As figures flashed into view, the Senju Clan had arrived as well.
The Senju Clan possessed formidable vitality and vast Chakra reserves. A small number of their members could even awaken Wood Release.
They had always been sworn enemies of the Uchiha Clan.
The two sides had fought for years and had always been evenly matched, but after the Uchiha gained Uchiha Hikari, the Senju Clan had suffered several losses.
So now, they were doing everything they could to kill Uchiha Hikari.
With no one stopping him, Boruto quickly reached Uchiha Hikari's side.
Seeing the clan attire on Uchiha Hikari's back already soaked through with blood, Boruto's eyes filled with heartache.
"Don't use that. You'll be consumed."
Clearly, Hikari was not entirely ignorant about Karma. Boruto hesitated.
"I'll hold them off in a moment. You leave first."
Boruto spoke softly to Hikari.
Hikari pressed her lips together and stubbornly shook her head.
"I won't leave you. If we can't escape, then I want to die with you too."
"Promise me you won't let that thing corrupt you."
"I still want you to be the last person by my side."
Seeing the stubborn look in Hikari's eyes, Boruto's heart softened, and he withdrew from his Karma state.
Momoshiki inside him sneered. He felt that Boruto was simply too stupid.
At a time like this, he was actually listening to a woman.
As expected of a lower life-form, always bound by emotion.
Still, Momoshiki patiently waited. He was waiting for the moment Boruto lost consciousness so he could seize Boruto's body.
Outside, the Sarutobi Clan and the Senju Clan had already joined forces.
The Senju Clan had brought thirty people. Together with the remaining twenty-three Sarutobi, they now held an overwhelming advantage over the Uchiha.
"Lord Hisanori, it's Senju Shinyo!"
