Kinshiki stared in disbelief at the two who had just kicked him squarely in the face. He knew exactly how much force that kick contained.
Strong!
They were just two children!
Weapon in hand, Kinshiki carefully observed Naruto and Sasuke. Just as he had sensed, they really were only teenagers.
But—
They weren't ordinary teenagers.
They were the reincarnations of Asura and Indra's chakra, personally raised and trained by Chinatsu since childhood. They were the younger brothers she constantly complained about, yet cherished more than anyone else.
"chinatsu-neechan! We'll protect you!"
The two shouted in unison, their eyes burning with determination.
Momoshiki, who was confronting Chinatsu, narrowed his eyes in surprise.
Although the Otsutsuki aura surrounding the siblings wasn't as dense as Chinatsu's, the chakra radiating from Naruto and Sasuke had suddenly evolved to an entirely different level.
"Who interfered?"
"Instead of worrying about that, worry about yourself!"
Seizing the instant Momoshiki was distracted, Chinatsu flashed forward and drove another heavy punch straight into his face.
Bang!
Momoshiki's head snapped sideways as he staggered backward several meters. His expression twisted with fury.
Both of them instinctively wiped the blood from the corners of their mouths. Their wounds visibly regenerated almost immediately.
Sage Body… Tch.
Chinatsu couldn't help clicking her tongue.
Dragging this battle out would only become more dangerous.
Although they both possessed astonishing vitality, Momoshiki was a pure-blooded Otsutsuki, whereas her own physique had merely reached the level of a Sage Body through countless opportunities and enhancements.
Against ordinary shinobi, her physical attributes were overwhelmingly superior.
Against a genuine Otsutsuki…
They were no longer enough to guarantee victory.
Fortunately, with Naruto and Sasuke occupying Kinshiki, she finally no longer had to remain on guard against surprise attacks.
If that's the case…
Let's try that.
With Kinshiki tied down, Chinatsu finally gained the breathing room she needed.
Momoshiki couldn't tell what she was planning, but his instincts warned him that she was preparing something dangerous.
The World Peace Technique?
No…
This was Konoha.
Although most civilians had already begun evacuating, many people were undoubtedly still inside the village.
Even if that technique could defeat Momoshiki, Chinatsu had no intention of turning herself into the criminal responsible for destroying Konoha.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"
Crossing her fingers into the familiar seal, Chinatsu immediately activated one of the most broken techniques ever created in the ninja world.
Most people didn't think the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique was particularly overpowered. To them, it was merely an advanced version of the ordinary Shadow Clone Technique capable of creating a greater number of clones.
That wasn't entirely wrong.
But the Shadow Clone Technique itself was already absurd.
Every clone possessed the same combat ability, memories, and combat instincts as the original. Once dispelled, all accumulated memories and experience returned to the user instantly.
Most importantly…
Its realism was nearly perfect.
Even the Byakugan, Sharingan, and Rinnegan could not directly identify the original body simply by looking. At best, powerful dōjutsu users could perceive differences in chakra distribution, but they still couldn't instantly determine which clone was real.
Second Hokage Tobirama… your forbidden techniques are absolutely amazing!
As dozens of Chinatsus appeared across the battlefield, Momoshiki's gaze shifted rapidly from one clone to another.
"…I can't tell."
Another interesting ninjutsu.
The shinobi of this planet truly possessed techniques that even the Otsutsuki clan did not.
Momoshiki slowly smiled.
"I have to admit…"
"For a world inhabited by so-called lower life-forms, you've produced quite a few fascinating individuals."
Momoshiki praised the creator of the Shadow Clone Technique in his own arrogant way.
As for the Impure World Reincarnation, he had no interest in it. Compared to the Ōtsutsuki Clan's Karma, even such a forbidden technique seemed crude.
Then, he extended one palm toward the dozens of Chinatsus before him. The Rinnegan embedded in the center of his palm began to ripple.
"Since I can't tell which one is the real body..."
"I'll simply destroy them all!"
A barrage of compressed chakra bullets erupted from the Rinnegan in his palm.
The greatest weakness of Shadow Clones is their durability. Although they possess all of the original's abilities, a sufficiently powerful attack can disperse them instantly.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
One after another, the clones exploded into clouds of white smoke.
Within moments, the battlefield was cleared.
Only the real Chinatsu remained.
She stood quietly at the rear of the formation with her hands pressed together, calmly completing the final preparations for a powerful technique.
"Hahaha!"
"So that's the real one!"
"What a pointless struggle!"
Momoshiki grinned viciously.
This time, he condensed far more chakra than before into the Rinnegan on his palm.
A massive chakra bullet shot toward Chinatsu like a meteor.
Its speed was astonishing.
Even if she somehow avoided a direct hit, the resulting explosion would engulf the surrounding area, making escape nearly impossible.
Not far away, Naruto and Sasuke, who were still fighting Kinshiki, noticed the attack.
Sasuke instinctively prepared to intervene.
Then...
He saw the faint smile on Chinatsu's face.
"...Nee-san."
His tense expression immediately relaxed.
"Right..."
"Nee-san knows that technique."
As the younger brother who had trained with her for years, Sasuke immediately understood what she intended to do.
Just as the chakra bullet reached her—
Whoosh!
Chinatsu disappeared without warning.
The attack struck nothing but empty air before exploding violently behind her.
An instant later, she reappeared several dozen meters away...
Standing directly atop a small black seal engraved on the ground.
The Flying Thunder God Seal.
Momoshiki's pupils contracted.
He immediately spun around to face her.
"Space-time movement?"
"And it's a ninjutsu?!"
Even among the Ōtsutsuki Clan, space-time abilities were considered among the highest-class divine techniques.
Yet what Chinatsu had just used...
Wasn't even a Divine Technique.
"How can a low-level world produce so many absurd ninjutsu?!"
Momoshiki clenched his teeth.
Without hesitation, he raised his arm again and unleashed another storm of chakra bullets toward Chinatsu.
But...
He was already too late.
Chinatsu had bought herself exactly enough time.
She slowly exhaled.
Determination filled her crimson eyes.
"This is my first time using it..."
"But it should work!"
"Sage Art!"
"Wood Release!"
"True Several Thousand Hands!!"
The earth beneath her feet erupted violently.
An enormous earthquake spread throughout Konoha as the ground split apart.
From deep beneath the earth...
A colossal wooden Buddha slowly rose into the sky.
Behind it...
Countless gigantic arms unfolded one after another.
The Nine-Tails was enormous.
Yet compared with the True Several Thousand Hands, Kurama looked almost insignificant.
One of the Buddha's palms alone was large enough to suppress the entire Nine-Tails.
Chinatsu swallowed hard.
Cold sweat trickled down her forehead.
This was her first time performing the True Several Thousand Hands.
Because she hadn't mastered it completely, the technique required time to prepare and consumed an enormous amount of chakra.
"Damn it..."
"I'm betting everything on this!"
"Susanoo!"
Crimson chakra erupted around the gigantic Buddha.
A rose-colored Susanoo formed layer after layer over its body like divine armor.
Although no blood flowed from Chinatsu's Mangekyō Sharingan, an intense burning sensation assaulted her eyes, as though someone had poured boiling chili oil directly into them.
"It hurts..."
"So much..."
She gritted her teeth and endured the pain.
Standing atop the colossal Buddha, Chinatsu looked down at Momoshiki.
For the first time since arriving in the ninja world...
The arrogant Ōtsutsuki's expression changed completely.
He stared at the mountain-sized Buddha in utter disbelief.
"This..."
"...What kind of monster is this?"
Chinatsu slowly raised one hand.
The countless gigantic arms behind the Buddha moved in perfect synchronization.
"The counterattack..."
"...begins now."
Under Chinatsu's command, the colossal Buddha swung one of its enormous palms toward Momoshiki.
