Chapter 142: Is This All the Power of Otsutsuki?

Chapter 142: Is This All the Power of Otsutsuki?

"Sasuke!"

Boruto Naruto shouted in alarm at the turn of events.

"Ah!"

Sasuke responded, and in an instant, the two appeared before all the Konoha ninjas and the village.

The Nine Tails and the Susanoo stood tall, shielding everyone from the incoming shockwave.

Boom!

The terrifying explosion reverberated in the ears of the Konoha ninjas, almost piercing their eardrums.

They thought the explosions would end there, but little did they know that this was just the beginning.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ferocious rumbling continued, one after another.

The ground shook violently, and the Konoha ninjas had no way of knowing the specifics of the battle. Even the brave ones at the edges of the two towering gods, eager to catch a glimpse of the central fight, were blinded by the endless dust, dirt, rocks, and trees flying in all directions.

The only ones who could witness the battle were Boruto Naruto and Sasuke.

With their gods standing tall, blocking the impact, they saw the Empire Naruto and Empire Sasuke with their hands clasped in front of their chests.

The thousand-meter-tall giants of the two gods unleashed blow after blow, forcing the Otsutsuki Isshiki to dodge and weave like a flea, in a perilous dance of death.

"These versions of ourselves from another world are ridiculously strong..."

Boruto Naruto stared at the battle in disbelief, muttering with his eyes wide open.

"This is even stronger than I imagined... Even if it's just one of them, they might not pale in comparison to the mighty Kaguya Otsutsuki. These two monsters..."

Sasuke, equally astounded, echoed his sentiment.

How could these be humans? Were they sure they weren't Otsutsuki in human skin?

"Damn you, insects!"

The constant battering by the two gods had Otsutsuki Isshiki seething with rage and frustration.

When had he, a noble Otsutsuki, ever suffered such indignity?

Even Kaguya Otsutsuki had defeated him through a sneak attack.

But now, restored to his prime, he was being toyed with by two inferior beings!

This was preposterous!

Otsutsuki Isshiki glared, and with his eyes flashing, the sky above changed.

One giant black cube after another descended, crashing towards the Empire Naruto, Empire Sasuke, and the surroundings.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

These cubes, each with edges measuring over a dozen meters, were massive compared to humans, and their weight was equally staggering.

Under the force of gravity, each cube smashed into the ground, causing the land within a hundred-meter radius to cave in.

They were like meteorites raining down.

However, when these mighty cubes struck the giant wood and Susanoo bodies, they were like dust particles, failing to create even a ripple.

"Is this all the power of the Otsutsuki? Aren't you the ones who boasted about being gods and superior beings? Then use all your might and crush us!" Empire Sasuke shouted arrogantly.

"The power of the Otsutsuki should not be so feeble! Unleash your full strength!"

Empire Naruto joined in the taunt.

"Damn insects!"

Otsutsuki Isshiki roared in anger.

He transformed into a stream of light, constantly weaving and darting about, and finally arrived at the head of the thousand-meter-tall Susanoo. With a kick, he sent it reeling.

Boom!!!

The kick shook the Susanoo, but unlike Boruto Sasuke's Susanoo, which had been kicked to pieces, this one remained intact.

Otsutsuki Isshiki was taken aback for a moment, and in that fleeting moment,

Empire Sasuke's lips curled into a mocking smile:

"Fall!"

At some point, the towering Susanoo had grown another pair of arms, and these new arms crossed to form a mighty fist. This fist plummeted towards Otsutsuki Isshiki, who was still frantically trying to escape his inevitable fall.

Boom!!!

The ground beneath the Susanoo's might crumbled like tofu under the force of its strike.

Otsutsuki Isshiki continued to plummet, piercing layer after layer of the earth.

Simultaneously, the six arms of the towering Susanoo unleashed their weaponry, aiming at the falling Otsutsuki Isshiki.

In sync, the thousand arms of the Empire Naruto also struck, adding their might to the attack.

Boom!!!!

A mushroom cloud soared into the sky, reaching dozens of kilometers in height.

The clouds within a radius of several hundred kilometers were swept away, leaving clear skies.

The onslaught was so fierce that even Boruto Naruto and Sasuke, who had been holding their ground with their gods, could no longer withstand the violent shockwave and were sent flying.

"No!!!!!"

Boruto Naruto's pupils contracted as he let out a horrified roar.

Without him and Sasuke to bear the brunt, the Konoha ninjas and the entire Konoha would surely be reduced to ashes by this terrifying shockwave!

His family, his children, his friends, and everyone he held dear... Were they all doomed?

In this unfamiliar battle? No! Who will save us now?! Boruto and Naruto shouted.

Whoosh!

In that instant, a familiar figure appeared. Surrounded by several pitch-black giant beads, he held a staff in his hand and pointed it gently.

The giant beads unfolded, and all the attacks aimed at the Konoha ninjas and the village itself instantly vanished.

Looking at this figure, Boruto, Naruto, and Sasuke exclaimed in unison:

"Six Paths Sage!"

The Konoha ninjas, who had been enveloped by dust and obscured by trees, could now finally see clearly.

Seeing the form of the Six Paths Sage, everyone's hearts skipped a beat, but upon hearing Boruto, Naruto, and Sasuke's cries, they felt a surge of relief.

"The Six Paths Sage?! The legendary sage has appeared! Thank goodness! We're saved!"

"With the Six Paths Sage here, that despicable Otsutsuki has no chance of turning this around!"

"Hey, where did that Otsutsuki go anyway?"

"Wait... Are we still in the original forest?"

As some of the Konoha ninjas spoke, they finally noticed the changes in their surroundings.

The once endless forest was now nowhere to be seen.

All around them was barren land, stretching as far as the eye could see.

They, along with Konoha Village, remained intact, but the surrounding area looked like a massive sinkhole.

Compared to their original position, at least a thousand meters had been shaved off...

What terrifying aftermath of a battle!

It had actually... irreversibly altered the entire landscape!

Even back when Naruto and Sasuke fought against Uchiha Madara and Otsutsuki Kaguya, the earth had never been harmed to this extent!

This was truly terrifying!

"Everyone, please rest assured. Stand behind me, and no one will harm you. This Otsutsuki shall be dealt with by my partner," echoed the peaceful voice of the Ninja World's Six Paths Sage.

Hearing these words, the Konoha villagers, as well as Boruto, Naruto, and Sasuke, felt inexplicably reassured.

However, the mention of a partner by the Six Paths Sage raised a question.

Who could his partner be?

Could it be the other them from a different world? No... that shouldn't be possible... Even if the other world was as bizarre as could be.

They were not of the same era or caliber as the Six Paths Sage.

Not... the same caliber?

The other them... they were not necessarily inferior to the Six Paths Sage...

Sigh... How terrifying had martial arts become?

That these two could rival the strength of a formidable figure like the Six Paths Sage.

Was this akin to mortals rivaling the gods?

Deep underground, at a depth of several kilometers, Isshiki lay wounded. His body was barely holding together, and he could only rely on his innate immortality to slowly recover.

He breathed heavily, his eyes filled with anger... and a hint of fear:

"Those two... How could they possibly possess such power?! How could they... mere mortals... rival my noble Otsutsuki blood?! This should not be!

It is absolute that mortals should not possess such power! So... why is this happening?!

Wait... Didn't I hear that they were from another world?

Could they be those abominations from the other world that Amado created using the remains of the Otsutsuki God?"

Isshiki thought of the modified humans within the Kara organization, created by Amado using the remains of the Otsutsuki God, but later destroyed due to their excessive power.

Among those modified humans were some who had inherited a portion of the God's power, possessing strength that far surpassed his own when he was known as Urashiki. They even rivaled or surpassed his own might now.

This was something he greatly feared, and it was the reason he had ordered their destruction.

Unbelievable!

The other world had not encountered any unexpected incidents.

Now, individuals from that other world, fused with the power of the God by Amado, had appeared in this world to face him!

What about the original him in this world? Had he been killed? Damn it!

"Damn you, Amado! If not for you, my power should have been invincible! Now, I must return to the base and have Amado release the seal on Kawaki's power. Only then, with our combined might, can we hope to defeat those two bastards.

Ah, and there's Ada and Dimple too.

That fool Boroshiki must have been charmed by Ada's ability, thinking he could keep it a secret from me?

However, the way things have turned out, that idiot Boroshiki's actions have played right into my hands.

With the additional aid of those two, I cannot lose! I still have time... I need not be hasty..."

As Isshiki's thoughts progressed, he gradually calmed down.

Underground, he had no intention of returning to the surface. He merely continued to move through the earth, aiming to reach the Kara organization's base and awaken the most powerful modified human.

The ground.

Otsutsuki Isshiki still hadn't appeared, much to the surprise of Imperial Naruto and Imperial Sasuke.

"This Otsutsuki, he can't have been knocked out that easily, can he?"

"Hmm, I didn't even go all out... "

"I really expected too much of the Otsutsuki up to this point."

The Konoha ninjas surveyed the empty landscape, and they, too, began to wonder if Otsutsuki Isshiki had already been defeated.

Until...

Another figure soared into the sky.

Recognizing this figure, Boruto Naruto couldn not help but exclaim:

"Hinata!"

"Mom... Mom? No, it's Hinata from another world!" Boruto shouted.

"Why is it always someone from another world?"

Kawaki's eyelids twitched as he felt the world around him growing increasingly chaotic.

The other Konoha ninjas were equally baffled.

Until Imperial Hinata's body was enveloped in a radiant white glow, and behind her, spheres of the same color began to float.

This sight stirred long-sealed memories in certain individuals.

"That's! The Rinnegan Chakra Mode!"

"Is it the same power as that Otsutsuki fellow?"

"Why does Hinata from another world possess such power? What is she planning to do?"

"Hey! Hinata, what are you up to?"

Imperial Sasuke inquired as well.

"Otsutsuki Isshiki is trying to escape, and I intend to stop him," replied Imperial Hinata indifferently.

"That guy... he escaped?" Imperial Naruto was taken aback.

"What a coward. So this is the Otsutsuki we've been hearing about? Pathetic. As our Empire's opponent, they don't deserve our sympathy," mocked Imperial Sasuke.

"He's underground now... Could he be escaping like a mole, burrowing his way out?"

Imperial Sasuke found the idea of Isshiki's escape method quite amusing.

"Although it's ridiculous, it's undoubtedly the smartest and most sensible option.

Even with our Qi perception, it's challenging to pinpoint him," said Imperial Naruto.

"But fortunately... we have Hinata and the Rinnegan on our side.

The Byakugan already possesses extremely powerful x-ray vision, and the Rinnegan can only be more superior," Imperial Sasuke shrugged.

"And... that technique is indeed very fitting for the current situation," Imperial Naruto added.

Both Imperial Sasuke and Imperial Naruto turned to Hinata with anticipation.

In the sky above.

Imperial Hinata's right hand was raised high.

The pristine white orbs revolved around her, spinning and accelerating until they formed a continuous chain.

Terrifying chakra and qi were intertwined.

"Is... that the Benevolent Wheel of Life?" Boruto Naruto murmured.

His eyes involuntarily recalled the battle with Otsutsuki, where the opponent had slashed the moon in half with a single strike.

However... while this attack appeared formidable, he doubted its effectiveness against an enemy like Otsutsuki.

Boruto Naruto was skeptical.

A pillar of pristine white light skyrocketed in an instant!

It stretched for countless kilometers.

All the Konoha ninjas watched in awe, and then... Imperial Hinata swung her right hand downward:

"Slash Heaven: Benevolent Wheel of Life!"

BOOM!!!

An astonishing pillar of light descended with a slash.

Space trembled with ripples that extended to the earth below.

The pristine white light pillar penetrated the ground as if it were slicing through tofu, unhindered.

The earth underwent extreme shock under this high-speed slash, and countless kilometers of ground on both sides of the light pillar turned into powder!

Underground.

Otsutsuki Isshiki, who had been scurrying away like a mole, never anticipated another attack.

His body was instantly impaled, and then he was pressed against the ground and dragged along.

By the time he was thrust out from underground, he was already gasping for breath.

The surroundings were no longer the familiar forest and earth but instead a landscape of icy snow and mountains...

He had been struck from the center of the planet all the way to the arctic region...

"Damn inferior insects... How dare you lock onto my underground location... Damn it all! I'm about to die here? I'm so close... so close to success...

I still have... so many unfulfilled ambitions... How can I die here... I'm supposed to become the second God of the Otsutsuki... Why... Kawaki... Kawaki..."

Otsutsuki Isshiki mumbled, and the figure of Kawaki appeared before his eyes.

"Becoming a God? So the Otsutsuki's aspiration isn't much different from that of ordinary humans, is it?"

A voice echoed.

A robust figure stood before Otsutsuki Isshiki.
