hyuga Azuryu. However, he couldn't be bothered with these clones at the moment, as he had an improved double-layered Qi Shield protecting him!
Therefore, Hyuga Kaze focused solely on dealing with the Susanoo giant. He raised his finger to the sky, and a bolt of lightning condensed at his fingertip, forming a dazzling purple current that soared into the sky.
When this current came into contact with the clouds in the sky, it turned the entire cloud layer purple. Then, boundless lightning flashed and condensed in the sky, forming a rolling ocean of lightning.
Immediately following, bolts of lightning as thick as buckets of water struck down, their target the charging Susanoo Titan. The lightning was incredibly fast and incredibly powerful; the successive strikes not only made it impossible for the Susanoo Titan to move an inch, but also caused its entire body to crumble into dust and pieces!
Although his Susanoo was blocked by Hyuga Kaze, Madara Uchiha was not discouraged. He simply looked at his clone with expectant eyes. Ninjas' defensive capabilities are generally lower than their offensive capabilities, and he didn't believe that Hyuga Kaze could have the same defensive power as his Susanoo.
But the outcome was once again beyond Madara Uchiha's expectations. Under his watchful eye, the Limbo clone's attack struck Hyuga Kaze three inches from his body. Yet, at that very short distance, the Limbo clone seemed to encounter some invisible shield, and their chakra-infused attack completely missed its mark.
No, it wasn't a missed opportunity. The chakra seemed to be absorbed and neutralized layer by layer by something, and then it actually rebounded back with exponential strength. To Madara Uchiha's astonishment, the clones were all bounced back by an invisible force, heading straight for his main body. Unwilling to fight himself, Madara Uchiha finally had no choice but to use his movement technique to dodge.
"Chakra Absorption"
Although he dodged, Madara Uchiha didn't just sit idly by. He reached out and pressed his hand on the Limbo clone, trying to absorb some of Hyuga Kaze's chakra to analyze the nature of his power, but he couldn't absorb anything!
Although Madara Uchiha could clearly sense some residual strange energy on these clones besides his own chakra, he couldn't absorb anything from them.
The lightning in the sky had dissipated, and the Susanoo giant had been almost completely destroyed. Madara Uchiha recalled the Susanoo giant to guard him and watched Hyuga Kaze warily.
"You're not using chakra after all. What kind of power is this?"
Hinata Kaze stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Uchiha Madara with a faint smile and no words. Although others wouldn't understand even if he told them, he didn't have a habit of casually revealing his secrets.
"Stop! Stop! Are you my junior, Uchiha Madara? Why are you attacking Hyuga Kaze!"
Just as Madara Uchiha and Kaze Hyuga were facing off, a cute girl in a pink dress jumped to Kaze Hyuga's side with her Mangekyou Sharingan and yelled at him.
"The Mangekyou Sharingan, I never expected there to be such a talent among the younger generation."
Seeing Uchiha Hikaru baring his teeth and claws at him, Uchiha Madara frowned. Although he was somewhat annoyed, he temporarily abandoned the idea of continuing to fight; he still had some patience for the Uchiha clan.
"You're my junior; I'm at least several decades older than you!"
Uchiha Hikari seemed to take Madara's tolerance for granted, and with her hands on her hips, she exuded an even stronger aura than Madara.
"What nonsense are you spouting, kid?"
Ban was quite annoyed. If it weren't for the fact that Hikari was so young, he would have taught her a lesson.
"Madara-sama"
Black Zetsu's hideous body emerged from the ground. Hyuga Kaze's strength was far beyond his expectations; he couldn't let Uchiha Madara take any more risks. He had been lying low and plotting for over a thousand years to fulfill the conditions for resurrecting his mother. What would he do if Uchiha Madara was killed by Hyuga Kaze?
"Madara-sama"
Black Zetsu whispered to Madara Uchiha, "According to intelligence, she is indeed a little older than you. She is the ultimate weapon recorded in the Uchiha clan's history."
Madara had just suffered a setback, and when Black Zetsu reminded him, he was very careful and didn't dare to speak loudly.
