"With the power of the sage, shake the heavens. Offense and defense as one — a fist that shows no mercy!"
This was Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's most powerful taijutsu. Every punch was the strongest defense, and every punch was a killing blow!
Yuto let out another explosive roar: "Fifth Foot!"
The space in front of Yuto twisted directly, surpassing even spatial transfer ninjutsu. An indescribably overwhelming force collided instantly with Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack!
BOOM! BOOM!
A blinding white light engulfed the battlefield where the two fought, followed by a terrifying explosion that shook the heavens.
The violent energy destabilized the space around them, causing hairline cracks in the very fabric of reality to appear!
Fierce shockwaves poured outward in every direction. The sky itself seemed about to shatter, while the ground below was blasted into a crater nearly a thousand meters across!
And at the center of the clash,
Yuto's fist collided with Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's fist, locked in a stalemate!
Blood-red chakra intertwined with golden chakra clashed against the highly compressed white chakra in midair, sending peals of thunder ringing across the sky.
At the center of their chakra collision, purple lightning flickered faintly!
Radiating an aura of annihilation and terror!
"So this is what they call a god? Only this much, then."
Yuto's face was filled with excitement as he roared at Kaguya Ōtsutsuki before him.
"You lowly human!"
"You will never understand the terror and power of the Ōtsutsuki clan."
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki growled, her face twisted with fury.
As the two spoke, their powers continued to collide. Waves of blood-red energy surged into Yuto's fist without pause.
Yuto's attack kept advancing! Pushing forward!
The defensive wall Kaguya Ōtsutsuki had formed with the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack began to gradually crumble and dissipate!
"How is this possible!"
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's eyes went wide. She let out a sharp, disbelieving scream.
"Nothing is impossible!"
"GET LOST!!"
Yuto roared once more. The veins on his neck bulged, his blood boiling until his face turned crimson.
BOOM!
The defense formed by the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack was completely shattered. Yuto's fist flashed forward, arriving instantly before Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, and slammed into her stomach with full force!
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's eyes went wide. She became a streak of white light, plummeting from the sky and smashing into the ground, carving a crater dozens of meters deep!
"This punch is for the humans who died at your hands a thousand years ago!"
Yuto hovered in midair, looking down at the crater Kaguya Ōtsutsuki had made, and shouted.
Immediately after!
Yuto raised his fist again, striking the air to form a massive air cannon blast that slammed into the crater!
"This punch is for your son, Hamura Ōtsutsuki!"
"This punch is for your other son, the Sage of Six Paths!"
"This punch…"
"This punch…"
Yuto raised his fist and attacked continuously. The earth roared with each impact, and the underground crater grew deeper and deeper.
"You lowly human!!!"
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's furious roar came from the very bottom of the deep crater.
Enduring the barrage of air cannons, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki erupted skyward with killing intent burning on her face, her fury reaching its peak!
From the massive crater below, enormous streams of chakra suddenly burst forth, pouring into Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's body.
This chakra was a portion of what the God Tree had absorbed from the ninja trapped in the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Gathering this incomprehensibly vast amount of chakra, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki raised both hands. A massive Truth-Seeking Ball began to form, then expanded at a visible rate.
"You all must die. I will reduce this entire world to nothingness!!"
"Even if you can defeat me, so what? No one in this world can kill the Ōtsutsuki clan!"
"Without the Rinnegan, you can't even seal me!"
"You and all these people — just disappear! I want every human born on this planet to become my livestock for all eternity!"
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's voice was filled with rage. The massive Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball she held above her hands continued to grow.
Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball!
Hearing Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's furious words, the coldness on Yuto's face deepened.
"I never planned to seal you again!"
"Because I'm going to kill you — permanently!"
As Yuto spoke coldly, he drove the chakra within his body. Crimson steam enveloped him so thickly that his figure was barely visible.
"DIE, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki!"
"You will die at the hands of a technique created by the humans you look down on!!"
Yuto's body trembled. Crimson steam erupted from him, dyeing half the sky red.
At the same time, the blue-glowing Mystic Eyes of Death Perception activated across both his eyes.
"Night Guy!!"
Yuto let out a tremendous roar.
In an instant, Yuto became a streak of crimson light. Space twisted in his wake.
"DIE!!"
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki likewise let out a furious roar and hurled the Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball toward the charging Yuto!
The power to annihilate all matter and reduce the world to nothingness radiated from the Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball!
A heaven-destroying, earth-shattering descent of lightning filled the sky. The entire planet seemed to cry out in agony!
Yuto's speed had already exceeded many times the speed of sound. In nearly an instant, he appeared before the Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball.
Yuto had to stop the Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball. If it struck the ground, the entire world would truly be destroyed.
This was Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's naked, open strategy!
If you wanted to prevent the world's destruction, you had to tank the Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball head-on. And with its power, it was enough to kill Yuto — or at the very least, strip him of all combat ability!
But unfortunately, before the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, everything would meet its death!
The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception could kill not only living beings and physical objects, but even conceptual existences!
Yuto punched the death point of the Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball.
Seeing this, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki showed a gleam of excitement — but it quickly froze on her face.
The Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball, which should have swallowed Yuto whole, instead deflated like a punctured balloon. It rapidly collapsed into nothingness and vanished!
"Night Guy!"
Yuto burst out from inside the Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball. In the state of Night Guy, he arrived like a thunderbolt and struck Kaguya Ōtsutsuki with a full-force punch!
BOOM!!
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki was blasted away, flying a full thousand meters before slamming into the God Tree and finally stopping.
By now, more than half of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's body had been obliterated. She slid down from the God Tree's massive trunk.
A red streak of light flashed!
Yuto appeared before Kaguya Ōtsutsuki once more, breathing heavily.
Looking at Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's wretched state not far ahead.
A smile appeared on Yuto's face. The crimson steam around his body faded, and even the Six Paths Tenseigan Mode slowly receded. He dropped down and sat on the ground.
"A bit rough, not very gentle with a lady."
"But then again, you already said it yourself — you're not human."
Yuto sat casually on the ground, smiling as he spoke.
"What… what kind of power… was that…"
For the first time, fear appeared in Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's eyes. Her mangled half-body leaned against the God Tree. Her voice carried unwillingness as she reached toward Yuto.
"Guess."
Yuto caught his breath and uttered two words.
"You…"
"This isn't over. The Ōtsutsuki clan will find this place eventually."
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's voice was full of defiance. With her last breath, she spoke those words — part hope, part curse.
Then Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's entire body collapsed completely. Death.
"Heh, so what?"
"If they come, I'll kill one. If a pair comes, I'll kill two."
Yuto sneered, glancing toward where Kaguya Ōtsutsuki had finally and truly died, and murmured.
"Damn, it's finally over!"
All Yuto wanted right now was to go back to bed and sleep properly. But he knew this wasn't the time for that.
Yuto sat on the ground and rested for a while, then slowly got to his feet and walked toward where Uchiha Madara lay.
He arrived at the crater where Uchiha Madara had been lying and saw him leaning against a rock.
"You're not dead yet, are you."
A smile appeared on Yuto's face.
Hearing Yuto's voice, Uchiha Madara struggled to raise his head. A smile also squeezed onto his face: "Looks like you won, Yuto."
"More or less. Not as easy as you had it, lying around here."
Yuto's voice carried a trace of exhaustion. He shrugged.
"You bastard — you were holding back other tricks all along! You didn't use your full power when fighting me!"
The smile on Uchiha Madara's face vanished. He stared at Yuto with wide eyes.
"Haha, a man's got to keep a few cards up his sleeve, right?"
Yuto scratched his head, showing an awkward smile, and quickly laughed it off.
Seeing that Uchiha Madara still wanted to say something, Yuto flashed over in front of him and helped him up from the ground.
"Before that — let's just undo the Infinite Tsukuyomi first. Don't you dare die on me suddenly, or there'll be no one left to dispel it."
Yuto helped Uchiha Madara to his feet as he spoke.
The method to dispel the Infinite Tsukuyomi wasn't complex, but the conditions were strict. It required someone with the Rinnegan and someone who possessed the chakra of all the Tailed Beasts working together.
Uchiha Madara looked deeply at Yuto, a strange smile forming on his face.
"To think that you and I, whom the entire ninja world considered enemies, would end up being the ones to save it in the end?"
Uchiha Madara paused, then looked at Yuto:
"Thank you. At least this way, I have fewer regrets."
"Don't mention it."
Yuto gave a light smile.
The next moment.
Yuto and Uchiha Madara both raised their hands and formed the Rat seal simultaneously, letting out a low shout:
"RELEASE!!"
The power of the Infinite Tsukuyomi was completely dispelled!
The last of Uchiha Madara's life force and chakra was nearly drained entirely. He collapsed directly to the ground, but Yuto caught him with quick reflexes.
"That Ōtsutsuki clan… there should be more than just Kaguya Ōtsutsuki and the others."
"I'm leaving these Rinnegan eyes in your care. If enemies come… you can borrow my power."
Uchiha Madara let out a hoarse, low laugh. Then his breath faded completely.
Yuto looked at the dead Uchiha Madara and took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled.
He could have saved Uchiha Madara's life. But for Uchiha Madara, who had already made peace with death, what meaning would there be in living again?
Farewell!
My closest friend and greatest rival!
