Naruto: From Fake to Real, Deceiving the Ninja World

Chapter 574 Momoshiki being treated as food

Unaware of the existence of Otsutsuki Shibakai, the two instinctively thought of the owner of this underground palace.

Otsutsuki cloud style.

Could the being inside that "coffin" be none other than Otsutsuki Kumoshiki himself?

That Ōtsutsuki Kumoshiki, who never appeared from beginning to end, yet seemed to constantly cast his gaze from the shadows of history—

Could he have died deep within this underground palace, leaving behind only his strangely unique corpse, destroyed, or even—

Was it simply sleeping here until it was killed today?

This guess sent a chill down the spines of both Jiraiya and his companion.

But now is clearly not the time to delve into it.

Jiraiya composed himself, suppressing the doubts in his mind, and glanced at the Allied Shinobi who were still lost in their fascination.

Some of them had already walked more than ten steps away, while others walked with their heads tilted back and mouths wide open, waiting for the golden liquid to drip into their mouths.

His expression was greedy and devout, like an empty shell whose soul had been ripped out.

"We can't wait any longer." Jiraiya swiftly formed hand seals. "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"

Bang!Bang!Bang!

As the Sage Chakra surged from his body, white smoke exploded behind him one after another, and dozens of shadow clones appeared.

Without needing any further instructions, they instantly transformed into streaks of light upon appearing, scattering in all directions and rushing towards the mindless Allied Ninjas.

One of the shadow clones flew past Hyuga Aoi from behind, instantly extending its palm and gently patting her back, a gentle stream of chakra flowing into her body through its palm.

Hinata Aoi's body trembled slightly, and her empty pupils rippled like water rippled after a pebble was thrown in.

"Um?"

The "wonderful" taste disappeared, and Hinata Aoi blinked, her gaze gradually regaining focus as she broke free from the silent intoxication she had just experienced.

In the instant she regained consciousness, her eyes reflected the boy who had just appeared in her hallucination in the distance.

Standing amidst the golden rain of blood, his robes fluttered gently in the breeze, his face as indifferent as ever, even bordering on cold.

A little bit————

It doesn't really look like him.

Above him, Otsutsuki Isshiki hovered in mid-air, his once cold and arrogant face now twisted to the extreme, ferocious and furious.

"you----"

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki stared intently at Hyuga Kumokawa, his voice hoarse, each word trembling with suppressed killing intent: "Damn it!"

hum! !

The moment he finished speaking, the space behind him began to distort, forming an ever-expanding vortex.

The next moment, under everyone's gaze—

boom!

boom!

Two withered, enormous hands suddenly emerged from the spatial vortex, their fingers spread wide, gripping the two sides of the vortex tightly.

The fingers, dry and thick, tore forcefully to both sides, forcibly opening and expanding the spatial vortex. Then, the body of a colossal creature struggled and gradually crawled out of the vortex.

A huge, ferocious, one-eyed head emerged from it. The single eye slowly rotated, its pupil reflecting the tiny crowd below, radiating a terrifying sense of oppression.

"The Ten-Tails?!"

Once they regained consciousness, Hinata Aoi and the others stared in disbelief at the monstrous, enormous one-eyed creature, their pupils shrinking sharply.

How is that possible?

Isn't the Ten-Tails inside Nagato right now? How did it end up here?

"No, that's not right."

Tsunade's gaze was fixed on the enormous creature, keenly noticing the differences between it and the Ten-Tails sealed inside Nagato's body.

body shape.

This ten-tailed fox is noticeably smaller than the previous one.

Although it was still enormous, compared to the complete ten-tailed tiger, it was like the difference between a tiger cub and an adult tiger.

A terrifying guess instantly formed in her mind.

That is————

A second ten-tailed fox?

That's Isshiki Otsutsuki's own Ten-Tails?!

Tsunade was right. The space-time portal opened by Isshiki Otsutsuki was connected to the very place he used to seal and bind the Ten-Tails' larva.

boom!

The Ten-Tails broke free from the spatial vortex and crashed to the ground.

The heavy body crashed down, causing the entire underground palace to tremble violently. Stone fragments fell, and spiderweb-like cracks spread across the ground.

However, the enormous creature did not attack Hyuga Kumokawa, who was not far away, nor did it regard the Allied Shinobi Forces ninjas as enemies.

It raised its one-eyed head, and within its enormous eye lay resentment and anger accumulated over thousands of years.

It opened its enormous maw, filled with fangs, and roared deafeningly at Isshiki Otsutsuki, who had imprisoned it for over a thousand years: "Roar!!"

There was not a trace of reverence for Yi Shi in that roar, only naked hatred that wanted to tear him apart!

Without a doubt, the person it hates most at this moment is Otsutsuki Isshiki, who has imprisoned it for thousands of years, used it as a "power bank," and constantly drained its chakra.

The Ten-Tails and the Otsutsuki clan were never in a subordinate relationship.

They were in a relationship of mutual devouring.

While the Otsutsuki clan used the Ten-Tails as a tool, the Ten-Tails also used the Otsutsuki clan as food. Only by consuming members of the Otsutsuki clan could the Ten-Tails become the Divine Tree.

Whether it's merging with the Ten-Tails like Kaguya Otsutsuki, or becoming a Ten-Tails Jinchuriki like Obito in the original story and Orochimaru and Nagato today—

Without a doubt, they will all be assimilated and resisted by the Ten-Tails.

Without the power to suppress the Ten-Tails, it would not only fail to be an asset but would also become a burden.

Even if someone truly possessed that strength, no one could guarantee that they could maintain their peak condition and continuously suppress the Ten-Tails.

This is also why most members of the Otsutsuki clan, including Isshiki, have always treated the Ten-Tails merely as a "chakra charger."

And it's only because they eat the chakra fruit that grows from it.

But at this moment, Yi Shi was no longer afraid of anything.

He hovered in the air, looking down at the Ten-Tails roaring at him, and at Hyuga Kumokawa standing in the golden blood rain with an indifferent expression.

Under the influence of that golden blood rain, his eyes gradually went mad, and the strings of his reason snapped one by one.

He only wanted to deal with Hyuga Kumokawa, this guy who seemed to be the "vessel" of Otsutsuki Kumoshiki, this lowly, damned human—

Kill them completely!

For this, no matter the cost!

hum!

Otsutsuki Isshiki stared intently at Hyuga Kumokawa, his bloodshot eyes filled with pure killing intent.

His right hand formed a claw and suddenly reached out to his side, grabbing into the spacetime vortex that appeared beside him with a buzzing sound.

His arm plunged into that distorted space, as if grasping something, and then—

He pulled it out abruptly.

"Ha!"

What appeared in his hand was a disheveled figure.

The man was covered in blood, weak, and his long white hair was disheveled and draped over his shoulders.

It was Momoshiki Otsutsuki, who had been severely injured by Nagato, Naruto, and Sasuke.

He was being held tightly by the neck, lifted into the air like a poultry waiting to be slaughtered, and even his struggles seemed futile.

Below, the roar of the Ten-Tails larva was deafening. Momoshiki saw the enormous creature, struggled to turn his eyes, and also saw the crazed profile of Isshiki Otsutsuki.

In an instant, he guessed what Itsuki was going to do.
