Ninja World: I'm really a support-type ninja

Time cannot diminish beauty; even in her spirit form, Kaguya Otsutsuki is still breathtakingly beautiful.

Composing himself, Akira Hatake strode forward.

"Hamura...huh?!"

Akira Hatake's unusual footsteps alerted Kaguya Otsutsuki, but she subconsciously assumed it was Hamura Otsutsuki accompanying her on the moon.

But when she opened her eyes, she saw Akira Hatake's handsome face, and Kaguya Otsutsuki was clearly stunned for a moment.

However, Kaguya Otsutsuki quickly regained her senses, her white pupils filled with a dangerous aura.

"Those who trespass here, your only fate is death!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki floated straight up from the bed, standing in mid-air and looking down at Akira Hatake.

"Ha, are all Otsutsuki people so arrogant?"

"Hmm?!" Kaguya Otsutsuki couldn't help but glance at Akira Hatake again. "It seems you know my identity."

"Of course I know, otherwise I wouldn't have come to find you."

"Since you know this, then I'll accept your soul!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki had no time to communicate with Akira Hatake; her words contained nothing but killing intent and no other emotion.

That makes sense. Kaguya Otsutsuki had been sealed away for a thousand years, and the resentment she had accumulated in her heart was like a live volcano. When she encountered a stranger, she naturally wanted to vent it.

With her hand forming a claw, Kaguya Otsutsuki flashed to Akira Hatake's side, aiming straight for his face.

"Who gives prior notice before killing someone..."

Akira Hatake deflected Kaguya Otsutsuki's attack, and even managed a few sarcastic remarks during a gap in his defense.

"Kaguya Otsutsuki, you are the kind of person who has power but doesn't know how to use it. You are the epitome of wasting talent."

In Akira Hatake's eyes, Kaguya Otsutsuki's fighting skills were not even as good as a Chunin. When she fought, she relied entirely on her immense strength to bombard others relentlessly.

Within the sealed space of the Six Paths Seal, neither of them could use any abilities other than their soul power, and their fighting style became more straightforward and simple, relying solely on the most primitive fist and foot techniques.

Clearly, Kaguya Otsutsuki's rudimentary skills were no match for Akira Hatake.

"I won't bully the elderly. I'll handle you with one hand. If you lose, how about you grant me one request?"

"What if you lose?"

"I lost?" Akira Hatake's lips curled into a disdainful smile, but he still made a deal with Kaguya Otsutsuki.

"If I lose, you can certainly enjoy my soul to your heart's content, but you can also make a second choice."

"A second option? Ha..." Kaguya Ōtsutsuki scoffed. "What right do you have to talk to me about a second option!"

"Not very capable, but has a big temper."

Akira Hatake shook his head, giving up on continuing his conversation with Kaguya Otsutsuki. Instead, he put his left hand behind his back and waved his right hand at Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Kaguya Otsutsuki, who had been waiting impatiently, pounced again upon seeing this, her punches and kicks now much more powerful.

However, the seemingly fierce and rapid attacks were full of loopholes, and Akira Hatake easily countered many of Kaguya Otsutsuki's moves.

Just kidding. While Akira Hatake's physical skills may not be as good as some of his other abilities, that's only in comparison.

Akira Hatake, who can go toe-to-toe with Might Guy, is also second to none in terms of physical skills, and is more than capable of dealing with Kaguya Otsutsuki.

The two exchanged over a hundred blows, with Kaguya Otsutsuki constantly attacking and Akira Hatake defending, their expressions constantly shifting.

At first, Kaguya Otsutsuki was confident and seemed to have Akira Hatake completely under her control.

However, as time went on, Kaguya Otsutsuki's expression became more and more serious, while Akira Hatake remained the same as he had been at the beginning.

"You're no good, Kaguya Otsutsuki."

Akira Hatake then took a moment to mock, "Kaguya Otsutsuki, look at me, I'm standing right here, I haven't moved an inch."

Having deflected Kaguya Otsutsuki's whip kick, Akira Hatake also exerted his strength, knocking her back several steps.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Akira Hatake drew a circle with his left leg, leaving a not-so-standard circle under his foot.

"Kaguya Otsutsuki, if you force me out of this circle, I will surrender and be at your mercy."

"But if you can't do that, then how about you grant me one more request?"

"Crack!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki, unable to save face, angrily shouted at Akira Hatake and charged forward again.

"Then I'll take that as a yes."

Akira Hatake smiled slightly at Kaguya Otsutsuki, "Besides, continuing to fight like this isn't a solution. Let's set a five-minute time limit."

Kaguya Otsutsuki remained silent, but she had clearly brought her fighting skills to their peak.

Another round of fierce attacks ensued, but Akira Hatake remained standing firmly in place, his relaxed expression driving Kaguya Otsutsuki even more insane.

"I do not believe!!!"

With a sharp cry, Kaguya Otsutsuki went berserk, and her attacks on Akira Hatake gradually became chaotic.

"Kaguya Otsutsuki, it's time."

Akira Hatake's eyes narrowed, and he struck Kaguya Otsutsuki in the chest with one palm, sending her flying quite a distance.

However, since both of them are in a spirit form and their spirit powers are similar, it is not easy for Akira Hatake to cause any damage to Kaguya Otsutsuki.

but……

Akira Hatake scratched his right hand, a sense of déjà vu stirring his heart.

Suppressing the mixed feelings in his heart, Akira Hatake stepped out of the circle and into Kaguya Otsutsuki's world.

"Then... my first condition is to tell me the principle behind the 'wedge' mark, and the specific method to break it."

"How...how do you know about the 'Wedge' mark? Could it be that you..."

Kaguya Otsutsuki stopped attacking Akira Hatake. She wasn't stupid enough to keep fighting even though she knew she couldn't win.

With a quick glance, Kaguya Otsutsuki also had a plan in mind.

Although she couldn't defeat Akira Hatake, she could sense from his words that he had come here to "ask" her for help in resolving his doubts.

Since that's the case, it would be a real waste not to make good use of it.

“I never agreed to what you said before.” Kaguya Otsutsuki lay back down on the large bed. “Besides, I can agree and I can go back on my word. What can you do about it?”

"There's really nothing we can do to you."

Akira Hatake shrugged helplessly, but a sly glint flashed across his face. "But if I told you I could get you out of this hellhole, do you think you'd agree to two of my conditions?"

"Take me out of here?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki paused for a moment, then raised her hand to look at her arm.

Beneath her snow-white skin, including her arms and the rest of her body, were countless sealing patterns. Although they were not visible unless you looked closely, that did not mean the sealing patterns did not exist.

Because the main target of the Six Paths Seal here is Kaguya Otsutsuki, even if a powerful person can enter the Six Paths Seal through some means, it is basically impossible to take Kaguya Otsutsuki out.

Withdrawing her arm, Kaguya Otsutsuki looked up at Akira Hatake with suspicion, "You have that strength?"

"The difference in our soul power isn't that great, so do you think I have that kind of strength?"

When Akira Hatake asked her a question, Kaguya Otsutsuki was taken aback again before she began to seriously examine Akira Hatake.

After a moment, Kaguya Otsutsuki nodded almost imperceptibly. Just as Akira Hatake had said, although there was a difference between his soul power and hers, the difference was negligible.

Judging from Akira Hatake's current soul power, his strength has reached the threshold of the Six Paths level, so what Akira Hatake said is somewhat feasible.

"But I don't trust you."

“There’s nothing I can do about that, I don’t trust you either.” Akira Hatake spread his hands again. “But it’s okay if you don’t trust me. Between trust and freedom, what do you believe in more?”

"I……"

Kaguya Otsutsuki stared blankly at Akira Hatake, feeling quite tempted.

Akira Hatake spoke very frankly, and Kaguya Otsutsuki was even less certain whether what Akira Hatake said was true or false.

But Akira Hatake's second half of the sentence was also true; she had been trapped in the seal for too long, so long that she had almost forgotten who she was.

"The 'Wedge' mark is a unique possession ability of our Otsutsuki clan, and it can be said to have almost no weaknesses."

After a moment's thought, Kaguya Otsutsuki decided to take the gamble. With her lips slightly parted, she began to explain the principle of the "Karma" seal to Akira Hatake.

"However... the 'Wedge' mark is not without its weaknesses, because its most important component is..."

Chapter 348: Shall Kaguya Otsutsuki be punished?

In order to escape from the dark and hopeless Six Paths Seal, Kaguya Otsutsuki had no choice but to explain in detail the specific principles and weaknesses of the "Karma" seal to Akira Hatake.

To put it simply, although the "Wedge" mark looks very high-end, the essence of the "Wedge" mark is still Yin Release chakra.

However, the Yin Release chakra that makes up the "Karma" mark is of very high quality, just like the Black Zetsu that Kaguya Otsutsuki created with Yin Release chakra before she was sealed away.

However, the quality of the "Karma" mark is even higher than that of the Yin Release chakra that makes up Black Zetsu.

Moreover, not only does it contain extremely high-quality Yin Release chakra, but the "Karma" seal also contains the user's entire soul. Otherwise, without a soul, rebirth and possession would naturally be nonsense.

With the combined effect of extremely high-quality Yin Release chakra and the user's soul, the "Karma" seal is theoretically impossible to break from the outside.

To break the "Wedge" mark, it must be breached from the inside, which means directly attacking the divorce hidden within the user's "Wedge" mark space.

Indeed, there is a space inside the "wedge" mark where time stands still. No matter how much time passes outside, the soul of the user inside the "wedge" mark will not be disturbed.

In other words, members of the Otsutsuki clan who have used the "Wedge" mark can safely recover from the wounds to their souls within the mark's space. When the time is right, they can then possess the body of someone branded with the "Wedge" mark.

Listening to Kaguya Otsutsuki's story, Akira Hatake had a terrible headache.

Although Kaguya Otsutsuki mentioned the weakness of the "Karma" seal, it was as if she hadn't said anything at all.

If it can't be breached from the outside, how can the "wedge" mark be destroyed from the inside?

Does he intend to let his consciousness enter the "Kwak" mark and fight Otsutsuki Isshiki to the death?

Seeing Akira Hatake's distressed expression, Kaguya Otsutsuki curled the corners of her lips. "This is the principle and weakness of the 'Karma' mark. I've told you everything, so shouldn't you keep your promise?"

"You didn't say the whole thing."

Akira Hatake relaxed his furrowed brows and looked up at Kaguya Otsutsuki. "You've concealed the most crucial part."
