Chapter 349

Four deep gray iron rods instantly struck Uchiha Madara’s Rinnegan: Rinne Tensei.

Almost in an instant.

Madara’s four lightning-fast shadow clones from the Rinne Tensei began disintegrating rapidly, starting at the molecular level.

Seeing this, Uchiha Jin’s expression remained unchanged.

Kōsatsu Kotsu Sai!

In the original story, this was a power exclusive to the Six Paths tier—a true bloodline net that even Sasuke’s Susano’o under his Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan could not withstand.

Not to mention that even in his peak state, Uchiha Madara was at best a Super-Kage-level pinnacle, never even touching the shadow of Six Paths power.

In the original story.

Only when Madara fully became the Ten-Tails’ jinchuriki did he truly enter the weakest Six Paths tier!

But now?

Uchiha Madara hadn’t even been fully revived; his eye sockets held only a phantom of the Rinnegan. In this state, Madara might easily obliterate others, but it was useless against Uchiha Jin—who had also awakened the Rinnegan!

After all, Jin hadn’t just awakened the Rinnegan; his bloodline had been optimized by the Hongmeng Tower, following the direct path of the Otsutsuki main house.

Even with only 60% bloodline concentration, though he wasn’t certain if he could reach Hagoromo or Hamura’s level, he was unquestionably stronger than Asura and Indra—the third-generation Otsutsuki.

Uchiha Madara?

He’s no longer even a match for me!

Perhaps against other Otsutsuki, Madara might still use technique to find their weaknesses.

But, unfortunately.

Uchiha Jin was forged in the crucible of the ninja world; his combat skills were no weaker than Madara’s.

“How is this possible?”

Seeing his four shadows instantly destroyed, even Uchiha Madara trembled, then without hesitation activated his Rinnegan again.

“Tenpen Chinku!”

Immediately after.

Everyone suddenly felt the sky darken, then looked up to see a meteor larger than Konoha plummeting straight toward their heads.

“Damn it, how is this possible?”

“The Rinnegan’s power is too strong—how can it summon a meteor this big?”

“Trust Jin-kun—he’ll handle it!”

“...”

Everyone present was stunned.

Even the Senju brothers looked horrified; even Hashirama didn’t believe he could stop this with his Thousand-Foot Buddha.

Tobirama, though he could use Flying Thunder God, had no confidence he could teleport this meteor away.

It was just too massive!

As everyone stared in shock, Uchiha Jin suddenly vanished from the scene—Tobirama didn’t sense even a trace of Flying Thunder God chakra.

The next second.

Uchiha Jin placed his hand on the meteor, a faint smile on his lips.

“Yomi Hirasaka!”

Whoosh!

The entire meteor vanished, transported into Kaguya’s Six Spaces of Tenchi no Mato.

“No!”

“I don’t believe it!”

“We both have the Rinnegan—why are Itachi so strong?”

Uchiha Madara could not accept it.

He immediately exited the Rinnegan state and activated the Complete Body Susano’o.

But, unfortunately.

Uchiha Jin casually struck with “Kōsatsu Kotsu Sai,” effortlessly shattering Madara’s Susano’o, then used Yomi Hirasaka again to teleport directly beside Madara.

Though Madara reacted quickly, Uchiha Jin had no intention of fighting—he simply grabbed him and dragged him into the Six Spaces of Tenchi no Mato.

“Where is this place?”

“The Ice and Snow Space.”

Facing the bewildered Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Jin’s face retained its faint smile, even taking the time to explain: “Think of this as a separate dimension. Madara, stay here for now.”

“I’ll deal with Black Zetsu first. I’ll return to handle your issues later.”

After speaking.

Uchiha Jin immediately left the Tenchi no Mato world and appeared beside the stunned Black Zetsu.

“Come here, little treasure!”

He grabbed Black Zetsu before he could resist and dragged him into the Ice and Snow Space.

“Damn it, what is this place?”

Upon arriving in the Ice and Snow Space, Black Zetsu was utterly bewildered and instinctively tried to merge with the ground to escape.

But soon…

He realized this wasn’t the ninja world—and his entire body froze in shock.

“Black Zetsu, give up!”

“This isn’t the ninja world—it’s just the Ice and Snow Space within your mother Kaguya’s Tenchi no Mato.”

“Now that Kaguya is sealed, she can’t use Tenchi no Mato, so she won’t release Itachi.”

“So, just stay put.”

“Go ahead and have a nice long chat with Madara about your plans to rip out his heart.”

After speaking.

Without understanding Black Zetsu’s confused, bewildered, and despairing expression, Uchiha Jin immediately left the Ice and Snow Space.

But, unfortunately.

Just as Uchiha Jin prepared to casually capture Obito, he discovered the boy had already fled upon sensing the danger.

“Hokage-sama, are Itachi alright?”

“Where did Madara and that black thing go?”

“Is it over?”

Those present stepped forward, asking in unison.

Clearly.

They desperately wanted to know the final outcome of this battle.

And regarding this.

Uchiha Jin offered no concealment, speaking calmly: “Madara and Black Zetsu have been sealed in a separate dimension. They cannot return to the ninja world unless I choose to release them.”

“So, rest easy.”

“Now only Obito remains—but he’s just a minor pawn. I’ll deal with him when I have time.”

“By the way, Minato.”

“I remember Itachi placed a Flying Thunder God seal on Obito. Can Itachi still sense his current location?”

Hearing Uchiha Jin’s words, everyone finally exhaled in relief.

There was no help for it!

Uchiha Madara’s pressure had been overwhelming.

And regarding this.

Uchiha Jin could only apologize—he was now too strong; Madara could no longer exert any pressure on him.

Not getting to see Madara properly unleash his power was a bit regrettable, honestly.

At this, Minato first sensed carefully, found no trace of the Flying Thunder God seal on Obito, then immediately activated the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode.

After a moment, he opened his eyes: “I sense him—Obito is in the Land of Snow.”

“As long as Itachi can sense him, I’ll deal with Obito when I have time,” Uchiha Jin nodded.

Afterwards.

He briefly summarized the situation, then led everyone slowly back toward Konoha.

Along the way.

He gave everyone a general overview of his current power level—after all, for the long-term peace of the ninja world, he needed to reassure them.

The result proved highly effective!

Those who had feared powerful enemies now fully released their anxieties upon learning Uchiha Jin’s strength.

Even those like Ōnoki, who had once entertained secret thoughts of fleeing, now completely abandoned them.
