Zombie Sage in Naruto

Chapter 238 You Will Also Become My Tool

Toneri finally unleashed his most prized trump card, his strongest attack, a power that pushed the Tenseigan to its limits.

This power was so strong that it shook people's hearts. The dazzling golden light was sacred and seemed to have no end, extending endlessly. In Sheren's hand, it pointed straight to outer space, yet it clearly exuded an extreme killing intent and cold-blooded aura, naturally carrying a terrifying pressure that could cut through all matter.

Faced with this power, even the massive ninja seemed to tremble, as endless magma surged and engulfed the earth.

All the people on earth looked up in terror, their vision filled with the indescribable golden beam of light, as if facing a natural enemy, every cell in their bodies began to emit a piercing scream.

"What is that? What's wrong now?!"

"This world is probably doomed. Why does this kind of cataclysmic disaster keep happening every now and then? We don't even know who's fighting whom!"

"Hahaha, this time it's the Land of Lightning! That country is doomed! First the Blood Moon, and now this golden light..."

The explosion of pessimists is not surprising; it's because the dramatic changes in the ninja world over the past few years have made many people who were used to the old rhythm and patterns feel unfamiliar.

The old days were good: birth, growth, training, killing or being killed—simple and pure. But things are different now. Ninjas are gradually becoming insufficient to support the operation of this world, and more powerful beings have rewritten the old rules.

First came the zombies, but this was not the end, but the beginning. Powerful beings appeared one after another, repeatedly impacting the world's order. No one knew when they would be affected by the sudden outbreak of war, dying from various natural disasters or long-range shockwaves.

In the Konoha Forest, the Fourth Raikage, who was half-dead from the attack, also saw the golden light and could vaguely sense the terrifying energy emanating from the northeast.

His extremely wicked temperament improved somewhat, and the movement indicated that Toneri had not broken the agreement. After obtaining the Tenseigan, he really started working and fought with Kaedeji!

And the battle was exceptionally fierce!
"This must be Toneri Otsutsuki's eye technique; it can definitely kill Tsukasa Kaede!"

The Fourth Raikage had several ribs broken, coughing up blood. The puppet component he wore on his right hand had been destroyed in the battle, and several of his full muscles were missing.

The ground was full of potholes, and trees were fallen in large numbers. Traces of heavy trampling could often be seen, showing how fierce the battle was. These two people were almost at the limit of what ordinary ninjas could achieve in terms of both strength and speed.

Even though they fought and retreated, not intending to entangle with Might Guy within the Land of Fire, it was useless. Might Guy, with the Eight Gates open, was enough to hold off the Fourth Raikage if he fought desperately.

This enraged the Fourth Raikage, who then abandoned his escape. In the brief moment before, the two exchanged countless blows in a true battle of wits, with the Fourth Raikage suffering a severe beating.

Although it wasn't the first time he had lost, compared to the last time when Kaede Tsukasa took away his right hand, this time it was undoubtedly more devastating for the Fourth Raikage.

The Fourth Raikage slumped in front of a tree stump that had been smashed to the point of being almost entirely reduced to its roots, panting heavily. He could barely maintain his Lightning Release Chakra Mode, and glared angrily at the red-clad man standing before him.

Might Guy wasn't in much better shape. His muscles were shattered, his ligaments were broken, and he could barely stand. He was crooked and wouldn't be long before he died. Moreover, he was carrying Hinata while fighting the Fourth Raikage. The fact that he had forced the Fourth Raikage to this point in such a short time was enough to prove his strength.

“The Hokage will not truly die. The Otsutsuki you found has been reduced to having to gouge out the eyes of Hyuga children in order to unleash his power. Such a person is not a strong person at all.” Might Guy moved step by step to the Fourth Raikage.

"Nonsense! Didn't you feel that power? Kaedeji doesn't have that kind of technique!"

“Strength in physical strength is not contradictory to weakness in mentality. Even the Otsutsuki are just another kind of human, not an omnipotent god. The one who can go all the way to the end will definitely be the Hokage, just like the many battles he has experienced in the past.”

Might Guy firmly believed this; Kaede Tsukasa couldn't possibly have died at the hands of a random Otsutsuki.

The Fourth Raikage swallowed hard, the saliva mixed with blood entering his stomach. He gave Might Guy one last, grim look before mustering his last bit of strength.

Might Guy immediately raised one hand, assuming a fighting stance, ready for a final showdown with the Fourth Raikage—as for Hinata? There's no need to worry, the Konoha reinforcements will arrive soon and ensure Hinata's safety.

"See you next time. Maybe we can meet again in a genjutsu soon. At that time, I will pay the Hokage a generous amount of chakra and have a good fight with you in a separate spiritual space... Although by then, you, who can't even train, will be even less of a match for me."

The red heat emanating from Might Guy's body gradually dissipated. He was about to die, but since he could be resurrected anyway, and had already been resurrected several times, he was extremely calm.

At that very moment, the Fourth Raikage moved.

Unlike before, he didn't engage in a real man's duel with Might Guy. Instead, he ran away frantically, and actually got away, catching Might Guy off guard!

By the time they wanted to catch up, Might Day was no longer in the same condition to unleash his previous speed, and he missed his best opportunity.

"How could this happen? The Fourth Raikage actually ran away in the face of battle..."

Might Guy silently watched the blue figure disappear into the distance, then slowly sat down and gently placed Hinata on the ground.

For someone as proud as him to choose to run away... it seems he was forced into a corner. He could probably sense how frantic the Fourth Raikage was at that moment. Dying in battle was easy, but choosing to run away in order to live a painful life was much harder.

“In this way, I will die again. But after dying so many times, I have never had a memory of the Pure Land. It’s such a pity.”

As Matt Dai's mind wandered, the golden beam of light that had been slashed down was reflected in his unfocused pupils.

……

The Land of Lightning is being slowly split in two.

The power of the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion was revealed for the first time. Even Sheren, who used this move, was experiencing the power of this strongest sword for the first time. He had a strong premonition that no matter what blocked his way, he could cleave it in one blow!
Let alone Kaedeji Tsukasa, who seems to have wandered off from some unknown planet to the ninja world, he could cleave apart any other Otsutsuki, and even this very planet beneath his feet!
The idea of ​​splitting the ninja world was obviously an illusion, and Shirou knew that, but that didn't stop him from being full of confidence in the power of his move.

Just as the golden light was about to descend upon Kaedeji, unstoppable and inescapable, Toneri saw Kaedeji slowly raise his head. "You bastard, what method do you plan to use against me? Susanoo or Wood Release? Even that last Truth-Seeking Ball is no match for me!!"

The expressions of the servants became somewhat ferocious, excited by the terrifying power they controlled and delighted at eliminating their powerful enemies.

Kaede Tsukasa calmly watched the golden beam of light descend from the sky, slashing down fiercely. The ground beneath his feet cracked open in sync, stretching straight to the horizon.

The Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, a power that could have split the moon in two with a single blow in the original timeline, was personally experienced by Kaedeji Tsukasa.

"I see. This power is truly astonishing, but it doesn't seem insurmountable."

Kaede Tsukasa analyzed the situation carefully. He had gathered a massive amount of chakra in a short period of time through the small moon he had just created, and had drawn it all into his own hands. Now it was time to put it to good use.

"Relying on that hastily gathered chakra? What's the use? If we wanted to steal chakra, we could have just attacked those two tailed beasts directly!"

A sense of unease crept into Toneri's mind—perhaps he shouldn't have used the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion to directly attack Kaedeji, but instead destroyed the small moon first? But even if he destroyed the moon, Kaedeji had already extracted a large amount of chakra.

But what's the point?
He doesn't understand, nor does he need to understand; he should just kill Kaedeji as well!

Kaedeji pressed the chakra in his hand towards the Truth-Seeking Ball: "Then, let's try this. The strongest weapon formed from the combined chakra of so many people..."

The shape of the Seeking the Way Jade changed again, with two black lines extending out in a spiral, and numerous horizontal lines extending between the black lines to connect them.

In terms of overall structure, it closely resembles a black DNA double helix. Under Kaede Tsukasa's control, this thing also continued to grow, reaching towards the golden beam of light descending from the sky.

From a distance, it looks like two infinitely long forces clashing head-on.

“This is…” Sheren’s eyelids twitched.

"Amanuma Spear!"

Kaedeji Tsukasa carried the chakra of countless people and poured it all into the Amazuma Spear. This weapon was originally a weapon that relied on will to exert its power, and chakra itself was a product of the condensation of life and spirit.

In fact, Kaedeji himself was also experimenting. Just like Toneri when he first used the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion and couldn't really judge the extent of the power of this technique, Kaedeji was also unsure whether playing with the Heavenly Swamp Spear in this way would work.

Anyway, he wasn't afraid of the consequences of failure. Even if he failed and was crushed by Sheren in one blow, he would just fight again next time. He didn't believe that Sheren had the ability to travel through time on his own.

One black and one gold, the two forces engaged in an unprecedented confrontation. Even in what appeared to be a mere casual contact, the intense tearing sensation spread rapidly, distorting the surrounding space.

As the conflict intensified, this force eventually spread to the planet of the ninja world, causing destruction more terrifying than ever before.

The Land of Lightning is tearing apart. If viewed from above, the continental shelf on which this vast country is situated is showing more and more cracks, with large amounts of seawater flowing in and relentlessly eroding it.

People kept falling into the deep pits or being swept away by the sea, never to be seen again. Towns collapsed and villages disappeared. Even ninjas had no chance of escaping in the face of a disaster of this scale, let alone ordinary people.

Moreover, the ninjas scattered throughout the Land of Lightning had their chakra severely depleted by Kaede Tsukasa, leaving them with insufficient strength to cope with this terrible natural and man-made disaster.

It felt like a long time had passed, yet also like a fleeting moment.

The golden beam of light that should have cleaved the world gradually dimmed, but it did destroy Kaede Tsukasa's Amanuma Spear.

Under their watchful eyes, the Heavenly Swamp Spear shattered piece by piece, powerless to stop the destruction of the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.

"As expected, relying on a Truth-Seeking Ball and the chakra of this group of people is not enough to completely dismantle the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion... After all, I do not have the true power of the Six Paths, and I am not able to unleash the power of the Heavenly Swamp Spear."

Kaede Tsukasa was not surprised and did not feel any regret about this defeat, because he had already achieved his goal—the Heavenly Swamp Spear had indeed eliminated the strongest power of the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, and the remaining power was far less than it had been at the beginning.

When the golden light struck the earth, it was already at its last gasp and could no longer kill Kaedeji.

"No, damn it, how could this be? You actually blocked my Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion! My eyes are clearly the strongest, far surpassing your Rinnegan!" Shiren roared in disbelief.

He was supposed to be aloof and arrogant, but when facing Kaede Tsukasa, he was repeatedly thwarted, and his mentality gradually crumbled, which was completely different from what he had expected.

He failed to destroy the ninja world, failed to eliminate all his enemies, and failed to find a pure-blooded Hyuga descendant to reproduce new humans. It seems he accomplished nothing.

If you had to categorize it, he probably destroyed the Land of Lightning and the Hidden Cloud Village, but that's hardly an achievement, because allowing those two villages to continue to exist wouldn't affect him in the slightest.

Kaede Tsukasa released the Truth-Seeking Ball he was barely maintaining and said calmly, "You've got it wrong. The Rinnegan is just one of my many abilities, and it's somewhat useful for me to achieve my goals, which is why I went to the trouble of getting my hands on it. You're different; all you can use is this Tenseigan."

Although he was a pure-blooded Otsutsuki, Toneri did not have a Karma seal on his body, nor had he ever been resurrected. He truly started from scratch, and the giant Tenseigan had also disintegrated, meaning that he had not inherited enough powerful strength.

To be able to compete with Kaede Tsukasa to this extent is already quite remarkable.

Kaede Tsukasa said slowly, "Your power is almost gone, isn't it? I won't let you escape so easily. After all, the more tools you have, the better. I need to capture an Otsutsuki to nurture my virus, and you're just right."
