[When two of these Sharingan simultaneously use the Mangekyō, a third power—Susano'o—will also awaken. Of course, this ability is no longer a personal exclusive Dōjutsu, but a universal skill possessed by every Mangekyō Sharingan wielder.]
[The so-called Susano'o is the ultimate power dwelling within the Mangekyō Sharingan. It is the ultimate Dōjutsu that materializes enormous amounts of Chakra into a towering giant of war for combat, serving as both an absolute offense and defense. Furthermore, as the user's ocular power grows, Susano'o evolves through different stages.]
Kakashi now realized that the Chakra entity Sasuke had used in his battle against Danzō on the Sky Screen earlier was called Susano'o.
On the training ground, Sasuke stared intently at the Sky Screen. He didn't know which of the exclusive Dōjutsu mentioned earlier belonged to him, but he had to understand Susano'o thoroughly and couldn't afford to miss any information.
"Susano'o…" he muttered, a glint of longing flashing in his eyes.
The future version of himself seemed to be very skilled at this ability.
[Susano'o is divided into several stages based on the level of awakening—from the initial form that simply envelops the body or summons a single arm, to a materialized chakra form that covers the entire body, to donning the Karasu Tengu armor, and finally… to the Perfect Susano'o.]
[Perfect Susano'o is also known as the True Susano'o. It can only be activated by those who have pushed the ocular power of their Mangekyō Sharingan to its absolute limit and possess an immense amount of chakra. Its power can easily cleave apart mountains and meteorites, and it also has the ability to fly. Furthermore, it can form hand seals to execute Jutsus that the user specializes in.]
On the Sky Screen's screen, Perfect Susano'o of different colors appeared—blue, purple, cyan, and others. They varied in shape, standing hundreds of meters tall like veritable mountains. Adorned with Karasu Tengu armor and wielding two massive swords, they looked majestic and formidable beyond compare.
Just standing there, they made it hard for people to breathe.
Throughout the Shinobi World, the sound of people gasping in shock could be heard.
"W-What kind of monster is this?!"
"A giant hundreds of meters tall? How do you even fight that?!"
"Easily cleave apart mountains and meteorites?! Is this even Ninjutsu anymore?!"
"The Uchiha… really are terrifying. It's a relief they were wiped out."

[Konoha, Year One]
Madara stared at the colossal Susano'o on the Sky Screen, his eyes filled with shock.
That blue Susano'o was his own. But… aside from himself, why were there several other Perfect Susano'o in the future?
This wasn't right!
Perfect Susano'o required pushing the ocular power of the Mangekyō Sharingan to its absolute limit, as well as an enormous amount of chakra.
Even more crucially, without the Eternal Mangekyō, it was impossible to use at all.
He had obtained his Eternal Mangekyō by transplanting Izuna's eyes. How had these future Uchiha achieved it?
'The future… is truly interesting.' He wondered if he would ever get to meet them.
But what left the people of the Shinobi World even more speechless was that, beside those several Perfect Susano'o, another pale blue Susano'o slowly emerged.
The previous Susano'o didn't even reach its waist in height. They looked like children beside it!
Madara's pupils contracted sharply: "Whose is this?!"
This newly appeared Susano'o was unimaginably large. Just standing there, it seemed to hold up the very sky.
The oppressive feeling it gave off—even through the Sky Screen—made his heart race.
Hashirama was also stunned: "This… this is way too big, isn't it?"
They didn't know who it was.
But somewhere in the Shinobi World, a creature hidden in the darkness wore an expression of terrifying gloom, deep hatred flashing in its eyes.
"Hagoromo…"
"I didn't expect the Sky Screen to reveal even this… but it doesn't matter, the plan continues. Mother, I will definitely save you."
[Of course, saying it's the final form is also a bit inaccurate. For instance, Uchiha Madara and Edgelord also have the Majestic Attire: Susano'o. Honestly, the Nine-Tails really is quite smooth to use; combined with the Perfect Susano'o, it takes their might to a whole new level.]

[Konoha, Year 60. Inside Naruto's body]
In the sealed space, the Nine-Tails lay behind the bars, its eyes half-open, watching the Sky Screen through Naruto with boredom.
When the phrase "the Nine-Tails really is quite smooth to use" echoed from the Sky Screen, its eyes snapped wide open.
"Madara! That bastard!!"
Unpleasant memories flooded back, and the Nine-Tails' roar echoed throughout the sealed space. Violent Chakra surged, making the bars hum and vibrate.
What was even more unexpected was that an insignificant ant named "Edgelord" would also control it in the future!
The Nine-Tails slammed against the bars frantically, but to no avail. After a futile struggle, it let out a long, furious howl toward the sky.

[Konoha, Year One]
Madara's eyes lit up. So the Perfect Susano'o could also be combined with the Nine-Tails—this could further enhance the Susano'o's power!
This Sky Screen was truly useful. He just didn't know whether the Majestic Attire Susano'o could defeat Hashirama.
Of course, he didn't have any ill intentions. He just didn't want to keep losing to Hashirama.
Seeing Madara lost in thought, Hashirama immediately guessed what he was thinking. He put a hand to his forehead and sighed.
This dear friend of his was great in every way, except for his obsession with winning against him.
"Madara… the Nine-Tails is a dangerous creature. You must not entertain such dangerous thoughts!"
[And of course, there's also Edgelord's Perfect Susano'o after absorbing the chakra of all nine Tailed Beasts. The Indra's Arrow it unleashed was something even our Savior could barely withstand.]
Madara's eyes grew even brighter. He felt as though his horizons had been completely expanded.
So Susano'o could be used like this!
He hadn't been sure before, but now he was certain: if he gathered the chakra of all nine Tailed Beasts, Hashirama absolutely would not be able to defeat him!

[Konoha, Year 60]
After watching Danzō enter the Hokage building, Jiraiya did not follow. Whatever it was, he'd let the two old men argue it out themselves; he wasn't about to get caught in the crossfire.
It had been decades. Although the Old Man wanted to clear the weeds for Tsunade in his final days, Jiraiya didn't believe he would actually take action against Danzō.
It would be nothing more than a slap on the wrist. It had been like that for decades.
But… could this "Savior" on the Sky Screen be the Child of Prophecy?
This was the first time he had such a clear lead. Although he still didn't know who the Savior was, according to the Old Man, the so-called Edgelord was the future Uchiha Sasuke. He just couldn't understand why the Sky Screen called him that.
However, Jiraiya's brow soon frowned.
Sasuke would face off against the Savior in the future?
Was he going to destroy the world?
More importantly, if Sasuke was going to face the Savior in the future, then they must know each other.
Or at least, they would come to know each other in the future.
Then by following Sasuke… wouldn't he be able to find the Child of Prophecy?
