Naruto: Starting with the Two Kamui

It wasn't recklessness; this was the source of Yu's confidence to approach Xin Shi alone!

The face of hell has four aspects: joy, anger, sorrow, and resentment. However, as Yu becomes numb to this job, a fifth aspect, 'nothingness,' emerges, which is a face devoid of joy, sorrow, grief, and resentment, completely devoid of any emotional color.

At this moment, his face showed the appearance of nothingness.

With all his loved ones gone, he can finally face his true self, the self that had long since become numb!

Having made the necessary preparations, Yu stepped forward.

Light flashed... and the scene before my eyes changed.

This is still the Kingdom of Jianzhou, but there is no wind or snow, and a moon hangs in the sky, along with a small artificial sun.

Under the moonlight, a magnificent white palace floats high in the sky.

"As expected, the space has been tampered with; it must be the power of the Tenseigan."

“That moon is the real moon. This Jianzhou Kingdom originally had ten moons, nine of which were outside and one inside.”

"And that sun, it's an artificial sun created by the power of the Reincarnation Eye World."

"Hmm... As for that castle, it must be where the Heart Array is located."

call out!

The air currents swirled beneath his feet, and Yu's body rose into the air, approaching the castle. He was extra careful to prevent any ambushes.

Throughout their journey, Yu kept pondering one question: what exactly was the way Tsukuyomi and Kotoamatsukami's shikigami manifested? Did they require direct eye contact to trap someone in an illusion? Or was it...?

call out!

Suddenly, the artificial sun in the sky disappeared, as did the Queen's castle. The clouds swirled, and the background was tinged with dark red. The red moon shimmered in the clouds.

This scene was all too familiar to Yu!

This is... Tsukuyomi!

Yu's pupils constricted sharply: "This... how is this possible! She didn't even show her face, how could she have trapped me in an illusion!"

call out!

Just then, a dark figure appeared, seemingly detached from the actual space, above Yu. Although her true face was obscured, her silhouette suggested she was a female Otsutsuki!

"Heart Style!?" Yu naturally guessed the true form of the shadowy figure.

The shadowy figure's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached Yu's mind: "Uchiha Yu, you must have many questions lingering in your heart. As your servant who defeated me and walked step by step to get here, I can tell you everything."

"Whether it's Tsukuyomi or Kotoamatsukami, once the shikigami is awakened, there's no need for direct eye contact. With the help of the Tenseigan's mental vision power, it will take effect as long as the target enters the Tenseigan's field of vision!"

Yu pondered Xinshi's words, puzzled: This is understandable, but why do I still fall into Tsukuyomi even in Netherworld Sage Mode...?

The shadowy figure explained, "In your current state, Kotoamatsukami's will cannot take effect directly, which is why I used Tsukuyomi on you first."

"The Tsukuyomi of the awakened shikigami is both an illusion and reality. Your body, soul, chakra, and everything else will enter the real world of Tsukuyomi!"

"Because it is real, it does not fall under the categories of negative states or mental abnormalities. Therefore, the immunity effect of your current mode is naturally ineffective. Now, do you understand?"

This reality struck me like a bolt from the blue!

The shock in Yu's heart was beyond words!

Izanagi, which can only blur the line between illusion and reality, is already powerful enough.

But Tsukuyomi, who awakened the shikigami... can actually use illusions to create reality?

The shadowy figure said, "Uchiha Yu, you should be glad that you didn't activate Izanagi before entering my domain. If you had activated Izanagi beforehand, the two realities would have clashed, and you would have fallen into an endless cycle of reincarnation until you lost yourself..."

This effect... is clearly the Sharingan's 'Izanami' activated at the cost of blindness!

Yu questioned the shadowy figure, "What do you want to do by trapping me in Tsukuyomi?!"

The shadowy figure said, "I will turn you into... my prisoner. You are more malleable than a soul, and obtaining you will be enough to make up for everything I have lost so far!"

Swish!

The face of hell transforms from nothingness into an expression of 'anger': "Ha, then you'll probably lose even more!"

The shadowy figure said meaningfully, "Your Rinnegan also houses 'Tsukuyomi,' which you should be very familiar with. In the illusory world of Tsukuyomi, a practitioner can do the same thing in the real world of Tsukuyomi. The difference is that the former is ultimately a false sensory experience, while the latter will be a genuine experience!"

"Everything in the Tsukuyomi world—time, space, cause and effect—is manipulated by me!"

"You will spend 'one hundred' years of real time here. When your will collapses, my Kotoamatsukami will be activated immediately!"

Yu Leng said, "Will collapse... Do you know how much I've experienced and endured so far! You say Tsukuyomi can create reality, then create a Ten-Tails for me to see, create a Divine Tree fruit for me to see, create an Otsutsuki Shireki for me to see!!"

"..." Faced with Yu's incisive question, the shadowy figure fell silent, a rare occurrence.

Yu retorted sharply, "What, you have nothing to say, or you just can't create it? Aren't you omnipotent? Do you really think you're the creator?"

The shadowy figure said coldly, "I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you. A hundred years have passed, and old age will accompany you. There is no food or water here, and your strength will continue to drain away with hunger and aging. Even if your will doesn't break, you can't resist the grinding wheel of time. When the time is right, I will use the power of the other gods to make you my eternal prisoner! Enjoy yourself, there's plenty of time!"

call out!

The shadowy figure vanished... but then reappeared: "By the way, let me tell you, this Tsukuyomi world is an eleven-dimensional space in terms of its level of existence, on the same level as Takamagahara, second only to the Primordial God Realm. You cannot escape any of your spatial abilities. If you don't believe me, you can try!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the shadowy figure vanished completely.

Yu was left to linger in this desolate world of Tsukuyomi for a hundred years!

Chapter 848 Reincarnation, the Heart's Unyielding Scale!

Xin Shi made it clear beforehand that this real Tsukuyomi world is an eleven-dimensional space, just like Takamagahara, so no amount of spatial manipulation by Yu can escape it.

But Yu decided to give it a try even though he was in dire straits!

He tried time and again to open Yomotsu Hirasaka using familiar spatial coordinates, but those coordinates that had always worked before were no longer valid.

Because of different dimensions, common sense also doesn't apply.

Yes, the real Takamagahara is the same.

It is impossible to enter or exit through any spatial means; the only passage is the Tongtian River, which crosses dimensions.

The reason why the Otsutsuki, who used to be active outside, could not escape back to Takamagahara even when facing life-or-death crises was because of this.

The Yomi Hirasaka method didn't work, and Yu tried to suck himself into the Kamui dimension... but that also failed.

After pondering for a long time, Yu came to the conclusion: "Like the Twin Moon Space, because of the different flow of time, Shenwei cannot directly reach it."

In the Tsukuyomi world where Yu is located, the flow of time is entirely controlled by mental states; one second outside may be a year here.

However, the Kamui space-time still flows at a normal rate. The difference in flow rate between the two spaces is hundreds of thousands of times, or even more, than that between the Twin Moon Space and the present world.

What does that mean? Even if Yu were ten times stronger right now, he might still not be able to overcome this time barrier!

This is equivalent to... Kamui being completely ineffective in this Tsukuyomi world!

Yu felt both helpless and fortunate.

At least, people in different times and spaces don't have to endure a hundred years of torment like I did!

Having failed to escape using any means, Yu no longer wanted to waste his chakra.

He sat cross-legged on the desolate open ground under the moonlight, closing his eyes to rest and avoid depleting his chakra.

But without food and water, hunger is a major predicament that must be faced!

The Kamui Space-Time Dimension cannot be opened, and the food stored inside cannot be retrieved.

During this period, the heart constantly changes the climate.

Hail, torrential rain, sandstorms, lightning, floods, lava... and so on.

When Yu was practicing physical skills, he experienced these hardships, but they were not serious.

Having gone a hundred days without food or water, Yu sat in the freezing cold of minus one hundred degrees Celsius, enduring the baptism of lightning and sandstorms.

It was at this time that Yu began to decipher the secrets of the 'Tsukuyomi Shikigami'.

"Precisely because this place is real, it is impossible to create illusions at will, like in the illusory world of Tsukuyomi."

“In the past, in the ‘illusory’ Tsukuyomi world, I could even create the Ten-Tails, the Divine Tree, and… the Otsutsuki Shirei-no-King that I imagined.”

"The illusory Tsukuyomi of a shikigami can create these things, but the true Tsukuyomi of an awakened shikigami cannot. Isn't that putting the cart before the horse? This doesn't make sense from a common sense perspective."

"So, it's not that we can't manufacture it, but rather... the barrier to manufacturing is too high!"

"Those things that cannot be created... are the limitations of the caster's power and eye ability!"

"Yes, Otsutsuki Shinshiki cannot create the Ten-Tails, the Divine Tree, or the Otsutsuki Daine-o in Tsukuyomi... It's not that Tsukuyomi can't create them, but rather that Shinshiki's current power is insufficient to make them a reality!"

"If the caster's power is strong enough, they can create a real Ten-Tails, a real Divine Tree, and even... a real Otsutsuki Shirei in this real Tsukuyomi world!"

Having deciphered this, Yu's cracked lips curled up slightly: "Is this the true Tsukuyomi... a dojutsu with almost no upper limit?"

Everything is terrifying because it is unknown!

After figuring out the mysteries of the Mind-Style Ability and its power limits, Yu's mindset actually improved considerably.

That's how about a year went by.

Yu has lost a lot of weight.

Seeing that natural disasters could no longer harm Yu, Xinshi gave Yu an unexpected surprise.

On this day, Otsutsuki Tamashii emerged from the sandstorm.

It was the soul form seen at first, not the soul form that later transformed into the Great God of the Ninja Kingdom.

The Soul-like being greeted, "You didn't expect this, did you, that we would meet again here?"

Yu opened her eyes: "Oh? Judging from the power of this soul-type technique, it seems to be genuine, at least in this world. Finally, something worth seeing..."

Soul Style said indifferently, "If you die here, you are truly dead."

Yu Leng said, "Aren't you the same? If I kill you, and you recreate the mental formula, it'll be another whole ordeal..."

Although separated by dimensions, the battle of magic has already begun!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the real world of Tsukuyomi, Yu begins a fierce battle with Soul!

Yu cannot and dares not deactivate the Netherworld Immortal Mode... because if he does, the protection will disappear, and Xin Shi will immediately use the Heavenly Mandate to manipulate him into a puppet.

"Are you trying to deplete the power of my Netherworld Immortal Technique? Because there is no Netherworld power in this Tsukuyomi world, the power lost cannot be replenished. Every bit lost is a bit less..."
