Characters: Edo Madara versus Prime Madara with Rinnegan (achieved before his death, no mastery) and Prime Hashirama Senju

Location: Valley of the End

Distance: One hundred meters

Restriction: Meteor

Comment: Madara and Hashirama have a common goal, the destruction of Edo Madara. They recognize him as stronger than either of them and agree to set aside their differences to fight together as a team, no holds barred. They have one minute of preparation before the battle starts. Madara and Hashirama have access to sealing techniques.

I’ll add an additional comment in answer to the first posts: Naruto is currently sipping a Margarita on a tropical beach, with Kurama safe and warm behind the seal.

Scenario 2: Madara has full mastery of the Rinnegan.

Scenario 3: Minato joins the fray.

Scenario 3: Minato's arrival of course means that Edo Madara gets curbstormped

Now for the others: Usually two vs one would have the two win it but there is one thing that puts Edo Madara over the rest: Rinnegan

Interesting Match-up, Madara and Hashirama should be able to get the job done, if not Minato seals the deal.

EdoMadaras Rinnengan means that Chakra based attacks are out of the question.
EdoMadara is also capabale of stripping Kurama of his chakra and using it for himself.
Futhermore, if anyone comes into physical contact with EdoMadara, he can rip there souls from their respective host bodies.

This means that Taijutsu, Ninjutsu and Kurama are no means to victory for Madara and Hashirama.

Wood release is not necessary made of chakra, however since both EdoMadara and Hashirama have it, it is not a game changer. In addition to all that, EdoMadara has rapid edotensei regeneration.....

EdoMadara wins.

The problem is that the extra endurance that senju cells give works with the EMS/Rinnegan a lot. Which means that Edo Madara can do what Madara could, but for longer periods of time unless Hashirama can replenish other peoples' chakra.

[imot744]

Not quite sure if minato is a game changer.
Minato is significant once he can teleport to EdoMadara and seal him in one strike (EdoMadara has not chance of responding quick enough)

The question is, how does we want to get a kunai close enough (past Shinra Tensei and other means of stopping kunai) and secondly, how does he want to put a transportation seal on edo madara?

The only way i see this as working, is when Harashimara distracts EdoMadara with mokuton, Madara assumes full control of Kurama and fires super massive Tailed beast bomb at Minato, Minato absorbs it with transportation technique and send it directly into EdoMadaras face!

What's up with all these Madara & Hashirama threads in a row ?

What can this Madara do? He died as an old man, his body riddled with wounds from the battle at VoTE against Hashirama.

I would suggest replacing him with prime EMS Madara, as the one you have would be completely useless.

Wait, what?
What suggests he died as an old man?
Or that he died injured?

It’s Prime Madara with mastered EMS and an unmastered Rinnegan. I added the precisions in the opening to avoid confusion.

The fact that he knew Nagato (even this is proof enough) long enough to give him the Rinnegan, and die passing on a series of instructions for his revival.

The fact that he fought Hashirama in "a fight to the death." Given Hashirama's condition, it's safe to say that Madara came out no better, evidence suggesting he took an even greater constitutional punishment.

This thread should be closed, as we don't know how strong Prime Madara or Prime Shodai are.
