Naruto: Sasuke Uchiha Returns from Soul Society

"Damn it..."

Kaguya gritted her teeth, a ruthless glint flashing in her eyes.

She attempted to forcefully extract chakra from the Origin Sphere again, hoping to use the immense energy to flush out the foreign matter from her body.

Still want to struggle?

Sasuke snorted and raised his left hand, bringing his index and middle fingers together.

"The sixty-first of the bondage paths, the six-staff light prison."

Six condensed light fragments appeared out of thin air, instantly piercing through Kaguya's waist, abdomen, and limbs, pinning her firmly to the void.

Immediately afterwards, several more strands of light wrapped around her, completely binding her hands and feet.

"The sixty-third way of binding: the lock and the bind."

This time, Kaguya Otsutsuki was completely unable to move.

With her limbs sealed and destroyed, she could no longer muster any extra strength to resist, nor could she concentrate on clearing the rampant black flames from her body.

She could only hover in mid-air like a lamb to the slaughter.

"call......"

Seeing Kaguya finally quiet down, Yoruichi let out a long sigh of relief, but her brows remained furrowed.

"Sasuke," she turned to look at him and asked, "Are you planning to seal this woman away?"

Sasuke looked at the figure bound by the light prison and shook his head.

“That would be pointless.” His voice was calm. “If I only wanted to seal her, I could have used the power of the Six Paths Yin and Yang to activate the Planetary Devastation Star to seal her again in the previous battle.”

"That's how the Sage of Six Paths sealed her away back then. While it was a safe approach, it didn't address the root of the problem."

"The seal is only temporary. As long as the Divine Tree and the chakra remain, she will awaken again one day."

"Furthermore..." Sasuke paused, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, "Such a powerful being, just like that, thrown into a rock and sealed away like trash, don't you think it's a waste?"

Yoruichi was taken aback by what she heard, then seemed to realize something and showed a thoughtful expression.

"pity?"

"Little Sasuke, you wouldn't be thinking of..." Yoru paused, then asked tentatively, "...absorbing this woman's power again, would you?"

Just like when he absorbed the Ten-Tails and became a Jinchūriki?

"Why not?" Sasuke countered.

He looked at Kaguya intently.

As the progenitor of chakra, this woman had an incredibly high level of control over chakra.

Sasuke had a deep understanding of this from the battle just now. In this world, any ninjutsu is like a child's toy in front of her, and can be easily nullified or even backfired.

If I could obtain this power, this absolute control over chakra...

That would be an irreplaceable boost to his power.

"I have no objection."

Yoruichi yawned, looking nonchalant. "It would be best if you could devour her, anyway, this old woman is just a menace if she's left alive."

"but......"

She then changed the subject and raised the most crucial question.

"How do you intend to absorb this woman's power?"

"She is not some ordinary tailed beast or soul; she is the source of chakra, an immortal monster."

"Your method of directly devouring her probably wouldn't work for someone of her level, would it?"

Sasuke did not answer immediately. He slowly raised his right hand, palm facing up.

A pure spiritual pressure gathered in his palm.

Immediately afterwards, countless chakra surged wildly toward his palm.

In the blink of an eye, a gleaming, knife-like object materialized in his hand.

"In that world, Quincy possess a high-level ability called 'Saint Servant'."

Sasuke looked at the light blade in his hand and slowly explained.

"It can instantly decompose life forms composed of spiritual particles into their most primitive spiritual particle state, and at the same time forcibly gather these spiritual particles into the user's body and completely absorb them."

"In this way, Quincy can not only restore their own power, but also turn the opponent's power into their own spiritual pressure."

"I understand what you mean."

Yoru nodded, looking thoughtfully at the blade of light. "You intend to use this technique to decompose and absorb Kaguya?"

"The idea is good."

"But Sasuke, haven't you forgotten something?"

Yoruichi stretched out her claw and pointed at Kaguya in the distance.

“This woman has absolutely no spiritual energy.”

"She is a collection of chakra, which is completely different from our kind of spirit body made of spirit particles."

"Is it really effective to use techniques that target spirit particles to deal with chakra?"

Sasuke smiled slightly, the light blade in his hand trembling slightly.

"The principles of techniques are always the same."

"Whether it's spirit particles or chakra, ultimately, they are both forms of energy."

"Since Quincy can disintegrate spirits by manipulating spirit particles..."

Sasuke's eyes sharpened.

"Then I only need to make a slight modification and use the same logic to manipulate the flow of chakra, and I can naturally decompose this body made of chakra."

"This woman's body, although it appears to be a physical entity with flesh and blood, is in essence the Ten-Tails, which is a solidified product of a massive amount of chakra."

"So theoretically..."

Sasuke gripped the light blade tightly, and his aura began to rise.

"As long as my current strength is greater than hers and I can suppress her resistance, then I can do it."

Yoruichi listened, remained silent for a moment, and then nodded.

"It sounds like it's feasible."

"but......"

Her gaze turned serious, and she asked one last question, "And what about this woman's soul?"

"The body can be decomposed, and chakra can be absorbed, but her soul should be a truly immortal being."

Yoruichi looked at Sasuke, her voice low.

"If, during the absorption process, her soul attempts to possess your body..."

"Then, you might be the one who turns into a monster."

Sasuke paused slightly upon hearing this.

"Souls? You should know that we, as the Grim Reapers, are the least concerned about such things. I have my own methods."

After he finished speaking, the spiritual light blade in his hand shone brightly, and his figure flickered, instantly appearing above Kaguya.

Without any unnecessary movements, the light blade aimed directly at Kaguya's bound chest and stabbed down.

"Sacred Clerk - Revised!"

"Aaaaaahh ...

Kaguya let out a shrill scream.

Immediately afterwards, Kaguya's originally solid body transformed into clumps of pure white, snow-white chakra fluff.

The fluffy substance surged toward Sasuke's body, flowing down his arm and continuously into his body.

Sasuke's body trembled slightly as he received the influx of chakra.

..........

Sasuke's inner world.

A phantom figure slowly coalesced in this space.

It's Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Her soul form appeared somewhat transparent, with long, disheveled hair.

"here it is......"

Kaguya looked around, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.

"The spiritual world?"

She raised her head, looked at the blood moon, and spoke mockingly.

"Foolish brat, do you think you can kill me by destroying my body?"

"They actually dared to devour the power of the gods."

Kaguya spread her arms wide, her long hair moving without wind, and an immense pressure raged through the space.

"As long as my chakra remains, I am immortal!"

"Not only did you fail to kill me, you gave me a golden opportunity."

"Once I devour your consciousness here, your body and your power will all be mine!"

"is it?"

Sasuke's calm voice rang out behind Kaguya.

Kaguya suddenly turned around.

Sasuke stood with his hands behind his back, staring at him indifferently.
