I, Naruto Uzumaki, don't need your approval.

Naruto shook his head: "Hunting down the clan's warriors was just a fluke. I came here this time to ask Kaguya about something."

"What is it?" Perhaps because she had relieved her loneliness, Kaguya was in a pretty good mood.

"News regarding Isshiki Otsutsuki!"

"Ichishiki? Wasn't he already dead?" Kaguya said with some doubt, "I killed him with my own hands. Given his condition at the time, unless he immediately activated the Reincarnation Jutsu..."

"Wait, did Shiki prepare a container in advance?"

Naruto nodded and said, "According to the information I have, Isshiki has indeed found a vessel for reincarnation, but the vessel is not perfect. It has been lurking somewhere in the ninja world for many years, and it may be in some other dimension for a long time."

Kaguya's expression turned serious. She could ignore others, but not Ichishiki.

Isshiki held a higher position within the clan than him. She should have been the one to sacrifice herself to the Ten-Tails, but she discovered the chakra fruit and the Ten-Tails growing in the ninja world beforehand and chose to strike first.

As if sensing Kaguya's inner turmoil, Naruto looked at Black Zetsu beside him and explained:

"This is also why I stopped Black Zetsu from implementing the Eye of the Moon Plan and launching the Infinite Tsukuyomi Plan, in order to avoid internal strife between you and the Hagoromo Ancestor."

"Ancestor Kaguya might consider a love pact: if you and Ancestor Hagoromo both suffer heavy losses, who will ultimately benefit?"

After meeting the Sage of Six Paths in the Pure Land and Kaguya in the sealed space.

Naruto then realized that the Sage of Six Paths and Kaguya's strength far exceeded that of ordinary Otsutsuki, since other Otsutsuki had to hand over their chakra, while the Sage of Six Paths and Kaguya kept it for their own use.

However, the power of the Sage of Six Paths and Kaguya was not enough to deal with the Otsutsuki main family, and was instead exhausted due to the falling out between mother and son.

In order to reseal Kaguya Otsutsuki, who had escaped, the Sage of Six Paths expended almost half of the power of the Pure Land.

The mutual destruction directly led to Isshiki's rise and activity; otherwise, even after his reincarnation, Isshiki Otsutsuki would not have been a match for the Sage of Six Paths and Kaguya.

Upon hearing these words, Black Zetsu looked somewhat embarrassed; his efforts to save his mother had almost turned into a grave mistake.

Kaguya fell into deep thought. After careful consideration, she felt that Naruto's words made a lot of sense. If she really had a conflict with Hagoromo, Isshiki might very well follow her example and launch a sneak attack.

Furthermore, even without actively showing themselves, they can secretly collect chakra from this nursery.

However, Isshiki also found other Otsutsuki. Even if he had another Ten-Tails, what difference would it make? The real threat would still be the people from his own clan. Calculating the time, the time for harvesting the Chakra Fruit is almost here.

Pulling her wandering thoughts back, Kaguya hesitated before saying, "I understand your intention to deal with Isshiki, but I am still sealed within Hagoromo and cannot leave this space."

"That's easy to handle. I've mastered the technique to dispel the Earth Explosion Star."

Upon hearing this, Kaguya showed an excited expression, while Naruto warned, "Ancestor Kaguya, I can let you leave this place, but you must promise me that you will never again have the idea of ​​turning living people into White Zetsu!"

Kaguya said in a low voice, "The Ten-Tails is currently inside you, and I can't transform into a White Zetsu even if I wanted to, but I promise you."

Naruto ignored Kaguya and then looked at Kaguya's external brain, Black Zetsu.

After being swept over by a playful gaze, Black Zetsu felt a chill and his body began to tremble uncontrollably. Naruto clearly knew everything, yet he had been toying with him all along. This cunning was terrifying.

After intimidating Black Zetsu, Naruto kept his word, clasped his hands together, and released the seal on Kaguya.

Freed from the constraints of Chibaku Tensei, Kaguya regained her sense of the outside world and immediately activated Yomotsu Hirasaka, causing a rift to open in space.

Upon seeing the starry sky outside the spatial rift, Kaguya was as excited as a child, waving at Naruto and saying, "Ashura, should we go straight to Isshiki, or stay in the ninja world for a while?"

Naruto stepped into the spatial rift and arrived on the moon in outer space, looking down at the distant ninja world.

Just as he guessed, Kaguya was sealed on the moon, but in a different dimension. Only after mastering spacetime abilities could he find Kaguya.

After Kaguya escaped, Naruto was not worried about her launching a sneak attack.

Firstly, most of Kaguya's chakra was in his possession, limiting his strength. Secondly, he had mastered the Six Paths: Planetary Devastation Technique, a very useful technique for the Otsutsuki clan.

After all, it was produced by the Sage of Six Paths, which is akin to a lower-dimensional attack.

After pausing for a moment, Naruto chuckled and said, "Let's go find Isshiki Otsutsuki first. After we've dealt with this trouble, I'd like to show our ancestor around the ninja world. The development over the past thousand years has been incredibly fast."

After careful consideration, Kaguya continued to activate Yomotsu Hirasaka and headed to the next alternate dimension.

After venturing into several different dimensions—a world of yellow sand, a world of ice and snow, a world of lava—Naruto and Kaguya were still unable to find any trace of Isshiki Otsutsuki.

On the contrary, Naruto gained a new understanding of the number of spatial coordinates that Kaguya possessed.

After consuming the Chakra Fruit, Kaguya has been relentlessly searching for alternate dimensions to prevent the Otsutsuki clan from coming after her; she truly has multiple burrows.

They then traveled to several other dimensions, including the three great holy lands. Kaguya looked confused and stopped to ask, "Naruto, is Isshiki dead?"

“Impossible, Isshiki couldn’t be dead,” Naruto said firmly.

Kaguya frowned, then activated a vortex leading to the next alternate dimension. After visiting dozens of these dimensions, Kaguya suddenly became extremely serious and said earnestly:

“I sensed the presence of Yishiki; he has been here for a long time.”

Looking at the nearby desolate plateau, Naruto also memorized Isshiki's chakra aura. To be precise, the Isshiki at this moment is not Isshiki, but the monk Jigen who has been marked with a wedge.

After several hours of continuous space travel, Kaguya and Naruto were both quite tired.

After resting for a while, they began exploring the alternate dimension. About several tens of minutes later, spatial fluctuations reappeared.

Naruto and Kaguya exchanged a glance, then began to conceal their presence, merging with the earth.

A moment later, two figures emerged from the spatial vortex. One was a monk with black incantations, and the other was a bearded young man.

After entering the alternate dimension, the monk said to the young man, "Amado, my research base is not bad, is it? I can provide you with ample funds and experimental materials. In return, you will help me complete the modification plan and transplant the cells I provide into the experimental subjects."

The young man called Amado was very excited and quickly said, "Thank you, Lord Jigen. But Lord Jigen, are you conducting these experiments and modifications to replace the rule of the Five Great Nations? Why not just join the Ninja Alliance?"

"The Ninja Alliance not only serves ninjas, but also provides a path for ordinary people to become ninjas... With your strength, you will quickly be valued and able to utilize your talents after you join."

Too lazy to explain to Amado, Ichishiki said coldly, "The Ninja Alliance can only make you a ninja and teach you those acrobatic ninjutsu. My method is different. I can bring you close to the gods and make you a god."

Amado nodded in agreement, while simultaneously questioning the new boss's mental state.

The boss's strength is at most that of a Jonin, and even the Five Great Ninja Villages cannot shake him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been hiding his true colors all this time, even researching gods. He should be thinking more about how to gain a place in the Ninja Alliance.

Of course, what Amado didn't know was that what Ichimoku was really studying was the gods.

It's perfectly normal for Isshiki to look down on the Five Great Ninja Villages. If nothing unexpected happens, Amado will soon be able to obtain power surpassing that of the Five Kage as his research progresses.

To cultivate cyborgs who possess at least Kage-level strength.

These people either mastered Sage Mode or could absorb chakra and repurpose it for their own use; their physical characteristics all matched some aspect of the Otsutsuki clan.

However, at that moment, Kaguya and Naruto blocked their way from the front and back.

Why would there be other people at the boss's base? Could they be other researchers? Amado was somewhat puzzled and was about to go forward to greet them when Yishi's expression turned extremely ugly, and he said through gritted teeth:

"Kaguya, you wretched servant, you actually escaped! It must have been the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki who saved you!"

"Upon hearing the term 'lowly servant'..." Kaguya's face darkened, her eyes filled with murderous intent. She then condensed the All-Killing Ash Bones and lunged at Ichishi.

Enemies meeting are bound to be filled with hatred.

Without hesitation, Otsutsuki Isshiki condensed his black rod into a staff shaped like an eyebrow tip to meet Otsutsuki Kaguya's attack.

Chapter 326 The Death and Future of One Style

The battle between Isshiki Otsutsuki and Kaguya Otsutsuki was quite simple.

There were no fancy ninjutsu or genjutsu; it was just a contest of divine and taijutsu, purely like a battle between two genin.

However, the power of Otsutsuki's taijutsu is comparable to opening all eight gates. A casual strike can destroy a defense like Susanoo, blast a huge crater in the ground, and the shockwave can make ordinary ninjas cough up blood.

The young Amado was completely dumbfounded as he stared at the two flashing figures in front of him.

The destructive power of Isshiki and Kaguya far exceeded his imagination. Even the Five Kage of the Five Great Shinobi Villages were no more powerful than them. But he wondered if he would die here from the aftermath of their battle.

Naruto saw through Amado's thoughts, approached him, and said in a low voice:

"The leaders of the five great ninja villages are no match for these two. They are Otsutsuki, and in the minds of ordinary people, they can be considered gods."

Is that how it is?

Amado was also somewhat moved, and then he couldn't help but look at Naruto, his eyes widening.

Isn't this one of the two who attacked Boss Cixian? Why did they suddenly target me? Do I really hold that much importance in the eyes of these monsters?

Naruto chuckled softly, sized up this research fanatic from the Boruto era for a while, and fell into deep thought.

If nothing unexpected happens, this young man should be Amado, a scientist from the Kara organization. In the Boruto storyline, he cloned Jiraiya's clone, Kashin Koji, and also created a series of powerful cyborgs.

Most cyborgs possess near-Kage-level equipment, but can only unleash Kage-level power.

Boruto transformed Naruto and Sasuke into humans, who were easily beaten up. However, some of the cyborgs possessed abilities that were incredibly powerful. One of them could deflect malicious attacks and was essentially an enhanced version of Hidan.

The other is the ability to know all the past information of the ninja world and to change human perception.

Its effect is no less than launching the Infinite Tsukuyomi in the real world. It is a technique that is stronger than imagined. It is for this reason that he chose to become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki and had his eyes installed by Urashiki Otsutsuki.

After all, while these techniques are invincible, they have a fatal flaw: they are ineffective against Otsutsuki...

However, Amado's ability to create so many cyborgs is most likely not due to some extraordinary technology, but rather because the materials are of high quality. If nothing unexpected happens, it is likely that Otsutsuki Shibai's corpse is in Isshiki's hands.

If we could obtain Isshiki Otsutsuki's corpse, perhaps we could unlock the secrets of the Otsutsuki clan.

Suddenly, Naruto looked toward Kaguya's location. After fighting for more than ten minutes, Kaguya gradually fell into a disadvantageous position and was forced to rush toward his location.

This scene left Naruto speechless, and he couldn't help but say, "Kaguya, you can't possibly be no match for Isshiki Otsutsuki, can you?"

Kaguya fell silent, her aggrieved expression saying it all, and hid behind Naruto.

"If I were in my prime, I could definitely kill Isshiki again!"

Kaguya's words silenced Naruto, who looked at her with concern for the weakling, and suddenly understood why Kaguya was so afraid of the warriors of the Otsutsuki clan.

Kaguya, who is used to crushing the enemy, becomes helpless when faced with an evenly matched situation or a slightly weaker enemy. She doesn't know how to deal with it, nor does she know how she managed to launch a successful sneak attack back then.

After comforting his aggrieved great-grandmother, Naruto drew his sword and looked at Isshiki.

In the battle just now, although Kaguya did not defeat Isshiki, she almost forced Isshiki to use his second stage. Isshiki's body, Jigen's body, is now on the verge of collapse.

Looking at Naruto wielding the Otsutsuki Sword, Isshiki wore a solemn expression.

With his millennia of accumulated combat experience, he could easily defeat Kaguya, but he had no confidence whatsoever against this unfathomable young Otsutsuki.

The only option was to find an opportunity during the battle and use a space-time ninjutsu to escape.

Without time to think, Naruto appeared behind Isshiki and slashed at Isshiki's neck with his longsword. After being blocked by the black rod, Naruto used his other hand to unleash a Rasengan and smash it down.

With a whoosh, the Rasengan vanished into thin air, as if it had never existed.

Naruto frowned slightly, then looked at Isshiki's eyes. Isshiki had a Byakugan and a rice-shaped eye. He had no interest in the Byakugan or the Hyuga clan's Byakugan, but the rice-shaped eye recorded two divine techniques.

One is the Shona Bikana, which can shrink itself and non-living things; the other is the Daikokuten, which stops time inside; in addition, there is the Otsutsuki Treasure called the Sealing Cauldron.
