Chapter 247: Hyuga Cangyue: Solo Kill the Shinobi World's Asura!
Whoosh!
The Zhu Rong Armor occasionally spewed flames, allowing Dong Ping to adjust his speed.
This alone was enough to give Dong Ping a significant advantage in close combat.
At the same time, the enhanced power of the Heaven's Cloud Sword in his hand also gave him unmatched lethality.
As he approached Uchiha Madara at high speed, he swung his longsword.
Originally, Dong Ping thought that after entering the initial stage of Susanoo, with his body enveloped by several blue bone-like shadows, Madara would take the hit head-on.
After all, given Madara's personality, this choice was the most likely.
But unexpectedly, Madara sidestepped and kicked at the same time.
So fast!
The thought flashed through Dong Ping's mind.
After entering Sage Mode, his reaction speed had greatly improved, but Madara still managed to catch him off guard, which was quite frustrating.
It must be Hakke's doing!
Otherwise, with Madara's extremely aged body, it would be impossible to sustain such speed.
The close-quarters battle begins! Dong Ping in Sage Mode was much stronger than before, especially with the defensive Zhu Rong Armor and the offensive Heaven's Cloud Sword. If it weren't for his inferior techniques and awareness compared to Madara, he would have taken the upper hand long ago.
However, the good news was that he was constantly absorbing Madara's experience, allowing his Taijutsu to evolve.
No wonder they say that the fastest way for a ninja to improve is on the battlefield. If you don't improve, you'll lose and die, and even if you want to improve slowly, you can't.
After dozens of exchanges.
"Flame Finger!"
Dong Ping abruptly pointed forward with his left hand.
A white pillar of light shot out, hitting Madara.
But Susanoo slightly blocked it, and it didn't pierce through instantly. At the same time, Madara moved quickly, preventing Dong Ping's carefully planned strike from succeeding.
"Brat!"
Uchiha Madara's battle intent emerged.
Previously, he had been fighting with a playful attitude, but now he had finally entered the combat stage.
Of course, when fighting Dong Ping, it was naturally impossible for Madara to perform the kind of manipulation he did in the future four battles, such as 'borrowing his hand to form hand seals.' Their strength gap was nowhere near that level.
Dong Ping felt no shame in using Flame Finger to ambush Madara during the battle.
He was a ninja, not a warrior.
For a ninja, as long as they could win, any means were justified.
Bang! Dong Ping took a hit from Susanoo's skeletal right arm, but he also punched Madara back.
Mutual damage!
Uchiha Madara also understood that the initial stage of Susanoo couldn't withstand the Heaven's Cloud Sword, so he never allowed himself to be cut by it.
"It seems like I'm not a match for him alone?"
Dong Ping realized this as he adjusted his stance and launched another attack.
He had used Sage Mode, Sage Spell, and Lava Release, but Madara handled them with ease, making Dong Ping feel a bit embarrassed.
One could only say that he lived up to his reputation as the Shinobi World's Asura!
Even in such a poor state, his combat power still held no water.
Flame Column Array! Dong Ping suddenly used his Ninjutsu.
With his current mastery of Fire Release Ninjutsu and the boost from Sage Mode, he could directly perform A-rank and below Fire Release techniques.
Boom! Uchiha Madara was blown away by the flame columns.
However, due to the protection of Susanoo, he wasn't injured.
If Dong Ping wanted to break through Madara's defense, he could do so with the Heaven's Cloud Sword, but Madara didn't give him the chance.
Madara's combat awareness was unmatched.
But Dong Ping had also achieved his goal.
He aimed the Heaven's Cloud Sword at Madara in mid-air.
"Shoot him down, Divine Bullet!"
The sword blade instantly expanded, extending forward like a bullet.
It was easy to dodge on the ground, but in the sky, there was nowhere to hide.
Whoosh! Susanoo in mid-air suddenly expanded.
From the initial state of a few bones and one arm, it instantly entered the first stage.
It transformed into a skeletal upper body, guarding Madara.
Riiiiip!
The first stage of Susanoo couldn't withstand the Heaven's Cloud Sword, and it was quickly pierced through layer after layer of defense, like hot knife through butter.
In response, a large amount of chakra rapidly filled the skeletal frame, giving it meridians and flesh, resembling a giant's upper body.
The second stage of Susanoo!
Of course, at this stage, it was still impossible to block the Sage Spell, but it merely slowed down the piercing speed.
Zila!
Two lightning-clad long swords appeared in Susanoo's hands, and with a heavy slash, they severed the extended blade of the Ame no Murakumo.
Note that it wasn't a crushing blow to the Ame no Murakumo, but rather a severing of its extended portion.
"As expected of Uchiha Madara!" Dong Ping muttered to himself, a glimmer of anticipation flashing in his eyes. "How will you counter this?"
Indeed, the true killing move was not his own.
At the side of the battlefield.
Hu!
Hyuga Cangyue took a deep breath, and as she witnessed the second stage of Susanoo severing the Ame no Murakumo, she unleashed the right fist she had been charging with all her might.
Triple Divine Void Strike!
The three transparent fist auras, superimposed and condensed to the extreme, struck with the force of shattering the sky towards Uchiha Madara, who was about to land.
Boom!!!
Susanoo was instantly shattered.
Even though the Triple Divine Void Strike was far less devastating than the Eighty Divine Void Strikes, its destructive power was still exaggerated beyond measure.
If it were the complete form of Susanoo, the Triple Divine Void Strike would have been ineffective.
But with just the second form, even with Madara's Mangekyo Sharingan enhancing Susanoo, it couldn't withstand the attack.
He wasn't in his prime state! His aged body and limited chakra were already disadvantages.
The crucial factor was that the Sharingan in his eyes belonged to someone else, and his own Rinnegan was currently with Nagato, making it impossible for him to exhibit his full power.
Therefore, it wasn't impossible for the second form of Susanoo to be shattered.
"Is he dead?"
Hyuga Cangyue carefully observed the battlefield but couldn't find any traces of Uchiha Madara.
Even if it were Daimoku or the Third Raikage, they might have died from her sudden attack, but she had an intuition that the opponent hadn't perished from her strike.
If it were that easy to defeat him, Dong Ping wouldn't have waited for him to die to claim his 'inheritance'; she could have just taken it.
"You have earned the right to know my name. State it!" Uchiha Madara's voice echoed from the shattered area, and his entire being seemed to transform from a phantom into a real person.
"Hyuga Cangyue!"
As she stated her name, the girl also pondered how her opponent had escaped her most powerful attack.
The Divine Void Strike, aside from its difficulty in hitting its target, had undeniable destructive power.
Moreover, it was a triple strike.
In Hyuga Cangyue's eyes, it was impossible for the opponent to survive.
Of course, Dong Ping hadn't informed her about the Sharingan's forbidden technique.
Izanagi!
This ultimate genjutsu of the Sharingan was Uchiha's ultimate life-saving technique.
It could be used with just the three-tomoe Sharingan.
By sacrificing one Sharingan, events unfavorable to the user within a certain period could be altered to never have happened, and only favorable outcomes would become reality.
It was a technique that defied the heavens!
Unfortunately, by now, only the village's upper echelon possessed this technique (left by the Second Hokage), while the Uchiha themselves were unaware of it.
It was almost comical.
Naturally, Uchiha Madara mastered this ultimate genjutsu, and he had just used it to reverse the reality of being shattered by a single strike.
Being able to kill Uchiha Madara once was a feat Hyuga Cangyue could be proud of.
Even if it meant beating up a 'disabled old man.'
"You two brats have indeed given me a pleasant surprise, but the game ends here!"
Even after being killed once, Uchiha Madara's tone remained arrogantly.
As he spoke.
Whoosh!
A transparent blue giant rose, centered around him.
Susanoo!
But this time, it was a complete giant, not just a half-body.
The giant's hands formed hand seals, and a chakra cloak resembling a heavenly curtain covered it, forming a Crow Tengu Armor.
Dozens, even hundreds of meters!
Yes, this blue Susanoo eventually reached a towering height of a hundred meters.
This god-like colossal figure could crush mountains, tear the sky, and shatter the earth.
No wonder Susanoo was known as 'Godly Power,' a fitting description indeed.
The oppressive force of the giant was overwhelming.
In the ninja world, being small didn't necessarily mean weakness, but being large undoubtedly indicated strength.
It was almost a law.
