"Your abilities are decent, but they're far too one-sided."
Gensou looked at the descending Tengai Shinsei, a series of seven massive meteorites aligned like a chain, and calmly remarked.
In the next instant.
As the first meteorite approached, Gensou stretched out his palm and pressed upward.
Contrary to what one might expect, he did not lift the meteorite with one hand.
Instead, his palm's surface transformed to match the meteorite's appearance.
Like a river merging into the sea, his palm that first touched the meteorite fused into it.
Then, Gensou's entire body followed, disappearing from view and becoming one with the meteorite.
It was similar to becoming one with nature.
With the power of Kekkei Sōmō, Gensou could perfectly blend into the natural environment.
Although Tengai Shinsei was a Rinnegan technique used by Madara, the meteorites it summoned were from the material world.
It could ignore Shinra Banshō's abilities but could not ignore Nature Integration.
While the Rinnegan's techniques were overwhelmingly powerful, the Kekkei Sōmō enhanced the user's overall foundation.
Even at the Six Paths level, the difference between possessing Kekkei Sōmō and not having it was substantial.
Although Madara had attained the Six Paths level through the power of the Sage of Six Paths' chakra, the Sage could not transfer his Kekkei Sōmō to Madara.
Even if Kaguya possessed Kekkei Sōmō and had combined her power with others, her strength had not reached its peak. Moreover, she feared the Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei technique in Gensou's hands.
Thus, with the dual enhancement of Six Paths power and Kekkei Sōmō, Gensou, at his peak, could face two enemies simultaneously and completely overwhelm them from beginning to end.
Boom!
Seven gigantic meteorites broke through the atmosphere, trailing long fiery tails before crashing into the earth.
The shockwaves shattered mountains, cracked the earth, and created a vast impact zone almost covering the continent's center.
Madara blew away the thick dust clouds that shot up into the sky and looked down at the newly formed basin-like crater.
On a fractured meteorite, a hand slowly emerged.
Very soon, an unharmed Gensou walked out from the shattered meteorite fragments with a calm expression.
The fierce wind howled.
His white Six Paths robe fluttered in the wind as Gensou raised his head, looking at the disbelieving Madara with a slight smile.
"Not bad. Want to try again?"
Madara's face darkened. Without a word, he joined forces with his Limbo Clones and launched another assault.
Gensou watched as Madara charged toward him once more, his smile unchanged. His left hand reached into the void.
The sacred object wrapped with golden paper, the Ōnusa, appeared once again.
The ability that affected the entire planet, Ama no Iwato, had a duration of only one minute before it entered a cooldown period.
Having fought Madara and Kaguya for so long, the cooldown period had passed, and Gensou was ready to unleash his Rinnegan technique once more.
"I declare... Movement is forbidden here!"
As the words fell, the golden paper on the Ōnusa began to burn.
Madara suddenly found himself unable to move.
Not only his physical body but also his Limbo Clones were immobilized.
Thus, the three figures stood motionless in place, unable to make the slightest move.
In the next moment.
A dazzling brilliance of ninjutsu erupted from Gensou's body.
"Omnidirectional Dominion."
Gensou's dignified voice echoed.
Time flew by.
The Konoha observation group marched with great determination toward the source of the radiant ninjutsu.
When they finally arrived, they were met with a bizarre sight.
Three individuals, all wearing the same white robes adorned with magatama patterns, stood in place, completely still. Only their ninjutsu clashed repeatedly.
"Gensou!"
Naruto immediately noticed Gensou and was about to rush forward.
Suddenly.
As he tried to take a step, his legs stiffened, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move an inch.
"Don't get any closer!"
Having encountered this technique once before, Naruto quickly understood what was happening and urgently warned the others.
Seeing this, Jiraiya and the others immediately stopped.
After Naruto's explanation, they learned that what had caused the current situation was the same Ama no Iwato that had previously thrown the Sealing Scrolls and the Tailed Beasts into chaos.
"Even the caster is affected?" Minato looked at Gensou, whom he had encountered once before, with a serious expression.
In contrast, Tsunade, who had seen him many times before, carefully examined Gensou before exclaiming, "So, it really is you, huh!"
Gensou had already sensed the arrival of the Konoha group and didn't pay them much attention.
Hearing Tsunade's shout, he casually nodded.
Seeing his acknowledgment, Tsunade couldn't help but recall everything she had witnessed before and said, "You! So, this is what you meant by saving the Shinobi World?"
Gensou finally replied.
"Of course, this is saving the Shinobi World."
One of those guys wanted to turn everyone on the planet into his nourishment. The other, whose lifelong ideal had been shattered, was an extreme individual to begin with. Who knew what extreme actions he would take next?
As for the Sage of Six Paths.
That old schemer!
His lingering influence over the Shinobi World had persisted for a thousand years.
He kept suppressing those with potential, afraid they would shake his position.
A person who had sat on his position for so long, ignoring the bloodshed of the Shinobi World for a thousand years.
For the future of the Shinobi World, he too had to be eliminated.
Compared to those people.
Gensou believed he was the most normal.
The wheels of history continued to roll forward.
Having become the leader of the new era, Gensou felt it was his duty to eliminate these dangerous individuals all at once.
At this moment, after hearing Gensou's words and looking at the current situation, Tsunade began to understand, even if just a little.
Indeed.
Gensou had taken down Kaguya and another... Wait, why did that person look so familiar? The battle had ended, and peace had returned to the Shinobi World.
As for Gensou himself.
Tsunade looked at the techniques radiating from Gensou, each one causing her own instincts to blare with warnings. Then she looked at the shinobi on her side.
In the face of Gensou's ninjutsu onslaught, how many rounds could they withstand?
Whatever Gensou intended to do next, with such a difference in power, it would not cause much harm to the Shinobi World.
Thinking about it this way... it wasn't so bad.
At this moment!
It wasn't only Tsunade who noticed the vast difference in power.
Hiruzen, Jiraiya, and the others also realized the truth.
If their use of chakra was merely technique, without understanding its true essence, then those three on the other side had already mastered it to near perfection. Without the need for hand seals, they could effortlessly manipulate chakra at its most fundamental level.
For a moment, other than the endless clash of ninjutsu on the opposite side, the scene was engulfed in silence.
Until Jiraiya suddenly noticed something.
"Wait, isn't that Madara?"
Madara?
Compared to Gensou, the name Madara was something every Konoha shinobi had heard of since childhood.
Hiruzen and the others looked over instinctively.
Indeed, he looked exactly like the statue in the Valley of the End.
But why was Madara, who had supposedly been killed by the First Hokage, here?
Being stared at by the Konoha shinobi, Madara snorted coldly.
If he could move, he would have already crushed these Konoha ants who looked at him as if he was some sort of rare spectacle.
But right now, his situation was truly dire!
