Naruto and Ōtsutsuki Urashiki appeared in the void at the same instant!
At the moment of arrival, Naruto immediately split his actions with extreme precision. He retained nearly a hundred shadow clones, sending them rushing forward along an unblocked direction to continue confusing the enemy's perception. The remaining shadow clones dispersed in all directions, quietly gathering ambient chakra from the surrounding star field to replenish his reserves.
Ōtsutsuki Watanabe stared at the two figures in front of him, his eyes narrowing sharply. From pure chakra perception alone, these two were completely different from the clones they had encountered before.
These were real bodies.
Ōtsutsuki Yukawa reacted instantly, pressing the positioning seal on his arm and urgently transmitting the coordinates to the other teams.
Ōtsutsuki Nishino clenched his teeth, his face pale.
"What do we do? This isn't a clone!"
Ōtsutsuki Watanabe snorted coldly, forcing down the unease in his heart.
"What are you afraid of? He's just a low-level creature. Don't panic!"
As he spoke, Watanabe raised his voice and cursed openly:
"Urashiki, you traitor! You actually dared to betray the Ōtsutsuki clan. We were ordered to come and kill you!"
Urashiki smiled faintly, his expression calm and amused.
"Kill me? Hahaha… you should be worrying about yourselves."
Nishino hesitated for a moment, then spoke anxiously:
"Watanabe, Yukawa, we can't fight them head-on. The three of us aren't enough. You know very well—they killed Momoshiki and the others and absorbed their power. How could the three of us possibly be their match?"
After Nishino said this, even Watanabe, who had been acting tough, felt a chill creep up his spine.
When ten of them were together, he was arrogant beyond measure. But now, separated like this, Nishino's words were undeniably reasonable.
Yukawa said in a low voice, "We should retreat. We can't win this."
Watanabe frowned deeply.
"If we retreat now, they'll escape. What if the captain asks us about it later?"
Nishino hesitated.
"But—"
Watanabe interrupted sharply, his tone firm.
"Keep sending the location. Keep sending it nonstop. They'll notice sooner or later! And in this situation, do you really think the three of us can run away safely? Instead of that, we might as well fight and take them down!"
Before the argument could continue—
Naruto moved.
"Yin–Yang Release: Rasengan Barrage!"
Naruto burst forward, his hands already forming Rasengan after Rasengan in rapid succession. The compressed chakra spheres howled as they spun, tearing through space with terrifying pressure.
Yukawa, who had been watching closely, shouted nervously,
"Here he comes!"
Nishino gritted his teeth.
"Damn it… I'm going in!"
The three Ōtsutsuki reacted instantly, each unleashing defensive techniques and counterattacks. One after another, they barely managed to block Naruto's Rasengan barrage, the shockwaves rippling violently through the void.
Ōtsutsuki Watanabe did not hesitate any longer. He directly took out a chakra pill, swallowed it, and instantly activated his strongest form.
Crack—!
Horns erupted from his head, thick and twisted, his body swelling with violent chakra like a raging demon.
"Nishino! Yukawa!" Watanabe roared.
"Activate your strongest forms! Don't hold back!"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
Both Nishino and Yukawa took out their own chakra pills, swallowed them, and released their full power. Their bodies transformed rapidly, horns sprouting, muscles bulging, and terrifying chakra surging outward.
Naruto watched all of this expressionlessly.
He already knew this form.
Just like Momoshiki—this was the Ōtsutsuki clan's ultimate combat posture. By swallowing all chakra pills at once, they forcibly entered a berserk state, somewhat similar to a Jinchūriki releasing a tailed beast transformation.
Naruto snorted coldly and brought his palms together.
He didn't need pills.
His bloodline was already stronger.
At this moment, the power flowing through Naruto surpassed that of even the main family Ōtsutsuki before him.
"Come," Naruto murmured softly, his eyes burning with hunger.
"My fruits."
His gaze locked onto the three Ōtsutsuki before him, desire flashing unhidden in his eyes.
Ōtsutsuki Watanabe's eyelids twitched violently.
Only now did he truly understand the terror of the so-called "low-level creature" standing before him. This man… was treating the Ōtsutsuki clan as nourishment.
As a member of the main family, Watanabe knew this feeling all too well. In desperate situations, the main family would also sacrifice branch family members, absorbing their chakra without hesitation.
"Fight!" Watanabe roared.
He attacked first, the Rinnegan embedded in his palm opening wide. A massive black chakra sphere condensed instantly and blasted straight toward Naruto.
Naruto snorted disdainfully. Truth-Seeking Orbs unfolded behind him, launching one after another like black meteors.
"You're far behind me when it comes to chakra balls."
The Truth-Seeking Orbs collided with Watanabe's palm technique, neutralizing it completely. In the next instant, Naruto's Rasengan smashed forward.
Boom—!!!
A violent explosion erupted, distorting space itself.
Ōtsutsuki Yukawa and Ōtsutsuki Nishino charged directly into the center of the explosion, while Watanabe was blasted backward by the shockwave.
"Die!"
Yukawa and Nishino each drew massive red chakra blades from behind their backs and slashed at Naruto from both sides simultaneously.
But—
Clang!
Their blades stopped dead.
"What?!"
"How is this possible?!"
The two shouted in shock.
As the smoke cleared, they finally saw the truth.
The Truth-Seeking Orbs had reshaped themselves into a pair of black gloves, coating Naruto's hands. With absolute ease, Naruto had grabbed both red chakra blades barehanded.
"Heh… this trick again?" Naruto grinned, sharp fangs visible.
"I'm already bored of it."
His eyes burned as he stared at the two Ōtsutsuki before him.
"Such strong bloodline power…"
"I want it."
Crack—!
Naruto crushed the red chakra blades in his hands like brittle glass.
Ōtsutsuki Nishino and Ōtsutsuki Yukawa's eyes widened in disbelief.
In the next instant, Naruto's figure blurred. Like a phantom, his hands shot out and clamped directly around their throats.
"Good… good!" Naruto laughed excitedly.
At the same time, sealing formulas spread rapidly from Naruto's palms, crawling across Nishino and Yukawa's bodies in an instant.
"Let me go!"
"Damn you, low-level creature!"
Naruto tilted his head, eyes shining with anticipation.
"Ah—!"
"Ah—!"
Naruto's grip tightened, and he began absorbing directly.
Pure, violent Ōtsutsuki chakra surged into his body.
Not far away, Ōtsutsuki Watanabe, who had been blasted backward, witnessed the scene and turned pale. Without hesitation, he fled at full speed, burning his own chakra recklessly.
Just as he was about to escape—
Whoosh!
A red fishing line flashed through the darkness, a barbed hook snapping toward him at lightning speed.
Watanabe barely dodged in time, the hook grazing past him and missing his core chakra.
"That was close…!"
Cold sweat drenched his back.
Urashiki emerged from the shadows, smiling calmly as he looked at Watanabe.
At that moment, Watanabe understood.
If he stayed—he would die.
Without another word, he fled again, pushing his body beyond its limits.
Urashiki watched him leave, then glanced back at Naruto, who was still absorbing chakra.
He sighed softly.
"So… you said we'd split it evenly," Urashiki muttered.
"But you went straight for absorption this time."
Then he licked his lips.
"Forget it. There are still eight left. I'll just be more proactive later."
The taste of chakra… was intoxicating.
——————————
Far away.
Ōtsutsuki Watanabe fled desperately, burning chakra nonstop, pushing his body until it screamed in protest. Finally, after a long and frantic escape, he encountered Ōtsutsuki Yamamoto's group.
"Yamamoto—!!!"
Watanabe shouted, then collapsed unconscious from complete chakra exhaustion.
Yamamoto and the others, having received the distress signal, rushed over and caught him.
Ōtsutsuki Ono checked Watanabe's condition and frowned.
"His chakra is completely depleted!"
Ōtsutsuki Yamamoto's expression darkened.
"He must have encountered the traitor Urashiki."
Ōtsutsuki Kashiwazaki asked nervously,
"Then… where are Nishino and Yukawa?"
The three looked around.
No response.
No trace.
Yamamoto sighed heavily.
"Save him first."
He took out a chakra pill and fed it to Watanabe.
The moment the pill dissolved, Watanabe's body trembled violently. His injuries healed rapidly, and his consciousness returned.
As soon as he woke, he grabbed Yamamoto in panic.
"Quick! Go back—save Nishino and Yukawa!"
"It's too late… they'll die!!!"
