Black Zetsu: I Wish I Could Strangle My Brothers!

Toneri's support had greatly eased the pressure on Sasuke. It had even saved his life.

But Toneri's unexpected arrival had also made Momoshiki and Kaguya sense a threat they hadn't planned for. Both stopped holding back and began seriously hunting down Sasuke and Toneri.

Toneri activated Tenseigan Chakra Mode and took the initiative, attacking Kaguya.

He knew he wasn't Kaguya's match, but he should still be able to hold her off for a while. If Sasuke, in his awful condition, had to fight Kaguya, he'd probably lose in a single exchange.

Momoshiki, meanwhile, decisively attacked Sasuke.

Sasuke was still weak, but the Tenseigan Truth-Seeking Orbs Toneri had left behind greatly bolstered his defenses. The orbs couldn't be absorbed by the Rinnegan or Karma, and they were enough to block most of Momoshiki's attacks.

That gave Sasuke room to maneuver and let him just barely keep fending off Momoshiki's assault.

But the situation was still grim.

After taking control of Boruto, Momoshiki could even use the ninjutsu Boruto had mastered. His many Rasengan variants came one after another.

Vanishing Rasengan, Wind Release Rasengan, Compression Rasengan, Heaven-Ending Super Tailed Beast Ball Rasengan... and more.

They all came hurtling toward Sasuke in a vast barrage, each one empowered by Takamimusubi and several times stronger than normal!

There were too many, and they hit too hard!

He couldn't block them all.

Sasuke felt as helpless as he had when Naruto had bombarded him with attack after attack. Several times, his half-body Susanoo was blasted apart, and he only barely dodged by relying on his movement and Sharingan.

Of course, the main reason was that Sasuke was completely drained.

A shinobi without Chakra was still helpless, even if he was as powerful as Sasuke.

"Pathetic! It's all pointless!"

"Uchiha Sasuke, you're destined to die here!"
