With one blow that sent Uchiha Madara flying, Ryun flashed forward and charged toward him again.
But before he could get close, a large group of White Zetsu emerged from underground and blocked his path. These things felt endless.
After kicking one White Zetsu to pieces, the Chidori Sharp Spear formed from lightning reappeared in Ryun's hand. A sweeping strike cut most of the White Zetsu in half at the waist.
However, this delay allowed Madara to catch his breath, and he even seized the chance to slash out with a Susanoo sword energy at him.
Seeing the sword energy coming, Ryun was not flustered at all. As lightning flashed, his figure suddenly disappeared. The Susanoo sword energy did not even touch the hem of his clothes.
"Tch..."
Faced with this Body Flicker Technique that was almost as fast as the Flying Thunder God Technique, Madara had no good way to counter it for the moment.
After the failed attack, the three tomoe in Madara's eyes kept moving as he searched for Ryun's figure. Suddenly, the Susanoo threw a punch. A large and a small fist collided violently together.
Ryun's speed was indeed fast, but it still could not escape his eyes.
The power of the Susanoo body clashed with human physical strength. The collision instantly produced two invisible energy shields. For a moment, it seemed evenly matched, as both the large and small fists continuously exerted force.
"Ah!!!"
With Ryun's furious roar, the senjutsu chakra attached to his fist erupted violently. The strange strength technique was instantly used by him to its extreme.
As he went all out, a series of 'crack crack' sounds of bones shattering timely reached his ears.
"What!!!"
Watching the Susanoo arm continuously shatter, Madara's eyes couldn't help but show shock.
This Uchiha junior's physical body was too powerful. In Madara's understanding, probably only Hashirama Senju could surpass him in pure physical strength.
'This strange bestial transformation... it should be amplifying physical power...' Looking at the dense black scales on Ryun's arm, this thought suddenly popped into Madara's mind.
But before he could think more, his Susanoo was violently blasted away by Ryun again.
"Hmph..."
The intense shock force transmitted through the Susanoo to Madara's body. Madara grunted uncontrollably, then clenched his teeth and forced himself to endure it.
Seeing Ryun's fierce offensive, charging again immediately after one attack, Madara had no choice but to get serious now.
"Wood Release. Birth of a World of Trees!"
Madara suddenly withdrew the Susanoo shell and clasped his hands together. The vast chakra within his body was channeled into the ground all at once.
A sapling in front of him instantly broke through the soil, then rapidly grew into a towering giant tree at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Ryun was forced to stop by the rampaging trees. Lightning appeared in his hands as the Chidori Sharp Spear continuously slashed left and right, cutting all branches that attempted to get close.
However, for every one he cut, ten more sprouted. For a time, he was inevitably forced to retreat repeatedly.
"Someone is fighting. It should be Uchiha Ryun, in that direction..."
The appearance of the Birth of a World of Trees caused the nearby earth to tremble. The elite intelligence team sent by Sarutobi Hiruzen thus learned their position.
"Fire Release. Great Fire Annihilation!"
Facing the increasingly fierce sea of trees, Ryun, after cutting down a large wave of tree trunks, had no choice but to use a large-scale fire release jutsu.
However, the expected phenomenon of 'fire overcoming wood' did not appear... The endless trees advanced wave after wave, even suppressing the great fire and extinguishing it outright for a time...
"Damn it..." Ryun gritted his teeth and cursed quietly.
What truly extinguished the great fire wasn't the numerical advantage of the trees, but the rare characteristic of Wood Release that allowed it to absorb chakra.
The Wood Release used by Hashirama Senju feared neither fire nor water release jutsu. Uchiha Madara, who had transplanted Hashirama's cells, could also achieve this.
Fire release could not extinguish the sea of trees. As for water release, Ryun knew without thinking that it would be ineffective against the sea of trees, and might even cause it to grow more violently. So the methods Ryun could employ now were actually not many...
"Chidori Sharp Spear!"
Lightning was condensed by him into the form of a ten meter long spear. As he continuously swung the lightning spear in his hand, all the trees approaching him from his surroundings were completely cut apart.
Although he could not immediately break this unreasonable, savage ninjutsu, the abundant senjutsu chakra within his body was enough to support him using lightning release jutsu to directly oppose Wood Release.
"Wood Release. Wood Dragon Technique!"
Following Madara's voice, two wooden dragons charged out from the sea of trees and simultaneously pounced fiercely towards Ryun.
Ryun jumped to temporarily avoid the twin dragons' pounce. After cutting through the trees near him, he fiercely slashed his Chidori Sharp Spear onto the body of one wooden dragon.
The expected scene of cutting the dragon's body in two did not immediately appear. The sharp lightning spear only cut through most of the thick wooden dragon's body. In the end, it still relied on its body's tenacious toughness to block Ryun's attack.
"!!!"
Seeing this, Ryun's eyes were full of surprise. His Chidori Sharp Spear was briefly stuck in the wooden dragon's body.
The next moment, a wooden dragon suddenly burst forth from under Ryun's feet and bit down on his entire body with its mouth!
Under Madara's control, the wooden dragon clenched its jaws with all its might, wanting to bite the youth in its mouth to death. But around Ryun, there seemed to be a circle of rigid material perfectly protecting his entire person.
"What. This is impossible!!!"
Madara couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
He saw a white skeleton frame emitting black flames. That was clearly the initial stage Susanoo.
Calculating based on seven days, Ryun's one Mangekyō Sharingan eye had indeed just awakened recently. But how could someone who just awakened the Mangekyō immediately use Susanoo.
And most crucially, Ryun only opened one eye. Can you even activate Susanoo with just one Mangekyō Sharingan eye?
Madara couldn't figure out how he 'instantly activated' Susanoo or activated it with one eye, while Ryun couldn't figure out how Madara used a three tomoe Sharingan to activate Susanoo, or even activate it without eyes...
Actually, the reason Ryun could activate Susanoo was also due to his Senju bloodline. The 'Body of All Creation' accelerated all processes of ocular jutsu awakening.
As soon as Ryun's eye awakened, the ocular jutsu of his right eye was quickly mastered by him. After a major battle, this third ocular jutsu, Susanoo, also awakened as time passed.
The wooden dragon's powerful bite force covered the Susanoo skeleton with cracks.
However, with the continuous output of ocular power from Ryun's right eye, the shattered Susanoo skeleton suddenly increased in size and extended. A complete body Susanoo quickly forced open the wooden dragon's mouth and landed directly on the sea of trees.
