Chapter 247

Susanoo began to cover the Nine-Tails' body, draping a layer of armor over him!

Ishihara stood on Susanoo's forehead, arms crossed over his shoulders, looking down at Hashirama Senju from above.

"Beast's Difficulty!"

Hashirama Senju exhaled heavily, his expression turning grave.

He was not at his peak, but the Ishihara opposite him possessed power surpassing Madara's from back then!

A formidable foe!

But Hashirama Senju burst into loud laughter.

"Young man, it seems I underestimated you before, but if you think this can defeat me, you are thinking too simply!"

He clapped his hands fiercely in front of his body, pressed them together, and a terrifying chakra visible to the naked eye radiated from his entire body as he roared:

"Sage Mode!"

Buzz—

Terrifying natural energy surged from heaven and earth, crazily flooding into his body.

Sage Mode eye makeup appeared; Hashirama Senju entered Sage Mode in an instant!

"It's not over yet!"

"Sage Art: Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands!"

Boom!!!

Terrifying chakra erupted from Hashirama Senju's body, directly tearing the air and forming a terrifying shockwave.

Boom-boom-boom-boom!

A giant Buddha in the likeness of Kannon, hundreds of meters high, shot up into the sky; behind it, a thousand hands stacked like a Buddha wheel, reaching a thousand meters high!

The ground was crushed into fragments under the pressure, and countless huge rocks whistled as they scattered in all directions.

Hashirama Senju stood atop the giant Buddha's head, arms similarly crossed over his shoulders, looking down at Ishihara with a disdainful expression!

"Young man, do you still think you can defeat me now?"

Ishihara looked up at True Several Thousand Hands and couldn't help but grin.

"Truly an exaggerated height; it must be over a thousand meters!"

Susanoo was only three hundred meters high, but the True Several Thousand Hands opposite, with just the giant Buddha in front, was at least a hundred meters taller than him...

Plus the thousand hands longer than the main body, this height made Ishihara feel somewhat oppressed, and at the same time somewhat annoyed.

"But who said my Susanoo can only be this high!"

Height does not represent combat power!

After all, True Several Thousand Hands is powerful not just in size, but more importantly in those thousand-plus arms!

But Ishihara was just annoyed!

Susanoo clamped its two legs together.

Did he want the Nine-Tails because he coveted that pitiful combat power of the Nine-Tails?

Of course, to use it as a power bank!

After all, he could only cast Perfect Susanoo once in a short time; the second time would be quite strained.

With the Nine-Tails, it was different; it wasn't his own chakra, so he could squander it freely!

"Multi-Size Technique!"

Then came a low shout.

The Nine-Tails' chakra was crazily extracted.

Corresponding to this was the skyrocketing height of Susanoo!

In Hashirama Senju's shocked gaze, Susanoo's height skyrocketed, doubling!

Reaching six hundred meters!

Ishihara glanced with some surprise at the Nine-Tails he was riding.

No wonder it's the Nine-Tails; the chakra volume is indeed huge.

He thought that casting the Multi-Size Secret Technique on Susanoo would only increase the height by a hundred meters.

After all, Susanoo's volume was too large!

Who would have thought it would actually double!

The height had already surpassed the giant Buddha's main body.

Ishihara stood in Susanoo's forehead, looking down at the shocked Hashirama Senju, then glanced at True Several Thousand Hands' height and grinned.

"Still not enough!"

Hashirama Senju's pupils shrank sharply, his brows knitted tightly as he stared at Ishihara, his expression extremely grave.

"Could he possibly increase Susanoo's volume as well!"

In the next instant, his face changed drastically; his expression could no longer remain calm, his face full of horror.

He saw the Ishihara opposite him, arms crossed over his shoulders, gently utter four words.

"Heavenly Demon Tattoo!"

Buzz—

As Hashirama Senju revealed an expression of disbelief, in his perception.

Massive amounts of natural energy crazily flooded into Ishihara's body!

Not much less than the natural energy he himself absorbed!

But this was not important; what was important was.

"Sage Mode!"

Senju Hashirama's expression was incredibly grave.

No one knew better than him how terrifying the boost brought by Sage Mode was.

The most direct feeling was...

He raised his head to look ahead, gazing upward!

That colossal entity had grown even taller!

Taller than the True Several Thousand Hands!

Exceeding a thousand meters in height!

The terrifying pressure made Senju Hashirama's heart feel overwhelmingly suppressed!

This was a sensation he had never experienced before!

It was also a feeling Madara had never brought him!

He had actually fallen to a disadvantage!

It was simply unbelievable!

He was Senju Hashirama, the one who had defeated Uchiha Madara who had activated the Eternal Mangekyō!

Yet at this moment, he actually felt a heavy pressure from a junior!

Senju Hashirama felt his body tremble; it was not fear, but excitement!

At this moment, he was more excited than ever before; his fighting spirit boiled, and his hot blood surged like a tide.

He laughed loudly, "Hahaha, Ishihara, is it? I admit you are stronger than Madara! You are the strongest of all the people I have ever fought!"

"Come on, let us fight a satisfying battle!"
