Chapter 166: The God of Death enters the Frey
The battlefield trembled under the clash of titans.
The Gokage, the strongest leaders of the Shinobi world, fought tooth and nail against the impossible might of Madara Uchiha, Obito, and the Seven Tailed Beasts. It was a battle that shook the heavens, where legends were forged in the flames of war.
But for now, Harry simply watched.
They had asked him to stand back.
They had wanted to prove themselves.
And, against all odds, they were succeeding—at first.
Tsunade fought purely with taijutsu, her monstrous strength forcing even Madara to acknowledge her as a genuine threat. Each punch she landed shattered the ground, sending shockwaves that forced the enemy to reposition. She wasn't just a healer—she was a warrior.
Gaara unleashed sand jutsu on a massive scale, weaving intricate seals in the air to manipulate his gold and desert sand. His abilities allowed him to both attack and defend, creating massive walls that shielded the Kage from Madara's relentless onslaught.
A, the Raikage, moved like lightning itself. Every step he took left afterimages, his Raiton-coated body making him nearly untouchable. His strikes were fast, devastating, and almost impossible to predict.
Mei Terumi unleashed the fury of her Kekkei Genkai, boiling mist and acidic lava raining down upon their foes. She wasn't just a distraction—her techniques forced Madara and Obito to actually dodge, a rare feat in itself.
Onoki, the old warhorse, brought Jinton and Doton to their peak. His Particle Style carved through entire landscapes, erasing anything caught in its light. His masterful use of Earth Style created unbreakable barriers, buying precious seconds in a battle where time meant everything.
For a moment, it seemed as if they could hold their own.
But then, Madara fully awakened his Rinnegan.
His Edo Tensei form surged with newfound power as the ripple-patterned eyes flickered to life.
In an instant, the tide turned.
A Full-Body Susanoo enveloped Madara, a towering colossus of ethereal armor standing against the heavens. The sheer weight of its presence crushed the morale of the shinobi watching from afar.
The Tailed Beasts—the overwhelming titans of destruction—were now cloaked in Susanoo parts. Blue and purple chakra armored their forms, granting them an almost divine invulnerability.
Obito, meanwhile, unleashed fire ninjutsu on an apocalyptic scale. His flames didn't burn like normal fire—they devoured everything, turning the battlefield into a scorched wasteland.
And when Madara finally unleashed Wood Style, it was over.
The legendary jutsu constricted the battlefield itself, roots and branches exploding from the earth to entrap and strangle the Kage. It was the final, undeniable proof that the Gokage—despite all their might—could not win this fight.
As the Gokage braced themselves for the final blow, a new force entered the battlefield.
Or rather, he was already there—watching, waiting.
Harry Potter moved.
One moment, he was standing still.
The next, Naruto was soaring through the sky, launched like a projectile straight at Obito.
"Go play," Harry muttered, grinning.
Obito barely had time to react before Naruto's Rasenshuriken detonated, splitting the battlefield into chaos.
And then, Harry entered Six Paths Sage Mode.
A dark, almost abyssal, black Truth-Seeking Staff materialized in his grip. His eyes—glowing with celestial power—fixed upon Madara's Susanoo.
Madara's blade came crashing down like a divine execution. The very sky seemed to tremble.
But it never landed.
Harry intercepted the strike with a single motion.
The Truth-Seeking Staff clashed against the ethereal sword, stopping it dead in its tracks. The sheer force of impact shattered the ground beneath them.
Madara's gaze narrowed.
But Harry wasn't finished.
Raising his left hand, he summoned something new.
A Susanoo, yes—but not just any Susanoo.
This was a Susanoo bearing the legendary Yata Mirror.
Through experimentation, understanding, and sheer brilliance, Harry had reverse-engineered Itachi's legendary shield. A shield that reflected all attacks—even the combined power of the Tailed Beasts' Bijūdama.
And just as the Seven Tailed Beasts unleashed their massive Bijūdama, their devastating energy spheres seeking to erase everything—
The Yata Mirror stood before them.
The energy struck—
And the attack was nullified.
For the first time in the war, Madara Uchiha frowned.
For the first time in the war, Obito stepped back.
Because standing against them was not a shinobi.
Not a warrior.
Not just a legend.
But the End itself.
Harry Potter, the True God of Death, had entered the battle.
