From the night of genocide, marching towards the strongest.

But right now, this girl has received the favor of Hamura's ancestor and has awakened the Tenseigan.

What happened this time?

For a moment, Otsutsuki Toneri was lost in confusion, and even the things he had believed in since childhood began to waver.

In the Pure Land of the Underworld.

"Has Hamura made a move? He has no sense of belonging to this world; it's hard to say whether this is a good or bad thing..."

Watching the golden light of the eye power descend upon Otsutsuki, creating a scene of online transmission of power, the Sage of Six Paths sighed softly.

“Brother, you’re too attached to appearances.”

A ball of golden floating flame appeared beside the Sage of Six Paths, from which came the ethereal voice of Hamura Otsutsuki.

"Someone like him will eventually leave this ninja world. He doesn't want to be bound by anything. Precisely because he doesn't want to be bound, there's no need to force him to agree to anything. Just help him when the time is right. Although he doesn't say it on the surface, he already understands in his heart."

“In this respect, brother, you are not as clear-headed as your old friend, the White Snake Immortal. She is counting on this child to help her transform into a dragon in the future.”

"He will not leave the ninja world until he has dealt with all the causes and effects in the ninja world."

"If the ninja world will fall into destruction simply because of his absence after he leaves, then this worthless ninja world will still be destroyed."

“Brother, although we were blessed and prayed for by the world to be born, neither of us is a god and we cannot protect this ninja world forever. The safety of the ninja world ultimately depends on themselves. We cannot always place our hopes on a few people.”

"......"

Upon hearing this, the Sage of Six Paths remained silent for a moment, then sighed deeply: "Hamura, you're right, I was too attached to appearances..."

........

Inside the giant crater of the Sanctuary.

As the Truth-Seeking Ball spun rapidly and the golden chakra sword hurtled towards him, Isshiki Otsutsuki's expression turned extremely ugly.

The Truth-Seeking Balls possess the full power of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, placing them above the "World" and below the "Net." (In the official lore, the Truth-Seeking Balls belong to the "World," while the expanded Truth-Seeking Balls are the "Net.")

His childhood name, Biguna, was also like this; he transcended the "boundary," but still remained within the "net."

Although it can still be shrunk, it cannot shrink and restore itself instantly like other objects.

Of course, the reason for his grim expression wasn't that, but rather that Otsutsuki Hamura had made his move.

Although it's just chakra transfer right now, they might actually take action next.

And his older brother, who has been monitoring the ninja world, might also join in.

At that time, he would surely die!

escape!

The thought flashed through Isshiki Otsutsuki's mind in an instant, and then the Karma seal on his body surged rapidly. A long, curved horn grew from his forehead, encircling his head like a crown.

Wedge Imprint---: State Two!

This advanced form, which only high-ranking warriors can transform into, allows them to unleash even more of Otsutsuki Isshiki's power!

boom!

After entering the second phase of the Karma seal, facing the menacing golden chakra sword, Otsutsuki Isshiki threw a single punch, just that one punch.

After a loud explosion, the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion was actually blasted apart by him, turning into countless golden fragments and the Seeking the Dao Jade that was wrapped within it, which scattered in all directions.

Are you kidding me?!

Is this level of attack something that can be shattered by physical strength alone?

Seeing this, Madara Uchiha, who was pulling out the last few black rods from his body, was dumbfounded.

Obito Uchiha and Black Zetsu, who were standing next to him, were completely stunned.

Is this guy's true power?!

Or is this guy's power even greater than that?

Madara Uchiha's eyes widened, and a huge wave of emotions surged within him.

He was originally supposed to team up with Otsutsuki Yuki to fight against Otsutsuki Isshiki.

Although the two were at a disadvantage and occasionally took a hit or two, they were still able to keep up with each other in a grappling fight.

Just now, for some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of relief during the battle, as if he had finally resolved a knot in his heart that he hadn't been able to untie for many years.

In a moment of distraction, he forgot to use Limbo: Border Jail to evade the enemy's attack and was instantly pierced through the body by the enemy's black rod, rendering him unable to move.

In an instant, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.

Madara Uchiha was initially somewhat unconvinced, feeling that he had lost inexplicably.

But now even Madara Uchiha has to admit that if this guy had used his current power from the beginning...

Even if he cooperated sincerely with Otsutsuki, even if he hadn't been inexplicably dazed just now.

The two of them couldn't last more than a few rounds.

Not to mention Madara Uchiha was startled, Sasuke, who had just arrived here via Yomotsu Hirasaka, was also somewhat frightened upon seeing this scene.

He punched the Truth-Seeking Ball, and it was a Truth-Seeking Ball that rotated and compressed at a high speed like the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.

The young Naruto from the original timeline did achieve this as well, but he was only able to withstand Toneri's Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion with the help of Hamura Otsutsuki's chakra.

Moreover, the two engaged in a tug-of-war and a clash of energies for a considerable period of time.

The mysterious Otsutsuki in front of them shattered the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion in an instant.

"It's the second seal!?"

After the golden light dissipated, Sasuke and Otsutsuki finally saw the mysterious Otsutsuki's state clearly.

Suddenly, it transformed into the second form of the Karma seal, a transformation only high-ranking warriors of the Otsutsuki clan can perform.

Seeing this, Sasuke's heart sank, and he was somewhat unsure whether this mysterious Otsutsuki was the same Otsutsuki from a thousand years ago.

The "vessel" can only exert about 70-80% of its own power at most, and this person can transform into the second form of the wedge seal under the "vessel".

This indicates that this person's strength is among the elite of the elite, even among high-level warriors.

Even if it's not a bloodline limit, it's an existence that comes very close to one.

Such beings no longer need the blessing of the "wedge" seal.

Or rather, they have completely unleashed the power of the "wedge" seal.

Like Kaguya Otsutsuki, her normal state is her strongest state, and her strongest state is her normal state.

There's no need to expend extra energy or chakra to transform and enhance one's power. (In Boruto, Isshiki Otsutsuki's true form is the same as Kaguya's; he doesn't need to transform like Momoshiki.)

How did Kaguya Otsutsuki, who hadn't yet consumed the fruit of the Divine Tree, manage to defeat such an existence?

Could it be that they used the Shared Kill Ash Bones to launch a surprise attack when the opponent was off guard?

Remembering the mysterious Otsutsuki's outburst upon seeing the Otsutsuki's Bone Pulse, Sasuke thought to himself.

In any case, there is clearly still a tough battle ahead.

Sasuke took a deep breath and focused all his attention on the battlefield.

"Ban, for the sake of our plan, we should retreat now!"

Obito Uchiha, who was standing to the side, said in a deep voice to Madara Uchiha, who had just pulled out the last black rod.

Although he wished Madara Uchiha would die sooner rather than later, he definitely didn't want him to die at this time and in this place.

Without Madara Uchiha's presence, the Eye of the Moon Plan would have been virtually impossible to complete.

Not to mention the many powerful and mysterious monsters that have appeared recently.

"Retreat!? Obito, when did I, Madara Uchiha, ever...?"

"Ban! This is not the time for you to act like a child. You were willing to hide in the dark underground for decades to complete your plan. What? Now that you've regained your youth, you can't even see the outcome of a temporary battle?"

Before Madara Uchiha could finish speaking, Obito Uchiha interrupted him with a cold, sarcastic remark.

"If you insist on going to your death, gouge out your Rinnegan and hand it over to me first, then go and die."

"Hmph! It's not your place to lecture me, Obito!"

Madara Uchiha snorted coldly, but did not make any further moves, allowing Obito Uchiha to place his hand on Madara's shoulder.

Inside the venue.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, after the mysterious Otsutsuki entered the second Karma seal and released his even stronger power, he did not attack anyone.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the mysterious Otsutsuki's gaze swept over Sasuke's face, then lingered on Otsutsuki Tsuki for a brief moment.

He then raised his hand, opening a black and red circular portal in the air.

Without hesitation or uttering any harsh words, he stepped straight into the portal and disappeared into the giant crater of the sacred domain.

Is this guy wary of the Sage of Six Paths and Hamura Otsutsuki?

It seems that Otsutsuki Hamura's online transmission of magic to Otsutsuki Naru finally frightened the guy.

Despite these thoughts, Sasuke did not lower his guard in the slightest.

Who knows if this guy actually left, or if he left and then suddenly came back?

Moreover, the mysterious Otsutsuki was afraid that the Sage of Six Paths or Otsutsuki Hamura would attack him.

But Sasuke knew that these two guys were almost certainly not going to take action themselves; at most, they would send some gifts as a token of their appreciation.

"Hey! Uchiha Sasuke, right?"

At that moment, Madara Uchiha's voice rang out. He stared intently at Sasuke and said in a deep voice:

"It seems that your brush with death has brought you good fortune, allowing you to awaken your Rinnegan. Also, is that aura emanating from you the power of the Six Paths?"

Damn!

Why is his power so much stronger than mine, even though we both awakened the Rinnegan?

Even if he has one more Rinnegan than me, it's impossible for the difference to be so great.

Could it be the power of the Six Paths within him? But why don't I have it?

In the original timeline, when Hashirama Senju met Obito, he immediately stated that the two were not on the same level.

Now, Madara Uchiha feels the same way when he sees Sasuke, realizing the vast difference between the two.
