Chapter 251: Brutally Beating Uchiha Madara 

“This is the end… I can't believe Madara still has this kind of power!” 

Tsunade and the others once again closed their eyes in despair. 

But just then, a massive golden giant appeared in front of them. 

Not only did it block Madara’s attack, it actually knocked his Perfect Susanoo to the ground! 

“May I start dancing now?” 

Once again, Kazama had saved their lives. At this point, Tsunade and the rest were beyond words with gratitude. 

“Lady Tsunade, you and the other Five Kage should lead the Allied Shinobi Forces and retreat immediately. I don’t want you caught up in the fight between me and Uchiha Madara.” 

“Oh—right!” 

The Five Kage had originally wanted to stay and watch the battle up close. 

But after hearing Kazama’s words, they quickly gathered the shinobi forces and retreated. 

They knew staying would only get in the way. 

“You… you can use Perfect Susanoo too?!” 

Seeing the massive golden warrior Kazama had summoned, Madara was shocked. 

He had thought he was the only one in the world capable of manifesting the Perfect Susanoo. 

He never imagined someone as unknown as Kazama could achieve the same. 

“Are you from the Uchiha clan?” Madara asked after noticing Kazama’s Susanoo and his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. 

He immediately tried to recruit Kazama to join him. 

But what Kazama said next made Madara furious. 

“I’m not from the Uchiha clan. I’m from the Sanada clan.” 

“What?! Trash from the Sanada clan dares to wield our Uchiha dojutsu?! And you’ve even awakened a Perfect Susanoo?! This is outrageous!” 

Madara roared with rage and charged again, controlling his Perfect Susanoo to attack. 

“Let me remind you—my Sanada clan is far from trash. And this isn’t just a Perfect Susanoo… it’s a Divine Susanoo!” 

“You dare to call yourself a god at your age? Then I’ll be your god-slayer! Yasakani no Magatama!” 

Madara’s Perfect Susanoo launched its most powerful attack—Yasakani no Magatama. 

“This technique is unstoppable. Prepare to die!” 

“Funny, I was just about to stop it.” 

Kazama calmly summoned one of the Six Divine Tools—the Jade Void Ice Mirror. 

It instantly reflected dozens of Yasakani no Magatama right back at Madara. 

“Not only can I block it—I can return it to you exactly as it came!” 

“What?! That’s impossible!” 

Madara’s eyes widened in disbelief as he saw his own ultimate jutsu reflected perfectly. 

He quickly raised the Tengu Armor on his Perfect Susanoo to defend. 

“You brat! My Susanoo’s Tengu Armor is indestructible! You think you can beat me? Dream on!” 

While Madara was busy praising his own power— 

Kazama’s Susanoo had already unleashed another Divine Tool—Samehada. 

In a flash, it tore through the Tengu Armor and completely absorbed it. 

“This is another of my Divine Tools—Samehada. It has the power to devour chakra!” 

“Damn it!” 

Seeing Kazama’s Divine Susanoo overpower his own Perfect Susanoo, Madara cursed under his breath. 

He quickly used the wings on the back of his Susanoo to retreat a hundred meters away. 

Chapter 252: Absorbing Madara's Ultimate Moves 

"You little brat! Don’t think you can show off just because you’ve got a divine weapon. My Complete Susanoo can fly now—let’s see what you can do against that!" 

Just as Madara thought he could dodge Kazama’s attacks... 

He was suddenly pierced straight through by Kazama’s infinitely extending Kusanagi Sword. 

"This is the legendary Kusanagi Sword. No matter where you run, it can extend infinitely to follow you!" 

"You’re really starting to piss me off!" 

Seeing himself repeatedly suppressed by Kazama, Uchiha Madara flew into a rage. 

"Already mad? Then you're really gonna lose it next! Susanoo's Blades!" 

Before Madara could react, Kazama’s two massive Susanoo swords came crashing down. 

In an instant, they shattered Madara’s Complete Susanoo into pieces. 

"And now... time for the final divine weapon—Flame-Heaven Bow!" 

As Kazama's Susanoo drew the Flame-Heaven Bow, the entire area was engulfed in a sea of fire. 

The power was even greater than the Great Fire Destruction Arrow Kazama had unleashed before. 

Once again, Madara was swallowed by the inferno. 

"Madara, you still haven’t answered my question. Do I have the right to dance now?" 

Kazama knew Madara wouldn’t die that easily, so he taunted him immediately. 

His goal now was to force Madara to reveal all his jutsu—and seize the chance to absorb them. 

Otherwise, Kazama would’ve already used Kotoamatsukami or the Nether Lotus Demon Flame to turn Madara into his fire slave. 

"You brat! You’ll never be qualified to dance in front of me!" 

At that moment, the blazing inferno summoned by the Flame-Heaven Bow was visibly sucked into Uchiha Madara’s body. 

"You think you’re the only one who can absorb jutsu? Today I’ll show you the true power of the Rinnegan!" 

"Absorbing my attacks with the Preta Path, huh?" 

Kazama was very familiar with the Rinnegan's ocular powers. 

"The Rinnegan’s definitely powerful, but unfortunately, it’s useless against me. I possess an ability it can’t absorb!" 

"Don’t talk nonsense! Utter rubbish!" 

Madara exploded with rage, furious that Kazama dared to look down on his Rinnegan. 

"You arrogant little punk. You talk big for someone so young. There’s nothing in this world the Rinnegan can’t absorb—" 

"Void Devouring Flame!" 

Before Madara could finish, Kazama unleashed his second-ranked Heavenly Flame straight at him. 

When the monstrous black flame in the form of a beast rushed toward him, even Madara was visibly shaken. 

"Hmph! It’s just some black fire. You think I can’t absorb that?!" 

Madara activated the Preta Path again, trying to absorb the flames. 

Unfortunately for him, the Void Devouring Flame had long since surpassed the Rinnegan’s absorption limits. 

In a split second, it devoured Madara's entire body. 

If it weren’t for his Edo Tensei body allowing him to regenerate, he would’ve been completely wiped out right then and there. 

"You bastard! If I don’t kill you, I swear I’m not human—Heavenly Obstruction Meteor!" 

Driven mad by Kazama’s relentless dominance, Uchiha Madara unleashed his ultimate move. 

His Susanoo and his own body formed two different hand seals simultaneously. 

Suddenly, the once-bright sky turned dark with heavy clouds. 

In the distance, the Allied Shinobi Forces and the Five Kage looked up—and immediately collapsed to the ground in shock, smiling bitterly in despair. 

Chapter 253 – Uchiha Madara Scared Pissless 

Just then, an enormous meteor appeared in the sky above their heads. 

Its size was so massive, there was simply nowhere to run. 

"You little punk, see this? This is true divine power. A year from today will be your Allied Shinobi Forces' day of mourning! Hahaha!" 

While Madara was laughing maniacally, the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, suddenly flew up and braced himself against the falling meteor. 

“**Ultra-Lightweight Boulder Jutsu!” “Lava Style: Lava Monster Jutsu!” “Sand Hands…!**” 

The Five Kage all followed suit, unleashing their own secret techniques. Together, they barely managed to hold back the massive meteor. 

"Hmph! A bunch of insects... You're about to die and you still dare to resist?" 

Madara sneered, mocking their efforts. 

“They're not insects... They’re people who’ve found their resolve again!” 

“Haha! That’s hilarious!” 

Hearing Kazama’s words, Madara laughed so hard he doubled over. 

“You say they’ve regained their resolve? Then tell me, how do you all plan to stop the second meteor?” 

Just as he spoke, a second massive meteor came plummeting from the sky. 

“I’ll be the one to stop it!” 

As Kazama finished speaking, his body had already appeared beneath the falling rock. 

“Body Flicker Technique? Or some kind of space-time jutsu?” 

Seeing Kazama move so quickly, even Madara couldn’t help but be secretly shocked. 

“Doesn’t matter what jutsu you used. No matter how fast you are, this time... you won’t escape death!” 

Madara laughed coldly, mocking Kazama for trying to save the Allied Shinobi Forces from two meteors falling from the sky. 

“Kazama, little brother... we’re dragging you down!” 

The Third Tsuchikage, who had been the first to bear the meteor’s weight, was now covered in blood. 

Originally, the Five Kage had hoped to hold back the meteor with their combined strength so that Kazama could focus on Madara. 

But seeing how ineffective they were, forcing Kazama to split his focus, all five of them silently cursed their own weakness. 

“I already told you—if we’re comrades, then we’ll share the burden together! *Monstrous Strength Unmatched!*” 

With that, Kazama used his monstrous strength to lift both meteors back into the sky. 

“It’s useless! No matter how high you lift them, they’ll still fall. And if you try to destroy them, the debris will crush your precious Allied Shinobi Forces into bloody pulp! Hahaha!” 

Madara laughed from afar, convinced Kazama had no way out. 

“Wait—what?!” 

But in that very moment, to Madara’s shock, the two massive meteors began to visibly dissolve and were completely absorbed into Kazama’s body. 

“What the hell?! That’s impossible! Even the Rinnegan can’t absorb something of this scale! How the hell did that little punk pull it off?!” 

Madara, who was usually as calm as an old dog, couldn’t help but feel rattled by Kazama’s power. 

Ding! Skill ‘Heavenly Meteor Devastation’ absorbed successfully. Congratulations to the host—Divine Power: Meteor Rain unlocked! 

Kazama raised a single finger into the air. 

Just as Madara was still reeling from shock, a shadow appeared above his head... 

A meteor, even larger than the ones he had summoned himself, came crashing down. 

“You monster… What technique is that?!” 

Madara immediately activated his Perfect Susanoo, barely managing to withstand the meteor’s impact. 

Even though he was still in his Edo Tensei body—immortal and undying—being smashed by something like that was no laughing matter. 

Chapter 254: I'm Not Human, I'm a God 

He was worried that Kazama would take the opportunity to seal him, which is why he chose to use Susanoo to block the meteor. 

“This technique is called: Divine Power — Celestial Meteor Descent!” 

“Hah! You little punk, I don't care what kind of divine power or fart power you're talking about. Under the protection of my Susanoo, blocking that kind of technique is barely even a warm-up!” 

Hearing Madara’s arrogant words, Kazama burst out laughing. 

“Madara! I know you're incredibly strong. But in that case, let me ask you—how are you going to block the second meteor?” 

“What?! You—!” 

Madara was stunned by Kazama’s words. At that moment, a second, even larger meteor came crashing down from the sky. 

The first meteor Kazama summoned was already several times larger than the one Madara had used in Tengai Shinsei. But now, the second meteor dwarfed even the first one. 

Kazama’s Celestial Meteor Descent was on a completely different level than Madara’s earlier technique. 

If Madara’s Tengai Shinsei was like a chunk of rock from a planet, then Kazama’s divine meteor technique was like the entire planet itself crashing down. 

“My god… Just how strong has Kazama become?!” 

“This clearly isn’t a jutsu that any human could perform!” 

From afar, the Five Kage and the Allied Shinobi Forces could only stare in shock, jaws dropping at the sight of the two massive meteors. 

“Tsunade, your Konoha really produced a genius!” 

“No… he’s not a genius…” 

Tsunade shook her head as she spoke. 

“He’s a god!” 

BOOM! 

As the two meteors slammed down, Madara’s Complete Body Susanoo was instantly obliterated into nothingness— and Madara himself was completely buried beneath the destruction. 

“Madara, allow me to lend you a hand.” 

At that moment, Zetsu, who had been hiding in the shadows, infused Madara with all the chakra from the nine Tailed Beasts that the Demonic Statue had absorbed. 

“It’s only half the chakra from the nine Tailed Beasts… but it’s enough for you to become the Jinchūriki of the Ten-Tails and awaken the power of the Sage of Six Paths!” 

As Zetsu finished speaking, Madara, who had been crushed by the meteor, suddenly felt power coursing through his entire body. 

In an instant, he burst out from under the wreckage and reappeared before everyone. 

The Five Kage had just been preparing to celebrate Kazama’s apparent victory, thinking that Madara was finally defeated for good. 

But before they could act, Madara returned—reborn in a new form. 

Even though he had only absorbed half the chakra of the nine Bijū, with Zetsu’s help, Madara forcefully awakened the power of the Rikudō Sennin—the Sage of Six Paths. 

His entire body turned white, and six pitch-black Truth-Seeking Orbs (Gudōdama) appeared behind him. He floated in the air, exuding the presence of a god. 

The Five Kage and the Allied Shinobi Forces were left completely stunned. 

They had thought Kazama had finished him off for good— but instead, Madara not only survived, his power now surpassed what it had ever been before. 

“So this is the power of the Sage of Six Paths… Incredible!” 

Madara, now revived and transformed, looked down at his new body and burst into maniacal laughter. 

Meanwhile, Kazama remained on the ground, showing none of the fear the others felt. On the contrary, he looked even more thrilled. 

He knew that if Zetsu had made Madara the Jinchūriki of the Ten-Tails, then it meant it wouldn’t be long before Zetsu used Madara’s body to resurrect Ōtsutsuki Kaguya. 

And when that happened, Kazama would finally have the chance to absorb Kaguya’s power— and awaken the Rinne Sharingan with Nine Tomoe. 

“Little punk… Prepare to die!” 

Madara, now the Ten-Tails’ Jinchūriki, was once again overflowing with arrogance. 

Chapter 255: The Arrival of Rikudō Madara 

With a swift motion of his hand, several of the Gudōdama (Truth-Seeking Orbs) behind him morphed into sharp spikes and pierced straight through Kazama, pinning him violently to the ground. 

The speed was almost too fast to comprehend. 

“Haha! What now, you little punk? Didn’t see that coming, did you?” Uchiha Madara sneered. “Did you really think a mere mortal like you could kill me? Let me make this clear—I, Uchiha Madara, am the true god! These Truth-Seeking Orbs pinning you down are part of the Kekkei Mōra—a bloodline power above Kekkei Genkai and even Kekkei Tōta—created by the Sage of Six Paths himself. Only those who’ve attained Rikudō Senjutsu can wield this power. Anyone without it dies just by touching them. You won’t last long.” 

Hearing this, the Five Kage and the shinobi alliance behind them were completely stunned. 

Everything had flipped so suddenly—they didn’t even have time to process what was happening. 

Just moments ago, Kazama had clearly emerged victorious. But now, Madara had been resurrected and turned the tables in an instant, slamming Kazama into the ground. 

But being pinned by the Truth-Seeking Orbs didn’t mean Kazama had lost the ability to move. Nor did it mean he’d been truly defeated by Madara. 

After all, Kazama had also obtained the power of the Ten Tails, and with it, he too had mastered Rikudō Senjutsu. 

The Truth-Seeking Orbs couldn’t actually harm him. 

In fact, not only were they incapable of damaging him—Kazama could even absorb them completely if he wanted to. 

He was pretending to be overwhelmed on purpose, letting Madara think he had the upper hand. 

Kazama knew that soon, Black Zetsu would try to manipulate Madara into casting Infinite Tsukuyomi. Once the jutsu was cast, those caught in its illusion would have their chakra absorbed by the God Tree. 

And when that happened, Black Zetsu would be able to revive Ōtsutsuki Kaguya. 

As soon as Kaguya returned, Kazama planned to absorb the full power of the Ōtsutsuki clan himself. 

That’s why Kazama was faking defeat. 

If he kept humiliating Madara in battle, it would throw off Black Zetsu’s plan entirely. They’d never be able to initiate the Infinite Tsukuyomi, let alone revive Kaguya. 

“Sorry, everyone…” Kazama, lying there, spoke silently in his heart to the Five Kage and the entire shinobi alliance. “To gain Kaguya Ōtsutsuki’s power, I have no choice but to play the part of the loser for now. I’ll let you fall into the Infinite Tsukuyomi temporarily—but don’t worry. As soon as she’s revived, I’ll break you free.” 

Meanwhile, Madara still had no clue Kazama was feigning defeat. 

He swaggered up to him and burst into laughter. 

“What’s wrong, Kazama? Weren’t you acting all tough earlier? Come on then—fight me, you bastard!” he yelled, laughing wildly as he kicked and punched the pinned Kazama. 

Seeing Madara act so arrogantly infuriated Kazama deep down. 

But for the sake of the greater plan, he forced himself to ignore the blows. 

Madara, seeing that Kazama didn’t fight back, became even more convinced Kazama had truly given up—and that only encouraged him to keep attacking more viciously. 

Madara prided himself on being the strongest shinobi in history. So when Kazama had beaten him so badly earlier, it had wounded his pride deeply. 

Now, he was desperate to restore his ego—by any means necessary. 

Just then, Black Zetsu, watching from the shadows, grew impatient. Madara was too fixated on attacking Kazama and still hadn’t cast Infinite Tsukuyomi…
