24 Chapter 24

Three shinobi were in a mountainous region, a small stream flowing down from the top of the mountain separating two shinobi from the third. The shinobi on his own on one side was sitting on an ice throne with his legs crossed, coldly staring at the other two shinobi clad in red battle armour.

"Hashirama, Madara. Impressive of you both to find me, reckon I wasn't really hiding my location," the shinobi on the throne calmly said. "Did it ever dawn on you both I deliberately brought you both here? You couldn't find me for seven months and then like some miracle you were both able to find me, down to my exact location. I don't think you're both stupid right?"

They both frowned, knowing the implications of what Indra was saying, he led them to his location and they didn't know why.

"Where is Mito?" Hashirama angrily asked, having lost patience with Indra's pseudo villainous speech.

"Tell me, Hashirama, how did it feel when you ordered your clan to wipe out mine? Do you think the death of your beloved fiancee would hurt you just as much as watching my clan members getting killed did?"

At this point, the chakra the both of them were releasing could be felt tens of kilometres away. Madara looked on impassively, before putting his hand on the shoulder of his friend. "Calm down Hashirama, I'm certain he's just baiting you. Madara whispered to him, stopping his friend from doing something stupid. "Don't forget what he said. As long as we kill him, finding Mito would be easy."

"Uchiha Madara," Indra slightly turned his head, addressing the Uchiha clan leader. "Weren't you both enemies? Wait!! don't tell me you both created an alliance just to kill a 13-year-old boy. That's just sad!!" Indra said, taunting them further.

Hashirama, unable to listen to Indra anymore attacked first, Madara right behind him. Indra impassively stared at their rapidly approaching forms, not bothered enough to get up from his ice throne.

*Boom*

A massive explosion rang out the moment they came in contact with Indra, the shockwave spreading out far and wide, dust rising due to the shockwaves, blocking the visions of the trio. When the dust finally settled, Indra could be seen still seated on the ice throne, ice from the throne formed around his sides blocking the sword of Hashirama, and Madara's Kama.

A smirk appeared on Indra's face, as vines shoot out of the ground wrapping around the bodies of Hashirama, and Madara. Ice from the throne slowly spread on their bodies completely sealing them in it.

"That can't be all you both have to offer," Indra hauntingly said to the frozen bodies of his current opponents.

*Boom*

Indra disappeared as a dark blue chakra sword from Madara strikes his throne completely obliterating it.

The trio engaged in taijutsu, with Indra proving to be stronger than them both almost immediately. Indra ducked under the arm of Madara, punching him in the ribs and sending him flying. Hashirama tried to capitalise on the attack on Madara, he swung his sword at Indra but the sword shrunk as it was about to make contact. Indra used the momentary pause caused by surprise to send Hashirama flying with a kick to his face.

A wooden clone separated from Indra's body, walked to where the weapons of Hashirama and Madara were, picked it up, and threw it to them before turning into a block of wood.

"Make this interesting," Indra said, summoning his weapon from his inventory.

The ground cracked where Indra launched from as he finally became proactive, attacking Hashirama and Madara first. With his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan activated, he appeared in front of Madara with his sword already coming down on the Uchiha shinobi. Madara was barely able to react, bringing his gunbai up to defend, the force of the blow sending him flying. Ice spears formed behind Indra quickly heading towards the form of Madara. The ice spears disappeared as Indra shrunk them making them invisible to the naked eyes. Madara suddenly brought his gunbai to his front as the ice spears appeared right in front of him, he wasn't quick enough but he managed to deflect some of them while the other ice spears found home in his body.

'Hmm, so he's able to see it and react too, albeit barely.'

Chakra rods came out of Indra's neck, blocking the sword of Hashirama. "Did you think I wasn't watching you," Indra said to the stunned Hashirama.

Chakra rods appeared in the body of Hashirama, as he wasn't able to react on time due to the close distance. In the few minutes the fight had encompassed, Indra had demolished the clan-heads of both the Senju and Uchiha clan. Although the fight was just getting started.

Madara slowly got up and then brought his hands together, releasing a massive amount of chakra. A dark blue chakra quickly gathers around him, forming a perfect susanoo with Madara in a box-like structure settled on the forehead of his susanoo. The susanoo had four arms, with two of the arms formed at the bottom of its wings. Its head gained a long tengu nose and two lines running down from its mouth to its chin area, as well as hair which is tied up at the sides.

Hashirama made his hand seal, 'Wood Style: Wood Golem Jutsu'. Hashirama created an enormous battle avatar, a humanoid creature with an oni-like face and a wooden dragon wrapped around its torso, with him standing on the nose of the creature.

They both stood atop their 100m behemoths, looking down at Indra like gods. A smile crept up Indra's face as he releases his chakra, creating a greater shockwave that affected the 100m behemoths. "The Susanoo and the wood golem jutsu, so you both aren't playing around anymore. Madara, let me show you the true power of your Uchiha clan dojutsu."

'Susanoo'

A 250m pale blue, almost white Susanoo forms around Indra completely dwarfing the sizes of both Madara's susanoo and Hashirama's wood golem even if they were stacked on each other. Indra's susanoo had two harpoon-like weapons held tightly in both arms with pale blue chakra chains joined at the handle, wrapping around the arms of the susanoo. The harpoon-like weapon could be joined together forming a double-sided spear.

Indra twirled both harpoon-like weapons with the susanoo arms, sending it hurtling towards Madara and Hashirama. Madara raised his susanoo sword to block but the harpoon snaked past the susanoo sword, wrapping around Madara's susanoo. Hashirama wasn't so lucky as his golem had just its fist and the serpentine dragon on its torso. Hashirama did try to block with the golem's arm, but the harpoon wrapped around the arm of the golem, then digging into its arm, sending broken wood bits flying. Indra then yanked the chain, sending the 100m behemoths to the floor, destroying the mountain range in the process.

The battle between gods raged on for ten hours, destroying the terrain alongside countless mountains dotting the landscape of the Land of Lightning. The battle dragged on for tens of metres, craters hundreds of metres deep artificially created due to the clash between each combatant. Various crevices formed where the massive sword of a susanoo struck the ground, mountains split in two with rubbles where some mountains had been located. The entire terrain would never recover from the devastation it endured, the land would forever be scarred.

This epic battle between gods ended with a clear winner, Hashirama and Madara bloodied on the ground, unconscious due to the strain caused by the battle they just had. Indra hunched above their forms in a tattered attire, breathing somewhat heavily with about 40% of his chakra remaining, his entire demeanour and appearance different from the usual collected one.

Indra slowly floated up to the sky, looking down at the broken terrain, and the devastation their battle caused He brought his hands together and released his chakra, three ice statues slowly formed. The statue in the middle was of Indra in his usual robe, Hashirama, and Madara at his sides facing him, draped in a shinobi battle armour. The statue of Hashirama and Madara made the seal of confrontation, and Indra's statue had a gunbai strapped to its back and a sword held in his left hand and its right hand down at its side. The three statues were over 300m high and completely made of solid ice the would not melt, nor can it get destroyed by any shinobi not as strong as the current Indra.

'My own Valley of the End, how I wish my parents could see me now,' Indra thought, faking a tear.

In the future, this place would be known as ...

"To think these inferior creatures weren't able to weaken you," A regal voice rang out behind Indra.

Indra turned, looking at the man in a dark cloak that had been standing right behind him without him noticing, "Who are you?" he asked, a massive frown marring his face.

.............

[A/N:- Fight wasn't really that expansive, I might have them fight again in the future when they're both stronger. For anyone wondering why Indra made the statue, although I haven't shown it much, the Mc's personality disorder should be somewhat clear to people that know what the behavioural patterns are, and I did state it in the prologue. Addressing it before anyone one goes, oh! this is so ooc!!!

Anyways, I can't think of name for where Indra fought Hashirama and Madara, if you can think of one, drop in the comments. Ja ne!!]
