Uchiha's personal opinion

During the period when Yagura was completely controlled by Madara Uchiha, he was hailed as the number two figure in Kirigakure due to his extraordinary strength and enjoyed a high reputation among the Kirigakure ninja.

But now this powerful figure from Kirigakure is launching an attack on their own side from within the opposing Shogunate ninja forces, which means...

The morale of the Hidden Mist ninja plummeted once again into an abyss.

"Six-Tails - Complete Tailed Beast Transformation!"

Among the Hidden Mist Ninja Army, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki couldn't help but fully reveal his Tailed Beast form, charging towards Hanzo of the Salamander and Ibuki, who had completely suppressed his flank.

Instantly, the pressure on the flanks of the Fog Concealment eased.

But three tails followed in quick succession.

Without Madara Uchiha needing to give any further instructions, a team of Kirigakure Jonin, along with sealing ninja, went to meet them.

The main battlefield, on the other hand, is a showdown between Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Tokumitsu.

"Water Release: Water Sky Assault!"

Madara Uchiha launched the first attack, his first ninjutsu creating a wave that formed a bowl-shaped water wall tens of meters in diameter, separating the charging Susanoo from the Shogunate ninja army.

Water Release: Hard Whirlpool Water Blade!

Then, it condensed into javelins in the shape of water vortexes and hurled them at the massive Susanoo.

"Flame Release: Dragon Flame Song Technique!"

Undeterred, Uchiha Tokumitsu activated his Susanoo and unleashed a fire-style ninjutsu to retaliate.

Even if some of the hard vortex water blades passed through the Flame Dragon's attack and hit the Armored Susanoo, they only caused cracks, which were then quickly repaired by the tailed beast's chakra.

"This guy... isn't he afraid of going blind from risking his life like this?"

Madara Uchiha frowned. "Didn't that brat Setsuna tell this kid about the side effects of the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

"Water Release: Exploding Water Wave!"

But with the attack of the Flame Dragons imminent, Madara Uchiha didn't think twice and immediately summoned a towering wave to engulf the four Flame Dragons.

Just as the ninjutsu clashed, figures appeared instantly from behind Uchiha Tokumitsu, landing in front of, behind, to the left and right of the two.

"Ninja Technique·Four Purple Flame Formation!"

A pale purple flame barrier descended from the sky, enveloping the bowl-shaped water wall erected by Uchiha Madara and the two of them.

It wasn't just Uchiha Madara who wanted to fight without interference; Uchiha Tokumitsu also harbored the idea of ​​defeating his ancestor in a one-on-one battle.

"boom!"

Water and fire clashed, and the two ninjutsu with opposing attributes collided, causing a violent explosion of chakra and a tremendous roar.

Under high temperatures, water vapor quickly spread within the barrier.

"Wind Release: Vacuum Wave!"

Uchiha Tokukō activated his Susanoo and unleashed a series of highly compressed chakra wind blades forward.

"Wind Release: Sky Cannon!"

Madara Uchiha also unleashed a series of powerful gusts of wind.

The water vapor within the barrier dissipated rapidly due to the agitation caused by the wind escape technique.

With a beaming smile, Uchiha Tokumitsu, enveloped in the imposing Susanoo, looked down at Uchiha Madara beneath his feet.

At this moment, the infamous old man was still wearing the Mizukage robe and hat of the Mizukage, and the expression on his face was also hidden by the shadow of the hat.

"Respected patriarch... do you still intend to fight me in this state?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu laughed as he revealed the Third Mizukage's identity, "But that makes sense. Madara, who fears the Senju like a tiger, is getting old and has to hide in other ninja villages to prolong his life. Even if he controls the Kage of a village, he can't escape the psychological shadow of the Valley of the End."

"you!"

Madara Uchiha was both shocked and furious when his identity was exposed, and he glared angrily at Tokumitsu Uchiha.

However, at this moment, the three-tomoe pattern had already appeared in his eyes.

"It really is Indra..."

Matatabi, the Two-Tails controlled by Uchiha Tokumitsu, sensed the cold and murderous aura of chakra and immediately became somewhat hesitant.

"We must kill him!"

Then, the two-tailed beast Matatabi remembered that it was no longer a wild tailed beast, but a tailed beast under the clan leader's command, and its courage was restored.

"Don't worry, the barrier isolates sound, so the old clan leader can speak freely~"

Uchiha Tokumitsu's smile remained unchanged, but his murderous aura grew stronger.

"...How did you know my identity?"

Madara Uchiha asked with a gloomy face, "Could it be that this talkative, stupid cat is spouting nonsense?"

Upon hearing this, the Two-Tails Matatabi immediately shrank his neck, but then felt it was too embarrassing, so he stuck his neck out and bared his teeth at Madara Uchiha.

"It seems the old patriarch is indeed getting senile..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu chuckled twice, "You've already forgotten the Wind Release telepathy from the Battle of Tsugaru Gorge? Looks like it'd be better to return to the Pure Land and rest in peace..."

"Humph!"

Madara Uchiha then remembered that during the Second Shinobi World War, when he personally led an expedition to the eastern part of the Land of Fire, he and Tokumitsu Uchiha had spoken some words in his own voice during the Battle of Tsugaru Gorge.

"Oh, right, there's another special person..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu seemed to suddenly remember something, and within his Susanoo, he clenched his right fist and said, "He also told me a lot of important information..."

"who!"

A sense of foreboding suddenly arose in Madara Uchiha's heart.

"Hozuki Hyakusawa~"

Uchiha Tokumitsu laughed loudly, "That pale-faced Hozuki Hyakusawa covered in barbs!"

The so-called "Hozuki Hyakusawa" was actually a disguised White Zetsu. After Kirigakure was defeated in the Uzushiogakure battlefield during the Second Shinobi World War, he attempted to feign surrender as a prisoner and infiltrate the Shogunate.

"You think I'd believe your nonsense?!"

Madara Uchiha clenched his teeth, staring intently at the smug Tokumitsu Uchiha.

Even so, deep doubts arose in his mind.

If it weren't for someone who knew the inside story leaking information to Uchiha Tokumitsu, how could this young junior have known such top-secret information!

Moreover, this is not just a simple "leak"!

You should know that in the past, Madara Uchiha placed unlimited trust in those White Zetsu who, although brain-dead, were incredibly loyal!

"My Rinnegan..."

The thought of the Rinnegan being nurtured somewhere within someone's body made Madara Uchiha's heart race and his blood pressure rise.

This secret was known only to Madara Uchiha himself and to those seemingly blindly loyal White Zetsu!

Once trust is broken, suspicion will inevitably arise. Madara Uchiha was restless, and even the White Zetsu residing on his body as a chakra power bank seemed to be making him feel a little itchy.

Their original determination to kill De Guang began to waver.

"Yasakani no Magatama!"

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Tokumitsu activated his Susanoo ninjutsu, condensing countless tomoe and hurling them at the somewhat disoriented Uchiha Madara.

"Spirit Summoning Technique: Fivefold Rashomon!"

Madara Uchiha snapped out of his daze and quickly bit his finger to unleash a summoning ninjutsu that caught Tokumitsu Uchiha completely off guard.

"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!"

Countless jade ornaments were blocked by the giant gate of hell that suddenly burst forth from the sky.

"this!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu's eyes were practically bulging out of their sockets.

Summoning Jutsu: Rashomon is a special ninjutsu that requires a blood pact to learn! How could Madara Uchiha, who once fought fiercely with the Senju clan, possibly know this ninjutsu?

Even the Uchiha ninjas maintaining the Four Purple Flame Formation on the outside were somewhat shaken.

As the smoke and dust from the chakra explosion gradually dissipated, Madara Uchiha reappeared.

He had already removed his Water Shadow God Robe, leaving only a light armor underneath. His eyes shone with an undisguised crimson light, and his three-tomoe Sharingan was spinning rapidly.

"it is good!"

Madara Uchiha chuckled strangely, "Let this senior of mine go to the trouble of guiding you, you reckless junior!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu ignored Madara Uchiha's words about breaking through his defenses; his eyes were only focused on the half of Madara's face peeking out from between his light armor plates.

"It really is the old man in his true form!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu's Mangekyou Sharingan spun faster and faster, its killing intent almost solidifying.

Following Uchiha Tokumitsu's command, the Two-Tails lowered its body, pushed off the ground with its hind legs, and prepared for a fatal attack.

The three tomoe in Madara Uchiha's eyes spun so fast that the shapes of the tomoe were almost invisible.

"Flame Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"

Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!

As if their minds were connected, Madara Uchiha and Tokumitsu Uchiha simultaneously formed the "Noon" hand seal.

Two streams of fire spewed from their mouths almost simultaneously.

The secret ninjutsu of the Uchiha clan, from the same lineage, clashed violently, creating towering waves of fire. The surrounding Four Purple Flame Formation also rippled under the scattering fire waves, seemingly on the verge of collapse.

The Uchiha ninja maintaining the barrier quickly increased his chakra output, which stabilized the barrier's existence.

Although Madara Uchiha had the White Zetsu to replenish his chakra reserves, his chakra reserves were still far inferior to those of Tokumitsu Uchiha, who possessed a tailed beast.

Before long, Uchiha Tokumitsu's Flame Release: Great Fire Annihilation began to suppress Uchiha Madara's Fire Release ninjutsu, pressing towards Uchiha Madara at a slow but irreversible and unwavering speed.

The ferocious look on Uchiha Tokumitsu's face intensified.

"Uchiha Rebound!"

Left with no other choice, Madara Uchiha had to take out a sealing scroll and unseal a huge flame fan from it, then wave it at Tokumitsu Uchiha's fire-style ninjutsu.
