Smoke curled across the grasslands. Once a clean riverbank, was now ridden with holes and cracks. Dozens of tents had been reduced to debris.
Uzumaki Elder: "This isn't war. It's a stage where Uchiha wants to show us their supremacy."
Butsuma: "Senju and Uzumaki will not fall so easily"
Uzumaki Elder: "Then it's time we show him what we've always been."
Soon they started giving commands to regroup and carry the injured back to safe place where they can be treated.
Uchiha Sky Ship
Tajima: "Leo you and elders stay here, Beast unit and Extremis unit follow me."
Uchiha Tajima jumped down from the sky ship, in mid-air. He made hand seals "Summoning Jutsu: TorukMakto". Other ninjas who had also signed the summoning scroll followed suit. Then a roar split the clouds.
A sky-dominating beast with crimson wings came forth. It spiraled downward from the ship like a falling star given wings. On top of it stood Tajima Uchiha.
The sky was full of roars Uchiha beast units and Extremis unit was following behind Tajima, when the Senju and Uzumaki ninjas saw this, they were all stunned. So many beast flying in the sky. Many questions filled their minds.
Can they win?
Are they fighting Gods?
Butsuma: "Uchiha Tajima!! Come! Fight me!"
Tajima also ignored other ninjas and rushed towards Butsuma. He was waiting for this since many days to go all out.
Butsuma: "Senju and Uzumaki ninjas, fall back!"
Tajima: "Uchiha ninjas, watch from above"
Butsuma: Struck first, "Earth Release : Stone Bullet Barrage!"
Earth spikes launched forward, each compressed and spinning. Tajima didn't dodge. He charged through them, skin glowing red as the spikes drilled holes but healing instantly.
Tajima: "You'll need more than rocks to stop me, Butsuma."
He slammed a chakra infused fist toward Butsuma's jaw. But Butsuma ducked, pivoted, and countered.
Butsuma: "Taijutsu: Senju Earth Pulse Fist!"
His punch struck Tajima in the ribs, the impact made ground beneath them crack. Tajima grunted, but did not fall. His broken rib snapped back into place, body readjusting with a hiss of vapor.
Tajima: "That felt like a mosquito bite."
Tajima's body temperature rose. His eyes narrowed. Every thought, reflex, and breath moved at lightning speed. He stepped forward. In a blink, he appeared behind Butsuma, throwing a punch that was lethal, Butsuma barely managed to doge it and felt the hot temperature. If he gets hit he is done for. He jumped back, hands making seals and the slammed his palms on the ground.
Butsuma: "Water Release: Water Dragon Rising Wave!"
A column of surging water exploded upward, knocking Tajima to the sky. without giving Tajima time to react he released another Jutsu.
Butsuma: "Water Release: Water slice!"
A high pressured water jet was sprayed out of Butsuma's mouth making a deep cut on Tajima's chest, Tajima landed with vapors coming from his body and the cut healed instantly.
Butsuma: "Are you even human?"
Tajima: He looked at Senju and Uzumaki clan "This is boring, all of you come at once."
All the senju and Uzumaki ninjas present were boiling with anger, but they did not rush forward as they knew this fight was not something they can intervene. But some Uzumaki and Senju elders rushed in.
Tajima: "Fire Release: Fire is extinguished!"
A suffocating wave of flames swallowed everything in its path and sent a blast of scorching pressure in all directions. Due to the extremis serum the fire temperature was higher than usual.
Butsuma was about to use water release to stop the fire but it was too late. He was shocked by the huge scale of this Jutsu.
BOOM..!!!.
The earth cratered beneath him, and his entire front line was thrown backward by the heat pressure bomb.
Tajima: "You brought water to drown us, I brought fire to extinguish you."
Dust choked the battlefield, flames licked along cratered terrain, and the sky above turned copper with smoke.
Uzumaki Elder: "We need to fall back for now."
Butsuma: "Retreat!!"
Tajima: "Butsuma, This is your grave."
Just as he was about to rush forward he felt heart palpitations. He looked in the direction and found that Uzumaki elder was wearing weird a mask. He stopped his rush and watched the Senju and Uzumaki retreat. Watching him standing and not advance, Leo teleported next to him.
Leo: "What happened?"
Tajima: " That mask on Uzumaki elders face gave me bad feeling, my instincts told me not to rush blindly."
Leo: "Shinigami Mask, Lets fall back for now."
Both sides decided to fall back and readjust their strategies. Leo did not have any means to stop the Shinigami Mask as it has the power to call Shinigami.
