RoU Chapter 216: Isshiki vs. Natsuo
🕑 Added 2024-03-06 21:16:57 +0000 UTCOf course, Jigen would not really believe Natsuo's words, his eyes narrowed slightly, showing a bit of solemnity. 'This man seems to know quite a bit about me...'
'Has he discovered it, or did he already know it beforehand?' Jigen continued to reflect. 'It seems unlikely that he discovered it, but it also doesn't make sense that he knew about my information beforehand...'
'Everyone who has tried to confront me has died, where did he get this information.'
As an existence that has been hidden from Kaguya's time until now, he has not only not been discovered by Kaguya, the Sage of the Six Paths and Otsutsuki Hamura, but he is very good at keeping his information secret.
'No! There is actually a person who knows my information!'
That person is...
Otsutsuki Kaguya.
Jigen's abilities were actually Isshiki's abilities. And the only person who was still alive and knew of his abilities was Kaguya.
'Could it be that he got the information from Kaguya?' Jigen frowned.
But anyway...
"I don't plan to continue playing this game." Jigen said in a cold voice. "Although I don't know how you got so much information, it's time for you to die!"
In the next instant, his form changed drastically.
His head began to distort distinctly, as if a piece of horn grew from the side of his skull, circling his own skull in a complete circle, spiraling upwards.
The black Kama marks on his body became more prominent.
Jigen advanced at an astonishing speed in the direction of Natsuo. His expression was icy as he approached.
At the same time, the deep purple Susanoo in its perfect form emerged from Natsuo's body.
He then attacked Jigen with his giant sword, completely destroying the base in the process.
"The Susanoo of the Uchiha clan...?" Jigen said as the dust dispersed. "It doesn't seem particularly fast..."
"Let's see how his defense is..." Immediately afterward he rose into the air, quickly approaching the head of the Susanoo where Natsuo was.
Jigen unleashed a ferocious kick, piercing the Susanoo's defenses instantly.
"Amenotejikara!" Before Jigen approached him, Natsuo immediately changed positions.
[Boom!]
Jigen's kick was so powerful that the Susanoo was immediately destroyed.
''Did our positions change?' Jigen thought as he turned to look at Natsuo, being surprised when he saw his eyes. 'How does he have the damn Rinnegan?'
Exactly. It was the Amenotejikara, Sasuke's Rinnegan ability in the Boruto Series. By utilizing the Rinnegan, the user gains the ability to change the position of himself or other people or objects to a certain range from his original position.
Jigen's gaze became extremely cold.
Neither of them spoke for a moment, Natsuo just smiled as Sage Mode marks began to appear on his body, at the same time he formed a sword from a Truth-Seeking Ball.
Natsuo then exhaled and his breath turned into flames, while some marks ignited, before taking on the shapes of red flames, the same color that the tips of his hair took on. And the newly formed sword instantly burst into golden-red flames.
At this moment, two invisible impulses were released and collided. An extremely depressing atmosphere filled the air. Whether it is the wind or the clouds, everything is frozen.
Jigen narrowed his eyes and suddenly lunged towards Natsuo.
At the same time, Natsuo instantly approached Jigen, leaving a trail of golden fire.
Jigen's pupils suddenly constricted, and he immediately raised his hands to defend himself.
The next second, a loud metallic sound was heard.
The sword wrapped in the golden flames was intercepted by a black rod that appeared out of thin air. The two collided in midair.
[Clang! Clang! Clang]
In an instant, there were countless golden flame slashes and equally countless black chakra rods.
But not long after, Jigen's face gradually turned pale. Because the chakra rods he released could barely keep up with Natsuo's attacks.
Jigen was Isshiki's last resort when he was dying. Even though he left a mark on Jigen's body with the Kama, Jigen himself was just an ordinary monk who was unlucky enough to appear in front of Isshiki and be chosen as a target.
His build and chakra were almost indistinguishable from that of an ordinary person.
Even though Isshiki made very harsh adjustments to Jigen's body, he simply couldn't meet the demands of a match at this level. He could fall apart at any moment. That was his greatest weakness.
The corner of Natsuo's mouth curled up. For a long time he had been waiting for a serious battle. A battle that would allow you to try the new version of Sun Breathing based on natural energy.
After a while, the sword slashes with golden flames gradually stopped.
Just as Jigen breathed a sigh of relief, a strong crisis suddenly arose in his heart. Natsuo appeared in front of Jigen at some unknown time.
"Hinokami Kagura..." The sword ignited with golden fire as hot as the sun.
Natsuo wanted to force the transformation of Otsutsuki Ishiki's true form.
At this critical moment, Jigen felt like everything was slowing down. He had no choice but to fight to the death. Black rods of chakra instantly appeared on his neck.
"...Clear Blue Sky!"
Instantly, a dazzling flash of light appeared, which then turned into several circular slashes of fire that shone with a golden light.
The fierce energy turned into a terrible gust of wind and vented in all directions. The terrifying heat vaporizes moisture in the air, forming a rising cloud of explosions.
[Whoosh!]
Natsuo swung the sword, and the strong wind generated blew away all the dust in the place.
"The reason you appeared in such a research base is to find your next Vessel, right?" Natsuo looked around the scientific research base that had almost completely disappeared.
Through his perception, he could clearly distinguish that in the depths of the place there were the bodies of countless young people locked in cultivation cabins filled with a special liquid.
These bodies were not only candidates for Isshiki's vessel, but also future members of the Kara organization.
"It seems there aren't many qualified vessels here."
The current Kara organization was far from being as powerful as in the future...
Members of the Otsutsuki clan can create a compressed backup copy of their biological data, which they can then embed in the body of a compatible recipient known as a vessel. This is achieved through the Kama which superficially resembles a tattooed seal but is actually a pyramid-shaped spike that is embedded in the body of the vessel.
Over time, Kama will gradually overwrite the vessel's genetic profile until he transforms into a perfect Otsutsuki. If the Otsutsuki is killed, his soul will migrate to one of his vessels and become anchored to the world of the living, and when the Kama is complete it will reincarnate through his body, replacing them completely.
Natsuo's smile grew wider as he watched Jigen undergo a massive transformation.
No, it was Otsutsuki Isshiki now. He wore an elegant white tailcoat, long sleeved with maroon lining and cuffs and an oversized collar that folded over his bare, muscular torso, over a pair of baggy black pants. His coat was embroidered with patterns that matched his tattoos, with vertical columns composed of eight magatama designs on the sleeves and a similar pattern on the back, with the second magatama replaced by the black mallet emblem.
He had pale skin along with pale blue hair, right eyebrow, and goatee trimmed in unusual alternating zigzag patterns, while his fingernails and toenails were painted a deep black.
Along with a long, curved horn that grew from his left forehead and wrapped around the back of his skull before protruding from his right temple, resembling a crown, he completely took on the appearance of an alien.
But the most attractive thing is his eyes.
The iris and pupil of his right eye were yellow with a black wheel-shaped pattern with eight spokes coming out of the center. This is the dojutsu of him that after eating the chakra fruit produced by a certain planet earlier, he evolved into his current form. Through this dojutsu he can use the Sukunahikona and Daikokuten techniques.
"Uchiha Natsuo, you will regret your provocative behavior."
Isshiki's killing intent was fierce. Now he only has three days left to live at most. The only way to survive is to defeat Natsuo, find a vessel and possess it to survive.
Although Isshiki didn't have a vessel as compatible as Kawaki, he had prepared a vessel just in case.
Although he was not perfect, he would treat the new vessel the same way he treated Jigen, which would allow Isshiki to continue surviving.
"Experience the horror of the Otsutsuki clan."
They just finished Isshiki's words. One after another, giant cubes appeared out of nowhere above Natsuo's head.
Obviously Isshiki wanted to block Natsuo's perception ability first.
A blast of deafening sound exploded, and Isshiki turned into a stream of white light and hit Natsuo's location.
Without the slightest hesitation, Natsuo swung his sword covered in red-gold flames to meet Isshiki's move head-on.
[Boom!]
The red-gold fire slash shot out and collided with the incoming white meteor.
Isshiki held the special black rod in his hand and constantly clashed fiercely with the sword created by Natsuo, which burned with golden-red flames.
The speed of the two was so fast that two flashes of different colors could be seen that were wildly intertwined. And every time the two flashes of light collide, there will be an explosion of energy.
Although the battlefield was both on the ground and in the air. However, the enormous power still spread throughout the mountain and caused large areas of destruction.
Looking around, the mountain is crumbling, and the earth is cracked. Added to the high temperature caused by Natsuo's attacks, soon all the snow within the battle range melted.
In the blink of an eye, a raging sea of fire formed like a tsunami.
Even villages, which are hundreds of kilometers away, can clearly hear the roar of the explosions, just as they can see the flashes of white and red light from time to time in the sky.
Now the entire border of the Land of Snow has become a battlefield for Natsuo and Isshiki.
Natsuo and Isshiki clashed fiercely again and immediately caused a devastating explosion followed by a searing wave of fire. Causing a new round of devastation and destruction to the already ruined mountains.
After the collision, Isshiki fell at supersonic speed, rapidly tearing through the void with bursts of thunderous sonic booms.
[Boom!]
In an instant, a huge curtain of debris shook like a tsunami.
In a deep crater Isshiki clung to the hot ground beneath him with one hand and used his other hand to cover the bloody wound on his chest, trying to right himself with difficulty.
But just as he was about to get up, he spit out a mouthful of blood on the spot, and his already pale face became even paler.
The weak figure could only half kneel on the ground, gasping for air.
Isshiki couldn't believe the current situation. Although he had regained all of his strength, he still couldn't defeat that guy named Natsuo.
But what infuriated him the most was that Natsuo's strength would continue to improve during the fierce battle.
At this moment, Natsuo's figure slowly descended, finally floating in the air and looking at Isshiki. "You're pretty good. I haven't had a serious fight in a long time. This time I integrated a lot of my techniques into my fighting style."
Isshiki endured the pain in his body, stood up and raised his head to face Natsuo's calm gaze.
Then, Isshiki finally woke up and his expression returned to its previous calm. As she summoned a black-red energy group behind him, she looked at Natsuo, who was not far away. And he immediately entered the portal without giving Natsuo the chance to react.
"I escaped..." Isshiki looked at the familiar scene around him, feeling unreal. He thought he would have to pay a high price to escape from Natsuo.
"It seems like he was careless... Hahaha, careless during the battle, what a fool!"
Isshiki repeatedly cursed Natsuo, as if only then could he calm his emotions.
"Wait and see! When I find another vessel, I will take my time to settle accounts with you." Isshiki inhaled deeply, a bit of hatred in his eyes.
It was the first time he had experienced such humiliation.
Uchiha Natsuo... It is said that he valued his family very much. He had a large number of children to rebuild his clan.
"Now you are very strong, I admit that I am not your opponent." Isshiki laughed coldly. "But human life is limited, while the life of the Otsutsuki clan is infinite!"
"When you die, I will see how I claim this debt from your descendants."
"No, I don't need to wait for you to die. I just have to wait for you to get old to collect this debt."
"Oh, so that's your strategy." A light voice sounded.
Isshiki's expression froze instantly.
