The Rebirth of Killer Seven: Shadows of the Uchiha

Ryuji's quest for power would eventually lead him to one of the most legendary figures in the history of the Uchiha clan—Uchiha Madara, the founder of the clan and one of the most powerful shinobi ever to exist. Madara had been in hiding for years, waiting for the perfect moment to reclaim his position of power in the world. And when he sensed Ryuji's presence, he knew that this prodigy was no ordinary Uchiha.

The encounter between Ryuji and Madara was a clash of titanic willpower. Madara, with his immense wisdom and terrifying power, initially saw Ryuji as a mere puppet to be used for his own ambitions. But Ryuji, fueled by the memories of his past life and his insatiable thirst for strength, was not content to be anyone's pawn. Their battle was fierce, a battle of ideologies as much as of power. Ryuji's new dojutsu clashed with Madara's perfected Rinnegan, and the landscape was left shattered in their wake.

But Ryuji's growth had outpaced Madara's expectations. In a moment of quiet realization, Madara acknowledged Ryuji's potential—not as a mere tool, but as someone who could become far more than he ever had been. He saw in Ryuji the potential to bring about the long-awaited revolution of the Uchiha clan. Ryuji, on the other hand, recognized that Madara's goals—his thirst for a perfect world—could align with his own desires for power. Together, they would reshape the world in their image.

Madara took Ryuji under his wing, teaching him the ancient techniques of the Wood Release, a forbidden jutsu that could only be wielded by those with a deep connection to the chakra of the Sage of Six Paths. The Wood Release, which had once been the unique ability of Hashirama Senju, was now something Ryuji could wield with terrifying proficiency. The fusion of Wood Release and the Mangekyo Sharingan was not something Madara had ever envisioned, but Ryuji's new form of chakra control was unparalleled.
