Chapter 291: Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki 【17】
Chapter 291: Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki 【17】
The Rinne Sharingan could not control the Ten-Tails.
As the power of the Rinnegan fused with the Rinne Sharingan, Feng Ye was temporarily unable to harness the power of the Rinnegan. Nonetheless, it didn't hinder his ability to stop the resurrection of Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki.
For Kaguya to fully resurrect, her consciousness, guided by Black Zetsu's will, needed to revive within the Ten-Tails. And Feng Ye could unleash time regression upon the beast.
Zzzzz!
The portion of Black Zetsu that had infiltrated the Ten-Tails, along with Kaguya's consciousness that was reviving within it, was forcibly dispersed, reverting to its state from a moment ago.
"Feng Ye..."
Black Zetsu glared intently at Feng Ye, but it didn't give up. With difficulty, it controlled its body, imbued with Kaguya's will, and forced itself into the Ten-Tails once more.
The Ten-Tails let out a roar, and its solitary eye gazed upward at Feng Ye, perched atop its head. Then, its ten tails lashed out violently toward Feng Ye.
"Before I'm ready..."
"Be a little more well-behaved!"
Feng Ye lifted his foot and gently stamped it down.
Boom!
A colossal force descended, causing the Ten-Tails to let out a bellow. A huge chunk of its massive body caved in, and it abruptly sank into the ground.
The earth rumbled, and a wave akin to a tidal wave surged in all directions, forcing Minato and the others to brace themselves against it.
Zzzz!
Most of Black Zetsu's body was shaken off and flew into the air, leaving only a small portion clinging to the Ten-Tails' claw like a drowning person refusing to let go of their last straw.
Although Feng Ye couldn't open his eyes and had lost his vision, he could still sense this, so he stamped his foot again.
Gurgle!
Black Zetsu could no longer stick to the Ten-Tails and was completely shaken off, resembling a black slime that disintegrated in mid-air.
Feng Ye didn't actually care about Kaguya's resurrection. With his abilities, even if Kaguya were to resurrect, she would be absolutely restrained by his time powers. After all, Kaguya hadn't just lived for over a thousand years; she had been in a half-dead, sealed state for that entire time.
As long as he touched any part of Kaguya's body, he could use time regression to instantly revert her to her previous half-dead form.
Of course, this ability had limitations. It could only be used within the range of the Time Domain, and he had to either touch Kaguya or infuse his time power into bullets and shoot them into her body.
Just like with Uchiha Madara earlier, if Madara had mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, Feng Ye might not have been able to touch him, and it would have been difficult to defeat the Six Paths Madara in one strike.
Therefore, with the powers of the Rinne Sharingan and Rinnegan temporarily unavailable, Feng Ye didn't want to see Kaguya resurrected, as facing her in this state would be troublesome.
However, just as Feng Ye had shaken Black Zetsu out of the Ten-Tails' body and shattered it, he suddenly paused, furrowing his brow slightly.
He could sense—
Kaguya's will was still reviving within the Ten-Tails!
"Is this the consequence of me destroying the moon? That attack from Black Zetsu had already gathered most of Kaguya's will within the Ten-Tails. The range of my Time Domain isn't sufficient to cover the entire Ten-Tails, so I can't force it out with time regression."
Feng Ye murmured to himself, but he remained calm.
He continued to stand on top of the Ten-Tails' head, and the power of time regression kept infiltrating its body, causing its state to continuously reverse.
At this moment, if one were to view the scene from Feng Ye's perspective, they would see an invisible sphere with a radius of over thirty meters enveloping a significant portion of the Ten-Tails' body. Feng Ye stood at the very edge, treading on the Ten-Tails, with time regression constantly affecting that portion of its body.
Under the influence of Feng Ye's time regression power, Kaguya's spiritual power kept entering and exiting the Ten-Tails' body, repeating this process hundreds of times, yet it still couldn't control the entire beast.
Without control over the complete Ten-Tails, she couldn't manifest herself or restore her original body.
Finally...
Kaguya's spiritual power stopped invading the portion covered by the Time Domain and instead, completed its coalescence and reorganization in the part of the Ten-Tails' body that was outside the domain's range.
Immediately after, in the astonished gazes of Minato Namikaze and the First Raikage, one of the Ten-Tails' tails lashed out towards the air, but it didn't strike at Feng Ye.
On that tail, a shadow squirmed and eventually took form, manifesting into an illusory figure reminiscent of the Shinigami summoned by the Dead Demon Consuming Seal.
White hair drifted in the void.
Between her brows was an illusory Nine-Tomoe Rinne Sharingan, and as her eyes opened, an overwhelming pressure spread out instantly.
She was the progenitor of chakra—Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki! After a thousand years of being sealed, with Feng Ye's destruction of the moon and the revival of the Ten-Tails, coupled with Black Zetsu's relentless efforts, her will finally descended upon this world once more after a millennium!
"So, in the end, you've managed to reconstitute your soul by relying on a portion of the Ten-Tails' body..."
Feng Ye remained with his eyes closed, turning his head towards the direction of Kaguya's appearance, his demeanor calm and composed.
Kaguya looked at Feng Ye and slowly raised her hand.
Chakra gathered in her palm, and from within it, a section of bone emerged—a bone that was gray and decayed, imbued with a heart-palpitating power—the All-Killing Ash Bone!
Even though she could only manipulate a fraction of the Ten-Tail's body at the moment, greatly limiting her strength, she had still regained a portion of her unique power.
"Get...out of my body!!"
Kaguya's voice was cold and commanding as she directed her words at Feng Ye. Then, the All-Killing Ash Bone in her hand shot towards Feng Ye, piercing through the void and entering the range of the Time Domain.
Feng Ye, with a calm expression, simply tilted his head to the side, easily dodging the attack. He even lifted his hand and touched the bone with his finger as it grazed past.
Sizzle!!
The spot he touched began to corrode, and the effect spread rapidly. Even his finger, imbued with the power of the Six Paths and capable of condensing the Seekor Pearl, couldn't withstand the penetration of this power.
"So that's how it is..."
"This is that power."
Feng Ye's expression remained unchanged.
Puchi!
His left arm cleanly snapped in half at the middle, falling to the ground and swiftly turning to dust.
He had always felt that the power of the All-Killing Ash Bone was dissimilar to the power of the Six Paths and was quite bizarre, capable of even destroying the Six Paths power and the Seekor Pearl.
This brief contact confirmed his suspicions.
Kaguya Otsutsuki, as well as other members of the Otsutsuki clan like Momoshiki and Urashiki, all possessed their own time-related abilities. As a 'celestial being' from the same place, Kaguya also had a time-related ability—the All-Killing Ash Bone!
That gray, decayed bone was based on the power of the Six Paths, but within it lay the power of time, capable of making any enemy it touched experience hundreds or even thousands of years of time in an instant! This was why the All-Killing Ash Bone could destroy the power of the Six Paths but couldn't dismantle souls, as the passage of time had no effect on the souls of the deceased.
"It seems that even if I were to bear that power, it would still be quite troublesome."
