I was broadcast live while taking the Chunin Exam!

He had harvested many fruits from the Divine Tree before and witnessed the destruction of countless planets. Naturally, there were some special people among them, but even those humans who were lucky enough to obtain the fruits of the Divine Tree were no match for him.

"Damn it!" Otsutsuki Kin's eyes flashed. He hadn't expected that even if he and Otsutsuki Koto joined forces, they would still be no match for their opponent. Although he could see that his opponent was struggling desperately, the long battle made him increasingly uncertain.

"Damn inferior creature!" Otsutsuki Kin cursed under his breath, trying to jump to a farther place, but unexpectedly, he didn't move at all when he stood still.

"Huh! What's going on?" This was the first time that Otsutsuki Kin felt panic. Jumping through space was his ability, but in all these years, he had never been in a situation like this where he couldn't use his ability at all!

"What! Did you find that you can't use your spatial abilities anymore!" A smile appeared on Kitahara Kaede's face, and then he kicked down hard.

"Boom!" A deep crater appeared in the ground.

Before Otsutsuki Kin could even get up, Kitahara Kaede had already charged down: "I knew you had spatial abilities all along, otherwise do you think I would have wasted so much effort fighting you?"

"Damn it!" Otsutsuki Kin roared as the opponent's palm landed on his body. Although he felt that the power was not as strong as he had imagined, it was still able to cause him substantial damage every time.

In just a short while, Otsutsuki Kin's body was covered in blood.

"Stop!" The voice of Otsutsuki Koto appeared just in time, and the light of the star pattern spread out, instantly enveloping them.

"You think you can just stop when I tell you to?" Kitahara Kaede didn't retreat but instead moved forward, his palms roaming back and forth across Otsutsuki Kin's body. The moment Otsutsuki Koto's power arrived, he continuously compressed the chakra in his hands, and a black dot was directly slapped into Otsutsuki Kin's body.

"Boom!" Otsutsuki Kin's body exploded, while Otsutsuki Koto's power struck Kitahara Kaede with equal force.

"Boom!" The explosion seemed to trigger a chain reaction. Earth and rocks flew everywhere, cracks appeared in the ground, lava poured in, and the whole world was shrouded in thick smoke, as if endless collapse was imminent.

"Crack! Crack!" A huge explosion sound rang out, and by then the planet was already in ruins.

Two figures soared into the sky.

The next moment! As the two faced off, Kitahara Kaede's expression changed slightly, and a trickle of blood flowed from his mouth.

"Pah!" He spat out some blood and felt much better.

On the other side, Koto Otsutsuki's face was solemn and a little fearful, and behind him was Kin Otsutsuki, who couldn't even stand up.

Otsutsuki Kin's face was extremely pale, and the blood covering his body had stained Otsutsuki Koto's clothes a bright red color.

"Stop! Kitahara Kaede! We surrender!" Otsutsuki Koto shouted. She had been a prisoner of the enemy before, so surrendering now was a no-brainer for her.

As for dealing with Kitahara Kaede before, who doesn't yearn for freedom? Making some small mistakes for the sake of freedom won't be held accountable, especially since it's just an insignificant mistake given her powerful strength.

"You want to admit defeat now? It's too late!" Kitahara Kaede walked towards the two of them.

Originally, I had some plans in mind about keeping Otsutsuki Koto, but looking at her attitude towards Otsutsuki, it was clear that there was too much uncertainty in the future. For the sake of peace in the Ninja 3.6 world and my own comfort, it would be better to eliminate her first.

"No! You can't do this!" Fear appeared in Koto Ōtsutsuki's eyes, and she kept backing away.

"Snap!" Just then, Kitahara Kaede witnessed a scene that shocked him. He saw Otsutsuki Kin, who was behind Otsutsuki Koto, suddenly bite down on Otsutsuki Koto's neck, and blood flowed down instantly.

"Ah!" Koto Otsutsuki screamed and slammed his hand backward, but stopped abruptly in mid-air.

Then mysterious symbols began to appear on his forehead and spread across his body.

"Wait!" Kitahara Kaede stared in shock.

"What's going on! This wasn't on Koto Otsutsuki before!"

Chapter 558 Immense Damage

"No! It's not, or rather, it's not entirely a wedge!"

"Was it left behind when you helped Koto Otsutsuki break the seal on her body before?"

Just as Kitahara Kaede was pondering, Otsutsuki Kin's body began to swell, and Otsutsuki Koto's power flowed continuously towards him, as if a guardian were sacrificing himself.

"Is it these strange marks that make her unable to resist you?"

"Too bad! You don't have that much time." As he spoke, Kitahara Kaede's hand was already slicing downwards. Chakra, like a spiral shuriken, spun continuously at his fingertips, slicing down like a kunai.

"Ah!" Otsutsuki Kin let out a scream, a voice that seemed not to be human, and his appearance at this moment was more like that of the Eight-Tails Minotaur.

"Damn it! If that's how it is!" As he spoke, Otsutsuki Kin's body began to change.

"No! Don't!" Fear appeared on Koto's face, and her body trembled uncontrollably. Despite having the power within her, she couldn't even make a single movement.

"Damn inferior creatures, just wait until the Otsutsuki clan wipes you all out!"

"Die! Die together!" Otsutsuki Kin's voice rang out, filled with boundless rage instead of fear. Then, his body suddenly shrank and exploded.

"Earth Release! Earth Wall Technique!" Kitahara Kaede flicked his hand, and the surrounding rocks suddenly changed, forming an encirclement around him. His body then quickly darted backward.

"Save me!" Koto Otsutsuki looked at Kaede Kitahara and stretched out his palm with difficulty.

However, Kitahara Kaede only glanced at the other party before his body began to move rapidly, even tearing through space to leap.

All of this happened in a very short time. Then, a huge amount of energy was released, and everything around became chaotic. Even Kitahara Kaede suddenly appeared in mid-air. Space was disturbed, and it was no longer possible to transfer as usual.

Fortunately, he was quick enough that his next move was already visible in space, with a surge of energy pouring out and swirling behind him.

The planet, which had just looked like a sphere, was now a quarter of its original size destroyed. Not only that, but rocks were also constantly being shot into space from around him.

"Is that so?" Kitahara Kaede began to ponder: "It seems that the Otsutsuki clan is more troublesome than I thought. Those Karma-like marks from before, if he wasn't mistaken, seemed to have a special power on them, which felt somewhat similar to Itachi's Order."

"No wonder Koto Otsutsuki made that choice. She probably didn't even realize that she had been controlled by the other party. If that's the case, is the guardian of the Otsutsuki clan also for the same reason?" Kitahara Kaede pondered.

"Never mind, the problem here is finally solved. Let's clean up the traces around here according to the original plan. The current ninja world is still too weak against the Otsutsuki clan!" Kitahara Kaede thought to himself.

Afterwards, he glanced at the planet in front of him. Although it was a dead planet and much more fragile than the ninja world, such damage would still severely weaken the ninja world if it occurred.

The next moment, Kitahara Kaede's figure suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already traveling through the starry sky. He was going to deal with the traces of humanity, the traces of battle, and some other things he had left behind.

"Oh right! That Otsutsuki came from this side. Just in case, let's clean it up too!" Kitahara Kaede thought to himself, then quickly passed by!

An hour later! Kitahara Kaede's face turned extremely ugly. He was on an uninhabited planet, and traces of human destruction could be clearly seen around the planet.

The crisscrossing ravines clearly showed the handiwork of Otsutsuki Kin, but that wasn't the most striking thing. What was most eye-catching was the unique power beside them.

"Damn it! It wasn't just one Otsutsuki! There were at least two!"

Kitahara Kaede closed his eyes slightly, sensing the remaining power around him, and then his figure flickered continuously as he traveled into the depths of the universe.

"Damn it! We've gone way too far! Damn it, I should have known better than to linger there for so long." Kitahara Kaede's face remained grim for a while before he returned to the planet he had been on before.

His expression had calmed down by now, and he sensed the surging power: "Judging from their strength, the two are about the same. If it were just one of them, there shouldn't be much of a problem, but it's still better to be careful. Moreover, once the ninja world is exposed, trouble will follow one after another. The most urgent task is to improve the strength of the ninja world."

"No wonder the Otsutsuki had that expression before he died. It seems he knew all along that these people would return to the Otsutsuki's ancestral land. Judging from that expression, the next one won't be a simple Otsutsuki." Kitahara Kaede pondered for a long time, figuring out the recent events, and then rushed back to the location of the ninja world.

Soon the ninja world reappeared before Kitahara Kaede's eyes.

[Observing Kitahara Kaede? (^_-) Small Group]

[Tobirama Senju]: "The time has finally come again. I wonder how that Uchiha brat is doing, and how he was dealt with."

[Big Pillar Silly]: "Beiyuan Feng shouldn't make things difficult for him, right?"

【Thousand Hands Door 487】: "Brother, you're overthinking it. That kid is a scoundrel."

[Big Pillar Silly]: "I have a feeling that Kitahara Kaede won't let such a thug go."

Tobirama Senju: "Uh!"

[Honest Tomoe]: "Huh? Is this the ninja world? Weren't we supposed to go outside to erase the traces? Is it all over so quickly?"

[Konoha Dance King]: "It seems so. It shouldn't take long to erase some traces."

[Tobirama Senju]: "Wait a minute! Look at all these people from the ninja world, and they all look so nervous?"

[Big Pillar Silly]: "Has something happened? Everyone seems so tense, Kakashina! What happened?"

[Kidna with Kidney Deficiency]: "First Hokage, it's like this, Naruto and the others brought back some information!"

Kakashi then explained what had happened in the group chat.

[Big Pillar, Silly]: "What! The Otsutsuki clan! Are they the same alien race we talked about before? How many of them are there?"

[Konoha Dancing King]: "Hashirama, you don't need to be so nervous. Judging from Kitahara Kaede's appearance, he must have already solved it. Besides, even if he hadn't solved it, what help could you possibly be in your current state?"

What happened in Chapter 559?

[Big Pillar, Silly]: "Damn it, I really want a body! And now I can only watch from the sidelines!" Hashirama said in a frantic voice.

[Tobirama Senju]: "Brother, don't interrupt. Kitahara Kaede seems to have something important to say!"

"Kitahara-kun! How did it go? Has the matter been resolved?" Naruto rushed up and asked, his eyes already looking behind Kitahara Kaede.

"The enemy has been eliminated, but the matter is probably not yet resolved!" Kitahara Kaede said with a grim expression.

"Killed? Not resolved?" Naruto looked puzzled, clearly not understanding Kitahara Kaede's words.

“That’s right! We’ll discuss the details when we get back. Right now, our top priority is to build the arena. Not only that, we also need to bring together the elites of the ninja world,” Kitahara Kaede said.

"Establish a fighting arena and gather the elites of the ninja world!" Itachi Uchiha's face showed a thoughtful expression.

"What's going on? Is some kind of war about to break out? But the ninja world is peaceful right now."

"Let's assign the tasks first. All the remaining Kage-level characters, come with me. There's something I need to tell you," Kitahara Kaede said.

Soon everyone appeared in a huge conference room.

The tables around him were occupied by prominent figures, including the legendary "50/50" Copy Ninja. He didn't even have a seat and could only stand to the side with a solemn expression on his face.

"Everyone knows what happened this time, right? I won't say anything else, just this one point: there wasn't just one Otsutsuki who came this time; the other one has already returned to their ancestral land!"

"Otsutsuki! How far is their ancestral land from us?" the Mizukage beside him asked anxiously.

"What about their combat strength? I heard Naruto say they were very powerful before, but how strong exactly?" Jiraiya immediately asked.

"His combat power is at least above the Kage level, but he lacks combat experience. Overall, he is still at the peak of the Kage level. Those of you should try not to deal with him alone."

"As for the number of people, we don't know yet, and we're not sure how far away their ancestral land is either. However, given the effects of space-time ninjutsu, we believe it won't take them too long to get here."

“I’ve already manipulated the spacetime around us, so the enemy can’t land directly on our side,” Kitahara Kaede said.

"Is that so? They really are a formidable enemy, but we have too little information right now." Itachi Uchiha began to ponder.

"Alright, that's the situation. In order to deal with the upcoming crisis, I suggest that the arena be built as soon as possible, and all experts above the Kage level should go there to train and increase their strength as quickly as possible."

"No! We can't all go in. Some of us have to stay behind, so we can have a warning in case the enemy comes," Itachi Uchiha immediately said.

“No problem, Itachi. Your strength has already surpassed Kage level, and you have grasped a portion of the Order. You'll have to put more effort into this aspect,” Kitahara Kaede said.

“Hmm, no problem. But, Kitahara-kun, does that mean you’re not planning to participate in this battle?” Itachi Uchiha asked immediately, and everyone looked over.

"The arena isn't significantly improving my strength. I need to find a way to quickly enhance everyone's abilities, so I'll leave things here to you guys for now," Kitahara Kaede said, looking around.

"Rapidly increase strength? How is that possible!" someone nearby questioned.

"You mean! That thing?" Itachi Uchiha suddenly said. He remembered the strange marks he had seen in the chaos before, and it was those marks that had allowed him to reach his current level.

“That’s right, but the previous mark has already disappeared. This thing is very precious, and I can only do my best to find it. But once we find it, our strength will increase significantly,” Kitahara Kaede said.

"That kind of thing! Kitahara-kun, can you still find it?!" Itachi Uchiha immediately asked, as he clearly sensed the enhancement brought by that mark.

“I’m not sure either, so we need to be prepared for both possibilities and work together! I’ll leave the rest to you,” Kitahara Kaede said.

He then looked around and saw that everyone had a thoughtful expression on their faces. In a flash, he appeared outside and then made several marks on his hands.

"Shadow Clone Technique!" Several Wood Release clones appeared behind him.

"Alright, any more words might affect our strength, and it could even be bad if we encounter an Otsutsuki!"

"Go ahead, I've left it to you!" Kitahara Kaede said, looking at the clone beside him.

"Don't worry!" The clones waved lazily, then ran off in all directions, disappearing in no time.

"It feels a bit unreliable. Is this really my clone?" Kitahara Kaede shook his head helplessly.

Then, his figure quickly passed through the ninja world. The shortcomings of both the method of finding marks to improve everyone and the arena were very obvious. Either the probability was too low, or the improvement was not fast.

Therefore, Kitahara Kaede did not place all his hopes on these things, but instead had other plans!

Soon! The Land of Waves!

I really miss it. It was here that I met Mei Terumi and she took Zabuza away. At that time, I also subtly realized that things were starting to change. Now, when I think about it, it feels like it happened yesterday.

As he walked forward, the Land of Waves seemed much more peaceful now, and his purpose in coming here was simple.

In his memory, there would be many wealthy people here who would use ninjas with bloodline limits to fight in arenas, treating them like livestock—no, not even livestock, but just for pure entertainment and money, throwing those ninjas with bloodline limits into the arena to fight.

Back then, when we arrived here, we took down Kado directly. Now, (Ma Qian Zhao) sees that the bridge is much busier, and the surrounding economy has also become more prosperous.

The crowds came and went in a constant stream.

Hoping to find some clues, Kitahara Kaede thought to himself as he walked forward.

"Hey kid, I knew you had other ideas. You wanted to use your clone to explore the outside world, but what you really wanted to do here was stay here, right?" Blackie's voice suddenly appeared.

Kitahara Kaede showed no surprise: "Of course, the two paths mentioned before both seem possible, but the hope is slim. But here, as long as we find a sufficient number of bloodline limits, we can definitely greatly increase our power."
