"Fear?!" Orochimaru raised an eyebrow and asked in disbelief, "Can Ōtsutsuki feel fear?"
Amado said, "I'm not sure. When Ada and Daemon showed off their 'Shinjutsu,' Ōtsutsuki Isshiki seemed a little surprised. It was as if..."
Orochimaru asked, "As if what?"
Amado chose his words carefully. "As if he admired them, or was jealous of them, or something like that!"
"Admiration... jealousy..."
Orochimaru fell into thought.
Amado continued, "Anyway, after that, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki reclaimed all the materials and data related to that Ōtsutsuki corpse. He even sealed Ada and Daemon away. If he hadn't needed enough fighting power to deal with 'A' this time, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki probably wouldn't have activated the siblings so easily."
"So..." Orochimaru's eyes lit up. "That Ōtsutsuki corpse is the key to everything?"
"Exactly!"
Amado answered without hesitation.
In the Shinobi World today, aside from Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, he was the person who knew the most about that Ōtsutsuki corpse. And for that very reason, he understood better than anyone the terrifying power contained within it!
He even suspected that the corpse's owner had been a "higher-level" Ōtsutsuki than Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.
That was right.
He hadn't used words like "powerful" or "noble" to describe his theory. He'd used "higher-level"!
Because, in his view, even Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's strength was something he could understand.
But the power of the Ōtsutsuki who owned the corpse Ōtsutsuki Isshiki had found was completely beyond his comprehension.
Even just a tiny fragment of the corpse, when transplanted, displayed power worthy of being called a miracle!
Orochimaru, now understanding the significance of the corpse, asked, "Do you know where Ōtsutsuki Isshiki hid it?"
Amado shook his head. "I don't."
Orochimaru frowned slightly.
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was powerful enough to open Space Gates and travel freely between different dimensions. Without enough information, there was no hope
