Naruto: Tobirama Reborn, Invincible in the Ninja World

[Mission: Defeat Uchiha Madara by any means necessary.]

[Reward: Rinnegan.]

As Uchiha Madara's demeanor shifted, a mechanical voice echoed in Tobirama's mind.

Out of habit, Tobirama glanced at the translucent screen from his previous battle with the Six Paths of Pain—the one he had ignored.

[Mission: Defeat the Six Paths of Pain (Completed)]

[Reward: Chakra capacity increased tenfold (Claimed)]

Tobirama had yet to exhaust his chakra reserves, so he hadn't noticed the change until now. After a moment of focused observation, he could sense the boundless ocean of chakra surging within him.

If his previous chakra reserves were akin to a swimming pool, now they had transformed into a vast lake. Coupled with the regenerative properties of his Edo Tensei body, any chakra he expended would instantly replenish.

At this point, Tobirama no longer fell short compared to his elder brother. With his arsenal of techniques, he might have even surpassed Hashirama!

"Hahaha! Did you just say you're going to beat me down?"

"In life, you used to cower behind Hashirama whenever you saw me. A pathetic member of the Senju clan dares spout such arrogance now?"

"Did defeating a few of these younger shinobi give you this newfound confidence?"

Madara's laughter boomed as if he had heard the most absurd joke, but his eyes, now filled with killing intent, locked onto Tobirama.

The hatred from Tobirama killing Izuna had never faded.

When Hashirama was alive, Madara refrained from taking action against Tobirama directly. But now that Hashirama had passed on to the Pure Land, it was time to settle this old grudge.

Without warning, Madara attacked!

As always, a fierce battle began with taijutsu, even for someone like Madara.

"To be honest, I've wanted to pin you to the ground and teach you a lesson since I was alive!"

Madara's figure blurred as he launched himself forward with blinding speed. A devastating roundhouse kick tore through the air, aiming directly at Tobirama's head.

"I could say the same to you!"

Tobirama's expression didn't waver. A slight smile played on his lips as he crossed his arms to block the kick.

Boom!

Crack... crack...

A thunderous impact rang out, accompanied by faint cracking sounds.

The force pushed Tobirama back half a step, the ground beneath his feet sinking deeply. The blue armor plates on his arms were shattered and barely held together.

Madara's lips curled into a smirk as he increased the pressure with his leg. The already fragile ground crumbled further, engulfing Tobirama in a cloud of dust.

But Tobirama didn't end up crushed beneath Madara's foot as expected.

Instead, Madara's sharp gaze caught the sight of a puddle of water where Tobirama had been.

"Your little inventions are one of the reasons I detest you so much..."

Madara sneered before spinning around and throwing a punch.

Boom!

The Tobirama that had appeared behind him with a kunai burst into water upon impact.

A water clone.

Even the Sharingan couldn't distinguish these tangible clones from the real thing.

As much as he despised Tobirama, Madara begrudgingly acknowledged his genius in creating ninjutsu.

The real Tobirama remained elusive, evading Madara's Sharingan-enhanced sight.

Drip... drip...

The remnants of the water clones pooled together on the ground, reforming into several identical Tobiramas.

"What an amusing little trick."

Madara's battle lust ignited as he watched the clones, each wielding a blade of water, charge toward him.

"Fire Release: Dragon Flame Song Technique!"

Madara inhaled deeply, exhaling several fiery dragons that roared toward the clones.

Hiss... hiss...

Steam filled the air as the fiery dragons evaporated the clones.

Madara dashed into the fray, his movements fluid and precise. A slight tilt of his body dodged a water blade, and a counterpunch shattered the clone into droplets.

"Hah! Interesting! Very interesting!"

Laughing maniacally, Madara drove an elbow into a leaping clone, knocking it away before incinerating it with a fireball.

The airborne steam condensed under Tobirama's control, reforming into new clones.

One became two, two became four, four became eight...

The number of water clones surged endlessly.

Water, in its infinite cycle, allowed Tobirama to wield his technique indefinitely, thanks to his mastery over its three states of matter.

From high above, the real Tobirama observed the spectacle with a faint smile.

"Is this the extent of your strength? Tobirama, you truly are worthless!"

Madara's fire jutsu vaporized the last clone as he glanced around with a mocking smirk.

Suddenly, a fine drizzle began to fall from the sky.

Drip... drip...

Raindrops pooled together, combining rapidly.

In mere moments, hundreds—no, thousands—of identical Tobiramas appeared before Madara, speaking in unison:

"Madara, this is just the beginning."

Madara's grin widened, his excitement palpable.

"To take Water Release to such extremes... I'll admit, that's impressive."

"But it only highlights how inferior you are. Your elder brother, Hashirama, is a mountain you'll never surpass!"

Madara placed a hand on his chest, realization flashing in his eyes.

"That young one, Orochimaru... he's dissected my secrets quite thoroughly."

"Tobirama, let me show you the difference between you and your brother!"

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

As Madara completed his hand seals, the ground trembled violently.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A verdant sea of trees erupted, vines surging forth to ensnare and crush the water clones, draining the moisture from their forms.

In an instant, the once-infinite water clones were obliterated by the boundless forest.

"This... is Hashirama's power! A power you'll never attain, Tobirama!"

Madara's voice echoed with maniacal laughter as he continued, "You, a mere failure, dare to call yourself Hashirama's brother? What a joke!"

"Then why don't you take his place?"

Tobirama's voice rang out unexpectedly from above.

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

Even larger and denser than Madara's, Tobirama's forest surged downward, overwhelming Madara as shock flashed across his face.
