Bloodline Limit - Chapter 544

A said with a solemn expression. Except for him, who responded with a tone that could not discern if it was true or false while Mei’s eyes flickered, the other three Kages all nodded in agreement. It seemed that Mei’s strength was constantly increasing, and with her tendency to keep her trump cards hidden until a life-or-death moment, her confidence was truly justified. Even when facing Madara, she could remain calm, making it difficult for others to determine whether she still had many hidden cards.

“Hehe, for your Fire Release obtained from my grandfather’s cells, it’s indeed powerful. However, don’t even mention facing true Wood Release. Even if it’s my grandfather’s Wood Release, with just your Fire Release, you won’t be able to ignite it. Let me show you what real Wood Release is.”

Tsunade’s voice carried an air of disdain and dominance. Once again, a forest appeared within the flames. However, this time, it was different from the previous forest. This forest seemed to carry the momentum of a phoenix rising from the ashes, and with an indomitable life force, it suddenly swept across the snowy landscape, enveloping all Five Kages and Madara within.

“Ah!!” The Five Kages immediately tried to struggle and escape from the forest, but the serpent-like wooden branches, roots, and twigs entwined and bound their bodies in an instant.

The moment these touched their bodies, they began extracting chakra. Tsunade didn’t want the battle to end too quickly, so instead of directly using the power of the Sage Release or Sage Art, which would extract life force from the beginning, she began by extracting chakra.

“Lightning Release – Heavy Storm!”

“Boil Release – Boiling Mist !”

“Sage Mode activated, Sage Art: Fire Release Super Big Flame Bullet!” Helping their bodies, which were bound, Jiraiya and Fukasaku used their respective techniques. Although Jiraiya could now activate Sage Mode on his own, with a longer duration than Naruto’s, it was the final battle, so he allowed Fukasaku and Shima to join in.

“Sand Burial!” Gaara, using a thin layer of sand covering his skin, protected himself and used the Sand Burial against all the trees, including those binding him. One shouldn’t underestimate Gaara’s sand at this point.

Since the battle with Sasori and learning that his sand was countered by the Iron Sand, Gaara had been making improvements. He finally developed a new form of controlling sand, surpassing the Iron Sand, called Sand Steel Jutsu. While the Third Kazekage controlled iron sand, Gaara controlled sand with steel-like properties. This was a bloodline limit that Gaara had developed independently, surpassing the Third Kazekage’s Iron Sand.

“A new technique? It seems even more formidable than the Third Kazekage’s Iron Sand.” After using Dust Release to escape, Onoki sighed at the sight of Gaara’s sand once again, unable to help but marvel at the era of young talents. Not only Ryoha, Tsunade, and others had developed terrifying bloodline limits, but even the young Kazekage had surpassed the Third Kazekage’s Iron Sand Jutsu with his own Sand Steel Jutsu.

“Sharingan: Amaterasu!” Nevertheless, Madara directly used Susanoo, but unfortunately, the trees hadn’t burned completely before new ones appeared, and the speed of Amaterasu couldn’t keep up with the pace of the forest.

“Wood Release: Multiple Wood Clones.” Helpless, Madara resorted to using Wood Release Clones, and in quite a large number.

“Sharingan: Susanoo!” Surprisingly, all these Wood Clones simultaneously activated Susanoo, and although the one at the forefront was only a matured form, it was still quite astonishing.

“Susano’o, huh? Unfortunately, your Susano’o is too weak. Let the true power of the Wood Release: Nativity of the World of Trees be revealed.” Tsunade watched with interest as these struggling figures were constantly attacked within the Tree World. Except for Ryoha, who could resist her, no one else could. Until now, she hadn’t seriously entered the battle. Forget about using the power of the Sage Release, even the Wood Release she was using at the moment hadn’t displayed its full power.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”

The continuous sound of air being torn apart echoed throughout the Tree World. Faced with the onslaught of thousands of wooden attacks—lashes, bindings, constraints, and attacks from roots hidden underground—all Five Kages and Madara were exhausted just trying to cope.

Many of Madara’s Wood Clones were swiftly bound by the numerous wooden structures and started having their chakra forcefully extracted. In an instant, each Susano’o, due to the depletion of chakra, disintegrated and dissipated. The Wood Release Clones of Madara, which had summoned them, naturally also met the same fate.

“This is the true power of the World of Trees for bringing peace. It is indeed fearsome.” Raikage’s hand seals never ceased, constantly swinging, but at this point, he was already wounded in multiple places. The others weren’t much better. Although Madara, who could use Wood Release, could heal his injuries, it seemed like he was fine, but if this continued, sooner or later, they would be worn down.

“Tobi, Uchiha Sasuke, come at me.” While the Five Kages and Madara struggled for survival within the Tree World, a fierce battle unfolded in the distance. Konan confronted Tobi and Uchiha Sasuke alone.

“Hehe, Konan, why such hostility? Do you really think you can win against us?” Tobi grinned, seemingly not taking Konan seriously.

“For someone about to die, no need for much talk. Paper Person of God Technique!” Konan had already thought of a countermeasure. After all, she was quite familiar with the Rinnegan abilities, especially the ability of Nagato’s Rinnegan. As long as she used it properly, killing these two was not a problem.

“Quick, activate Susano’o.” Tobi’s eyes flashed, revealing a hint of a sinister look. This move was too troublesome.

“Sharingan: Susano’o!” Having the Eternal Mangeky? Sharingan, Sasuke finally activated Susano’o into its matured state, equipped with a bow and arrows as weapons. However, it was evident that this was not an offensive move; it was for defense. Six trillion exploding tags, mixed with Konan’s chakra-concealed paper, created an explosion. Each exploding tag had a power that ordinary tags couldn’t compare with, let alone six trillion exploding simultaneously. The snow-covered landscape was shattered by the shockwaves, forming countless canyons.

“You only have five minutes, don’t think you can hide it from me. Once it’s released in five minutes, you’ll be dead.” Konan said coldly, really like a battle angel in the middle of a fight.
