Chapter 1017: The Epic Showdown Unfolds!
Chapter 1017: The Epic Showdown Unfolds!
"Xianfa, Raijutsu, Raijin!"
A powerful Xianfa strike slammed into Madara, sending him flying a considerable distance.
As for the automatic defense of the Sonneityama?
Madara had previously been shattered by Yamanaka Houji, consuming a significant amount of his energy, and later, he unleashed the 'Shinjuha Koutan' to give birth to the Shinju while activating Infinite Tsukuyomi.
This left him in a weakened state, unable to temporarily gather the Sonneityama.
Without the Sonneityama's assistance, it was acceptable to be blown away by a near-instantaneous Raijin strike.
As for why Uzumaki Budou could instantly cast this Raijutsu, remember her Special Organ?
The Demon Horn!
It greatly enhances her control over Rai and Katon techniques. Even an S-rank Raijin could be instantly cast.
As for why it was Xianfa?
Of course, it's because Uzumaki Budou can also use Senjutsu Chakra.
For her, Hyuga Aikotsuki, and Yamanaka Houji, it's not a difficult task.
The primary function of the Special Organ is not combat or chakra storage but to absorb natural energy, allowing one to become accustomed to it and then master Sage Mode.
The initial few individuals, under the constant influence of the Special Organ, all became accustomed to natural energy.
This is similar to the state of Heavy, the 'Pseudo Shinjitai,' where the difficulty of mastering Sage Mode is significantly reduced.
Tang Ping naturally wouldn't withhold the method of learning Sage Mode, and with the addition of several sacred sites, the scarcity of Sage Mode slots was alleviated.
Therefore, it's not surprising that Uzumaki Budou can enter Sage Mode.
Furthermore, with the ability to liquefy natural energy at her disposal, she can instantly enter Sage Mode, catching Madara off guard.
Sage Mode + Special Organ!
The combination of the two immediately put Madara at a disadvantage.
The already formidable Uzumaki Budou, upon entering Sage Mode, displayed a Flame Crest on her forehead and a golden shadow at the corner of her eye, demonstrating her profound mastery of Sage Mode.
In contrast, Jiraiya's face almost turned into a toad, a clear indication that he hadn't truly grasped Sage Mode.
Only those with minimal changes can be considered to have truly mastered Sage Mode.
At this moment, Uzumaki Budou utilized Sage Mode to successfully overpower Uzumaki Madara, the 'Ninja World's Asura.'
Suddenly, she formed hand seals and performed a familiar technique.
"Xianfa, Amaterasu!"
A cerulean glow appeared on her Ninjato.
Entering Sage Mode, Yukimi's Sage Mode provided the strongest enhancement to her fire techniques, without which she wouldn't have been able to use this technique.
The key lies in the flame's temperature! Cerulean.
In the past, Tang Ping relied on this technique to be invincible.
Now, it was being used by Uzumaki Budou.
However, this could be considered a clever move on her part.
After all, while she excels in both Rai and Katon techniques, she isn't specialized in Katon.
As for its power?
Tang Ping can confidently assert its strength.
Amaterasu has never failed to impress in terms of power.
Even if the opponent ascends to the Six Paths, their body gains a qualitative enhancement.
But when facing Amaterasu, a moment of carelessness could turn them into ashes.
At that point, no matter how strong their regenerative abilities are, it would be useless.
"Sword Dance of Flames!"
Uzumaki Budou executed the sword technique of the Uzumaki Clan.
The key is Amaterasu.
Once it hits, even a Six Paths-level body can't withstand it.
Compared to Tang Ping's pure Amaterasu, Uzumaki Budou's Amaterasu further leverages the advantage of her weapon.
Not only does it significantly increase the power of the technique, but it also reduces the difficulty of casting it.
A genius idea!
Facing Uzumaki Budou's pressure, Madara, who fell below, didn't panic but instead eagerly engaged in battle.
Their confrontation was swift as lightning, with Ninjutsu and Genjutsu techniques interwoven.
However, in these aspects, Uzumaki Budou was at a slight disadvantage.
After all, Madara remained at the Six Paths level!
Even with his previous exhaustion, he still held a significant advantage in certain areas.
For example, the Rinnegan! When facing the Eternal Mangekyou, it naturally suppresses it.
For instance, in a confrontation of eye powers, Madara only needed to use a fraction of his eye power, while Uzumaki Budou required at least twice as much.
And this is already with the 'Sage Mode' enhancement, which significantly boosts her foundation.
Without Sage Mode, the eye power confrontation might require ten times the eye power to match him.
And this disadvantage in both aspects also allowed Uzumaki Budou to level out some of her advantages.
The abilities of both sides were endless, and ordinary ninjas, let alone participating, could barely see clearly.
"Senkaku Blade!"
Uzumaki Budou seized the opportunity, enduring a punch to land this Raijutsu on Madara.
"Useless attack!"
Madara's expressionless evaluation made it seem as if the person with a charred wound on his chest wasn't himself.
There was no other way; this injury was severe for others, but for him, it was merely a trivial matter, and he could recover quickly even without paying attention.
"Is that so!"
Uzumaki Budou stood up from the ground, blood dripping from the corner of her mouth, but a glint of determination flashed in her eyes.
Indeed, the Senkaku Blade had little effect on Madara.
The most ⊥new⊥small⊥say⊥in⊥six⊥9⊥⊥book⊥⊥bar⊥⊥first⊥send!
But what she wanted was not the damage but the paralysis effect!
Without this effect, even the sharpest Amaterasu couldn't hit its target.
Whoosh!
Her body suddenly accelerated, and the Thunder Flame Wings behind her stretched out, dragging a string of afterimages towards Madara.
"A mere firefly dares to compete with the moon and stars?"
Madara arrogantly commented, simultaneously swinging the Monk's Staff to deliver a fierce blow.
"Eh!"
He felt something was wrong when attacking, but he couldn't pinpoint the problem.
Of course, he couldn't sense it.
Because even with the strongest paralysis effect, it only affected him to a certain extent, at most reducing his speed slightly, which he barely noticed.
But this slight influence made him pay a price.
Puh!
The sound of a blade piercing flesh rang out.
The Monk's Staff naturally wouldn't make such a sound; this was the sound of Madara's left arm being pierced.
However, his counterattack was fierce.
Bang!!
Just as Uzumaki Budou got her hand on Rinnekyou, she was kicked away by the shadow.
Even when facing the Tails, the 'shadow' could kick like an adult beating up a child, and the power of this kick was unimaginable.
If it weren't for the type of attack that blunted the blow, Uzumaki Budou might have to consider her resurrection.
At this moment, due to the Raike and Sage Mode on her body, her resistance was extremely high, causing her to vomit a few mouthfuls of blood and almost spit out her internal organs, but her life was not in danger.
The biggest trouble was that the shadow's kick landed on her right shoulder.
As a result, she was not only injured but also unable to continue holding the sword.
Although losing an arm was not a significant issue for her, and there were ways to treat it, it would take time!
It couldn't be healed instantly.
Unless it was Dojin, who could directly use 'Higan' in his 'elementalization' state to perform the Nirvana Technique, which would make him virtually 'immortal' as long as he had sufficient spiritual energy or chakra.
While Uzumaki Budou had already entered the 'elementalization' state, she didn't know the Nirvana Technique that followed, so she couldn't instantly recover from her injuries.
Seriously injured!
With this injury, she had exchanged Madara's arm.
Although it wasn't his most commonly used right arm, the loss of his left arm was still a significant problem for Madara.
For a ninja, losing a left arm meant a reduction in combat effectiveness by at least one-tenth, and in severe cases, their combat power could be halved.
As for why it was certain that Madara had lost his left arm?
Naturally, it was because of Amaterasu, which was still on Madara's left arm at this moment and hadn't been drawn out.
Madara's resilient arm had already been 'melted' by the Cerulean Flame, leaving a wound as thick as an egg, and there was no sign of recovery.
Clang! Madara put down the Monk's Staff with his right hand and pulled out the Ninjato on his left arm, throwing it to the ground.
At this point, his left arm was almost burned off, and there was no chance of recovery in a short time.
In this situation, he naturally chose another approach.
He found a way to repair his arm! The solution was simple.
Ketsu!
He could use a part of the opponent's body as material.
After confirming the plan in his mind, Madara turned to Ketsu, who was controlling Obito's 'corpse,' and ordered:
"Give me your left arm!"
As he spoke, his gaze remained fixed on Uzumaki Budou.
Now he also confirmed that the opponent could harm him, so he naturally had to be more cautious.
However, what Madara didn't know was that at this moment, several people were preparing to watch Hei Jue and say the words 'digging out his heart' to him.
