Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 639 Otsutsuki Isshiki VS Konoha Ninja [Part 2]

"Father……"

Asuma Sarutobi watched Hiruzen Sarutobi charge towards Isshiki Otsutsuki without the slightest hesitation and murmured to himself.

"Slap!" Someone placed a hand on Asuma's shoulder.

"Don't worry about it," came Youya's voice.

Asuma turned his head and saw that the Hokage had already arrived beside him.

"Hokage-sama!" Asuma looked at Yua with some surprise.

"Lord Hokage, you're here. What about those drones...?"

You Ya smiled slightly: "Since you said it's a drone, then naturally I don't need to operate it."

Sarutobi Asuma immediately understood.

It turns out that other people were controlling those drones...

Asuma gave a bitter smile, then looked up at Yua with some anxiety: "Hokage-sama, I don't understand why my father... chose to fight that enemy on his own?"

That enemy is very strong, right?

You Ya smiled slightly and slowly glanced at the others: "You all have this question, right?"

Uchiha Shisui nodded, and Hatake Kakashi also nodded.

Uchiha Kagami and Hatake Sakumo were among the first to charge forward.

Yu Ya: "Well... that has to do with the era they lived in."

Yuya closed her eyes slightly, and after everyone around her looked puzzled, she slowly opened them and said, "I only discovered this recently myself..."

Ever since Akimichi Torifu passed away, Uncle Kagami and the others have been very worried.

Choza Akimichi of the Akimichi clan stepped forward in confusion: "Is this something that has to do with our Akimichi clan?"

You Ya nodded and said in a deep voice, "Because... they died too easily."

Everyone was stunned at the same time.

Ignoring the expressions of those around him, Yuya looked at the figure fighting on Otsutsuki Isshiki's side and slowly said, "Akimichi Torifu did not die on the battlefield, nor did he die in the process of a ninja completing a mission, nor did he die on the way to contribute to the village."

He simply fell ill, and after recovering, he lost the essence of his body, which weakened him, and then he died.

It's that simple.

There was no conspiracy involved, no other scheming involved, it was all natural...

Therefore, it is meaningless.

Choza Akimichi was puzzled: "This... Hokage-sama, why is this? Isn't it better to die like this? Although it might not be the right thing to say, isn't it better for my father to die peacefully like this?"

Choza Akimichi truly didn't understand, or rather, many people here couldn't understand.

The only one who could understand was a member of that family.

People from the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Itachi slowly closed his eyes and sighed.

Uchiha Shisui remained silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I think so too... Lately, I've felt that Grandpa often seems absent-minded, and I don't know what he's thinking..."

The others all looked at Uchiha Shisui.

Kakashi frowned and asked, "So, what's the reason? Why are they fighting the Otsutsuki clan to the death, and not letting us join in?!"

Uchiha Shisui didn't speak, but looked at Yua.

Yuya put his hands in his pockets and watched the people fighting back and forth with Otsutsuki Ichishiki.

"It's because it's too mundane..." Yuya said slowly, "A mundane death... instilled fear in them about their own fate."

Everyone else was stunned.

You Ya smiled slightly and continued, "Think about it carefully. They were born in a time of war and were taught from a young age to dedicate their lives to the village and to give everything for the honor of their family. Therefore, they are not afraid of death."

It was the same when I went to the battlefield with my uncle, the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju. They were not afraid of dying, but they were afraid of dying in a meaningless way.

The death of Akimichi Torifu made them feel that their lives, which were nearing their end, were meaningless.

Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki exchanged a glance, their eyes conveying a clear message: Do you understand?

Naruto glared back: "What the hell do I understand?! Isn't a peaceful life good enough? Why do I have to fight with others? Especially risking my life?!"

Youya smiled slightly at the bewildered expressions of the people around him: "Actually, you don't need to try to understand them."

They were all old-timers from the old era, and the new world no longer had warships capable of carrying them.

Just keep this mindset. Don't try to understand what these old folks are thinking; they're just...

All I wanted was to leave behind their names before I died.

As soon as he finished speaking, on the battlefield, Uchiha Kagami activated Susanoo.

Compared to Sasuke and Itachi's Susanoo, which were not yet fully mature, Kagami Uchiha's Susanoo, even with only half a body, was already tens of meters tall.

It can be said that Susanoo alone is enough to give Isshiki Otsutsuki a hard time.

But that wasn't all. Hiruzen Sarutobi bit his finger and summoned a horse.

Ma Lou transforms into a tool monkey, turning a stick into something enormous.

Then Susanoo grabbed the staff and slammed it down hard on Isshiki Otsutsuki.

Otsutsuki Isshiki's expression changed. He was about to defend himself when he suddenly realized that he couldn't move.

Nara Shika also gave a cold laugh: "Even if you can counter my ninjutsu, your body still can't escape my Shadow Imitation Technique in an instant!"

At the same time, Sakumo Hatake's figure appeared behind Isshiki Otsutsuki in an instant...

"Got it!" Sakumo Hatake swung his blade fiercely toward Isshiki Otsutsuki's neck...

Everyone felt that this attack was enough to behead Otsutsuki Isshiki.

However, the next moment...

"laugh"

Dark energy erupted from Isshiki Otsutsuki's body.

This energy then enveloped Isshiki Otsutsuki, forming a giant bowl shape.

【Sealing Jar】

Originally a ninjutsu that could seal away opponents, Otsutsuki Isshiki uses it here to protect himself.

With a "clang," Susanoo's giant club slammed into the sealing jar, and then, due to the enormous recoil, the club was bounced away.

Susanoo even staggered back a little because of this attack.

At the same time, although this attack did not damage the sealing pot, it directly caused the entire earth to tremble violently through the shockwave...

You Ya crossed his arms over his chest, showing no concern whatsoever.

Because this place is quite a distance from the village. And over in the village...

Tsunade, along with the village's medical and defensive ninjas, stood at the closest point in the village to this location, preparing for defense.

The power of this attack was not enough to break through their defensive lines and damage the village.
