Naruto: From Novice to Grave

Chapter 311 - Senior, if you don't go back soon, your eyes will be gone!

Chakra has weight.

The Susanoo body is formed from the condensation of the ultimate Yin attribute chakra. Each attack is not only an explosion of energy, but also a huge kinetic energy impact.

Facing Madara Uchiha's even more powerful strike than before, Higashino Makoto drew upon the abundant white natural energy within his chakra, forming a dense wall of fists in front of him.

He then gathered his strength and threw a punch forward. The dense energy fist was like an army following orders, charging rapidly wherever his fist pointed.

All the fists landed on Madara Susanoo's longsword.

"Boom~~"

The immense kinetic energy combined with the energy release triggered an instantaneous explosion in the air between the two sides, the energy release as bright as a nuclear explosion.

First, the light was dazzling, then the sound spread in all directions.

After briefly avoiding the overly bright light, everyone involuntarily looked up at the source of the sound.

On this day, the people of Konoha and the surrounding area were fortunate enough to witness two suns in the sky at the same time. The one closest to them was incredibly huge, even briefly obscuring the existence of the true sun, but unfortunately it disappeared after shining for only a short time.

The long sword of Susanoo shattered in the explosion. Instead of conjuring a new weapon, Madara relied on the protection of Susanoo and, like piloting a Gundam, directly passed through the center of the explosion to kill his way in.

The Higashino Shin who remained in Konoha was just an avatar. He could recover from the heavy blows he had taken. In order to hold out longer, he immediately used [Dharma Body Heaven and Earth] to fight back.

He also longed for battle, but since his strength entered the inhuman realm, it had been a long time since anyone could properly spar with him.

Pain was barely qualified as the Six Paths of Pain, but his power was too scattered. Furthermore, Nagato was not the original owner of the Rinnegan, so even if his body was healed, his physique was still a weakness, which limited the power of the Sage Eyes.

Currently, only the reanimated Madara in front of him can arouse his sufficient interest.

A chakra giant, roughly the same size as Madara's Susanoo, instantly took shape. Unlike the unified island-style Karasu Tengu image of the Uchiha clan's Susanoo, Higashino's chakra giant image was himself.

A third, unusual Susanoo appeared in the sky, and the second battle against the giants began.

Higashino Makoto and Madara collided and began a passionate brawl.

The chakra giant's size is so exaggerated that every move it makes is an energy burst that ordinary ninjas cannot imagine. There is no need for tactics or ninjutsu; it's all about who can defeat the other first.

The rumbling continued, and the energy scattered by the collision blew down from the sky like a gale, crushing a forest.

Today, the weather was clear and cloudless, but the thunder never stopped.

There was only one audience member present, Shisui. He did not leave because he believed in Higashino's true strength, even if this was just a clone.

He was very clear about the difference between [Dharma Body] and Susanoo. Although they both seem to be aggregates of chakra, Higashino Makoto mobilizes primordial natural energy, while Susanoo uses the user's own chakra.

Sure enough, after a short while of intense punches, Madara's Susanoo began to crack, its repair unable to keep up with the damage.

Even if the legendary Edo Tensei users have endless chakra, they still can't keep up with this kind of consumption.

There is no such thing as endless chakra; everything is finite. It's just that ordinary attacks can't push the limits of the Impure World Reincarnation.

Soon, before Madara's Susanoo could break, Higashino suddenly stopped his attack.

Clearly, in this battle, the resurrected Madara Uchiha has been temporarily defeated.

But instead of being disappointed, he was unusually excited. This old guy was, in essence, a complete battle maniac.

Their surname is Uchiha, and they belong to the warrior race of the ninja world.

"Higashino, really. I, Uchiha Madara, acknowledge your strength. I never expected you to also possess our clan's ultimate divine power."

"It's nothing more than the ultimate concentration of Yin-attribute chakra. As long as you have the strength, you can use it even without the Uchiha's eyes."

"Not bad, it seems you have a thorough understanding of chakra. No wonder you're worthy of continuing Hashirama's name. But why did you stop?"

Is it even necessary to continue fighting?

"Hahahaha!" Uchiha burst into maniacal laughter: "Junior, do you think this is all the power I have?"

The pattern on Edo Tensei's eyes changes, and Rinnegan's eye spots appear.

Shisui flew to Higashino Makoto's side, looking at those round eyes in surprise, and exclaimed, "Rinnegan? How is that possible?"

Is the ultimate evolution of the Sharingan the Rinnegan?

It can only be said that Sasuke was stubborn; during his time in this world, he didn't reveal everything.

Madara looked at Higashino Makoto with suspicion: "You don't seem surprised at all. It's as if you know a lot about me!"

"Well, more or less. I've also seen the stone tablet that the Uchiha clan passed down. The Sage of Six Paths said that only when Yin and Yang are united can one obtain the power of all things in the universe."

If you were once the ultimate Yin, then Lord Hashirama was the ultimate Yang, and I sensed Lord Hashirama's aura within you.

"The Rinnegan is the manifestation of the power of all things in the universe, isn't that right? Those eyes in the Akatsuki were actually something you deliberately kept."

Although Higashino Makoto has a god-like perspective on major events in the ninja world, he has indeed seen the stone tablet left by the Sage of Six Paths. His strength has reached the Yin-Yang Release level, so he doesn't need the Mangekyou Sharingan to see the stone tablet.

But what he saw was a modified version by Black Zetsu. As for what the original version was, no one knows. It was erased by the little black devil hundreds of years ago.

Madara didn't deny the existence of the Rinnegan; instead, he asked, "Is that so? And since you're not from the Uchiha clan, how much of it can you see?"

"All content."

"It seems you already know my plan. Now, you have two choices: follow me, or die here."

"Senior, have you forgotten that I am just a clone? If you destroy me, my main body will return very quickly."

You can't even beat my clone, so why do you think you can beat my main body just because you have the Rinnegan? Most importantly, you don't seem to have time to waste here, do you?

My main body is currently on the front lines, working with the five great ninja villages to wipe out the Akatsuki. Aren't you afraid something might happen to your eyes, causing the plan to fail? So, the choice is yours.

Madara weighed the options in his mind. The Rinnegan in his Edo Tensei body was merely a reflection of his abilities in his previous life. To complete his plan, he had to be resurrected and become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki using a living body.

"The so-called Five Kage are nothing but trifles in my eyes. It would be better to bring your true form back; you are the real obstacle to the plan."

Higashino Makoto smiled and shook his head: "Wrong, I am not an obstacle to your plan. You can ask Obito about that."

"If I wanted to cause trouble, I would have killed him long ago. The Akatsuki wouldn't have existed for that long, and you wouldn't have had the chance to come to the present world, understand? Senior?"

Madara didn't care about Obito's life or death, but was quite interested in the meaning behind Higashino's words: "Oh? Junior, it seems you've only inherited Hashirama's name, not his thoughts. Do you also want to see the perfect, peaceful world depicted in the stone tablet?"

"Pretty much. I also want to see if the Sage of Six Paths' method will work."

After hearing this, Ban restrained his fighting spirit, prioritizing the plan above all else.

Since Kurama is not in Konoha, he doesn't need to waste his time here.

No matter how powerful Higashino's true form is, Madara believes that as long as he is resurrected and becomes the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki, everything will be alright.

The enormous Susanoo slowly descended, disintegrating from its feet down, and Higashino Makoto and Shisui followed, landing on the ground.

Madara's Rinnegan became ordinary double pupils, which he could switch between freely, unlike Nagato and Sasuke, whose Rinnegan was either transplanted or induced by external forces and could never be closed.

Just then, the two who were still entangled in the Divine Might Space suddenly appeared.

Obito seemed to have been keeping an eye on the outside world. As soon as he saw his parents finish fighting, he immediately ended his endless heart-to-heart talk with his old flame.

Kakashi was in good condition, with no major injuries, except for some tears in his clothes.

Obito's situation was rather dire; his clothes were tattered, and he was covered in wounds, especially around his heart, which looked quite serious.
