Chapter 188 The gradually escalating confrontation

In the current ninja world, there are not many people who pose a threat to Aoba, except for the Otsutsuki clan and the Kara organization that cannot hide. In the story of Shippuden, the one he is most interested in is Uchiha Madara.

Senju Hashirama has to go to the back. The main reason is that Uchiha Madara is more in line with the traditional ninja template. The kind of ninja who has all-round and unstoppable ninja body illusions.

And Hashirama conquers the world with his Wood Release. Although it is strong, it always gives people a feeling of being a bit one-dimensional.

He had guessed before that Black Zetsu's trump card should be Uchiha Madara. After all, only a few people knew the place where Madara died. Others simply could not summon the spirit of the dead Uchiha Madara.

While Aoba was observing Uchiha Madara, the other party was also observing him.

A young ninja. He has a pair of Sharingan, but he is not from the Uchiha clan. His chakra is very strong. The Shadow Clone and Flying Thunder God did not seem to consume any chakra.

All signs indicate that this young ninja is quite capable and has a lot of hidden cards. At least enough to make Madara take notice.

Aoba made a gesture with his right hand behind his back, asking the others to retreat. When fighting against an opponent of Madara's level, the number of people was basically meaningless.

The conventional ninjutsu they performed with every move required dozens of ordinary ninjas to resist. Once the firepower was fully opened, the people around them could not even withstand the aftermath.

"It's a relief that the ninja world can have someone like you. You can finally bring me some fun. Boy, are you ready to dance?"

Madara didn't even talk back to Aoba. Perhaps it was because he had been dead for too long and was too bored. At this moment, as a reincarnated body, he still couldn't wait to have a big fight.

Qingye was alert and activated the Sage Mode.

The two of them moved forward almost at the same time, their pace gradually increasing from slow to fast. In the last 100 meters, the speed of both parties almost reached the limit at the same time.

The next second, there was a dull crash.

The two of them tacitly agreed not to use ninjutsu. Aoba didn't even use the Kusanagi sword, but just used pure physical skills.

Aoba's taijutsu is very strong. In his early years, as a civilian ninja, he didn't have many ninjutsu inheritances, so he could only practice taijutsu and swordsmanship desperately.

As for Madara's taijutsu, it's needless to say. He is a tough guy from the Warring States period. He has fought many times more battles in his life than Aoba. The taijutsu he developed on the battlefield is characterized by precision, lethality, and ruthlessness.

"It's so fast, I can't see clearly." The Konoha ninja who was watching the fight from afar was also shocked by the fight between the two.

The simple physical movements were already so difficult that even the perception class couldn't see clearly.

Uchiha Madara's Taijutsu is somewhat different from the Uchiha fluid technique that Aoba knows. His is the original version, which has been adjusted according to his own conditions.

The later Uchiha fluid techniques were gorgeous and precise. Uchiha Madara's were more rough and violent. But this does not mean that the skills were poor. In fact, the fighting techniques used by the Uchiha were not even qualified for most people to learn. They were not physically qualified.

With a bang, their hands and feet collided again. Aoba bent over and rushed into Uchiha Madara's arms. His left hand Phoenix Eye Fist hit Madara's lower abdomen.

Madara's body turned sideways and twisted, avoiding Aoba's left hand attack. His body flipped in the air, and his left leg hit Aoba's head from top to bottom.

Aoba dodged by rolling sideways, supported himself with one hand, and followed up with a Konoha Whirlwind, predicting where Madara's mid-air kick would land.

With a single impact, the huge whirlwind was successful, and Madara's body lost balance in the air and continued to spin.

Aoba rushed forward and pursued him. However, Madara stretched out one hand while spinning. He actually used a soft fist technique. It penetrated the defense of Aoba's hands and hit his chest.

His body was off balance, so his strength was not great, but he still managed to stop Qingye from pursuing him.

Aoba retreated and Madara fell to the ground. This round of fist and kick exchange ended in a draw.

"Great!" Ban Gao shouted, forming seals with his hands. A long sword appeared from his spirit.

He had obviously seen Qingye's previous sword-wielding posture, so he used his weapons directly in the second round.

Aoba drew out the Kusanagi sword without hesitation. No one knew where the sword in Madara's hand came from. But a weapon that could be marked with a spiritual mark by him could not be an ordinary weapon.

The swordplay was more intense and more dangerous. Qingye had been practicing swordsmanship for many years. His title was Wind Chaser. It could be said that swordsmanship was the pinnacle of his conventional skills.

Madara had sensed this when they had just fought. Aoba did not use the ninjutsu such as the air-cutting flash.

Both sides still used pure swordsmanship to fight.

With the two men's tireless high-speed movement, the entire battlefield was filled with the sound of their swords colliding.

It was a pure battle of skills. Madara was just having fun, while Aoba was verifying what he had learned over the years.

Only when facing an opponent like Uchiha Madara, he could unscrupulously display all his abilities. An extremely powerful, impure world body, immortal, and tireless opponent made Qingye even more excited.

"Cut the Sky and Flash." After a few rounds, Qingye took the initiative to release the Chop the Sky and Flash, escalating the duel.

Madara understood what he meant and actually used the same move, the Air Slash. A few minutes ago, he had seen Aoba use this move from a distance and imitated it.

For a top chakra manipulation master, this level of ninjutsu is basically easy to use. This is why Aoba repeatedly emphasized the issue of chakra manipulation. Why did he accept Haruno Sakura as his disciple? Because she is the best chakra manipulator among the twelve little strong men.

The emergence of ninjutsu means that this fight is no longer a simple physical skills showdown.

"Fire Style, Great Fireball Technique." Madara formed a seal with one hand and threw a great fireball at Aoba.

Qingye did not dodge, and a tornado surrounded him and directly hit the fireball. The tornado swept the flames of the fireball. Qingye passed through the fireball.

The Kusanagi sword in his hand suddenly extended and pierced Madara's throat.

Madara did not respond but moved closer, blocking the Kusanagi sword with the sword in his hand, and slashed along the blade of the Kusanagi sword, cutting straight into Aoba's wrist that was holding the sword.

Aoba raised the Kusanagi sword in his hand and blocked Madara's long sword. The two men's right hands collided with each other, and their left hands also clashed.

At the same time, Madara's eyes also entered the three-magatama mode.

The two looked at each other and started their illusion competition almost at the same time.

In the original plot, there is no specific description of Madara's Mangekyō eye technique. However, judging from the performance, it should be able to increase the power of his own ninjutsu. Madara himself also said that he is a straight shooter. That is, the physical side. Therefore, the above speculation should be correct.

But this doesn't mean that Madara's illusion is weak. When he fought Hashirama, he basically didn't use any illusion. It probably didn't make much sense. But even so, he was still able to control the Nine-Tails like a pet dog.

In the plot, when fighting against the ninja coalition, he used illusions several times, and he killed those regular ninjas in seconds with just a glance.
