Everyone was talking about Madara's reflexes and Rinnegan mastery that we overlooked a feat that once again solidifies his advance knowledge and skills.

Madara knows where to locate and block Tenketsu. As the manga suggests, only the Hyuuga who possess Byakugan can see and exploit Tenketsu. Aside from the Hyuuga, Tsunade who was able to analyze the damage done by frs to the Chakra pathway system probably has knowledge with the Tenketsu too.

It's completely different from the Hyuuga actually.

The Hyuuga could block/speed up chakra flow, not chakra molding.

If they block the chakra point, that means chakra backs up, not stops from forming.

Also, Madara stabbed through pressure points, not chakra points.

The way Madara used made them unable to mold chakra, it didn't stop the chakra flow, like with the Hyuuga technique.

Whatever chakra they have now is as much as that will remain, especially for an edo tensei who possess infinite chakra, now he has a limit, which he can't recover from.

EDIT: Hashirama even said, "I'll transfer my remaining chakra to you"
Meaning that he can't mold his infinite chakra anymore, and only has a limited supply again.

Possibly true.....but I wonder what the Viz says. Other than that; I agree.

That is actually quite the feat to hit them in battle but madara has so much BS and plot going for him it does not matter, really he should not be able to

Tenketsu (点穴; English TV "Chakra Points"; Literally meaning "Pressure points") are simply nodes from which chakra can be released. There are 361 tenketsu in the body, each one being a checkpoint on the Chakra Pathway System.

I don't know how concrete this is, but this! I know he can't use the Hyuugas tech. Seems he has his own way of disrupting chakra through tenketsu.

It can't be that concrete, since you say there's 361 points, when in the fight between Neji vs Naruto he says " I struck all 64* of your chakra points"

How can they be the same if the have different numbers?

Neji and Hiashi Hyūga in particular have demonstrated the ability to use Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven, expelling chakra from all 361 tenketsu simultaneously in order to guard against and repel enemy attacks. The Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms closes sixty-four tenketsu.

This is from Naruto wiki....I'm not saying this.

Neji probably just blocked those that flows into Naruto's body to his palms where a common Shinobi molds chakra.

I'm not saying they have the same way of blocking pressure points. Clearly Madara uses rods to perform his which quite seemingly more effective as he doesn't have to resort to close quarter combat.
Also pressure points is the translation for tenketsu.

Not really BS if Kishi wants to imply and emphasize Madara's knowledge which is pretty much justified considering he lived far longer than anyone else and had access to exclusive powers.
