Chapter 138 Resurrecting Uchiha Madara
Chapter 138 Resurrecting Uchiha Madara
As the Rinne Rebirth technique was used, faint heat appeared on the surface of Madara Uchiha's impure earth body, which was constructed from dust.
Then his appearance seemed to crack, and countless dust and debris fell off.
To everyone's astonishment, Madara Uchiha's aura became increasingly like that of a living person.
In stark contrast, Nagato's already emaciated body seemed to deteriorate even further in an instant.
"Nagato!"
Konan and Naruto exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
Once the Samsara Rebirth Technique was fully executed, Madara Uchiha closed his eyes and, for the first time in a long time, felt the wind blowing across his body. He seemed to smell the faint scent of blood from the battle.
Yes, this is what it feels like to be alive.
Madara's feelings didn't last long before Tsunade's fist came hurtling towards him.
Although his eyes were closed, Madara Uchiha still managed to dodge with great agility.
Just as she managed to dodge, her arm was bound by Jiraiya's hair. The next moment, Tsunade's monstrous fist continued to smash towards Uchiha Madara with perfect timing.
At the critical moment, Madara Uchiha grabbed Jiraiya's white hair with his backhand and yanked it hard.
Using the momentum, he turned sideways at an extremely clever angle. Although he couldn't completely avoid the attack, it was definitely the way to minimize the damage to himself.
Only a battle-hardened ninja with exceptional combat talent could make such a brilliant response in such a short time.
Tsunade's monstrous strength instantly shattered a large area of the ground.
However, Madara Uchiha took the opportunity to break free from Jiraiya's entanglement, but his left arm was still affected by Tsunade's fist and was badly swollen.
Madara Uchiha raised his arm and realized that his arm was fractured. The pain continued to surge, and he couldn't help but burst into unrestrained laughter.
"Hahahaha! This feeling...it's been so long since I've felt this way! Hahahaha!"
Madara Uchiha's reaction of being pleased rather than angry after being hit by Tsunade's monstrous strength was rather chilling.
Seeing Madara Uchiha successfully resurrected, Black Zetsu was overjoyed. He then ruthlessly dug out Nagato's Rinnegan, which instantly turned back into liquid and merged into the ground.
Nagato, whose eyes had been gouged out, collapsed to the ground with a thud, blood continuously flowing from his eye sockets.
"Nagato!"
Konan lunged forward, tightly embracing Nagato's emaciated body, only to helplessly discover that Nagato's breath was steadily weakening.
All she could do was call out Nagato's name over and over again, hoping that Nagato would come to his senses.
Just as Konan was in despair, a hand suddenly appeared and gently hovered above Nagato's heart.
Tears blurred Xiao Nan's vision. She suddenly looked up and saw Mavis's figure.
As if grasping at a last straw, Konan gripped Mavis's wrist tightly, pleading, "Please, Mavis, you must have a way to save Nagato, please save Nagato..."
Augustus, standing to the side, brushed aside Konan's hand and calmly said, "If you want him to live, don't interfere."
Xiao Nan was slightly taken aback, took a deep breath, and her trembling body gradually calmed down.
She withdrew her hand, looking at Mavis with hopeful eyes.
Mavis placed her hand on Nagato's chest, and golden light emanated from her hand.
A steady stream of magical energy flowed into Nagato's body.
As a massive amount of magical energy continued to flow in, Nagato's complexion visibly improved, and Konan's eyes gradually brightened.
But when she saw Mavis's expression, she was taken aback.
Despite the continuous input of magic, Mavis's expression showed no sign of relaxation, which made Konan's heart sink again.
"How is Nagato doing?" Konan finally couldn't help but ask.
Mavis finally stopped transmitting magic. Nagato's complexion improved, but his aura remained faint.
Seeing the mixture of anticipation and fear on Konan's face, Mavis sighed softly, "Nagato's life force seems to have been completely drained. Even with my magic support, I'm afraid she won't last much longer."
Konan's face turned ashen in an instant. She wiped the blood flowing from Nagato's empty eye sockets with trembling hands, her face pale.
"It's probably related to the ninjutsu he used when he was finally controlled," August speculated.
Konan said with a somber expression, "That's a Rinnegan ninjutsu called the Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique, which can revive others at the cost of the user's own life."
As for who Black Zetsu was manipulating Nagato's resurrection, it's already quite clear.
On the other side, Madara Uchiha, who kept his eyes closed, kept dodging the attacks.
"Fire Release: Dust Concealment Technique!"
The fire-style attack, mixed with a large amount of heat and dust, completely obscured everyone's vision, buying Black Zetsu and Madara time to reunite.
When everyone could see Madara Uchiha again, they saw him roughly stuffing the Rinnegan into his tightly closed eye sockets.
Seeing Nagato's tragic state, Naruto was enraged by Madara's actions and unleashed a massive Rasengan at Madara.
"You bastard, give Nagato's Rasengan back to him!!!"
Faced with the rapidly approaching Rasengan, Madara no longer dodged as before.
After both Rinnegan were placed back into their sockets, he slowly opened his closed eyes.
He successfully transplanted the Rinnegan into his own eye socket in such an extremely brutal way.
At this moment, the Rasengan was about to hit Madara.
"Success!"
Naruto's eyes lit up, but the smile froze on his face the next moment.
Just like Pain's ability to absorb ninjutsu with his Preta Path, the power of the Rasengan was completely absorbed by Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan!
Naruto stared in disbelief, then pointed a trembling finger at Madara Uchiha and shouted, "Aaaaah, you shameless thief!!"
Jiraiya: ......
Tsunade: ......
Uchiha Obito: ......
This kid really has some nerve...
Several people who knew Madara Uchiha the most thought the same thing.
Madara Uchiha paused slightly, looked at the boisterous Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, raised his chin slightly, and said, "I told you, this is my Rinnegan. I placed the Rinnegan on Nagato back then."
"What?!" Jiraiya exclaimed in shock, "You're the one who placed the Rinnegan on Nagato?!"
Jiraiya wasn't doubting Madara Uchiha's claims; a ninja who represented an extraordinary era wouldn't need to, and wouldn't stoop to, telling such a lie.
This fact is just too shocking.
Uchiha? Rinnegan? Sharingan? Nagato, Madara Uchiha, conspiracy...
Various thoughts flashed through Jiraiya's mind.
Feeling the surging power within his body and experiencing the sensation of blood flowing through his veins, Madara Uchiha felt a surge of intense emotions welling up within him.
The next moment, a blue chakra giant rose from the ground, roaring to the sky, making Uchiha Madara appear like a demon god.
He glanced in the direction of Konoha, then looked at the Konoha people present and said indifferently, "The Hokage of Konoha Village, with the most powerful Nine-Tails, is worthy of my first battle after my return to the ninja world!"
