Chapter 196 – Helplessness of a "God"
> "Something's off…"
In the skies above the desert, Ōtsutsuki Urashiki narrowed his eyes and murmured to himself, barely suppressing the unease creeping into his heart.
> "I couldn't even see how Uchiha Yuta attacked... How is his taijutsu this strong?"
As a member of the Ōtsutsuki clan, both Urashiki and Kinshiki were considered top-tier taijutsu users even among celestial beings. But now, the Fifth Hokage—Uchiha Yuta, a mere "mortal," had completely outclassed Kinshiki in close combat.
> It shouldn't be possible…
---
> "Damn it!"
A loud roar suddenly echoed from the ground below.
Ōtsutsuki Kinshiki, bruised and battered, clawed his way out of the massive crater he'd been pounded into. His face twisted with rage.
> "You filthy Earthling! You'll pay for this humiliation!!"
He was livid—more furious than ever before. A proud Ōtsutsuki warrior, bested in taijutsu by a human?
And worse, he couldn't even keep up. Every exchange had gone in Yuta's favor.
---
> "Hah! That's all you've got?"
Suspended mid-air, Uchiha Yuta crossed his arms and smiled coldly at Kinshiki.
> "Your taijutsu is trash. You're not even worthy to carry my sandals."
It was true.
Now that he had reached the Six Paths level, Yuta's physical strength, battle instincts, and mastery of Armament Haki had advanced to godlike levels. Kinshiki, despite being a divine warrior, was like a blundering amateur in comparison.
---
> "Don't get cocky!"
Kinshiki's face twisted with fury. He thrust his arm forward.
> "Crimson Fivefold Impact!"
BUZZ!!
Five flaming red chakra projectiles instantly formed on his fingers, glowing with violent energy. The air warped as the chakra surged forward, crashing through the atmosphere toward Yuta like meteors.
---
> "Tch… not interesting."
Yuta lazily clenched his fist and swung it casually.
CRACK—
The space in front of him shattered like glass, and a violent shockwave of raw force surged outward.
BOOOOOM!!!
The collision between Yuta's shockwave and Kinshiki's five crimson blasts exploded midair in a spectacular detonation. But the stalemate didn't last. Yuta's wave tore through Kinshiki's attack in an instant, obliterating it.
---
> "Wh-What?!"
Kinshiki's pupils shrank.
He had thought up many strategies. But he never expected Yuta to casually destroy his full-powered strike like it was child's play.
---
> "Unbelievable…"
Frustration gave way to madness.
Kinshiki roared as purple lightning surged across his body—his trump card: Heavenly Thunder Mode.
> "Divine Pursuit!"
His form blurred into a streak of purple lightning and launched straight at Yuta at terrifying speed.
---
> "Still too weak."
Yuta sighed and shook his head.
This guy's seriously brain-dead, he thought. His taijutsu is pitiful, yet he insists on fighting me in close quarters. Is he asking to be humiliated?
If Kinshiki had heard this, he'd have probably coughed blood in rage. For centuries, he had prided himself on his physical prowess.
Yet now, it was utterly worthless.
---
BOOM!!
The purple lightning collided with Yuta's armored body, but…
Nothing happened.
Yuta didn't move an inch.
His body was cloaked in a fusion of Armament Haki and Six Paths chakra—an unbreakable divine shield. The impact dispersed like a raindrop on stone.
---
> "This is impossible…"
Kinshiki staggered backward in midair. Despair began to creep into his heart.
---
> "This is boring."
Yuta frowned.
> "Time to end this. Die."
Without warning, Yuta's right fist lashed out.
BUZZ!!
A shockwave carrying the power of Six Paths burst forth. It instantly shredded Kinshiki's purple lightning armor and smashed into his body.
CRACK—
His skin ruptured. Bones shattered. His divine body began to fall apart.
---
> "Phase Shift!"
Panicking, Kinshiki activated his Byakugan's Dimensional Shift, attempting to blur his form and dodge the fatal blow.
But Yuta's eyes narrowed coldly.
> "Ōtsutsuki Kinshiki… it's too late."
> "Reverse Time."
BOOM!!
Yuta's Rinne-Tenseigan radiated a dazzling brilliance as a wave of temporal force surged out. The moment Kinshiki's body began to vanish, time rewound—and he was forcefully restored to physical form.
Kinshiki screamed.
---
> "No—NOOOO!!"
As his body reappeared and shattered again from the internal shockwaves, Kinshiki finally realized it.
There was no escape.
He was outmatched.
There was a chasm between them—as vast as heaven and earth.
