Instant Kill

He knew that now was the time for him to act. Now was the time for Uchiha Yue to die!

He would use ultimate power beyond the imagination of this world's natives to blast Uchiha Yue to death completely!

He would seize those eyes, already equivalent to a miniature Divine Tree fruit, and devour them!!!

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki raised his head. Because of this domain's energy-absorbing properties, he could not sense where Uchiha Yue was. But it did not matter. If Uchiha Yue's Dead Silence Domain had expanded to cover half the planet, he might have needed to figure out how to escape.

But it only covered such a small area now, so he did not take it seriously. Like an adult beating an infant, he would viciously beat Uchiha Yue to death before he had fully grown!

Boom!

The next moment, a terrifying aura erupted from Jigen's body. The Karma within him began to release, and an immensely powerful, terrifying force that surpassed the limits of this world's natives surged forth from his body.

Whoosh!

The next moment, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki took flight. After releasing sixty percent of his power, he was able to sense Uchiha Yue's location.

"Uchiha Yue, your life is over. Die!"

Like a meteor, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki blasted toward Uchiha Yue. He intended to end this quickly. He was confident that he could finish the battle within seconds and return the world to its former peace.

To be honest, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki had not wanted to act. To him, no matter what changes occurred in the Ninja World, even if the world were destroyed under normal circumstances, he might not intervene, because that could expose his existence.

After all, that bitch Kaguya Ōtsutsuki was not dead. She was merely sealed away.

But that was under normal circumstances. The current situation was clearly anything but normal. In his judgment, the lowly creatures of the Ninja World had no chance of dealing with a monster like Uchiha Yue, who had awakened the Divine Tree's innate abilities.

The moment he awakened those Mangekyō Sharingan, Uchiha Yue could no longer be called human. He should be called a god. The only thing Ōtsutsuki Isshiki could not determine was whether the ability Uchiha Yue had awakened possessed growth potential. This did not mean the kind of growth that allowed the Dead Silence Domain to expand until it covered the entire planet.

It meant true growth potential—the ability to absorb energy and strengthen the essence of his life. If it was the latter, then the value of Uchiha Yue's eyes would directly surpass the origin of the bloodline within him. Even if it cost him half his life, he would kill Uchiha Yue and make those eyes his own power.

However, whether it possessed true growth potential or not, Uchiha Yue was doomed to die now. In Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's eyes, someone who had only grown for such a short time could not possibly be his opponent. If Uchiha Yue's growing power had not been capable of killing him, he would not even have wanted to make a move.

Within the Dead Silence Domain.

Uchiha Yue floated quietly at the center of the domain, sleeping with his eyes closed. Suddenly, he snapped his eyes open, his scarlet gaze looking indifferently toward a certain place.

Boom!

The supreme colossal god floating in the sky suddenly raised its hand. A violent explosion erupted from its palm, and Susanoo's arm shattered like tofu. A white figure, like a bolt of white lightning and carrying an unstoppable force, broke through the smoke and slammed into Susanoo's chest.

"Ora! Ora! Ora!!!! Uchiha Yue, die!"

In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of punches fell, smashing through the giant god's chest and exposing Uchiha Yue's body beneath Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's fists.

A skyful of fist shadows blasted toward Uchiha Yue. Just as they were about to land on him and shatter his body—

Uchiha Yue's hands became afterimages as he frantically exchanged blows with Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.

In an instant, Uchiha Yue's hands were smashed into pulp, and his body was blown apart outright. He was killed on the spot.

Although every strike from Ōtsutsuki Isshiki had some of its kinetic energy and Chakra absorbed by Uchiha Yue, it was useless. Even the remaining force, stacked across tens of thousands of punches, directly took Uchiha Yue's life.

In terms of sheer strength, the current Uchiha Yue was no match for Ōtsutsuki Isshiki at all. However, it was not that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was too strong, but that Uchiha Yue had not had enough time to grow. Only a little over ten days had passed since the Night of the Uchiha Clan Massacre—not even a full month.

Moreover, although Uchiha Yue's domain covered an enormous area, part of it was actually hollow. The reason the Dead Silence Domain was so vast was the divine artifact known as the Energy Ring. At the cost of being unable to move freely, he had greatly increased his energy absorption rate.

Very strong!

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki lifted Uchiha Yue's head, dug out those eyes, then crushed his head directly. Very strong, he assessed inwardly. Although he had killed Uchiha Yue with ease, there had been a price. After entering the Dead Silence Domain, he had released seventy percent of his power.

That level of power had long surpassed the limits of every native ninja in the entire Ninja World. If he could not utterly crush and kill a Uchiha Yue who had been unable even to refine Chakra not long ago and had only grown for a little over ten days, then he did not deserve to be called Ōtsutsuki Isshiki. He might as well find a rope and hang himself.

If any other ninja from the Ninja World had faced him just now, they would probably have been reduced to dust in a single instant.

Unlike Uchiha Yue, this guy had actually managed to react and exchange blows with him. Even the feeling of his fists landing on Uchiha Yue's body had been very strange. If other ninjas felt like tofu when struck, shattering at the slightest touch, then Uchiha Yue had felt like lightweight wooden boards. If his own power had not been strong enough, it truly would not have been so easy to kill Uchiha Yue.

"Sure enough, I made the right choice. If I had waited a while longer, until Uchiha Yue had fully grown, then even if I released all my power and fought him with the resolve to die, the one who lost would only be me... Fortunately..."

A trace of relief flashed across Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's face. Fortunately, he had been decisive enough, he...
