Uchiha orphan, so what if I'm ruthless?

Two Perfect Susanoo, one blue and one gold, clashed together, instantly producing an earth-shattering roar.

Deep blue and golden chakra fragments exploded at the point of impact. It was like two mountains colliding. The shockwave spread outward from the center of the clash, sending rubble and dirt from the ground flying hundreds of meters into the air.

The earth trembled. The ground beneath the feet of the two Perfect Susanoo surged like water waves. Cracks spread outward from beneath the two giants, covering the entire battlefield like a spiderweb.

The golden Susanoo crossed its twin swords and slashed downward, while the deep blue Susanoo crossed its twin blades to block.

The four chakra weapons clashed, sending sparks of chakra flying like rain. Every spark that landed on the ground blasted a crater the size of a washbasin.

The bodies of the two giants leaned back slightly from the collision, then stabilized at the exact same moment. They exerted force simultaneously, their blades pressing against each other with a piercing screech. Chakra fragments flew from the point where the weapons met, drifting through the air like snowflakes.

Uchiha Taiga's figure ascended, now standing inside the head of the golden Susanoo. He thrust his hands forward, fingers spread wide. His eyes were locked onto the deep blue Susanoo opposite him, the twin chakra blades reflected in his pupils as the smile on his lips grew wider.

Uchiha Madara stood in the same position, his hands also thrust forward. His expression was cold and stern, but the light in his eyes grew increasingly bright.

The two giants simultaneously took two steps back, then charged forward at the same time.

The golden Susanoo's twin swords slashed toward the deep blue Susanoo's neck from the left and right. The speed was astonishing, the blades tearing through the air with a sharp whistle.

The deep blue Susanoo's twin blades swept upward from below, the edges precisely catching the two swords as chakra sparks flew in all directions.

The golden Susanoo raised its right knee, driving it toward the deep blue Susanoo's abdomen. The deep blue Susanoo lifted its left leg, and knee clashed against knee. Another massive boom echoed as the ground caved in from the impact.

The deep blue Susanoo flapped its wings violently, its body lifting off the ground and soaring into the sky.

The golden Susanoo spread its wings at the same time, following closely behind. The beating of its wings whipped up a fierce gale.

The two giants continued their slaughter in the air. The sound of their twin swords and twin blades clashing echoed down from high above, sounding like thunder rolling across the sky.

They fought from hundreds of meters in the air up to thousands of meters, then fought their way back down to the ground. Every collision was accompanied by a visible ring of shockwaves that blew away the surrounding clouds.

The deep blue Susanoo crossed its twin blades and swung them, slashing at the golden Susanoo's chest. The golden Susanoo crossed its twin swords to block, but its body was pushed back dozens of meters by the force of the impact, its feet plowing two deep trenches into the ground.

The deep blue Susanoo swung its twin blades again, this time chopping downward from above. The speed was incredible, the edges carving two deep blue arcs through the air.

The golden Susanoo brought its twin swords up from below to parry. Under the immense force of the impact, its body was forced down onto one knee, smashing a massive crater into the ground.

"Brat, you rarely fight using Susanoo, do you!" Uchiha Madara laughed loudly.

Uchiha Taiga was also laughing. "Yeah, after all, my past opponents were too weak. Try to understand."

As his words fell, the golden Susanoo's twin swords violently pushed upward. Its body sprang up, and the twin swords swept horizontally, slashing toward the deep blue Susanoo's waist.

The deep blue Susanoo shifted its twin blades downward, blocking the strike, but its body was pushed sideways by the impact, stumbling two steps and leaving several massive footprints in the ground.

On the small hill, Tsunade reacted the very moment the two giants clashed.

She grabbed Shizune by the back of her collar, lifting her off the ground, while simultaneously shouting at Yugito Nii, "Retreat!"

The figures of the three women darted off the small hill, retreating further away.

The ground beneath their feet trembled violently, and the roaring behind them was deafening. Shockwaves hit them one after another, blowing their hair back.

They didn't stop until they had retreated several miles away.

Tsunade turned her head to look in the direction of the battlefield, her expression extremely grave.

On the distant horizon, the two giants, one blue and one gold, were slaughtering each other under the moonlight. Every collision was accompanied by a flash of light and a loud boom.

The cracks in the ground spread outward from the center of the battlefield, reaching all the way to their feet.

The distant mountain peaks were caught in the crossfire of the battle. Massive fissures appeared on the mountainsides, and boulders tumbled down from the summits with a rumbling sound.

Yugito Nii stood beside Tsunade, her eyes fixed on the two giants. Her breathing was rapid, her heartbeat accelerating.

Her fingers trembled slightly. She was excited—an instinctive excitement at witnessing ultimate power.

She desperately wanted to transform into the Two-Tails Matatabi and rush in to join the fray, but reason kept her from acting too impulsively. She knew that even if she fully transformed into her Tailed Beast form, recklessly joining the battle would only result in her defeat.

She took a deep breath, suppressing the urge in her heart, and rested her hand on her ninja blade, her knuckles turning white.

Shizune gritted her teeth, her body trembling. Fortunately, they were far enough away now, so she was no longer as terrified as she had been on the small hill.

The distant town was also thrown into chaos.

The tremors in the ground reached the town. The windows of the houses rattled, and bowls and plates slid off tables and shattered. People were jolted awake from their sleep, running out of their houses in a panic.

They saw the bright flashes on the horizon, felt the trembling of the earth, and heard the roaring sounds coming from afar.

Some screamed, some cried. A few ninjas stationed in the area leaped onto the rooftops, looking toward the battlefield. Every one of them was incredibly tense, the figures of the two giants reflected in their pupils, unable to utter a single word.

On the battlefield, the slaughter between the two Perfect Susanoo had already strayed from the original area.

They fought from the plains by the river to the hilly region, and then fought their way back from the hills to the plains.

The ground was covered with massive footprints, deep trenches, and craters dozens of meters in diameter.

Forests were trampled flat, hills had their peaks sheared off, and rivers were cut off, their courses diverted elsewhere.

Smoke and dust filled the air, obscuring the moonlight and making it hazy and dim.

Fighting up to this point, Uchiha Madara's gaze remained sharp, his aura still overwhelmingly powerful.

He looked at the golden Susanoo opposite him, but his heart grew increasingly solemn.

This boy's Susanoo was not inferior to his in strength, speed, or defense. It was a true match of equals.

If not for the fact that his reanimated body possessed virtually infinite chakra, he might have actually lost.

If this continued, he wouldn't be able to take down this boy.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Madara let out a loud shout, his voice echoing through the night sky.

"Brat, let me show you the true power of our bloodline! You should be honored to die under such power!"

As his words fell, his eyes underwent a transformation in that instant.

The pattern of his Mangekyo Sharingan began to spin, merge, and morph. The crimson background faded away, replaced by pale purple eyeballs bearing a pattern of concentric circles.

Rinnegan!

Uchiha Madara clasped his hands together, palms touching, fingers pointing upward.

A massive amount of chakra surged from his body.

"Tengai Shinsei!"

Soon, an anomaly appeared in the sky.

The clouds were torn apart by an invisible force, revealing the dark red night sky behind them.

At the highest point in the night sky, a massive dark shadow was slowly descending.

It was a meteorite, over hundreds of meters in diameter, several times larger than the two Perfect Susanoo.

Its surface was uneven, burning with flames, trailing a long tail of fire as it plummeted from the sky.

The meteorite drew closer and closer, growing larger and larger, the sense of oppression becoming increasingly intense.

The air was compressed, forming gusts of fierce wind that blew downward from the sky, sweeping up the rubble and dust on the ground and tossing them into the air.

The bottom of the meteorite turned red-hot from friction, as if a pool of magma were flowing beneath it.

The golden Susanoo stood on the ground, looking up at the falling meteorite.

Its body was a hundred meters tall, but in front of that meteorite, it was far too small.

The shadow of the meteorite covered the entire battlefield, completely blocking out the moonlight and plunging the world into darkness.

Tsunade looked up at the meteorite, her face as pale as paper.

Her lips parted as she tried to say something, but the words caught in her throat. At this moment, she felt an instinctive sense of powerlessness, as if facing a natural disaster.

Only one thought remained in her mind... 'Could anyone truly withstand this kind of power? How on earth did Grandfather defeat him back then?'

Yugito Nii's pupils contracted to their limits. Her throat went dry, her breathing grew rapid, and her heart beat so fast it felt like it would leap out of her chest.

Shizune was already crying out of fear.

Down below, Uchiha Taiga looked up at the meteorite. His expression was fierce, filled with a long-suppressed ecstasy that could finally be unleashed.

The corners of his mouth split open, and laughter squeezed out of his throat, growing louder and wilder.

"Hahaha!!! Good, good, good! This is exactly how it should be!"

Immediately after, his eyes exited the Mangekyo state, reverting to the form of the Byakugan.

But in the next moment, those Byakugan suddenly became dazzling. The white irises seemed to light up, emitting a soft, pale golden glow.

Behind him, three pale golden chakra spheres slowly materialized, hovering at his back in a triangular formation.

Each chakra sphere was the size of a fist, their surfaces swirling with golden patterns, pulsing slightly as if breathing.

A faint golden chakra flame also permeated his body, covering his skin like a thin veil.

"Although it's still a bit far from those true eyes, this can be considered the most powerful force I currently possess."

Uchiha Taiga raised his head, looking at the still-falling meteorite, his voice rising a few pitches.

"Uchiha Madara, let me show you the power that these eyes represent!"
