The Battle Of The Sages(2)

"This roar will have no effect on me, those mere underhanded tactics are no match to my will and power to create the world of peace we all dream of." Hashirama placed his hand towards Emma-ō

"AH!" the wooden dragon who was over the wooden golem's shoulder jumped on Emma-ō and coiled around his upper body.

The wooden golem hardened its grip around his body in an attempt of making it burst, Hashirama thought of this because Emma-ō was made out of mud.

"SPLASHH!" Emma-ō's upper body bursted, for a second Hashirama thought that his plan was a success.

"Hashirama, have you perhaps forgotten that Emma-ō is unbreakable?" Emma-ō's upper body immediately regenerated.

It grew two other mud arms on its back, the two arms each grew a mace and slammed it on the wooden dragon, submerging it with lava.

The wooden golem punched back at Emma-ō, this time it connected. The only thing was that it didn't inflict real damage, Hashirama didn't know how to take care of Emma-ō yet.

From Emma-ō's body, gigantic mud snakes came out and coiled around the wooden golem while still being connected to him.

They pulled the wooden golem closer to Emma-ō, the wooden golem was struggling to not get pulled closer.

The mace in Emma-ō's right hand changed forms and became a sword, he swung the blade down on the wooden golem's head.

Hashirama who stood there, looked at the hardening blade. He clapped his hands, from the wooden golem's head grew a big dome. The dome covered Hashirama and the top of the wooden golem's head.

Emma-ō grabbed one of the heads out of the pillar and threw it at the wooden golem. It exploded upon contact, spreading black volcanic ash all over it.

From Emma-ō's judge cap, a massive amount of flames were traveling towards the wooden golem. Upon reaching it, the hot flames warmed the volcanic ash up.

The gazes set free and spread all over the wooden golem. This attack would not hurt the wooden golem in any way, it was meant for Hashirama.

Inside of the wooden dome, Hashirama's eyes and skin started itching. He knew why, Hashirama opened his wooden dome and jumped down.

The wooden golem kept fighting against Emma-ō while Kentaro jumped down to join Hashirama.

Hashirama saw what Kentaro was holding above his hand, he jumped took as much distance as possible. He had seen what damage it could provoke, but now it could provoke even more damage.

Kentaro was holding a rasenshuriken the size of a tailed beast bomb, it looked very intimidating. Kentaro ran and threw it towards the far Hashirama.

Hashirama was sweating, he looked at the incoming rasenshuriken. He bit his finger and placed it on the trees beneath him.

"Summoning Jutsu: Five-Layer Rashomon!"

The five Rashomon gates came out of the ground one by one. Hashirama knew that this attack would provoke immense damage in the area, he could only change its trajectory and hope that it would go somewhere 'safer'.

"BOOOOOM!" the rasenshuriken made them fall down one by one, Hashirama's heart skipped a beat for a second. When the rasenshuriken reached the last gate, its trajectory changed.

Hashirama looked at the rasenshuriken passing one hair next to him, it traveled far away towards a few mountains.

"BOOOOOOM!" the ground trembled, the rasenshuriken had destroyed the mountains to pieces. Hashirama's expression became very serious, he knew that Kentaro could use attacks even stronger.

Hashirama saw how his wooden golem was in difficulty against Emma-ō, he didn't know of a way to destroy it. The only way was to scatter all the existing mud, but it was an impossible task to do.

"Sage Art: Gracious Deity Gates!" from the sky, numerous red Torii gates fell down on Emma-ō and pinned him down.

Arms, legs, neck, he was rendered unable to move. Kentaro tried to shift Emma-ō's body to make him escape the Torri gates, he was unable to do that.

"Wood Style: Laughing Buddha Jutsu!" eight wooden hands came out of the ground around Kentaro and rapidly traveled towards him.

'Impressive, they are each the size of a tailed beast.' Kentaro formed hand seals before they could reach him. Normally this jutsu is used to grab an opponent, but Hashirama had other plans.

"Sage Art: The Eight Monkey Paws!" eight monkey paws came out of the ground, they were dark brown in color.

The eight monkey paws traveled to the eight wooden hands and intercepted them. The wooden hands tried to overpower the monkey paws, only two of them were able to do it. The rest of the hands were destroyed and paws returned to the ground.

"Gravitational Push!" Kentaro tried to push the two incoming massive hands, he was only able to stop them and not push them.

When the effect of the gravitational push faded away, the hands came in on Kentaro even faster. The wooden hands slapped together, Kentaro had been capture in between them.

"I will seal you away, for the good of Konoha and the world!" Hashirama formed countless hand seals, he slowly brought his hands together.

Kentaro was feeling weaker by the second, he could feel his eyes getting heavier. It seemed as if he was tired, so tired that he would sleep for an eternity.

'Hashirama is trying to seal me away. I wo-" Kentaro's eyes shut down, he fell asleep. From outside, Hashirama saw the golden light flash between the two hands.

"I've sealed Kentaro, there is no doubt that Iwa will declare a war on us." Hashirama was panting, he looked around and saw how damaged the whole landscape was.

"Maybe I'll be able to find a way and stop them from doing this." Emma-ō became but the massive pile of mud that created him.

'Unsealing Palm Jutsu' Hashirama looked at the two joined wooden hands deintegregate, he couldn't believe his eyes.

Kentaro fell down, he slowly stood up. Hashirama only gazed at him with an unbelievable look.

"You nearly got me, Hashirama." Kentaro formed hand seals, Hashirama could feel the amount of chakra that was going to be used.

'There's no doubt, he will use his strongest attack.' Hashirama used his speed to quickly get far away, he knew that using the Five-Layer Rashomon was not going to work this time.

"Sage Art: Wood Style: Shinsu Senju Veritable One Thousand-Armed Kan'on!" Kentaro looked at that titanic figure of wood with close to a thousand arms behind it, Hashirama was standing on top of its head.

If Kentaro said that he wasn't impressed and a little bit scared, that would be a big lie. Kentaro wasn't sure if his jutsu would be able to stop the full might of Hashirama's jutsu.

"Kentaro, be warned! I will show no pity this time!" the titanic wooden figure started moving towards Kentaro.

Kentaro looked intently at the wooden figure and gulped, he looked at it approaching and getting closer by the second. He had to act quickly before it got too close.

"Sage Art: Earth Style: The Nine Subliminal Embodiments Of The Stone's Will!" nine massive stone warriors grew from the ground.

They each had a thick and decorated stone armor, they each wore Iwa's forehead protector but had no faces. In their hands, they each had a white transparent bow and arrow.

"Wood Style: Summit Enlightment!" when close enough, the one thousand arms descended with the sole purpose of terminating Kentaro's life once and for all.

When Kentaro looked at the one thousand arms, he saw a weapon of mass destruction, he saw incoming doom. The nine stone warriors charged their bows and fired their gigantic arrows.

The nine gigantic arrows met with the one thousand arms. Everything seemed so silent and calm to Kentaro and Hashirama when they looked at that sprinkle of light.

"BOOOOOOOOOM!" a white blinding light shone, the nine gigantic particle style arrows dealt massive damage to the one thousand hands and so did they.

The explosion destroyed everything in the whole area, Kentaro and Hashirama were lying wounded on the ground.

The two sages fell simultaneously!
