"Daytime Tiger!"
Might Guy threw a punch, and the air compressed to the extreme formed a white fierce tiger that roared as it tore toward Madara.
The power of this strike was immense—ordinary ninjas would not dare to take it head-on.
However, the one facing it was Six Paths Madara!
Madara did not even move. His Rinnegan merely swept over it indifferently.
Limbo: Border Jail!
Four invisible shadows instantly appeared. Two of them easily intercepted and shattered the overwhelmingly powerful "Daytime Tiger", while the other two attacked Might Guy from strange angles.
Relying on instinct and the speed limit of the Seventh Gate, Guy dodged, yet one of the shadows still grazed him. The sound of his shoulder blade cracking rang out, and blood splashed.
"Guy!" Kakashi cried out. His Mangekyō Sharingan activated at full power as he attempted to use Kamui to stop the shadows’ attacks and create an opportunity for Guy.
"Kamui!"
Kakashi’s interference had a slight effect, restraining part of the shadows’ movements.
But Madara, who possessed two Rinnegan, could control four shadows at the same time.
Might Guy could not get close to Madara at all. A taijutsu ninja unable to approach his opponent could not launch an attack.
The final outcome spoke for itself.
Namikaze Minato was currently transferring the Nine-Tails into Naruto’s body, so only Kakashi and Senju Tobirama could go to support.
Unfortunately, even with the three of them working together, they were no match for Madara.
Especially Senju Tobirama, who was directly pinned to the ground by Uchiha Madara using a black rod.
Just like how Renya had pinned him earlier.
Soon, countless wounds appeared on Might Guy’s body, and the blue steam began to fluctuate unstably.
Kakashi, having overused the Mangekyō, was on the verge of exhausting both his chakra and ocular power. Half-kneeling on the ground, he gasped for breath.
"To reach this level using only taijutsu is worthy of praise." Uchiha Madara looked down at the battered yet unyielding Might Guy, his tone calm. "But this is where it ends."
Under normal circumstances, he would not mind playing with his opponent for a while.
But right now, casting the Infinite Tsukuyomi was the most important matter!
He raised his hand. The four Limbo shadows simultaneously gathered power, preparing to deliver a fatal blow to Might Guy and Kakashi.
Guy looked at the indifferent Madara in the sky, then at the exhausted Kakashi, and finally at Senju Tobirama, who was anxious but unable to move because a black rod had pinned him to the ground.
His gaze became increasingly resolute.
"It’s coming!" Renya knew Guy was about to unleash his ultimate move.
"Preparing to open the Eight Gates?" Uchiha Madara said with interest.
He had fought ninjas who used the Eight Gates before. The red steam form of the Eighth Gate was indeed very powerful.
But before his current self, who had become the Ten-Tails’ jinchūriki, the Eight Gates Formation seemed somewhat insufficient.
"Eight Gates..." Shimura Danzō’s eyes flickered as he muttered to himself.
If Might Guy opened the Eight Gates, could he defeat Madara who had become the Ten-Tails’ jinchūriki?
If not, then in this spacetime there would no longer be anyone capable of stopping him!
Could it be that there was truly no chance left?
"Kakashi... it seems... this will be my final... youth."
Might Guy’s voice was calm.
Kakashi seemed to realize something and had just opened his mouth to stop him—but it was already too late.
"Eight Gates, the Eighth Gate of Death—Open!"
Boom!!!
A chakra storm beyond description exploded outward with Might Guy at its center!
It was no longer blue steam, but red steam emitting scorching heat waves!
That was power gained by burning one’s life.
Guy’s skin cracked open. His blood evaporated into red mist, and every strand of his hair stood upright like burning flames.
The ground beneath his feet instantly cracked apart. Even small stones defied gravity and floated into the air before melting into powder.
He bent his body and gathered power. The surrounding space seemed to distort from the sheer terror of that force.
"Is this really power a human can unleash?" Shimura Danzō showed a horrified expression.
It was the first time he had seen someone open the Gate of Death, and he could not believe such power existed.
"That’s a bit over the limit." Renya smacked his lips as he felt the terrifying destructive force.
Fortunately it was Six Paths Madara. If it were anyone else, they would probably have been kicked into a cloud of blood.
But Renya was not afraid.
Although Night Guy unleashed through the Gate of Death was powerful, its duration was extremely limited.
And most importantly, the attack had to actually hit the target.
As long as one used the Flying Thunder God to escape, after Guy finished that kick there would be no need to deliver a finishing blow—he would die on his own.
For the first time, Six Paths Madara revealed a serious expression on his face, even carrying a trace of... anticipation?
He put away his earlier casual attitude, and the four Limbo shadows returned to his body.
Clearly, he intended to take Might Guy’s attack head-on.
Renya had always been unable to understand why Six Paths Madara did not dodge and insisted on taking that Night Guy kick directly.
What if he really got kicked to death?
He could only attribute it to Madara’s absolute confidence in his own strength.
If it were him, he would have already used the Flying Thunder God to escape, leaving Guy to gather power here alone.
After charging for a while, he would die anyway.
"Night Guy!"
Might Guy’s figure disappeared.
No—it was not disappearance, but speed that had reached the absolute limit!
In the sky, it left behind a massive dragon-shaped trail of burning red chakra!
"Let me see your full-power strike!"
Six Paths Madara showed excitement on his face, with no intention of dodging. freewebnøvel.com
The blood-red giant dragon collided violently with the Six Paths Madara floating in the air!
At the center of the energy explosion, space itself seemed to tear open, and a pitch-black spatial crack flashed past in an instant.
The violent shockwave spread outward in a circle, lifting the already shattered earth once again.
Even though Renya and the others were far away, the storm blew their hair wildly, and they could barely keep their eyes open.
The light and steam slowly dissipated.
The first figure to appear was Might Guy.
Like a broken puppet, he fell from the sky. The skin all over his body was charred black and cracked, smoke rising from it, his life force extremely weak.
Having opened the Eighth Gate of Death, he had truly burned himself out.
And in the sky...
Six Paths Madara’s figure was still floating there!
He was not completely unharmed.
The white robe on his body had large areas of damage and scorch marks, and half of his body had completely disappeared.
Clearly, Might Guy’s final strike had dealt him a solid and devastating blow.
"Incredible taijutsu..." Madara gasped heavily. "With a mortal body, you injured the body of the Six Paths... I acknowledge you. Among all those I have fought, your taijutsu is unmatched!"
As his words fell, a despairing scene occurred.
The body that had been heavily damaged by Night Guy began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even the damaged clothes returned to their original state!
Aside from a slight fluctuation in his aura, Six Paths Madara had almost completely recovered!
This was the terrifying aspect of the Ten-Tails’ jinchūriki—fatal wounds in the ordinary sense simply did not exist for him.
"But the brilliance of mortals lasts only an instant."
Six Paths Madara’s gaze swept across the dying Guy and Kakashi and the others who showed despair. His eyes once again turned cold and indifferent.
"Your struggle ends here."
