Chapter 243 - Chapter 243: Chibaku Tensei

He had originally thought he could restrain Jiraiya for a few seconds—just long enough to create an opening for an attack.

To his shock, Jiraiya shook off the effect in less than a second, recovering almost instantly.

The Thunder Titan blocked the attack from the Complete Body Susanoo but was forced back several steps. The chakra in his arms wavered slightly from the impact.

The destructive power of a Complete Body Susanoo was immense. It could cleave mountains and shatter meteors with ease. If the five elemental titans fought it one-on-one, they would stand no chance. It wouldn't take long for them to be completely annihilated.

Unlike the Guardian titan, the elemental titans were each formed from a single chakra nature, whereas the Guardian titan was forged from all five chakra natures combined with Senjutsu. In terms of overall capability, the Guardian Titan was actually superior to a Complete Body Susanoo.

...

Meanwhile, the Wood Clone that had been blown away earlier got back on its feet and lunged at Jiraiya once more.

"Tch. Like a swarm of flies."

With a single motion, Jiraiya commanded both the Flame Titan and Thunder Titan to attack. One spewed roaring flames, the other unleashed crackling lightning. When the two forces converged, they formed a powerful Lightning Flame that engulfed all the Wood Clones, reducing them to ashes.

"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique!"

Madara, unfazed by his failed attack, quickly formed hand seals. A colossal wooden dragon emerged, coiling through the air as it lunged toward the Guardian Titan.

"The signature jutsu of Lord Hashirama... Why can Madara use it?"

"This is impossible! No one has ever heard of Madara possessing Wood Release! How can he wield it now?"

The observing shinobi gasped in disbelief as the wooden dragon spiraled toward the Guardian Titan.

Jiraiya clenched his right fist. The Guardian Titan mirrored his movement, throwing a powerful punch that struck the dragon's head, causing cracks to spread across its surface.

However, the dragon lashed its tail, hooking around the Guardian Titan's leg and tightening its grip. It exerted tremendous force, attempting to topple its massive opponent.

At the same time, the wooden dragon began absorbing the Guardian Titan's chakra.

But the Wind Titan had already anticipated this. A dense mass of iron sand had been prepared and was now hurled toward the wooden dragon.

"Fire Release: Majestic Destroyer Flame!"

Madara countered swiftly, exhaling a massive fireball that crashed into the iron sand, melting it into liquid metal.

"Fire Release: Dragon Flame Release Song Technique!"

He followed up with four fiery dragons, attacking the Guardian Titan from multiple directions.

The Water Titan, still clutching its treasured orb, flung it into the sky. A tremendous surge of water erupted from the heavens, forming a torrential downpour that extinguished the incoming fire dragons.

At the same time, the Earth Titan swung its massive hammer, smashing it into the wooden dragon's head. The impact shattered the dragon's skull, splintering it into fragments.

...

"Wood Release: Nativity of a World of Trees!"

Madara clasped his hands together, and the ground began to shake violently. Trees erupted from the earth, growing at an alarming rate until they formed an enormous forest.

Jiraiya's Guardian Titan and the five elemental titans were quickly ensnared within the thick foliage.

Vines and branches twisted and lunged toward them, attempting to restrain their movements. The tendrils were harder than kunai and shuriken, while the leaves were razor-sharp.

In mere moments, the Guardian Titan and the five elemental titans were completely entangled. Worse still, their chakra began to drain away—the hidden property of many Wood Release techniques.

"Five Elements Divine Wheel—Manifest!"

Jiraiya pressed his hands together, and the five elemental titans flickered and dissolved into pure chakra. Their combined essence condensed into a radiant, five-colored wheel of light, spinning rapidly as it sliced through the entangling vines. The wheel then settled behind the Guardian Titan, merging its power with his.

At that moment, the Guardian Titan no longer appeared as a mere construct—it radiated divine majesty. The halo behind its head spun, bathing its form in a golden brilliance.

"Fire Release: Flames of Annihilation!"

Jiraiya formed seals, and the Guardian Titan unleashed an overwhelming inferno from its mouth. Simultaneously, the divine wheel behind its head blazed red, intensifying the flames.

Though the trees were unnaturally resilient, they stood no chance against such scorching heat. In seconds, the entire forest was engulfed in a raging firestorm, reduced to cinders.

...

"Wood Release: Flower Tree World!"

Madara wasn't finished. Once again, the ground cracked open, and massive flowering trees sprouted from below. Enormous blossoms bloomed, releasing clouds of fragrant pollen into the air.

This wasn't just any pollen—it was a potent neurotoxin that would sap the strength of anyone who inhaled it, rendering them defenseless.

But Jiraiya was unfazed.

"Poison won't work on me."

Thanks to his mastery of the Universal Poison Seal, further enhanced by the system, Jiraiya was immune to all toxins.

The Guardian Titan's divine wheel spun once more, this time shifting into its wind aspect. A fierce gust roared forth as the Guardian Titan exhaled, sending razor-sharp wind blades surging forward.

The violent gusts swept through the battlefield, shredding the flowering trees to pieces before they could take full effect.

...

Madara and his Susanoo moved in unison, forming hand seals. The sky darkened ominously.

Two massive meteors, each over a hundred meters in diameter, came hurtling down from above, their sheer size blotting out the heavens.

"Judgment Blade!"

Jiraiya had been anticipating this move.

Forming seals alongside the Guardian Titan, he watched as a colossal sword—over a hundred meters in length—materialized in the Titan's hand. Five elemental chakra natures swirled around its edge.

With a single downward swing, the sword released a devastating slash skyward.

A blinding arc of energy cleaved through the heavens.

A deafening explosion followed as both meteors were instantly reduced to rubble, their fragments scattering across the battlefield.

"This... This is beyond anything I've ever seen."

"This isn't just a battle between shinobi... This is a clash between gods."

"To witness such a spectacle... I can die without regrets."

The onlooking ninja erupted in awe and exhilaration. Even from a distance, the sheer scale of the battle sent shivers down their spines.

Madara narrowed his eyes as he watched Jiraiya effortlessly annihilate his celestial assault. A rare look of astonishment crossed his face.

Jiraiya's power far exceeded his expectations.

...

"Chibaku Tensei!"

Madara roared, expending a vast amount of chakra as he conjured multiple black spheres. With a flick of his wrist, the orbs scattered, positioning themselves around Jiraiya and the Guardian Titan.

The spheres activated instantly, exerting a gravitational pull that tore the earth apart. Massive chunks of rock and debris were drawn upward, rapidly forming a series of enormous satellites designed to entomb Jiraiya and his construct.

"Five Elements Grand Impact!"

Jiraiya swiftly formed seals. The divine wheel behind the Guardian Titan whirled at an incredible speed. From its chest, an intense, blinding light erupted, signaling the unleashing of an earth-shaking force.
