With Naruto Uzumaki's interference, Kinshiki Otsutsuki could do nothing but remain constantly on guard against surprise attacks.
There was no way to assist Kinshiki now.
Above in the sky, Sasuke Uchiha also felt a tremor in his heart.
He had originally thought that with his current strength, defeating two Otsutsuki would be effortless.
But he hadn't expected that just facing one of them would push him to his limits.
The enemy's chakra seemed limitless.
After such a prolonged battle, his ocular power was nearly drained, and searing pain coursed through every limb and joint...
"I'll have to retreat for now."
Sasuke controlled Susanoo to fly backward.
"Wanna run?"
"I'll kill you!"
Momoshiki Otsutsuki saw Sasuke trying to escape and immediately swallowed several Chakra Pills to chase after him.
But in the next instant, Naruto Uzumaki appeared beside Sasuke.
Then, the colossal [Susanoo] vanished into thin air, leaving no trace behind.
"Damn it!!!"
Furious, Momoshiki Otsutsuki clenched his fists tightly.
A mere lowly creature had consumed so many valuable Chakra Pills and still managed to escape successfully.
This arrogant brute felt like his chest would explode from rage.
After all, Chakra Pills were extremely precious!
As Momoshiki Otsutsuki was about to accuse Kinshiki for failing to deal with Naruto Uzumaki, he suddenly noticed something strange on Kinshiki's face—an unusual mark.
"Kinshiki, what is that mark on your face?"
Hearing this, Kinshiki caught sight of the mark using the reflection from his weapon.
His brows furrowed. "So that guy used this mark to activate [Space-Time Ninjutsu]?"
He reached up to wipe it off, only to find the mark wouldn't budge.
Letting out a cold snort, Kinshiki transformed his divine treasure, the Wave Phantom, into a dagger. He then sliced off his own face and burned it to ashes.
Seeing this, Momoshiki Otsutsuki took out a Chakra Pill. "Here, eat this pill."
Kinshiki gritted his teeth. "Lord Momoshiki, I don't need it."
Momoshiki Otsutsuki said coldly, "Eat it. I still need your help."
After hesitating briefly, Kinshiki swallowed the pill.
Immediately afterward, his face visibly returned to normal.
"Lord Momoshiki, the loss of contact with Lord Isshiki Otsutsuki and Lady Kaguya Otsutsuki definitely isn't coincidental."
"This world is unlike any we've encountered before."
Momoshiki Otsutsuki, I know," Kinshiki Otsutsuki muttered with a faint scoff. "We should probably capture a civilian first and learn about the current situation on this planet."
After the recent battle, Momoshiki Otsutsuki had abandoned his original idea of directly destroying the ninja world.
He had to determine how many natives on this planet wielded power like theirs!
Once they made their decision, both figures vanished from the spot.

The Hidden Leaf Village.
As Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha suddenly appeared in the living room while they were playing mahjong, Kushina Uzumaki and Tsunade both wore shocked expressions.
Kushina asked, "Naruto, Sasuke, did you two fight again? Why do you look so disheveled?"
Those two were such a handful.
Even though they were nearing thirty, they still hadn't found girlfriends and kept acting like kids, running around all day.
"Hmph," Sasuke Uchiha scoffed. "I have no interest in fighting this guy."
Naruto took a sip of water and said grimly, "We encountered members of the Otsutsuki Clan and fought them."
"The Otsutsuki Clan?!"
Upon hearing Naruto's words, Kushina Uzumaki, Tsunade, and Mikoto Uchiha couldn't help but gasp aloud.
"Tell us exactly what happened."
Seeing their stunned faces, Naruto proceeded to explain everything about encountering Kinshiki Otsutsuki and Momoshiki Otsutsuki.
"Their strength was incredible; one specialized in taijutsu, while the other was skilled in ninjutsu."
"Anyway, we've never actually fought them before."
Sasuke Uchiha immediately corrected him, "It wasn't not fighting—it was a strategic retreat!"
However, Naruto ignored him and suddenly frowned. "The Flying Thunder God Marker I left on my opponent seems to have vanished."
Tsunade suddenly asked, "Where exactly did you say you encountered those two Otsutsuki members?"
"In the Country of Vegetables."
Curious, Naruto asked, "Why?"
Tsunade immediately stood up, her face set with determination. "I'm heading to the Country of Vegetables right now. Mikoto Uchiha, go inform Mirai Uchiha."
Mikoto Uchiha nodded. "I understand."
Tsunade wasted no time, activating Otsutsuki Teleportation and disappearing instantly.
The king of the Country of Vegetables had done her many favors and even covered her massive gambling debts.
She would never let anything happen to the descendants of her dear old friend.
Watching Tsunade rush off, Mikoto Uchiha and the others quickly headed toward Mirai Uchiha's estate.
"Wait, are you saying those two Otsutsuki Clan guys showed up in the Country of Vegetables, and Tsunade went after them on her own?" Mirai Uchiha turned to the group.
Uzumaki Sasuke immediately nodded. "Exactly, Lord Mirai. We need to hurry and get there."
Mirai Uchiha smiled. "Don't worry, those two won't be able to do much against Tsunade."
Given Momoshiki Otsutsuki and Kinshiki Otsutsuki's performance in the Boruto storyline, their strength was at most only half a Six Paths-level.
Tsunade, however, is a true Six Paths-level powerhouse.
Even the current Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki can go head-to-head with them, so there's no way they could ever threaten Tsunade.
Still, toying with Momoshiki Otsutsuki and Kinshiki Otsutsuki might prove quite entertaining.
It would probably add some unique excitement to his life.
Thinking about this, Mirai Uchiha opened a spatial portal.
"Those who want to come along, follow me."
"Let's see what abilities these legendary Otsutsuki Clan members truly possess."
After saying this, Mirai Uchiha stepped forward and vanished from the room.
Sasuke Uchiha's eyes burned with admiration.
No wonder he's called Lord Mirai—his coolness factor is off the charts!
He was exactly the kind of person Sasuke had always dreamed of becoming.
Mikoto Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and the others followed through one by one.
Kaguya Otsutsuki hesitated for a moment, then stepped into the space portal.
She also wanted to see just how powerful the clan members dispatched to chase and hunt her really were.
