The destroyed Icefield Space
Upon hearing Shazo's words, Kaguya Otsutsuki shuddered, as if she had been targeted by a deadly natural enemy.
Without a second thought, she instinctively circulated her Chakra and activated [Amenominaka] again, transferring herself to another space and leaving Shazo in the Supergravity Space.
Kaguya Otsutsuki's actions stunned Black Zetsu. He looked incredulously at his mother through his sleeve and asked, "Mother—you, how could you—"
Before the Bad Luck boy could even utter the word "escape," Kaguya abruptly rolled up her sleeves, trapping him inside.
This move does have a similar feel to "Sleeve Dimension," but the level is far inferior.
Unlike her eldest and second sons, Kaguya, despite valuing her, truly had no feelings for Black Zetsu, Kaguya third son.
After all, Black Zetsu was a backup plan and tool created before Kaguya Otsutsuki was sealed away, and was never treated as a son from the beginning.
Black Zetsu and Kaguya Otsutsuki spent less than fifteen minutes together after the seal was broken. How much affection could Kaguya possibly have for him?
Yes, Black Zetsu's loyalty and filial piety are beyond question. He fought for over a thousand years to save his mother, making him arguably the most filial son in the Ninja World.
He plotted everywhere, deceiving the Asura and Indra of all ages. Countless members of the Uchiha Clan Senju Clan were fooled by him, but compared to the filial sons of the entire Ninja World, Black Zetsu was a true moral Saint.
But from Kaguya Otsutsuki's perspective, having been sealed away for a full thousand years before being freed and suffering for a thousand years, how could she not harbor any resentment?
Fortunately, Kaguya Otsutsuki is Goddess, not some kind of idiot. She fully understands that Black Zetsu done a good job, but she is slightly cold towards Black Zetsu instead of questioning him with harsh words like "Why didn't you come to save me sooner?"
In fact, Kaguya had already planned it all out. Once she calmed down, she would reshape Black Zetsu's body, granting him power and authority far exceeding that of Hagoromo.
But now, she Black Zetsu, saying that she is not confident of taking down Shazo in one fell swoop, so she needs time to prepare.
Instead of wasting time explaining, it's better to seize the opportunity to fully master your body and readjust to the massive amount of Chakra.
Once we've defeated Shazo, then we can show Black Zetsu what he's made of.
But Kaguya Otsutsuki didn't expect that as soon as she stood firm in the Icefield Space, a dark, circular portal would open up opposite her.
Kaguya was startled, feeling as if the hairs on her entire body stood on end.
She hadn't seen the shape of this portal in thousands of years, but she could still recognize it at a glance because it was a spatial ability unique to Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's Talent lies in combat, but not in spatial abilities. Therefore, he specifically asked the Otsutsuki King for a reward and received this somewhat clumsy but omnipresent spatial technique.
Kaguya Otsutsuki suddenly sneered, shaking her head and muttering to herself, "Honestly, after being sealed away for so long, I've really become a coward."
"Would I be afraid of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki now?"
"Since Ōtsutsuki Isshiki dares to come, he must be out of his mind and looking for death, thinking that I, having just broken free of the seal, will be weaker than him."
"Good, it's good that he's here. We can kill him and eliminate this long-standing threat that has plagued us for thousands of years."
Kaguya Otsutsuki is indeed no longer afraid of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, but he is still her former superior and her most terrifying enemy, so she values him Super Saiyan.
Disregarding the need to stabilize Chakra, he raised his hands high, and gray [All-Killing Ash Bones] emerged from his palms, aiming at the black portal.
When the portal started to fluctuate, Kaguya Otsutsuki, who was ready for battle, immediately launched [All-Killing Ash Bones] and continued to launch it.
Shazo emerged from the portal. In fact, he didn't walk out directly, but only stuck his head out to take a look. What he saw was a dense mass of All-Killing Ash Bones, so he immediately shrank back.
[All-Killing Ash Bones] possesses absolute, rule-based destructive power, but it cannot attack space itself; otherwise, its very existence would be a paradox.
Furthermore, the destructive nature of the [All-Killing Ash Bones] also results in a relatively weak strength. When these gray bones collide with the space gate, they not only fail to penetrate the spacetime membrane, but also shatter into pieces.
Upon seeing that the person who came was Shazo, Kaguya Otsutsuki felt a sense of relief, but then her heart pounded even higher.
The circular black portal split into two, then four, then eight, and finally sixteen.
Not only were there many portals, but they also overlapped and covered each other, allowing Shazo to pass through them safely and step into the Ice Field world.
Kaguya Otsutsuki asked warily, "Did you kill Ōtsutsuki Isshiki?"
Shazo sensed Kaguya Otsutsuki's Chakra fluctuations, and his greed intensified.
He raised his left hand, displaying the diamond-shaped wedge. "Yes, I accidentally hooked him a few days ago using my Rinnegan, so I killed him and obtained this wedge."
Kaguya Otsutsuki became even more wary. "So, are you Shazo, or Ōtsutsuki Isshiki?"
Shazo replied, "For now, I am still Shazo. But if I devour you, I will always be Shazo."
Kaguya's anger erupted. "Mere humans dare to attempt to kill a god? How arrogant!"
Shazo sneered, "I even killed Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, why can't I take you down?"
"In my eyes, your Kekkei Mōra, achieved by consuming Chakra Fruit, is not even as threatening as Madara Uchiha."
"Court death!!"
Kaguya Otsutsuki's hair spread out completely, with each strand breaking off and turning into Senbon raindrops that splashed towards Shazo.
[Rabbit Hair Needle]
With Byakugan's help, these seven-inch-long Senbon, like swimming fish, drew wondrous arcs in the air, aiming at Shazo's acupoints.
Although he hadn't been hit yet, Shazo felt a needle-like sensation in all the acupoints on his body because his Qi was locked in place.
Shazo stepped forward calmly.
[Instant Flash]
He arrived behind Kaguya Otsutsuki step, without wasting any time in the process.
Having successfully escaped the Byakugan's lock, the Rabbit Hair Needle lost their target and could only helplessly pierce the hard, permafrost.
Shazo naturally wouldn't just stand there and take the beating without fighting back. He clapped his hands together and used the most suitable Ninjutsu based on the situation.
[Ice Style: One-Horned White Whale]
[Ice Style: One-Horned White Whale]
[Ice Style: One-Horned White Whale]
Terrifying Ice Style Chakra was injected into the Ice Field, and the flat, permafrost layer churned like a sea. Three giant unicorn whales, each a hundred meters long, leaped high from beneath the surface.
The enormous size of the One-Horned White Whale was so great that even the Tailed Beast could hardly match it, and its oppressive aura was comparable to Madara Uchiha's Perfect Susanoo.
The three enormous unicorn whales are arranged in an equilateral triangle, with Kaguya Otsutsuki at the center of the triangle.
The enormous white whales crashed into the Ice Field, colliding with each other mid-air and shattering into countless massive ice blocks, which then plummeted down as terrifying ice explosions.
The entire Icefield Space trembled under the terrifying impact.
The One-Horned White Whale's destructive power relies on its enormous size and mass; it's a pure form of overwhelming force, a Main Hall method of crushing its prey.
Even Kaguya Otsutsuki could only dodge with Space-Time Ninjutsu when faced with the crushing force of three ice behemoths over a hundred meters tall.
[Yomotsu Hirasaka]
Before being covered by ice, Kaguya entered the grid-like Spatial Passage beside her, her figure disappearing into an unknown space, thus avoiding being crushed by tens of thousands of tons of ice.
The passage opened by Kaguya Otsutsuki can directly enter the void, but within the Amenominaka under her control, she can only travel between six different spaces.
Shazo's Tenseigan did not lose sight of Kaguya. He clearly saw the connection and distortion of Liao Kong, so he unleashed Ice Style Chakra, creating a storm towards the location where Kaguya was about to appear.
Suddenly, he heard a chilling voice. "All the Chakra belongs to me! Shazo, you want to devour me, but I want to devour you too!"
Shazo did not notice the unusual Chakra fluctuations, nor did he panic upon hearing Kaguya's murderous words. He continued to steadily launch an attack on his intended target.
Kaguya Otsutsuki; she was directly hit by an extremely cold storm, which even contained dry ice and hail.
Feeling pain and numbness in her body, Kaguya alarmed and enraged, unleashing a terrifying Chakra that merged into the entire Ice Field world.
[Nature Integration]
Suddenly, the Ice Field world moved. Following the will of Kaguya, the creator, the temperature of the entire world plummeted, and the frigid air brought a bone-chilling cold.
Heavy snowflakes, accompanied by ice pellets, fell and were accelerated by the cold wind to turn into icy blades, slicing into Shazo's body piece by piece.
Kaguya Otsutsuki and Shazo used the same strategy, attacking each other in the Ice Field world with freezing temperatures as their weapons, hoping to be more resistant to freezing than the other.
Shazo's entire body was covered in white ice flowers, but he did not back down and activated his strongest Ice Style.
[Ice Style: Ice Age]
Click-click-ding-
The near-absolute-zero cold air spread wildly, freezing the Ice Field into ice powder. The air condensed into snowflakes and ice shards, which fell softly onto the powdery Ice Field.
In just a few breaths, the Ice Field world transformed into a vacuum, and even the cold winds disappeared.
All the air components were stratified and frozen to the ground, using oxygen as a binder, condensing into new, transparent Iceburg.
But Kaguya Otsutsuki was still able to speak, "Coldness is also my power. Since you want to freeze me, then so be it. I will freeze you into eternal Mystic Ice and slowly devour your Chakra."
Kaguya Otsutsuki's voice echoed throughout the world. Her originally soft voice became exceptionally loud as it was transmitted through the vibrations of the earth, filling the entire frozen space.
[Heavenly Ice Chamber]
Obeying its master's command, the Ice Field world, building upon Shazo's extreme cold, is pushing even more recklessly towards absolute zero.
In this extremely cold world, everything is under Kaguya's control. She believes that with her home-field advantage, she will definitely not lose to Shazo in terms of freezing.
However, she miscalculated.
A chilling aura, so cold it seemed to freeze light, emanated from Shazo, and the surrounding world suddenly seemed to drop a degree.
But this was a world of difference. A cold, desolate light appeared between Shazo's hands, a spacetime Oblivion phenomenon caused by the complete termination of the movement of matter.
[Ice Style: Absolute Zero Light]
A cold, eerie blue light spread out, turning everything in its path to dust, even the frozen Iceburg.
This is absolute destruction resulting from extreme low temperatures.
In fact, Shazo could not reach absolute zero on his own.
His most powerful low-temperature method is based on the collision of matter with [Demon-Reversing Collision], which completely cancels out the movement of the other matter during the collision, achieving the maximum low temperature.
However, matter is too reactive at the microscopic level, making precise collisions extremely difficult; it falls into the category of something that is conceived but not achievable.
But just now, thanks to the combined efforts of Shazo and Kaguya Otsutsuki in cooling down the Ice Field world, the temperature dropped to 1K, and the movement of matter at the microscopic level nearly stopped, giving Shazo the possibility to continue his operation.
Thus, the cold, silent light of absolute zero appeared.
Kaguya Otsutsuki was a woman of insight; the moment she saw the cold, desolate light, she activated [Yomotsu Hirasaka] again and left the Ice Field world.
Without further hesitation, Shazo opened the black portal and followed in Kaguya Otsutsuki's footsteps.
The Ice Field world has become Hell of absolute zero, and for the next ten years, or even longer, it will remain a forbidden zone that no one can set foot in.
Even Shazo and Kaguya Otsutsuki couldn't do it.
Stepping out of the spatial portal, Shazo immediately felt the familiar gravitational pressure; they had returned to Supergravity Space!
However, compared to when they left, the gravity here had increased by at least ten times, reaching the level of 50 times the gravity of the Ninja World. Shazo even saw that Kaguya Otsutsuki was standing obediently on the ground this time, instead of floating in the air like a show-off.
Kaguya Otsutsuki adjusted the Supergravity Space to her limit, focusing intently on Shazo, ready to activate [Yomotsu Hirasaka] at any moment, appear behind Shazo, pounce on him to the ground, and then slowly drain his Chakra.
But Kaguya was surprised to find that Shazo stood up while laughing, seemingly experiencing a gravity environment 50 times stronger than hers.
"That's impossible!"
Kaguya Otsutsuki blurted out, her small mouth so wide open that her little tongue could even be seen.
Shazo Zuo laughed heartily, then suddenly stomped his feet, creating a huge crater in the ground, and charged straight at Kaguya.
[Instant Flash]
In a high-gravity environment, the most suitable fighting style is Taijutsu, specifically Saiyan physical combat Taijutsu.
Shazo approached Kaguya, crouched slightly, then pushed off the ground with one foot and raised the other high, kicking Kaguya directly in the chin, sending the beautiful and aloof woman flying high into the air.
Shazo activated [Instant Flash] again, moving at high speed behind Kaguya. His muscles tensed, and he gathered power in his knee, slamming it into Kaguya's lower back, sending her crashing straight to the ground from the air.
Boom-!
This was an environment with 50 times the gravity. The fall even caused Kaguya Otsutsuki to briefly lose consciousness, making her realize that she couldn't stay in Supergravity Space!
