As a transmigrator, Kazekaze naturally had a certain level of understanding of Sage Mode. However, witnessing Sage Mode from an outsider's perspective and experiencing it firsthand are completely different things. Especially now, Kazekaze was no longer a novice.
Eight Gates. Super Strength. These top-tier ninjutsu of the ninja world, he had already mastered them all.
'Although strictly speaking, Sage Mode can't be considered nin-taijutsu. But in this mode, whether it's sensory ability, strength, or physical defense, I've all seen a significant improvement. Now, without relying on Super Strength and the power of the Eight Gates, I've blocked Susanoo's attack, which is a great proof. I'm really strong now!'
Kazekaze thought to himself, truly feeling the power continuously surging from within his body. Even when facing a powerhouse like Uchiha Madara, he wasn't without a fighting chance.
"Flying Thunder God technique." Taking the opportunity of contact with Susanoo, Kazekaze directly imprinted his Flying Thunder God technique on it, just in case.
Everyone who witnessed this scene, whether human or toad, was stunned by Kazekaze's performance.
"Kazekaze actually blocked Uchiha Madara's attack?!" Fukasaku blinked, feeling a complex mix of emotions. Just moments ago, when he charged at Uchiha Madara, not only did his attack fail to have any effect, but he was also sent flying by the recoil. It left him deeply shocked by Uchiha Madara's power. Yet in the blink of an eye, Kazekaze blocked Uchiha Madara's slash. Doesn't this mean that Kazekaze, this seven-year-old kid, far surpassed him in strength?
'My decades of training were surpassed by Kazekaze in mere minutes.' Fukasaku suddenly felt his mindset collapse! All the sweat he had shed. Diligence. Effort. Couldn't compare to Kazekaze's momentary skill. If Kazekaze had achieved his current accomplishments through his own sweat and over time, Fukasaku wouldn't feel so bad. But... Kazekaze didn't even take half an hour. Who could accept such a thing? Fukasaku certainly couldn't.
"Kazekaze..." The three brothers of Gamabunta stood dumbfounded, feeling the gap in strength when facing Uchiha Madara's taijutsu. Their size advantage was utterly useless in front of Uchiha Madara. Now, with Uchiha Madara using Susanoo, they dared not approach. But who knew, this power that made them fearful, was easily caught by Kazekaze. Too terrifying. Is this guy really just a human kid?
Of course, among those present, none were more shocked than Hiruzen and the others. As ninjas of Konoha, they hadn't had the chance to witness it, but they were well aware of Uchiha Madara's legendary reputation. He wasn't just the strongest of the Uchiha clan. He was a powerful ninja even the First Hokage couldn't underestimate. And yet... This legendary figure was evenly matched with Kazekaze?
"Kazekaze..." Hiruzen gritted his teeth, struggling to get up from the ground. He decided to join Kazekaze in fighting Uchiha Madara. However, before Hiruzen could form seals again, Kazekaze on the other side began to unleash the muscle strength of his two arms. And that wasn't all. He also gathered the Sage Chakra within his body into his hands.
Although Kazekaze's use of Sage Mode was identical to Naruto's, the techniques he knew now exceeded Naruto's. Besides forming Rasengan. He also knew Super Strength!
"Hah!" Kazekaze suddenly shouted, lifting the Chakra blade he had caught with both hands. Even Uchiha Madara, wrapped in Susanoo, couldn't escape Kazekaze's brute force.
'This kid.' Uchiha Madara's eyes widened as he saw his feet leave the ground, his entire body drawing a perfect arc in the air. The massive Susanoo in Kazekaze's hands was like a giant war hammer. Then... Kazekaze swung the Chakra blade, smashing Uchiha Madara into a nearby statue.
Boom! With a series of loud noises, the statues around the Toad Oil Waterfall toppled like dominoes. However, Kazekaze's attack didn't end there. He knew very well how strong Uchiha Madara was. Thinking he could defeat him with just this level of Super Strength was pure fantasy.
So Kazekaze pushed off with his feet, leaping high into the air, catching up to Uchiha Madara's position, raising his right leg above his head. Then. Kazekaze and his right leg descended together, slashing down at Susanoo.
"Heavenly Pain Kick!" Super Strength erupted once more, targeting Uchiha Madara. Moreover, this time Kazekaze's Heavenly Pain Kick was a blow in Sage Mode. Its power was exponentially greater than Tsunade's Heavenly Pain Kick. With one strike, it hit the Susanoo lying on the ground. The Chakra bones protecting Uchiha Madara showed visible cracks. In an instant, they spread across the entire Susanoo. The next second. The bones shattered, and the Chakra, like deep blue flames, began to dissipate.
Uchiha Madara couldn't have dreamed. Hashirama's grandson. A seven-year-old grandson. Could possess such terrifying power! With just the power of one kick, he destroyed his Susanoo! It's important to know, this was the power unleashed to the fullest by the Mangekyo. A dojutsu that materializes Chakra! Even Hashirama's Wood Human couldn't easily destroy it. Is Kazekaze really only seven years old? Could it be Hashirama disguised with a transformation technique?
And just as countless emotions and thoughts surged within Uchiha Madara, Kazekaze's Heavenly Pain Kick continued downward, stomping on Madara's abdomen. A vast power, as if descending from the heavens, pressed down on Uchiha Madara.
Pfft! Uchiha's body bent slightly, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his back hitting the ground, causing a shockwave. In an instant, the ground beneath him shattered. This was the power of Kazekaze's current Super Strength! Far surpassing his sister Tsunade! Even Uchiha Madara was dumbfounded, completely stunned.
Moreover... The most terrifying thing was, the Super Strength attack Uchiha Madara suffered now. Was thanks to Susanoo, which absorbed part of the impact! Otherwise, the damage he would have taken would be even more exaggerated!
'Is Kazekaze really not Hashirama disguised with a transformation technique? How could a seven-year-old kid have such terrifying power?' For a moment, the situation of this assassination far exceeded Uchiha Madara's expectations. His understanding nearly collapsed at this moment! This wasn't a seven-year-old kid. This was a monster! A super monster inheriting the bloodlines of Hashirama and Mito! Unbelievable!
