Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

Chapter 512 Kiyoshi: You guys are too weak
"Ahhh!"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki looked up at the sky and let out a long howl.

His body trembled violently from the massive influx of chakra, and the blood vessels on his skin bulged as if they were about to burst.

However, his "Rinnegan," combined with his own unwavering will and sage-like physique, forcibly restrained and tamed this power.

His white training robes were torn apart by the surge of chakra, and a new set of clothes appeared on his body.

Those were clothes made of chakra.

Black magatama patterns began to appear on the clothes, and black "Seeking Truth Jewels" slowly emerged on the back.

Six Paths Sage Mode!

At this moment, Hagoromo Otsutsuki became the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki!

A surge of chakra emanated from him, even temporarily dispersing the surrounding smoke and dust.

He hovered in mid-air, holding a tin staff, with nine "Seeking the Way Jewels" slowly rotating behind him.

At this moment, he truly possessed some of the charisma of the "Six Paths Immortal" from later legends.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Otsutsuki Isshiki broke free from Kiyoshi's golden chains and retreated to a distance. Looking at Hagoromo, whose appearance had changed drastically, a hint of triumphant greed flashed in his black eyes.

Very good...the plan is going smoothly.

First, he will use Hagoromo Otsutsuki's power to deal with Kiyoshi and Kaguya, and then... this fresh and powerful Ten-Tails Jinchuriki will become the best nourishment for him to repair himself and even go further!
"How do you feel, Feather Robe?"

Isshiki Ōtsutsuki's voice was seductive.

"This is a power that transcends the mundane. Now, let's end this farce together!"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki slowly turned his head, his purple Rinnegan looking at Kiyoshi with an incredibly complex expression.

"Father... I'm sorry, but for the future of this world, please... and Mother, stop."

Kiyoshi quietly watched Hagoromo Otsutsuki complete his transformation, without showing any particular expression.

"The Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki... Six Paths Mode."

Kiyoshi said slowly.

"Hagoromo, is this the path you've chosen?"

He took a step forward, and his chakra remained completely undisturbed despite his opponent's increased strength; on the contrary, it became even more unfathomable.

The chakra surrounding him seemed to reflect an entire planet, radiating an aura of grandeur and vastness.

"Then, come on."

"Let me see just how strong you and Isshiki Otsutsuki are when they team up..."

"Could you please let me have a little bit of fun?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a surge of pupil power appeared deep within Kiyoshi's eyes.

On the other side, Otsutsuki Isshiki and Rokudo Hagoromo simultaneously raised their auras to their peak.

"Hagoromo, don't you understand yet? The problem isn't the divine tree, but your stubborn attempt to save it."

At the last moment, Kiyoshi raised his hand and pointed towards the village of Ninja Sect, which was faintly visible in the darkness in the distance.

"You think stopping the Divine Tree will save the world? Look at the people you've taught. You taught them how to use chakra and how to understand each other, but what's the result? They're still fighting each other over a little bit of resources and a little bit of personal grudge."

"Human nature is like this. It won't change just because you take away a tool. If you ban ninjutsu, they will fight with swords. If you take away their swords, they will fight with their fists. Fighting, greed, hatred... these are never brought about by chakra, but are things rooted in the human heart."

Hagoromo Otsutsuki's body trembled.

He wanted to argue, but found himself unable to speak.

Because he had personally witnessed that among the disciples who initially followed him to learn, some did indeed begin to bully the weak after gaining power, and others fought each other because of their own selfish desires.

"So you just let the divine tree absorb the life force of the planet?"

Otsutsuki Isshiki interrupted with a cold laugh.

"What a high-sounding excuse! In the end, you're just like Kaguya—you only want to monopolize the Chakra Fruit."

Kiyoshi looked at him.

"And what about you, Isshiki? You secretly nurtured your own Ten-Tails, feeding it with natural energy. Wasn't that all for the sake of the fruit? You bewitched Hagoromo, making him join forces with you. Was that really for some purpose—to save the world?"

Kiyoshi almost laughed.

That Otsutsuki Isshiki guy is really a hypocrite.

He wasn't thinking about boosting his online presence or changing the future; he doesn't even know how he died.

In the past, Kiyoshi would have been wary of Otsutsuki Isshiki.

But now, without realizing it, he has already surpassed Otsutsuki Isshiki.

The match was nowhere near as evenly matched as one might imagine.

Kiyoshi felt he could crush him and push him aside.

The ninja world no longer poses a threat to Kiyoshi; his only concern is the Otsutsuki from outer space.

Some Otsutsuki's eye techniques have disgusting mechanics, so be careful.

And Otsutsuki Shibai, who appears as a backdrop.

Nobody knows if the Otsutsuki clan has such a person.

Only the Otsutsuki god transcended and went to other universe dimensions.

However, this does not mean that there are no demigods, or beings close to the Otsutsuki gods.

Kiyoshi took a step forward.

The ground cracked silently, revealing spiderweb-like patterns.

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. After dealing with me and Kaguya, the next one will be Hagoromo, a fresh Ten-Tails Jinchuriki. What great nourishment! Enough to sustain your crippled body for many more years, right?"

Otsutsuki Isshiki's expression changed drastically.

"nonsense!"

He stopped talking nonsense, and his right eye suddenly lit up!

Both Isshiki Otsutsuki and Hagoromo Otsutsuki knew that the two would eventually have a battle.

However, some things cannot be said openly.

"Immortal Technique - Mahakala - Thousand Rocks Prison Suppression!"

Before he could finish speaking, dozens of black and red spatial portals suddenly cracked open in the sky above Kiyoshi's head!

Each portal contains a giant black cube with sides exceeding five meters in length.

The black cube, also known as the "Great Box Heaven," poured down!

Not only were they incredibly heavy, but they also emitted chakra fluctuations that interfered with perception as they fell, blocking all of Kiyoshi's evasive maneuvers!
Even more terrifying was that Otsutsuki Isshiki's left Byakugan was fully activated, allowing him to predict Kiyoshi's possible movements.

The cubes didn't land randomly; they formed a vast, intricate web!
"Father!"

Otsutsuki Hagoromo, watching from afar, gasped in surprise.

Kaguya Otsutsuki's pure white eyes narrowed slightly, her fingers tightened beneath her sleeves, and a gray bone tip pierced out from her palm.

But she didn't move.

Because she saw that Kiyoshi's face remained calm.

Faced with the overwhelming barrage of black cubes, Kiyoshi simply raised his right hand.

One hand seal.

No, it's not even a complete imprint; it's just a light tap between the thumb and middle finger.

"Immortal Technique - Super - Dust Escape - Limit Separation Technique".

hum.

A semi-transparent rectangular barrier suddenly expanded from him, enveloping all the first dozen or so "Great Heavenly Boxes" that had fallen!
The next moment, the space inside the barrier seemed to be erased and turned into pure white.

Without a sound, without an explosion, those heavy, perceptible black cubes silently decomposed and dissipated in this pure white space, turning into the most basic particles of dust.

But Otsutsuki Isshiki's attacks go far beyond that!
Just as Kiyoshi used Dust Escape, those "Great Box Heavens" that had not yet entered the barrier's range suddenly shrank rapidly in the air!

"Sage Technique: Young Name Biguna!"

From a side length of five meters, it can shrink instantly to the size of a fist, a fingernail, or even a speck of dust!
But the mass has not decreased. On the contrary, due to the concentration of volume, the pressure per unit area has increased by hundreds or thousands of times!
These dust-sized cubes pierced through the outer edge of the Dust Escape Barrier at an astonishing speed, shooting towards Kiyoshi like the finest needles!

This is a deadly move combining the shrinking pupil technique with a weapon from another dimension.

First, use a large number of attacks to force the opponent to use a wide-range defense, then take the opportunity to reduce some of the attacks to the extreme, and break through the surface by focusing on one point!

A hint of admiration flashed in Kiyoshi's eyes.

"Good tactics."

But he still didn't move.

Raise your left hand and spread your five fingers.

"Yin Dun: Sand Iron Boundary Technique"

Yin Dun is based on spiritual energy and can create physical forms invisibly.

Yang Dun is based on physical energy and can give life to the physical form. The combination of the two can create all things and infuse them with life.

Kiyoshi directly used Yin Release to create iron sand from nothingness.

Like a black ocean, sand and iron surged out from all directions, instantly condensing in front of Kiyoshi to form a black wall.

These iron sand walls, each grain of iron sand spinning at high speed, are covered with "Sage Chakra," forming a dynamic defense system.

Puff puff puff!

Those "Great Box Heavens" shrunk to their smallest size crashed against the iron sand wall, producing a dense series of sounds.

Without exception, they were all pulverized by the rotating iron sand!

"It's not over yet!"

Otsutsuki Isshiki flashed and appeared in Kiyoshi's blind spot to the left the instant the iron sand wall was formed.

His right palm was completely black, a manifestation of Yin-Yang Release chakra condensed to its extreme, enough to easily break through any conventional defense and directly attack the opponent's heart.

The angle and timing of this attack were perfect, hitting Kiyoshi at the very moment he unleashed his Yin Release technique.

But Kiyoshi seemed to have anticipated this.

He didn't turn around, nor did he even look at Isshiki Otsutsuki. He simply flashed and disappeared from the spot.

In the end, Otsutsuki Isshiki could only strike a blur.

At the same time, Kiyoshi brought his right index and middle fingers together and pointed them at Otsutsuki Isshiki's wrist.

At his fingertip, a point of azure lightning condensed, compressed, and compressed again...

"Immortal Technique: Thunder Escape: Thunder God Finger".

boom!
The moment fingertips collided with wrist, lightning chakra erupted!

Lightning transformed into slender lightning needles, instantly piercing through Yi Shi's Yin-Yang Escape defense and penetrating his meridian system!

Otsutsuki Isshiki let out a muffled groan and retreated rapidly, covering his right wrist with his left hand.

He could feel a thin strand of lightning chakra, as fine as a hair, invading upwards along his meridians, causing the flow of chakra to become sluggish wherever it passed.

"Such precise control..."

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's gaze was solemn.

To compress Lightning Release to that extent and precisely destroy specific meridians—this level of chakra manipulation precision is simply astonishing.

But he had no time to be surprised, because Kiyoshi had already turned around.

"Reciprocity is reciprocated."

Qingsi said calmly.

"Celestial Art: Melt Escape - Rain of Granite!"

He opened his mouth and spat out not flames, but countless fist-sized, red-hot lava balls.

These lava balls solidified rapidly in mid-air, transforming into granite projectiles harder than steel, which rained down on Ōtsutsuki Isshiki like a storm.

Each bullet's surface is covered with swirling air currents, amplified by Wind Release chakra, which greatly increases their speed and penetrating power!

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's left Byakugan allows him to see the trajectory of all bullets, and his figure flashes continuously in the air.

But there were just too many and too densely packed bullets!
puff!

A bullet grazed his left shoulder, tearing his pure white tailcoat and leaving a charred burn mark on his pale skin.

"hateful……"

With a fierce glint in his eyes, his right pupil darted around again.

"Sage Technique: Young Name Biguna!"

Centered on him, the air, light, and even chakra fluctuations within a three-meter radius began to shrink dramatically!

The lava projectiles that entered this range shrank to one-thousandth of their original size when they came within one meter of him, turning from the size of a fist to the size of a sesame seed, and their power was greatly reduced!
However, maintaining this continuous shrinking range consumes an enormous amount of pupil power and chakra!
The veins on Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's forehead bulged slightly.

"Feather Robe! What are you waiting for!"

He shouted sharply. The Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo, suspended in mid-air, finally moved.

"I'm sorry, father."

The staff drew an arc in the air, and the nine Truth-Seeking Balls flew in front of him, beginning to transform, stretch, and merge...

Ultimately, the nine "Seeking Truth Jewels" fused together to form a jet-black spiral sword, resembling DNA.

The Heavenly Spear is a sword of desire that can transform one's inner vision into tangible power.

The master's powerful will will attach itself to the sword, creating such a sword of the heart.

"This is my wish: a world without unnecessary wars, where all things coexist in harmony."

Yu Yi gripped the sword with both hands, and the black patterns on the blade suddenly lit up, becoming even harder.

He slashed horizontally with his sword.

Wherever it passed, nothing escaped its slash; distant mountains and ranges, even the divine tree within the divine tree's barrier, were all severed by this sword.

If viewed from the outside by a human, one would see that the Earth has been cut off by a corner.

"Not bad, that's powerful."

Qingsi nodded.

This sword strike is probably even stronger than Otsutsuki Toneri's "Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion".

You should know that move could split the moon in two.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki's sword strike could also cleave the Earth, which is far larger than the Moon.

However, this would affect all life on the planet.

Of course, even so, Kiyoshi has a way to restore it.

Kiyoshi simply raised his right hand, palm outstretched, fingers slowly closing.

"Let me tell you what reality is like."

A massive amount of chakra was unleashed from the center of his palm.

It transformed into a giant black chakra sword, and with its final strike, it severed the sword that Hagoromo Otsutsuki had swung at it.

"How can it be……"

Feathered Robe's hand holding the sword trembled.

The Heavenly Swamp Spear is a sword of wishes; the stronger one's belief, the greater its power.

He never doubted the path he was pursuing, so why... why could his father's sword shatter his wishes so easily?
"Do not understand?"

Kiyoshi withdrew his hand, looking at the deep confusion in Hagoromo Otsutsuki's eyes.

"Because your wishes lack the most important thing—acknowledgment of the dark side of human nature."

"You yearn for peace and abhor conflict, which is not wrong, but your attempt to create an absolutely harmonious world is arrogant in itself. What makes you think you can decide for everyone how they should live?"

"Struggle, greed, hatred... these are indeed negative things, but it is these dark things that drive the world forward."

"Because of resource scarcity, humans fought for survival, so they learned to farm, raise livestock, and trade; because they wanted a better life, they invented tools and explored knowledge; because of the fear of death, they studied medicine and pursued immortality..."

Kiyoshi spoke slowly.

Of course, the biggest reason is that Kiyoshi's chakra reserves are many times greater than Hagoromo Otsutsuki's.

Power is the reason to become king.

This force is Kiyoshi's strongest belief.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki is still too weak.

"You want to erase all darkness and create a pure world? Then you've also erased humanity itself."

What's the difference between a world without desire, competition, and suffering, and an exquisite tomb?

Kiyoshi continued speaking.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki stood frozen in mid-air, the light of the Amanuma Spear in his hand flickering.

No one had ever said these words to him before.

Gamamaru told him that his mother was destroying the world and that he had to stop her.

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki told him that the Divine Tree was the source of evil and must be destroyed.

He himself witnessed the earth around the sacred tree wither and life wither.

Therefore, he firmly believed that he was right.

but now……

If the divine tree is stopped, will the world really become a better place?

Would the world really be a better place if everyone lived in harmony?

Or is he simply escaping from this complex, contradictory, painful yet vibrant real world?

"Don't listen to his lies!"

Otsutsuki Isshiki's sharp shout startled Hagoromo from his daze.

"He's shaking your beliefs, Yu Yi. Don't forget what you saw with your own eyes; it's the truth!"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki suddenly shuddered.

Yes, that's true.

Although Otsutsuki Isshiki was no good, he still wanted the Divine Tree.

But he was less of a threat than his father and mother.

Even in their final battle, Hagoromo Otsutsuki is confident he can defeat him.

Because Hagoromo Otsutsuki discovered that Isshiki Otsutsuki's vessel couldn't hold for long.

However, the danger level of Father is terrifyingly high.

He gripped the Heavenly Swamp Spear tightly again, the confusion in his eyes fading, replaced by determination.

“Father, perhaps you are right. Human nature is complex and the world cannot be perfect, but at least I cannot stand by and watch you continue like this.”

The "Truth-Seeking Ball" that formed the Ama-no-Numa Spear stabilized again, becoming even harder than before.

"Very good, that's more like it."

Qing Si said no more, slowly raised his hands and clasped them together in front of his chest.

"Then, let me see the power you have after your enlightenment."

The moment the words left his mouth, Kiyoshi's chakra surged.

"Immortal Technique: Inorganic Reincarnation!"

He pressed his hands to the ground.

The ground in the entire valley began to shake violently!
It's not just ordinary earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a technique that allows one to escape through earth), but rather it imbues inorganic matter with life, bringing the earth itself to life!
The rocks rose up, transforming into dozens of rock giants thousands of meters high; the soil flowed, forming a torrent of earth and rocks; even the dust floating in the air condensed into sharp crystal needles!
"Immortal Technique: Scorching Escape - Overheating Kill!"

Kiyoshi opened his mouth and unleashed a storm of scorching, dry chakra, instantly evaporating all moisture in the air that it passed through!
The surfaces of those rock giants began to crack, but the internal temperature rose sharply, turning them into mobile lava fortresses!
"Immortal Technique: Storm Escape - Resilience and Lock on Harsh Elements!"

With a push of both hands, countless laser-like streams of water shot out! These streams refracted, split, and intertwined in the air to form a three-dimensional net, each stream possessing the sharpness to cut through steel!
Hagoromo Otsutsuki's expression was extremely solemn.

"Seeking Taoyu!"

The nine Seeking Truth Jewels flew back to his side, quickly unfolded and transformed, turning into a semi-transparent black sphere that completely enveloped him.

This is an absolute defense imbued with the power of Yin-Yang Release, theoretically immune to all ninjutsu attacks.

Boom boom boom boom.

The rock giant's molten fist, the impact of the earth and rock torrent, and the cutting of the storm laser all bombarded the black sphere!
Rumble!
The black defensive sphere shattered instantly, and Hagoromo Otsutsuki was sent flying.

"In that case..."

The Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo, which had crashed to the ground, plunged the Amanuma Spear into the earth.

"Immortal Technique·Wood Release·True Thousands of Hands!"

The ground exploded, and an incredibly huge wooden Buddha statue burst forth from the earth!

Behind the Buddha are countless arms, numbering in the thousands!

"The Buddha on the top of the head!"

All the arms behind the Thousand-Armed Buddha swung simultaneously, unleashing a barrage of fists at Kiyoshi.

And those rock giants, earth and stone torrents, and storm lasers!
Each punch is powerful enough to shatter mountains!
Bang bang bang bang bang bang.

But it had absolutely no effect.

Even when Hagoromo Otsutsuki used the Wood Release technique his father had mentioned, he was still unable to resist his father's ninjutsu.

His Buddha was directly smashed to pieces by the rock giant of Qing Si.

But Kiyoshi remained calm.

Kiyoshi even had a spare moment to turn his head and glance at Kaguya Otsutsuki, who was watching the battle from afar.

Kaguya Otsutsuki was also looking at him.

His composed figure was reflected in his pure white eyes, along with a hint of almost imperceptible pride.

Kiyoshi smiled slightly at her.

Then, he turned his gaze away and looked at the overwhelming barrage of heavy fists.

"It still doesn't work, Hagoromo."

Kiyoshi said.

As Hagoromo Otsutsuki watched this scene, a deep sense of powerlessness welled up inside him.

The gap is too big.

He was already the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, possessing the Rinnegan, mastering Sage Mode, and able to use Wood Release... but in front of his father, he was still as powerless as a child.

The father didn't even use his full strength.

He could sense that his father was merely responding and putting on a show, rather than truly fighting.

Just then, Otsutsuki Isshiki attacked.

Instead of attacking head-on, he circled around to Kiyoshi's blind spot, or rather, what he perceived as a blind spot.

"Did you think I could only summon 'Great Box Heaven' from another dimension?"

A cold smile curled at the corner of Yi Shi's mouth.

Above Kiyoshi's head, a black and red spatial portal suddenly opened!

But this time, what fell from it was not a black cube, but a huge container shaped like a tea kettle.

Sealed cauldron!
With the cauldron opening facing downwards, it emitted a powerful suction force and sealing energy, attempting to suck Kiyoshi entirely into it and seal him away!
At the same time, Isshiki's left Byakugan locks onto the chakra flow within Kiyoshi's body, while his right Kurokan activates simultaneously!

"Young name Vigana!"

But Kiyoshi only glanced up at the falling sealing cauldron, and then at the space around him that was beginning to distort.

"It's a good idea."

he commented.

Then, Kiyoshi did something that made Isshiki's pupils shrink suddenly.

He leaped up and charged toward the sealing cauldron!
Instead of escaping, they rushed in against the suction force!

"what?!"

I simply cannot understand this.

The sealing power of the sealing cauldron is extremely strong; once you are sucked in, it is almost impossible to escape!

Why did the father walk right into the trap?

But the next moment, he understood.

Just as Kiyoshi was about to be sucked into the sealing cauldron, he formed hand seals.

"Celestial magic...!"

Kiyoshi directly used a space-time related technique to slash at this space.

Click!

That unstable space shattered completely!
But instead of collapsing inward and tearing Qing Si apart, it cleaved outward, turning into countless spatial fragments that scattered in all directions!
Kiyoshi walked calmly out of the center, his clothes undamaged.

He glanced at Yi Shi, who was groaning and retreating due to the backlash of his eye technique, and then at Otsutsuki Hagoromo.

"almost."

Kiyoshi said softly.

"It's time to finish."

Kiyoshi is ready to end this farce.
