Otsutsuki Urashiki

Otsutsuki Yuhao's feet rested upon what seemed to be invisible stairs, his body hovering weightlessly in mid-air.

The moment their gazes met and Boruto caught sight of Otsutsuki Yuhao, his reaction was particularly intense.

He bolted upright, his body recoiling involuntarily as if pulled by an unseen force, his face etched with incredulous shock.

"A... another Otsutsuki."

Boruto whispered, his voice heavy with bitterness and unease.

Beside him, Second Pillar remained on high alert, his brows furrowed and his eyes as sharp as a hawk's, locked onto Otsutsuki Yuhao without a hint of relaxation.

The entire scene grew abnormally tense due to Otsutsuki Yuhao's appearance, as if a storm were about to break.

Looking at Otsutsuki Yuhao, who wore a white robe, long silver-white hair, and short horns, one could see six black magatama patterns on his chest and a red swirl emblem on his back, beneath which sat a grid of nine magatama arranged in three rows of three.

This style of dress was very similar to that of the Otsutsuki clan, and the fact that Otsutsuki Yuhao possessed purple six-tomoe Rinnegan only further convinced Second Pillar that he was indeed an Otsutsuki.

Otsutsuki Yuhao's brows knit together, revealing a flicker of irritation.

"I am asking you a question."

"Have you both gone mute?"

An invisible shockwave erupted instantly, centered on Otsutsuki Yuhao.

Boruto and Second Pillar were sent flying back in an instant.

Following this, Yuhao used the Flying Thunder God to appear behind Second Pillar, slamming a palm down upon him.

A terrifying force instantly drove Second Pillar into the ground, smashing a ten-meter-wide crater into the earth.

"Little one, if you don't speak up, you'll end up just like that other Otsutsuki!"

Otsutsuki Yuhao teleported and appeared directly in front of Boruto, who had just landed on the ground.

At this moment, Boruto finally snapped out of his shock.

However, he was left completely bewildered by Otsutsuki Yuhao's words.

Otsutsuki? Aren't you the one who's an Otsutsuki?

How did this get flipped around!

Boruto thought, feeling utterly confused.

"No, no, no, we aren't Otsutsuki. My name is Uzumaki Boruto, and the one who came with me is named Second Pillar."

Seeing that Otsutsuki Yuhao was about to strike him, Boruto hurriedly shouted.

"Uzumaki Boruto? Second Pillar?"

Otsutsuki Yuhao paused, finally realizing why he had felt such a sense of familiarity when looking at Second Pillar.

But Otsutsuki Yuhao had not expected him to be Second Pillar; he had assumed this person with the Rinnegan was an extraterrestrial Otsutsuki.

Suddenly, the Boruto before him transformed into Second Pillar.

Otsutsuki Chentian, witnessing Boruto suddenly turn into Second Pillar, felt no curiosity, for he knew this was the ability of Sasuke's Rinnegan.

Meanwhile, Sasuke still believed Yuhao intended to harm Boruto.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Yuhao and Sasuke clashed instantly.

Neither used ninjutsu, engaging solely in taijutsu.

In the blink of an eye, Yuhao and Sasuke had exchanged over a hundred blows.

They were locked in a fierce, brutal struggle.

Their fists rained down upon each other like a storm, moving with lightning speed, every punch and kick unleashing astonishing destructive power.

It was a visual feast; every collision between the two seemed to make the air tremble, emitting deafening roars.

The figures of Yuhao and Sasuke appeared as two whirlwinds, spinning madly between heaven and earth.

However, despite their taijutsu appearing evenly matched, Second Pillar soon showed signs of fatigue. Though his movements remained swift, they lacked the fluidity they had at the start, and every punch he threw seemed to require immense effort.

Conversely, while Otsutsuki Yuhao's expression remained stern, his movements grew increasingly powerful, clearly indicating he still held strength in reserve.

"Not bad, kid!"

After dodging a strike, Otsutsuki Yuhao suddenly ceased his attack, looking coldly at Second Pillar with a flicker of admiration in his eyes.

Second Pillar did not answer, merely taking a deep breath to steady his rhythm.

He knew he had to find a way to defeat Otsutsuki Yuhao quickly, or he and Boruto would be in serious trouble.

Just then, Otsutsuki Yuhao launched a fierce assault. His figure flashed, appearing instantly before Second Pillar, and he drove a fist toward Sasuke's chest.

Seeing this, Sasuke immediately raised his own fist to meet it. However, Yuhao's fist suddenly changed trajectory, bypassing Sasuke's guard to slam directly into his abdomen.

"Bang!" With a loud thud, Sasuke was sent flying by Yuhao's punch. He crashed heavily into the ground, groaning in pain.

Sasuke rose once more, gritting his teeth hard as he poured every ounce of his strength into an attack against Otsutsuki Yuhao.

Otsutsuki Yuhao did not retreat; instead, he countered with an even more ferocious strike, their figures intertwining in mid-air.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Yuhao suddenly unleashed a sweeping leg kick, leaving Sasuke with no time to react before he was tripped to the ground.

Yuhao lunged forward instantly, adopting the stance of the Eight Extremes Fist and slamming a fierce elbow strike into Sasuke's chest.

"Boom!"

In the end, Sasuke's entire body was sent flying backward, only coming to a halt after crashing into a ten-meter-tall hill.

"Descendant of Indra, do you still wish to continue?"

Otsutsuki Yuhao asked in a calm tone.

"Cough... cough, cough!"

"Could it be that you are the legendary Sage of Six Paths?"

Sasuke coughed a few times, asking Otsutsuki Chentian with a bitter smile.

Although he had met the Sage of Six Paths before, that had been the Sage in his later years, so Sasuke was not entirely familiar with what the Sage looked like in his youth.

However, since Otsutsuki Yuhao bore a slight resemblance to the Sage of Six Paths, it was only natural for Sasuke to suspect that he was the Sage.

Otsutsuki Yuhao shook his head. "No, I am his third younger brother, Otsutsuki Yuhao."

"So that's how it is. I never imagined the Sage of Six Paths had a second younger brother. But, Senior! How did you know that I am a descendant of Indra?"

After relaxing his guard, Second Pillar asked out of curiosity.

Otsutsuki Yuhao revealed a confident smile.

"Naturally, it is because of these eyes of mine. The moment I made contact with you, I saw through your identity. You come from a future a thousand years from now. You were originally meant to travel back twenty years to deal with the extraterrestrial Otsutsuki Urashiki and protect Naruto, but your battle with Otsutsuki Urashiki caused you to arrive at the wrong time and place. Am I right?"

Hearing Otsutsuki Yuhao instantly reveal the origins of both himself and Boruto, and realizing he seemed to know them quite well, Second Pillar was thoroughly shocked.

As Second Pillar considered that the stronger Otsutsuki Yuhao was, the greater his own chances of defeating Otsutsuki Urashiki would be, his expression finally returned to calm.

"Senior's Rinnegan is truly formidable; you actually managed to see through it!"

Otsutsuki Yuhao laughed.

"The Otsutsuki Urashiki who came with you won't arrive here for another three days, right? In that case, he is in for some bad luck!"
