Madara Hunts Down Tailed Beasts! Hashirama Fails?! – Naruto 657

Naruto 657 see’s the awesome Madara Uchiha turn into an awesome powerhouse to which he currently has no other match to go against him. Sasuke, Sai and Naruto all try to get him back to which Sasuke is told that he’s only living on borrowed time to which he’s time will also come. Hashirama seems to have lost all hope to everything he has against Madara and seems to have trouble even touching him at this point. Madara has really grown powerful to which even any Tailed beast would have trouble going against. Obito is also going to die at this point, however Black Zetsu is keeping him alive until Madara has a better use for him, like using his eyes for a better purpose. Sasuke and Naruto have no idea what to do at this point.

Naruto 657 begins as Madara’s eyes begin to crack and disappear to which it seems that he’s going to have to get some real ones. Sasuke releases his Amaterasu which doesn’t seem to be affecting Madara as he mentions that something of such strength and caliber will not do much effect on him. He won’t even acknowledge it. Hashirama notices that he may have just absorbed that ninjutsu.

Naruto asks why he’s closing his eye for, to which Sasuke is told that it’s useless to attack with random techniques. Hashirama has a bad feeling about this. Madara mentions that for the universe to function properly, two opposing forces must be able to coexist, to which he then asks Hashirama if he remembers what he told him about the Uchiha Shrine.

When opposing forces find harmony, only then can true bliss be found. It could have also been interpreted as the man who learns to wield both the powers of the Uchiha and Senju shall come to know ecstasy, to which Madara seems to have settled on this idea. Hashirama mentions after leaving the village he studied some really bad stuff. To which Madara mentions that it was done by someone else.

Madara bites himself and blood flows, to which Hashirama is flabbergasted. He had every intention on being resurrected. Madara does a sign to which he speeds up really quickly and gets an attack on Sai and Naruto and holds Hashirama’s neck. Madara mentions that what has happened is according to plan. The face on Madara begins to show the signs similar to Hashirama.

He notices Senjutsu and mentions the level of power is disappointing and thus mentions that he was worried about manipulating it. Sasuke approaches him from behind and uses his sword and mentions that they won’t get a better chance than this to which he mentions that he’s planning on sending Madara to hell. Sasuke then mentions that he’s going to make him regret abandoning his Edo Tensei form.

Sasuke hits Madara’s arm cutting through his right arm however Madara holds the sword. Madara mentions that he can sense his Mangekyou Sharingan, to be Choku Tomeo (Literally meaning Straight Swirl). He see’s why he’s movements are so fluid, and thus he’s eyes will suffice until he gets his Rinnegan back.

Kakashi asks Obito what has just happened, to which Obito mentions that Madara has come back to life. Black Zetsu mentions that he’s fulfilled his purpose, and now that he’s used the Rinne Tensei, he should have no use and thus his duties are now complete, he’ll also be taking his left eye. Minato and Kakashi both try to get Zetsu but he molds to Obito.

He mentions that he’ll be able to keep Obito alive, Obito asks who he is. He answers by mentioning that he’s Madara’s will and mentions that he’s there only to take out people in Madara’s way. Zetsu mentions that they look at Madara too lightly as well as him. We go to the past when Zetsu had received orders from Madara to get close to Obito.

Zetsu mentions that he’s been utterly useless to them, doing anything he wants, however now he’s use to them. Madara tells Sasuke that he would be a waste to kill, why doesn’t he just team up with him, since they are the last Uchiha. He tells him that he’s barking up the wrong tree, the only thing he wants is his head. Madara mentions that he’s on borrowed time anyway. He uses his Hidden Ashes and Dust to which it pushed everyone around him back.

Hashirama mentions that Madara managed to regain his full power and thus won’t end well especially since his going right towards his next target. Madara begins to absorb the chakra Naruto gave out to everyone to which he heals his arm. From then he looks towards the Tailed beasts and mentions that he’s going to hunt them down. Naruto 657 ends here.

What an awesome chapter, Madara is going full on when it comes to attacking others. Even without his eyes he’s able to defeat such powerful people like Hashirama. At this point of time it seems that Hashirama is clearly disappointing me. I can’t believe he’s not even doing a thing against Madara. Should be awesome to see what the Tailed Beasts do about Madara coming for them during the next Naruto 658 chapter.
