Extra Chapter: On Every 50 powerstone

"Madara!"
A flicker of excitement crossed Hashirama's face before his expression grew complicated again.
"Were you also reanimated by the Impure World Reincarnation?"
"Absolutely not!" Tobirama shouted. "Brother, look closely! That guy isn't in a reanimated state!"
"Hmph, of course we're nothing like you!"
Izuna suddenly appeared behind Madara, lifting his chin as he looked down disdainfully at the Senju brothers.
"So that's how it is."
Seeing Izuna, Hashirama recalled their meeting after emerging from the Shinigami's stomach.
"Regardless, I'm glad we can meet again like this."
Hashirama grinned broadly.
"Enough chatter!"
Madara turned his gaze toward Nagato.
Bound by the Wood Dragon, Nagato calmly observed Madara.
"Are you the real Uchiha Madara?"
Substantial hatred burned in his eyes.
"Finally, I see you."
"Oh?"
Madara hoisted his massive fan onto his shoulder, smiling meaningfully.
"You have something to say to me?"
"Heh…" Nagato let out a cold laugh, his eyes locked onto Madara's face. "You already know, don't you?"
The tips of the spikes on his back suddenly ignited with red flames, and a powerful repulsive force erupted instantly, freeing him from the Wood Dragon's grasp.
Hovering high in the air, he ran a hand over his eyes and spat at Madara with venom:
"After all, everything I am is thanks to you!!!"
"What do you mean?"
Hashirama, standing to the side, stared at Nagato in bewilderment.
"These Rinnegan eyes of mine, and the fate I've endured until now," Nagato's icy voice echoed across the battlefield, "were all bestowed upon me by Uchiha Madara."
In an instant, all eyes turned to Madara.
"That's correct," Madara admitted without hesitation. "Those eyes originally belonged to me."
"Madara!!!" Hashirama roared. "What are you trying to do?!"
Madara ignored Hashirama completely, merely casting a dismissive glance at Nagato, with no intention of explaining himself.
"He only wanted to use me, so he entrusted these eyes to me," Nagato's gaze locked onto Kakashi in the crowd. "And Obito—the girl Obito loved, that tragedy was also orchestrated by him, all to mold Obito into the perfect executor of his plans."
"What…"
Kakashi's pupils trembled violently, his mind thrown into chaos.
"Hmph."
Madara let his wild hair brush past his face, unfazed.
"Indeed, I, Uchiha Madara, will never deny what I've done."
"I know what you originally intended," Nagato said to Madara. "But now, it seems you've abandoned that plan."
A stiff smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Still, it doesn't matter. Obito has already betrayed you, and I will carry out the plan you discarded."
He spread his arms, his body rising higher.
"Now… it's your turn to stop me."
"What exactly is this plan?!"
Hashirama, feeling lost, couldn't help but shout.
"The Moon's Eye Plan," Nagato explained, almost enthusiastically. "Using the power of the Ten-Tails to project overwhelming ocular power onto the moon, casting the ultimate genjutsu—Infinite Tsukuyomi."
He looked down at the tens of thousands of people staring up at him on the battlefield.
"Infinite Tsukuyomi will trap humanity in an eternal illusion, creating everlasting peace!"
"..."
For a moment, everyone was stunned into silence by Nagato's words.
That's not what you said before!
Weren't you advocating for peace through pain and fear?
"Peace through genjutsu?!"
"Impossible! That's just a fake illusion!"
"In that case, we'd all be under genjutsu control—how terrifying!"
"Everyone, we can't let him succeed!"
...
"Madara!!!"
Hashirama glared at Madara from afar, his face filled with disapproval.
"Yeah, I've already given up on it."
Madara remained indifferent.
"Nagato!"
A flock of white paper butterflies flew down from the sky, gathering together.
Konan, her white paper wings spread behind her, appeared before Nagato.
"Why are you here, Konan?" Nagato's voice was cold as he studied her expression. "Are you here to oppose me?"
"Why… did you never tell me?"
Konan's tone was eerily calm.
"Whether I told you or not, it makes no difference."
Nagato reached out with his left hand and pulled Konan into an embrace.
"Wait for me, Konan."
At the same time, a black rod silently pierced through her heart.
"We'll see each other again soon," Nagato whispered, his voice softer than ever. "You, me, and Yahiko—we'll be together forever, living in a peaceful illusion."
"Kuh…"
Blood spilled from Konan's lips, but she suddenly smiled, her gaze tender as she looked at Nagato.
"Sorry… for leaving you… alone…"
Her hand fell limply, and countless white paper sheets scattered from her wings.
Nagato caught a drifting paper flower from her hair with his right hand.
"Konan!"
Jiraiya's furious voice erupted from the crowd as his towering figure leaped into the air.
By now, the two Great Toad Sages stood on his shoulders, his facial features distorted—he had entered Sage Mode.
"Be careful, Jiraiya!"
"Don't act recklessly!"
Fukasaku and Shima urgently warned him.
"WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?!"
Jiraiya glared at Nagato, the Rasengan in his hand growing larger and larger.
"NAGATO!!!"
"And why are you so angry, Jiraiya-sensei?"
Nagato released the paper flower in his hand, and black Truth-Seeking Orbs transformed into spears, shooting toward Jiraiya.
"Konan—Konan followed you with everything she had!"
Jiraiya blocked the orbs with his massive Rasengan.
"I know."
Nagato glanced down at Konan's peaceful face, his expression gentle—but the next instant, it twisted into something monstrous.
"That's exactly why this world has no place left for her!"
Still holding Konan's body, he flashed in front of Jiraiya before the latter could react, seizing his throat with his right hand.
At the same time, two Truth-Seeking Orbs morphed into black rods, impaling the two toad sages.
"So… you were never… fighting seriously… before…"
Jiraiya's Rasengan dissipated as he watched the two small bodies of the sages vanish into nothingness.
At the same time, the Sage Mode transformations on his body began fading.
"Rather than letting a kind soul like Konan perish with this hopeless world, it was better for me to send her off myself."
Nagato tightened his grip on Jiraiya's throat, ascending higher to evade the rescue attempts from below.
"The world… perishing?"
Jiraiya's eyes widened.
"Too bad you won't live to see it, Jiraiya-sensei," Nagato murmured.
Just then, a uniquely shaped kunai appeared beside them.
A golden flash—and Minato materialized, his right hand clamping onto Nagato's wrist.
"Yama's Annihilation: Demon-Slaying Right Hand!"
Minato smirked as his right hand erupted with violet light.
"That was close," he said. "If you'd used that technique where you expel black matter from your palm, Jiraiya-sensei would've been done for."
