Chapter 301: Golden Rinne Sharingan, the New Ninja God (Seeking Subscriptions)
Progenitor's Sphere Space.
Kakashi and the others were startled as they looked at the vertical eye on Sarutobi Asuma's forehead.
"It's a Rinne Sharingan!"
"But it's different from Uchiha Madara's and Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's. It's golden, and it feels different."
"So, is Uncle Asuma a Ten-Tails Jinchuriki now?"
Naruto and the others spoke one after another.
Uchiha Obito said, "Probably not."
"The Ten-Tails and Kaguya were both decomposed and absorbed by the Sage Tree. The Sage Tree's power should not only be able to directly absorb a person's chakra but also decompose their physical and mental strength, turning it into chakra."
"This point is similar to the God Tree's function."
His understanding of the Ten-Tails far surpassed that of Kakashi and the others.
Clone Uka also chuckled, "Obito is right."
"The power of the Ten-Tails, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, and Uchiha Madara has all been absorbed by the Sage Tree, then transformed, and then absorbed by the host."
"Moreover, what the host primarily absorbed was not their chakra, but the genetic mysteries contained within the chakra."
"Or rather, that is the fundamental power of chakra!"
Uchiha Sasuke secretly thought, Genetic mysteries... This should be the reason Lord Asuma can activate so many Rinnegan and Mangekyo.
He has been researching the Sharingan, allowing the Uchiha Clan to safely activate the Mangekyo, and naturally unearthed its secrets.
At this moment, Sarutobi Asuma was experiencing his newfound power.
Or rather, he was using this newfound power.
Amenotejikara!
To open his own extra dimension.
This included the Progenitor's Sphere Space at the center, as well as five attached extra dimensions.
The Progenitor's Sphere Space goes without saying.
As for the five extra dimensions, Sarutobi Asuma chose the Ice Snow Space, Black Flame Space, Electromagnetic Space, Dream Space, and Sandstorm Space.
After opening his own extra dimensions, Sarutobi Asuma shifted his attention to other abilities.
By "eating" the Ten-Tails, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, and Uchiha Madara together this time, and using the Sage Tree to analyze their respective genes and the mysteries hidden within their chakra, he had almost completely inherited their bloodline powers.
Infinite Tsukuyomi, the ultimate Genjutsu.
Yomotsu Hirasaka, Space-Time Ninjutsu.
And, Sarutobi Asuma's original Shikotsumyaku had now directly evolved into All-Killing Ash Bones.
His mastery of Nature Integration had also improved, and it was stronger than Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's.
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya used it within her own extra dimension, while Sarutobi Asuma could use it anytime, anywhere, as long as he possessed a vast amount of Natural Energy, he could manipulate nature's power at will.
Rabbit Hair Needles, Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack, Inflated Truth-Seeking Ball.
This single act granted Sarutobi Asuma eight new Kekkei Mōra techniques.
And this, in turn, provided him with a huge amount of experience points, directly leading to an upgrade.
Character Level: 48.
Of course, he gained more than just experience points.
This time, he had eaten his fill, and all aspects of him had improved.
Especially his lifespan, which had been greatly extended.
Like Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, living for thousands of years was no longer an issue.
Suddenly, Sarutobi Asuma thought that he had such a long lifespan.
But what about Tsunade, Nawaki, and the others?
Would he also, like the Ōtsutsuki Clan, use the Sage Tree to collect Natural Energy everywhere, and then lead his relatives and descendants towards longevity?
"No, I am not Ōtsutsuki!"
"I have already found a way to extend my lifespan. After transforming into a Sage, I can live for eight hundred years."
"Furthermore, the Sage Tree is different from the God Tree. It absorbs not only the power of the human body and the Natural Energy of the earth but also absorbs light energy and cosmic rays to grow."
Sarutobi Asuma solidified his resolve, then slowly opened his eyes.
At the same time, the Golden Rinne Sharingan on his forehead slowly closed.
Swish!
Sarutobi Asuma's figure appeared in front of Naruto and the others.
Behind him, the Sage Tree rapidly withered and turned into a pile of dust.
"I knew it, Uncle Asuma, you definitely wouldn't have any problems!"
Naruto laughed heartily.
He possessed good and evil perception, allowing him to clearly sense that Sarutobi Asuma's chakra felt as warm and sunny as ever.
Unlike Sasuke, whose presence felt sinister.
And Sakura's, which contained a hidden ferocity, capable of beating someone up if they weren't careful.
"Lord Asuma, how do we get back?"
"My ocular ninjutsu can't return to the Ninja World directly from here, and neither can Kakashi-sensei's Kamui."
Uchiha Sasuke said.
Naruto was stunned upon hearing this, then clutched his head and yelled.
Everyone else burst into laughter.
Not too far away, the One-Tail Shukaku, ever the provocateur, mocked the Nine-Tails for having such a foolish jinchuriki.
The Nine-Tails retaliated without hesitation, and the two Tailed Beasts nearly came to blows.
...
"Don't worry, we'll definitely get back."
Sarutobi Asuma chuckled, but his expression suddenly changed.
Kakashi noticed and quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Sarutobi Asuma shook his head. "Tsunade and the others have returned to Konoha."
Kakashi's heart skipped a beat, immediately realizing that something must have gone wrong in Konoha.
"Don't worry, it should be fine."
Sarutobi Asuma smiled.
Ōtsutsuki Kamishiki was far more powerful than the six clones of Uka.
"Let's go!"
As Sarutobi Asuma spoke, a dark space-time gate appeared.
The six clones of Uka stepped through first.
Kakashi and the others followed closely.
...
Forbidden Life Zone, battlefield.
Senju Hashirama and the others were currently receiving intelligence from headquarters.
The attacker was indeed related to Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, a powerful individual named Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.
This cast a grim pallor over everyone.
After just fighting a major battle, were they going to have to endure another one?
"Lord Hashirama, is this Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's target also the Tailed Beasts?"
Onoki asked, "The Tailed Beasts aren't in the Ninja World anymore, so his target shouldn't be them, right?"
"Why would he attack Konoha?"
"Is it to coordinate with Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's actions?"
Senju Hashirama said, "His target is Asuma's eldest son, Nawaki. As for his objective, it's not yet known."
"Perhaps we'll know once Asuma returns."
"But Ōtsutsuki Isshiki is incredibly powerful, and his abilities are extremely troublesome."
At this moment, Senju Tobirama returned. "Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's abilities include space-time ninjutsu, allowing him to open space-time gates for long-distance travel and even transport people into an alternate dimension."
"This is similar to Ōtsutsuki Kaguya."
"His troublesome ability is that he can shrink any object, including ninjutsu, and then restore the shrunken objects and ninjutsu to use them as attacks."
Onoki couldn't help but ask in a deep voice, "What do you mean?"
Senju Tobirama explained, "Asuma's clone's analysis indicates that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki can shrink an object, like a kunai, and store it in an alternate dimension, then release it. This happens very quickly and is extremely stealthy; even Jiraiya in Sage Mode would have difficulty reacting."
"Furthermore, his most commonly used weapon is the Black Rod, created with Yin-Yang Release, which can seal a ninja's chakra."
Namikaze Minato immediately asked, "Second Hokage, does he only shrink and restore objects and ninjutsu?"
"He can also shrink himself, making him difficult to sense. During combat, he hasn't shown the ability to shrink opponents."
Senju Tobirama stated, "Our current analysis is that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki cannot shrink living beings other than himself."
"Even so, he is indeed incredibly difficult to deal with!"
Namikaze Minato remarked.
Although they hadn't personally fought him, simply hearing Senju Tobirama's description and analysis allowed them to grasp the terror of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.
"Also, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki possesses extremely powerful taijutsu abilities."
"At the very least, I, Jiraiya, am no match for him!"
Senju Tobirama's expression was grave. "During the battle, he also summoned a cube made of unknown material. It was hard, heavy, and could also disrupt perception."
"Without a doubt, this is an opponent who is absolutely no less formidable than Ōtsutsuki Kaguya!"
The Second Mizukage couldn't help but sigh, "Honestly, so many powerful individuals are suddenly appearing."
Ōnoki gritted his teeth and said solemnly, "No matter who these strong individuals are, we absolutely will not allow them to destroy the Ninja World!"
He certainly didn't want to end up like a dried-out corpse hanging in the air.
The Fourth Raikage, still hot-headed and impatient, declared, "Then, after we deal with Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, we'll all unite and take care of this Ōtsutsuki Isshiki as well!"
The Fifth Mizukage stated, "The key issue now is Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, and this Infinite Tsukuyomi."
"If the Infinite Tsukuyomi cannot be dispelled, even if Asuma has protected some people, the Ninja World will still suffer a severe blow."
The main forces of the Ninja World are currently suspended.
What's left in the major ninja villages are basically the elderly and the very young.
If the Infinite Tsukuyomi cannot be undone, the Ninja World will at least be weakened for more than ten years.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned grim.
"There's no need to worry too much about this."
Senju Hashirama encouraged everyone, "The Infinite Tsukuyomi is an ultimate genjutsu cast by the Rinnegan. To dispel it, the Rinnegan should also be able to."
"Asuma surely has a way!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
Everyone suddenly looked in one direction, their bodies tensing simultaneously, eyes fixed, each readying their ninjutsu.
A spatial gate suddenly appeared.
However, soon everyone relaxed.
It was Sarutobi Asuma's clone who emerged, followed by Naruto and the others.
"Naruto!"
Uzumaki Kushina's heart finally settled.
"Mom!"
Naruto hugged Uzumaki Kushina, then greeted Namikaze Minato, grinning, "Uncle Asuma has already defeated Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, Uchiha Madara, and Black Zetsu!"
"That's great!"
Namikaze Minato was both surprised and delighted.
On the other side.
Nohara Rin saw Kakashi and Uchiha Obito emerge and immediately showed a brilliant smile, waving her arms like she did in their youth, "Kakashi!"
"Obito!"
Hearing the familiar voices, Kakashi and Uchiha Obito looked over simultaneously, then both stepped forward.
At this moment, the Nine-Tails and other Tailed Beasts also emerged.
"I never thought we'd be fighting alongside these guys one day!"
The Seven-Tails remarked with emotion.
Shukaku said cuttingly, "Except for a select few, they're all a bunch of idiots!"
The Nine-Tails sneered, "If you dare say that in front of them, you'll be beaten badly!"
"It's you, you stinking fox, who will be beaten badly!"
Shukaku shrieked.
The other Tailed Beasts watched this scene, secretly chuckling, and then began to spectate.
However, soon Killer B, Gaara, and other Jinchuriki walked over.
Shukaku immediately said, "Gaara, let's team up and teach this stinking fox a lesson, let him know that the strongest among the Tailed Beasts is me, Shukaku!"
The Nine-Tails immediately called for backup, "Naruto, you idiot, hurry up and come here, let's beat up this stinking cat together!"
At this moment, Sarutobi Asuma also emerged from the Progenitor's Sphere Space.
Instantly, all eyes converged on him.
"Asuma, how do we dispel the Infinite Tsukuyomi?"
Senju Hashirama asked.
"It's very simple!"
Sarutobi Asuma smiled, then flew high into the sky, the skin between his brows splitting open, activating his Golden Rinne Sharingan.
The next moment, the pattern of the Golden Rinne Sharingan was reflected on the moon.
"Release!"
Sarutobi Asuma raised his hand, dispelling the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Instantly, the vines binding the God Tree loosened, and the restrained individuals fell to the ground, opening their eyes in a daze.
The God Tree's roots, spread across the Ninja World, rapidly retracted.
"So it was dispelled!"
Onoki sighed in relief, but inwardly he frowned, thinking, Did Asuma unlock the Rinne Sharingan just now?
The Fifth Mizukage, Mei Terumi, also noticed the Golden Rinne Sharingan from before and mused, It seems like a lot has happened in the battle we couldn't see.
"From now on, the Ninja World will likely be completely different."
...
Sarutobi Asuma landed on the stump of the God Tree, placing his right palm on it. The tree stump and its roots writhed and were then "devoured" by him.
Meanwhile, the Allied Shinobi Forces, now back to their senses, learned that Sarutobi Asuma had rescued them and erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
Rumble!
The earth shook, and the soil churned.
The God Tree's roots retracted, finally disappearing into Sarutobi Asuma's body.
The Allied Shinobi Forces looked on, witnessing Sarutobi Asuma completely resolve the God Tree that had bound them, and they cheered loudly.
In an instant, Sarutobi Asuma's name soared to the heavens!
Namikaze Minato watched with a smile, exclaiming, "A new Ninja God is born!"
Uzumaki Kushina nodded, then said, "It's time for you to retire too!"
Namikaze Minato embraced Uzumaki Kushina and said gently, "Once Asuma takes over as Hokage, let's go travel to the South Sage Continent!"
Uzumaki Kushina's eyes lit up, and she immediately agreed.
In the past, as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, she had many limitations, even when carrying out missions.
Now that she was no longer the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, it was indeed time to go out and see the world!
...
Sarutobi Asuma, having absorbed the God Tree's roots, hovered in the air. Listening to the cheers of nearly a hundred thousand people below, a sense of satisfaction surged within him.
This feeling of being admired and revered was truly exhilarating!
Furthermore, the system had just notified him: Achievement [Ninja God] obtained!
The reward for this achievement was Constitution +2 and Intelligence +2!
Though it seemed small, even a single point increase in any of the four main attributes was extremely precious to Sarutobi Asuma at this moment.
He allocated the free attribute points to Intelligence and accessed his status screen.
Constitution: 250
Agility: 230
Intelligence: 220
Charm: 300
Magnificent!
Especially the Charm stat, which had skyrocketed!
The other three attributes had also seen significant increases.
Compared to before he absorbed the Ten-Tails and Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, not to mention the Kekkei Mōra, his physical attributes alone had undergone earth-shattering changes.
The data only showed a few percent increase compared to his previous state, but the resulting power, speed, reaction time, learning ability, and knowledge reserves had more than doubled.
"Ōtsutsuki Isshiki..."
Sarutobi Asuma closed the system interface and turned his gaze toward Konoha. "The Ōtsutsuki Clan, who arrived in the Ninja World with Kaguya, possess formidable taijutsu... I'd like to see who gave you the audacity to target Nawaki!"
In his previous life, he hadn't known much about Ōtsutsuki Isshiki. However, after absorbing Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, he had gained many of her memories, including those concerning Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.
And also the second Ten-Tails in its juvenile state!
"If I can capture this Ten-Tails, perhaps I can have Tsunade and the others consume it..."
Sarutobi Asuma mused inwardly.
