Chapter 621: Battle of Six Path Powers Part-2
A/N:- I didn't expect the problem with my tooth to become such a huge issue. From a small tooth ache to gum infection, to decayed tooth, to RCT surgery and now wisdom teeth removal. I had quite a few accidents before and even they weren't as painful as the tooth problem. The pain is much more severe and unbearable. I can't eat properly and sometimes even speaking is painful. The next procedure is in a month and I have to rinse my teeth with luke warm salt water until then.
Everyone, please take care of your teeth and have a good day.

"Naruto!"
"Sasuke!"
Whoosh…
Both Naruto and Sasuke release their technique towards each other.
"Sage Art: Magnet Release: Sealing Rasengan,"
"Sage Art: White Rage Lightning: Chidori,"
Naruto uses the sealing prowess of Shukaku's chakra to create a powerful sealing Rasengan with several Fuinjutsu seals.
Sasuke also infuses nature energy in his Chidori to produce black lightning with white sparks.
"What are these two up to?"
Shoom…
Suddenly, Madara teleports in the middle of both of their attacks.
"What's going on? Why am I suddenly here?" The sudden movement startles Madara.
The Fuinjutsu runes cover Madara's body while the black-lightning paralyzes him, inhibiting Madara from any counterattack.
"This is bad!"
Shua…
A glimmer flashes across Madara's eyes.
"DISPLACE!"
Shoom…
A shadow similar to Madara escapes from his body.
Shua…
Madara vanishes from the spot and reappears a few meters away from the group.
"What just happened?" Naruto glances in Madara's direction.
"It's Madara's technique. He replaced his original body with one of his shadows." Sasuke's expression turns ugly.
"And now…"
"I know!" Naruto nods his head.
"I can sense four more of them." Naruto extends his palm and uses a Truth-seeking orb to create a Six Paths rod.
Bang…
He slams the rod in Madara's shadow and pins it to the ground.
"I have anchored this shadow to our reality by using the Six Path power. Now let's deal with Madara and his four shadows."
Hmm…
'Interesting!'
Madara glances at Naruto and Sasuke again in amazement.
'Individually, their power is no threat to me. But together, they possess a solid chance of thwarting my plan. Naruto can't see my Limbo but can feel their location with his heightened senses while Sasuke can see them clearly with his Rinnegan.'
Click…
Madara bites his thumb and wipes some blood on his palm.
'There is still some time before I awaken the Eternal Eye. So, I have to buy enough time for that moment.'
Swish… swish… swish…
Madara makes a series of quick hand signs and slams his palm on the ground.
"Summoning Jutsu,"
Poof… Poof… Poof…
Several massive puffs of white smoke cover the battlefield.
HAAH…
Naruto swiftly waves his Six Paths Rod to generate a powerful gust of wind to blow away the smoke. The smoke dissipates to reveal several summoning creatures with Rinnegan.
"That's Nagato's technique!"
Naruto quickly recognizes the summons.
Swirl… Swoosh…
A portal opens beside Madara, and Obito walks out of it.
"This is the original! Nagato was just borrowing Rinnegan's power." He comments.
"OBITOO!"
Naruto grits his teeth in anger.
"Hehe… Unfortunately, Obito is gone! I have taken over his body now." Black Zetsu's cackles echo in Naruto and Sasuke's ears.
"Seems he was hoping to right his wrongs. He was praying like a child, deep inside… whimpering… so that he could leave the future of this world in your care. How convenient would that have been for a sore, pathetic lose like, right?"
"YOUUU!!" Naruto grits his teeth.
Swish…
He makes a Truth-seeking spear and throws it towards the Black Zetsu.
Shua…
The Truth-seeking spear pierces through the air and rips off Black Zetsu from Obito's body, pinning him to a boulder.
BAM…
Obito's body lifelessly falls to the ground.
ROAR…
The several Rinnegan summons howls and roars. They rush towards Naruto and Sasuke in a frenzied state.
'I can't summon the Gamakichi and his pops. This battle is way too out of their league. In that case…"
Naruto makes a hand seal.
"Shadow clone Jutsu!"
Naruto creates several shadow clones.
"Let's go!"
The shadow clones rush towards the charging Rinnegan summons and clash with them.
Meanwhile, Madara also makes his move. He infuses a large amount of chakra into his palm and raises his arm in the sky.
"Mugen Ten Shin: Tengai Shinsei,"
FWOOSH…
Suddenly, the clouds above the battlefield clear up. Several burning meteors spanning a radius of several hundred meters appear above the battlefield.
The sheer speed and mass of the meteors push away the surrounding clouds and air, generating powerful pressure on the ground.
Gulp…
Several shinobis, including Kages and other elite groups, gulp their saliva in fear.
"I… I can't even comprehend the scale of battle that's happening over there." Rasa clenches his fists.
"I have never felt this powerless before!" Sakumo, who was standing beside Rasa, clenches his fists.
"You aren't the only one with such feelings!" Onoki grits his teeth while gazing at the sky.
A glint flashes across his eyes and he turns to Tsunade and Mei, who were beside him tending to the members of the Seven Shadow Sins.
"Senju Princess, I have decided! Iwagakure will provide full support to Konoha in their battle against the otherworldly invaders. We won't hide any secret and will share all our information and ancient records if we manage to survive this war."
The Raikage wipes his tears while holding his unconscious brother.
"Likewise, Kumogakure will also assist in the best of our abilities and won't hold anything back." A also speak with full resolve.
"Now, our alliance is truly one. Not just in name, but in spirit, too." Mei nods at them.
"Respected Kages, the boats are ready! Please prepare to evacuate."
Several boats appear on the coastline of the drifting continent.
"Let's go!" Mei takes the lead to walk towards the boat.
"But… the battle…"
A few brave commanders and captains have an unwilling expression on their faces.
"When the headquarters issued the order to desert the battlefield; it just didn't apply to the elite shinobis but also to every Kage, commander, and captain. The life of every shinobi is priceless. It's not worth it to throw it away when there is no chance of victory for us." Mei's voice echoes throughout the field.
Under her piercing gaze, several shinobis from Kirigakure board the vessels of the Trinity Corp.
The rest of Kage also follows suit. Looking at their back, the rest of the shinobis also make up their mind and follow their lead.
"Let's go!"
With the sound of a horn, the ships depart from the battlefield. The war is already lost, but a light of hope still shines bright in the hearts of these shinobis.
'Perhaps all is not lost yet! Perhaps there is still hope!'
SHOOM…
At this moment, a bright light flickers through the dark sky of the battlefield.
Bzzt… Crackle… crackle…
Black clouds reappear on the horizon. Purple Lightning flickers across the cloud.
Bang… bang…
Several bolts of lightning strike the ground. The black clouds cover a vast expanse of almost fifty square km.
Crackle… crackle…
Arcs of deep purple lightning jump around Sasuke's body. He slowly opens his eyes and white lightning flickers across them.
Sasuke raises his hand in the air and fires a bolt of purple lightning toward the sky.
RUMBLE… RUMBLE…
A gigantic vortex of energy appears amidst the clouds. The giant vortex absorbs a large amount of nature energy from the surroundings.
BOOM…
A giant bolt of lightning falls from the sky, tearing apart several meteors, and strikes the ground to create a massive crater.
ROARR…
A gigantic purple lightning wolf jumps out of the crater. The giant wolf has white lightning as its mane and there are deep purple horns on its forehead. Numerous black six-path markings are spread across its entire body.
AWOO…
THE wolf releases a devastating roar toward the sky, unleashing a beam of black lightning mixed with sparks of white.
Bzzt… Boom… Boom…
Several lightning bolts fall from the sky and turn into small blue lightning wolves.
AWOO…
The wolf howls and leaps in the air, leading its lightning wolf pack to charge toward the falling meteors.
"Sage Art: Tempest Release: Ten'nō-Arashi-Raijū (Heaven Maelstrom Charge of Thunder God Raiju),"
"Naruto leave these meteors to me. Take care of Madara's shadows and summons!"
"Leave them to me!" Naruto pumps his fists and rushes towards the incoming, charging hippo.
"Let's see what is stronger, my fist or your armor!"
Naruto's right hand glows with a golden light. He concentrates most of his chakra into his fist.
HAAH…
BANG…
Naruto's fist strikes the horn of the charging hippo.
Bang…
The horn of the hippo shatters into dust. The force and chakra of Naruto's attack travel through the hippo's body and annihilate it. The flesh and blood of the hippo rains down on the battlefield.
AWOOO…
A giant three-headed dog ignores the death of its pal and attacks Naruto regardless of any consequences.
"I remember this dog! It multiplies upon physical trauma! In that case…"
Naruto extends his palm.
"Sage Art: Lava Release: Molten Rasenshuriken,"
A massive orange-red Rasengan manifests in Naruto's palm. He throws it toward the charging hellhound.
The Rasenshuriken expands quickly and engulfs the hellhound.
"Burst!"
Naruto crosses his arms and the Rasenshuriken explodes, raising a massive pillar of lava in the sky. The hellhound disappears without leaving any ashes.
Naruto's clones also wield his Six Paths power and deal with the rest of the summons and shadows.
"I will seal these shadows first!"
Swish… swish… swish…
Naruto makes a series of hand signs. Numerous Fuinjutsu runes appear around him.
"Sealing Formation: Eternal Decapitation Seal,"
The seal glows with a bright light and engulfs Madara's shadows.
"It never hurt to be more careful!"
Naruto uses three Six Paths Rods to seal the exit and entry nodes of the sealing formation.
"Sasuke!"
After sealing them, he turns towards Sasuke.
