Chapter 237: Infinite Tsukuyomi
Naruto swung the strand of wind with his other hand, continuing to search for the remaining clones.
Although he had said there were "four," it was merely a deduction based on what he could observe. The one that had ambushed him, the two that had attacked from the sides using ninjutsu, and the one that blocked the Tailed Beast Bomb with Storm Release—this led him to believe there were four.
...But there could be more.
Though Naruto hadn't exchanged many words with Madara, he had already seen through his personality. Madara was outwardly arrogant but extremely cautious and would never underestimate his opponents. If he wasn't confident, he might have hidden another clone.
Madara watched Naruto and raised his hand to touch his lost eyes.
Even though he could fully use the power of the Rinnegan now, in his Edo Tensei state, he didn't truly possess them. He had tested this right after being resurrected to see if his Rinnegan was real. If it were, he could theoretically mass-produce them—one pair wouldn't be enough to defeat Naruto, but what about ten pairs, a hundred, or even thousands?
However, this theory had been disproven.
The Rinnegan he extracted from himself turned to dust in less than a minute, proving that they couldn't be replicated and weren't real Rinnegan.
As Madara contemplated this, Adamantine Sealing Chains wrapped around the figure, binding it tightly in midair. The invisible being struggled with immense strength, snapping some of the chains, but for every one that broke, two more replaced it.
