Chapter 332: One Sword Two Halves

Roar!!

Suddenly, the Gedo Mazo roared at Kushina.

"Kushina! Don't fight him, wait for Naito to come back."

Looking at Madara and the Demonic statute, Kurama advised Kushina not to fight them.

Upon hearing him, Kushina nodded, him then she immediately turned from Kurama's form to Kyuubi Chakra Mode then quickly retreated.

"It's useless."

Madara looked at Kushina running toward the Village, he bit his thumb then pressed his hand on the head of the Demonic Statue.

"Summoning Technique!"

Whoosh!

Suddenly, Kushina's movements stagnated, then her entire body trembled as Kurama's Chakra inside her body went out of control.

Madara could still summon the Kyuubi because of the forced contract he signed, he couldn't directly summon him because he's bonded to his Jinchuriki, however; the summoning technique interfered with Kurama's Chakra flow inside Kushina's body and stagnated her for a moment.

Suddenly, the demonic statute's hand moved and grabbed Kushina!

"Damn!"

Kurama roared inside Kushina, and she didn't have a choice but to reenter the full form.

Although, turning to the complete form helped her get rid of the Demonic's grip on her. But he still managed to catch on of the Kyuubi's tails and slammed him on the ground.

Bang!!

The Kyuubi then turned his head and bit the Demonic statute's hand that was firmly grasping his tail.

The Kyuubi was struggling hard to get rid of his grip. However, the other hand suddenly moved and nailed his neck to the ground.

Madara was watching this scene with a faint look as if he had already everything in his hands.

"Although the order of absorption must be respected, I'll just use the Gedo Mazo to temporarily seal the Kyuubi, it won't be a problem."

ROAR!!

Suddenly, the Gedo Mazo opened his mouth, and the Chakra Chains extended out and penetrated the Kyuubi's body.

Kushina screamed in pain, as the Kyuubi's Chakra was pulled out of her body.

"Damn it!"

Kushina panicked, but she wasn't gonna give up and immediately used the Adamantine Sealing Chains.

Whoosh!!

Suddenly the chain rushed out from her body, bonding the Kyuubi's Chakra, preventing the Gedo Mazo from swallowing it.

All of a sudden, the game of tug-of-war started.

"Not bad, Uzumaki Clan. She's standing her ground against the Gedo Mazo! but this is nothing but a futile struggle."

Madara, who was on the head of the Gedo Mazo, looked calmly below.

The Kyuubi's Chakra was slowly being pulled by the Gedo Mazo, although, Kushina was trying to fight back, her power against the Renningen's outer path was not enough, she could barely slow down the speed of the absorption.

The Kyuubi's head was already swallowed, then his shoulders and claws were slowly following.

Kushina's heart screamed in awe the moment she saw that. If this continues, the Kyuubi is gonna completely get sealed inside the Gedo Mazo!

Although Madara's oppression caused her high pressure, Konan wasn't gonna just watch Kushina get defeated.

"Paper Shuriken!"

It was useless to attack the Gedo Mazo directly, so she targeted Madara, who was on top of it. As long as she can take down Madara, Kushina will be saved.

However, Madara did only a faint glance at Konan's attack, before a sizeable blue skeleton's thorax appeared around him blocking Konan's Paper Shuriken, then the sword in his hand fell and directly hit her.

The moment she got hit, her body turned into pieces of paper in midair, then re-aggregated woundless.

Even though she didn't get injured, Konan was still surprised, she didn't expect Madara to pull out such a powerful technique in this situation.

"Kibaku!"

Konan stretched her hand, and hundreds of paper flew over toward Madara and danced around his Susanoo. Suddenly, they turned into explosion papers!

However, in the face of her attack, Madara didn't even have the thought of dodging, he even showed a hint of disdain in his eyes, and let those papers explode.

Boom!!

The explosion was intense, but it didn't even leave a scratch on Madara's Susanoo.

Seeing that none of her attacks could stop him, and how the Kyuubi's Chakra was slowly getting swallowed out of Kushina's body, Konan became anxious, she knew that once the Kyuubi gets captured, she as her Jinchuriki will die.

Although she has always envied Kushina because Naito loves her, she never wished for her death. Kushina is the most important person to Naito, for that she was gonna try her best to protect her.

However, she couldn't do anything for neither the Gedo Mazo nor Madara, she could only look at how powerless is Kushina getting the more the Kyuubi's Chakra is getting swallowed.

"This cannot be allowed to continue, Naito-Sensei… Where are you…"

Konan clenched her teeth, with Naito's figure appearing in her mind. At that moment, she couldn't think of anything but him, after all, only Naito can solve this crisis.

Kushina was struggling, she was using her Chains to pull the Kyuubi's Chakra back, but obviously, she was losing against the Gedo Mazo.

Looking at how half of the Kyuubi's body was already swallowed, she felt horrified, she didn't know when Naito will come back, but in any case, she wasn't gonna give up.

Boom!!

Suddenly, one of her chains got broken, then a second and third followed!

Boom! Boom!! Boom!!!

The chains were giving up on her, and she could no longer fight back.

Only a few were left, and once they all get broken, the Kyuubi gonna get sealed entirely inside the Gedo Mazo!

Kushina's heart was almost gonna sink in desperation, as she looked to the sky to watch it for the last time.

Suddenly, she saw starlight moving at high speed from a distance, this stream of light was coming from the Land of Rain borders and was cutting through the dark clouds of the entire country!

Civilians and ninjas alike were extremely shocked by this event.

He was moving at breakneck speed, the only thing left behind it is the split sky!

Finally, just when the last chain was gonna break, a sound full of anger and killing intent emitted from the sky.

"MAAA-DAAA-RAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

Accompanied with that anger and killing intent, Naito's figure appeared from a distance with his Golden Kusanagi sword in his hand, and he didn't hesitate to wave.

Whoosh!

An invisible wave suddenly crossed that whole distance and fell toward the Gedo Mazo!

"Useless…"

Madara faintly looked at it, the Chains of the outer path cannot be broken by regular attacks.

However, it didn't take long before the expression on his face changed.

That invisible wasn't targeting the Gedo Mazo but the Kyuubi's body!

Whoosh!!

Half of the Kyuubi's body was already swallowed by the Gedo Mazo. When Kushina's last chain breaks, the Demonic statue was gonna complete the absorption and seal the Kyuubi in. However, when Naito's attack fell, it split the Kyuubi's body into two halves from the waist!
