Looking at the Otsutsuki Urashiki in the sky, Naruto frowned for once.
This was the first time he had seen a living Otsutsuki. Not only did Urashiki possess a pair of six-tomoe Rinnegan, but the fishing rod and gourd in his hands were treasures no weaker than the Rinnegan itself. The quality of his chakra far surpassed Naruto's own Sage Fox Mode chakra.
It was just that, although the quality of Urashiki's chakra was terrifying, the amount wasn't actually much greater than Sasuke's.
And Sasuke's chakra... was richer than Hatake Kakashi's, but not by much.
While Naruto was staring at Urashiki, Urashiki also noticed Naruto and the middle-aged Sasuke on the ground. His gaze swept across the Nine-Tails chakra inside Naruto's body, and the corners of his mouth curled into a strange smile.
"I was still wondering how I'd find the fox, but I didn't expect you to personally bring him right to me. Sasuke Uchiha, you're truly a good person."
The middle-aged Sasuke gritted his teeth, drew the sword from his waist, and sneered.
"It's still too early to say who's going to win!"
Hearing this, Urashiki glanced around. After switching to his Byakugan, he chuckled lightly.
"I see... so these monkeys hiding in the forest are what gave you confidence?"
"You should know their chakra will only make me stronger!"
Before he even finished speaking, Urashiki swooped down from the sky and rushed straight toward Naruto. The fishing rod in his hand shot out instantly, the hook aiming directly at Naruto, who remained standing still.
Whoosh!
Accompanied by a burst of wind, Sasuke instantly swapped places with Naruto using Amenotejikara and charged directly at Urashiki.
Urashiki didn't change directions at all. The hook struck Sasuke, stealing away a portion of his chakra, while Urashiki himself flashed toward Naruto at blinding speed and slowly stretched out his palm.
"The fox's chakra is mine!"
What greeted Urashiki, however, was a point-blank Massive Rasengan.
After taking the attack head-on, Urashiki's body twisted slightly from the impact. He immediately widened the distance and hurled the hook once more.
The hook struck Naruto this time, but it failed to absorb even a trace of chakra. Instead, Urashiki got punched directly in the face.
Urashiki's expression changed. After glancing at Naruto and Sasuke in the distance, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Using sealing techniques to block the fox's chakra... not bad. But how long can you last against me?"
After speaking, Urashiki switched his Rinnegan to blue and launched another assault.
Unlike before, no matter how Naruto and Sasuke attacked, Urashiki dodged every strike with absolute precision. Naruto was forced to activate Sage Mode as well, yet he still got hit several times by Urashiki.
"What kind of technique is this?! Why have I never seen you use it before?"
It was Sasuke's first time seeing Urashiki's blue Rinnegan, and his expression became extremely serious.
"This is a divine technique of the Otsutsuki Clan. Mortals like you could never understand the power of divine arts..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Urashiki disappeared again and slammed directly into Sasuke, causing Sasuke to cough up a mouthful of blood, his face filled with concern.
Although the sealing technique could prevent Urashiki from stealing chakra, it couldn't actually hit him.
Sooner or later, he and Naruto would lose. Not only would Naruto of this era die, but his own era would also end up under Urashiki's attack.
Thinking of this, Sasuke looked toward Naruto—only to find a faint smile on Naruto's face.
Naruto's smile made Urashiki frown slightly. He couldn't understand why this little fox was still smiling despite the overwhelming gap between them.
Although the brat also possessed Sage Mode capable of threatening him, his strength clearly wasn't comparable to the older Naruto.
Urashiki instantly rushed toward Naruto again, no longer willing to waste time. He planned to steal the Nine-Tails chakra and leave this era immediately. After all, using the Karasuki came with a price, and the longer he stayed in the past, the harsher the backlash would become.
At that moment, Urashiki suddenly noticed countless tiny spots appearing across his body, and his movements became sluggish.
"What did you do?!"
Naruto formed hand seals, rapidly healing his injuries as he entered Sage Fox Mode.
Seeing this scene, Urashiki's face changed drastically. He couldn't believe Naruto was already this powerful as a child. In terms of techniques and combat skill, this Naruto had already surpassed the Naruto of his own era.
Urashiki wanted to use Yomotsu Hirasaka to escape, but it was already too late.
Naruto in Sage Fox Mode was completely different from before. He appeared directly in front of Urashiki in an instant, and a barrage of Gentle Fist strikes slammed into him. Urashiki, whose movements had slowed down, couldn't dodge at all, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
The ability of the blue Rinnegan allowed him to rewind himself a few seconds in time, letting him foresee enemy attacks through repeated observation.
But if his body itself became too slow, then even if he predicted the attack, he still wouldn't be able to evade it.
But when had he been poisoned? And when had his ability been figured out?
As if seeing through Urashiki's thoughts, Naruto smiled but didn't explain further. Instead, his eyes locked onto the fishing rod and gourd in Urashiki's hands.
Using the Body Flicker Technique, Naruto instantly appeared beside Urashiki. Dozens of Adamantine Sealing Chains burst from his body and wrapped around him.
The Adamantine Sealing Chains alone were nowhere near enough to restrain an Otsutsuki. Naruto's real target was the fishing rod and gourd. After exchanging a glance with Sasuke, Sasuke immediately sliced off one of Urashiki's arms.
Urashiki screamed in pain, violently breaking free from the Adamantine Sealing Chains. He shot into the sky and attempted to use Yomotsu Hirasaka again.
Sasuke followed closely behind. Before Urashiki could escape, Sasuke swapped positions with him using Amenotejikara. At the same time, a black core of Chibaku Tensei condensed in his palm.
The Chibaku Tensei activated instantly.
Naruto, having already secured the fishing rod, ordered a shadow clone to carry it into the sealing formation while he himself rose into the air. A gigantic Rasengan formed in his hand, its deafening rotation roaring across the battlefield as it smashed toward Urashiki.
Urashiki stretched out his palm, preparing to absorb the chakra—
—but the Massive Rasengan suddenly disappeared.
In its place, Sasuke's sword pierced directly through Urashiki's palm.
At that exact moment, the Massive Rasengan slammed directly into the completely defenseless Urashiki.
The terrifying force blasted Urashiki high into the sky. After being launched upward for more than ten kilometers, the Rasengan exploded.
The gigantic shockwave blew away the clouds themselves, creating what looked like a second sun hanging in the sky.
After suffering such a devastating blow, Urashiki fell weakly from above and crashed directly into the sealing formation on the ground.
The earth, already activated through Ryūchi Cave Sage Arts, instantly wrapped around Urashiki's body, revealing layer after layer of sealing formulas.
After finishing everything, Naruto landed on the ground together with the exhausted Sasuke. The two stared at the sealed Urashiki, curiosity flashing in Naruto's eyes.
Their plan to hunt Urashiki had been a success.
But now, the real question was how they were supposed to extract information from him.
