A little girl on the wrong set?
Space trembled, and dark cracks appeared in the low sky.
Uchiha Madara and Kinshiki Otsutsuki, who were engaged in fierce fighting, had obviously noticed the commotion not far above them, but neither of them paid any attention to it.
Regardless of who emerges from the shattered spacetime, they are confident they can defend against any sneak attacks.
Unfortunately...
No one emerged from the gaping hole in the sky; instead, a crimson glow spilled out. As the spatial rift widened, the red light poured out, instantly enveloping the heavens and earth.
Eternal Tenseigan - Red World!
The image freezes, time stands still.
In that brief moment, Tōka was able to make contact with Uchiha Madara's body...
The chakra of Yin and Yang attributes were combined and gathered in Tōka's palm.
Puff!
A dull thud sounded as Tōka's palm pierced through Uchiha Madara's chest, black lines spreading outwards from Tōka's palm.
Black lines, resembling a spiderweb, gradually covered Uchiha Madara's chest.
Yang Release...
Spirit Possession - Awakening!
As the crimson light faded, Tōka channeled the power of Yang Release into Uchiha Madara's body, a technique different from Black Zetsu's "Spirit Possession and Assimilation."
The Spirit Possession and Assimilation technique was used to assimilate Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu, who possessed power comparable to the Sage of Six Paths, and then Otsutsuki Kaguya.
Black Zetsu is Otsutsuki Kaguya's will, which is why he can use assimilation.
Tōka, on the other hand, channeled the power of Yang Release into Uchiha Madara's body, awakening Otsutsuki Kaguya, who was sleeping within the Divine Tree.
The ultimate goal is to revive Kaguya, but the underlying principles are quite different.
"It's you! What... are you doing?!" Uchiha Madara mechanically turned his neck, staring at Tōka with a ferocious expression.
At the location of the heart, it felt as if something evil was about to emerge from the blood...
Uchiha Madara's consciousness was gradually fading. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a figure behind him, but he didn't understand what Tōka was doing.
Having become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, he already possesses the same power as the Sage of Six Paths.
But why... is his body completely unable to move?
"It's just a simple spell, a spell to awaken the demon sleeping within your body." Tōka winked mysteriously, a strange smile playing on his lips.
Uchiha Madara's consciousness grew increasingly blurred, and even the figures in his eyes were gradually swallowed by darkness.
As black as ink, Uchiha Madara with it. A massive amount of chakra surged forth, and Uchiha Madara's body was like Vortex in a storm, frantically devouring the Natural Energy between heaven and earth.
Drum!
Uchiha Madara's waist and abdomen swelled up again and again, his body expanding like a balloon.
"What terrifying chakra! It's still increasing!" Everyone present was Kage-level, so they could see through Uchiha Madara's current condition at a glance.
The Infinite Tsukuyomi absorbed the chakra of the user and fed it all back into Uchiha Madara's body.
Chakra increases infinitely...
Tōka had already sensed that Kaguya's will was gradually awakening, so he quickly pulled his hand away and then swiftly retreated.
Although Tōka kept his eyes on Uchiha Madara, observing his physical changes, he did not relax his vigilance towards Kinshiki Otsutsuki in the slightest.
Really!
Kinshiki Otsutsuki became aware of Uchiha Madara's change because it was because Kaguya's consciousness was about to awaken within the Divine Tree.
His body sank, and a red light suddenly shone behind him.
A Kinshiki Otsutsuki was drawn by Kinshiki Otsutsuki...
Whoosh!
Tōka's figure flashed and appeared directly in front of Kinshiki Otsutsuki. Clang! A piercing metallic clang rang out.
A glimmer of Kakkō vanished in an instant.
Kinshiki Otsutsuki's pupils contracted sharply as he saw that his giant axe had been blocked by a tiny Kunai!
Kinshiki Otsutsuki is skilled in Taijutsu). The red ring behind him can transform into any type of weapon, and can also store a varying number of weapons in fixed forms.
These red weapons are not ordinary weapons, but rather powers derived from Yang Release.
How could anyone not be astonished that an axe capable of easily splitting a mountain could be blocked by a mere ordinary Kunai?
Are you using chakra to encase the Kunai to prevent it from being cut?
Kinshiki Otsutsuki's eyes narrowed, and he unconsciously increased the force in his hand by three points.
"Compared to Momoshiki's abilities, you really don't have anything worth mentioning besides Taijutsu." Tōka's arm Budong, as if it were made of iron, supporting the giant red axe.
Faced with Tōka's disdain, a cold glint flashed in Kinshiki Otsutsuki's eyes.
How dare they underestimate him!
Buzz!
An even larger burst of chakra erupted, forming a powerful shockwave that swept outwards. Several weapons of different shapes shot out from the red ring behind Kinshiki Otsutsuki.
The figure that had blocked the giant red axe grinned, revealing a sinister smile.
Then, to utter astonishment, all the weapons that shot out pierced through Tōka 'Kinshiki Otsutsuki body.
"Space-Time Ninjutsu?" Kinshiki Otsutsuki's reaction was incredibly fast; without even turning around, he swung his giant axe out.
Pity...
The devil is always one step ahead of the saint!
With a soft "poof".
Tōka, who had flashed behind Kinshiki Otsutsuki, was cleaved in two at the waist by the giant red axe! Yet, not a drop of blood splattered from the cut where his upper and lower halves of body were severed!
"Shadow Clone?" Kinshiki Otsutsuki's pupils constricted sharply. He tried to retract his giant axe to block, but it was too late.
That's right!
As Tōka's Original Body vanished instantly, a Shadow Clone Body Flicker Technique behind Kinshiki Otsutsuki, while his Original Body reappeared in its original position half a second later.
Bang!
With a simple palm strike, Tōka directly slapped the Prayer Beads in his palm into the body of Kinshiki Otsutsuki.
Dark cracks spread outwards from Tōka's palm, instantly splitting Kinshiki Otsutsuki's massive body into pieces.
Puff puff puff...
With a clear, muffled thud, the pieces of meat scattered on the ground vanished one by one...
"So it really is just a clone..." Tōka glanced expressionlessly at the empty ground. "I wonder how strong the Original Body of these two are."
Preliminary estimates suggest that the two clones represent only one percent of the combined power of the two Original Body.
At this moment, Tōka's attention was drawn to the rapidly expanding body of Uchiha Madara beside him.
The reason is simple: the sphere, which is twice the height of a human, has stopped growing, and while abundant Natural Energy fills this land, it is no longer being absorbed.
Tōka narrowed his eyes in confusion, "Logically speaking, this isn't the limit yet! Why didn't you continue?"
Buzz!
There wasn't much time for Tōka to think things through carefully.
Because...
That guy is about to appear!
Snowflakes danced in the air, and a cold front surged.
It looked as if a Milky Way was cascading down from the horizon, but upon closer inspection, it was revealed to be a scene created by the Cold Wind blowing through heavy snow mixed with thick fog as it approached from afar.
High above in the vast Main Hall of the Ice Palace, a man with pale skin, Long Hair gray hair, and two rabbit-ear-shaped horns on the back of his head stood there indifferently like a sculpture.
Sudden!
The large man sitting below stirred slightly, then opened his eyes and regained consciousness.
"Your clone was also destroyed?" Momoshiki Otsutsuki noticed the commotion inside the hall and turned to ask expressionlessly.
Kinshiki Otsutsuki nodded without saying a word. There was nothing to say about this. It was already embarrassing enough that his clone had been killed; there was no need to repeat it a second time.
"Have we figured out that guy's identity?" Momoshiki Otsutsuki changed the subject and asked.
The guy he was referring to was naturally Tōka, the one who exuded the aura of Otsutsuki Kaguya.
Kinshiki Otsutsuki shook his head; he wasn't sure about the relationship between Tōka and Kaguya.
He simply said in a muffled voice, "He injected Yang Release into the Rinnegan man's body, fully activating Infinite Tsukuyomi."
"So, that scoundrel has already awakened?" Momoshiki Otsutsuki's eyes One Flash slightly.
"Yes." Kinshiki Otsutsuki remembered that at the last moment before the clone disappeared, his expanding body had stopped.
After the brief conversation, the Ice Palace Hall fell into a deathly silence once again.
Indifferent, cold...
Beyond the desolate Forest lay a ruin razed to the ground.
Two figures, one tall and one short, with strikingly similar features, stood facing each other. A fierce wind howled, ruffling the hems of their clothes.
"How is this possible!" Tōka stared dumbfounded at the little girl who appeared before him, silently shouting in his heart.
At that moment, only one thought flashed through his mind...
My Kaguya Ōtsutsuki can't possibly be this cute!
There was a little girl with white hair and white Byakugan, barely as tall as his thigh. Her chubby face showed a look of complete bewilderment, and her blinking eyes seemed to speak volumes as she tilted her head and looked at him!
Is this adorable creature Kaguya?!
Little sister, you've wandered onto the wrong set!
If it weren't for that familiar feeling stemming from shared blood, Tōka would never have believed that this guy was Otsutsuki Kaguya!
"Mother..."
Tōka found it hard to bring himself to call a tiny kid who barely reached his thigh "Mom," and the words that came out of his mouth ultimately turned into a low murmur in his heart.
Like Tōka, Hashirama Senju and the others stared blankly at the scene before them.
Is Tōka's real goal to turn Madara into a cute little loli? Hashirama Senju's wicked imagination ran wild, his strange gaze constantly shifting between Tōka and Kaguya.
In his mind, the little girl was Uchiha Madara.
Straightforward and outspoken, this was always Hashirama Senju's style. "Madara, why have you become like this?"
"It's kind of cute... but it feels really weird!"
You're the weirdest one, okay? Everyone's too tired to even comment anymore.
Upon hearing Hashirama Senju's voice, Tōka looked at him as if he were an idiot, regardless of whether Uchiha Madara appeared in the form of a little girl.
Judging from the situation just now until now, no matter what, it was him who did the dirty work!
"That... First Hokage..." Minato Namikaze stood beside Hashirama Senju, carefully crafting his analysis.
"In my opinion, that guy isn't Uchiha Madara."
One and a half seconds later...
"Huh?! Isn't that Madara?" Hashirama Senju's slightly thicker nerves than normal for the information to reach his brain.
"Then who is she...?"
Minato Namikaze shook his head and remained silent. When Jiraiya devised his plan to deal with Uchiha Madara, he told them some of the secrets that had happened in the Ninja World over the years.
Upon seeing the white-haired, Byakugan little girl appear, Minato Namikaze, the Third Hokage, Tobirama Senju all had some guesses in their hearts.
Only the oblivious Hashirama Senju would have thought that it was Uchiha Madara appearing in the form of a little girl.
Hashirama Senju was just a little slow to react in this kind of situation; it didn't mean he was really stupid. After being reminded by Minato Namikaze, he raised his hand and pinched his chin, looking as if he had thought of something.
Although no dangerous aura could be sensed from the little girl, her immense life force was unmistakably present.
Tobirama Senju's eyes flickered slightly, concealing the glint of shrewdness that flashed within them.
He glanced at Hashirama Senju Budong, secretly thinking to himself that this immense life force was definitely above his elder brother's Wood Release, perhaps even several times, no, dozens of times!
Now that Tōka has taken care of those two guys, their remaining enemies...
"Big brother, make your move!" Tobirama Senju could finish speaking, his figure had already vanished from the spot.
Minato Namikaze reacted the fastest because he could feel the instant space was torn apart, Flying Thunder God... with a whoosh!
Minato Namikaze and Tobirama Senju entered the arena in Body Flicker Technique, one on the left and one on the right.
Hashirama Senju and the Third Hokage were a beat slower, but they still acted immediately.
Trees burst forth from the earth, brimming with life, and Third Hokage of agile leaps rapidly approached amidst the towering Forest.
The only thing they had in common was that none of the four of them targeted Tōka, but rather the little girl standing in front of Tōka!
The killing intent was too obvious; how could it possibly escape Tōka's perception?
"I'd almost forgotten about you guys."
As the cold words fell, nine Tomoe appeared in his Ice Blue pupils, and a surge of powerful chakra began to churn within Tōka's body...
Buzz!
The red light poured down, but vanished in an instant.
Click!
The crisp sound of shattering glass rang out, and the bodies of the four Hokage, shrouded in red light, shattered like broken mirrors.
To deal with those resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation, one can only use Sealing Technique or break the Impure World Reincarnation to send their souls back to the Pure Land.
Faced with a choice between the two, Tōka chose the seal.
Red World: The Shattered Mirror Sealing Technique!
The red light came and went quickly. When it faded, only Tōka and a cute creature with white hair and Byakugan remained in the arena.
Um... shouldn't I explain something at a time like this?
How should I put it?
Am I your son? This just seems really weird!
Are you my mother?
Pshaw, pshaw, pshaw... aren't they the same thing?
Just as Tōka was furrowing his brow in utter confusion, too embarrassed to say anything, the little girl suddenly moved.
She took short strides and walked straight toward Tōka.
Three steps in two...
The two were only a step apart when a small, delicate hand slowly reached out and grabbed two of Tōka's fingers.
Even with her small hands fully extended, she could only grasp two of Tōka's fingers.
A warm and comforting feeling welled up in my heart.
Sealed memories.
It opened in an instant...
