Tsubasa's body shot towards the phantom of the Insect God like a meteor, and a long sword made of golden light condensed in his hand. The sword shimmered with a holy light, as if it could purify all evil.
" Insect God, your opponent is me!" Tsubasa's voice was loud and firm, echoing throughout the entire star field.
The phantom of the Insect God paused slightly, its scarlet compound eyes looking at Tsubasa with some surprise. It could sense the Saint Level aura emanating from Tsubasa, and wondered how he had the courage to face a god directly.
"How dare you, a mere ant, provoke True God again and again? How many times can you use your life-burning divine power?" The voice of the Insect God's phantom was full of disdain, and countless black energy beams shot out from its compound eyes, blasting towards Tsubasa.
Tsubasa's eyes narrowed, and he nimbly dodged all the energy beams. At the same time, he swung his golden sword, unleashing a massive golden sword aura that slashed towards the phantom of the Insect God. Wherever the sword aura passed, space was torn apart, and countless insects were devoured by the sword aura, turning into ashes.
"Clang!"
The golden sword energy collided with the phantom of the Insect God, producing a deafening roar. The phantom of the Insect God trembled violently, its slime and insect corpses constantly falling off, and an incredulous glint flashed in its scarlet compound eyes.
"Impossible! How could you still possess such power?" the Insect God roared, his voice filled with shock and rage.
Tsubasa did not answer, but continued to wield his golden longsword, unleashing streaks of golden sword energy towards the phantom of the Insect God. His movements were as fast as lightning, each strike containing earth-shattering power. Under his attacks, the phantom of the Insect God was continuously weakened and torn apart.
The Immortal King of the Shinobi World were stunned. They hadn't expected that the Saint Venerable Tsubasa's strength was even greater than before, and that he could easily contend with the phantom of the Insect God!
"Go for it, Saint Venerable Tsubasa!"
"Defeat it! Defeat the Insect God!"
The Immortal King of the Shinobi World cheered, their eyes rekindling with hope. They intensified their attacks, working in coordination with Tsubasa to continuously eliminate the charging insects.
Under Tsubasa's relentless attacks, the phantom of the Insect God grew fainter and fainter, and its oppressive aura weakened. Finally, anger appeared in its crimson compound eyes—the rage of being provoked by ants, the utter madness of being offended.
"Aaaaah! Damn it! You've completely enraged me!" The Insect God's voice boomed like thunder, "You insignificant reptile, you have successfully provoked me! I will personally descend and grind you to dust! I will turn the entire Shinobi World into a nest of insects!"
The moment the words fell, the phantom of the Insect God suddenly erupted, and an even more terrifying pressure spread out. Then, the phantom shattered with a crash, turning into countless black specks of light that dissipated into the starry sky.
However, this was not the end, but the beginning of something even more terrifying.
After the phantom of the Insect God was shattered once again, the black tide in the starry sky suddenly stopped advancing. All the insects stopped moving, raised their heads, looked into the depths of the universe, and let out a unified hiss. That hiss was filled with awe and fanaticism.
Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar came from the depths of the universe, as if some enormous being was rushing towards the Solar System. A pressure ten thousand times stronger than the phantom of the Insect God swept in like a tsunami, engulfing the entire universe.
" The Insect God... He's coming in person!" Tsubasa's expression turned extremely solemn. "His true form is crossing the space-time barrier and heading this way!"
"What?!" The expressions of the Immortal King of the Shinobi World changed drastically, their newly ignited hope instantly extinguished.
If the phantom of the Insect God is already this terrifying, what chance would the Shinobi World, or even the entire Solar System, have if its true form were to descend?
Not only the Shinobi World, but the entire universe was in an uproar.
The oppressive aura of the Insect God's impending descent quickly spread to every corner of the universe. Countless civilizations and powerful races on countless planets were plunged into unprecedented panic.
Some ancient artifacts that had survived for a long time were awakened from their slumber.
In an ancient star field, a palace suspended in the sky suddenly lit up. Inside the palace, an old man in a black robe, his face withered, slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were filled with terror and despair as he muttered to himself, "It's Him... it's the Insect God... a billion years... has He finally come back with the Divine Insects again?"
The old man was the guardian of an ancient civilization, having lived for over a billion years and personally experienced the last cataclysmic insect horde. That terrifying memory was etched deep into his soul like a brand, making it unforgettable for him.
"The nightmare... the nightmare has returned!" the old man wailed in despair. "Last time, the Insect God clashed with the God of Ōtsutsuki and barely managed to repel Him and end the insect tide. This time, the Ōtsutsuki Clan remains hidden. Who can stop Him? Who can save the races of the universe?"
In another distant star system, a group of bizarre cosmic behemoths awoke from their slumber. They were one of the oldest races in the universe, powerful enough to destroy the heavens and the earth. But when they sensed the oppressive aura emanating from the Insect God, these behemoths trembled with fear and fled toward the edge of the universe, their eyes filled with terror.
"It's the Insect God! He's going to take action personally!"
"Run! Run as far as you can! Otherwise, we'll all become food for the insect hive!"
Is the tragedy of a billion years ago about to repeat itself?
In the universe, even the Saint Level powerhouses were pale-faced and filled with terror.
Saint Level are the most powerful forces in the universe. Each Saint Level expert possesses world-destroying power and can easily destroy a planet. However, in the face of the Insect God's oppressive aura, these Saint Level experts are as weak as three-year-old children.
A Saint Level powerhouse, his entire body covered in golden scales, hovered in the starry sky, trembling uncontrollably as he gazed towards the direction where the Insect God's true form was about to descend. " The Insect God's power... is stronger than it was a billion years ago!" His voice was filled with deep fear. "Last time, He was severely injured by the God of Ōtsutsuki, and the universe remained peaceful for a billion years. In those billion years, He not only recovered from His injuries but also increased His strength so much! This time, we're truly finished!"
Another Saint Level expert who wielded the laws of space had an extremely grave expression. "I can sense that His true form is moving! At that time, the entire universe will be overrun by swarms of insects and reduced to ruins!"
"Is there really no way?" a female Saint Level expert asked, her voice choked with emotion. "Even if we unite, we still can't withstand Him?"
The golden-scaled Saint Level expert gave a bitter laugh, "Unite? What good will that do? Last time, all the races of the universe united, yet they still fled before God. This time, He has personally descended. Before Him, we are nothing more than a bunch of slightly stronger ants!"
Despair spread like a plague throughout the universe. Everyone knew what the Insect God's personal arrival meant: destruction, the end, and the entire universe becoming the Insect God's hive.
In the Solar System, the people of the Shinobi World also felt the oppressive aura of the Insect God's imminent descent. That oppressive aura was even more terrifying and suffocating than before, as if it would crush their souls.
Naruto gritted his teeth, his Immortal Power surging wildly, yet his body trembled slightly. "Damn it... this power..." he roared in frustration, "Are we really just going to sit here and wait to die?"
Sasuke's Rinnegan spun rapidly, trying to find the Insect God's weakness, but all he saw was boundless darkness and terrifying pressure. " The God of Ōtsutsuki..." If only the two gods could fight again!
Tsunade, A Yotsuki, and the others also looked desperate. They had tried their best, but could only barely hold back the Saint Level insect swarm before them. Once the Insect God's true form descended, they would have no power to resist at all.
Tsubasa hovered in the starry sky, resisting the pressure of the Insect God. His gaze remained firm, but his brows were tightly furrowed. " The Insect God's true form... is even more powerful than I imagined," he thought to himself. "I alone cannot withstand it. I must bring the Ōtsutsuki Clan into the war."
" The God of Ōtsutsuki..." Tsubasa looked up into the depths of the universe, his eyes filled with anticipation and plans.
In the starry sky, the black tide continued to surge, and countless insects, like loyal soldiers, awaited the descent of their deity. Every planet in the Solar System was shrouded in the Yin Shadow of destruction.
The Insect God's true form is traversing the star field barrier and speeding towards the Solar System.
Will the Shinobi World be reduced to scorched earth by then?
Hope seems to have become extremely slim.
Even so, the Immortal King of the Shinobi World did not give up. They gripped their weapons tightly, gathered their last strength, and continued to resist the endless swarm of insects before them. Even if there was only a sliver of hope, they would fight to the very end.
"Even if the Insect God himself descends, we cannot back down!" Naruto roared. "We are ninjas of the Shinobi World! Our destiny is in our own hands!"
"Fight!" Sasuke's voice was cold and resolute as he unleashed the Amaterasu Dōjutsu Flame from his Rinnegan, turning a swarm of insects into ashes.
"For the Shinobi World! For our homeland! We will fight to the very end!"
The shouts of the Shinobi World echoed through the starry sky. Although they seemed so weak under the pressure of the Insect God, they were full of indomitable will.
