Chapter 33: Peak Battle
Violent air currents spread outward, tearing cracks through the earth as the clash between two colossal Susanoo continued. Even the surrounding mountains were split apart by their devastating power.
As the battle raged on, its shockwaves spread farther and farther—until even the Senju Clan took notice.
The first to detect the disturbance was Tobirama. His sharp sensory abilities made it impossible to miss the two massive Susanoo standing like beacons in the dark, their overwhelming chakra signatures visible even from hundreds of kilometers away.
Without hesitation, Tobirama and Hashirama led a group of elite Senju warriors to investigate. What they found was nothing short of catastrophic—two giant warriors locked in a titanic struggle, one radiating a golden aura while the other, a towering blue Crow Tengu, clashed violently. The land beneath them was scarred beyond recognition, mountains crumbling, and the terrain covered in deep, jagged ravines—a battlefield of pure destruction.
"The blue one is definitely Madara's Susanoo, but..." Hashirama frowned as he studied the scene. "How did it change so drastically in just half a month? Its shape, size, and power—everything is different."
When they last fought, Madara's Susanoo had been strong, but nothing like this. His growth in such a short time was almost unnatural. Now, Hashirama was no longer certain of victory.
"And that golden one..." He narrowed his eyes.
Tobirama scowled, his fists clenching. "That's Uchiha Xiu Yu. His chakra is unmistakable. When the hell did that bastard unlock his Mangekyō Sharingan?"
At this moment, Tobirama felt completely powerless. Both Madara and Xiu Yu had reached terrifying heights. If he dared to challenge either of them alone, it would be nothing short of suicide.
"Brother," Tobirama asked through gritted teeth, "if you go all out, can you defeat both Madara and Xiu Yu?"
Hashirama turned to him, his expression unreadable.
