Chapter 310: A White and Complete Susanoo

Wind.

Suddenly it arose.

Uchiha Madara charged forward, waving his ninja sword!

The man in red armor moved as swiftly as a hurricane, poised to destroy the approaching Akihara Kagura in an instant!

Akihara Kagura raised his sword to meet him!

In the next moment!

The two ninja swords clashed!

The flashing blades moved so fast it was hard to see their forms clearly!

In the Warring States period, ninjas lived for training and war, mastering the swiftest and most precise ways to kill and exploit the enemy's weaknesses for a fatal blow. These skills seemed ingrained in their very bones, and among them, Uchiha Madara, who ruled the Uchiha clan, was a standout!

After obtaining Wood Release, Akihara Kagura trained relentlessly in taijutsu for over a decade! Coupled with the sword techniques he acquired from Orochimaru and the powerful battle experiences excavated from the First Hokage Senju Hashirama, it was only natural that Uchiha Madara's eyes began to show signs of excitement!

Clang, clang…

The continuous clash of metal rang out! Uchiha Madara's sword moved like a dragon, sometimes nimble and sometimes heavy, pressing forward step by step, attempting to push Akihara Kagura back!

However…

Akihara Kagura always managed to block his attacks!

Both Akihara Kagura and Uchiha Madara's eyes had transformed back into Sharingan, enabling them to better capture each other's movements in this evenly matched taijutsu battle, minimizing any lapse in judgment!

Only in this way…

Could they identify their opponent's weaknesses!

Only in this way…

Could they minimize their own vulnerabilities!

Any slight mistake…

Could result in a decisive strike from the opponent!

Uchiha Madara felt a familiar sense of thrill. Watching Akihara Kagura in battle was like seeing a Sharingan-wielding Senju Hashirama!

Uchiha Madara swung his sword at Akihara Kagura's neck, his blood stirred by the heat of battle!

Akihara Kagura raised his sword to block!

Crack!

Both swords broke simultaneously. The standardized equipment of the ANBU and Root could not withstand their combined power!

Uchiha Madara let go of his broken sword and reached directly for Akihara Kagura's neck, his battle spirit surging even more!

Bang!

Akihara Kagura knocked his arm aside and kicked Uchiha Madara hard in the chest, sending both of them flying!

The sheer force was unstoppable!

Blood spurted from Uchiha Madara's mouth!

Yet his face showed even more excitement, and the madness in his eyes grew more terrifying, his voice becoming more fervent!

"Kid...that's it!"

"This is what a battle should be!"

"Not some child's play!"

"This kind of battle, like in our era, where anyone can lose their life at any moment, where every fight is a gamble with one's life!"

Uchiha Madara's fingers quickly formed two seals, and he spewed a massive wave of fire: "Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"

"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"

Akihara Kagura also unleashed a massive wave of fire!

The intensity and scale of Akihara Kagura's flames surpassed even Uchiha Madara's, and the two fire waves collided and intertwined instantly!

"Retreat to the sides!"

The Konoha ninjas quickly withdrew!

The range and power of Uchiha Madara and Akihara Kagura's fire techniques were too great!

They couldn't participate, and even getting slightly caught in the flames could result in death!

"Too... too terrifying..."

Inuzuka Kiba and his ninja dog shivered at the sight.

"This level of fire technique..."

Hatake Kakashi's eyes were frozen in astonishment.

"Sasuke, are you alright?"

Naruto Uzumaki paid no attention to the battlefield, instead, he looked worriedly at a despondent Uchiha Sasuke: "Sasuke, are you alright?"

"I'm fine..."

Uchiha Sasuke touched his eye sockets.

The pain of having to leave his clan still spread through Uchiha Sasuke's mind, but the Mangekyo Sharingan in his eyes made him feel unprecedented power.

"Speaking of which..."

An ANBU ninja glanced at the ROOT ninjas standing in the distance and whispered, "Should we attack those ROOT ninjas? They are accomplices of Akihara Kagura, and Lady Tsunade's order is to eliminate those traitors without mercy..."

"!!!"

Uchiha Sasuke's eyes suddenly tightened!

Although he was no longer a ROOT ninja, the surviving Uchiha in ROOT were his clansmen, victims of his brother Uchiha Itachi's blade!

What should I do?

Should I kill those former clansmen like my brother Uchiha Itachi? A pang of sorrow suddenly arose in Sasuke's heart; he did not want to do such a thing.

Then...

Should I defect like those clansmen?

In what capacity could I join them now? I was expelled from ROOT for questioning Akihara Kagura, and those clansmen's relatives died because of me...

Return to Konoha?

If I stay in Konoha, I will have to fight against my defected clansmen, and the relationship between the Uchiha and Konoha's higher-ups is delicate...

According to Uchiha Obito, if the Uchiha clan wanted to stage a coup, Uchiha Itachi protected me by killing the other clansmen through a deal, so can I, a descendant of a coup plotter, really stay in Konoha?

If ROOT still existed...

This thought suddenly appeared in Uchiha Sasuke's mind.

ROOT...

Was my home.

The only home where I could still find solace...

But now I've lost a home once again!

As Uchiha Sasuke was lost in thought, he heard his teacher Hatake Kakashi say, "Those from ROOT are not our concern..."

Hatake Kakashi looked at Haruno Sakura helping to treat Uchiha Obito and said, "Kagura is the root of all this. Even if we deal with those people, we can't resolve Kagura's plans, which are our biggest problem..."

"But..."

Sarutobi Asuma looked at the intense heat wave in the distance and murmured, "This level of ninjutsu... this level of battle..."

It doesn't seem like something we can participate in!

Sarutobi Asuma, from the Sarutobi clan and highly skilled in Fire Release ninjutsu, felt that the firepower of these two was ridiculously overwhelming!

"Hahahaha..."

Uchiha Madara, seeing his Fire Release being suppressed by Akihara Kagura's Fire Release, showed no sign of retreat and even laughed more arrogantly: "Boy, I always thought I was the strongest Fire Release ninja, but now I see a ninja who can suppress me..."

"Truly worthy of the Uchiha bloodline..."

"You're just like another Hashirama, but skilled in Fire Release!"

"Among Fire Release ninjas..."

"I, Madara, am willing to call you the strongest!"

Uchiha Madara, facing the rolling waves of fire, showed no fear and did not hesitate to express his admiration for this young side-branch member!

In the next moment!

Uchiha Madara's eyes seemed to grow more frenzied, but his mind became increasingly clear in analyzing the battle. Suddenly, his body was enveloped by the half-body Susanoo!

The second form of Susanoo raised its blue ninja blade and slashed directly at the approaching wave of fire, splitting the flames in an instant!

In the next second!

Another pair of arms grew from Susanoo's back, each holding a blue-glowing ninja blade, slashing towards Akihara Kagura!

A vine grabbed Susanoo's arm!

Akihara Kagura's chakra surged as he swung his fist, landing a punch on Susanoo's ninja blade, causing a clear crack!

Crack!

Susanoo's ninja blade shattered with a single punch!

"A strength rivaling Hashirama's..."

Uchiha Madara's lips curled into a satisfied smile, but his hands did not falter, and Susanoo's remaining arms were raised simultaneously!

One after another, Yasaka Magatama appeared in Susanoo's arms, being thrown continuously at Akihara Kagura on the ground, relentlessly pursuing him!

This is the ranged capability of the second form of Susanoo!

Each Magatama has immense destructive power!

Other Uchiha might only be able to control a single magatama in this form, but Uchiha Madara could easily manipulate several magatama for attacks, mastering each form of Susanoo to the fullest during the Warring States period!

"Earth Release: Earth-Style Rampart!"

Akihara Kagura raised his palm and slammed it heavily onto the ground!

A colossal wall, as tall as a mountain, rose from the earth!

Compared to the Earth Release techniques of Hatake Kakashi and Sarutobi Hiruzen, Akihara Kagura's Earth Release was like an immovable mountain cliff!

Boom! Boom!

Huge explosions echoed continuously!

However, the numerous Yasaka Magatama could not penetrate the defense of the Earth Flow Rampart!

In the next moment, Uchiha Madara controlled Susanoo to rise once again, its height surpassing the cliff created by Akihara Kagura!

"The warm-up ends here!"

The Susanoo on Uchiha Madara grew taller and taller.

The towering blue Susanoo opened its scarlet eyes, directly entering its complete form. The chakra transformed into armor that instantly covered its body, and two giant samurai swords appeared on either side, while massive blue wings grew from its back!

This is Susanoo!

The ultimate power of the Uchiha clan!

Its mere appearance instilled fear in everyone!

Even though many had seen Uchiha Madara's Susanoo before, seeing it again still filled their hearts with dread!

However...

No one believed that Akihara Kagura would lose to Uchiha Madara!

Everyone knew that Akihara Kagura possessed techniques capable of opposing Susanoo!

"You brat..."

Standing within the crystal on Susanoo's forehead, Uchiha Madara smiled slightly, slowly controlling Susanoo to grasp one of the giant samurai swords.

With a single slash!

The mountain-like Earth Flow Rampart was split open!

The slash even swept far into the distance, forcefully dividing a forest in half, and a nearby small mountain was also cleaved apart by the fierce strike!

This is the terror of the complete Susanoo!

Akihara Kagura stood motionless, seemingly indifferent to the immense power of the slash, calmly looking up at the towering complete Susanoo.

"I thought you would want to play a bit longer..."

Akihara Kagura spread his hands, slowly shaking his head and sighing, "Are we going to enter a Susanoo-level battle so soon?"

"For us, these battles are insignificant..."

Standing within the crystal on Susanoo's head, Uchiha Madara sneered, "These minor skirmishes are just child's play, just enough to warm up..."

"..."

The other ninjas present broke into a cold sweat.

Whether it was the taijutsu clash or the ninjutsu duel between Uchiha Madara and Akihara Kagura, any slight mistake could result in death. Even participating might mean not surviving for more than a few seconds...

However...

For them...

"That level of combat..."

"Is just a warm-up?"

Hatake Kakashi's eyes showed unease, a touch of panic rising in his heart, feeling his own powerlessness.

"Now..."

"Let's start the real battle!"

Uchiha Madara's eyes narrowed, his arms crossed over his chest, looking down at the tiny Akihara Kagura on the ground: "If I'm not mistaken, you, who even Hashirama admired, must have learned techniques capable of countering Susanoo..."

"You won't be disappointed."

Akihara Kagura slowly closed his eyes.

When he opened them again, a layer of white appeared around his body, and Susanoo's skeleton rapidly formed around him!

With the added power of the Rinnegan and Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, Akihara Kagura's Susanoo continued to evolve, easily reaching its complete form!

A hundred-meter-tall white Susanoo rose from the ground!

This Susanoo's body was as pure as moonlight, with chakra flowing like silver moonlight, instantly growing to its complete form!

The surging chakra formed a silver-white armor, slowly covering the white Susanoo's body. Like all complete Susanoo, white wings grew from its back!

And like all complete Susanoo weapons...

A resplendent white samurai sword appeared in the hand of the white Susanoo!
