I am the new Hokage of Konoha.

Madara calmly observed all of this, his hands slowly forming hand seals as he spoke:

Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!

A massive sea of ​​fire, far exceeding the normal power of a B-rank ninjutsu, spewed from Madara's mouth and surged towards A.

Just then, Mei Terumi, who was following behind, sped up and arrived in front, also forming hand seals:

"Water Release: Water Pillar!"

A giant water sphere spewed from her mouth and rushed towards Ban's raging fire.

Soon, the sea of ​​fire, which normally required dozens of ninjas to use Water Release techniques to extinguish, was extinguished by the Mizukage alone.

A large amount of dense fog was generated and spread across the field as water and fire mingled.

Taking advantage of this moment, like a blue flash, with his entire body gathered in Lightning Release chakra, A charged towards Madara at breakneck speed. The instant he arrived, he stretched out his right arm, unleashing a powerful wrist strike, and roared:

"Lightning Release: Lightning Plow Blade!"

boom!

!

A tremendous crash resounded from the Susanoo skeleton that Madara had just summoned.

Kacha kacha kacha~~

Under Ai's incredibly powerful attack, Susanoo's skeleton was instantly shattered.

Ban, who was inside, blocked with both hands, and with a "whoosh" sound, he fell backward rapidly under the residual force of Lei Li's hot blade.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Ōnoki, who had already risen high into the sky, clasped his hands together and addressed Madara:

"Dust Release: Particle Style: Detachment Technique!"

Instantly, a transparent cube-shaped barrier extended from between Onoki's palms, carrying a terrifying power capable of separating any object into atomic states, and swiftly flew towards Uchiha Madara.

"The dust escape of nothingness?"

Madara, who was watching all this, suddenly moved. Just as the Primal World Detachment Technique was about to begin, he stretched out his hand and activated the Sealing Technique Absorption Seal.

The next instant, all of Onoki's Dust Release techniques were completely absorbed by him.

"This is???"

Onoki, who was fighting the Rinnegan for the first time, was filled with shock.

He never expected that his Dust Release technique, which he had always been so proud of, would be neutralized so easily.

Snapped!Snapped!

Just then, Madara, having regained his footing, casually brushed the dust off his clothes and kindly explained to Onoki, "The Rinnegan can absorb all ninjutsu. Onoki, you should think of another way."

"She actually absorbed all the ninjutsu?" At this moment, Mei Terumi, whose strength lay entirely in ninjutsu, looked extremely grim.

Thinking back to the initial encounter between Madara and them, it really was just playing around, as the other side said.

"Is this the power of the Rinnegan?" Rasa, who also witnessed the entire process of Dust Release being absorbed, frowned.

A, whose strength lies entirely in ninjutsu and taijutsu, was the least affected.

However, when he realized that even his most powerful taijutsu, the Thunder Strike Blade, had failed to truly harm Madara, his heart sank.

In the time that followed, the four shadows, feeling immense pressure, undoubtedly fell into a much quieter silence.

Seeing this, Madara said somewhat boredly, "It seems you can't come up with any good ideas to amuse me. In that case, let's just end this boring battle quickly."

"Wood Release: Descent of the Flower Tree World!"

With a clap of Ban's hands, in an instant, a large number of trees bearing huge flowers rose rapidly from the ground within a radius of one mile, centered on the former.

boom! boom! boom!

In a very short time, thick, incredibly strong trees sprouted from the ground and, like snakes, crashed into the four directions.

Before they could even be surprised that Madara Uchiha also knew Wood Release, Onoki, A, Mei Terumi, and Rasa could only quickly dodge.

However, soon, the huge flowers that were originally closed suddenly bloomed open, spraying out yellow pollen with a strong sedative effect that quickly spread to the four corners of the room.

"Caution! Do not inhale pollen!"

Having lived through the era of Hashirama Senju, Onoki, who knew this was the famous Wood Release: Flower Tree World Technique, quickly took to the air while loudly warning.

Upon hearing this, Luo Sha immediately used the gold dust to condense three sand pads.

Just before the yellow pollen arrived, the sand mat finally caught up and lifted him and Ai, along with Mei Terumi, into the air.

"Whew~ Almost there!"

Looking down at the vast sea of ​​trees already shrouded in yellow powder, Luo Sha breathed a sigh of relief.

But before he could rest for long, a threat from the sky arrived.

"You should all leave!"

Suddenly appearing in the air and summoning Susanoo again, Madara thought for a moment, and his massive blue giant hand was about to swat down the four Kage as easily as swatting a mosquito.

Knowing he absolutely couldn't afford to take this hit, Onoki unleashed his fury once more.

"Dust Release: Limit Separation Technique!"

The square white barrier, an upgraded version of the Primal World Detachment Technique, was thrown out directly by Onoki this time.

The moment it swiftly arrived in front of Susanoo, the white barrier, which had previously been only the size of a palm, instantly expanded a thousandfold.

Everything enveloped by the Limit Separation Technique, including Susanoo, was immediately separated into atomic states without any resistance.

The only survivor was Ban.

Because he used Susanoo, he was able to withdraw from the range of the Limit Separation Technique in time, even though he didn't have time to absorb the Dust Release.

"The Bloodline Limit, which transcends Bloodline Limits, truly lives up to its name."

Looking at this technique, which was far more powerful than the previous Origin World Detachment Technique, Madara's face finally showed a slight change in expression.

Even setting aside Hashirama's own cells, if Hashirama with his Sage Mode or Senju Kumo-no-Tsubasa were hit by this technique, they would surely die.

"I underestimated you a bit. It seems you guys can still surprise me, Onoki." Madara, who was falling in mid-air, looked at the four Kage and said with a hint of pleasure on his face.

“There are even more surprises for you!” Onoki said, “The Mizukage! The Raikage!”

"Understood!" Mei Terumi and Ai said in unison, forming hand seals.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

"Lightning Release: Lightning Stream!"

"Ninja Art: Lightning Water Dragon Bullet!"

In an instant, with the combined ninjutsu of Mei Terumi and A, a giant water dragon bullet carrying lightning chakra and possessing a paralyzing effect unexpectedly crashed into Madara through the empty space deliberately left by Onoki's Genkai Separation Technique.

"I already told you ninjutsu is ineffective against me." Surprised by the sudden attack, Madara shook his head, feeling somewhat disappointed instead of panicked. He opened his right palm and activated the Sealing Technique Absorption Seal again, greedily absorbing the massive lightning and water dragon bullet that had reached him.

However, faced with this situation, Mei Terumi and A did not stop, but instead increased the consumption of chakra to make Madara continue to absorb it.

"what?"

Soon, Madara realized something was wrong.

Not only because of the unusual behavior of the two Mizukage and Raikage, but also because he discovered that a lot of gold dust had inexplicably appeared on his body.

"Did you notice?" Luo Sha smiled slightly, having seen everything.

He wasn't idle before.

As the Thunderwater Dragon Bullet was being formed, he also mixed numerous tiny specks of gold dust, so fine they were barely perceptible to the naked eye, into the former's body.

Madara Uchiha's sealing technique, Absorption Seal, can indeed absorb all ninjutsu.

However, the gold dust encased in the Magnetism Array was a real object.

As Ban absorbed the Thunder Water Dragon Bullet, the gold dust that had also come to him but could not be absorbed quickly gathered together. Soon, it not only enveloped Ban's arm, but also spread throughout his entire body, propelled by the even more gold dust carried by the Thunder Water Dragon Bullet.

"Besides, it's not just placer gold!"

At this moment, Luo Sha opened his palm towards Ban.

Instantly, tadpole-shaped sealing techniques suddenly appeared on the numerous gold dust particles gathered on the surface of Ban's body.

The Grand Burial Seal of the Gold-Plated Layer!

As a sealing technique that Rasa had used to subdue the rampaging One-Tailed Beast multiple times, it was now being used by him, with numerous gold dusts engraved with specific sealing techniques being brought onto Madara's body.

"The Rinnegan can absorb ninjutsu, but it can't absorb sealing techniques, right?" Rasa smiled slightly after successfully succeeding.

Mei Terumi, continuing to maintain the Water Dragon Bullet Technique, curled her red lips slightly: "If you don't like gold dust, then don't absorb ninjutsu."

Ai: "But in that case, Madara will be paralyzed by the Lightning Water Dragon Bullet and unable to move his entire body."

“Then I will take the opportunity to use Dust Release,” Onoki said. “In that case, Madara will still have nowhere to escape!”

In the eyes of the four Kage, Madara now only has two possible endings.

One option was to continue using sealing techniques to absorb the lightning and water dragon bullets in front of him, but in the end, he was sealed by the sand gold.

Secondly, in order to break free from the gold dust and cease maintaining the sealing technique, he could not avoid the paralyzing effect of the Lightning Water Dragon Bullet. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Onoki could once again use Dust Release to kill him in one strike.

This is the method the four Kage devised to deal with Madara in a short period of time.

They never thought of giving up.

The earlier silence was mostly due to thinking about solutions, which led to the current outburst.

"See that? This is the power of the Four Kage!" Onoki shouted at Madara, his hands already formed with Dust Release, ready to unleash it at any moment.

Upon hearing this, Ban, still casting the sealing technique to absorb the seal, letting the gold dust covered in tadpole-like marks spread across his body, his face showing no sign of panic, smiled slightly and said:

"I see."

"The four of you certainly live up to the title of Shadow. But!"

"The so-called shadow is just the limit that ordinary people can reach. For me, who has long surpassed that level, everything right now is just a warm-up."

"Now that you have pleased me somewhat, as a reward..."

In that instant, only his right eye, the last eye not covered by the gold dust, made its final announcement to the four shadows.
