Chapter 503: Can't beat him, time to take drugs

Jigen floated slowly from the sky to Uchiha Madara, his whole body wrapped in mysterious aura, his deep eyes carrying a faint anger.

After finally cultivating a few "vessels," they were all ruined by Uchiha Madara in the blink of an eye. If he didn't let this Kaguya descendant suffer a bit, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to sleep soundly tonight.

"I am..."

"It's you, you loser!"

"???"

Before Jigen could give himself a self-introduction full of status, Uchiha Madara, who was frowning, suddenly brightened his eyes. The Hullbreaker in his hand was raised high, his face full of surprise.

"It was you who abducted Hashirama, hurry up and hand him over!"

Due to sharing information with Senju Tobirama, Uchiha Madara remembered Jigen, who had major criminal suspicions, vividly, and had long ago imprinted the other's characteristics firmly in his mind.

Now that this suspect had appeared on his own, how could he not be excited?

"Vulgar."

Jigen, who was interrupted, looked displeased. He didn't respond to Uchiha Madara's questioning for the first time, but turned his head and nodded slightly toward Clone No. 9.

"Hurry up."

"Yes!"

No. 9 nodded busily and fled without any hesitation, running toward Senju Tobirama's direction.

"Damn it! Treating me like air?"

Looking at Jigen, who treated him like air, Uchiha Madara instantly became angry. His legs stomped violently, and his whole person turned into an afterimage and disappeared from the spot.

*Whoosh! *

Relying on the bonus of his physical body, Uchiha Madara successfully entered high-speed movement mode.

In just one breath, he had already flashed in front of Jigen. His arm muscles bulged high, and the Black Cleaver in his hand slashed down heavily. The axe blade, flashing with a chilling light, still had undried blood on it.

"Ignorant."

Facing the sharp gale, a faint mockery appeared on Jigen's face. The moment the giant axe was about to fall on his head, a flash of black light flashed in his eyes.

*BOOM!!! *

The giant axe fell, and the place where Jigen stood was split into a bottomless, terrifying wound. But Uchiha Madara, who sensed that the feeling was wrong, frowned first, his scarlet eyes full of confusion.

The attack missed.

His Sharingan hadn't been closed for a moment, but he hadn't discovered how Jigen had dodged his sharp strike.

*Whoosh~*

The moment he was frowning and thinking, several black shadows shot toward his back. Uchiha Madara felt something and immediately raised the axe face of the Black Cleaver to defend.

*Clang! Clang-clang! *

A piercing metallic ringing sound rang out. Uchiha Madara was actually forced back repeatedly by the unknown attack, and the arm holding the Black Cleaver felt slightly numb.

Looking down, he saw a trace of cracks on the indestructible axe face, and the culprit who caused all this was actually a few black short sticks that looked ordinary.

*Whoosh~*

Before Uchiha Madara could react, the black sticks that fell to the ground seemed to have life, floating up on their own, and finally returned to Jigen's hand, who appeared at some unknown time.

"How did you dodge my attack just now?"

Uchiha Madara didn't act rashly this time. His vigilant gaze carried a trace of confusion. The opponent's ability to appear and disappear was too unbelievable, and even the Sharingan, known for being able to see through everything, couldn't crack it.

"Naive."

Jigen still didn't reply, and on his own, he combined the several short sticks in his hand. The black sticks merged rapidly, finally turning into a long black rod. Skillfully playing with a few stick flowers, he mocked faintly.

"Yo-ho, look at this violent temper of mine!"

When had Uchiha Madara ever suffered such provocation? He immediately swung the Hullbreaker and repeated the same trick, the sharp attack almost tearing the space apart.

But the result disappointed him greatly. Every time he attacked, the strange monk in front of him could magically disappear for an instant, and then suddenly appear, whipping him with the long black rod in his hand.

*Snap! Snap! Snap! *

Although Uchiha Madara's physical strength was outstanding at the moment and ordinary attacks couldn't cause him damage, the black rod in the monk's hand was different. Every time it hit his body, it would cause no small amount of damage.

It was not only the invasion of pain but also the strange ability to affect his chakra flow rate.

"Space ninjutsu?"

Uchiha Madara, who was knocked back by the black rod again, didn't attack rashly. The opponent's fighting style gave him a sense of déjà vu, having the same effect as a certain white-haired guy's skill.

"Really like a fly."

In the gap of Uchiha Madara's complaining, Jigen lowered his eyelids and looked at his slightly trembling hands without a trace, his eyes carrying a faint horror.

What is wrong with this human? He is actually tougher than that guy Kinshiki.

He originally thought about taking down Uchiha Madara in a few moves and going back to continue tasting red wine, but he didn't expect that the attacks he made in coordination with Sukunahikona were basically ineffective. The chakra rods were almost smoking, but he hadn't even broken the opponent's defense.

"Since that's the case..."

Jigen's gaze condensed. His current strength was indeed not strong enough. If he wanted to take down Uchiha Madara quickly, he could only open the Karma form.

Thinking of this, Jigen didn't dawdle and immediately opened the Karma form. The black mark on his chin spread rapidly to his whole body, and the source power of the Otsutsuki was successfully activated.

"State One."

"That is?"

Uchiha Madara looked vigilantly at Jigen, who had entered State One. From the perspective of his Sharingan, the power in the opponent's body was actually growing exponentially, already approaching a level that could threaten him.

*Whoosh! *

Adhering to the principle of "striking first," Uchiha Madara seized the gap of Jigen's transformation, and the Hullbreaker in his hand fell heavily.

Is it great to have a tattoo?

My cousin also has one!

*Clang! *

But it was a pity that this attack was easily blocked by Jigen, who raised the chakra rod with one hand.

"How is that possible?!"

Feeling Jigen's strong brute force, Uchiha Madara looked at the Hullbreaker that was slowly being raised in disbelief.

"Go back!"

After a brief daze, he immediately poured the power in his body into his arms, which delayed the progress of the opponent's lifting.

Jigen frowned slightly. He didn't expect Uchiha Madara to still have spare power, so he could only solve the opponent in one breath.

"State Two."

The terrifying giant force below increased exponentially again. Uchiha Madara's hands began to tremble uncontrollably. What was the origin of this monk? His power was so strong; he was definitely not some ordinary person.

Jigen, who had grown horns on his head, had now awakened more than half of his peak strength. For him, there should be no more rivals on this planet.

"Are you ready to die?"

Jigen didn't answer the question. Uchiha Madara was instantly stunned. You say you play with tattoos, that's fine, but why are you doing physical modification?

"Are you ready to die?"

Jigen didn't answer the question, and the black rod in his hand instantly extended, stabbing heavily into Uchiha Madara's chest.

*Thud! *

This force directly knocked him back a few steps. Blood surged in his chest, and he almost couldn't catch his breath.

After stabilizing his figure, Uchiha Madara's face didn't show any timidity, but instead, his fighting spirit was high.

"This is interesting."

Only such an enemy was worthy of his all-out effort.

*Clang! *

Uchiha Madara, who leaped up, hammered at Jigen again. Jigen, who had entered State Two, gave up the idea of using Dojutsu to dodge. He also had great confidence in his own strength.

Just a native, isn't it easy to handle?

*Clang! Bang! Hi! *

Two figures crossed rapidly in the open space. From time to time, metallic ringing sounds rang out, and the collision of flesh and blood was endless.

"Enough!"

Uchiha Madara became more and more excited as he fought. He used his physical strength to the limit, and for a time, he was not at a disadvantage in the wrestling match with State Two.

"What should we do? Do we need to help?"

On the other side of the battlefield, No. 7, who had escaped death, had his wings regrown. He turned his head to look at No. 8, whose clothes were slightly dirty, and couldn't help but ask.

"I..."

"Help! Why not help! The advantage is with us!"

No. 8 blinked, hesitated for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, he was preempted by another voice.

"You guy, still have the face to come out?"

No. 7 and No. 8, hearing the familiar tone, immediately turned their heads. Looking at No. 1, who had sneaked to their side at some unknown time, they were instantly furious.

This guy who fled before the battle was not worthy of being a member of their alien knights.

"Cough cough cough... I was just feinting."

No. 1, hearing this, paused his figure, coughed a few times, and started to find an excuse for his behavior of fleeing before the battle, claiming that he was just "luring the enemy into the trap."

"You fart!"

No. 7 was furious. He had almost been cut in half by Uchiha Madara.

"Alright, No. 7, whatever grudges you have, talk about them later. Let's go help first."

Seeing the tense situation, No. 8 came out to be a peacemaker. After No. 1 and No. 7 glared at each other fiercely, they had nothing more to say.

"Do it!"

Seeing the two calm down, No. 8 revealed a satisfied smile, waved his hand, and the three figures rushed toward Uchiha Madara again.

"Tsk!"

Glancing at the three alien knights coming to help, Uchiha Madara's face turned iron-blue. He was originally evenly matched with the monk in front of him, but now the balance of the battle was about to be broken.

"Hoo..."

Jigen let out a long sigh of relief. His current state was actually not as good as imagined. After opening the Karma state twice in a row, this body was about to reach its limit.

After this incident was solved, he would change to a vessel first, otherwise, he definitely wouldn't be able to hold on until the fruit matured.

*Boom! *

Knowing that he couldn't continue to entangle with Jigen, Uchiha Madara raised his hand to deflect the black rod and retreated rapidly.

Just when everyone thought he was preparing to run away, Uchiha Madara did something that made people drop their jaws. He actually rushed toward the three clones.

"What does he want to do?"

No. 1, seeing Uchiha Madara's act of throwing himself into the net, had a face full of confusion.

But the next moment, his astonished expression froze on his face. There was no panic of being at a loss on Uchiha Madara's face, but instead, it was full of predatory killing intent.

"Bad!"

After his brain operated at high speed for a second, he guessed the opponent's purpose. His running feet stopped instantly.

Uchiha Madara wasn't running away; he wanted their lives.

No. 1's brain turned fast, but it didn't mean the other two clones were as smart as him. No. 7 was still waving its wings with joy, rushing to Uchiha Madara's front with the first place, completely unaware of the surging killing intent.

"Die!"

This time, it wasn't as lucky as last time. Greeting No. 7 was the giant hammer falling with a boom.

*Clang! *

Between life and death, it was too late for No. 7 to repent. It had to grit its teeth and raise the short blade in its hand, trying to block the opponent's terrifying strike.

*Crack~ Crack~*

Even No. 3, known for its defensive power, hadn't withstood Uchiha Madara's Hullbreaker; No. 7 had even less possibility. The thick short blade only lasted for a second before it started to crack and shatter.

*Boom! *

The power of the Hullbreaker was unstoppable. Not only did it shatter No. 7's companion weapon, but it also took the opportunity to smash through its thick chest armor, nailing it heavily into the ground.

Seeing that in just the blink of an eye, Uchiha Madara had killed No. 7 in seconds, Jigen widened his eyes in regret, regretting his carelessness, actually letting an excellent "vessel" be destroyed by the opponent's desperate counterattack.

*Clatter~*

Lifting the Hullbreaker, Uchiha Madara shook off the flesh and armor fragments stuck to the nail, his gaze falling on the bloody No. 7, only to find that the opponent's chest was still slightly heaving.

Holding the mentality of finishing him off, he was just about to send No. 7 on his way when Jigen's figure arrived. Uchiha Madara had to turn to dodge the black rod shooting over and backhanded the Black Cleaver in his hand.

*Whoosh~*

*Clang! *

Using the black rod to deflect the incoming Black Cleaver, Jigen was full of anger. Uchiha Madara didn't retreat, leaped up, held the Hullbreaker tightly with both hands, and attacked with thunderous momentum.

*Thud! *

The famous swordsmanship master Kenpachi Zaraki once said:

Two hands are stronger than one.

Uchiha Madara, wielding the Hullbreaker with both hands, had an attack intensity that was more than a notch fiercer than before.

"Damn it."

Jigen was actually a bit unable to parry, and used the ability of Sukunahikona to shrink himself again, thereby dodging the opponent's attack.

Seeing the opponent disappear again, Uchiha Madara immediately jumped away from the spot and killed toward No. 8, who was watching from the sidelines.

You are good at running, right?

I don't believe they can run either.

Fiercely raising the Hullbreaker to smash at No. 8, Uchiha Madara's face was full of pleasure. This was a strike he had poured all his strength into; even a Tailed Beast would have to be sent back to the furnace to be rebuilt on the spot.

From Jigen's performance, it was not difficult to analyze that these clones were crucial to him. Uchiha Madara naturally wouldn't let the enemy get what he wanted.

"Stop!"

Jigen saw this, and this wouldn't do. The vessel he had cultivated so hard couldn't be wasted like this. He immediately canceled the shrinking, his figure as fast as lightning, and before Uchiha Madara smashed No. 8, he flashed and blocked in front of the Hullbreaker.

*Boom! *

A violent explosion sounded. No. 8 was blown away by the shockwave and fell beside No. 1. Looking closely, the thick armor on its chest was shattered by the aftermath of the attack, revealing a bloody chest.

It is conceivable that the terrifying degree of this attack was definitely not something these clones could withstand.

The smoke and dust dissipated, and a large crater with a diameter of tens of meters appeared where the few people had just stood. Uchiha Madara knelt on one knee, his hands soaked with blood, sliding down the handle of the Hullbreaker.

And opposite him, Jigen, who had resisted this attack, was not having a good time either. The chakra rod in his hand had long been shattered into pieces, and blood kept seeping from his mouth, an unhealthy paleness appearing on his cold face.

Staggering to stand up, having just taken Uchiha Madara's full-power hammer, Jigen's body was on the verge of collapse.

For the current plan, only...

He turned his head, his cold gaze sweeping over the two clones standing at the edge of the battlefield. In the terrified expressions of the other party, it finally fell on No. 7, who was lying on the ground, breathing more than exhaling.

"Hoo... fortunately, barely refineable." (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 504 =====
