Chapter 298: Beating Miss Kaguya To A Pulp!
The earth shakes and the mountains quake?
No!
At this moment, the collision between Sarutobi Asuma and Ōtsutsuki Kaguya caused the entire Sacred Valley to tremble.
"Ah!"
Haruno Sakura screamed. The three-headed monstrous bird was unstable, swaying back and forth with the shaking space-time.
Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke also swayed.
"This level is simply..."
Uchiha Sasuke was dumbfounded.
Naruto, on the other hand, was overjoyed and excited: "As expected, I knew Uncle Asuma was the strongest!"
"We're definitely going to win this time!"
"Sasuke, we need to get ready to seal, we absolutely cannot let that guy escape to another dimension again!"
Uchiha Sasuke nodded: "Got it!"
His eyes were fixed on the center of the battlefield.
Fist against fist, they continuously bombarded each other, the sound deafening and unending.
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya had just replenished her Chakra, making her truly powerful.
It seemed like an even match.
"Kaguya isn't going to win!"
Suddenly, Uchiha Sasuke's eyes narrowed.
He noticed that the number of Chakra fists condensed by Ōtsutsuki Kaguya had decreased.
However, Sarutobi Asuma's Senju Susanoo Great Buddha's arms continued to grow, as if they were endless.
"There's no way to block this kind of move head-on!"
Uchiha Sasuke swallowed dryly, then shouted: "Naruto, prepare to seal!"
"Yosh, I'm completely ready!"
"Ah!"
Suddenly, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya let out a pained roar.
Her defense had been broken. The Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack couldn't withstand the combination of Sarutobi Asuma's Susanoo Great Buddha and Limbo: Border Jail.
Two fists are no match for four hands!
The defense formed by the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack was shattered, and the dense barrage of fists immediately slammed into Ōtsutsuki Kaguya.
There was no hint of mercy.
Even though Ōtsutsuki Kaguya could absorb any Ninjutsu, and even dismantle Susanoo, she couldn't withstand Sarutobi Asuma's Wood Release.
His Wood Release was also at the Kekkei Mōra level!
Sarutobi Asuma's Chakra nature was even more profound than Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's.
Attacking from five directions simultaneously, there was no room for evasion.
And Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, at this moment, couldn't use Yomotsu Hirasaka.
Then.
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya exploded!
Accompanied by sharp screams and the sound of tearing fabric, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's body expanded, twisting, and a giant rabbit with a Rinne Sharingan appeared, roaring.
Ten-Tails transformation!
However, it wasn't Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's voluntary Ten-Tails transformation, but she was blown up by Sarutobi Asuma, achieving a passive Ten-Tails transformation.
"Trying to use an Inflated Truth-Seeking Ball?"
Above the Great Buddha's head, Sarutobi Asuma's figure appeared. He looked at the expanding Ten-Tails, his gaze sharp: "Don't even think about it!"
Snap!
He clapped his hands together: Sage Art: Enclosing Fist of the Top of the Head!
Instantly.
The hands of the Susanoo Great Buddha, which had been attacking with fists, rose and presented their palms. The Susanoo armor receded, and a "seat" character appeared on the palm of the Buddha's hand.
Instantly, Sarutobi Asuma's main body, along with four Limbo clones.
Dense palm imprints appeared on the expanding Ten-Tails.
"Roar..."
The Ten-Tails roared, but its entire body was covered by one Buddha palm after another.
This move was originally used to suppress Tailed Beasts.
The Nine-Tails was once easily subdued by Senju Hashirama and taken from Uchiha Madara.
And now, Sarutobi Asuma wielded Wood Release at the Kekkei Mōra level, making its power naturally even more formidable, coupled with the Limbo clones.
The expanding Ten-Tails immediately stopped, its struggles gradually lessening.
The blood-red Rinne Sharingan on the rabbit's head slowly closed.
"Good!"
Sarutobi Asuma showed delight, detaching himself from the Susanoo wood Buddha and transforming into a flash of lightning to arrive before the Ten-Tails, placing his palm on the slowly closing Rinne Sharingan of the giant rabbit.
Wood Release: Sage Art - Birth of a World of Trees!
Without a doubt, Sarutobi Asuma intended to use his Sage Tree to devour Ōtsutsuki Kaguya completely, leaving nothing behind!
However.
When he performed this technique, his expression changed.
The Ten-Tails rapidly shriveled.
And at the same time, on the other side, with a bang, the Buddha palm exploded.
Immediately after, Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack erupted, blasting the Limbo clones away.
"Hm?"
"I was impatient. By using Enclosing Fist of the Top of the Head, I actually helped Ōtsutsuki Kaguya suppress the wild consciousness of the Nine Beasts within her."
Sarutobi Asuma immediately realized his mistake.
And at this very moment, Uchiha Sasuke shouted, "Naruto, now!"
The next moment, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, who had just blasted away the Limbo clones, suddenly appeared between Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke.
They reached out, attempting to seal Ōtsutsuki Kaguya.
Sarutobi Asuma's expression changed upon seeing this.
As expected.
The next moment, Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, and Ōtsutsuki Kaguya all vanished.
"Sasuke!"
"Naruto!"
Haruno Sakura exclaimed.
"No need to worry. With their current strength, they can still handle it."
Sarutobi Asuma offered comfort, then landed on the back of the three-headed monstrous bird. Two more heads grew on the sides of its neck – one with the Mangekyo Sharingan like Uchiha Obito's, and the other with Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan.
He had analyzed the genes of everyone in the Uchiha clan, and all sorts of information was within him. For him, even the Mangekyo Sharingan abilities of Uchiha Shisui and others could be used at any time.
It was only now that Uchiha Sasuke had awakened his Mangekyo and Rinnegan.
"This place is connected to other dimensions, so finding them won't be difficult!"
As soon as Sarutobi Asuma finished speaking, Kakashi and Uchiha Obito appeared not far away.
"Teacher Kakashi!"
Haruno Sakura was overjoyed.
Kakashi, bringing Uchiha Obito, immediately used the Flying Thunder God Technique to also arrive on the back of the three-headed monstrous bird.
"Kakashi, you've arrived at the perfect time. You go find Naruto and the others!"
Sarutobi Asuma said.
"Understood. However, my Chakra consumption was quite high just now, and with five dimensions here, it will likely take a long time."
Kakashi's expression was solemn.
"Teacher Kakashi, I'll help you. My Chakra is still very abundant."
Haruno Sakura immediately went behind Kakashi, placing her hands on his back.
Although she didn't have the Sage Cursed Seal, she had mastered the Yin Seal and the Sage Art Eight Trigrams Seal. Moreover, she had been on the sidelines earlier, so her Chakra and Sage Power were very sufficient.
"Alright, with this, it will be faster!"
Kakashi said.
Meanwhile, Sarutobi Asuma had already opened one dimension using Kamui. A torrent of corrosive liquid poured out, but it was immediately repelled by an invisible shockwave.
From the corrosive dimension, a figure shot out – it was the clone, Kamui.
Closing the dimension, Sarutobi Asuma then continuously opened other dimensions at high speed.
Uka and the others returned one by one to the starting space.
"Kakashi, it seems Naruto and the others are in the super gravity dimension!"
Sarutobi Asuma frowned, "Kakashi, you and I will go in. Everyone else, stay here."
With that, he and Kakashi disappeared from the backs of the three-headed monstrous birds.
...
Super Gravity Space.
Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke fell and immediately sat on the ground. The terrifying super gravity made it difficult for them to even breathe.
"Damn it... this is even more terrifying than Asuma-uncle's jutsu!"
Naruto shouted.
Uchiha Sasuke tried to adapt and simultaneously observed that Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, on the opposite side, was also not immune to the effects of the super gravity. He shouted, "Naruto, adapt quickly. Kaguya is just like us!"
"Understood!"
Naruto gritted his teeth and moved his body little by little, unable to help but mutter, "If I had known, I should have learned Light-Heavy Rock Jutsu from Asuma-uncle."
Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but retort, "Even if I taught it to you, you wouldn't be able to master it."
Then, he secretly felt fortunate, "Fortunately, Lord Asuma used similar moves during training before. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't even be able to move."
At the same time, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, looking at Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, weighed her options and still didn't decide to kill them directly.
The chakra of Indra and Ashura was also very important to her.
Especially since Naruto carried half of the Nine Tailed Beasts within him.
If she could retrieve these Tailed Beasts, the Ten-Tails would be complete.
Only then would she not fear that guy named Sarutobi Asuma!
Therefore, her body expanded, directly transforming into the Ten-Tails. Arms extended from it, heading straight for Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke.
This was Ōtsutsuki Kaguya willingly transforming into the Ten-Tails. She also had to thank Sarutobi Asuma for coincidentally allowing her to temporarily suppress the consciousness of the Nine Tailed Beasts before.
Amaterasu!
Uchiha Sasuke immediately activated his Mangekyo Sharingan.
However, the Ten-Tails roared, and a piece of flesh with black flames detached from it, completely unaffected.
"Damn it!"
Uchiha Sasuke gritted his teeth, watched the slowly extending hand, and knew he absolutely could not touch it. He quickly got up and moved to dodge.
However, the Ten-Tails had ten such hands, directly blocking their movement range from all directions.
"In this environment, I can't use Rasenshuriken at all!"
Naruto gritted his teeth, raised his hand, formed hand seals, and created Shadow Clones.
However, the terrifying gravity was something the Shadow Clones couldn't withstand. The Shadow Clones that had just been created immediately dissolved into puffs of smoke.
"Damn..."
Naruto was at a loss for other methods for the moment.
However, their movement space was shrinking bit by bit, and they would soon be captured by the Ten-Tails.
Just then, the space distorted, and two figures fell with a thump.
"Asuma-uncle, Kakashi-sensei!"
Naruto was overjoyed upon seeing them.
"So heavy!"
Kakashi, who had fallen to the ground, heard Naruto's voice and looked up. He was startled and quickly used Kamui to twist off an arm that was approaching Naruto from behind.
Sarutobi Asuma, with his three heads, was prepared. He immediately used Super Light-Heavy Rock Jutsu on himself to reduce his weight and lessen the impact of this gravity space on him.
At the same time, he also used Kamui, breaking off the Ten-Tails' arms one after another.
Then, Sage Art: Heavenly Hand of the God!
Red torii gates descended from the sky, suppressing the Ten-Tails' tail-like arms.
"Seal the head!"
Sarutobi Asuma aimed for the Ten-Tails' head.
Roar!
The Ten-Tails roared, and the descending torii gates actually exploded.
Sarutobi Asuma grunted lightly, flipped his hand, and a shuttle-shaped black short sword, resembling a handleless kunai, appeared. Along with sparks of electricity, it shot through the air with a swish, heading towards the Ten-Tails at an extremely high speed.
"So fast!"
"What is that?"
Naruto and the others couldn't help but exclaim.
Uchiha Sasuke and Kakashi used their Sharingan to track the flying sword's trajectory. Although Sarutobi Asuma had greatly reduced the flying sword's mass, it was still affected by the super gravity, its speed significantly reduced. However, its speed was still so fast that both of them could barely track it.
Chii!
The flying sword sliced a huge gash into the Ten-Tails' neck.
The Ten-Tails let out a pained roar, its shockwave actually blasting the flying sword away.
But the flying sword quickly stabilized itself, paused for a moment, and then shot forward again.
At the same time, Sarutobi Asuma was speeding forward, heading straight for the Ten-Tails.
Although still affected by gravity, under the Lightning Style Chakra Mode, his speed was still astonishingly fast compared to others.
Naruto stared in disbelief, "Is Asuma-uncle not affected by the gravity here at all?"
However, just as Sarutobi Asuma and the flying sword were about to get close to the Ten-Tails, the environment changed again.
Initial Dimension!
"We're back!"
Uchiha Obito grunted.
High in the sky, the Ten-Tails roared, then expanded rapidly, and a black sphere appeared.
The flying sword, which was originally heading straight for the Ten-Tails' head, immediately collided with the Truth-Seeking Ball, half of the flying sword sinking into it.
"The Inflated Truth-Seeking Ball has finally appeared..."
Sarutobi Asuma stopped his advance, and the flying sword flew back, circling him like a fish. "It seems that eating Ōtsutsuki Kaguya whole is almost impossible."
He thought for a moment, and ultimately changed his original plan, to avoid messing things up in the end.
In that case.
Sarutobi Asuma immediately transmitted his voice to everyone, "Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi, prepare for the seal!"
"Understood!"
Naruto responded excitedly.
At this moment, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya reappeared, and the black ball continued to expand. Kakashi asked, "Asuma, that black ball is expanding rapidly, Kamui can't transfer it."
"This thing is called an Inflated Truth-Seeking Ball, and it's different from ordinary Truth-Seeking Balls."
Sarutobi Asuma explained, "This Inflated Truth-Seeking Ball belongs to Kekkei Mōra, it can annihilate everything, returning the world to nothingness. Kaguya is trying to kill us in this space."
"However, since it can't be transferred, I'll use the Great Destruction!"
Kakashi exclaimed in surprise, "This, can it be shattered?"
"This is even more powerful than Uchiha Madara's Truth-Seeking Ball, right?"
Naruto said, "Why don't Sasuke and I give it a try!"
"No need, you guys stay ready for the seal, but be careful of the technique I told you about earlier!"
"Go!"
With a thought from Sarutobi Asuma, the flying sword shot out, disappearing from its original position like a bolt of lightning.
"So fast!"
Uchiha Sasuke exclaimed. He could still track the flying sword's trajectory in the super gravity space just now, but now he couldn't at all.
This speed had already surpassed the speed of natural lightning.
Fast, too fast!
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya also couldn't react, and the flying sword had already been nailed to her right shoulder, pinning her onto the expanding Truth-Seeking Ball.
Immediately after, a powerful electromagnetic field and a terrifying gravitational field erupted from the flying sword.
These two forces instantly rendered Ōtsutsuki Kaguya unable to move or transfer to another space.
"How is this possible?"
"It can't be absorbed!"
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's eyes widened as she found she couldn't absorb the technique on the flying sword.
"The essence of my Chakra is no less than yours, and my power is no weaker than yours, so it's perfectly normal that you can't absorb it."
Sarutobi Asuma said, and a terrifying power erupted from within his body, his entire form engulfed in bloody steam.
"Eight Inner Gates!"
Kakashi gasped, secretly shocked, "As expected, Guy was right about Asuma..."
Without suppressing the surging bloody steam, Sarutobi Asuma stomped his foot, and with a cracking sound, dark fissures appeared in the space, and he vanished.
Almost simultaneously, the two fields covering Ōtsutsuki Kaguya disappeared. The part of the flying sword nailed to her right shoulder that was in contact with the Inflated Truth-Seeking Ball shattered, leaving only half of it stuck in her shoulder socket.
It was the Inflated Truth-Seeking Ball that wore away half of Sarutobi Asuma's flying sword.
Instantly, Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack spread across Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's front, filling every inch of space.
But the next moment, the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack collapsed like a destructive storm. Ōtsutsuki Kaguya had no power to resist, and a fist-sized hole, passing through from front to back, appeared on her chest.
Crack!
Cracks appeared on the Inflated Truth-Seeking Ball.
"What?"
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya said in disbelief, "How is that possible?"
"Your power has completely surpassed the Ten-Tails."
Sarutobi Asuma stood in the air and chuckled, "Honestly, before opening the Gate of Death, I didn't even know how powerful I had become."
He had tried opening the Gate of Death once back in the day, but compared to then, his physical condition had improved significantly.
Now that he opened the Gate of Death again, the power displayed was incomparable to what it was before.
As he watched Ōtsutsuki Kaguya gradually recover, Sarutobi Asuma brought his hands together, and the surrounding air immediately surged.
*BOOM!*
A bloody dragon head emerged.
Kakashi's pupils widened, "Is it the same technique as Guy's?"
But the next moment, he sensed something was wrong.
The dragon head opened its mouth, and as it roared, a dense white light erupted, seemingly condensing into a ball of light.
At this moment, the surrounding space distorted.
"So... so powerful!"
Naruto and the others watched, completely dumbfounded.
