I do not own Naruto Shippuden or any of the characters.
Back Up
The Ten-tails roared, punching the ground between the two Uchiha as they fired a pair of massive fire jutsus at the Allied Shinobi. Ryuu was about to form his Susanoo when the chakra shroud around his body strengthened, the flames parting around it, not harming him, as was true for everyone else. As soon as the flames ended, Madara formed his Susanoo, creating several blue tomoe to fire as Obito launched a hail of shuriken at the Allied Forces out of his Sharingan. Naruto swung his arms in front of himself, the shrouds all growing tails. Then, they began to smash the Yasaka Magatama and the kunai out of the air. As soon as it ended, they looked toward Madara and Obito, only to see that Obito had disappeared.
"He's gone!" Naruto growled.
"He escaped," B stated.
Just then, Obito appeared over Naruto, swinging at him as he leapt away. Ryuu realized that Naruto had reverted to the weaker Nine-tails' chakra shroud and was panting, the effort of controlling all of the cloaks so completely draining him of chakra rapidly.
"Naruto," Ryuu said. "Let us handle the small things. You focus on fighting."
"You're growing weaker," Obito stated.
"I don't think you'd understand since you want to be alone," Naruto smirked, standing. "But having everyone at my side makes my happy!"
He charged at Obito, along with several other Shinobi. Before they could reach him, Obito escaped, reappearing on a boulder off to one side.
"If the pain of your comrades' deaths is a part of your bond, then there's no point in defending them," Obito stated.
"That's not what I'm saying!" Naruto snapped. "I'm saying that I will never give up on my friends! It's more painful to not have any friends here."
He held his hand over his heart and glared at Obito. At the same time, Madara leapt to the top of the mountain holding the Ten-tails and grinned wickedly. Just as he did, the Ten-tails began to smash the mountain, finally breaking free. Just as it did, its missing arm grew out of the stump and its body began to fill out, looking less emaciated by the second. It roared, the volume making everyone cover their ears. Then, a massive glowing white dome appeared over it before expanding. The dome suddenly vanished and massive boulders began to get ripped free of the ground, flying around. A massive wind picked up, making them shield their eyes. Storm clouds formed overhead, lightning flashing through them.
"What is this?" Ryuu growled, forming his Susanoo to block the wind, the Susanoo shielding several nearby Shinobi too.
"Kamui!" Kakashi shouted suddenly.
Just as he did, Obito appeared in front of him, beginning to drag both into the Kamui's dimension.
"Naruto, take care of things here," Kakashi said.
Then, they were gone. The glowing dome appeared around the Ten-tails again, the ground beginning to break apart and fly away in expanding rings, reaching outward. Water flooded the crater it formed and lightning began to strike the ground everywhere within several miles as dozens of massive tornados formed, tearing the ground apart still more. Then, what seemed like hours later, though it was probably just a few minutes, it was over. Shinobi began to stir all over the place, their chakra shrouds having protected them again, Ryuu being protected by his Susanoo instead, along with everyone else who had also taken cover in his Susanoo. Madara looked around from inside his own Susanoo and adopted a very displeased look. At the same time, Naruto stepped forward, right arm wounded and hanging limply and blood running down the side of his face. He was also no longer covered in golden chakra.
"Is that all you've got?" Naruto grinned.
The Ten-tails stared at Naruto for a moment before placing its palms together and roaring in rage, body beginning to transform further, growing more muscular as the horns on its head grew longer. Naruto fell to one knee, the chakra shrouds fading from everyone else.
"Nice try attempting to be tough," Madara commended. "But it seems you've reached your limit. I think it's time you made your exit."
Just as he finished speaking, several shinobi appeared in front of Naruto, Ryuu in the front with his Susanoo.
"Everyone," Hinata called out from beside Ryuu. "Let's join together and fight as one!"
Everyone began to cheer as Sakura stepped forward, beginning to heal Naruto again.
"We'll keep them busy," Ryuu said. "I'll handle Madara."
"I'm going with you," Fu said.
Ryuu nodded and floated into the air, Fu doing the same, as the Susanoo grew its legs. She looked down in amazement at the fact that she was flying, then looked to Madara, who was watching them disinterestedly. Ryuu glanced back at the Ten-tails as it suddenly began to stretch its mouth open, a massive red thing reaching up from somewhere inside the Ten-tails. Then, the thing opened into a gigantic flower with a hole in the center. Then, a massive Tailed Beast Ball bigger than the Ten-tails itself began to form.
"Oh shit," Ryuu breathed. "It's massive."
Shikamaru suddenly was speaking in his mind, giving a hasty message, seemingly to everyone about building as many barriers as they could using a jutsu that had no earth style chakra requirements. Ryuu moved over beside Shikamaru and formed an Earth Style, Great Mud Wall, using his Susanoo in place of other shinobi. Then, the Allied Forces formed hundreds of walls on the far side of it. Then, the Ten-tails fired, B blasting it with Tailed Beast Balls to try to redirect it upward, failing. The Tailed Beast Ball began to blast through wall after wall without even slowing a little and Ryuu growled in frustration.
"It's not enough," Ryuu growled, switching to his stronger Susanoo again and stepping forward.
Just as the Great Mud Wall exploded, B crashed into the Tailed Beast Ball, halting it with help from Ryuu's Susanoo. They struggled to hold it back, then, slowly, began to lift it, redirecting it upward. Then, it vanished altogether.
"What was...that?" B blinked.
"It's gone?" Shikamaru blinked.
Ryuu turned, looking back and grinned, seeing the reincarnated shinobi with spiky blonde hair, a Konoha uniform, and a white full-length cloak with no sleeves and orange flames on the bottom and the words Fourth Hokage on the back.
"Am I late?" the Fourth Hokage, Minato, asked.
"Nope," Naruto grinned. "Right on time, Dad."
Ryuu turned back to the Ten-tails and Madara then sighed, letting his Susanoo go back to its weaker form again and creating its legs again.
"I'm going," Ryuu said. "Fu, stay here. I'm about to have help."
Fu nodded, stepping out of the Susanoo and it jumped, sailing through the air at Madara who watched him with a bored expression. Ryuu crashed down in front of him, letting the Susanoo's legs fade, noticing that his Susanoo was a couple feet shorter than Ryuu's.
"Hello again, Madara," Ryuu said, staring him in the eye.
"My Rinnegan are immune to Genjutsu," Madara said.
"I know," Ryuu said. "It's a pain in the ass. But this fight will be one of power."
Just then, the other three previous Hokage landed in line with Minato and Ryuu grinned.
"He's arrived at last," Madara said. "I have no interest in you, Uchiha brat. My prey is far superior."
"And he'll join our battle soon enough," Ryuu said. "But, for now, you're going to be fighting me. Let's see who's Susanoo is superior."
Madara stared at him for several minutes before leaning back, laughing.
"Very well," Madara smiled wickedly. "Let's see."
Just then, a massive red chakra barrier appeared around the Ten-tails, trapping it. Then, torii began to fall through the open top, pinning the Ten-tails' tails down, holding it still.
"Shouldn't you help your friends, now that the First Hokage is here?" Madara asked.
"No," Ryuu said, his Susanoo forming its drill. "The greatest generation in the history of the Hidden Leaf, save for yourself and Lord First Hokage, has it handled just fine. I'm going to be taking you down for them, though. Just one less piece to worry about."
Madara stared at him then crossed his arms, his Susanoo forming a sword.
"Very well," Madara nodded. "Let's go then."
