Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

Although Kiyoshi's tone was calm, it contained absolute confidence.

The sound echoed in the room, instantly silencing everyone else.

After all, the scene of Kiyoshi's battle with the corrupted Hashirama was still fresh in everyone's minds.

Having just expended so much chakra, is it arrogance or sheer daring to let 'Yotsuki Seiji' absorb the Ten-Tails?
However, to everyone's surprise, Yotsuki Seiji, who was holding the huge ball of blue-white tailed beast chakra with a look of astonishment, was completely taken aback.

After hearing Qing Si's words and feeling the composure of someone suppressing everything, the madness and obsession on his face gradually faded.

He was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter carrying a complex sense of relief and self-mockery.

"Haha...hahaha...I see, I see!"

He stopped laughing and looked intently at Kiyoshi. His gaze was no longer filled with jealousy and hostility, but rather as if he were seeing a landscape from a higher dimension.

"As expected of the 'me' from another world, the real 'me'... This magnanimity, this mindset of regarding overwhelming power as nothing... I lost, in terms of mentality, I was utterly defeated."

'Yotsuki Seiji' shook his head, a bitter yet relieved smile on his face.

"I was always preoccupied with truth and falsehood, and obsessed with transcendence, but I forgot that the essence of power lies in the person who uses it. I was too narrow-minded and blinded by the framework of this false world and my own arrogance."

"Kiyoshi, you've gone ahead of me, far ahead of me."

This sudden realization stunned the Allied Shinobi Forces members who were preparing to fight to the death to stop him.

Why is this traitor suddenly starting to self-reflect?

what happened?

What does the other 'me' mean?
Kiyoshi neither confirmed nor denied his realization, but simply said:
"Let's begin. Let me see how much you can bear after letting go of your obsessions."

"as you wish."

'Night Moon Seiji's expression turned solemn, and he no longer hesitated.

He swiftly formed hand seals for "Spirit Summoning" and uttered a low shout:

"Summoning Technique: Demonic Statue of the Outer Path!"

Black summoning runes appeared on the ground beneath his palm. The enormous, emaciated golem with nine eyes let out a hoarse roar and was forcibly ripped from the unconscious, corrupted Hashirama body lying nearby, and summoned out.

The corrupted Hashirama was jolted awake by intense pain, letting out a muffled groan. The excruciating pain felt as if his internal organs were being torn out.

He looked at 'Yotsuki Seiji' standing behind the 'Outer Path Demon Statue' and on top of the statue's head, his eyes filled with complex emotions. He opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, it only turned into a helpless sigh.

He then fell into a near-death state again due to weakness and injuries, and could only barely watch what was happening on the field.

Now that things have come to this, even the corrupted Hashirama can't predict where things will go.

Then, 'Yotsuki Seiji' jumped down from the top of the golem's head, bent down and took the remaining pale purple 'Rinnegan' from Hashirama's eye socket.

Without hesitation, he removed his other eye and then inserted the "Rinnegan" into the empty eye socket.

A fingertip brushed across the eyelid, shimmering with a pale green light.

After using medical ninjutsu to link his optic nerve and allow the Rinnegan to function normally, Yotsuki Seiji felt the immense power within his eye surge through his body like a river flowing into the sea, causing his aura to rise once again.

At the same time, the blue-white tailed beast chakra, which had been freed from the suppression of Kiyoshi's power, suddenly burst out with dazzling light and then scattered in the next moment, splitting into nine tailed beasts of different colors and shapes.

The tailed beasts leaped onto the ground, letting out angry or resentful roars.

"Damn it, it's happening again! They treat us like toys, stuffing us around like toys!"

The sharp, irritating voice of Shukaku, the first to ring out, was filled with agitation.

"Hmph, human desires are endless."

Matatabi's voice is cold and disdainful.

"..."

The Three-Tailed Isobu remained silent, but the chakra it emitted was filled with suppressed violence.

"I refuse to be sealed inside that ugly thing!"

The four-tailed Son Goku roared in anger.

"Shout!"

The five-tailed King Mu let out a long, mournful cry, filled with defiance.

"This is so annoying! Let me out!"

The six-tailed rhinoceros hound wriggled its body.

"Om..."

Seven-tailed Chongming flapped his wings and emitted an uneasy buzzing sound.

"Damn human!"

The Eight-Tails roared like thunder. He tried to struggle, but he had also exhausted a lot of his chakra.

"..."

Although the Nine-Tailed Nine-Tailed Raman did not utter a sound, his scarlet vertical pupils burned with boundless rage and hatred as he stared intently at 'Yotsuki Seiji' and Seiji.

'Yotsuki Seiji' stood at the feet of the 'Gedo Mazo', ignoring the roars of the tailed beasts.

He formed a hand seal, and his two "Rinnegan" eyes flashed with a cold purple light.

"Sealing Technique: Phantom Dragon Nine Seals!"

Yotsuki Seiji controlled the Gedo Mazo, which opened its massive maw and spewed out nine thick mazo chains formed from purple chakra.

These chains, like intelligent venomous snakes, quickly coiled around the necks of the nine tailed beasts' chakra, ignoring their struggles, and forcibly dragged them inch by inch back into the unfathomable mouth of the Gedo Mazo!
The original "Sealing Technique: Illusionary Dragon Nine Seals" was an S-rank sealing technique that required ten ninjas to work together to perform the technique, and the process lasted for several days. It required extremely high precision in chakra control.

As a result, even ordinary ninjas are not qualified to activate this sealing technique.

However, Yotsuki Seiji clearly modified this technique, allowing him to complete most of the process of binding the tailed beast and inserting it into the Gedo Mazo in just a few dozen seconds.

The military ninjas watched from a distance, and felt a chill run down their spines.

Isn't this just letting a tiger return to the mountains?
When the last Nine-Tailed Kurama was dragged into the golem's mouth with resentment, the "Outer Path Golem" let out a roar that shook the heavens and the earth, and its body began to undergo earth-shattering changes.

Its emaciated body swelled up as if inflated, covered with tough skin, and ten huge tails danced wildly behind it, stirring up the wind and clouds. A massive amount of chakra swept out like a tidal wave!

"bring it on……"

Yotsuki Seiji formed hand seals again to perform the ritual for becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.

The ten tails surged wildly into 'Yotsuki Seiji's' body!

His body was undergoing a transformation as he was filled with power; his hair and skin turned pale, and black magatama patterns appeared.

Nine jet-black "Seeking the Way Jewels" naturally appeared behind him, slowly rotating.

He hovered in mid-air, radiating a terrifying aura, far more perfect and powerful than the previously corrupted Hashirama!

Even on either side of his forehead, just like Kiyoshi, two small horns, symbolizing the bloodline of the Otsutsuki, slightly protruded!
As 'Yotsuki Seiji' felt the surging, seemingly omnipotent power within him, he touched the newly grown horn on his forehead, a flash of enlightenment appearing in his eyes.

He looked at Kiyoshi, his tone conveying understanding and a hint of wanting to catch up:
"This corner... So... you've already come this far. I'm really too far behind."

Their conversation was cryptic, with terms like "this corner," "another me," and "the real and the fake world," leaving everyone in the Allied Forces present, including the Five Kage, completely bewildered.

Just then, several figures rushed over from the direction of Konoha Village. They were Uchiha Mikoto, Uzumaki Kushina, and Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Shisui, whose injuries had eased slightly after emergency treatment.

They rushed to the edge of the battlefield and immediately saw the devastated land and the 'Night Moon Seiji' floating in mid-air.

"Then...what is that!"

Mikoto covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise, and she subconsciously searched for Kiyoshi's figure.

When I saw Kiyoshi, with his wrinkled face and calm expression, still standing there, I felt inexplicably at ease.

Kushina's face was also pale as she tightly gripped Mikoto's arm. In this world, Kushina had not become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki; she was merely an ordinary ninja.

Fugaku Uchiha stared at Kiyoshi Yotsuki's Rinnegan, which shimmered with purple light, his face grave. His voice was hoarse as he spoke:

"That's the 'Rinnegan,' the legendary eye of the Sage of Six Paths. Whoever possesses this eye wields the 'Power of All Things,' making them invincible!"

Uchiha Shisui, standing to the side, frowned deeply, his crimson Mangekyou Sharingan fixed on 'Yotsuki Seiji' in the air.

His right hand unconsciously touched his left eye, which was wrapped in bandages, as if he was struggling with whether or not to use the forbidden eye technique "Kotoamatsukami".

'Yotsuki Seiji', hovering in the air, seemed to sense the gazes of Fugaku and Shisui. He glanced at them indifferently, as if looking at ants.

"It's a bit noisy."

He didn't even form hand seals; he simply raised his hand casually, his fingertips swirling with "Six Paths Sage Chakra," and flicked it lightly.

"Boom! Boom!"

Two invisible shockwaves instantly crossed a kilometer and struck Fugaku and Shisui in the chest!

The two didn't even have time to react; they were hit as if by a truck carrying steel coils, and blood gushed out.

His body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground, almost losing consciousness.

Yotsuki Seiji's gaze then fell on Mikoto, his indifferent eyes showing no emotion.

He casually raised his finger, and a dangerous aura gathered once more.

At that very moment, a figure appeared again in front of Mikoto, protecting her firmly behind him.

It's still Kiyoshi.

He gazed indifferently at 'Yotsuki Seiji' in the sky.

Yotsuki Seiji paused slightly, looking at Seiji's natural protective posture, and then at Uchiha Mikoto, who was being protected behind Seiji, her face pale but her stunning beauty undeniable.

Recalling Kiyoshi's earlier act of saving Mei Terumi, he seemed to suddenly understand something. He raised an eyebrow and showed an extremely strange expression, which then turned into a sudden burst of laughter.

"Hahahaha, I understand now, I finally understand, that decisive difference between us lies here." He laughed so hard he could barely breathe, pointing at Seiji, then at Mikoto and Mei Terumi in the distance.

"Strength, realm, magnanimity... I may be able to catch up with those, but this... this 'tenderness and compassion' heart, this ability to never forget to stir up romantic entanglements wherever I go, I, 'Night Moon Seiji,' am completely inferior, hahahahaha!"

His laughter echoed across the battlefield, filled with mockery and an inexplicable sense of relief.

After the initial panic subsided, Mikoto, who was being protected by Kiyoshi, felt a sense of security from the broad back in front of her. Upon hearing Kiyoshi's suggestive words, two faint blushes appeared on her pale face.

She glanced up at Qing Si's handsome profile, a warm feeling welling up inside her, and whispered:
"Thank you, Kiyoshi-kun."

Kushina, standing next to Mikoto, also breathed a sigh of relief and cast a grateful glance at Kiyoshi.

Not far away, Mei Terumi, who had witnessed all of this, subtly pouted her full lips. She crossed her arms, making her already ample breasts appear even more alluring, and inwardly grumbled:

"Hmph, he was just as unquestionable when he saved me, and he was just as timely when he protected that beauty from the Uchiha clan... This man is ridiculously strong, and he's also... not bad looking."

But this flirtatious nature of his suggests he might be a born scumbag!

Even though she was thinking this, her gaze lingered on Kiyoshi for a few more moments before she looked away, somewhat annoyed.

Kiyoshi didn't seem to care about the teasing from "Yotsuki Kiyoshi" or the subtle look in Terumi Mei's eyes.

Looking at the transformed 'Yotsuki Seiji' and feeling the other's massive chakra, a satisfied smile finally appeared on his lips.

So, what kind of terms will be given?

"The warm-up should be over by now."

He spoke softly, the black wedge-shaped markings on his body pulsating, a fleeting purplish-black hue.

The atmosphere between the two was abruptly broken the moment Kiyoshi finished saying "Warm-up over!"

Without exchanging glances, almost simultaneously, Kiyoshi and the 'Yotsuki Kiyoshi' floating in the air raised their hands at the same time!
"Sage Art: Lightning Release: False Darkness!"

"Sage Art: Lightning Release: Gratitude Wave!"

Two completely different bolts of lightning, both containing powerful chakra, suddenly erupted!

Kiyoshi unleashed an extremely condensed chakra lightning spear, almost pure black in color, from his fingertips. It created a sonic boom in the air and sped away at breakneck speed.

Countless wildly dancing golden lightning bolts erupted from 'Night Moon Seiji's' body, surging and roaring like a rushing river of thunder!

One black and one gold, two attacks representing the two people's different understandings of lightning release, collided fiercely in mid-air!
boom!
At the point of impact, a blinding white light illuminated the entire world, instantly robbing everyone of their sight.

What followed was a shockwave powerful enough to send people flying.

Many ninja from the Allied Shinobi Forces had no choice but to quickly attach their chakra to the soles of their feet to prevent it from being blown away.

"Chief Fugaku, Shisui!"

Seeing that the two were about to be blown away, Uchiha Tekka quickly threw shuriken, used the wire attached to the shuriken to tie them up, and dragged them back.

After hesitating for a moment, Tsunade also ordered the ANBU ninjas to protect the dying body of the corrupted Hashirama.

But the clash between Kiyoshi and 'Yotsuki Kiyoshi' was not over. The occasional aftershocks of their lightning techniques seemed to lash the earth.

The few mountain peaks that had miraculously survived the previous battle were shattered from top to bottom the moment the lightning struck them, as if they were sandcastles being smashed by an invisible giant hammer.

The rocks and soil on the ground melted instantly under the extreme heat, turning into red, churning lava that flowed wildly, completely changing the original terrain and forming a vast and terrifying lava lake!

The scorching heat wave rushed towards them, making the allied ninjas in the distance feel as if they were in the crater of a volcano, and even breathing became scalding and difficult.

"Strange...monster..."

"Such power... Could the Land of Fire be sunk by them?!"

A ninja gazed at the landscape that had changed in an instant and uttered a trembling whisper.

This is no longer a battle between people, this is a natural disaster!

Kiyoshi frowned slightly, not because of the strength of his opponent, but because the aftershocks of the battle were indeed too great.

It would be very troublesome to repair it with ninjutsu afterward.

He didn't care about the survival of this limited Tsukuyomi world; he just didn't want to affect the "spectators" watching below, especially a few specific individuals.

"Shoot from above."

Kiyoshi said calmly, and with a swift movement, he transformed into a black lightning bolt, instantly breaking through the clouds and disappearing into the thick sea of ​​clouds high above, which had been reassembled due to the previous battle.

"Exactly what I want!"

'Night Moon Seiji' let out a long laugh, his pale hair dancing wildly behind him, surrounded by nine 'Seeking the Way Jewels' that transformed into a golden stream of light and rushed into the clouds.

The battlefield between the two shifted from the ground to a height of ten thousand meters in the sky, above the boundless sea of ​​clouds.

"Immortal Technique: Lan Dunguangya!"

'Yotsuki Seiji' opened its mouth and spat out a thin purple laser beam, which instantly swept towards Seiji wherever it passed.

Kiyoshi's Mangekyou Sharingan power far surpasses that of ordinary Rinnegan, let alone a fake made in the "Limited Tsukuyomi" world.

Under the terrifying dynamic visual surveillance, Kiyoshi easily dodged, and at the same time clasped his hands together.

"Boiling Escape·Qiao Mist Technique!"

A highly corrosive acid mist spread out, but the "Seeking Truth Jewel" behind 'Yotsuki Seiji' turned slightly and formed a barrier to block the acid mist.

"It's useless! Truth-Seeking Balls can grant immunity to all ninjutsu in the world!"

"Night Moon Seiji" shouted, manipulating the two "Seeking Truth Orbs" into black whips that tore through the clouds and lashed at Seiji.

"immunity?"

Kiyoshi's lips curled slightly. Instead of retreating, he advanced, activating the "Corpse Bone Pulse" in his right hand, condensing a bone sword wrapped in golden "Sage Chakra," and fiercely slashing down to meet the "Truth-Seeking Ball Whip."

"What about this?"

"Keng!"

A piercing clang of metal rang out! The "Truth-Seeking Ball Whip," which should have neutralized everything, was actually blocked by Kiyoshi's bone sword.

A blinding spark erupted where the blade collided with the black whip.

"what?!"

'Yotsuki Seiji's pupils contracted.

So, the "Seeking the Way Jewel" can't defend against "Immortal Arts" after all?

As for the "Seeking the Way Jewel", Yotsuki Seiji has only just begun to understand it.

"Your 'Truth-Seeking Ball' is not yet fully mastered, and this world is insufficient to unleash its true power."

Qingsi shook his head.

The "Seeking the Way Jade" is actually very powerful, but few people know how to use it effectively.

Essentially, it is a high-density chakra ball with seven attributes: Yin and Yang, and the Five Elements.

Furthermore, the "Seeking Truth Ball" can be freely combined with the attribute changes within it, thus easily unleashing power that surpasses Bloodline Limits and Bloodline Elimination.

Therefore, it is called "the power of all things in the universe".

For example, the reason why Six Paths Obito's "Truth-Seeking Balls" did not destroy the Second Hokage's "Impure World Reincarnation Technique" was because Six Paths Obito only adjusted some of the chakra attributes of the "Truth-Seeking Balls" to create a property similar to "Explosion" Release, resulting in an "explosive" effect.

The reason why Minato's "Impure World Reincarnation" can be nullified is because Obito of Six Paths adjusted the Yin and Yang attributes, giving the "Truth-Seeking Balls" the effect of nullifying Yin-Yang Release ninjutsu.

The "annihilation" effect upon contact is achieved by adjusting the chakra within the "Truth-Seeking Ball".

Therefore, the Truth-Seeking Balls can take many forms. The extent to which these high-density chakra aggregates, which gather all chakra attributes, can exert their power depends entirely on the user.

"Besides, my 'immortal arts' are far superior to yours."

Kiyoshi drew the black scale hanging from his waist and attached it with "Sage Chakra," which instantly shone with golden light.

As the blade sliced ​​through, it even cut a vacuum zone out of the surrounding clouds!
"Sage Art: Lightning Release: Lightning Blade!"

Yotsuki Seiji dared not be negligent, and concentrated the Six Paths Sage Chakra in his palm, unleashing crackling arcs of electricity.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Boom!
The two engaged in an extreme clash of taijutsu and ninjutsu above the sea of ​​clouds. Their speed was so great that only two streaks of light could be seen constantly colliding, separating, and colliding again.

Every clash produced a deafening roar.

With the immense chakra of the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki and the Six Paths Sage Technique, Yotsuki Seiji effortlessly wielded various ninjutsu, combining Lightning Release, Fire Release, and Wind Release with the transformations of Truth-Seeking Balls, unleashing an attack as fierce as a storm.

He sometimes transforms the "Seeking Truth Jewel" into a spherical shield for defense, and at other times into spikes for surprise attacks.

However, Kiyoshi was the same; he could use various bloodline limits at will, such as "Corpse Bone Pulse," "Ice Release," "Magnetic Release," and "Molten Release."

In his "Otsutsuki Mode" state, his body's strength, speed, and recovery ability reached an unbelievable level.

The current 'Yotsuki Seiji' can only be described as a pseudo-Ten-Tails Jinchuriki. Perhaps his strength is at the peak of the Kage level, but he is still far from Seiji.

Kiyoshi uses him more as a whetstone, constantly adapting to this situation.

"Sage Art: Supreme - Divine Raid!"

Unable to break through after a long attack, 'Yotsuki Seiji' unleashed a burst of purple light from his two 'Rinnegan' eyes, releasing a terrifying repulsive force in an attempt to push Seiji away.

However, when faced with the enormous repulsive force that was enough to deflect the "Tailed Beast Ball", Kiyoshi's robes fluttered, but his body remained completely still!
"Is that the only extent?"

Kiyoshi looked up, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.

"If this is the limit you can reach after letting go of your obsession, then this battle can end."

Since he has already adapted to the "Otsutsuki Mode," there is no point in continuing the fight.

It would be better to collect the Ten-Tails' chakra sooner, find a way to break through the spatial barrier, or find the Second Tsuchikage, Mu, who is hiding.

Kiyoshi was eager to accelerate the plan for the Divine Tree. (End of Chapter)
