Chapter 676 Battle with Kabuto

I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.

Leonidas, Itachi and Himiko entered the cave and saw a cloaked figure there kneeling down with his back turned at them.

"So Kabuto... Long time no see."Leonidas said.

"Yes, it's been a while, but this is perfect."He smirks.

Himiko shoots a wind blast but he vanishes letting his cloak be destroyed.

They saw his new body and he had a snake coming out from his gut.

"This form..."Leonidas said.

"Yes, I have mastered sage mode too, along with having Orochimaru's chakra."Kabuto laughs.

"Himiko be ready."Itachi said.

Kabuto sends many snakes to attack them but Leonidas changes into his cursed mark state avoiding them while the Uchiha siblings summoned they're Susanoos to grab them.

Kabuto uses water bullet jutsu to shoot water at them and they blocked or dodge it in Leonidas case.

Leonidas then does a Jutsu of his own."Wood Release: Thorns of Pain!"

Many thorns came out from the walls and Kabuto dodges them.

"So you added Wood Release to your DNA."Kabuto said.

"Of course, I'm not one to waste a chance, with the Uzumaki chakra reserves I was able to use this technique better than Danzo ever could."Leonidas said.

Kabuto chuckles."Yes... His chakra is pathetic compared to you, but let's see if you can do better."

He claps his hands making the area around them to send spikes at the trio making them dodge it.

"You fool! I know that Jutsu too."Leonidas uses his to make spikes come towards Kabuto who dodges them.

"Yes, the difference between us you got it first."Kabuto said."But I still have many other abilities."

Itachi and Himiko were watching before they charged foward.

"Wind blade!"She summons her blade.

Kabuto sees them coming and uses a Jutsu."Sage Art: White Rage Technique!". He shoots a energy dragon at them before it coils exploding into a bright light making most of them blind.

Leonidas could still sense Kabuto and saw him cut Itachi in half with the chakra scalpel and goes to get Himiko but he appears in front of him blocking the attack with his zanpakuto.

"Of course, only a user of Senjutsu could counter it."Kabuto said.

Kabuto goes underneath the ground and they looked around.

"You are all strong but the only way to stop the reanimation Jutsu is to have me perform the hand signs to cancel it out, so you can't kill me!"He laughs at them.

Four snakes came down at them and Itachi summons his Susanoo to grab them with Four arms.

Himiko goes around and Kabuto goes to attack her but she blocks his scalpel with her sword to stop it.

"It seems this blade is stronger than I thought."Kabuto avoids a shot from Leonidas staff.

Kabuto then summons a body of Kidomaru surprising them and it shoots webs at the group making them go away.

"You added those guys DNA to your body."Leonidas said.

"That's right."Kimimaro appears on his body and makes many bone spikes to attack the group with them avoiding it again.

They went behind pillars to dodge them and Himiko said:"He's too fast."

"There is a Jutsu that can stop him."Itachi said with Himiko looking at him.

Kabuto summons a copy of Tayuya to play her flute and she traps Itachi and Himiko in a genjutsu but Leonidas saw what he was doing and covered his ears.

Then he summons a snake version of Orochimaru."Soon all three of you will become part of me and lord Orochimaru, afterall Leonidas he wanted you to be a good back up body if Sasuke didn't work out."

Itachi looks at his sister."You have my genjutsu in your other eye don't you."

"Huh?"She looks at him.

"You have a unique jutsu instead of Amaterasu so you have my other one in your other eye as a natural ability."He said.

She looks at him and nodded, they then used it."Tsukuyomi!"

They casted it on each other to break free from Kabuto's control and Itachi summoned his Susanoo to cut the snake in half.

"You live in a fantasy world."Itachi said.

Kabuto stares at it before he falls down.

Leonidas got surprised but knows that wouldn't kill him.

Then from the snake came Kabuto and he slashes Itachi in half and goes to attack them.

But then Itachi turns into crows surprising him and then Itachi came down, he took Himiko's sword slashing one of Kabuto's horns off.

Kabuto felt a drop of water on his shoulder.

"Your fate has been sealed. The izanami."Itachi said.

Kabuto grunts and charges at him, he fights again him before he takes the sword stabbing Itachi.

But then he turns into crows and Kabuto jumps back.

Itachi appeared and slashes the horn off.

Kabuto got surprised and feels it. Didn't he cut that horn already?

"Your already in my visual genjutsu."Itachi said.

Kabuto felt the drop of water again surprising him again.

He uses his Jutsu to stab Itachi with the ground but he turns into crows again and he saw his horn appears again before Itachi comes down slashing it off.

Then the water hits him again making Kabuto scared."What's going on?!"

At the outside world Kabuto was just standing there.

"So this is the Izanami?"Himiko said.

"Yes, it was a Jutsu made to punish those that abused the Izanagi, it traps the victim inside of a infinite loop until they accept they're reality."Itachi said.

Leonidas was impressed."I see, that is a powerful Jutsu, it even worked without eye contact."

"Yes, now with him in this state."Itachi said.

Kabuto does the hand signs."Release."

The jutsu got canceled and Itachi's soul was released.

He looks at his sister and puts his forehead on hers."I'll be off, take care of my son for me."

She has tears in her eyes before nodding."Of course, big brother."

He then goes to the afterlife and they stared at where he once was.

"Rest in peace Itachi."Leonidas said.

Then they saw someone come and it was Sasuke's team Taka.

"You guys."Leonidas said.

Back at the battlefield

Zero-One and Draco were fighting against Madara and they all saw the reanimations going away.

"Alright Leonidas did it!"Yui said.

"How Madara will vanish too."Alex said.

Madara looks at them."Tell the caster..."They looked at him doing hand signs."He shouldn't use a forbidden jutsu so recklessly."

He performs the Jutsu and he was still there.

"No way."Zero-One said.

"He used it on himself!"Draco said.

They all got ready since Madara Uchiha has performed the reanimation jutsu on himself now he's immortal and in full control.

Note: Here's the battle with Kabuto and they had a better chance since Leonidas is just as strong as Kabuto in the curse mark state, but now Madara is free from Kabuto's control and immortal.
