Chapter 75 Retirement in Peacetime (24) ...
"It's no surprise that I saw this situation as soon as I returned. Our [Ninja World] card timing was truly exquisite." A young man carrying a flame fan and with a black katana at his waist walked through the sandstorm. "I remember there were many wood-style plants around Konoha City. They were all blasted away? The power of the Otsutsuki clan is truly not to be underestimated."
"Hmm." The black-haired youth with a white katana at his waist responded calmly, and stood in front of everyone along with the blue-eyed Uchiha.
"The savior has arrived—you could say that, right?" Uchiha Senma drew his sword, looked at Otsutsuki Isshiki, and revealed an extremely ferocious and malicious smile, his heterochromatic Rinnegan blooming. "A stable environment may indeed lead to complacency and prevent people from growing quickly, but so what? We won't die, we have plenty of time—but you, my enemy, you must die now!"
Making minors the main force for saving the world only shows that the adults in this world are useless and worthless.
Otsutsuki Isshiki stared at Uchiha Osaka, unable to believe what he was seeing. "Is the heavens so kind to you?!"
"You've been completely abandoned." Uchiha Senma uttered cold words with a smile. "The 'Otsutsuki God' that you worship and regard as your faith has long since abandoned you."
Senju Takeya watched as Kaguya Otsutsuki slowly drew out the Black World. Her long, raven-black hair began to spread and float like clouds and mist. Fire cloud patterns, as void and black as the universe, yet also carrying countless starlight, climbed up her face like vines. She glanced at Toneri Otsutsuki, whose eyes... were those of the Tenseigan, evolved from the Byakugan.
Senju Takeya also realized that the Byakugan did not belong to Otsutsuki Toneri, but to a member of the Hyuga clan in Konoha City. Moreover, this person wanted to destroy Konoha City and was an enemy with no room for negotiation.
Without further ado, Senju Takeru, wielding his sword in one hand, arrived before Otsutsuki Toneri in the blink of an eye. With a single punch, he pinned the man to the ground. Unable to react, Otsutsuki Toneri stared wide-eyed in disbelief, spitting out a mouthful of shattered internal organs in excruciating pain. He felt his spine and internal organs being instantly shattered by the punch. With his soul and body destroyed by the same blow, he was utterly lifeless and destined to return to the Pure Land.
Senju Takeru was ruthless and taciturn. He defeated Otsutsuki Toneri with one punch and then appeared in front of Otsutsuki Kaguya in an instant.
A sense of dread, as if she were being targeted by a genocide, welled up in Kaguya Otsutsuki's heart. After Senju Takeya slashed her body with his sword, she took Senju Takeya with her to the supergravity space of Amenominaka.
Senju Takeru only paused for a moment in the supergravity space, and then, as if completely unaffected, used the pure explosive power of his body to teleport to Kaguya Otsutsuki, who was in a defensive stance. This time, he unleashed hundreds of slashes in the blink of an eye.
The Otsutsuki clan has incredible vitality. If you only use a knife, do you have to cut them into mincemeat to kill them?
Kaguya Otsutsuki used almost every means to protect herself from the opponent's sword flashes. She tried to lock the opponent in this space while she went to another space. However, after escaping to another space, she turned around and saw the Wood Release user stopping the closure of the space portal with his bare hands. He tore open the space portal like tearing paper and chased after her. Kaguya Otsutsuki personally experienced the feeling of those powerless female masters in horror movies.
All her methods were ineffective against this young man! His defense and magic immunity were so strong that it was despair-inducing!
She let out an almost terrified scream. While Kaguya Otsutsuki possessed numerous and powerful abilities, her battle intelligence was lacking, and her experience fighting truly strong opponents was extremely limited. Yet, this allowed her to face such a monster after the seal was broken—
Black Zetsu! What have you done?!
It would be better to keep her sealed away by her rebellious son forever!
In an instant, the situation reversed, and a terrifying sense of oppression swept over Otsutsuki Kata. The top of the food chain had already quietly changed to a new person.
The Tree of Life, which had been resting on Senju Takeya's wrist for a long time, took root in the earth and revealed its true form. It was born in opposition to the Divine Tree. The Tree of Life, with its ancient, profound and pure aura, rolled up the victims one by one and hung them on its branches, while protecting the survivors behind it under its canopy.
Indra sat on the Tree of Life, taking the place of Senju Takeya to watch over the survivors and prevent the frenzied battle on Uchiha Osamu's side from affecting this place.
By observing Uchiha Ichima's Rinnegan in actual combat, Indra felt that those eyes could also be called the "Send You to Death" Rinnegan. Uchiha Ichima's golden Straight Tomoe Rinnegan directly improves physical constitution, enhances self-healing and recovery abilities, while the blue Curved Tomoe Rinnegan is a sublimation of sealing the Sharingan.
Uchiha Senma can use his blue Rinnegan to leave a mark and teleport anywhere in sight. He can also use the mark to open a gap in death, which will instantly cut the target like a scythe and drag the target through the opened space into the underworld space filled with mad demons.
If you don't anticipate and dodge in advance, there are only two outcomes—either you die a violent death on the spot, or you are dragged in by the ghosts, torn apart and devoured, and tortured to death.
Through the reaction of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, Indra realized that once he approached the Netherworld, even if it was just the Death Rift that served as an entrance, he would be unable to use any magical attacks and would only be able to use physical attacks.
Uchiha Osamu, who was able to awaken this Rinnegan, was a ruthless person among ruthless people.
Otsutsuki Isshiki was completely outmatched by Uchiha Senma, ultimately becoming nothing more than fish on a chopping board, being chopped alive by Uchiha Senma. The scene was so bloody and cruel that it defies description.
Those who had persevered until the divine intervention finally breathed a sigh of relief. The Tree of Life slowly released dust that resembled shimmering sunlight, healing the survivors. They looked at the victims, bound in cocoons and hanging from the Tree of Life, and couldn't help but shed tears.
Suddenly, some of the cocoons began to shake, making a sound like, "The Sage of Six Paths' stinky underpants! Where did you put me?! It's pitch black, is this a sacred land?!" Everyone was overjoyed.
Naruto Uzumaki finally relaxed and immediately knelt down, unable to get up.
Kushina Uzumaki proudly ruffled Naruto Uzumaki's hair, "As expected of my son!"
"Hehe..." Naruto Uzumaki grinned sheepishly.
Under the healing of the Tree of Life, the bleeding from the severed arm that Madara Uchiha had cut off from Minato Namikaze stopped. Only then did he loosen his hand that was tightly covering the wound. Minato was not worried that he would be crippled as a result, after all, the medical level in Konoha City was already capable of limb regeneration. At this moment, he looked at his son with relief and joy. This battle would undoubtedly be an extremely valuable experience for Naruto Uzumaki.
With both eyes completely blind, Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi looked towards the battlefield ahead, finally relieved. Supported by Sasuke, they sat down. Itachi paused to catch his breath, saying, "Luckily, Ogima-nii and Takeya-nii returned in time, otherwise we would have had to use our trump cards..."
Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Sasuke's eyes widened upon hearing this, and they exclaimed in unison, "Itachi/Brother, do you have any other trump cards that I don't know about?!"
Uchiha Itachi paused for a moment, then turned his head away: "Anyway, there is."
If you reveal it, it's no longer your trump card!
"But Kurama and the others... will we never see them again?" Naruto Uzumaki said sadly.
"Who said that?" Sasuke Uchiha smirked.
Naruto's eyes widened: "Could it be—"
“Before Senma left, he left his seal in my eyes, probably as a trump card for me.” Uchiha Sasuke closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the patterns of Uchiha Senma’s Mangekyou Sharingan appeared in his eyes. “So I sealed a portion of their chakra inside, so that as long as they have some chakra that hasn’t been absorbed, they can be revived.”
"Great!" Naruto Uzumaki breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Under the healing power of the Tree of Life, Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi quickly regained their sight. The cocoons hanging on the Tree of Life also fell off one after another. Those people were unharmed, but they were a little dazed when they fell.
The enemy who had driven everyone to the brink of defeat was no match for Senju Takeya and Uchiha Osamu; it was a complete and utter victory. However, this was the first time the people of Konoha had seen the two of them covered in blood.
Senju Take looked at them in silence for a moment, then gave them a positive compliment: "Well done."
Uchiha Senma smiled brightly, "As expected of my Konoha people, I am completely at ease entrusting the future of the ninja country to you. Takeya and I are completely at ease."
Everyone felt a mix of emotions, wanting to cry and laugh at the same time. The joy of being recognized and praised was intertwined with the lingering fear of almost dying.
The Tree of Life returned to Senju Takeya's wrist. Instead of explaining the meaning of the Tree of Life's existence to everyone, Senju Takeya turned to look at the Divine Tree.
"Should we cut it down? Keeping this thing around will cause endless trouble." Uchiha Osaka said, "What if, when we're not around, some power-hungry madman appears and grows a chakra fruit to wreak havoc on the ninja world in order to obtain the Divine Tree?"
“Let the Tree of Life eat it,” Thousand Hand Bamboo replied.
So the Tree of Life had a big feast.
The Otsutsuki battle came to an end. As the Konoha members adjusted their condition and headed back, Senju Takeya and Uchiha Osaka, who were about to return with them, suddenly found themselves in a mysterious space that seemed to be a data stream formed from thousands of stars, filled with a sense of cosmic technology.
Seeing this, the two were not surprised at all.
"Excuse me, but I need to borrow your power. In the multiverse, there exists a being called the [Historical Revisionist]..."
Before the other party could finish speaking, Uchiha Osaka interrupted directly: "[Political affairs]? Here to borrow a knife?"
Yes, because of you, these two knives have accumulated enough spirituality and stories to give birth to knife spirits.
“Alright.” Uchiha Senma readily agreed. “I just used it to chop down Otsutsuki Isshiki. When it gets to your place, we’ll call it Isshiki Maru. Hopefully, this name will make it easier for it to slay some strange races.”
“Then the Black World is Kaguya Kirito.” Senju Takeya also removed the Black World.
[Yes, the dual-blade true name is established.]
Uchiha Senma readily untied his Shiki-maru and handed it over, saying, "Then, for the sake of protecting world peace..."
"For love and justice." Senju Takeya understood and continued Senma's words, handing over Kaguya Kiri.
Thank you.
“By the way!” Uchiha Osaka added, “Takeya and I would like to have a more stable, safe, and clearly defined passage to visit other worlds. Do you have the channels and methods?”
Senju Takeru also looked at Uchiha Senma expressionlessly. He felt that this was his best friend's real purpose. Borrowing a knife was just a stepping stone. After all, it would be easier to speak up if they had a relationship. As expected of his best friend, the deal went directly to the world consciousness.
Uchiha Senma gave Senju Takeya a wink, quite confidently.
The [Politics] response was quite swift and decisive.
After a fairly smooth transaction, Uchiha Ogima and Senju Take were sent back. To onlookers, it seemed as if the two had never left; only the sword at their waists had suddenly disappeared, and they now had a set of clothes in their hands.
"What's this?" Uchiha Osaka looked at the clothes that had been sent to him along with the permanent pass and permanent residence permit from the government, unfolded them, and said, "The government's inspector's uniform? The Shiki-maru style? It's quite nice."
Looking at the Kaguya Kiri-style inspector's uniform in his hand, Uchiha Osaka realized that this was the method provided by the [Current Affairs] that allowed them to safely travel to other worlds.
"Let's set off now?" Uchiha Senji's eyes lit up.
Before Itachi and Shisui, who were waiting nearby, could even ask where the clothes came from, they heard Uchiha Senma say this. The younger brothers immediately jumped on Uchiha Senma and tied him up with their hands and feet. "Senma-nii, you just got back and you want to run away again?! Even if you're planning to be a hands-off parent, this is too much freedom! Don't you care about us at all?! Do you have other younger brothers outside?! Unforgivable—!"
Sasuke Uchiha stood with his arms crossed in front of Senma Uchiha, his face full of accusation, "I sensed it! Senma-nii has the aura of another younger brother on him!"
Uchiha Osaka: ? ? ? Sasuke, have you awakened some strange attribute?!
Then Itachi pulled a Polaroid photo of Tomato Sasuke from Osaka's body and gasped, "Osaka-kun, did you go to a parallel world?! And you like this type of Sasuke?!"
When Uchiha Sasuke saw the Polaroid photo—at that moment, no words were needed; the boy's blush spoke volumes.
"Kimagami-kun!" Enraged, Uchiha Sasuke lunged forward, demanding an explanation!
"Wait! I can't explain this to you!" Uchiha Senma finally realized what was happening and was about to ask Senju Takeya for help when he discovered that the Wood Release user had already walked more than ten meters away with Indra.
Uchiha Senji extended his hand, attempting to salvage the situation using brainwaves: My dearest friend—
Qian Shouzhu didn't even turn his head: "I'll take care of my own little brother. I need to go back to Xilin Mountain to see Xiao Baijin first."
