Naruto: Creating Immortal Techniques at Six, Shocking Uncle Snake

Chapter 218: Easily Resolved!

Looking at Uchiha Madara lying in the crater, Ishihara's lips curled up slightly. Since this guy wanted to play, then he might as well play along.

With that thought, Ishihara turned around, pretending to leave.

However, the moment he turned, he had already formed the hand seals for the Substitution Jutsu. At the same time, he also completed the hand seals for a Fire Release technique.

Just as expected, the moment Ishihara turned his back, the rock moved!

Uchiha Madara had just been about to transform back and give Ishihara a surprise, but at that instant, Ishihara suddenly turned around!

This made Uchiha Madara freeze for half a second.

And in that brief moment—

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Jutsu!"

A massive fireball erupted from Ishihara's mouth, shooting straight toward the crater.

Boom!

Smoke billowed in all directions, and soon after, fierce flames ignited within the pit.

In no time, Uchiha Madara rushed out.

"You bastard! I'll kill you!"

He roared furiously, swinging his Zanpakutō at Ishihara.

Flames were still burning on his body, yet he showed no intention of putting them out.

However, when the Zanpakutō struck Ishihara, Madara froze.

What was going on? Why had he hit so easily?

"Lord Uchiha Madara landed a hit! Excellent!"

"Amazing! That means this guy is as good as dead!"

"Hahaha! I knew Lord Uchiha Madara would win—"

But in the next second—

Poof!

Ishihara's figure vanished, replaced by a pile of scattered sand.

Only then did they realize—

Substitution Jutsu!

"No wonder it was so easy to land a hit! He's behind me!"

Gritting his teeth, Uchiha Madara muttered angrily before quickly turning around, slashing his Zanpakutō once again.

Clang!

He managed to block Ishihara's attack.

"I didn't expect your reaction to be this fast. Just a little slower, and it would've been over," Ishihara remarked with a hint of admiration. He then lifted his leg, preparing to strike again.

Madara's pupils shrank, and he immediately leaped backward to evade, extending his left hand as he did so.

"Cero!"

The moment Madara jumped back, Ishihara already knew what he was planning.

He simply lacked long-range attacks and wanted to use Cero to force some distance.

But how could Ishihara let him have his way?

At the same time Madara leaped back, Ishihara swung his Zanpakutō, sending out a Crescent Slash!

The Cero was instantly dispersed, and the Crescent Slash continued flying toward Madara.

Seeing this, Madara reached out again, intending to crush the attack.

However, this time, Ishihara had infused it with a large amount of spiritual energy.

Slash!

In an instant, Madara's left hand was severed.

Ishihara immediately used Shunpo, appearing right in front of him.

A single slash aimed straight for Madara's head!

Madara, just snapping out of his shock, hurriedly raised his Zanpakutō to block.

However—

Ishihara was wielding his blade single-handedly.

With his free left hand, he formed a Rasengan.

That's right—Rasengan.

Unlike Naruto's, Ishihara's Rasengan was purely composed of spiritual energy, making it extremely lethal to spirits.

Madara's pupils shrank in horror. Just as he opened his mouth to say something—

Boom!

Before he could even scream, the Rasengan blasted him away.

With that, Ishihara deactivated his Shinigami state and turned toward the remaining spirits.

They were all still in shock, unable to react.

At that moment, Ishihara spoke calmly,

"Kill them all. I'm heading back."

With that, he prepared to leave.

He had come because he received Haku's distress signal. Now that the issue was resolved, it was time to go.

Haku nodded.

"Got it, Boss Ishihara!"

"Hmm."

With that, Ishihara vanished in a flash.

Haku would take care of the rest. If necessary, he would send another signal.

As for now—

It was time to track down that escapee.

He was an excellent test subject, though he talked too much, always calling himself the "Demon King" or something.

Still, he was quite a valuable test subject.

Meanwhile, deep in the desert, Sasori and Deidara arrived.

"Sasori, do you think we can still capture the One-Tail smoothly this time? I heard there are members of the Immortal Organization over there."

"Who knows? If it's that guy Haku, I'd love to add him to my collection."

Sasori chuckled.

He had fought Haku twice before, and both times had been troublesome.

Now, with his Sage Mode, he wondered if the battle would be any easier.

Elsewhere, at Konoha Hospital…

"Kakashi-sensei, you're in the hospital too?"

"Yeah. That ghost was incredibly strong. If someone hadn't shown up later, we might have all died."
