Naruto: The Otsutsuki Naruto

Hmm?

Aside from Hashirama's chakra, Madara also sensed another presence approaching—a distinct and potent chakra.

Activating the Byakugan in his right eye, he scanned the direction of this chakra response.

A fully formed Susano'o was speeding toward him, piloted by someone Madara was quite familiar with.

Heh, it's been a few months, and Sasuke has toughened up quite a bit. Is he here to join the fray?

Retracting his gaze, Madara had no time to greet Sasuke. His thoughts were entirely consumed by the imminent reunion with the one who occupied his heart.

Hashirama!!!

Boom!

Madara crushed the rocky ground beneath his feet, rushing toward the horizon at breakneck speed. He casually tossed a Flying Thunder God kunai, teleported to it, caught it mid-air, and threw it again!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

With sparks and lightning trailing behind him, Madara charged straight toward the Undying River!

Swish!

In the distance, a strong premonition caused Hashirama to turn his gaze skyward.

Tobirama: "Big brother?"

Hashirama: "Madara must be here!"

Tobirama quickly confirmed through his own sensory abilities: "Indeed! Besides Madara, there's another chakra—innately malevolent!"

Hashirama, without hesitation: "I'll go find Madara!"

Tobirama: "On the other side, it seems there's a group of unknown individuals blocking the way. However, I suspect their strength won't be enough to handle Sarutobi or Minato. You two come with me!"

Hiruzen: "Understood!"

Minato: "I'm a bit worried about Naruto; let me stay here to keep an eye on him!"

Tobirama: "Ah, the bond of blood. Alright, let's proceed this way. We'll use Flying Thunder God to coordinate if anything happens. Let's exchange marks!"

Minato: "Got it!"

Tobirama and Minato placed Flying Thunder God marks on each other.

Then, Hashirama, Tobirama, and Hiruzen each summoned their Nimbus Clouds and pursued the chakra outside the Undying River.

On the battlefield below.

Tsuchima: "The Hokage have all flown off."

Obito: "It seems a third party has intervened. With the Hokage here, the pressure on Afei and the others should lessen."

Before the battle began, Obito had tasked Afei and the White Zetsu army with similar diversionary tactics.

Naruto Uzumaki stood shoulder to shoulder with Minato Namikaze, facing off against Obito and Tsuchima.

Tsuchima: "Heh, a two-on-two, huh?"

Obito: "In reality, it's still one-on-one."

Naruto glanced at the residual Torii Gates left behind from his earlier suppression of Obito, his eyes lighting up with inspiration: "I've thought of a new move!"

Clap!

Naruto formed a hand seal.

Sage Art: Torii Gates!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

One after another, massive Torii Gates descended from the sky!

But instead of targeting Obito and Tsuchima, they lined up neatly across the ground!

Tsuchima: "What's he up to now? That technique consumes an immense amount of chakra!"

Obito: "He's Naruto. Never underestimate him!"

Boom!

The final Torii Gate landed, combining with the residual gate left from suppressing Obito earlier, forming a total of eighteen gates.

Zzz!

Naruto's eyes gleamed brightly as he focused on each Torii Gate in turn.

Futsunomitama!

Each Torii Gate was imbued with a soul.

The beams of the gates opened their eyes!

The pillars transformed into legs!

Naruto: "Go!"

Duang!

Suddenly, one Torii Gate leapt into the air, falling toward Obito!

Obito: "What the hell is this!?"

Boom!!

Obito jumped back to dodge, attempting to use Kamui to warp the incoming Torii Gate away.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

But then the second, third, and fourth gates followed suit, leaping and crashing down in succession!

Obito's face darkened: "What kind of cursed ocular jutsu have your eyes awakened to?!"

Up in the sky, Minato Namikaze sat on his cloud, observing the scene below. He pondered for a moment before naming the technique: "To imbue the Torii Gates with souls, forming an eighteen-gate cycle with relentless attacks akin to a thousand-strong army—this move shall be called Futsunomitama Divine Sky Gate Formation: Eighteen Rampaging Souls Style!"

Satisfied with the name, he turned to Konan and asked with a smile: "Konan, does this name work?"

Konan remained silent for a moment before replying: "You truly are my junior disciple."

Minato was stunned: "Junior disciple?!"

Konan calmly explained: "You didn't know? I'm also a student of Jiraiya-sensei. In terms of seniority, I should have joined before you."

Minato blushed: "This... this is no small matter. We'll have to sort this out later."

Back on the ground.

Whoosh!

Using the cover provided by the Futsunomitama Divine Sky Gate Formation: Eighteen Rampaging Souls Style, Minato Namikaze meditated on the spot, entering Sage Mode of Mount Myoboku.

Upon rising, he combined Flying Thunder God with Shadow Clones, launching a barrage of Rasengan attacks to suppress Obito, leaving him no chance to support Tsuchima!

Bang!

Facing Tsuchima, Naruto himself took the field, landing atop the horizontal beam of a Torii Gate. His scarf fluttered in the wind as he crossed his arms before his chest.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Using the Torii Gate as makeshift stilts, Naruto leapt three times in succession, closing in on Tsuchima!

Unlike Obito, Tsuchima's intangibility had a time limit, requiring him to counterattack at the right moment!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

But as Naruto pressed forward, he swung the Bashosen, unleashing powerful elemental techniques of earth, water, fire, wind, lightning, and wood!

The Bashosen's soul mimicked Hashirama's essence, allowing it to create wood-style techniques that weren't originally part of its repertoire!

"I've had enough!"

Boom!!!

Tsuchima crossed his arms to block, forcibly enduring a wind-style attack. He retreated explosively, using Flying Thunder God to teleport to an open area.

Susano'o: Complete Body!

Whoosh! A fully formed Susano'o rose to its feet!

The same black hue as Obito's, but wielded by Tsuchima.

"All shall perish!!!"

Zzz!

Hundreds of meters above the ground, Tsuchima glared down at the jumping Torii Gates, capturing them all in his sight.

The Susano'o spun its black magatama, hurling them into the air. Upon release, they split into eighteen pieces, targeting each Torii Gate!

Kamui Divine Authority: Eighteen Magatama!

Naruto formed a single-hand seal.

Torii Gate: Shadow Transmission!

Whoosh! From the Torii Gate beneath him, a shadow extended, connecting to the shadow of a magatama closing in on the ground. The magatama froze mid-air.

Naruto altered his seal.

Shadow Master: Wu Wei Seal!

Utilizing the shadow, Naruto cast the Wu Wei Seal, neutralizing the magatama's explosive force, rendering it a dud.

However, he couldn't handle the remaining seventeen magatama. They struck the remaining gates, warping them all into a separate dimension!

Obito's pressure reduced significantly. With a vicious expression, he formed a violent hand seal.

"Die!"

Fire Release: Twin Vortex Storm Dance!

Swish!!

Using Kamui in tandem with fire release, Obito unleashed a fiery storm that swept across the battlefield!

Boom boom boom boom boom boom!

Minato's shadow clones vanished in plumes of white smoke, leaving only Minato's lone body to face off against Obito!

Crunch! Crunch!

Tsuchima's fully formed Susano'o raised its dual blades—Ten Directions Divine Void Twin Swords. From within the forehead's crystalline block, Tsuchima glared menacingly at Naruto!

Crunch! The twin blades crossed overhead, charging for a devastating strike!

Tsuchima sneered coldly: "Perish!!!"

Ten Directions Divine Void: Twin Blade Style!

Boom!

As the blades descended, Naruto's left eye glowed intensely.

Earthen Command: Divine Edict!

He decreed: "Stop!"

Crunch!!

The descending twin blades froze mid-air, bound by an invisible force!

Tsuchima gasped: "What?!"

Boom!! The Torii Gate beneath Naruto launched upward like a high-caliber cannon.

Naruto commanded: "Amen, use that move!"

The Torii Gate replied: "Understood, Father!"

Crack! Crack! The second beam of the Torii Gate split in half, transforming into wooden hands that formed a seal.

Gate Style: Super Multiplication Technique!

Whoosh!!!

The Torii Gate rapidly expanded in mid-air, casting an enormous shadow as it descended upon Tsuchima's fully formed Susano'o.

Boom!!!!!!!!!!

As the gate crashed down, Naruto simultaneously formed a seal and pressed his hand against the beam.

Earth Release: Super Weighted Boulder Technique!

Rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble!!!

Tsuchima's fully formed Susano'o shattered into pieces, scattering across the sky!

"Damn it!!" Tsuchima flew backward, using Flying Thunder God to retreat to the ground.

Naruto's gaze grew deep: "Did I go a bit overboard? I intended to suppress him, but ended up breaking it. No matter—I have a move I've been eager to try."

Zzz!

Naruto's eyes glowed intensely.

Susano'o: Complete Body!
