"Do you wish to dance as well?"
Uchiha Madara laughed wildly.
His body suddenly surged with power as he activated his newly perfected Lapis Lazuli Green Steel Body. With explosive montum, he launched himself toward the Ōtsutsuki warrior before him.
Madara attacked relentlessly.
Even when Six Paths Senjutsu strikes landed on his body, he remained completely unfazed, fighting like a madman. His fists rained down continuously upon the Ōtsutsuki clan mber.
The Ōtsutsuki warrior's eyes glead slightly.
In the next mont, his body visibly recovered from the damage.
"A regenerative ability…"
Madara's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Interesting. Let's see just how far you can go."
However, Madara soon discovered that his opponent possessed another ability through the Rinnegan.
"Kōryūmyōjin!"
The technique instantly caught Madara's attention.
It resembled the power of Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki, who could absorb ninjutsu and release it from his palms after amplifying it.
But the ability used by the Ōtsutsuki warrior before him was slightly different.
It was replication.
The concept sounded simple, but its effect was terrifying.
It allowed him to perfectly replicate another person's ability—a complete 100% copy.
Moreover, it wasn't limited to copying a technique once and using it once. The abilities could be stored and accumulated.
At this mont, Madara's Lapis Lazuli Green Steel Body had already been replicated.
One had to know that this technique was sothing Madara had developed through martial arts training and chakra refinent.
Yet it had still been copied.
Madara quickly analyzed his opponent's abilities.
Regeneration.
Replication.
Together, they created an extrely troubleso combination—almost invincible.
But Madara simply smiled.
"It's a sha…"
"That you ran into ."
"I am Uchiha Madara."
anwhile, the battlefield below was already engulfed in smoke and explosions.
The massive conflict had shaken the entire Ninja World.
Through various communication networks, even ordinary civilians had learned that extraterrestrial invaders had descended upon their planet.
Inside a high-level military command center, a middle-aged officer stared at the large battlefield display.
"Mobilize the missile units for aerial bombardnt."
"We've invested enormous research funds every year. Now it's ti to show their value."
"You all know our newest Chakra missiles have a penetration rate of fifty percent. That's more than enough to inflict heavy losses on the enemy."
Over the past decade, technological developnt across the Ninja World had advanced rapidly.
Although they had not yet developed planet-destroying weapons, the integration of chakra and modern weapon systems had progressed trendously.
A fifty percent chakra penetration rate ant that when two attacks of equal power collided—one unit versus one unit—the missile's damage would effectively reach 1.5 units.
Defensive ninjutsu would require significantly greater chakra output to block it.
"Launch a first wave bombardnt."
"Give them a taste of their own dicine."
"Then await further orders from central command."
These instructions ultimately ca from the central command headquarters.
At the mont, the one directing the overall battle strategy was Nara Shikamaru.
Inside the central command base, Shikamaru sat calmly.
A shōgi board was laid out in front of him.
Around him, massive display screens showed real-ti images of the battlefield.
The entire planet was currently enveloped by a giant barrier.
Using the barrier's sensory network, the command center could observe almost every corner of the battlefield.
It was sowhat similar to the Telescope Technique once used by the Third Hokage, but the scale of this surveillance system was on an entirely different level.
For the planetary barrier, battlefield observation was rely a minor function.
Due to the imnse destructive power of jōnin-level combatants, the battlefield had already expanded across thousands of miles.
Indiscriminate bombardnt was clearly inefficient.
Although the enemy numbers were massive, they were too widely dispersed. Blind attacks would only waste ammunition.
After carefully considering the situation, Shikamaru calmly issued his orders.
When the commander of the missile division received them, he imdiately smiled.
"Targeted harassnt bombing… dividing the battlefield… controlling the combat rhythm."
"That's exactly what we specialize in."
He quickly began giving new commands.
"Connect the battlefield database to the missile system."
"Identify chakra signatures and perform tracking strikes."
"All allied shinobi chakra signatures are already registered."
"Perfect."
"This technology was just developed and hasn't even been officially announced yet."
"Looks like today it'll shock everyone."
Soon, the missile units began mobilizing.
Fighter aircraft soon appeared over the battlefield.
So were new unmanned combat drones, while others were piloted by elite shinobi.
High above the battlefield, one aircraft descended rapidly.
Inside the cockpit, Jiraiya grinned widely.
"Yo! Ace fighter pilot Jiraiya-sama has arrived!"
He looked down at the countless black figures swarming across the land.
Activating the aircraft's radar system, he saw the White Zetsu army marked in red across the targeting screen.
Jiraiya's grin slowly turned mischievous.
He decisively pressed the launch button.
A massive missile shot downward.
Midway through its descent, the missile split apart into dozens of smaller cluster bombs.
This was specifically designed to avoid friendly-fire incidents.
In the sky, similar scenes were happening everywhere.
The cluster bombs seed to possess eyes of their own, locking onto the White Zetsu forces before detonating violently.
The battlefield was instantly filled with explosions.
The White Zetsu army attempted to counter the attacks with ninjutsu, intercepting many of the incoming missiles.
But the power of the chakra-enhanced bombs was too great.
The fifty percent chakra penetration allowed the explosions to partially break through their defenses.
Even when so attacks were blocked, the remaining force still struck them like a mountain collapsing.
Within a single bombing run, hundreds of fighter jets forced thousands of White Zetsu out of the battle.
At the sa ti, so of the White Zetsu quickly adapted to the situation.
They abandoned long-range attacks and began engaging the shinobi in close-quarters combat.
By sticking within one or two ters of the ninja forces, they effectively prevented the Imperial Army from launching another bombing wave.
"These guys are pretty clever… they ca up with a counterasure so quickly!"
Although the chakra missiles had target identification systems, no one believed they could avoid harming allies at such extrely close distances.
If a White Zetsu was practically standing on top of a shinobi, even a precision strike would inevitably cause friendly casualties.
In several areas of the battlefield, Ōtsutsuki clan mbers also joined the fight directly.
One of them raised his hand calmly.
"Shinra Tensei."
A powerful repulsive force erupted outward.
Everything within the surrounding area—rocks, explosions, and attacking shinobi—was violently blown away.
A Super Kage–level Ōtsutsuki warrior alone was enough to hold back hundreds of jōnin-level shinobi.
However, the greatest strength of ninja had always been teamwork.
Using chakra link formations, many shinobi connected their chakra together, amplifying their power dramatically.
Because of this coordination, the Ninja World's forces were able to withstand enemies three tis their number.
With additional support from the Uzumaki Empire's technology and weapons, they were even beginning to suppress portions of the White Zetsu army.
Soon after, the cha units also entered the battlefield.
Their massive armored bodies possessed extrely powerful defenses. Most White Zetsu attacks barely scratched their outer plating.
And with their enormous size, the machines simply crushed many White Zetsu beneath their feet.
At that mont, a loud voice echoed across the battlefield.
"The Toad Sage of Mount Myōboku, Jiraiya, has arrived!"
"You invaders of the Ninja World—today you will co, but you will not return!"
Jiraiya had just finished a bombing run and descended from the sky.
Now he piloted a giant combat cha, landing directly in the middle of the battlefield.
Before joining the fight, he casually pulled out a small notebook titled:
"The Legendary Autobiography of Jiraiya."
After carefully putting it back away, he looked up at the battlefield.
The towering cha he piloted imdiately drew attention everywhere it moved.
Not far away, Tsunade also noticed Jiraiya's arrival.
But instead of relief, she frowned.
"What is that idiot doing?"
"That cha alone is enough to give him Six Paths–level combat power. Why is he wasting ti fighting those cannon-fodder White Zetsu?"
Tsunade watched as Jiraiya rampaged across the battlefield with the cha, occasionally battling a few Ōtsutsuki squad leaders.
Her tone carried obvious dissatisfaction.
Just monts ago, she herself had been slightly overconfident and challenged a Six Paths–level opponent.
In recent years, Tsunade had participated in nurous chakra and biological research experints.
Although her combat strength had not declined, she could no longer be considered a pure frontline combatant.
However, relying on various enhanced techniques and experintal thods, she now possessed the ability to fight against Six Paths–level enemies.
In fact, the Ninja World had already developed a complete pathway toward Six Paths–level power.
Tsunade herself was only one step away from fully reaching that level.
Her current strength barely touched the threshold of the Six Paths realm.
But that alone was already enough for her to be counted among the Six Paths–level fighters on the battlefield.
