Chapter 289: Three-Eyed Kaito Shirogane
As the pitch-black barrier shattered, Kaito Shirogane walked out, grabbing the lifeless body of Uchiha Obito with one hand.
The corners of Kaito Shirogane's mouth curled up as he looked wantonly at the illusory figure of Otsutsuki Hagoromo.
"The Sage's taste isn't that great~"
The Sage of Six Paths looked astonished at this moment. Everything happened too fast. Uchiha Obito, who should have had a great advantage, was defeated by Mercenary Tao controlled by Uchiha Madara in an instant.
But the next moment, the opponent reversed the situation with [Izanagi]. Yet before the situation could be completely turned around, the real Mercenary Tao reappeared and directly dominated the power of the two souls within his body.
Merging that peculiar space and soul power with the power of Uchiha Madara's Sharingan, he instantly counter-killed Uchiha Obito using [Izanagi] combined with that special barrier technique.
And he didn't leave himself any chance to turn the tables.
Kaito Shirogane's right hand put the purple card shimmering with flowing light in front of him into his backpack.
*[You obtained Loot Card (Peerlessly Rare) 1]
On the Throne of the Heart, Kaito Shirogane forcibly suppressed the two unruly souls, preventing them from leaving.
Only in this state was he truly unrivaled. Even the strongest genjutsu [Kotoamatsukami] couldn't truly dominate his actions. He could switch soul control at any time to avoid the influence of [Kotoamatsukami] and achieve his goals in another way.
In fact, in Kaito Shirogane's view, the Sage of Six Paths didn't have many choices at the moment. He deliberately left Senju Hashirama's Edo Tensei body tainted with Scarlet Rot, intending for the Sage of Six Paths to stay in that body.
Of course, in this era, the Senju clan had disappeared. The most outstanding members of the Uchiha clan: two were by his side, and one's soul was contained within his body.
The choices left for the Sage of Six Paths were already few.
Unsurprisingly, the other party chose Uchiha Obito, the best choice on the surface.
Uchiha Obito possessed the Uchiha bloodline, counting as a direct descendant of the Sage of Six Paths. Moreover, Obito's talent for awakening eyes was quite outstanding, and double Kamui was one of the most difficult existences to deal with below the Six Paths Level.
If Kaito Shirogane's existence wasn't considered, Uchiha Obito with double Kamui could be said to have no problems roaming the current ninja world freely. Even the Six Paths of Pain would find it hard to deal with double Kamui Obito.
But with Gojo Satoru's[Unlimited Void], it was different. This was an ability almost capable of "first-sight killing" anyone whose magnitude wasn't enough to be immune to Kaito Shirogane's attacks.
This kind of absolute control supplemented Kaito Shirogane far beyond most abilities.
Splurt!
The ground cracked open, and the intense life energy flowing out of Uchiha Obito's corpse also began to be swallowed by the Golden Erdtree.
If one were to draw an analogy with the Golden Order's war in the Lands Between, then Uchiha Obito's defeat and death at this moment could almost be regarded as the death of a Dragon Lord.
The resistance forces of this world were becoming weaker and weaker.
The Golden Erdtree grew taller, and the blessings spread by the Golden Order reached deeper and farther.
Given enough time, the entire world would eventually be occupied by the Golden Order. By then, the Empyrean Minoru Hiranaka would probably seal the Pure Land and Hell of this world under the blessing of the Greater Will, making [Death] disappear completely.
All life could only return to the Golden Erdtree, starting a new era.
But...
"Sage of Six Paths, aren't you going to try and make a deal with me again?"
Otsutsuki Hagoromo was already somewhat desperate. The ninja world happened to decline to a dangerous state. The power of these outsiders was strong enough that for a while, he couldn't catalyze a force capable of defeating these people.
He didn't want his mother Kaguya to be released, nor did he want this world to fall into a world ruled by Outer Gods.
Amidst his entanglement, he unexpectedly heard that crazy Mercenary Tao standing tall and making a seemingly unreliable suggestion sideways.
What exactly does this guy want to do...
Amidst Otsutsuki Hagoromo's confusion, he suddenly met Mercenary Tao's eyes. One eye was like flowing blue sky and white clouds, while in the other eye, the blind three-tomoe Sharingan had been discarded, and a human pitch-black pupil had grown back.
There was absolutely no golden hue in the opponent's eyes.
Mercenary Tao... doesn't belong to the Golden Order!
Although he didn't understand the reason, Otsutsuki Hagoromo realized a turning point for the world.
This powerful human, who killed Tailed Beasts and Sages and vigorously promoted the growth of the Golden Erdtree, actually didn't belong to the Golden Order faction.
The opponent was a pure human...
"You... want what..."
Otsutsuki Hagoromo looked at Mercenary Tao's cruel smile and asked. The smile on the opponent's face became more obvious—it was extreme greed.
But Otsutsuki Hagoromo didn't have many choices. One of his descendants' reincarnations was taken away by that woman, and the other still fell within the Golden Order.
The world was also obscured by the golden tree. Everything had been changed.
Now, to reverse all this, the best choice was nothing more than handing the benefits to this person.
——
Boom boom boom!
Golden flames were continuously thrown from the sky. The Eight-Tails Gyūki began to retreat. Both it and Killer B realized that this monster could continuously get supplies from the Golden Erdtree.
Moreover, the opponent's power was strange, and its abilities were becoming more and more comprehensive. Their attacks had very poor effects on the opponent.
And as the Golden Erdtree obscured the sky, the "smell" in the world had begun to change.
Some kind of power completely different from this world began to flow within it.
While fighting, the Fourth Raikage was still waiting for the Third Tsuchikage's support. Facing this kind of enemy, Onoki's Dust Release was far more convenient than his Nintaijutsu.
But since that attack where Onoki led the team to dodge and Mercenary Tao chased after them, Onoki never appeared again, nor was any intelligence sent back.
A had a bad guess in his heart.
Whoosh~
Suddenly, a gale blew from the forest. A terrifying aura came from the distant forest.
"Mercenary Tao, are you finally going to accept... the Greater Will crowning you..."
Inside the increasingly huge Elden Beast, Minoru Hiranaka's voice completely lost human emotions.
He was calling for the King he recognized to descend.
Tap, tap, tap...
Steps were steady. Scarlet Conqueror's Haki began to sway and erupt from the forest.
A tall figure swayed as he walked out of the forest.
A looked back and indeed saw that terrifying figure. Purple Satsui no Hado lingered around his body, burning like a torch.
Scarlet aura spread continuously towards the surroundings. Even he felt suppressed by the surging aura at this moment.
But seeing Mercenary Tao's face, he was still stunned.
That man with a cruel smile had a right eye of blue and white, while his left eye was pure white, with veins bulging around the eye socket—clearly the look of the Hyuga clan's Byakugan. And on his forehead, a purple eye covered with spiral patterns grew vertically.
