Uchiha Madara relied on the power of the Rinnegan to fly, much like the Deva Path controlled by Nagato.
However, Uchiha Madara's control over the Rinnegan was clearly far superior to Nagato's, being the original owner of the Rinnegan.
But no matter how fast one flew, it couldn't compare to Lin Nan directly using Kamui to traverse space-time.
The spatial laws within the Kamui dimension were somewhat fragmented, making it a simple matter to cross a thousand li in a short period.
"Madara-sama, I still don't want to let you go so easily. How about we fight until dawn?"
Uchiha Madara, who was flying at full speed, broke out in a cold sweat at the sudden remark.
But unfortunately, Edo Tensei did not sweat.
"Sweat?"
After dodging abruptly, Uchiha Madara saw the space at his original location begin to distort, and a figure appeared.
Uchiha Madara was not flustered. He merely looked up at the sky and murmured, "No, it's rain! How nostalgic. I wonder when the last time I sweat was."
Lin Nan, who had appeared, didn't clearly hear what Uchiha Madara was saying, nor was he particularly interested. His only focus now was to kill Uchiha Madara and then plagiarize the Rinne Rebirth Jutsu.
The next moment, Lin Nan charged at Uchiha Madara like lightning, and a black rod appeared in his hand simultaneously.
This was Lin Nan's trump card.
Before this, even Uchiha Madara would have considered Dust Release to be the only jutsu threatening him.
But unfortunately, Dust Release had too long of a casting animation.
This small black rod was different. It appeared very frequently in the original story, and the key was that it was truly effective against Edo Tensei bodies.
Even the God of Shinobi, the First Hokage, and the Forbidden Jutsu Master, the Second Hokage, were not completely impaled by Uchiha Madara.
Therefore, this technique had a significant impact on ordinary Edo Tensei users, even strong ones like the First Hokage.
In other words, it had absolute suppressive power against Uchiha Madara.
The reason the black rod previously inserted by White Mask into Lin Nan was useless was fundamentally because Lin Nan's chakra flow did not primarily pass through meridians and acupoints, but rather through the system.
Therefore, sealing his acupoints with the black rod had no effect on Lin Nan.
"Madara-ji, let's dance again!"
Lin Nan, who had activated Lightning Style Chakra Mode, was moving extremely fast, approaching Uchiha Madara.
Upon seeing the black rod, Uchiha Madara was momentarily stunned.
After all, in his memory, only he and a select few could use this black rod. The prerequisite for using it was Outer Path power, similar to the power to control the Gedo Statue.
So, how did Lin Nan learn it?
Regarding Lin Nan, Uchiha Madara couldn't say he was convinced. He had never convinced anyone in his life, whether alive or dead. Even Hashirama would not be able to.
However, Lin Nan was too bizarre, one trick after another, never-ending.
He always had a way to surpass you.
Uchiha Madara could never have imagined that such a monstrous talent would appear in this era.
Who provoked such an existence? Wouldn't it be better to recruit him as an ally? Why provoke him?
Was it that brat Obito?
No, if he were this strong in his lifetime, Obito's few tricks would have been useless against him. So he must have had a fatal flaw in his lifetime.
But now, this flaw had been compensated for by Edo Tensei.
What were the characteristics of Edo Tensei?
Immortality, infinite chakra?
Then the result was obvious.
With his exceptionally high combat intelligence, Uchiha Madara understood Lin Nan's situation before and after his death in that instant.
However, it was now useless to say anything.
Even if he knew that Lin Nan's ability was to copy any ninjutsu he saw, it was not something he could simply choose not to use.
For example, if Uchiha Madara faced the Five Kage and Lin Nan, without using Susanoo and Wood Style, he would not be able to defeat the Five Kage.
Once a skill was unleashed, Lin Nan's ability would take effect.
This was a dead end, inescapable.
It could only be said that Lin Nan's ability was truly a gift from heaven.
Even if he had a fatal flaw in his lifetime, he should have been an unstoppable force.
Especially for those who lacked information. You practiced for decades, and as soon as you appeared, they were stolen from you, and they wouldn't be scared to death.
During his few hours of battle with Lin Nan, Uchiha Madara deeply understood this truth.
He couldn't persuade Lin Nan with his "talk-no-jutsu."
As for fighting, although he was reluctant to admit it, he really couldn't win.
Fighting Lin Nan gave Uchiha Madara the same feeling he had when he encountered Hashirama.
That feeling of being pressed to the ground and rubbed, yet utterly helpless.
If Uchiha Madara hadn't felt such familiar chakra from Lin Nan, he might have thought the young man in front of him was Hashirama's reincarnation.
Therefore, Uchiha Madara chose to leave. This was definitely not fleeing, at least that's what he thought.
As long as he found the Gedo Statue and combined it with the Ten-Tails, Uchiha Madara didn't believe Lin Nan could copy those.
Lin Nan's black rod was within inches, and Uchiha Madara's expression suddenly twisted.
At that moment, Lin Nan was momentarily stunned, feeling like he had seen Uchiha Madara's transformation videos from his past life's short videos, that same evil and ferocious smile.
"Shinra Tensei!"
A repelling force field began to surge around Uchiha Madara.
However, this was useless for Lin Nan at this time.
Lin Nan seemed to become transparent, directly passing through Uchiha Madara's gravity field, and the black rod struck again.
"You brat!"
Uchiha Madara, furious at Lin Nan's relentless pursuit, roared and extended a black rod from his palm.
Seeing this, Lin Nan revealed a triumphant smile and then materialized, not dodging, and directly pierced Uchiha Madara's body.
"Pfft!"
With two muffled thuds, Lin Nan's body also scattered into dust.
Both were pierced through the chest by the other's black rod at almost the same time.
"Lin Nan, I don't know how you stole this technique, but is such a mutual destruction worth it?"
At this moment, Uchiha Madara became unexpectedly calm.
Without further ado, Lin Nan retreated and thrust another black rod into Uchiha Madara's head.
"Crack!"
There was no blood or brains, only scattered dust.
"Brat, no manners!"
Uchiha Madara, with a black rod in his head, was not angry. His body began to fall uncontrollably towards the ground, and a confused voice echoed, "You weren't sealed by the black rod's chakra? Truly a kid full of surprises."
"It's too early to talk about surprises, just fade into the dust of history, Madara!"
Lin Nan's expression was calm, his hands slightly spread, and a cubic matrix appeared.
"Dust Release..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Nan suddenly stopped, his expression momentarily froze, and his body also began to fall involuntarily.
"What is this?"
He saw the black rod in his chest begin to spread throughout his body like Venom's Black Symbiote, and he instantly felt like he had lost control of his body.
"Hehehe, long time no see, little Lin, Lord Madara..."
