It's All Isshiki Otsutsuki's Fault / Black Zetsu's Resolve

The difference in insight allowed Kaguya Otsutsuki to always be Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.

This is the fighting style of the Ōtsutsuki Clan; they don't employ many tactics, nor do they need any.

With effective abilities and unreasonable Chakra, they won directly.

The victor gains not only the battle, but also the opponent's Chakra.

The idea of the weak defeating the strong has never happened in the world of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, nor can it be understood.

As for whether or not there's love, that's even more absurd.

Power is determined by the energy one possesses and the techniques one uses, and has nothing to do with anything else. This is the core value of the Ōtsutsuki Clan; they are all materialists.

"Kaguya Ōtsutsuki!" Ōtsutsuki Isshiki roared. He still had a lot of Chakra left, and he couldn't allow himself to lose like this.

The Chakra forcibly requisitioned from the Ten-Tails exploded, the Chakra hand that had been grabbing him shattered, and Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, regaining his mobility, swung his fist and smashed all the attacks aimed at him with his Divine Vacuum Attack.

Then, he unleashed a powerful attack with Daikokuten, sending all the accumulated Chakra punches flying back, colliding head-on with the next wave of attacks and causing a series of explosions in mid-air.

Then, unwilling to give up, he opened a spacetime portal, only to see the black hole about to engulf him.

But all of this was seen by Kaguya Otsutsuki, who was standing on the Truth-Seeking Orb, and she immediately reached out and grasped it.

The Amenominaka of Amanomichi is activated.

Uchiha Shingen's Ninigi-no-Mikoto also conceptually possesses the ability to weave space, but Amenominaka is different; it not only weaves space, but it can also weave new spaces.

Meanwhile, Kaguya Otsutsuki is acting in the opposite direction.

This is the supernatural power she was granted after consuming the Chakra Fruit. Compared to the Truth-Seeking Orb, which have a relatively simple function, Amenominaka is her strongest ability.

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, whose body was already half-submerged in the black hole, suddenly had his eyelids twitching wildly. Without saying a word, he quickly jumped out.

The next moment, his spacetime power was abruptly erased by a force he had never seen before.

It wasn't wiped clean enough, leaving a tiny, dark border, like a candle in the wind, which flickered a few times before disappearing completely.

Seeing this, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki moved his lips twice, but didn't say anything.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: It's All Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's Fault

With a Ōtsutsuki Isshiki claw strike, Kaguya Otsutsuki destroyed Isshiki Otsutsuki's teleportation portal, finally no longer content with simply standing still and dealing damage from a distance.

The Truth-Seeking Orb beneath her feet began to move.

Even though it was transformed into a flying carpet, the Truth-Seeking Orb still moved very nimbly.

It cast a large shadow on the ground.

Looking down at Ōtsutsuki Isshiki from high above, this proud alien appears somewhat pitiful.

However, Uchiha Shingen felt no sympathy whatsoever.

Even human beings need to fight to reach a consensus, let alone aliens.

Moreover, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki and Kaguya Otsutsuki are clearly not the same model.

"Isshiki, hand over the Ten-Tails." Kaguya Otsutsuki looked at Ōtsutsuki Isshiki with a condescending air. "Hand over the Ten-Tails, and I will let you go."

Uchiha Shingen silently withdrew his hand, ceasing to infuse Kaguya Otsutsuki with Tailed Beast Chakra.

Although it might lead to a falling out, he decided to make things clear in front of the two aliens.

"Kaguya, the little Ten-Tails must be handed over to Leaf Village."

The Ten-Tails is the God Tree, God Tree is the Ten-Tails —this was Uchiha Shingen's original understanding.

But now it seems there might be a sequence to the events.

Originally, only he and Nagato could summon the Ten-Tails to collect the Tailed Beasts, in order to ensure that the Ten-Tails would not reappear.

But if there's another small Ten-Tails, then the situation is different.

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki and Kaguya Otsutsuki looked at Uchiha Shingen.

Uchiha Shingen remained calm.

"Although I don't know what the Little Ten-Tails is, this world cannot have a second God Tree."

"Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, you really do tell these lowly creatures everything," Ōtsutsuki Isshiki said coldly.

Although he can no longer defeat Kaguya Otsutsuki, it would still be amusing to see Kaguya Otsutsuki opposed by her pet.

"Are you addicted to showing off?" Uchiha Shingen said. "I could kill you and it would be the same."

This is actually a good idea.

If we kill this guy, nobody will know where the Little Ten-Tails is anymore.

This is an effective way to resolve this immediate problem quickly and efficiently.

"Shingen, I need the little Ten-Tails," Kaguya Otsutsuki said.

The Ten-Tails is her core interest.

It is also the seed from which the God Tree is planted.

Kaguya Otsutsuki doesn't want to kill Ōtsutsuki Isshiki right now, because...

She thought she could feed the Ten-Tails with Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.

"I'm not particularly interested in the Ten-Tails, but the God Tree cannot reappear." Uchiha Shingen stated his opinion directly, "Besides, I don't think he'll hand it over to you."

Kaguya Otsutsuki immediately turned her gaze to Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.

"Isshiki, as a former comrade, you will hand it over, right? This is your mission."

"And then you'll eat me up?" Ōtsutsuki Isshiki could guess Kaguya Otsutsuki's plan.

"I won't be so heartless. As long as you become my protector, you can eat the third fruit."

"... That's absolutely impossible." Ōtsutsuki Isshiki didn't want to say another word to Kaguya Otsutsuki.

That slut is taking advantage of him.

Although losing so much of the Ten-Tails 'Chakra is heartbreaking, everything will be alright as long as he is successfully resurrected.

That vessel called Nagato is a vessel of very high quality.

The most ingenious thing is that he had no idea what a wedge was.

Once he has used the wedge once or twice, he will make great strides on the path of becoming his vessel.

The curse that Uchiha Madara placed in Nagato's body can be removed if Nagato uses the Karma seal a few more times.

It's a pity that Uchiha Madara was dead; otherwise, he would have been a better vessel.

However, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki said he wasn't greedy, since crafting containers requires slow and meticulous work.

The little Ten-Tails will stay in its own space perfectly well; it's not in a hurry for this resurrection time.

Seeing that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki below remained silent, the tense atmosphere between Kaguya Otsutsuki and Uchiha Shingen seemed to ease.

Just now, the thing that could have caused their conflict has left.

This is the incredibly precious "friendship" between Uchiha Shingen and Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Black Zetsu, who was watching everything from within Kaguya Otsutsuki's sleeve, was in a dilemma.

It is a child that cannot be independent from its mother, but it truly cherishes its friend Uchiha Shingen.

However, Black Zetsu's ability to gradually grow from an insignificant character into a schemer who even used Uchiha Madara as a pawn stems from his mastery of human nature and his ability to execute plans.

So it started to use its little brain.

But at this moment, Kaguya Otsutsuki had already refocused all her attention on Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.

"Isshiki, you have disappointed me greatly. Well then, I will obtain your Chakra first."

Kaguya Otsutsuki said.

She was angry when she said that.

Just now, the hard-won friendly relationship between her and Uchiha Shingen has been fractured.

She believed it was Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's fault.

The desire to find a guardian is genuine.

However, in her opinion, the candidate was not Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, but Uchiha Shingen.

Karma is a technique that also includes the technology of converting other races into the Ōtsutsuki Clan.

The sparsely populated Ōtsutsuki Clan would also use this technology to directly create new clan members when manpower was scarce.

Of course, such clan members belong to the branch family and only serve as "guardians" in missions. It can be said that the Ōtsutsuki Clan family of the Otsutsuki clan is actually filled with many strange and unusual characters.

These strange individuals were either transformed themselves, or they had members in their maternal or paternal lineage who had undergone transformation.

After all, they are a race that strives to become true gods, so the original Ōtsutsuki Clan were not so deformed in appearance.

The reason for doing this is easy to understand: feeding the Ten-Tails with guardians is a standard practice, and there will always be planets rich in resources that can grow more than just one tree.

This planet belongs to this category, but the difference is that it was fed the Ten-Tails by the Guardians, which is a bit of a disgrace to the group being protected.

When Kaguya Otsutsuki made her move again, Uchiha Shingen had already used Space-Time Ninjutsu to leave the range of the Truth-Seeking Orb and Kaguya Otsutsuki's Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack.

They were far apart.

On one hand, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki is doomed, and on the other hand... he should prepare to plant trees and create forests.

Before that, he had to witness the death of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.

The battle between the two Ōtsutsuki Clan resumed, and even without the support of the Tailed Beast Chakra, it was clear that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was no match for Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Because Kaguya Otsutsuki can actively absorb Chakra.

The Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack is the medium.

When Ōtsutsuki Isshiki Kaguya Otsutsuki wrapped Isshiki in layers of Chakra and began to relentlessly drain his Chakra, the end of his substandard body came.

It was only after witnessing this scene that Uchiha Shingen felt relieved enough to form the Snake Hand Seal and activate his Ninjutsu.

Chapter Thirty: Black Zetsu's Determination

Deep Forest Emergence was Senju Hashirama's most famous Ninjutsu, and it was also the origin of his early title, "Wood Release: Senju Hashirama."

No one will forget someone who can create forests on the spot.

The main reason is that this technique is extremely versatile, which is why Senju Hashirama used it so many times.

This Ninjutsu is a typical example of Ninjutsu that combines civilian and military applications.

In an era when everyone had to build their homes secretly, the Deep Forest Emergence was a divine skill.

It can conceal the location of the Senju Clan and is also the best "barrier" for vigilance.

After all, even today, more than half of the Land of Land of Fire is covered by forests.

With a single thought, trees grow in abundance and all kinds of grass flourish.

The scene of Uchiha Shingen activating Deep Forest Emergence with the chakra of the Tailed Beast Chakra was even more spectacular than when Senju Hashirama used this Ninjutsu at full power.

Tender shoots burst forth from the earth and in the blink of an eye grew into towering trees, resolutely shaking off the Kitsuchi and standing up majestically.

In an instant, all that could be seen was a sea of trees, with undulating mountain ranges forming the "waves" of the forest. The lush, verdant forest, like waves, submerged the scorched earth.

Releasing his hands, Uchiha Shingen leaped onto the treetop and continued to gaze at the "battlefield" in the distance.

Let's not plant any trees there yet, to avoid wasting our time.

Meanwhile, on Kaguya Otsutsuki's side, the commotion of the Deep Forest Emergence also attracted the attention of two Ōtsutsuki Clan.

Especially Kaguya Otsutsuki, because this technique reminded her of her divine Deep Forest Emergence.

Sometimes, things just happen by chance.

A thousand years ago, Kaguya Otsutsuki developed this technique using the power of the Rinnegan, using the Great Tree of God to devour life and transform it into a breeding ground for White Zetsu servants.

A thousand years later, a human named Senju Hashirama developed a similar technique that bound Tailed Beasts above and ninjas below.

Both techniques share the characteristic of absorbing Chakra.

Right now, Uchiha Shingen's Deep Forest Emergence feels especially familiar to Kaguya Otsutsuki.
