Chapter 210: Mission Complete, A New Era Begins

Madara's figure stumbled out from the Space Rift, and the sight before him made him narrow his eyes slightly.

Kaguya was pinned to the ground by several massive Shinmon, covered all over with various sealing runes that locked her chakra, leaving her unable to move.

"Madara," Hashirama's voice suddenly rang out.

Madara turned to look, seeing Hashirama Senju and the others standing not far away.

Their eyes were all wary, bodies tense, ready to strike at any moment.

"It's been a long time, Hashirama." Madara curled the corner of his mouth into an arc, his voice somewhat hoarse, "I didn't expect to reunite under such circumstances."

Hashirama did not answer immediately, but carefully assessed Madara's current state; at this moment Madara's aura was weak, clearly having suffered heavy injuries.

"Give it up, don't be stubborn anymore. Even if you obtain Kaguya's power, you will only end up repeating her mistakes in the end," Hashirama said in a deep voice,

"Hah." Madara let out a cold laugh: "Hashirama, you should know better than anyone that I'm not someone who gives up easily."

Madara's gaze swept past Hashirama and landed on the sealed Kaguya.

"However, I don't have time to chat with you now."

Voice Not Fall, Madara's figure suddenly turned into a Body Flicker, rushing straight at Kaguya.

"Stop him!" Hashirama's eyes narrowed, his hands pressed together, chakra surging in his palm.

"Boom—!"

Suddenly a huge sound came from the sky, the thick clouds were torn open, revealing several massive Torii Seals crashing down toward Madara.

"Sage Art: Shinmon!" Hashirama roared.

"Bang!"

The Shinmon slammed heavily onto Madara's back, his body falling like a meteor, smashing a huge crater into the ground, rocks flying, dust filling the air.

Hashirama did not stop; more Shinmon descended from the sky one after another.

One Torii Seal after another stacked layer upon layer, and in the blink of an eye they piled up into a small mountain on Madara, pressing him firmly into the ground.

Before the dust settled, a cold snort came from under the Shinmon: "Hashirama, have you forgotten"

Madara's voice carried a hint of mockery: "An attack of this level can't stop me at all!"

Madara's right fist suddenly shot out, the power of the Gura Gura no Mi surging at the fist's edge.

"Boom!"

The fist slammed heavily onto the lowest Shinmon. The massive Torii Seal shattered instantly, scattering into countless fragments in the air.

At This Moment, a yellow flash lit up on Madara's left, and Minato Namikaze's figure suddenly appeared. At the same time, space twisted on the right, and Tobirama's figure appeared like lightning.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Naruto's voice rang out from the other side.

Dozens of golden figures appeared instantly, each Shadow Clone condensing a Rasengan in hand.

In the far distance, Sasuke's Susanoo instantly shot out a long sword, black Amaterasu flames entangling the arrow, emitting a "hiss hiss" burning sound.

Attacks from all directions arrived in an instant, sealing off all of Madara's retreat, yet the corner of Madara's mouth curled into a disdainful cold smile.

"Too slow!"

Madara gave a low shout, his right hand suddenly swung out, the power of the Gura Gura no Mi erupting instantly.

"Eighty Gods Space Quake!"

"Boom!"

The air froze instantly, a visible-to-the-naked-eye ripple of vibration spread from him as center. A visible-to-the-naked-eye shockwave swept out, all attacks were completely smashed by this terrifying force.

All the Shadow Clones were instantly shaken apart, vanishing into white smoke; Minato and Tobirama's figures tumbled in the air wave, slamming heavily onto the ground.

Madara's gaze shifted, his right hand raised.

Black rods surged from his palm, splitting instantly in the air. A Break Sky sound rang out, dozens of spikes shot out like arrows leaving the bow.

"Not good!" Hashirama wanted to form Hand Seals, but it was already too late.

"Pfft pfft pfft!"

Amidst sharp sounds, the Black Receivers precisely pierced into several people's bodies, the huge force directly pinning them to the ground.

Strong chakra surged into their bodies, sealing their movements.

"Ugh!"

Naruto braced his hands on the ground, muscles all over his body tense, desperately trying to Stand Up, but the force from the Black Receivers left him unable to move.

Madara's figure flickered, instantly appearing before Kaguya, extending his right hand, his palm pressed against Kaguya's forehead; Kaguya's eyes widened sharply, her body trembling violently.

"Boom!"

A terrifying Chakra Fluctuation erupted, the Shinmon crumbling inch by inch. God Tree roots appeared behind Madara, Entangling Kaguya.

But at this moment Madara did not choose to directly absorb Kaguya; instead, he tapped his foot once, his figure soaring into the sky, landing on the Divine Tree: Heavenly Descent.

Then Madara raised both hands, immediately forming Hand Seals.

"Boom——!"

The Earth quaked, countless chakra like threads gathered from all directions, pouring into Madara's body.

These were chakra previously absorbed by the God Tree but not yet having time to enter Kaguya's body.

Madara stood motionless on the God Tree's main trunk, as if waiting for something; chakra continuously surged into his body, and his aura gradually Resumed.

"Swish!"

A Golden Light sliced across the long sky, the Sage of Six Paths's figure appeared out of thin air, his expression somewhat solemn, obviously also sensing that something was wrong. "Finally reacted?" Madara looked up at the Sage of Six Paths, his voice carrying a hint of mockery, "But it's already too late."

At this moment the Sage of Six Paths looked at Madara Uchiha: "I didn't expect to actually let you escape through the God Tree's roots."

"I said, this world needs a true ending." Madara's voice suddenly turned cold: "You people, only because of so-called kindness and mercy, let this absurd cycle of reincarnation continue endlessly."

"Even if you absorb these chakra," the Sage of Six Paths slowly raised the Amenonuhoko, "with your current state, you cannot possibly be my opponent."

"It seems you still don't understand the seriousness of the situation." A Cold Light flashed in Madara's eyes, both hands rapidly forming Hand Seals.

"Boom——!"

The Tree Release: Deep Forest Emergence covering the globe suddenly tightened, countless branches constricting simultaneously, the "Cocoons" above wrapped layer upon layer. "Stop!" The Sage of Six Paths hovered in midair, gaze grave as he looked down at Madara.

"You're right, I am indeed weak." Madara smiled coldly, exerting slight force, the branches' pressure increasing once more.

"But even so, I can end these people's lives in an instant. Are you sure you want to gamble? Whether my movement is faster, or you can save everyone before me?"

The Sage of Six Paths' Face Gloomy to a terrifying degree.

He naturally understood Madara spoke the truth; even if he could save a portion, the vast majority would inevitably die at Madara's hands.

"Madara! Do you know what you're doing?!" At this moment Hashirama, pinned to the Ground, shouted angrily, "These are all innocent people!"

"Innocent?" Madara snorted coldly: "We are ninja! Unscrupulous means for the sake of the goal is the ninja's way of survival!"

He looked down at Hashirama below: "Just like you back then, for the sake of the Village, you unhesitatingly killed me."

The Sage of Six Paths quietly watched all this, the Amenonuhoko in his hand trembling slightly.

After a moment, he sighed lightly, the Amenonuhoko turning into specks of starlight and Dissipating.

"Perhaps, you are right," the Sage of Six Paths' voice carried deep weariness, "I indeed should not interfere in Ninja World affairs."

"Wait." Madara's voice suddenly rang out, "Your Six Paths Power and Rinnegan, leave them behind."

The Sage of Six Paths turned to look at Madara, gaze profound: "How do you intend to use them?"

"Heh," Madara chuckled lightly: "Didn't you say you shouldn't interfere in the Ninja World? In that case, these powers hold no meaning for you either."

Silent for a moment, the Sage of Six Paths nodded, golden light surging from within him, condensing into two Light Spheres floating in the air.

Simultaneously, the Rinnegan atop his head slowly floated toward Madara.

"I hope you do not let this world repeat past mistakes." With those words, the Sage of Six Paths' figure gradually became Transparent, finally Fading away.

Madara slowly raised both hands forming Hand Seals, his Palm emitting a faint glow.

"Unseal!"

The moon shrouding the sky returned to its usual appearance, the Cocoon shells on the Tree Release: Deep Forest Emergence shattered one after another, people awakening from slumber.

"Where is this." Someone blankly looked around.

"What happened." More people stood up, expressions dazed.

At This Moment, a voice like thunder exploded in everyone's mind: "Listen!" Madara's voice suddenly resounded in everyone's mind, "From today, Konoha, Sunagakure, Iwagakure, Kirigakure, Kumogakure, these will all become history! The land you live on will no longer have national borders!"

"Too many wars, too much hatred, too many meaningless sacrifices. This land has already flowed with too much blood, it is time to put an end to it."

Madara's voice carried undeniable majesty: "Division brings war, unification brings peace. From now on, you have only one choice — submit to the new order."

"Anyone who attempts to divide this Country will be ruthlessly eliminated. This is not a Threat, but a rule."

"You may also choose to resist, the Consequence of the choice will be borne by you yourselves."

The air seemed to Freeze, everyone able to feel that invisible pressure.

As the voice fell, Madara turned toward the sealed Kaguya, his right hand pressing on Kaguya's forehead, the God Tree's roots instantly Entangling upward.

"Boom!"

Vast chakra surged from Kaguya's body, continuously pouring into Madara's body. Kaguya's body began to turn illusory, finally turning into specks of light and Dissipating.

At this moment, a cold voice rang out in Madara's mind:

【Main Quest completed. Return immediately?】

Madara did not answer immediately. He sensed something, gaze falling on those scattered points of light.

At this moment, a figure emerged from the Dissipating light.

"Mmph!"

A muffled groan sounded, it was precisely this world's Uchiha Madara, at this moment he was exceptionally weak, aura so faint it was almost imperceptible.

"This is." This world's Uchiha Madara looked at the figure identical to himself before him, eyes full of Shock.

Madara did not speak, raised a hand and pointed. Six Paths Power like a trickling stream poured into his body.

This world's Madara only felt a Warm power surge through his whole body, shattered cells beginning to reorganize, power reviving within him.

Then, Madara pointed a finger at his forehead. Countless pieces of information flooded his mind, this world's Madara immediately understood what had happened.

"Since you understand everything, I believe you also know what to do." Madara spoke coldly.

This world's Madara slowly Stood Up, a flash of realization in his eyes, then lightly nodded: "No need for more words."

"Return." Madara said softly in his heart, the next instant, his figure Dissipated like foam.

This world's Uchiha Madara looked at the vanished Madara in silence for a moment.

Then slowly turned to look at the ninja slowly Walking out below, Six Paths Staff manifesting in hand, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "Then, the new era begins now."
