On the night of the Nine-Tails, I shattered the Tailed Beast Ball with a single punch.

However, for Ryujin Jakka with Bankai, a single slash was enough to wipe out the rain of black rods.

Even a black rod can't withstand such a high temperature.

If long-range ninjutsu bombardment is useless, then sword energy may not be effective either. So Nagasawa directly took Ryujin Jakka and charged towards Isshiki with terrifying speed, his body shining with dazzling golden light like the blazing sun in the sky.

Seeing that Nagasawa's sword possessed such terrifyingly high temperatures, even though his body was extremely powerful, Isshiki was unwilling to easily clash head-on with Nagasawa, and continuously summoned huge black cubes to smash towards Nagasawa.

Rumble!!!

Huge explosions continued to occur, and in just a few minutes of fighting, the terrain of the area was completely altered by the two men.

In some places, everything was burned away by intense flames, leaving only blackened scorched earth; in other places, there were huge cubes and the ground had collapsed severely.

Without a doubt, Isshiki was the strongest enemy Nagasawa had ever faced.

Although Kaguya in the dungeon is roughly equal in strength to Isshiki because she ate the fruit of the Divine Tree, Isshiki's combat skills far surpass Kaguya's.

Kaguya can only unleash seven-tenths of her full power, while Isshiki can use all of his. That's the difference between them.

Isshiki's expression grew increasingly serious; Nagasawa was proving to be more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.

He was just a native, yet he possessed such immense power.

"Burning Flame Blade - Rising Sun Blade!" Nagasawa seized the opportunity, unleashing a burst of chakra and spiritual power that was even stronger than before. He cleaved through all obstacles in his path and arrived in front of Isshiki.

Yishi's pupils contracted sharply. He tried to escape but it was too late. He could only unleash his power, channeling all his strength into his arm to try and block Yongze's attack.

However, Isshiki could actually withstand the terrifyingly high temperature of the Zankatana, which reached the core temperature of the sun. Isshiki's two arms were instantly engulfed by the flames that the blade could only compress to the extreme.

The terrifying pain contorted Isshiki's face.

Even though he could sense the terrifying power of the sword in Nagasawa's hand, after actually making contact, Isshiki realized that he had underestimated the sword, which looked like it had been burned.

Yishi can confidently say that even if a meteorite collides with his arm, it will be the meteorite that is destroyed, while his arm will be completely unharmed.

Their Otsutsuki bodies are extremely powerful; even without dodging, the so-called ninjutsu of the ninja world would hardly be able to harm a single hair on their heads.

But even such a powerful body was reduced to nothingness under the terrifying temperature of Ryujin Jakka.

Taking advantage of his weakness, Nagasawa swiftly stabbed Isshiki in the chest after burning Isshiki's arms.

Although the entire character of Isshiki was not painted in black and gray, Isshiki was transformed into a person with a broad mind, in the literal sense.

As expected of someone from the Otsutsuki clan, Isshiki did not die even though his arms were burned to nothingness and a large hole was opened in his chest. He just looked terrible.

Nagasawa swung his sword and knocked Isshiki to the ground. "It seems that the noble Otsutsuki are not so great after all."

He collapsed to the ground, covered in dust, and with the horrific wounds on his body, he looked extremely disheveled.

But in this situation, Yishiki unexpectedly burst into laughter.

"You will regret everything you've done." Itsuki looked at Nagasawa with hatred.

"If you had chosen to become a noble Otsutsuki, you would have had everything, but you not only refused, you also wanted to kill me."

"The power of the Otsutsuki clan is beyond your imagination. I am just a newcomer in the Otsutsuki clan, and my strength has just reached the god level. There are countless clan members who are stronger than me. We have not handed over the fruit of the Divine Tree for thousands of years. The clan must have guessed that something is wrong."

"Then the noble Otsutsuki will destroy your planet, along with you." Isshiki said with a loud laugh, as if he had already envisioned Nagasawa being killed by the Otsutsuki and the ninja world being destroyed.

Nagasawa raised an eyebrow and said, "You're quite the dreamer. You want me and my planet to be destroyed, but maybe the result will be the destruction of your Otsutsuki clan."

"You have no idea how great the Otsutsuki are." Isshiki sneered.

Destroying the Otsutsuki is laughable from the bottom of Isshiki's heart. It's something that many powerful forces in the universe couldn't do. You, a native, really think that way.

"Then let the great Otsutsuki die." Nagasawa didn't waste any more words with Isshiki and directly killed him.

That move is too dangerous.

After killing Isshiki, Nagasawa cleaned up the battlefield and then uprooted the Kara organization, along with Chakra Technology.

After completing everything, Nagasawa returned to Konoha.

Chapter 590 The Plan

"How should we deal with the Otsutsuki clan that might attack..." Nagasawa wrote these words on a piece of paper and began to think.

Isshiki's threatening words before his death confirmed Nagasawa's conjecture about the Otsutsuki clan: the Otsutsuki clan is very likely a dominant force in the cosmos, a powerful force even on a cosmic scale.

This was undoubtedly a behemoth that the ninja world, which had not yet entered the interstellar era, could not afford to offend.

The gap between the two sides was so large that any one of the Otsutsuki clan members had the ability to destroy the ninja world if Nagasawa didn't intervene.

“However, things aren’t that bad, and the ninja world is ‘unworthy’ of being a match for the Otsutsuki clan,” Nagasawa thought.

The Otsutsuki clan may not even know that the clan members they sent to the ninja world are dead. Even if they find out about this information through some means, they certainly wouldn't consider a civilization that hasn't entered the interstellar age as their opponent.

The gap between the two sides was too great. In the eyes of those Otsutsuki, the ninjas were probably no different from uncivilized monkeys. Why would they send strong people to them as their opponents?

The most likely scenario is that they would send some clan members who are stronger than ordinary Otsutsuki to the ninja world to plant the Divine Tree.

These are some inferences made by Nagasawa based on existing information.

However, since he did not know the specific strength of the Otsutsuki clan members, Nagasawa could not judge what kind of strength those Otsutsuki members who were stronger than ordinary Otsutsuki members actually possessed.

Currently, Nagasawa's Sage Mode and Shinigami Mode development is still a simple nested approach, and has not yet reached the point where one plus one is greater than two, making it a Sage/Shinigami Mode. Therefore, although he can easily defeat Isshiki, his strength is still within the Six Paths level.

The information revealed in Isshiki's last words was immense. In the Otsutsuki clan, or rather, in the starry sky, Nagasawa believed that the Six Paths level was equivalent to a god level.

Using the word "god" to describe this level of strength is quite appropriate. People at this level have a level of strength in reality that is similar to that of the gods in myths and legends.

However, after the God-level, which is the Six Paths level, it is unknown what realm Yongze is at now, or what level he belongs to in the universe.

Yongze filled a sheet of paper with writing, then immediately tore it up.

"We still don't have enough information," Nagasawa sighed.

If Isshiki's strength wasn't that great, and he was only at the level of Madara Uchiha, perhaps Nagasawa wouldn't have killed him directly, but instead imprisoned him and interrogated him about information about the Otsutsuki clan.

However, Isshiki is stronger than Kaguya, and in Konoha nowadays, apart from Nagasawa, only Guy with the Eight Gates can barely be considered a match for Isshiki; the rest are no match for him.

In this situation, to prevent any accidents from happening, Nagasawa naturally killed Ichishiki directly.

After all, Isshiki is from the Otsutsuki clan, so who knows if he might have some strange abilities that Isshiki doesn't know about.

Just like Nagasawa didn't know that Isshiki actually had research capabilities and had come up with so many cutting-edge technologies.

After thinking for a moment, Nagasawa used the Flying Thunder God Technique to go to a closed, secluded room, where the unexpected joy of his trip to the Land of Frost was kept.

Black Zetsu sensed the fluctuation of chakra and opened his eyes.

At this moment, Black Zetsu was in a terrible state, with black rods piercing through his limbs and a barrier sealing him around him.

Nagasawa originally went to investigate the Chakra Technology Company, but he didn't expect Black Zetsu to be at that base, so he captured him as well.

“Fujiwara Nagasawa!” Black Zetsu’s voice was hoarse, his face dark, and his eyes were fixed on Nagasawa, as if he wanted to see through everything about him.

If you were to ask who Black Zetsu hates the most right now, it wouldn't be the Six Paths brothers who sealed his mother, but rather Eizawa, who repeatedly thwarted his plans and caused his millennia-long scheme to fail.

It was as if Nagasawa knew everything—his existence, his plans, everything that should have remained a secret.

His understanding of Nagasawa was based solely on information circulating outside.

Now, he has been captured alive by Nagasawa, so Nagasawa has successfully become the person Black Zetsu hates the most, without exception.

"I didn't expect you to be with Otsutsuki Isshiki. It saves me some trouble now," Nagasawa chuckled.

"Who exactly are you?" Hei Jue asked, puzzled.

Black Zetsu still has many questions about Nagasawa. It's not that he hasn't investigated Nagasawa; he's just an ordinary ninja.

However, the strength that Nagasawa displayed and the information he knew were all extraordinary, which is very strange.

"Could you also be a member of the Otsutsuki clan?" Black Zetsu wondered, his imagination running wild.

The strength and intelligence that Nagasawa possessed were beyond what a Konoha ninja should have. Black Zetsu could only guess that Nagasawa had been replaced by someone from the Otsutsuki clan. Perhaps there really was an ordinary ninja named Fujiwara Nagasawa.

When Nagasawa and Isshiki were fighting, the auras they unleashed horrified Black Zetsu.

He originally thought that as long as Kaguya was resurrected, everything would be fine. He believed that Kaguya could suppress everything in this era without the Six Paths Brothers.

However, the fight between the two was so small that it opened Black Zetsu's eyes to how strong a person could be.

Even if Kaguya were to be resurrected, Black Zetsu wouldn't dare say that Kaguya could definitely defeat either of them.

Given Nagasawa's immense strength, Black Zetsu naturally assumed that Nagasawa wasn't from the ninja world, but rather a member of the Otsutsuki clan or some other alien.

“I’m a true ninja from the ninja world,” Nagasawa said with a smile.

Hei Jue did not believe it, but he did not refute Nagasawa's words either.

"Tell me everything you know about the Otsutsuki clan," Nagasawa said calmly.

"Will you let me go if I tell you?" Black Zetsu asked.

Although Black Zetsu didn't know much about the Otsutsuki clan, that didn't stop him from testing whether Nagasawa would leave him a way out.

"Guess?" Nagasawa replied with a smile, without giving Black Zetsu a definite answer.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

"I don't know much about the so-called Otsutsuki clan. Before I met Otsutsuki Isshiki, I didn't even have a concept of the Otsutsuki clan..." Black Zetsu was silent for a moment, then spoke up and told him all the information he knew.

Black Zetsu didn't try to fool Nagasawa with false information; instead, he told her everything he knew.

Because Black Zetsu had lost to Nagasawa far too many times, he wasn't confident he could fool Nagasawa.

Yongze nodded slightly, not too disappointed.

After all, Black Zetsu was created when Kaguya was sealed away, so it's normal that he didn't know anything about the Otsutsuki clan.

If Black Zetsu could rattle off all sorts of information about the Otsutsuki clan, then Nagasawa would suspect that Black Zetsu was trying to fool him.

"If I wanted to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki, what do you think I should do?" Nagasawa Yuuyu asked.

Black Zetsu stared wide-eyed at Nagasawa in disbelief, as if he had heard something extremely shocking.

Chapter 591 Kaguya's Resurrection

Black Zetsu looked at Nagasawa with suspicion, his distrust practically written all over his face.

In Black Zetsu's mind, Nagasawa Nagasawa repeatedly thwarted his plans and was arguably the biggest obstacle to his resurrection of his mother.

So when Nagasawa said he wanted to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki, Black Zetsu instinctively felt that Nagasawa was deceiving him and plotting something.
