"Gedo Mazo, Seal the Tailed Beasts!" The Gedo Mazo was the vessel for the Tailed Beasts, serving to contain the chakra of the Ten-Tails instead of sealing its body on the moon. It was also the tool used initially to extract the power of the Ten-Tails to create nine separate Tailed Beasts. Now, it was the means to reunite the Tailed Beasts' powers once more.
However, it was still lacking three full Tailed Beasts, rendering it unable to generate the power of the Ten-Tails. Even the Gedo Mazo could not be completely filled. Nonetheless, as the tool once capable of extracting and storing the Ten-Tails' power, once integrated with so many Tailed Beasts, the power of the Gedo Mazo would significantly increase.
"Roar!"
A devilish howl erupted from within the Gedo Mazo. The Tailed Beasts were all resealed inside, and then the six eyes on it slowly closed. After a brief pause, they instantly reopened, releasing a sinister aura. Evidently, the complete fusion of the six Tailed Beasts had unleashed an incredibly alarming chakra fluctuation from the Gedo Mazo.
"The power of six Tailed Beasts? Approaching the Ten-Tails' strength? The chakra emanating from it is much more sinister than the combined six Tailed Beasts from before."
Even Konan was slightly surprised. She hadn't expected Tobi to pull off such a stunt at this moment. However, after the surprise, she wore a mocking smile. At this point, did he still believe he could turn the tide?
"The Gedo Mazo? Then let me crush your last bit of confidence." Konan suddenly ceased her mocking smile, emitting a resentful shout. The Dark Susanoo directly dug out Sasuke's eyes, disregarding Sasuke's pain, and then, along with the eyes and Sasuke himself, hurled them into the sky.
"I told you I would make you die in the most painful way. Weren't you from a clan so dirty that parents and brothers would kill each other for a pair of eyes? So, I'll make you lose what you're most proud of, then let darkness engulf you, unable to descend into the underworld, forever tormented in darkness." It's terrifying how much a woman can hate someone, and looking at Konan and Guren was the best example.
After throwing Sasuke and his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan into the sky, Konan's eyes stared fixedly at Sasuke and his eyes. In the midst of Sasuke's terrifying scream, two black rays shot out from his eyes.
After the rays hit Sasuke's body and his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, they were instantly consumed by darkness. This was specifically prepared by Ryoha for Konan—to allow her to forever torment her enemies in the abyss of darkness, a punishment worthy of complete annihilation of their souls.
"Sasuke!" Itachi despairingly closed his eyes. He knew that even though he had one eye left and could still use Izanagi or Izanami, would that be effective? Obviously not.
From the genjutsu confrontation just now, he had already sensed the immense gap between himself and Kurenai. He was not afraid to admit that even Madara, who was struggling in the Tree World, would have no way to deal with Kurenai's genjutsu, only enduring abuse.
"Mental Crush!" As Sasuke vanished, Kurenai also unleashed her own jutsu, directly using her raging spiritual power to twist and crush Itachi's entire body into powder.
The so-called immortality of the Edo Tensei required most of the body to continuously regenerate. Now, even the tiniest part of the body was gone. How could it regenerate? Even if it could, without a body to regenerate into, the souls that had been reincarnated by the Edo Tensei would return to the underworld. Therefore, the so-called immortality, even for someone like Hidan, also had its limits. It all depended on how far this kind of immortality could go.
This pair of brothers, where one sacrificed everything for the other, and the other, foolishly, wouldn't cherish all that his brother had done—finally ended their lives. It was also unfortunate for Sasuke that he encountered such a major battle and the emergence of numerous geniuses. If not for that, even if his strength wasn't outstanding, with Itachi paving the way for him by sacrificing everything, he might have reached the level of strength of Madara."
"But in the end, with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, the strength was also impressive. At least, in the end, it wouldn't lose to the Five Kages. Of course, the Five Kages doesn't include Gaara and Mei. After all, these two are making progress every day, and now no one knows what level they've reached.
"Damn it, Gedo Mazo, Phantom Dragons Nine Consuming Seals!" The Gedo Mazo opened its hands, forming an incredibly massive chakra sphere. The terrifying energy fluctuations emitted from it made countless people extremely uneasy; this already surpassed the previous Tailed Beast Bombs.
"Oh? So, the brat actually resurrected the incomplete Ten-Tails?" Madara spoke with slight surprise. However, there was no time for him to indulge in astonishment now because Tsunade's fierce punch directly crushed his head. Fortunately, being an incomplete reincarnation brought forth by the Edo Tensei, as long as it didn't completely shatter instantly, there was nothing to worry about.
"You've got time to marvel; better think about your own situation." Tsunade snorted and once again kicked out a series of kicks that shattered Madara's swiftly regenerating body into pieces. Tsunade hadn't acted until now, but once she did, she turned the most formidable Madara's body into pieces, terrifying everyone. Even though Madara hadn't died and would soon fully recover, it was enough to shock everyone.
"Konan, stop playing around. I feel something is about to happen. Deal with these people." Ryoha's voice was calm but spread across the entire battlefield, heard by every ninja. Everyone's heart froze. What did he mean by "stop playing around"? Weren't all the enemies engaged in this ferocious battle playing around? Their guess was right. None of the participants from Ryoha's side had given their all in this battle.
"What's happening?" Tsunade questioned oddly, but her actions weren't slow. She floated into the air, raising one hand high. Since Ryoha said to stop playing, there had to be a reason.
"What if it's an incomplete Ten-Tails? Even if you had a complete one, it's useless. Die for me now, Cornerston of Zero!" The Dark Susanoo emitted a furious roar. Since it was no longer under Konan's control, it certainly wouldn't hold back anymore. A strike that shattered space pierced through space itself, arriving in front of the Gedo Mazo.
Tobi wanted to use his Susano'o to shift himself into another dimension, but under the envelopment of the Dark Susanoo's Cornerstone of Zero, an aura of space-shattering pressure loomed before him. The space around him had already shattered.
In such unstable space, it was impossible to use Space-Time Ninjutsu. If space-time was unstable, using such ninjutsu would be worse than suicide. Moreover, in the blink of an eye, he couldn't even think of using it. Dark Susanoo's Cornerstone of Zero had already enveloped him and the Gedo Mazo, obliterating and disintegrating them.
