Urashiki Ōtsutsuki, Spatial Duel, Crushing a God

Boom!

Two overwhelming auras collided violently in the air. Fierce winds rose, dark clouds churned, and a crack was torn across Konoha's sky. The ground shook violently, as though heaven and earth themselves were trembling.

Everyone was forced back again and again by the terrifying pressure, their faces pale as even breathing became extraordinarily difficult.

The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, tensed all over as he rapidly evacuated the villagers and shinobi backward. His eyes remained fixed on the figure in the sky, his heart filled with shock.

"W-What kind of being is that? Its chakra is this terrifying?"

Fugaku led the Uchiha clan to stand at the front, activating their Sharingan, yet they could not see the figure's movements in the sky at all. Their eyes held nothing but deep apprehension.

This power had long surpassed the Ninja World's understanding. It was simply not something ordinary shinobi could contend against!

Amid the dark clouds in the sky, the towering figure slowly descended, hovering in midair as his true appearance was finally revealed.

He wore the exclusive attire of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, with a sharp horn growing from his forehead and cold golden eyes. He held two blue fishing rods in his hands, temporal-spatial chakra swirling around him. He was none other than the powerful Ōtsutsuki Clan member—Urashiki Ōtsutsuki!

As a high-ranking Ōtsutsuki who traveled through countless planes to plunder chakra, Urashiki's strength far surpassed all the Kaguya Remnants from before. A casual strike from him was enough to destroy an entire ninja village!

"Urashiki Ōtsutsuki..."

Lin Chen softly uttered the name, the coldness in his eyes deepening.

He had not expected the mastermind to reveal himself so soon to be this cunning Ōtsutsuki expert, one skilled in temporal-spatial ninjutsu.

No wonder he could control the Kaguya Remnants and plan the Nine-Tails Rebellion. He truly possessed considerable strength.

"I didn't expect a lowly Earth ninja like you to know my name."

A disdainful smile curved Urashiki's lips. His golden eyes swept over Lin Chen from head to toe, his tone full of contempt. "You have some discernment, at least. Unfortunately, you should not have ruined my plans, nor should you have tried to stop me from reviving Lady Kaguya and plundering the Ninja World's chakra."

In his eyes, every shinobi in the Ninja World was a lowly ant. Even if Lin Chen was strong, he was merely a slightly more formidable ant, one he could crush with a casual gesture.

"Revive Kaguya? Plunder the Ninja World?"

Lin Chen sneered, his gaze indifferent as the power of space surged wildly around him. "The Ōtsutsuki Clan has repeatedly interfered with the Ninja World, created wars, and slaughtered living beings. Today, I will kill you and completely eradicate the Ōtsutsuki threat!"

"Arrogant!"

Urashiki flew into a rage. Golden chakra erupted around him as he swung his fishing rod, the line shooting toward Lin Chen like a venomous snake, carrying a sharp, icy gleam!

Terrifying temporal-spatial power coiled around the fishing line, twisting space wherever it passed. Once struck, one's chakra would be drained instantly, and one's soul would scatter!

This was Urashiki's trump card, specifically used to plunder the chakra of others. Countless experts from other planes had died beneath this move!

"Watch out!"

Minato cried out from below, his heart full of worry.

Faced with this fatal strike, Lin Chen's expression did not change. His gaze was icy as spatial power instantly condensed around him into a shield.

Spatial Barrier!

Hum!

An invisible spatial barrier stood before Lin Chen, indestructible.

Clang!

The fishing line lashed fiercely against the Spatial Barrier, producing a deafening collision. Sparks flew everywhere, and temporal-spatial power raged madly, yet it could not breach the barrier in the slightest!

"What?!"

Urashiki's pupils contracted sharply, his face full of disbelief. "You can control temporal-spatial power too?!"

He had traveled across countless planes, and his temporal-spatial ninjutsu was what he took the greatest pride in. Yet this young man before him could also manipulate space—and his control was purer and more terrifying than Urashiki's!

"Your temporal-spatial ninjutsu is nothing more than a clumsy display before me."

Lin Chen's tone was indifferent as he raised a hand and waved it.

Kamui: Strangulation!

A massive spatial vortex appeared instantly, spinning madly and generating a powerful suction force as it engulfed Urashiki, seeking to devour him completely into a spatial rift.

Urashiki's expression changed drastically. He did not dare let down his guard in the slightest as temporal-spatial power erupted around him, and his body instantly teleported away, evading the vortex's devouring pull.

Temporal-Spatial Traversal!

The next second, Urashiki appeared behind Lin Chen. He viciously thrust his fishing rod toward Lin Chen's heart, the fishing line instantly winding around him as it sought to drain Lin Chen's chakra.

"Too slow."

Without even turning his head, Lin Chen used spatial power to instantly lock onto Urashiki's figure.

Spatial Confinement!

Hum!

The moment Urashiki appeared after teleporting, he was frozen in midair. His temporal-spatial power was completely sealed, and he could no longer move in the slightest. The contempt on his face vanished completely, replaced by utter horror.

"Impossible! You can actually confine my Temporal-Spatial Traversal!"

The temporal-spatial abilities he took such pride in were completely restrained before Lin Chen. He could not even evade!

"I told you. Your methods are utterly useless before me."

Lin Chen slowly turned around, his gaze as cold as a blade and devoid of the slightest mercy.

A strand of incomparably sharp spatial power condensed at his fingertips, transforming into a longsword aimed directly at Urashiki's brow.

"The Ōtsutsuki Clan has repeatedly invaded the Ninja World. Today will be your day of death!"

Urashiki completely panicked at the sight. All his previous arrogance vanished as he frantically activated every bit of chakra in his body, trying to break free from the Spatial Confinement.

"Release me! I am a powerful member of the Ōtsutsuki Clan! If you dare kill me, the Ōtsutsuki Clan will never let you go!"

"No matter how strong you are, you cannot withstand the vengeance of the entire Ōtsutsuki Clan!"

As he roared, he activated his hidden trump card. The horn on his forehead bloomed with golden light, and an even more powerful burst of temporal-spatial energy erupted as he attempted to shatter the confinement.

But Lin Chen's spatial power had already reached a miraculous realm. How could Urashiki possibly break free so easily?

"A futile struggle."

Lin Chen snorted coldly. The spatial sword at his fingertips instantly erupted with dazzling light and slashed directly toward Urashiki's brow!

"No—!"

Urashiki let out a desperate howl, his eyes filled with fear and unwillingness.

He had traveled through countless planes and had never encountered such a terrifying opponent. Without even the power to fight back, he was about to be completely killed!

Pfft!

The spatial blade instantly pierced through Urashiki's brow. The bloodline power of the Ōtsutsuki was utterly vulnerable before absolute spatial power.

Urashiki's body instantly froze in midair. The light faded from his golden eyes, the chakra around him completely dispersed, and his temporal-spatial power vanished without a trace.

Boom!

The next second, his body was shredded by spatial power into countless motes of light, completely disappearing between heaven and earth without leaving behind even the slightest trace.

From the start of the duel to his death, less than a minute had passed!

Urashiki, the powerful Ōtsutsuki who had once swept across countless planes, had still been effortlessly crushed and instantly killed before Lin Chen!

The dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and sunlight shone down once more. The terrifying pressure that had enveloped Konoha vanished completely.

Below, all the Konoha shinobi and villagers stared blankly at the young man in the air. The entire area was deathly silent; even a needle dropping could be heard.

Everyone was utterly shocked by the scene before them, their minds completely blank.

That mysterious expert capable of destroying heaven and earth had been killed just like that by Lord Lin Chen?

Just how powerful was Lord Lin Chen?

After a moment, thunderous cheers erupted completely!

"We won! Lord Lin Chen won!"

"Lord Lin Chen is invincible! Protect Konoha!"

"A god! Lord Lin Chen is the god of the Ninja World!"

Everyone bowed toward Lin Chen, their eyes filled with fanatical worship and reverence. Their cheers shook the heavens.

Lin Chen hovered in midair, feeling the power within him grow ever purer, his expression remaining calm.

Killing Urashiki Ōtsutsuki had merely cleared away a minor nuisance.

He knew that Urashiki's death would inevitably draw more powerful members of the Ōtsutsuki Clan.

But he had nothing to fear.

From this day onward, any remaining Ōtsutsuki who dared interfere with the Ninja World, any force that dared provoke Konoha, would be killed one by one. With absolute power, he would sweep aside all enemies!

Lin Chen slowly descended, landing on the ground. His aura was withdrawn, yet he still seemed like a god, making people afraid to meet his gaze.

Minato Namikaze, Fugaku, and the others hurried forward and deeply bowed to Lin Chen, their tones incomparably respectful.

"Thank you, Lord Lin Chen, for protecting Konoha once again!"

Lin Chen gave a slight nod. His gaze turned toward the distant sky, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.

The reckoning with the Ōtsutsuki Clan had only just begun.

His legend in the Ninja World would rise to an entirely new height!
