"Also, remember not to let Jigen suspect that you're looking for him, or it will be very troublesome."
Ziyun then gave Orochimaru a few more instructions, telling him not to alert the enemy.
After all, if Ziyun remembered correctly, although Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's strength was not at its peak, he possessed Space-Time Ninjutsu, which allowed him to escape at will.
It would be troublesome if he found out, so try not to alert him.
This is why Ziyun entrusted this task to Orochimaru.
After all, Orochimaru has many secret techniques, so it's not difficult for him to remain undetected.
" Ziyun, is that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki a new enemy?"
Mikoto then approached Ziyun and asked him a question.
"Pretty much, her strength is not bad, comparable to Otsutsuki Kaguya," Ziyun guessed.
In fact, at his peak, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's strength was definitely comparable to, or even slightly stronger than, Otsutsuki Kaguya.
But he must be much weaker now. After all, if he were strong enough, he would have shown himself long ago instead of hiding all day long.
"Very good, my Rinnegan has finally come in handy. I'll help you."
Mikoto smiled, clenching her fist.
"No need, I'm enough on my own," Ziyun calmly.
"I want to go... I want to go."
Mikoto started to whine and act cute, and Ziyun couldn't resist, so he had no choice but to give in.
Anyway, Mikoto is at the Six Paths Level, so I don't really need to worry about her safety.
Within a month, Orochimaru had found information about the Kara and reported it to Ziyun.
After all, Orochimaru's informants are practically everywhere in the Shinobi World. Finding an individual might be difficult, but finding an entire organization is quite easy.
"Alright, Orochimaru, you lead the way."
Ziyun ordered Orochimaru to lead the way, Orochimaru took Ziyun to find the Kara.
In a single day, Orochimaru led Ziyun to an extremely remote place, a small, dilapidated mountain village that looked utterly desolate and didn't even belong to any country.
Is the leader of the Kara here?
Ziyun asked, his tone somewhat incredulous.
"That's right. According to the villagers, there's a strange man named Jigen in a cave behind this mountain. He's the leader of the Kara."
Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.
"I immediately reported this news to Lord Raikage."
"Very good, Orochimaru, you did well, but you can't interfere with what happens next. You can go back now."
Ziyun then said, " Orochimaru is indeed a very capable subordinate, provided you have enough strength to suppress him."
If not, he would become the snake in the story of the farmer and the snake, but Ziyun could easily subdue Orochimaru.
"Yes, Lord Raikage."
Orochimaru obediently withdrew. Since Ziyun had said so, Orochimaru certainly wouldn't dare linger here, no matter how interested he was.
Ziyun then activated his Observation Haki and, sure enough, sensed a presence inside the cave in the back mountain.
Ziyun then led Mikoto to a cave in the back mountain, where they saw a man wearing a white haori and with a long braid at the back of his head.
This is Jigen, the leader of the Kara in Boruto, and also the vessel of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, essentially Ōtsutsuki Isshiki parasitizing Jigen's body.
"Are you the Fourth Raikage Yeyue Ziyun?"
Upon seeing Ziyun, Jigen's expression changed instantly. Of course, he knew Ziyun's name; who in the Shinobi World didn't know the Fourth Raikage's name?
Jigen hid in such a remote place to avoid being discovered by Ziyun.
Moreover, Jigen has been careful all these years, afraid of attracting attention, but unexpectedly, Ziyun still managed to find him.
Jigen was so certain because he knew from the first moment he saw Ziyun that this man had come to find him; otherwise, he wouldn't have come to such a remote place.
"If you know what I'm saying, then things will be easier. Ōtsutsuki Isshiki."
Ziyun said calmly.
How could Jigen possibly obey? He immediately released the power of Karma, and bluish-black marks appeared on his body. His Chakra level surged, and his strength, which was originally only at the Super Kage Level, suddenly surged to the Six Paths Level.
"Still trying to resist? You're asking for death."
Ziyun said calmly, "To say that Jigen is at the Six Paths Level is a bit of a stretch. He should be considered Near-Six Paths Level, about the same strength as Rinnegan."
So Ziyun took action.
" All-Killing Ash Bones!"
This is an absolute killing move; unless Undying and Indestructible Body, being hit by this move is certain death.
Jigen knew the danger of this deadly move and prepared to dodge, but Ziyun possessed the incredibly powerful Time-Time Fruit ability.
No matter where you run, you can be brought back to your original spot in a second; there's no escaping it.
"Hateful!"
At this moment Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, who was hiding inside Jigen, couldn't care less about anything else.
As a member of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, he naturally knew the power of this move; if he were hit, he would be killed. So Ōtsutsuki Isshiki devoured Jigen and revealed his true form.
Jigen was the vessel for Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, and with the appearance of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, Jigen was completely dead.
"Is this the person you're looking for, Ziyun?"
Sensing the aura emanating from Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, Mikoto also became serious.
This guy's strength isn't much worse than Kaguya's. Actually, Mikoto is wrong. Ōtsutsuki Isshiki is still in a state of not being resurrected, so he's definitely much weaker than Kaguya.
It was the perfect opportunity to deal with him now, so Ziyun immediately took action.
Without the slightest hesitation, Ziyun immediately launched an attack on Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, who was in a revived state.
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki has not fully revived and is currently in a weakened state; now is the best time.
" Senjutsu: Thunder Dragon!"
Ziyun unleashed a terrifying Six Paths Level Senjutsu, intending to annihilate Ōtsutsuki Isshiki strike.
A deafening Rumble-Rumble Fruit, infused with the power of Six Paths, descended from the sky and struck Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's body directly.
In his resurrected state, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was completely unable to put up any resistance and could only let the Rumble-Rumble Fruit strike him.
Endless lightning relentlessly bombarded Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's body, and in an instant, blood gushed from his entire body.
A series of heart-wrenching wails echoed continuously within the dark cave, creating a truly tragic scene.
However, after a series of pitiful cries, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki Ōtsutsuki Isshiki to hold on. Although he had suffered very serious injuries, these injuries were still healing.
"It seems you have quite a strong will to live."
Ziyun observed carefully and realized that the attack just now was merely a test of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's strength. It now appears that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki is not Undying and Indestructible Body.
That's true. If he had that kind of body, he wouldn't have been tricked by Otsutsuki Kaguya, nor would he have been hiding in a place like this.
" Six Paths - Dark Hole!"
Another terrifying Six Paths Spell was unleashed. A black hole appeared in Ziyun's hand, emanating a tremendous gravitational pull.
" Sukunahikona!" Ōtsutsuki Isshiki roared fiercely.
This is his unique Ninjutsu, which can shrink other objects by hundreds of times, but it cannot shrink living beings.
However, such Ninjutsu appears utterly laughable in the face of Ziyun's Time-Time Fruit ability.
" Time Reversal!"
Ziyun activated the Time-Time Fruit's power, rendering Ōtsutsuki Isshiki ineffective.
Under this immense attraction, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was completely helpless and could only let his body Ziyun.
Under the terrifying force, Ziyun successfully captured Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.
At this moment, a deep despair filled Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's eyes. He truly hadn't expected that Ziyun would be able to find him so easily.
Ziyun stared at Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, a mocking expression on his face.
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's face turned ashen, his anger raging like a tidal wave.
"You wretched brat, let me go right now! Otherwise, I'll make sure you die a horrible death!" Ōtsutsuki Isshiki roared madly.
Ziyun couldn't help but shake his head. He hadn't expected that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki would still be so stubborn even when he was about to die.
With a gentle shake of his hand, the sound of bones cracking came from within Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's body.
"Ah!!"
The horrific screams rang out again, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's face was contorted in extreme agony, clearly indicating he was in Kunai.
When Ziyun opened his palm, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki completely collapsed, his arrogant demeanor vanishing.
"How does it feel now? You'd better behave yourself!"
However, this Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was extremely stubborn, and even so, he refused to back down.
"Let me tell you, don't be so arrogant. I'm not in good shape right now. When the Otsutsuki Clan arrives, they'll skin you alive!"
Ziyun laughed. The Otsutsuki Clan, that's the Ōtsutsuki Trio, right?
Those three are even weaker than Otsutsuki Kaguya; they would have been easily defeated Jiraiya. Did they really think Ōtsutsuki Isshiki so low as to resort to such childish tactics to threaten them?
"Don't worry, you're just going a short distance. The Otsutsuki Clan's members will come down soon to reunite with you. It won't be long. Then you can catch up in the afterlife."
Ziyun said it casually, as if Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was already dead.
"Arrogant! Too arrogant! Die!"
