Entering the Ōtsutsuki Clan's Territory

"So this is the wager you placed?"

The moment he stepped into this void, Ōtsutsuki Shikū sensed that time here had changed, forming a loop that temporarily trapped him within.

However, as the source of the clan's time bloodline, Ōtsutsuki Shikū merely looked into the distance and understood the cause of it all.

His gaze locked onto a patch of empty space. A ripple appeared in the previously sealed space-time, and with a gentle press of a slender finger, Ōtsutsuki Tianqiong appeared before him.

"An anomaly..."

Seeing Ōtsutsuki Shikū lay his intentions bare, Ōtsutsuki Tianqiong no longer concealed anything. He put the matter plainly and said in an even tone:

"After all, this is the only change to have appeared in thousands of years. On top of that, he is a branch of my bloodline. For him to kill Ōtsutsuki Gintoki in such a short time is enough for me to take this gamble."

Their relationship was not one of superior and subordinate, but more like partners.

"Since you want to trap me here and watch him resist, then let us wait and see!"

Time was like a toy before him. Their eyes seemed capable of seeing through countless timelines. In the end, Ōtsutsuki Shikū simply stood where he was, unraveling the other party's space-time ability.

This time, he did not use bloodline suppression. Ōtsutsuki Shikū had always known that Ōtsutsuki Tianqiong harbored thoughts of rebellion. To control Ōtsutsuki Tianqiong and turn him into a chess piece in his hand, leaving him without any desire to resist, there was only one way: completely subdue him.

What they were competing in now was their use and understanding of space-time. Ōtsutsuki Shikū intended to defeat him head-on.

At the same time, Uchiha Yū knew nothing of what was happening in the void.
