At the same time, Uchiha Madara leapt to the ground. He swiftly reined in his surging purple natural chakra, converting it into a fierce Lightning Release. Crackling blue electricity illuminated his body as he moved!
The surrounding Konoha ninjas hurriedly backed away, following Hiruzen Sarutobi's orders not to interfere in their battle.
On the other side, Mito Uzumaki, who had been sent flying by Madara's attack, emerged from the rubble and dust. She rose on all fours, her crimson malevolent chakra growing even more unstable. A sixth tail sprouted from her back!
Sweat dripped down Hiruzen's forehead as he watched the scene unfold. "So, she's already unleashed six tails?"
Kakashi Sakumo turned to him nervously and asked, "Hokage-sama, what's so special about the number of tails?"
"Mito-sama can harness the power of the Nine-Tails. The more tails appear, the stronger her control over its power becomes. With six tails, she has already reached Kage-level strength!"
"Ah, I see. But there must be drawbacks, right? The more tails there are, the greater the influence of the Nine-Tails' malevolent chakra on Mito-sama's mind. If her will falters, the Nine-Tails could break free completely!"
"What?! Then… then isn't Mito-sama in grave danger?!"
"I'm not sure. When Mito-sama was younger, she could handle all nine tails without issue. But now…"
Hiruzen understood this well, but Uchiha Madara certainly wasn't ignorant either. As he gazed at Mito with her six tails, his expression showed nothing but disdain.
"Even if the real Nine-Tails were here, I wouldn't take such a beast seriously! Let alone this cheap imitation!"
The crackling lightning converged onto Madara's hands. Amidst the sizzling sounds, his signature technique—the Twin Chidori—took shape.
The gathered ninjas stared in awe at the roaring Chidori in both of Madara's hands. None of them had ever witnessed such an overwhelming display of Lightning Release—not even during battles with Kumogakure.
Hiruzen was especially unsettled. From what he knew, Uchiha Madara specialized in Fire Release. Since when had his mastery of Lightning Release become so formidable? Moreover, he hadn't even activated his Sharingan yet.
Little did they know that this Uchiha Madara was no longer the same man they thought they knew.
It seemed Madara's taunts had enraged Mito further. She let out a deafening roar, and her six crimson-red tails shot forward like whips, aiming straight for Madara.
Madara's Twin Chidori screeched violently, radiating sharp and powerful electricity under his precise control. He swung his arms rapidly, meeting Mito's six tails head-on.
In an instant, the tails and the Chidori clashed repeatedly in rapid succession. Within just one second, dozens of collisions erupted between the two forces. Red and blue streaks of light intertwined explosively mid-air.
The corrosive and aggressive nature of the Nine-Tails' malevolent chakra met Madara's equally relentless and piercing Lightning Release fueled by natural energy. For a moment, the two sides seemed evenly matched!
However, it didn't last long. Madara intensified his flow of natural energy, swinging his arms even faster. The blue lightning began steadily overpowering Mito's crimson tails.
The watching ninjas were utterly stunned. They realized that not only would they stand no chance against such speed, but Madara—using only two hands—was somehow suppressing six tails!
Madara quickly formed hand seals. Between his palms, a concentrated sphere of crackling lightning took form. Through masterful manipulation, the shape of a bird materialized within the swirling electricity.
Mito sensed something ominous brewing. She instinctively felt the threat emanating from the electric bird forming in Madara's hands. Quickly switching tactics, her six tails shifted from offense to defense.
Madara muttered lowly:
"Lightning Release: Extreme Chidori!"
With a flick of his wrist, the chirping electric bird hovered above his palm before being gently launched outward.
What initially appeared to be no larger than a sparrow suddenly expanded mid-flight, transforming into a massive eagle-like bolt of lightning. Sparks and thunder trailed behind it as it surged toward Mito. Wherever the lightning bird passed, it tore through obstacles effortlessly—including Mito's six defensive tails!
Under the wide-eyed stares of the Konoha chuunins and amidst Mito's stunned reaction, the Extreme Chidora tore through the fox-tails with overwhelming force, hurtling directly toward Mito herself!
Just then, Tsunade arrived after ensuring her brother and clan members were safe. Witnessing this scene, her face paled in shock.
The blazing blue lightning struck Mito's tailed-beast form!
In an instant, an immense surge of blue electricity engulfed Mito's entire body and the surrounding area. Buildings and debris nearby were instantly reduced to ashes by the rampant discharge of lightning.
Only Mito herself truly understood the agony she endured. What appeared to others as mere lightning carried terrifying penetrative power.
Despite the resilient layer of crimson chakra shielding her, Madara's technique pierced cleanly through her chest, cracking her ribs and narrowly missing her lungs!
Desperate to survive, Mito ignored the burning sensation caused by the residual electricity and immediately began using the Nine-Tails' chakra to heal herself.
Meanwhile, the observing Konoha shinobi fell silent, staring at the electrified battlefield.
Tsunade, however, seemed to lose control. Like a furious storm, she rushed to Hiruzen's side, showing no regard for her teacher's dignity as she grabbed him by the beard and shouted,
"Why are you standing here doing nothing while my grandmother fights alone?!"
Hiruzen flinched. How could he possibly explain his inner turmoil? Now was not the time to create discord. Desperately trying to calm Tsunade with words…
