Damn it! This was Planetary Devastation!

A blinding pillar of light suddenly slammed down from overhead, blasting out a crater big enough to park a truck in.

Uchiha Yi's pupils contracted. Was this the power of the Giant Tenseigan? If that hit him, even if he survived, it would tear him apart.

He had no interest in wasting time fighting the Tenseigan. With a thought, he unleashed Flying Thunder God, Kamui, and Hand of the Sky together. Without needing a technique formula or even looking at his target, he flashed straight in front of Tsukiya, the Ōtsutsuki clan leader.

Tsukiya had only just sensed something wrong when Uchiha Yi appeared before him. His face went pale with shock. "Y-you! How did you get here?"

Uchiha Yi ignored his question and asked instead, "You're the leader of the Ōtsutsuki Clan?"

Tsukiya's expression turned cold. "Obviously! Take him down!"

Three Ōtsutsuki elders beside him lunged forward at once, while a crowd of Pseudo-Kage Level fighters closed in behind them.

Uchiha Yi inwardly marveled at the Ōtsutsuki Clan's strength. These three elders were far stronger than Chiga and Yuma had been, and all the others were Pseudo-Kage Level too.

He immediately activated Kamui's intangibility, letting every attack pass through him. Tsukiya saw through it at a glance and shouted, "Watch out! That's Space-Time Ninjutsu!"

But it was already too late. Uchiha Yi abruptly materialized, rushed up to a Pseudo-Kage Level fighter, and flicked his hand, slashing at him with a Lightning Blade wrapped in black flames.

The Lightning Blade wreathed in Black Flame instantly pierced the Pseudo-Kage Level fighter's body. Immediately afterward, Uchiha Yi swung his hand sideways and flung out a bolt of Violet Lightning, striking another Pseudo-Kage Level fighter nearby.

Attacks swarmed toward him from every direction, but Uchiha Yi abruptly vanished, and another near-Kage-level fighter fell at his hands.

Fuck! Who the hell was this guy? How could he be this powerful?

Three of his clan's near-Kage-level fighters had been killed instantly in succession. Ōtsutsuki Tsukiya's face darkened like the bottom of a pot. Seemingly reaching a decision at last, he suddenly roared, "Noma!"

The near-Kage-level fighter named Noma stiffened. A fierce resolve flashed in his eyes, and he darted back to Tsukiya's side.

What happened next, however, surprised Uchiha Yi.

Tsukiya reached out and gouged out Noma's Byakugan. Noma's presence immediately dwindled to nothing, and he toppled stiffly to the ground, motionless, as though all his strength had vanished along with his eyes.

The Tenseigan lit up with a hum, releasing a dazzling beam of white light. Tsukiya bellowed, "You fucking intruder! Die!"

He directed the white beam straight at Uchiha Yi. Only then did Uchiha Yi figure out how the Tenseigan was activated-it actually required sacrificing a clan member. He clicked his tongue.

The attack was absurdly powerful, too much for even Kamui to redirect outright. Still, Uchiha Yi shifted its trajectory by a fraction, and two unfortunate Pseudo-Kage Level fighters beside him were struck and instantly reduced to ash.

At the sight, Otsutsuki Tsukiya's expression darkened so much it looked ready to drip ink. Before he could speak, the three elders had already darted to his side.

They all knew perfectly well that this intruder was ridiculously strong, with techniques so bizarre they could do nothing against him. Even bringing out the Tenseigan was useless.

Uchiha Yi stared at Otsutsuki Tsukiya with a faint, mocking smile, making Tsukiya's expression even uglier.

"Who exactly are you? What did you come here for?"

"My goal is simple. Hand over the Tenseigan behind you, and I'll leave immediately."

"In your dreams!" Otsutsuki Tsukiya exploded. "Intruder, you dare covet our clan's greatest treasure? Get out now, or we'll take you down with us!"

"Take me down with you?" Uchiha Yi scoffed. "Go ahead, then. I'd like to see how long you can keep struggling."

"The Rinnegan? You actually have the Rinnegan?" Otsutsuki Tsukiya cried out in shock. The three elders were stunned too.

"So that's it. Is that what you're relying on?" Otsutsuki Tsukiya seemed to realize something, then sneered. "But what difference does having the Rinnegan make? Since you refuse to give up, I'll show you the power of our Ōtsutsuki Tenseigan!"

"Three elders!"

At his low shout, the three elders exchanged glances and nodded. Against an enemy without the Rinnegan, they might have hesitated. Now, however, they had no hesitation at all.

"Yin-Yang Release: Tenseigan Seal!"

The three elders formed hand seals together. The Tenseigan shuddered with a hum, tearing open a spatial seal.

As the seal opened, Uchiha Yi frowned. An immensely powerful surge of chakra washed over him.

What's that?

A figure stepped out of the space beyond. It was actually someone from the Ōtsutsuki Main Family.

The Ōtsutsuki Clan? No, this man must be from the Main Family!

Sure enough, the moment Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu emerged, he glared at Otsutsuki Tsukiya and roared, "Otsutsuki Tsukiya, you unfilial wretch! You dared defy the Main Family and slaughter all our people! You are a sinner, and you will face retribution!"

Otsutsuki Tsukiya snorted. "Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu, you old bastard!"

"Enough! I've wasted enough breath on you!" Otsutsuki Tsukiya rapidly formed hand seals. A moment later, the light in Chuan Yu's eyes faded, and his whole body went slack.

"Intruder, I'll give you one more chance. Get out, or die!" Otsutsuki Tsukiya looked at Uchiha Yi, cold glints flashing in his eyes.

Uchiha Yi said nothing at first, simply staring at Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu. "He's the real leader of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, isn't he?" Although Chuan Yu's consciousness had been erased, Yi could clearly sense that the power of his bloodline was far stronger than that of Tsukiya, the impostor standing before him.

"What do you mean, the real leader? I'm the leader of the Ōtsutsuki Clan!" Tsukiya bristled with fury. "Since you're asking to die, I'll grant your wish!"

An emerald-green surge of chakra suddenly poured out of the Giant Tenseigan and spread over Tsukiya's body. In the blink of an eye, his eyes began glowing pale blue. A trace of that same blue light appeared in Chuan Yu's eyes, and he instantly came alive again-he was being controlled, and by the Tenseigan's brutal form of control at that!

Uchiha Yi understood almost immediately.

Boom!

Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu attacked instantly, shooting forward at an absurd speed. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Uchiha Yi, throwing a punch powerful enough to break the sound barrier. Universal Pull?

Bang! A repulsive force crashed straight into him, driving back Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu's attack.

What left Uchiha Yi secretly astonished, however, was that Universal Pull had only barely stopped the attack. It had not hurt Chuan Yu in the slightest.

Not bad at all!

Uchiha Yi's gaze sharpened, and he switched straight into chakra mode.

A Truth-Seeking Orb floated out, instantly shaping itself into a long spear that slashed toward Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu.

Bang! An invisible force stopped the Truth-Seeking Orb spear dead.

Uchiha Yi frowned. His opponent clearly had not activated Tenseigan Chakra Mode, yet something enveloped his body.

He looked closer. No, this was no ordinary wall of air.

Only then did Uchiha Yi figure it out. This was the Hyuga Clan's Rotation!

It was a defensive technique formed by releasing chakra, but Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu's Rotation had been enhanced to an outrageous degree.

Chakra poured out of his body without a moment's pause, practically wrapping him in a suit of Rotation armor.

"Hahahaha! Outsider brat, you can't do a thing to Chuan Yu! He has Heavenly Imperial Guard! You can't even touch him!"

Otsutsuki Tsukiya laughed wildly, his eyes filled with venomous hatred for Uchiha Yi.

Although he called himself the leader of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, he was merely the head of the Branch Family. Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu was the one from the Main Family, with a Byakugan bloodline as pure as could be.

Heavenly Imperial Guard was an enhanced version of Rotation, an absolute defense without a single blind spot. But activating it required the very purest bloodline. Now, in the entire Ōtsutsuki Clan, only Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu could use Heavenly Imperial Guard.

Otsutsuki Tsukiya had not intended to kill him before, but that was no longer an option! Although Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu's current state was enhanced by the Tenseigan, none of this was of his own choosing.

Only by erasing Chuan Yu's soul and forcing out the power of his bloodline could Otsutsuki Tsukiya make him fight like this. But doing so would likely burn through every last trace of Chuan Yu's pure bloodline, leaving none for Tsukiya to absorb. All that hatred fell squarely on the outsider, Uchiha Yi.

Boom! Boom! Boom! In the distance, Uchiha Yi had already exchanged several blows with Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu.

Uchiha Yi soon discovered that Heavenly Imperial Guard truly deserved to be called an absolute defense. Neither his self-created Lightning Release nor his Fire Release could do anything against it. Even though the Rinnegan's Universal Pull could wear away a little of Heavenly Imperial Guard's power, it could not hurt Chuan Yu at all.

With the Tenseigan supporting him, Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu had an absurd amount of chakra. Its reinforcement kept his Heavenly Imperial Guard from weakening in the slightest; otherwise, Uchiha Yi would have beaten him to a pulp long ago. Uchiha Yi had never expected the Giant Tenseigan to hold so much chakra.

Still, he was not truly out of options.

"Wood Release: Super Nativity of a World of Trees!"

Countless trees erupted from the ground, hemming Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu in tightly.

"Useless! That little trick can't possibly trap Chuan Yu!"

Otsutsuki Tsukiya laughed wildly, but a moment later, he froze at the sight of Uchiha Yi's next move.

"That... impossible! How do you know that technique? Even with the Rinnegan, you shouldn't be able to use it!"

Uchiha Yi gave him an indifferent glance. "Ignorant fool. Don't measure me by your limited perspective."

Then Uchiha Yi raised a hand. A black sphere appeared and shot into the air.

"Planetary Devastation!"

"Damn it! This is Planetary Devastation!"

Shocked and furious, Otsutsuki Tsukiya's first instinct was to withdraw Chuan Yu, but it was already too late.

Nativity of a World of Trees held him tight. Although Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu broke free easily, that brief delay was enough. The moment he escaped, Planetary Devastation caught him in its pull.

Rumble! Countless trees, clods of earth, and chunks of rubble rose into the sky, along with Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu. He struggled briefly, but after taking a hit from Uchiha Yi's Universal Pull, he was caught completely in Planetary Devastation's pull.

The sealing succeeded! Ōtsutsuki Chuan Yu was sealed entirely inside Planetary Devastation.

"So, do you still want to keep this up?"

Uchiha Yi looked at Otsutsuki Tsukiya, whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

Damn it! What now? Do I have to use that final technique?

While Otsutsuki Tsukiya hesitated, the three elders spoke up.

"Clan leader, stop hesitating! Use that technique!"

"The First Elder is right. This enemy is too powerful. If we don't finish him here, our Ōtsutsuki Clan will be wiped out!"

"Clan leader, do it! We absolutely cannot let the Tenseigan fall into this brat's hands. We'll buy you time!"

The three elders lunged at Uchiha Yi at once. At the same time, they seemed to activate some kind of enhancement, and their strength soared. It looked like a ninjutsu similar to the Eight Gates, though its power was not nearly as outrageous.

Even so, the three Ōtsutsuki leaders together were unquestionably beyond Kage level, and they caused Uchiha Yi quite a bit of trouble.

In truth, Uchiha Yi had himself to blame for that. After using Planetary Devastation once, he did not have much chakra left.

Seeing this, Otsutsuki Tsukiya stopped hesitating.

"Rest assured, elders. I'll avenge you!"
