With Korde's agreement,
Ōtsutsuki Ryushiki bent down, placing his large hand on Korde's body. Green light blossomed in an instant.
Korde's withered body, which looked as though he might die at any moment, was instantly filled with vitality!
In just a few breaths,
beneath Korde's tattered clothes, the flesh buds wriggled across his ruined body, restoring it to normal.

"Don't worry. I will help you kill Uchiha Akira."
Ōtsutsuki Ryushiki's gaze was gentle, and he remained as refined as jade.
He did not seem like an Ōtsutsuki at all. Instead, he seemed more like an elegant gentleman.

"I only want Uchiha Akira's corpse."
"The condition is that from this day onward, you become my subordinate. What do you say?"
His expression was sincere, without the slightest concealment.
Korde was moved.
He wanted to kill Uchiha Akira both to avenge Lord Isshiki and to
