Chapter 150: Chapter 150 - The Battle Between the South and the North 17.
[Chapter Size: 2100 Words.]
Third Person POV
Northern kingdoms.

The chakra continued to expand across the battlefield, making everything—even the ground—tremble as the hundreds of thousands of people suffocated under that pressure.
"What is this?!" Tassia murmured, looking scared at the source of the power, not knowing exactly where it was coming from. There was no manifestation of chaos energy there, but it was terrifying, as if the air itself was heavy.
"Who is doing this...?!" Francesca also felt the same desperation, unable to continue fighting as she struggled to breathe in the face of whatever it was.
But it wasn't just her. All the mages stopped fighting each other as the pressure remained suffocating. Even the soldiers, trying to stay in combat, felt the immense weight invading the environment, immediately stopping, trying in some way to seek any oxygen in the air, many even dropping their weapons and placing their hands on their necks.
The horses began to flee uncontrollably, and no one could contain them anymore. Even King Thorne and General Temeriano couldn't react as their horses simply bolted. The King of Sodden fell to the ground, and the general lost control of his horse as it fled while he was trying to stop it, but without success, as the horse ran off with him still on it.
No one knew exactly what was happening in the midst of the Nilfgaardian army, but it was something greater than anything seen in this war. Of the 200,000 people still alive on that battlefield, all felt the pressure.
The same was happening to the Nilfgaardian general, who couldn't control his horse and fell to the ground, dazed. He saw his men also trying to stand, but many were desperate. His gaze was now pure fear. What had once been a war with Nilfgaardians trying to conquer the North was becoming something neither he nor his mages could handle, and all of it was coming from that side of the battlefield, casting doubts about the future awaiting everyone there and what this meant.
Meanwhile, the most affected were Madara's four enemies, who stared at him with dazed looks, feeling the greatest pressure from the chakra Madara had raised over them.
What they were seeing now was nothing compared to the boy they had been facing until now. This was different from any Uchiha they had fought before, because nothing compared to the density of the chakra they were witnessing at that moment. It was something entirely different.
Around Madara, a glow appeared, revealing his chakra, much more bluish than usual, and incredibly intense and voluminous. Even Kenzu, who always got irritated with Madara, had fear in his eyes at that moment. The other three companions shared the same feeling.
"What... what is he?" Daigo murmured with a dry voice.
"You don't need to know... let's begin. After all, I'm going to eliminate all of you." Madara said, each word in a calm tone, as his Sharingan reached its peak. The world seemed different under that gaze. The genjutsu replica he had used on Eithné was nothing compared to what they were feeling now.

The system kept showing notifications as more and more forces were generated within his body, feeling all of his power. A series of information triggered in his mind through the system, including jutsus, techniques, and abilities.
Despite this, his chakra remained the same amount, as it could not be altered. He had ten minutes to use all his strength. The question was: why simply end this, when he could prove the real extent of his power? It was this thought that guided him as he began to act.
After ceasing the release of his chakra, he stopped, and Madara began making hand seals at a speed much greater than before.
"He's... he's doing something!" The leader of the four exclaimed, murmuring, realizing the combination of seals. It was something unknown, but terrifying, about to happen.
When Madara completed the set, he slammed his hands onto the ground. Immediately, the ground began to tremble, followed by enormous roots emerging from the earth, cracking everything around them with a deafening roar that could be heard across the battlefield.
"What is this?" None of them knew the Mokuton element or had ever witnessed this before. They stared in shock as the ground began to form shapes. Below Madara, the ground cracked further, and then something began to rise. The head of a wooden dragon emerged from the earth, rising imposingly, carrying trunks into the sky as it let out a deafening roar.
"Wood Style: Wooden Dragon Jutsu!" Madara exclaimed as he activated the technique.
The dragon continued to rise, standing out on the battlefield. The people around looked in surprise, only able to catch their breath after Madara's uncontrolled chakra finally stopped expanding, but the surprise didn't end there with that creature emerging.
"What is that thing?" Many wondered, stunned."It doesn't matter! Let's just defeat him!" Daigo shouted, molding clay explosives in his hands and throwing them at the dragon, while small birds took larger shapes, emerging from his hands and charging toward the creature.
The attacks exploded directly on the dragon's head in mid-air, but, to the horror of these shinobis, they caused no damage at all. Not even the most powerful explosions seemed to affect the creature. The giant snakes that had been summoned to the battlefield before now seemed insignificant compared to the dragon Madara had created. When the dragon looked at them with its fierce gaze, the shinobis automatically took a step back.
In the next moment, Madara made just one hand seal, and the dragon responded, roaring before charging toward the four ninjas, who jumped desperately to dodge.
The dragon shattered the ground around it and destroyed the entire area while everything trembled, creating a cloud of smoke. When the smoke cleared, the dragon reappeared, biting the head of one of the giant snakes and easily ripping it off the body. The other snake even tried to bite its neck, but the wooden dragon quickly pushed it away with its superior strength.
The entire battlefield fell silent for a few seconds, just watching the battle between the wooden dragon and the snakes. The second snake was eliminated quickly in the next moment, just as easily as the first.
While the ninjas tried to regroup, Madara began making a new sequence of hand seals, eager to see how they would react to the next jutsu.
"Wood Style: World of the Forest Technique!" He completed.
The moment he finished, the entire battlefield began to shake. The soldiers from both sides, who were at a considerable distance from the fight, looked around in fear once again, unable to do anything but shout in panic.
"What's happening? We have to get out of here!" They screamed, while the ground around them exploded. Giant branches started to appear, turning the terrain into absolute chaos.
"Huh? What is this?" A mage at a distance managed to murmur before seeing huge roots emerging, forming giant trees that grew, advancing toward the sky.
"For the love of the gods... what are we seeing here?" Another mage murmured, incredulous, as an entire forest was born before their eyes.
"What power is this?! Is this your true strength?" Yennefer, who was watching from afar, murmured, unable to believe what she was seeing.
While the mages and soldiers at a distance could see it growing in the middle of the battlefield, they didn't know the real terror of those who were inside. In the center of the forest, thousands of Nilfgaardian soldiers were being swallowed by the trees. Even the Northern soldiers began to retreat, terrified by the sight and unwilling to get involved any further. Chaos reigned.
"We have to get out of here now!" Soldiers screamed as they ran in panic. The Nilfgaardian army, which surrounded the battlefield, collapsed completely. About 20,000 men were sucked in or crushed by the trees that kept growing, expanding in all directions.
Inside the forest, Kenzu had his mask destroyed immediately and only had one heart left, while another ninja who had lost his head to Madara before, Akuro, had his head swallowed by the trees as he screamed helplessly.
His comrades tried to help, but the situation was uncontrollable. The one with Deidara's powers, Daigo, had one of his arms crushed by giant branches, losing it while roaring in pain.
The remaining mages and soldiers just watched, wondering if what they were seeing was real. Creating a single tree would already be a formidable task for a mage, but what they were witnessing was unimaginable. An entire forest had grown in the middle of the battlefield, and no one there could comprehend or face such power.
Madara still stood out atop the dragon, being the highest point there, observing his creation with a satisfied gaze. He began to bring his two hands together as a glow began to expand from his body, after all, his enemies were not dead yet.
"That boy, is it him...?" Tissaia looked stunned at the wooden dragon, her face showing fear as she saw Madara in his adult form. Not even in her wildest dreams could she have known that Madara was this powerful. Francesca, like the other mages, could also see him, but she didn't recognize him from so far away, trying to distance herself as quickly as possible.
Madara began to shine with blue energy exploding from his body as if it were pure chakra, and a skeleton began to emerge around him. The structure grew quickly, taking form until it became a gigantic creature 15 meters tall, surrounded by bluish energy, now atop the wooden dragon. The giant began making hand seals along with Madara inside it. When the jutsu was completed, a massive fire attack was launched, descending upon the forest.
The flames spread with terrifying intensity, far beyond any jutsu Madara had used before. The enemy ninjas, stunned, tried to escape desperately. The only ninja with control over the water element tried to contain the fire, but the flames were overwhelming, emerging from all sides. Even the water jutsu, usually stronger against fire, began to falter. It didn't take long for the ninja to be engulfed by the flames.
Madara seemed unfazed by the desperation of the shinobis or fleeing soldiers. Nilfgaardians inside the forest were falling like helpless prey, being slaughtered in masses. He saw the ninjas trying to escape in the next moment, running toward the end of the burning forest, leaving Akuro behind.
"If you want to try to run, so be it," Madara said indifferently, canceling the giant's manifestation. Before his enemies could truly escape, the wooden dragon advanced toward them, exploding with a colossal impact. The opponents were thrown in all directions without being able to react, falling to the ground like discarded dolls.
"Is this all?" Madara murmured as he landed on the ground, looking at them with contempt. "You don't seem so strong now. You're even trying to run..." He looked at them with arrogance.
Once again, he crossed his arms, leaving the wooden dragon resting, inactive, on the ground. His enemies got up, looking stunned.
They were all wounded, exhausted, and fear shone in their eyes, clearly incapable of fighting against the current Madara.
"How is this possible? What power is this? Who are you?" the leader murmured, his voice trembling.
"There's nothing to explain," Madara responded coldly. "After all, I've already told you who I am. I am the ghost of the Uchiha."
Without another word, Madara brought his hands together, and wooden clones began to appear around him. In total, sixteen identical copies appeared, each one jumping to face the four shinobi. Now, there were four clones for each of them.
"I was facing 4 of you at the same time; now it seems more balanced," Madara commented sarcastically as he watched the impending battle.
"Do you know what a Susano'o is?" he asked indifferently as all the clones stood before their adversaries, while the original would not even interfere in the fight.
None of them answered Madara's question.
"Well... it's time for you to learn."
Suddenly, the four clones facing each opponent began to shine, revealing Madara's overwhelming chakra. They didn't even have time to see Madara using the Susanoo atop the dragon, but now it would be different.
