Let Me Say Something Cool

"You guys..." Seeing Naruto and Sasuke suddenly appear, Madara looked genuinely surprised.

As far as he remembered, he had injured Naruto and forcibly controlled him to use Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique to revive him, so he should be dead by now. On top of that, he had also stabbed Sasuke in the heart.

What astonished Madara was on top of being alive and kicking, Naruto and Sasuke had also become stronger. Naruto attained Six Paths Sage Mode, and Sasuke had awakened the Rinnegan.

"Madara, your end has come," the cold and imposing Sasuke declared while holding his sword, looking confident in his victory.

"You should take a break, Nagasawa-san. Leave Madara to me and Sasuke," Naruto said to Nagasawa.

Nagasawa nodded and dispelled his Radiant Sun Mode before joining Kakashi in the spectator area.

He wasn't afraid that taking a break would lead to Naruto and Sasuke having a higher contribution to the battle. The system's description was clear: defeat Six Paths Madara and Kaguya Otsutsuki as the highest damage dealer. In other words, it meant winning while ensuring he was the highest damage dealer.

It didn't require him to have a greater impact than everyone combined, he just had to be the highest damage dealer among them. Having fight Madara for so long, taking a short break shouldn't be an issue.

After all, Naruto and Sasuke would need time to deal with Madara, especially when facing Madara with both Rinnegan.

"Heh, one awakened Rinnegan, and the other attained Six Paths Sage Mode. Is that the source of your confidence?" Despite facing two new formidable enemies, Madara remained calm.

"However, I possess both of those powers!" Madara clenched his fist and the debris around him were lifter purely because of his aura exploded.

"Sasuke, let's go!" Naruto didn't engage in further conversation with Madara. The Truth-Seeking Balls behind him turned into black rod that Naruto gripped tightly as he charged at Madara.

Unlike Naruto, Sasuke observed Madara using his Rinnegan.

Next to Madara were four identical and eerie clones.

Why call them eerie? Sasuke had two eyes; only one had evolved into Rinnegan. His Rinnegan could see those clones, but his Sharingan couldn't. To make things easier, Sasuke closed his Sharingan, leaving only the Rinnegan open.

After attaining Six Paths Sage Mode, Naruto was incredibly fast, reaching Madara in an instant. However, as fast as Naruto was, Madara's Shadows were equally fast. They instantly reached Naruto, blocking his attacks and restraining him at the same time.

"Chidori!" Sasuke quickly unleashed his commonly used Lightning Release, Chidori. However, unlike before, he incorporated it with his newly acquired power.

The Chidori infused with Six Paths power turned into black lightning.

Swish!

Sasuke used the unique ability of his Rinnegan, Amenotejikara, to swap positions with Naruto.

As a result, Sasuke was in front of Madara in an instant, and Naruto was freed from Madara's clutch.

Zzzz!

The seemingly powerful black lightning struck Madara directly, and the dark lightning coursed throughout Madara's body!

Thump!

Madara's Shadows moved again, taking the damage in Madara's stead, while another Shadow repelled Sasuke.

Madara commented, "Switching place, huh? It's indeed a convenient ability."

"I still have quite a few more surprises for you," Sasuke snorted coldly, exuding an air of superiority. His Rinnegan's power had more to offer than just switching positions with others.

He could also shift objects or people to another space in his surroundings.

Next, Naruto and Sasuke launched a combination attack. Sasuke used Amenotejikara to switch position with Madara the moment Naruto delivered a surprise attack at Sasuke. Even though Madara had both Rinnegan now, he was Naruto and Sasuke had the upper hand, causing Madara to take a considerable amount of damage.

At this moment, Nagasawa, who had absorbed a substantial amount of natural energy, stood up once again. If he didn't step in soon, he might not be able to be the highest damage dealer.

"I'll help you guys!"

Whoosh!

Intense golden flames covered Nagasawa's body, and he instantly entered the Radiant Sun Mode.

"Great, let's attack him together." Naruto's eyes gleamed as he swiftly created several Tailed Beast Rasenshurikens.

"Prepare to attack me." Sasuke quickly said as he rushed towards Madara.

Although the Amenotejikara was powerful, it only worked within a specific range.

Hearing Sasuke's words, Nagasawa understood Sasuke's plan. Without hesitation, he mustered his Chakra and raised the black sword he created with his Color of Arms Haki, ready to unleash his strongest strike.

"Blazing Sun!"

A large amount of golden flames constantly emerged around Nagasawa and was absorbed into the tip of the black sword. The golden flames kept gathering and finally formed a dazzling golden fireball.

The golden flame was extremely bright, illuminating the dark night and dyeing the entire battlefield golden.

Even though the golden flame kept coming out and merged into the golden fireball, the fireball did not get bigger; instead, it slowly shrank.

The golden fireball was constantly compressed until it was at the size of a human head. Although it was smaller in size, it wasn't less bright. In fact, it even became brighter.

Without hesitation, Madara instantly escaped by flying towards a higher place.

However, Naruto wasn't foolish. Naturally, he knew Madara wouldn't just wait as they attacked him. Three Tailed Beast Rasenshurikens that he had prepared in advance was thrown at Madara, blocking his escape route.

If Madara kept going at a straight line, he would get hit by Naruto's Tailed Beast Rasenshurikens.

Just as Madara was about to change course his original route and take advantage of the opportunity to attack the somewhat exhausted Naruto, Sasuke instantly switched Madara's position with a stone next to the God Tree.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Madara's attack struck the ground, causing massive destruction.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Naruto created numerous Shadow Clones, all rushing towards Madara.

At this moment, the power of Nagasawa's Blazing Sun had reached its peak.

Boom!

A loud sound echoed, and a slash resembling the scorching sun in the sky, was about to strike Madara down at any moment.

The dazzling golden light momentarily stunned Madara.

In the next moment, Madara did everything he could to call back his Shadows, but since they were preoccupied with Naruto's shadow clones, they had to deal with that first.

Madara realized that he had fallen into a predicament without realizing it.

Naruto and Sasuke blocked all of his possible escape routes, causing him unable to get away from Nagasawa's Blazing Sun!

Naruto had Minato's Flying Thunder God Kunai, and Sasuke had the power of Amenotejikara. Both would leave the area the moment the attack was close enough.

The decisive Madara acknowledged that he couldn't escape from Nagasawa's attack range in time. So, instead of attempting to run, he chose to defend using Truth-Seeking Balls and his Shadows.

Seeing Madara giving up on running and decided to focus on defense instead, Naruto and Sasuke swiftly unleashed their respective Ninjutsu at Madara.

In the end, right before Nagasawa's Blazing Sun that resembled the sun in the sky descended, Minato used Flying Raijin to take Naruto away, while Sasuke used Amenotejikara to leave the area.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A massive explosion echoed, and the intense golden flames from the Blazing Sun burst forth.

Golden! Hot! Flame!

Those three words filled everyone's minds on the battlefield.

The violent golden flames unleashed from the golden fireball rapidly raised the temperature across the entire battlefield. The dazzling fire pierced all the way through the clouds!

In the center of the golden fireball, a huge crater had formed. Everything in the surroundings apart from the enormous God Tree was gone, all consumed by the flames.

After the impact of such a powerful attack, even the God Tree snapped and collapsed, with its trunk showing signs of being charred.

As the smoke cleared, Nagasawa noticed Madara suffered severe burns all over his body.

"I didn't expect he still survived that. It seems my power is still lacking," Nagasawa thought as he rubbed his chin.

The last time he used the Supernova Mode, a single Blazing Sun instantly killed Madara. This time, Madara only sustained heavy injuries, despite Naruto and Sasuke's assistance.

"Damn, there are three of them," The seriously injured Madara frowned. He was confident in defeating any of the three, but facing all three simultaneously was a bit overwhelming.

'Absorb the God Tree. Only then can you gain complete power and obtain an immortal body.' Suddenly, this sentence popped up in Madara's mind.

Madara instinctively looked towards the fallen God Tree that Nagasawa's attack brought down.

Above the God Tree, the once tightly closed buds had blossomed, revealing the red nine tomoe Rinnegan.

At this moment, the unassuming and somewhat dirty-looking tree seemed like a saving grace for Madara. Without a hint of hesitation, Madara ignored the pain he felt swiftly rushed to the God Tree and devoured the entire tree.

"What's Madara up to?" Naruto was puzzled by Madara's actions and asked Nagasawa beside him.

"Perhaps he's getting desperate. Now he's resorting to eating trees," Nagasawa joked.

It was evident that he was in a good mood.

Madara began devouring the God Tree, which meant that Infinite Tsukuyomi would be activated soon. Activating Infinite Tsukuyomi meant that Black Zetsu would gouge out Madara's heart soon, signifying Kaguya's resurrection.

Nagasawa shouldn't have to worry about Madara anymore. The next step was to make sure that he dealt the highest damage in the upcoming battle against Kaguya, and he should be good to go.

Nagasawa didn't really care whether he would succeed or not in this attempt. If he succeeded, Tobirama template would fully integrate in his body, giving him knowledge about Forbidden Technique.

If he failed, he could always come back later after simulating Mount Myōboku Sage Mode to the level of Great Sage and experiment again.

As Madara devoured the God Tree, his injuries instantly healed, and he gave off a more powerful aura.

"Hahaha, I'm as good as won. Now I am immortal!" Madara laughed maniacally.

"Madara, you're celebrating too soon. We're still here."

Seeing Madara ignored them and start laughing hysterically, Naruto felt upset. With the Six Paths powers bestowed upon them, even if Madara was indeed immortal, they could still seal him!

"Let him laugh a bit longer. We should respect the elderly. After all, he doesn't have much time left. If he doesn't laugh now, he might never get the chance," Nagasawa still joked around.

"Hmph!" Seeing Nagasawa taunt him, Madara coldly snorted but didn't rush to attack Nagasawa.

After devouring the God Tree, he not only gained immortality but also Rinnegan with nine tomoe, which was crucial for activating Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Rather than dealing with Nagasawa and Naruto first, Madara preferred to immediately activate the Infinite Tsukuyomi. This was a plan he had prepared for decades. He went through great length and even cut ties with Hashirama for the sake of Infinite Tsukuyomi.

"Chibaku Tensei!"

Madara clasped his hands together, summoning a massive black sphere that rapidly split into dozens of smaller black spheres. These spheres sucked the rocks nearby and transformed into floating meteorites.

"There are so many of them, and they're bigger than before," Naruto commented based on experience.

Dozens of colossal meteorites was floating in the sky, ready to crash down to the ground at any moment, causing a commotion among the Allied Shinobi Forces.

Previously, it took everything Ōnoki got to stop a single meteorite. Now, there were dozens of them in the sky, and they were much bigger.

However, as the meteorites increased in number and size, Naruto and his allies' strength had also significantly improved.

Sasuke summoned Full Body-Susanoo, and with a strike of its sword, he sliced one of the meteorites instantly.

Naruto once again created Tailed Beast Rasenshuriken, which could destroy seven or eight meteorites.

Nagasawa's compressed air blade also effortlessly destroyed the meteorites. Seeing this scene, the Allied Shinobi Forces' morale rose!

However, what they didn't know was that Madara never expected these meteorites to be effective. His intention was merely to stall Nagasawa and Naruto.

Madara opened the red Rinnegan on his forehead and initiated Infinite Tsukuyomi. Instantly, nine tomoe patterns appeared on the red moon, which was the pattern of Madara's Rinnegan

Blinding white light then enveloped the entire world.

Upon witnessing this scene, Sasuke's expression quickly changed. He rushed to Nagasawa and others, using Susanoo's wings as a shield to protect those around him.

The Shinobi who were caught in the white light had the patterns of Rinnegan in their eyes. Tree branches emerged from the ground, wrapping around them. Even if they tried to stop the branches, it was futile; the branches seemed to grow endlessly until the Shinobi was completely ensnared.

After Madara activated Infinite Tsukuyomi, the entire world, except for those protected by Sasuke's Susanoo and the ones summoned through Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation, fell under its influence and were caught in the branches.

"Ah, so you manage to resist Infinite Tsukuyomi?" Seeing that Sasuke and others were not affected, Madara was somewhat surprised but quickly regained his composure. After all, Sasuke also possessed Rinnegan.

Madara landed on the ground, ready to declare victory and then finish off Nagasawa and the others. However, he failed to notice that Black Zetsu had silently arrived behind him, ready to have a heart-to-heart conversation.
