Otsutsuki Wushi was about to strike when he suddenly heard the voice that terrified him more than anything.
That man had descended upon Takamagahara with a host of powerful beings and slaughtered the entire Ōtsutsuki Clan.
Even Otsutsuki Wushi himself would have died had he not used the souls and future of his entire clan at the brink of death.
By activating Takamagahara's origin, he had managed to sever space-time and return to this era.
After returning, Otsutsuki Wushi had immediately begun searching for Uchiha Kazama.
But they had no way of learning the Shinobi World's coordinates.
The point in time he had returned to was before Momoshiki Otsutsuki reached the Shinobi World.
And since Uchiha Kazama had long since killed Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, he could not obtain the coordinates from him either.
But Otsutsuki Wushi had not given up. Eventually, Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Hamura Otsutsuki deliberately exposed the Shinobi World's coordinates.
He had found the Shinobi World as well.
Still, he had arrived a little too late.
Uchiha Kazama had already returned to the Shinobi World and grown immensely powerful.
Quite a few Shinobi in the Shinobi World could already contend with the Ōtsutsuki Clan.
And Uchiha Kazama himself had already grown so powerful that Wushi might not be able to fight him.
Now, he had resorted to a sacrifice.
But faced with the man who had seemed like a deity back then, Otsutsuki Wushi did not dare attack.
That fear came from the depths of his soul.
"Uchiha Kazama, I will kill you here today."
"You don't need to bluff..."
"Roar!"
Suddenly, a roar rang out from somewhere.
A rift opened in space, and a dignified old man stepped out.
"So you still ended up taking this step?!"
"Still, Otsutsuki Wushi appearing now is a good thing for you!"
