From the night of genocide, marching towards the strongest.

The last time she schemed against someone like Danzo was that guy.

Of course, it's also possible that this mysterious Otsutsuki was completely unprepared for Otsutsuki Tsurugi to know this set of taijutsu and fist techniques.

Judging from his performance, it's not hard to guess that pure-blooded Otsutsuki like Otsutsuki, who possess most of the Otsutsuki secret techniques in their bloodline memories but inherit taijutsu, are rare, or even nonexistent.

In short, due to the combination of various factors, Otsutsuki Tsurugi, whose power level was similar to that of Uchiha Madara at this time, achieved even more brilliant results.

At this moment, the sounds around Otsutsuki Isshiki ceased, the wind stopped moving, and tiny, motionless dust particles floated in the air.

As Ōtsutsuki's fingertip drew closer to his neck, Ōtsutsuki suddenly noticed some tiny black specks on his neck, which were rapidly expanding.

So that's how it is...

No wonder.

At such close range, time was delayed in the presence of the mysterious Otsutsuki.

Otsutsuki finally discovered the secret behind the instantaneous attack of his black rods, and why the mysterious Otsutsuki was able to disappear instantly just now.

A loud bang, the sound of metal shattering.

After Ōtsutsuki's finger strike shattered the head of the black rod in front of the mysterious Ōtsutsuki's neck, it was firmly blocked and could not advance even an inch further.

It failed.

No, it's only just begun.

Otsutsuki sighed inwardly, but her expression didn't show much disappointment, because she knew that even if her finger strike had hit her opponent, it wouldn't have killed this mysterious Otsutsuki.

At most, it would destroy his body, his "device," forcing his true form, whose condition was unknown, to appear prematurely.

Seeing that her attack had missed, Otsutsuki Yuki did not hesitate at all and immediately fled into the distance.

At the same time, as it receded, its fair and delicate skin seemed to shimmer with a glassy light.

However, she once again used the True Scripture Mirror to form an invisible barrier to protect herself from the mysterious Otsutsuki's black rod attack.

The ability to zoom in and out sounds simple and straightforward.

But precisely because it is simple and straightforward, it is often extremely practical, yet also extremely troublesome.

Take the battle between the two as an example: one attacks, the other moves, and the other defends. The dust kicked up contains countless particles.

Who can guarantee that there aren't any tiny black rods hidden among those billions of particles?

Even using a large-scale clearing ninjutsu like Shinra Tensei to clear the area wouldn't work.

Who can guarantee that the fibers in their clothes, skin, and hair are completely free of dust?

Are there any shrunken black rods among these dust particles?

Surely Otsutsuki can't have her clothes ripped off, her hair fall out, and her skin shed every time she fights, right?

She'd be exhausted to death.

Therefore, even though he knew about the mysterious Otsutsuki's abilities, Otsutsuki Tsurugi didn't have many ways to counter them.

The only option is to use the clumsy method of putting a shell around oneself with the "True Scripture and Golden Mirror," while simultaneously becoming more vigilant.

Fortunately, Otsutsuki Tsurugi possessed the True Scripture Mirror; otherwise, she would have had to use Amaterasu to enter her Gundam form.

They used the method of using a cannon to kill a mosquito to deal with the enemy.

'What a disgrace! As an elite warrior, I've been forced to this point by a mere rookie Otsutsuki using taijutsu.'

'It seems that a thousand years of living like this has finally made me complacent.'

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's gaze was icy. With a single step, it was as if a giant bomb had been detonated, causing the earth to tremble violently and large chunks of rock to be thrown up from the ground.

With a tremendous roar, they pursued the fleeing Otsutsuki.

Given his extremely precise control over his power, this shouldn't have happened to him.

The reason for this was that Otsutsuki Isshiki was somewhat angry at this moment.

Click!

Otsutsuki Isshiki's speed was astonishing, catching up with his opponent at a speed far exceeding that of Otsutsuki Mikoto's retreat.

Otsutsuki tried to parry and retaliate, but was struck by a lightning attack that caught her off guard.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the invisible barrier covering the body of Otsutsuki.

boom!

With another powerful blow, the cracks in the True Scripture Mirror rapidly spread and expanded, becoming radial cracks that continued to extend.

This guy's serious.

Even now, I can't react at all.

Outside the arena, Madara Uchiha, who had been watching the battle intently, was filled with shock.

"Ban, who are these two guys!?"

At this moment, Obito Uchiha, whose face was extremely ugly, asked Madara Uchiha, who was watching the battle, a question.

Actually, he had been here for a while, but he had just arrived.

He was stunned by the sight of the two fighting before him.

Even with his current powerful perception from the dual Kamui Mangekyou Sharingan, he couldn't see the specific details of the battle between the two.

Only two fleeting streaks of light could be barely seen.

This made Obito Uchiha realize that if he were to face either of the two on the field...

Unless he enters the Kamui Hollowfication state beforehand, given the speed of these two...

He might be killed instantly before he even has a chance to use his intangibility ability.

This was hard for Obito Uchiha, who had gained confidence after acquiring both Mangekyou Sharingan, greatly increasing his strength.

"I do not know."

When Obito asked him a question, Madara replied indifferently and then fell silent, focusing all his attention on the battlefield.

Even Madara doesn't know!?

Upon hearing this, Obito Uchiha was stunned, and his heart was even more shaken.

Where did these two monsters come from?

When did such a terrifying guy appear in the ninja world?

Could it be related to the ritual performed by Uchiha Sasuke just now?

In an instant, countless questions arose in Obito Uchiha's mind.

Black Zetsu, who was standing next to the two, had not uttered a single word since his appearance, but had been staring intently at the battlefield.

Although his face, as black as mud, made it difficult to discern his state of mind, it was still quite dark.

But only Black Zetsu himself knew that the shock he felt at this moment was far greater than that of the two people beside him.

Otsutsuki!!!

Those two guys are Otsutsuki!!!

Bang bang bang!

Inside the arena, two seemingly blurry, fleeting afterimages intertwined and collided, accompanied by the resounding sounds of fists colliding and glass shattering.

Otsutsuki kept parrying and defending, while trying to counterattack, but the mysterious Otsutsuki who had suffered a sudden small loss at her hands was now clearly getting serious.

Otsutsuki was not given any chance to retaliate, and the continuous attacks kept penetrating her defenses.

It struck the True Essence Mirror covering the body, causing more and more cracks to appear in the transparent defensive barrier!

Three strokes!

If this level of attack continues, Makoto's defenses can withstand at most three more attacks before they shatter completely.

Sensing the cracked, precarious, and seemingly collapsing Shinjukyo Mirror at any moment, Otsutsuki thought to herself.

If it weren't for the fact that Otsutsuki had a double buff at this time, and that Mazu no Kyouka had the effect of reflecting attacks, causing the opponent to have a certain pause period with each attack, then...

The transparent barrier defense released by the True Mirror had long since been shattered.

After those three moves, I had to think of other ways.

Otsutsuki's eyes flickered, and her mind raced.

Just then, another attack from her opponent broke through her defense and was about to strike the True Mirror covering her body again.

A sudden change has occurred!

The protective barrier on Otsutsuki's body, which should have been able to withstand two or three more attacks from the opponent, vanished without a trace in an instant.

not good!

This guy's ability is so powerful that he can even shrink a phantom artifact like the True Essence Mirror!?

Otsutsuki Mikoto's eyes narrowed, her heart trembling. At this moment, she realized that her opponent had been plotting against her all along.

This guy's ability isn't just to shrink objects, but to shrink any non-living thing except himself, whether it's tangible or intangible!

They could have easily reduced the barrier defense of the True Mirror of Truth immediately, but they chose to use it at this crucial moment, catching the opponent completely off guard.

In an instant, Otsutsuki Naru figured out all the characteristics of the opponent's ability, but it was useless even if he figured it out.

Because she had forcibly activated the Child Sun Goddess earlier, she could no longer use her pupil technique to delay it, meaning she couldn't dodge this attack at all.

This is the only way!

With a fierce determination, Otsutsuki Naru activated the bone bud cells within her body, causing sharp white bones to emerge from her chest.

But at this moment, the Corpse Bone Pulse she hastily activated was far too slow.

There wasn't even enough time for the white bone breastplate to form before the opponent's attack hit his chest.

Even if it is generated, it may not necessarily block the opponent's attack.

It can be said that Otsutsuki's current behavior is merely a desperate act born of desperation.

but!

As expected, the mysterious Otsutsuki was surprised when he saw that only a tiny bone tip was emerging from her chest.
