Everyone was already used to Hikari's statements and actions regarding his obsession with women.
Hashirama expressed extreme envy.
Back then, he had wanted to teach Bai Mo how to conquer the Uchiha, but he ended up being mocked instead.
Looking at it now, the mockery he received wasn't unwarranted.
This was the real Uchiha Conquest Master.
On the other side, Urashiki had already found Naruto and his group.
Facing Urashiki's standard wicked smile, Boruto grew furious.
He thought of his master, Sasuke, whose fate was unknown.
As everyone knows, if the fate is unknown, it means they are dead.
Boruto furiously launched an attack against Urashiki.
Boruto circled around Urashiki from behind, ran to face him, and charged forward.
This baffling human behavior of circling around only to attack from the front stunned even Ōtsutsuki Urashiki, who was already slow-witted, causing him to utter a strange sound, "Hm?"
Then, an Ōtsutsuki High Kick sent Boruto flying.
"Damn it, regular attacks are useless against him."
Boruto climbed up from the ground, wiping away nonexistent blood from the corner of his mouth.
Naruto seized the opportunity and threw several Kunai laced with exploding tags. Urashiki instantly vanished from his spot and reappeared nearby.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
Jiraiya pursued, using Fire Release.
However, instead of aiming the Fire Release at Urashiki, it deliberately bypassed him, forming a circle around him.
Clang.
Inside the Wood Release Wooden House, Tobirama angrily slammed his fist onto the table.
"I finally know Urashiki's true ability!"
"I know too. This is Space-Time Ninjutsu. Urashiki should be able to..."
Nagato also nodded slightly.
Because Bai Mo had previously demonstrated time-based abilities in front of him, he had some insight into this area—at least more than anyone else present.
"No."
Tobirama shook his head. "I'm not talking about that, but another, more terrifying ability."
"What ability?"
Everyone looked toward Tobirama simultaneously.
The ability to lower intelligence, and this ability is likely a passive, continuously effective power, similar to an aura. As long as you are near Urashiki, your intelligence will be lowered to his level.
Otherwise, there is absolutely no way to explain why that Jiraiya fellow launched the Great Fireball Technique like that. Was he planning to trap Urashiki? Clearly not. The fact that Urashiki can fly was information provided immediately upon their first encounter.
Urashiki constantly maintains a floating posture, reminding everyone that he can fly; Jiraiya couldn't possibly overlook that. Moreover, even if Urashiki couldn't fly, if it were any other Ninja, a normal person could simply jump out of the flames at that height. It couldn't be that Jiraiya was worried Urashiki caught a chill after emerging from the river and was kindly warming him up, could it?
When Tobirama first spoke, Nagato thought the Second Hokage was a weirdo joking around, just like the First. But the more he spoke, the more sense it made.
Who was Jiraiya? He was his foundational Ninjutsu teacher, the legendary Sannin. His combat experience was vast, second only to the Ninja of the Sengoku period. In fact, it might even be richer than that of most Ninja from the Sengoku period.
After all, the Sengoku period involved conflicts between clans, which were relatively small-scale—essentially village brawls. After the establishment of the Hidden Villages, the conflicts became Ninja World Wars, wars between nations.
It was truly perplexing that Jiraiya, with his wealth of combat experience, would make such an unbelievable move. If you claim he was testing Urashiki's abilities, Nagato had already guessed that Urashiki's power was related to time, and he could definitively state that Jiraiya's attack had absolutely nothing to do with testing.
If he wanted to test him, he would certainly have to attack Urashiki directly, not circle around him and warm him up with fire.
And that was indeed the case. After Urashiki flew out of the circle of fire, Jiraiya stopped outputting the Great Fireball Technique, leaped high into the air, and used the Toad Oil Bullet. Countless yellowish-brown substances sprayed out from Jiraiya's mouth. Thankfully, the Masked Man wasn't here, or he would surely recall some unpleasant memories.
Facing Jiraiya's Toad Oil Bullet, Urashiki, looking confident and calm, began constantly "teleporting and flashing" through the trees. He acted completely like an Ōtsutsuki Enderman. At the same time, the bloodstains on Urashiki's clothes were rapidly fading.
Jiraiya watched this scene, deep in thought. That's right, this was the ability test. So, was that Great Fireball Technique just now truly meant to warm up Urashiki?
"I understand too! That damned Ōtsutsuki Urashiki is too despicable!" Hashirama suddenly stomped his foot in anger.
The others looked at Hashirama in confusion. "Big Brother, what have you realized?" Tobirama was puzzled.
"Tobirama, haven't you always said I was stupid? I was influenced by this, this inherently evil Ōtsutsuki Urashiki! We must eliminate the evil Ōtsutsuki!" Hashirama, his face filled with righteous indignation, clenched his fists, even stealing lines from his younger brother, Tobirama.
"Uh..." Tobirama really wanted to tell Hashirama, Big Brother, your intelligence is innate; you can't blame Urashiki. Urashiki wasn't even born yet when you were acting foolish. But wouldn't saying that hurt him too much? Forget it, he wouldn't say it. When Big Brother realizes that his intelligence hasn't changed after defeating Urashiki, he'll understand.
Immediately afterward, the group temporarily shelved the topic and began discussing Urashiki's time-based ability, which Nagato had just mentioned.
Nagato was the first to realize it, and after Nagato's reminder and Jiraiya's next genuine Toad Oil Bullet test, the others also figured out a bit. Similarly, Jiraiya's group figured it out as well.
Urashiki's Rinnegan ability allows him to briefly rewind time by a few seconds, which is essentially equivalent to precognition, enabling him to better evade attacks.
The only problem is that Urashiki's rewind cannot affect himself, so he experiences more time than others, which is why the bloodstains on his clothes dry faster.
The Stupidity Aura seemed to have temporarily failed.
Jiraiya bit his finger and used the Summoning Jutsu. The surrounding environment instantly became pitch black. "Where is this?" Urashiki saw his surroundings clearly and realized he was inside something fleshy. —This was the stomach of a Mount Myōboku toad.
It must be said that the Mount Myōboku toads are truly miserable. One moment their stomachs are summoned out and burned through by Amaterasu, and the next they are used as a Divine Tree to consume an Ōtsutsuki.
Fortunately, although Urashiki could leave at any time, he chose not to.
Urashiki and Naruto, who used Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu, began exchanging blows inside the stomach. During this time, Urashiki constantly used time rewind. This was comparable to Danzo using Izanagi as a Substitution Jutsu.
After stalling for time like this, just as Naruto was defeated, Urashiki suddenly spat out a mouthful of old blood. The stomach contained acidic venom.
Because Urashiki experienced more time than Jiraiya and the others, he was poisoned faster.
So what was this? Purple Haze instantly defeating King Crimson? Or Father Pucci inhaling pure oxygen?
So the Ōtsutsuki Clan's bodies are this fragile—they can actually be poisoned? The last time we saw poisoning was during the fight between Sakura and Sasori, and Sakura even neutralized Sasori's poison.
Based on this, Sakura > Poison > Ōtsutsuki Urashiki > Sasuke. Now she's truly caught up.
