--- Chapter 182 ---

"Grow." Yunlong's voice echoed through the battlefield.

Everyone raised their gazes to the skies and witnessed the meteor instantly destroyed into pieces by a gigantic golden pillar.

BOOM!

The explosion noise vastly echoed kilometers away, which could even be heard by people in the headquarters.

Uchiha Madara frowned slightly and looked at Yunlong with an attentive gaze like he was trying to find out who this person was.

"It's only the first meteor. What about the second one?" Uchiha Madara muttered while slightly hoping to see something interesting from Yunlong, who suddenly piqued his interest.

The second meteor followed afterward, but the golden pillar abruptly disappeared from their vision like there was no such thing in the skies.

Yunlong called his golden arrow and turned it into a golden sword, which he grasped lightly without any remorse.

Gulp!

The allied shinobi unknown swallowed their saliva nervously because they expected Yunlong to do something more ridiculous for some reason.

Yunlong calmly breathed, and an unknown white light suddenly surged out of his sword, which caused the samurai on the battlefield to be speechless.

Mifune, who's a master samurai, looked at Yunlong in the skies and silently murmured, "That's sword intent..."

Yunlong gently slashed down, and an awkward silence followed because the second meteor that was about to fall to the battlefield weirdly disappeared from their gaze.

"Unison Sword, Silence." Yunlong casually threw the golden sword away, which vanished into thin air.

He looked down at the battlefield and noticed every eye was staring at him intently, but surprisingly a powerful gaze full of curiosity came from Madara.

"Interesting." Uchiha Madara calmly stared at Yunlong. "Very Interesting."

"I don't know such a person who had a great mastery over sword exists in this world." He continued, which caused Yunlong to smirk a little.

They quietly stared at each other for a good one minutes, and Madara suddenly jumped up toward Yunlong, who also responded in the same manner.

BAM!

They launched a punch toward each other out of instinct, which caused a powerful shockwave to sweep over the area around them.

"I'll take care of Madara, and you guys will deal with ten tails," Yunlong commented.

The allied shinobi forces woke up from their shocks and realized they were still in the middle of the war, which caused Uchiha Obito to frown.

"You're Uchiha Izuna... The traitor." Uchiha Obito shouted angrily, which caused some people to become confused.

"Izuna?" Uchiha Madara looked at Yunlong with a weird expression.

"He's definitely not my brother."

"Well, I'm not your brother." Yunlong bluntly answered while grabbing Madara's armor and threw him to the ground.

Uchiha Madara rotated his body mid-air and landed on the ground without any worry, but Yunlong quickly teleported himself toward him.

Clank!

Yunlong's sword met Madara's Gunbai, and they frowned at each other. "Who are you... I've never seen a person like you in the clan?" Uchiha Madara asked.

"Defeat me, and I'll let you know." Yunlong kicked Madara away and formed a few hand signs.

"Fire Release: Dragon Explosion Jutsu." Yunlong spews out a roaring fire dragon toward Madara.

Roar!

The fire dragon roared and hit Madara's Gunbai, which caused it to lit in dim white light.

(An: I'll call Madara's war fan, Gunbai)

Uchiha Madara used his movement technique and appeared in front of Yunlong with incredible speed.

Bam!

He swung the Gunbai toward Yunlong and indifferently said, "Uchiha Reflection."

Ting~ BOOM!

A powerful explosion got directed toward Yunlong, but Uchiha Madara felt something was wrong.

"I also can do it." Yunlong slapped his hand-covered handkerchief onto Madara's stomach. "Uchiha Explosion..."

Ting~ BOOOM!

Uchiha Madara's stomach burst, and he got destroyed into pieces, but quickly went back to his original shape because he's an Edo Tensei, so such an attack won't kill him.

"Being an Edo Tensei really gives you an advantage, eh." Yunlong taunted slightly.

"How did you use Uchiha Reflection..?" Uchiha Madara returned to his perfect state and pointed his Gunbai toward Yunlong.

Yunlong shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Nah, that wasn't Uchiha Reflection. I only borrow the name."

"By the way, are you going to help Obito? It seemed he was in a tight spot." He continued, which made Madara slightly move his gaze to Obito.

Uchiha Obito has already surrounded by Hokages and a few more people, but Madara somehow didn't care about that.

"Madara!" Hashirama Senju suddenly landed in front of Madara and looked at him with a disappointed gaze. "What did you actually want to achieve?"

"You wouldn't understand, Hashirama." Uchiha Madara looked at his friend gravely. "This world needed its peace. With true peace, there would be no war. No one would get hurt. No one would get swallowed by hatred."

"When I launched my plan. Everyone in this world will attain true peace." He confidently continued.

"Madara, nothing good happened when you started this war, and only death awaited those shinobi after ten tails get out of control." Hashirama Senju silently replied, which caused Yunlont to chuckle.

"As expected." Yunlong looked at the confused Hashirama.

"First Hokage. What Madara said wasn't completely wrong." He calmly continued.

"Wake up to Reality, First Hokage"

"Nothing ever goes as planned in this accursed world." Yunlong raised his gaze to the skies.

"You gave other villages a chance for peace by giving them tailed beasts, but what happened next was inducing war between them."

"The longer you live, the more you will realize that the only things that truly exist are merely pain, suffering, and futility."

Yunlong looked at Madara and commented, "Everywhere you look in this world, wherever there is light, there will always be shadows."

Uchiha Madara closed his eyes and naturally added, "As long as there is a concept of winners, the defeated will also exist."

"The selfish intent of you who wanted to preserve fake peace only initiates wars."

"Look, Hashirama..." Uchiha Madara pointed his fingers toward Uchiha Obito. "He's a victim of the fake peace you wanted to preserve. Not only did he lose his loved one, but he also ended up with hatred for others."

"Hatred born in order to protect Love."

"Hashirama..."

"I want to sever this world fate... And create a world of only Victors, a world of only Love."

"I will create such a world with my own hands." Uchiha Madara raised his hand toward Hashirama, who had a complicated expression.

"You're blinded by your vision, Madara." Hashirama Senju firmly responded, which Madara reacted with a sigh.

Uchiha Madara shook his head and raised his other hand, activating his jutsu, which caused Uchiha Obito to groan in pain.

"ARRRRGGGGHHHH!" Uchiha Obito suddenly shrieked, which caught everyone around him off guard.

"Rinne Tensei no Jutsu."

Uchiha Obito's body quickly was covered by Black Zetsu, and he unconsciously formed hand signs matched with Madara's.

"I'll show you... Hashirama. The peace that I want to create." Uchiha Madara's body shone with dim white light, and Edo Tensei's body crumbled into dust.

"ARRRGGGHHHH!"

Uchiha Obito's hair has become pale white, and Uchiha Madara felt his entire body brimming with powerful energy.

Uchiha Madara moved his gaze to Yunlong and calmly offered, "Join me."

"Nope, I'm good." Yunlong casually responded, which caused Madara to laugh.

'I only feed your ego because I want to finish this trial faster after all.' Yunlong thought while observing Madara, who slowly radiated with a powerful life force.
