A rival once more!

Madara could feel it. He had stepped onto the 63rd floor and the tension that was held on this single floor was astounding. It was as if the dungeon itself was waiting for something.

It excited him, what did this place think could take down the great Madara Uchiha? He smiled as he jumped and swung his scythe, cutting off the head of a 15-meter-tall, polar bear.

He turned around and swung his fan, sending 2 more of the bears flying, he whipped out 2 shurikens and flung them, a loud boom was heard as they flew through the brains of the 2 large animals.

He touched the ground and immediately turned around, his brain screamed at him. He brought up his scythe but it was not fast enough as he was sent hurdling into a large snow mountain. A large crater was born into the side of the snowy mountain.

He quickly regained his equilibrium and leaped out of the crater, swinging his scythe forwards. A black sword met the scythe head-on.

The Udaues stood before him, the red and black gone, replaced by an ebony black, its body had shrunken even further but its power was overwhelming, and what had surprised him the most, was that he sensed chakra from it.

Madara's smile grew to a frightening width. His canines gleamed as his eyes spun.

Madara backed up quickly and made a few hand signs.

The Udaeus's eyes widened and it slammed its hands into the ground.

A 100-meter-tall wall of rock stood in the way of the impending fireball Madara had just sent.

It stood strong and Cadmus swelled in pride but the next thing it knew a lighting-enhanced fist made its way across his face. His neck snapped to the left as Madara rained blows upon him.

"You now have sentience, but you must learn how to fight Udaeus."

The Uchiha mockingly chuckled as a rock pillar came up from the ground separating him from the skeleton. Madara narrowed his eyes in confusion.

"MY NAME IS CADMUS!!!" The skeleton yelled in exertion as it sliced through its own rock pillar and made a gash along Madara's chest.

The boy laughed maniacally as he pulled his scythe off his back and threw it at Cadmus.

The skeleton masterfully deflected the blade, but the wind around the weapon changed as it wrapped around his feet.

Madara pulled the chain, tripping the monster and bouncing into the air. He wrapped the chain around his wrist and yanked it upwards bringing the former monster rex skywards. The scythe cutting at its ankles and distracting the monster.

Madara funneled lighting into the chain while he directed wind into the fan.

Cadmus screamed out in pain as the lighting wrapped around his person while the fan slammed him back into the ground. The chain loosened as Madara placed the scythe on his back once more.

The shock from a rock hitting Cadmus's spine sent him back into the fight as he watched the boy get ready to plunge a knee into his stomach.

He quickly slammed his palm into the ground, the rock swallowed him whole as he swam through the earth.

His senses tickled as he swung his sword to the right, it cut cleanly through the earth and met a scythe. The collision forced the 2 tunnels of rock to turn into a humongous crater.

Madara looked at his scythe and chuckled.

"That Tsubaki woman is really something"

"Are you commenting on women while we fight to the death?" Cadmus grit his teeth while Madara grinned further.

"If you want me to take this seriously you must take it up a notch mama's boy" Cadmus screamed in anger and Madara chuckled something under his breath

'Just like hashama' or something like that, but Cadmus didn't care as he cried out in anger.

"DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE ME, HUMAN!!!"

A flame swept over the black sword as an enormous wave of fire swept over the 2.

Madara chuckled

"Your wasting your Chakra Cadmus" The Udaeus screamed out in rage at the calm monotone voice.

All the flame turned inwards. large spikes of flame swam toward Madara. The Uchiha swung his blade upwards and kicked Cadmus in the stomach and slammed his hands into the ground.

A dome of earth surrounded Madara as the Flame drilled through its outer shell.

A black sword cut through the dome. Madara pulled his fan up and blocked but the power from the swing slammed him into the wall of his own making.

Madara flipped his fan to where the black sword was located and wrapped both hands around his fan.

With 1 enormous swing, flame and skeleton alike we're sent flying.

Cadmus caught himself and touched down before he hit the wall of the crater, but the next thing he knew his chin felt like it was crushed into powder.

Madara landed a bone-crushing knee upon his jaw. He pulled his scythe from his back and sliced into the skeleton's neck.

But when he cut into the bone, it turned into smoke and revealed a piece of rock.

Madara turned around to see Cadus behind him, kneeling on the ground, gasping for air, exhausted.

"I haven't even used substitution in the dungeon yet, so you did that on accident, how intriguing" One of the most fundamental jutsu in his homeworld was instinctively used by a "monster" how comedic.

Madara healed his chest as the Udaues stood once more.

His chest was stitched together halfway when a black sword inserted itself into his stomach of the boy.

Cadmus did not feel accomplished as the boy puffed into nothing. He turned around to see a heel connect with his jaw once more.

Madara swung his blade cutting off Cadmus's arm at the shoulder. Before he could scream Madara sent a sealess, silent lighting dragon.

It rammed into the Udaues, making the monster scream in pain.

Madara sprung forwards, his scythe coming to cut the head off the shoulders of the skeleton.

The Udaues clenched his teeth and roared. He jumped into the air, barely dodging the sickle coming from his head. He came crashing back down with an overhead swing.

Madara turned his body to the side easily dodging the angry swing and swung his fan once more. This time a wind blade was sent flying and the last arm of the skeleton dropped to the floor.

Madara was then hit by a pillar of earth from the ground.

His eyes widened as he stared at the roof.

'How had I not seen him mold any chakra, this is the second time now

Madara quickly tried to pull his fan up in defense of his body but it was too late as a gigantic kick sent him flying out of the crater.

Cadmus screamed in excitement and lept to end his foe.

Madara landed upright on the roof of the dungeon and turned around. He lazily swung his fan once more.

Catching the Udaues mid-jump, Madara almost chuckled at the naivety. The skeleton had gotten too excited and now it was over.

His hands moved at unknown speeds.

"LimeLight"

It was a technique that could only be used by 4 people, but again, he's Madara Uchiha.

An enormous lighting ball formed above their heads as Cadmus finally was able to catch himself from the wind blast.

But it was too late.

The ball shot toward Cadmus at lightning speeds (pun intended.)

The skeleton screamed out in pain as the blue bolts coursed through his body.

After the jutsu Cadmus lay on the ground, broken and defeated. The first ever level 9 monster defeated by a single person.

"When you are reborn again, I hope you get stronger, I had just started to have fun." Madara walked over to the skeleton, not healing his bruises since it was not worth the chakra. He still had to get out of the dungeon after all.

Cadmus stared at his rival with determination set in his eyes.

"You must run, the mother will do anything within all her power to end you"

Madaras's face turned solemn as his rival disappeared.

Then he chuckled, then started laughing, his solemn face turned insane in a moment, his black eyes wide as he gazed at the roof of the dungeon.

"COME FOR ME, SHOW ME HOW YOU WILL END THE GHOST OF THE UCHIHA!!"

Madara started to glow once more.
