I do not own Naruto or Highschool DxD
Madara and Lucifer stared at each other down for a few seconds. The severe tension the two of them were giving each other was enough to cut mountains in half. Madara's Sharingan was beaming with the intensity that he was ready to see where Lucifer would go the moment he made a move. Lucifer took this chance to get ready by exposing his twelve Angel wings. "What are you doing over there? Aren't you going to make a move?" Lucifer asked.
Madara smiled like some lunatic with his massive plastered smile. In a blink of an eye, Madara teleported to Lucifer's spot where the two gripped each other's hands. They both headbutted each other with their eyes glowing a bright red. Madara applied all of his strength into this tug-o-war he was having with him. At the same time, the both of them tried to knee each other in the gut, which failed miserably for the both of them.
"This can't be all your strength, you fucking bastard!" Lucifer yelled out before exploding with mass amounts of magic power around him.
Madara widened one of his eyes. "Kamui." Madara began to disappear before materializing further away from Lucifer's location.
Lucifer charged at Madara recklessly with a light sword in his hand. Madara used his truth-seeking orbs to block the attack that made his light swords bounce off the truth-seeking orbs. When he saw an opening, he didn't hesitate to take it. Madara waved his hand around in many directions that caused his truth-seeking orbs to hit him. He was making different shapes and unique forms with the orbs that were hitting every bit of him.
Blood was being shot out of his body with every hit. This was pissing him off before he shot his hand forward where a beam emission was shot out, which made Madara use his orbs as a protective bubble to block the attack.
When the attack hit him, the bubble he created instantly shattered into a million pieces. Lucifer appeared out of the blue with a deadly strike, which Madara was able to see with his Sharingan. When he saw that he was open for an attack, he drove his fist right into his oblique. But expecting him to be shot down towards the ground, Lucifer backhanded him across the face that sent his blood flying out his mouth.
Lucifer quickly raised his hand that started to generate a cursed blood-red color before a light spear was formed. The moment it was created, it was sent straight towards his opponent.
Madara moved out of the way in time before the spear hit the ground and created an explosion close to the attack he sent out against Hades.
This made the Uchiha smile to see that a dangerous opponent was making his blood boil with excitement. When he was clear of Lucifer, he raised his finger before spewing out some words. "Sage Art: Yin-Yang Release: Infinity Beam." A black and purple beam was shot out from the tip of his fingers. The beam cut anything in half with whatever it came in contact with.
The beam dissipated when it hit a solid object.
Once again, Lucifer came rushing in with two light swords in his hands.
Madara used two of the orbs to create two swords. The both of them clashed with their swords as it was another tug-o-war situation. "Do you know what pisses me off the most, Madara?"
"You have time to talk during our battle? I can see why you're the biggest bastard of the Devil race. You love to spew out just how great you are during fights like this. Is this what you also did when you fought against Michael?"
This made Lucifer even angrier. "That cocky attitude of yours is the reason why humans will always remain the same no matter what era we enter in," Lucifer said while applying more strength.
"If that what makes you mad, then let me tell you what makes me annoyed... The fact that I'm having to fight against a mere child because of their opinion was squashed by his father and brother. You want to complain, then do it somewhere else. Stop crying me a river, you glorified bastard. This is a fight where the strongest man comes out as a victor, not some lousy child. You see... I'm not even using my greatest potential because I want to test the waters with you. But I see I must take it up a notch if I want to put you in the ground permanently."
With their clash, Madara's eyes began to spin before they were shifting into his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. Lucifer saw the change in his eyes before backing away.
"Running away as always." Madara nonchalantly said while closing both of his eyes.
Something felt off for Lucifer. He was feeling a power build-up that was spiking beyond human limits. "How is this even possible? How can a human generate such magic power?"
"Whoever said I was human? The moment after my death, I have become something far greater than a human. Last time, my potential was unimaginable, but now... My power can't even be scaled compared to my past self."
Lucifer shot a hail of light bullets in a scatter-shot way.
"Sink into the depths of eternal pain and suffering. Amaterasu." Madara's left eye shot wide open as blood began to slide down his cheek while a black flame was shot out. The flame engulfed the light bullets.
The Morning Star dodged out of the way before exploding into another fit of rage. "You want to talk about pain and suffering? Then let me show you the true meaning of those words." Lucifer began to generate light energy in his right hand while generating the dark arts in his left.
Fusing the two powers, he constructed a large ball of both light and dark. The large ball of magic power was thrown the moment it was charged up. Lucifer snapped his fingers before thousands of light spears appeared around him. Thrusting his hand forward, the light spears began to accelerate that followed the ball of magic.
Madara summoned both arms of the Susano'o to stop the ball, which he managed to catch. Lucifer raised a finger where a magic beam was shot that hit the ball. When the beam came into contact with the ball, an explosion was set off that obliterated everything in that general area. The light spears that were following the ball of magic all exploded when they reached a certain distance.
Chain explosions were being set off all around Madara that lit up the sky like fireworks.
The smoke didn't clear up before Madara rushed out and grabbed Lucifer's face. He flew across the sky for a while until he smashed his whole body against a cliff. When he slammed him against the cliff, he didn't bother releasing him. With his free arm, Madara pulled one of his truth-seeking orbs to shove it within The Devil's chest. He shot his hand forward to puncture a deep hole in his chest.
Lucifer's one eye that wasn't covered up glowed until it shot a beam that made Madara back off. "Impressive... Most Impressive. You are the first human to ever push me like this. But this isn't you. Stop holding back already and show me the Madara that I know. Let me see those sinister and merciless eyes of yours. Not these below-average ones. Bring out the Madara that the world fears, not the one who holds back."
Madara's expression didn't shift in the slightest. He was starting to get annoyed by his attitude. He was always on some high horse all the time. Things weren't going as he planned, but he understood that beggars can't be choosers. "Let's make this dance the last one for you to remember." Closing his eyes, he began to generate some power within them before slowly opening them up where he revealed his Rinnegan eyes.
Lucifer felt chills go down his spine. He was now standing in front of the Uchiha he has heard and known about.
"Now... This fight can truly b-"
"Whoever told you to speak, you bastard? Almighty Push." Madara sent out a catastrophic wave of air pressure that ripped and tore reality itself with both the powers of infinity and sage. Lucifer was blasted away at mach ten speeds.
Lucifer's bones would have been shattered to pieces, but being connected with the Horsemen sustained him. Recovering from the attack, he felt his body numb for a couple of seconds. When he stabilized himself, he instantly hurled over and threw up a pint of blood. "That fucking human... Hehehehe... You showed yours, so I will show you mine."
Lucifer flew up into the sky before his aura alone changed the color of the sky. His dark aura engulfed the remains of the plains that burned everything into nothingness.
With one of his hands, an unholy amount of magic power was being charged up that was hotter than all of the known stars in the universe. Madara widened his eyes when he realized what this attack was meant for. He wasn't going to try and kill him, but he was going to destroy everyone who was below them. He was charging up an attack that was going to annihilate every soul in the Underworld.
"You bastard... Your fight is with me, not anyone else." Madara said before flying a bit away. When he got far enough, he raised his dragon hand where all of his truth-seeking orbs began to hover above his hand and were spinning in an extremely rapid motion.
Lucifer began to dive deeper within his dark arts. "A world of pain, a world of suffering, a world of endless sin is the only world that humans can only reside within. Dark Ritual Arts: Inscriptions of Ruination!" Lucifer unleashed a beam like no other towards the battlefield, but Madara was able to charge up enough power of his own to let out an attack of his own.
"Sage Art: Yin-Yang Release: Neos Thunder Wave!" From the center of the spinning truth-seeking orbs, a purple, and white light was expanding before it shot out like a cannon. The two attacks reached one another until a super nova-like blast split the entirety of the Underworld into many sectors, provinces, and prefectures. Half of the fighting force was turned to microscopic atoms. The ones who did survive were severely injured with internal bleeding and missing limbs.
Lucifer had an expression of a victor while Madara remained with a serious one.
"You are a monster like how the books describe you. No wonder why your father locked you up for all of eternity. He should have ripped your heart out instead. You killing half of your army was a mistake that I will gladly exploit. Humanity has the upper hand now after that failed attempt at wiping out my army." Madara pointed out.
"What's this? Is the great Lord Madara starting to lose his intellectual prowess? Why don't you think why I did such a thing in the first place?"
"What are you getting at?"
"This battle we are having was nothing more than a mere setup for a much larger grand opening."
Madara let him ramble on to see where he was going with this.
"Do you even understand what Armageddon even is? It means the end of reality itself. That was supposed to be reserved between me and Michael. But with how things turned out, I guess you were the next best thing. From the very start, I have set, watched, and guided every ounce of choice that anyone made. You see, Madara... The reason why I went so far as to kill both my people and yours was to create a higher chance of victory for me." Lucifer continued.
"Higher chance of victory? You must be more delusional than I thought."
"Let me show you then," Lucifer called out into the voids of the Underworld in a language that Madara has never heard before.
Not long has passed before the Horsemen of Death appeared beside Lucifer. When Madara saw this, his eyes widened when he realized what he was about to do.
"Now, Death... Defy the rules and shatter the balance within this reality. Corrupt the natures and laws that my father has created and placed within this universe. Bring the darkness out and engulf the light. With my cultivated knowledge of the dark arts, defile the rules of death and return those who have passed and make them submit to my command. Plunge the world into eternal darkness and savagery." Lucifer ordered Death.
The Horsemen of Death expunged his power by sapping off of Lucifer and his brothers. With his magic running rampant, the people who have perished not too long ago began to resurrect under the command of Lucifer.
Madara has seen how much the balance of life and death was being manipulated. The perverse nature of breaking the concept of life and death sickened him. Those who were put to rest were now living in an eternity of suffering under the command of a child who didn't like his father's creation.
This sickness he has seen from the time he lived in his world to the world he was in need to be uprooted and eviscerated from the plains of existence.
"What's wrong, Madara? Can't accept this reality? Isn't this what humans want? A life where they can never die? A life where they can enjoy the pleasures of sin and debauchery? Don't worry about it. Once I'm done with this world, I'll erase the existence of humanity and the legend of the great Madara Uchiha. You will be nothing more than a ghost of the past. Great Red and Ophis will join you in the afterlife when I'm finished with this world."
Madara covered his eyes before letting out a laugh. "I see... I completely understand now. This world is far worse than the one I came from. Why can't there ever be a life of forgiveness and happiness? Is such a world that distasteful in the eyes of the sick, delusional, and prideful? Reality is often disappointing, I won't deny that, but enforcing a reality of pain, suffering, and eternal darkness is a reality even the likes of you will tire of when there is nothing left for you to do. You see, you can destroy and stop me for a while, but you can't erase me. My legacy, dream, and philosophy will live on through infinity."
"Look at that attitude of yours. Is there anything that will make you shake in your boots? Even in a situation like this, you are remaining calm and collected. You must not love anything or anyone because no person would be able to go this far without breaking down at some point. Tell me, what is driving this campaign of yours?"
"Instead of answering that, why don't you answer this for me. When a man learns to love, he must bear the risk of hatred. Who did you love so much that made you like this? Was it a lover? A brother? A sister? Or... Was it your father?"
Lucifer lost his joyful expression. His eyes were like piercing daggers from how intense his gaze was at the Uchiha.
"You think you can try and change me? Using my dead father against me won't get you anywhere. Whatever you're trying to do, it won't work. I'm winning this war that you have started. Life and death mean nothing anymore, so no matter what you do, I will always be one step ahead of you."
Madara formed an angry expression. "Remove that ridiculous fantasy out of your head. Thinking of victory this early are thoughts of delusional grandeur. Great Leaders who think like that tend to destroy themselves from how cocky they start to get from thinking of an early victory."
"Then why don't you drift within the voids of purgatory!" Lucifer blasted out a vortex of both light and dark magic.
This attack caused the Uchiha to fly backward while avoiding the vortex of intoxicating magical particles.
Before Madara could even realize it, Lucifer appeared before him where he gave him an uppercut of a lifetime. When he was sent into the air, he recovered by doing a backflip in the air, to which he instantly responded with an attack of his own. "Limbo." Four invisible clones materialized before all four clones drove their feet into Lucifer's gut.
When Lucifer got hit, it felt like a rocket hit him at point-blank range. There wasn't any time to recover from the attack as his body was shot towards the ground.
The ground caused him to have whiplash after being slammed against the ground forcefully.
Lucifer let out a growl before saying something to himself. "This damn trick again."
All four clones landed beside Lucifer before they slammed their fists against the ground that sent him into the air. The moment he was airborne, the clones dropped to a hand where they all extended their feet out, which was another version of an uppercut, but they used their feet instead. Instead of being shot down at incredible speeds, he was sent straight to Madara at the same speed.
"Let's see how your visions of grandeur go against this." Madara began to move his arms clock and counterclockwise. Afterimages of his arms were seen as they were in motion before both of his arms faced twelve and six o'clock. He closed the distance with his hands as they were now wrist to wrist. The truth-seeking orbs that were floating behind him began to combine into one big orb.
The orb appeared in the palms of his hand that started to spin like a saw blade. When the attack was ready to be fired, Madara used his magic pool to power up this attack to the maximum.
"Sage Art: Yin-Yang Release: Dragon Thunder!" All the known elements were generated into a single focal point of the attack, which was blasted into a beam-like form that shattered the sound barrier.
Lucifer had no chance of blocking this onslaught of an attack. All he was able to do was construct a magic shield to take most of the attack, but that effort failed the moment he tried to do it.
The blast ruptured many organs within Lucifer's body the instant it made contact with him.
Lucifer was sent back to the ground once again, but with countless amounts of broken bones and ruptured organs. Madara noticed that he was still alive after dishing out something devastating as that last attack. It didn't matter to him in the slightest, so he constructed a javelin with the truth-seeking orbs. He lined up his target before throwing his hand forward.
Before the javelin could be thrown, Madara's right arm was sliced off.
Madara quickly spun around to the new aggressor, but before he could attack the individual, he saw that there was no one around him.
The Uchiha's attention diverted to Lucifer where he saw an individual next to him. "What a cheeky one," Madara said.
"Be careful..." Ophis blurted out.
"Who is that guy? I didn't even sense him behind me."
"That's Samael."
"So the other bastard son who defied his father's orders has finally shown himself."
"Don't forget that he can immobilize you in an instant. you're lucky his blood didn't get on you after that last attack."
"Two abominations with unique abilities stand before me. This sure is an interesting turn of events." Madara chuckled before his dragon arm regrew itself with the power of Hashirama's cells inside of him.
"Sage Art: Shadow Style: Thunder Blast." Madara thrust his hands forward where a massive purple electrical current was discharged out of his fingers. The electricity looked as if it was some kind of thunderstorm from how ferocious the lightning was.
Samael took most of the attack, which tormented him with how powerful the electrical current was. Blood began to drip out of his mouth with every passing second that spiked the amount of blood loss.
Madara stopped his assault when a light spear came flying past him. "Pulling off more sneak attacks? I'm surprised you can still fight even in a state like that?"
When he stopped attacking, Samael relocated behind Madara again, but his attack was stopped by his four limbo clones. Madara didn't bother to face him as his attention was towards Lucifer. "I'm glad you showed yourself. I wasn't going to start looking for you after I have killed your brother." Madara declared.
The Horsemen of Death restored Lucifer's figure while Madara was busy with Samael. When he was fully healed up, every corner and crevice of Lucifer's body began showing his veins. His aura exceeded his very limits as magic was all over the place. "I... I tried to play nice with you... But... A human who could damage me... Like this... Is unforgivable." Lucifer's eyes flared up before the rage inside of him exploded. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" A blood-curdling angelic scream that was mixed with demonic was heard throughout all the realms.
Lucifer's voice shifted into something that didn't sound like anything anyone has ever heard. "Your way of life will end with your pathetic legacy. I'll show you the true meaning of what the Prince of Darkness and the Lightbringer can do." Lucifer's twelve wings were different now. On his right, his Angel wings remained, but on the left side of his body, he had Devil wings. He was fully embracing what he was.
"Satanic Ritual Arts: Dawn of the Morning Star." Lucifer's voice echoed throughout the field as the attack was sent out.
Madara's eyes widened when he saw a brightly burning star fly towards him before unpacking itself and creating a supernova explosion that lit up the entirety of the underworld.
Scene Break
Five Minutes Earlier
Explosions from all over the area blinded the battlefield in various amounts of shapes, forms, and colors. When the people who were fighting for Madara's cause saw that he was battling Lucifer was a sight to see. Everyone was filled with joy to see their leader with a fighting conviction like no other. But what stood out to them the most wasn't the fact that he was fighting without giving up, but the appearance he had.
Seeing how everything about him changed was what surprised them. In their eyes, it seemed as if he has truly transcended into the realm of God.
The two people to experience the insanity that Madara and Lucifer have been unleashing were Raynare and Kalawarner. They were close to the main event with the chaos not far from them.
They wanted to support Madara from the back, but they were occupied with one of the Horsemen. After what Lucifer did to his and Madara's soldiers was messed up. Eventually, they found out why he did such a thing to his men as it was a setup for a much larger reveal. Death has created a larger army for Lucifer, but it was now twice the size that they previously had.
"Can you even get a grip of what is going on here?" Raynare asked.
"That's a question everyone would like to know. Lord Madara and Lucifer are tearing apart pieces of reality. The Dimensional Gap will soon be opened up if they continue on this insanity." Kalawarner explained.
Raynare and Kalawarner were back to back while fighting off the undead. The training they had in the past has opened up new windows of opportunity for them. They were no longer those low-level Fallen Angel's that worked for Kokabiel back in the day. They rose from the ashes from weakness and blindness to respectable and refined Fallen Angel's. They were no longer those two winged crows that everyone called them as both of them had leveled up from two wings to six wings.
"That's how fierce the battle is? They are shredding reality itself from trading blows left and right?"
Kalawarner used her light spear to cut down a squad of undead troops into dust.
Raynare on the other hand was using the knowledge she has learned over the months when she was with Madara. Dual-wielding two light swords, she was flying by every undead soldier while slashing them one by one that made them evaporate into the sky. With the power they had, they were nothing compared to the Horsemen of Death. These soldiers were nothing more than a cakewalk for them.
Their quest to hold back the army of the undead was squashed when a Horsemen arrived in front of them. Raynare and Kalawarner regrouped when they felt a nasty aura arrive within their vicinity. "You think this could be our biggest achievement yet if we manage to win?" Kalawarner asked while readying another light spear.
"Killing a Horsemen would mean something much bigger, Kalawarner. This isn't a simple matter because this is one of Lucifer's Generals. The Horsemen of Famine..." Raynare said with caution.
Famine grabbed his whip along with his spear, which signified that he was ready for combat. Raynare and Kalawarner understood that fighting a Horseman alone would be suicide. With the both of them having six wings, they totaled up to twelve when they worked together. They had a higher chance of fighting off someone strong if they managed to work together with precise planning.
"You want us to make the first move, or should we wait until he makes it?" Kalawarner curiously asked.
Raynare charged him that showed Kalawarner her response, so she too followed suit.
With Raynare's sword and Kalawarner's spear, they got close to him where they tried to hit him from different angles, but Famine spun his whip around him that made them back off instantly.
Without warning, Famine stopped spinning his whip around before slamming it down on the ground that erupted the ground. Dust was formed from the ground that erupted, which made their visibility reduce.
The two Fallen Angel's flew up into the sky to regain their visibility, but a whip managed to wrap around Kalawarner's leg before she was pulled back down.
Raynare halted her movement before throwing her swords away. Clapping her hands together, a ball of light formed where she threw it at the direction of the whip's other end where Famine had his grip on it.
Famine couldn't block the attack, so he had to let go of the whip to dodge the attack.
Kalawarner freed herself from the clutches of the Horseman. She retaliated by throwing her spears at him as they zeroed in on him, but Famine slashed the air with a ferocious amount of evil intent that caused a veil of darkness to block the spears from hitting him.
"That son of a bitch..." Kalawarner cursed.
"I haven't seen you this riled up ever since we worked with Kokabiel."
"This is a Horsemen that we're fighting against, so would you prefer we go back and work for someone like that again?" Kalawarner asked while tightening her muscles up.
"Don't get me started on that... We didn't achieve anything when we were with him. Look at us now, we obtained newfound power along with new ranks. We're almost at Cadre Class if we continue on this route."
Kalawarner looked at her surroundings to see if she could use anything to her advantage against Famine. "That's good to know, but I'm out of ideas at the moment, do you got anything in mind?" Kalawarner asked.
Raynare scoffed in annoyance. "If we can only hit him from the back while he is being distracted from the front."
"That's what I have been trying to do, but his combat alertness is in a whole other ballpark. The moment we get close enough from any angle, his reaction triumphs over our attacking strategy and speed."
"I have an idea."
Kalawarner's curiosity was piqued. "This better be good."
"We need to distract him, right?"
"Well, yeah..."
"Keep him busy for at least a minute, I'm going to supercharge an attack that would hold him off where it would create an opening behind him."
"You want me to fight that bastard alone?!"
"Only for a minute."
"Raynare... A minute is an eternity when it comes to the Horsemen of the Apocalypse."
"Just go!" Raynare shouted while charging up an attack.
Kalawarner didn't have time to squabble with her, so she dashed straight towards the Horsemen with everything she got. Slamming her sword against his spear caused her to fly back from the recoil of the attack. Famine tried to impale her heart, but she moved to the side and slid her sword alongside his spear before getting close to him where she drove the pointed part of her high heel in the gap of his helmet.
Famine used his free hand to grab hold of her foot, but Kalawarner had a backup plan if her first strike would fail, so she slipped her foot out of the heel where she quickly exerted all her brute force against the side of his helmet.
Famine was stunned for a second that spawned an opening for her. She didn't waste any time as she used the light sword to puncture his leg. Famine let out a death curdling scream as the power of light was burning his undead and unholy body.
Kalawarner began to materialize her sword into a spear where she jolted it through her heel and his helmet. Not even a minute has passed by before another scream was heard from Famine.
"That's right... Scream more little pig." She backed off before sending out a hail storm of light spears at Famine.
The Horsemen was growling in pain and anger.
Famine's eyes began to glow a bright white before he exploded into a fit of rage. A protective barrier formed around him, but during this moment, he pointed his spear directly at Raynare where it began to charge up magic energy at the tip of his spear.
"RAYNARE, YOU BETTER HURRY THE HELL UP!"
They were reaching the breaking point of generating magic power. The two of them were about to fire off their attacks, but a blood-curdling scream that shattered everyone's soul made them freeze up. Numbness soared throughout their whole body as Raynare and Kalawarner's eyes looked as if they lost life to them.
"W-W-Who w-was that?" Raynare asked.
Before her question could be answered, a bright flash engulfed the whole battlefield before the sound of an astronomical explosion could be heard that annihilated everything around them. The Underworld was slowly becoming a figment of imagination as the physical objects of the Underworld were disappearing from existence. It was collapsing itself and returning to nothing.
The majority of the people who were hit by the attack turned into smoke. Nothing remained of their bodies or souls.
The tears in reality were growing more and more. In the distance, a black hole formed where it was destroying everything in its path. Shredding everything it touches with nothing surviving its onslaught.
Raynare and Kalawarner were both on the ground with blood running down their heads, arms, and legs.
"W-W-W-What's g-g-g-going o-on?" Kalawarner asked while struggling to speak as a fountain of blood dropped to the ground.
Raynare woke up before rolling over onto her back. "Are... w-we... alive?"
"It s-seems so."
"But how?" Raynare wondered before a wave of misery splashed all over her body. Kalawarner was having a difficult time recuperating as the unholy powers of light and dark didn't mix well when getting hit by a massive attack from the original Lucifer. The pain that was residing inside of her was the worst pain she could feel. All her bodily functions were playing tricks that made her unable to pinpoint the seriousness of the injury.
It was washing away and returning with much more tenacity than the previous feeling she had.
Her mind was focused on the situation at hand that her vision was getting lopsided from the head injury. Her blood trickled inside of the eye that was making her go blind.
Raynare saw the horrible situation she was in, but there was no possible way to help her out because of the situation she was in. Her organs felt as if they shut off, or even were hit by a cannon at close range that just disrupted her entire respiratory system.
"This hurts like... A son of... A bitch." Raynare spewed out with each breath being difficult to breathe in and exhale out.
The two Fallen Angel's were on the ground with torn up clothes and bruised up bodies. They needed to get up to fight off Famine, but the more they tried to get back on their feet, the more their bodies were telling them to just rest. The thoughts of giving up clouded Raynare's mind due to the pain that was knocking at her front door, but her gaze shifted upward and saw Madara floating above them. When she was able to see what was truly happening, she spotted that Madara summoned more of his clones that used their Susano'o to create a protective barrier around everyone to shield them from Lucifer's devastating attack.
But on the other hand, Madara received the most damage than anyone else. Blood was all over his body along with some patches of missing skin. Missing limbs along with the loss of vitality. He looked as if he has aged significantly after that attack. She could see that he was burnt out after Lucifer's attack.
"Lord Madara..." Raynare called out silently.
Famine was clenching his fists with enough force that was shattering his gauntlets. "That Uchiha is always destroying our Lord's plans. Why can't he simply just pass away and leave this world to our Lord's will?" Famine questioned.
Kalawarner turned to face her opponent with every fiber of her being. "Maybe you should just abandon that leader of yours and pursue a new purpose in life."
"Hehehehe... Funny. I'm receiving advice from a Fallen Angel who also defected from their leader to find a new purpose in life. Well... It doesn't matter at this point."
"Why do you say that?" Raynare questioned.
"Our plan is already set in motion."
"What plan?" Kalawarner raised the question before using her hand to wipe away the blood from her eyes and face.
Famine chuckled again. "That's something a Fallen Angel doesn't need to know."
"Keep being mysterious, you bastard." Raynare cursed while regaining her strength.
"IT'S TIME FOR YOU CROWS TO SINK INTO THE PITS OF OBLIVION!" Famine raised his spear before slamming it down into the ground, which caused a volcanic eruption all across the battlefield.
Raynare grabbed Kalawarner before flying up into the air.
The both of them looked down to see the state of the area, but once they glanced down, all they saw was lava bursting from various locations.
"Raynare, give me a boost."
"A boost to what?"
"I want you to launch me straight at him."
"With the condition, you're in, that would kill you."
"It doesn't matter at this point, I need to travel fast enough where he wouldn't have time to react."
"To do what exactly?"
Kalawarner constructed a light sword in her hand. "I'm going to shove this sword right through his fucking skull."
"Tsch... You crazy bitch." Raynare let her go before making a magic circle in her hand to shoot out a strong force of the wind.
The gust of wind hit her in the back that made it worse for her, but it got her up to speed. Famine wasn't expecting a suicide charge, which made his reaction time a bit slow, but he managed to raise his spear to counter any attack she was going to send.
Famine failed to protect himself as Kalawarner drove her sword right through his helmet that punctured his right eye. In a fit of rage and pain, his spear went through her abdomen. He let go of his spear to get the sword out of his eye.
Due to being connected between his brothers and Lucifer, he wasn't able to die because of the Horseman of Death. "AHHHHHHH! HOW CAN A LOWLY FALLEN ANGEL HARM ME LIKE THIS?!" Famine took hold of the sword in his eye before slowly pulling it out. When he was removing the sword, the sound of flesh being cut was causing more harm due to the burning sensation that any light weapon produced.
The sounds of screams filled the wasteland of nothingness.
Raynare rushed towards her friend to see a spear sticking out of her stomach. "What did I just tell you?!" She took hold of the spear before slowly removing it.
When the spear was removed, another horrifying wave of pain washed over her. "Raynare..."
"What is it?" She asked while trying her best to cover up the wound.
"I can't feel my legs."
"Don't even think about shutting your eyes on me."
"THAT'S IT, I"M GOING TO SEND YOUR ENTIRE RACE TO THE PITS OF PURGATORY!" Famine screamed out before calling his horse that instantly came running towards him. When the horse arrived, he wasted no time before fusing with his horse. He raised his hand that caused the spear to go flying into his hand.
Famine aimed his spear and threw it directly at the two. Raynare had no time to react as the spear was inches away from piercing her head. In that split second, a bolt of lightning appeared in front of them, which blinded them, but it also shot the spear away from them.
Raynare regained her vision after the blinding light that hit her. She saw that a man was standing before them in casual wear, but that wasn't that caught her attention, it was the sheer wickedness of magic power that this certain individual had.
Famine widened his eyes. "Indra?!"
Indra's expression had veins popping out all over his face. He was pissed enough that he had to come to the Underworld, but to come here because of Lucifer's return to the world was already plenty enough that infuriated him. "I honestly didn't care about the events that went on here in the Underworld but to hear from Shiva, Brahma, and Vishnu that the different realms are tearing reality apart was just too much."
Raynare widened her eyes. "Lord Shiva, Lord Brahma, and even Lord Vishnu? The Hindu God of Destruction, God of Creation, and the God of Protection?!"
"That doesn't explain why a Hindu God that doesn't belong in the Underworld is here." Famine said.
"You see... With Lucifer's return, the battle between Madara and Lucifer has become a calculation we haven't expected. Madara's new body that was created from Great Red and Ophis has caught the eyes of every God at Mount Kailash and Mount Meru. Madara's and Lucifer's battle is ripping the realms of reality into extinction. It's reaching into Earth and other various locations that shouldn't even be happening in the first place." Indra explained.
Raynare and Kalawarner were disturbed to hear that Madara was reconstructed from both Great Red and Ophis. They already knew that he wasn't an ordinary human when he was still a human, but to hear that he is the sole manifestation of both the Dragon of Dreams and the Infinite Dragon God was a deterrent to every single enemy of Madara.
Indra continued. "This battle between Madara and Lucifer isn't doing anything as it is making worlds asunder. The people that follow Madara have the providence of a God standing behind them, yet, they are blind to what is going on around them. This whole battle isn't resolving anything, it's making a whole new problem."
"What would that problem be?" Raynare asked.
Indra's eyes narrowed. "The longer this battle continues, the seals that were placed on the abomination millions of years of ago will weaken, which will unseal the unholiest creature known throughout all the realms and will swallow this world and every other world into the pits of oblivion. I'm sure you all are familiar with the beast I'm talking about."
Famine recalled his spear as steam was leaving through the cracks of his helmet.
"The Emperor Beast of the Apocalypse. The atrocious beast that defies creation... Trihexa."
Famine heard enough as he charged Indra.
Indra stood still before Famine got close enough where he performed a roundhouse kick with lightning trailing his foot. His foot collided with Famine's head that blasted him far away from the position he was just at.
Indra began to zap around with his lightning until he appeared in front of the Horsemen. He shot his hand down in a chopping position, which had lightning engulfing his whole hand. When the strike hit Famine successfully, he was electrocuted first before hitting the ground.
The Horsemen recovered instantly where he flew back up to deliver a nasty knee strike. Indra didn't expect this, but he retaliated by hurling him a hook kick. Famine caught his foot as he drove his fist straight into his abdomen.
Indra had to quickly back off when he saw the spear nearly cleave his head off. Indra flew back where he created a massive lightning halberd before throwing it.
Famine got out of the way as the lightning halberd hit the ground that spawned a chain of explosions.
This attack was only a front for Indra as he appeared in front of the Horsemen once again, but he had his back arched while readying his leg. When enough momentum was built up, Indra swung his foot with enough tenacity to give him a disgusting right hook. Once again, lightning trailed behind the kick to give his attack extra firepower. His foot connected with his helmet that shattered it in a blink of an eye. Indra's kick summoned multiple lightning strikes that struck the Horsemen in consecutive seconds.
This severely pissed of Famine as he sent out a scattershot of multidirectional black orbs that wiped everything off the map.
Indra created bolts of lightning helicopter blades in his hands before spinning them at incredible speeds. Each orb that tried to him was instantly deflected back at him or was sent in another direction.
"This is getting annoying." Indra blurted out as his eyes began to glow purple.
A thunderstorm began to unleash its Hell upon the Underworld. Rain and continuous booms of thunder shattered the sound barrier. Dark clouds covered the whole sky in an endless void of darkness. Cold gusts of wind were blowing at ridiculous speeds. Indra flew up high before a bolt of lightning shot down into his hand that created a sword.
"Time to send you back to nothingness. Heavenly Divine Splitter." Indra's lightning sword was filled to the brim with magical energy. He raised his sword to accumulate enough momentum before swinging it downwards, which sent out a streak of lightning down the middle that tore everything in half as it cleaved Famine straight down the center before the streak of lightning reached a certain threshold before warping in and out as a singularity appeared until another bulky explosion occurred.
The lightning sword dissipated not long after its use. Not even seconds went by before the cursed magic rituals of the Horsemen of Death and Lucifer began to take into effect.
Famine was restored fully by his brother's magic as an intoxicating aura surrounded him.
"Damn... Lucifer's and Death's perverse magical nature never ceases to piss me off. Defying the principles of life and death surely would rattle Shiva's and Brahma's universal principles and foundations."
"Lord Indra, let me help," Raynare commented as she appeared beside him.
"What happened to your friend?"
"I put her somewhere safe."
"Listen, I don't need help from a Fallen Angel. What can you possibly do that could benefit me?"
"That's saying something from the man who failed to kill the Horsemen of Famine."
Indra snarled at that. "Alright... Just don't get in my way, but you have to understand one thing though."
She raised a brow.
"No matter what we do, we won't be able to kill any of the Horsemen because they are all linked with each other. That means the only way to kill them is to destroy the one who ties them all together."
"Death..." She blurted out.
"Correct, so we have to hold out until Madara finds a way to stop Death and Lucifer."
"How do we even kill Death? You can't simply just kill something already dead, so this poses a problem."
"Madara already possesses the weapon that could destroy Death."
"Weapon? What weapon?"
"The True Longinus."
Scene Break
Madara couldn't catch his breath from the serious injuries he has sustained. It wasn't much of a problem for him as he was able to heal up all of his injuries. Even though he could heal up the severe damages, the pain that he receives from attacks still resides within him. He wasn't exactly immortal, but he was scaling the lines of immortality when it came to being a spawn of Ophis and Great Red.
Lucifer witnessed Madara survive an attack that was meant to obliterate continents with the sheer power that his attack posed. "Why are you still struggling at this point? What has humanity done for you?"
Madara spat out a big chunk of blood before giving his reply. "You fail to recognize just how much humanity could grow and strive to become a race that stands above all the races across all the realms. Humans are not simply fighting to survive in this world, they are pursuing a life where the hardships of suffering no longer exist. Listen here, bastard, it's only through estranging ourselves from other people's beliefs that you can create something that has never existed before. Breaking the cycle you have implanted within the world is when the world begins estranging itself from the belief of a cursed and wretched world that you have stuffed within the minds of the innocent."
"You must be joking? Human programming won't change no matter how much you want to beat it into them. That's how my father has constructed them to be in the first place. Free will was given to them, but look where that got them. Handing them the keys to survive on their own has stained humanity's image."
Madara's clones turned to wooden statues before dropping to the ground. "Where does that ridiculous mindset even take you? A simple flaw that humans have is the immediate response to a complete and total worldwide genocide? That's the problem with bastards like you, you fail to give people the chance to learn from their mistakes, which helps them further develop the necessary precautions to those mistakes they created. No one is born perfect in this world or the next."
"Is that so? What does a human know about perfection? Your kind is the sole reason why plagues, genocides, and wars exist. Your mindsets have no limits when wanting to stomp over others. Don't you get it, Madara? When exiting your mother's wombs, that has unlocked the gates to an endless of possibilities that could lead to more conflicts and misery."
Madara's Rinnegan eyes were beginning to flare up, which he was ready to launch an attack. "How could I forget... You weren't created through normal procreate human ways. You had one man that created you without the necessary ways of procreation because of his divine omnipotent powers."
Lucifer wasn't liking where this was going.
"Let me tell you a fact to make you truly understand why we humans strive to be better than the likes of you. We, humans, enter this world in sin through the great sufferings of our mothers. And with that sin, we try to love and give compassion to those around us to redeem ourselves from the sins of our mothers. This whole war is nothing more than a tantrum because of the sin your father created. Instead of trying to find ways to help reduce that sin from becoming dangerous, you exploited it to the point where your unexperienced brain created all these turns of events throughout life."
"What sin would that be?" Lucifer growled.
"We humans are the sin of your father's mind and creation, which created humanity through his roots while also creating the biggest sin of all... The jealousy of his most favorite and beloved son. That love has thwarted everything that your father wanted to maintain. Humanity wouldn't be in this crisis if it weren't for you and that other bastard child of his, I wouldn't have to be in this damn predicament in the first place."
"I'm growing tired of your ideologies and philosophies. Your mindset is a poison that has infected this uprising, so I will make sure there will never be another Madara in this world or the next."
"We'll see about that." Madara needed to end this ruthless battle with Lucifer, Samael, and Death. This was only prolonging an inevitable doom.
He flew up as high as he could where everyone could see him no matter where they were at.
"What are you planning on doing?" Ophis asked.
"I'm going to vaporize his existence. For me to do that, I'm going descend upon this realm as a God of Destruction. I will annihilate those bastards and their simple train of thought."
Before Madara could start up his attack, Samael came flying in, which the both of them slammed their hands against each other, which quickly made their hands interlock with one another. Madara instantly began to chuckle. "Your dancing techniques are quite dirty. I wouldn't expect anything less from a bastard child."
"Let's just see how much longer that bravado of yours will last."
The moment Samael uttered those words, Madara's expression shifted in a matter of seconds. He had the look of a delusional psychopath that would have sent any normal person into a state of fear. Without saying anything else, Madara began to use one of Samael's hands to create a hand sign as he kicked him in the gut and backed away from him.
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu." A large ball of fire was blasted out of his mouth that came in contact with Samael. The attack ruptured when it came in contact with him where Samael had no chance of dodging it. His body was sent flying down to the ground in a matter of seconds with burn marks trailing down his face and abdomen.
Not long after Samael's attempt, the Horsemen of Death came in undetected with his scythe being swung horizontally. Madara countered it by using one of his truth-seeking orbs to deflect the scythe.
When Death's weapon was deflected, he instantly popped in a right hook with his foot that hit Madara in the ribs. A surge of pain sprung up before suppressing it entirely. Madara grabbed his foot and yanked him close where he used his elbow to slam against Death's forehead.
Lucifer found his chance to pull off a sneak attack as he flew up to Madara's and Death's location. "Limbo." Madara spawned his four invisible clones while two of them came flying in like a javelin, which crushed Lucifer's chest with the momentum they had.
Lucifer felt like his heart was just sandwiched from the amount of power the two kicks had. "This damn trick again!" He yelled out while trying to recover.
The surprise attack didn't do much as he was restored by Death's magic.
The attacks kept on coming as Samael flew his way up with a light sword in his hand.
With the other two invisible clones, they delivered an attack of their own that pushed Samael back.
"I'm seriously getting fucking annoyed by that invisible force!" Lucifer commented before he flared up in another fit of rage.
Death tried to send off another slash with his scythe, but Madara rushed out of the way in time as the slash attack left some magical particles that rotted away anything his scythe touched.
Lucifer, Samael, and Death all charged at Madara with all of their strength.
The Uchiha looked around to see he was getting jumped from multiple directions, so he quickly wrapped himself with the rib cage of the Susano'o.
When the rib cage formed around him, the three of them collided with the Susano'o. The rib cage was cracking, melting, and fading away from Lucifer's, Samael's, and Death's attacks.
Madara constructed two arms from the rib cage before pushing Lucifer and Samael away from him. When the two of them were far away from him, he released the Susano'o as he used the truth-seeking orbs to unleash a hailstorm of bullets at Death.
Death fell to the ground due to the power of each blow that the truth-seeking orbs did.
When Death was not in his vicinity anymore, Madara shifted his attention straight to Lucifer. "Universal Pull!" An invisible force began to send Lucifer to Madara's location without warning. "What the Hell?!" Lucifer said.
Madara used his free hand to unleash an attack. "Sage Art: Storm Release: Laser Circus." A halo of bright energy formed in the palm of his hand before several beams appeared where they quickly were shot off the moment they appeared. The blue lightning that would have been seen was no longer that same color as it was now a black and purple texture.
The lightning attack collided with Lucifer as blood was expunged from his body from all directions. Samael summoned thousands of magic circles as a hailstorm of his own was unleashed. Madara had to redirect his attention once again. There were thousands upon thousands of light streaks flying towards him.
"Wood Style: Wood-Dragon Jutsu!" A wooden dragon appeared from the ground below him where it flew up to Madara. Madara didn't waste any time before hopping on the wood dragon and began surfing it towards Samael.
The light streaks were slashing bits and pieces off of the wood dragon, but it was managing to dodge some of the most lethal hits that would have hit Madara.
His surfing moment came to an end when Death sent a black veil of magic from his scythe that split the whole wood dragon in half.
Madara had no time to react before the light streaks began to pierce his body. Madara couldn't stop this onslaught, so he needed to find a way to avoid getting hit anymore before it got any worse. "Almighty Push!" Madara extended both of his arms out before an unimaginable repulsive force annihilated everything around him. The onslaught of the light streaks vanished the moment the repulsive wave hit them.
Everyone had to back away as they didn't want to get hit by the attack.
Samael had enough of Madara's tactics, so he slashed his wrist, which blood instantly came gushing out. With the light sword in his hand, he coated the whole weapon in his blood.
"Finally getting serious, brother?" Lucifer asked with a dignified smirk.
"Since you despise humans so much, Lucifer... I despise dragons just as much you despise those humans."
"You flatter me too much, brother. But in hindsight, you're doing quite well, Madara. Using the powers of the Infinite Dragon God to surpass your limits was a surprise, but just how much further must you tarnish your existence and self-respect to remove me and my brother? Just quit where you are because you will only destroy this world to smithereens the further we fight each other. There is an entire universe out there, which my father has created. You can go and I won't stop you. This world no longer needs a warden, it needs a cleansing." Lucifer proposed.
"Why couldn't I simply have died in peace in the Elemental Nations?" Madara questioned.
"What are you going on about over there?" Lucifer asked.
Madara clenched his fists. He couldn't stand this anymore. "This world... My world... They are all the same. No matter how far I travel, no matter how much I drown myself in absolute emptiness and sickness, there will always be people who want to live in the same realm with identical characteristics of a madman. Very well... That cleansing you desperately want will come to fruition."
"Talking like a real madman, Madara. If I didn't know any better, it would seem that you have become a demon."
"You must be a fool... I already became something more than a demon a long time ago. The life I live isn't even a life anymore. In my world, it was demonstrated that my existence wasn't needed because the world that I envisioned was already growing its roots because of Asura's, Hashirama's, and Naruto's beliefs and goals."
"Are you losing it? What are you even spouting about at this point?"
"That's right... You don't have a single damn clue of my existence..."
"If you have become something more than a demon, then why don't you take my side? You have the mind of a person that isn't even a part of this world. Your logical and critical thinking skills should have shown you that these humans are destructive creatures. It's human nature to destroy themselves, so why? Why do you care so damn much about a species that has no direction, no guidance, no self-control? What have they ever done for you? They will turn their backs on you the moment you ignore them. at the end of all things, humans can only trust themselves." Lucifer demanded to know.
"You may have a point... Humans do have the tenacity to destroy themselves. It is also the sole definition of man... As man seeks peace, yet at the same time yearning for war... Those are the two realms belonging solely to man. Thinking about peace whilst spilling blood is something that only humans could do. They're two sides of the same coin... To protect something... Another must be sacrificed."
"You clearly understand, so why do you insist on helping them?"
"You misinterpreted those words... They weren't meant for them... They were meant for me."
"What?! What are you talking about?"
"You see... I do seek peace, but... I crave an endless taste for warfare. To see bastards like you ripped apart is my greatest life satisfaction. Your blind vision can't possibly see just how my existence is unfolding itself. With all the talks about peace and a future where no one has to be chained to the likes of your kind is my greatest wish, but for that wish to be accomplished, I will continue to soak my hands in your blood to obtain peace. I already sacrificed my humanity, body, and soul to a God to further progress my wish, so I will destroy and sink my existence into the deepest of voids just to seek a world where bastards like you never exist.
"You mad freak!"
Madara's insane delusional and psychotic countenance returned as he soared high into the sky. "Seems like your brain is starting to understand? It takes a freak to know one, you bastard." Madara extended out his dragon arm where all of his truth-seeking orbs came hovering over his hand. Giving the orbs a single glance, he blasted the orbs in various directions where they all hovered over the whole battlefield.
He clapped his hands together before all the truth-seeking orbs expanded into massive planetoid-like shapes. All of the truth-seeking orbs were engulfed in purple and black flames that blinded anyone who dared to look up.
When Lucifer stole a glance, all he could see was Madara's body covered in a shadow, but what scrambled Lucifer's mind wasn't the menacing magic overflow spilling out of the Uchiha's body, but the way his gaze was serrating his very existence. Lucifer could only gaze upon the terrifying image of his opponent as the two glowing Rinnegan eyes were radiating so brightly while also staring directly at him.
"Sage Art: Yin-Yang Release: Etheral Truth-Seeking Planetary Annihilation."
Madara casually lowered one of his hands down, which sent all of his planetoid-like truth-seeking orbs downwards.
Each of the truth-seeking orbs touched down on top of each other before a hurricane of catastrophes unloaded itself upon the Underworld. A galactic eruption poured its agonizing Hell across the whole battlefield. Any remaining ecosystem of life that existed on the Underworld floor they were on was eviscerated into ashes. A crater that was the size of the tallest mountain in the world but doubled was displayed all across the ground floor.
The shockwave of the attack created rifts in reality that were pouring into the human world. Lucifer, Samael, and Death were nowhere to be seen as the explosion swallowed them whole.
With all the elements within the truth-seeking orbs, the light energy within them purified any creature that was not holy. Death's forces where he created an army from Lucifer's suicide attack against his men evaporated into the air.
An electrostatic field formed after both the explosion and shockwave. It vaporized all essential life that did survive the explosion.
Madara knew the consequences of this attack. Some of his forces and people were swept up in the explosion, but he already explained to Lucifer that he would sacrifice pieces of his existence and moral standards to construct a world that is envisioned by millions.
Ophis didn't want to say anything. Her existence was connected with his, so every experience he comes by would instantly be her experience as well. There was a lingering pain in his heart, so she couldn't allow him to dwell in the dark like how she is doing. He was supposed to be the light that overcasts any form of darkness.
The pain he was feeling was quickly lifted as she absorbed his sorrows and pain into herself. She took on Madara's pain, so he wouldn't suffer the fate of guilt.
Madara remained floating in the air with empty thoughts flowing past his mind. "What do you think?"
"What do you mean?" Ophis asked indifferently.
"You think that bastard survived?"
"Knowing the fact that wasn't even your strongest attack, there is a possibility of him surviving. Light attacks won't do much against him."
"I didn't just use light on him, I used every element known to man. Truth-seeking orbs are more potent than you think."
"I know... I can hear and see your every thought. We're bound together, so no matter how much we want to separate from each other, we will always be together. Besides, you have yet to see what you are truly capable of."
"Say... Now that you and Gedo Statue have fused, doesn't that mean I can use your powers with the Gedo Statue?"
"You could, but there is a more profound way to use that power than just summoning out the Gedo Statue. If you recall, I turned into a dragon when I was sucked in by the Gedo Statue. Since the statue absorbed me and my powers, it shifted into the form of a dragon. You absorbing the Gedo Statue does imply the fact that you have taken in a literal dragon inside of you. In other terms, I'm both the Infinite Dragon God and the Gedo Statue."
"What is it exactly that you are implying? I recently noticed that I don't know much of your abilities ever since we became one."
"There are many powers I hold that you don't know about, but they will unlock themselves the further you use magic. The ouroboros powers will show themselves and their secrets in time. As for what I meant, you haven't noticed that when you absorbed both me and the Gedo Statue, an ability was awakened inside of you."
"Ability? What ability are you talking about? I saw that my visual prowess has become more profound. Unlocking new abilities for my eyes was one of the things that I noticed. I don't know what other ability you are talking about."
"As expected... You have only just received this new body, so you wouldn't know a lot of its functions. You already know that I am both the Infinite Dragon God and the Gedo Statue. When you have absorbed me and my powers along with the transformed Gedo Statue, you have sealed up a dragon inside of you that gave you the capability to shapeshift in the form of a dragon."
Madara perked up at those words. "Shapeshift?"
"I told you when we were with Great Red. When you were constructed with my magic and Great Red's body, you have attained new abilities because you are no longer human. Henceforth, you were a dragon without its true form. This human look you have was only a shell because you lacked the necessary powers to truly shapeshift. You were human before, so it would make sense why you wouldn't have a dragon form as you would be the same as me. After taking in both me and the transformed Gedo Statue, you have been given your true form."
"No wonder why my senses have been getting better exponentially.
"Of course... Human potential can only go so far, so you needed a body that wasn't human. You needed a body where you could truly hold me while also being able to obtain your true form as well."
"My true form..."
"Absolutely... This Sage of the Six Paths look is of your creation, but deep down inside, I'm your true form."
Madara glanced down at his dragon arm. "Why haven't I seen your true form?"
"I'm only a human-shaped dragon. I'm not like the others. Not every dragon can turn into a human while not every human-formed dragon can turn into its true form. But with me being inside of you while also having our souls intertwined, there is no reason why you couldn't be able to do it."
Madara let those words sink in. He understood the powers of what the Gedo Statue could offer, but having the Infinite Dragon God and the Gedo Statue be a singular form opened a doorway to even more possibilities. To hear that he can shapeshift into a creature that has the power to destroy nations was unheard of to him, but at the same time, he has ascended to the realm of the Sage of the Six Paths and the Infinite Dragon God.
There were many new powers he has begun learning about when absorbing Ophis within him. These powers soared even greater than the Ten-Tails that he knew greatly about. It exceeded his expectations beyond anything he could have achieved on his own. It was a whole new profound power that couldn't parallel the powers of all the tailed beasts.
"I guess we will just have to see where that takes us." He said before refocusing his attention to the crater below to see if his opponents survived.
"As you wish, dear Madara."
