Naruto: The Ridiculously Talented Uzumaki
Chapter 470: Is... Is That All You’ve Got?Hey, look at author thoughts.
"So, it’s just a young man who has arrived."
Otsutsuki Isshiki’s voice was cold and indifferent, carrying a sense of condescending scrutiny and assessment.
He perceived that this adolescent Uzumaki Naruto before him seemed significantly less powerful than the Seventh Hokage he had previously suppressed with ’Daikokuten.’
Furthermore, Otohime at this moment had not only regressed to a childhood form, but her aura was also withered and weak to the extreme, with less than ten percent of her strength remaining.
Good, very good.
Otsutsuki Isshiki sneered internally.
It’s perfect to use that annoying Otohime to cultivate another God Tree, making up for her mistake of stealing my fruit back then.
And this young, slightly weaker Uzumaki Naruto...
Perhaps he is also a decent extra harvest; the other party also possesses a portion of the Ten-Tails inside him.
"Wood Clone Jutsu."
Just as Otsutsuki Isshiki was calculating, the young Uzumaki Naruto had already taken the initiative.
He didn’t hesitate in the slightest, his hands swiftly forming seals.
Considering that Chakra was precious, he only mobilized the minimum amount of Chakra, creating two "Wood Clone" made of Wood Release Chakra.
These two Clones were not strong, but they were sufficiently agile and stealthy. Uzumaki Naruto’s command was clearly conveyed in his mind: wait for an opportunity, and prepare to take the non-combatants and evacuate the battlefield.
Thus, the two Wood Clone, having received the command from the Main Body, immediately used the subterranean navigation technique to escape underground.
"Eight Gates—Open!"
Following this, the young Uzumaki Naruto let out a low roar. The Chakra within his body, like a burst dam, crazily surged along a certain forbidden path, striking at the seven Chakra Acupoints gates within his body!
A series of dull, drum-like "opening" sounds resonated within him! With every gate opened, the Chakra wave erupting from his body grew more intense, and the color gradually shifted from the initial green to a blue tinged with golden light.
Boom!
The moment the seventh gate, the "Gate of Shock," was completely thrown open, a heaven-shaking wave of energy erupted from the young Uzumaki Naruto’s body!
The golden and blue colors intertwined and swirled, forming a pillar of energy that shot straight into the sky.
His original medium-length golden hair, under the impact of this violent energy, stood up on end, like burning golden flames.
The young Uzumaki Naruto knew very well that when facing an enemy of Otsutsuki Isshiki’s caliber, any thought of holding back strength was foolish.
He had to bring out his strongest combat stance right from the start.
Fortunately, before being pulled into the space-time turbulence, he had already recalled all the Shadow Clone active outside. Not only did he recover a portion of the Chakra consumed during the previous battle against the Hidden Mist and Otohime on the moon, but more importantly—from the memory feedback of those "dead" Clones, he learned a crucial piece of information:
His Clones, during their long period of "idling" and research, had finally figured out "Sage Mode," and even supplemented his proficiency in the nature transformation of several other less familiar Jutsu.
Although those Clones, when transmitting memories back, included some annoying snarky comments like "The Main Body is only fit to polish our shoes!" or "The Main Body is an amateur!", Uzumaki Naruto could completely ignore this noise at this moment.
After all, he, Uzumaki Naruto, was never a petty person.
Besides, hitting a Shadow Clone would also hurt himself.
"Oh? Interesting."
Otsutsuki Isshiki watched the young Uzumaki Naruto, whose aura had instantly surged and whose stance had changed drastically. A hint of amusement flashed in the black pupil of his right eye, while his left Byakugan clearly "saw" the violent yet orderly impact path of the Chakra within Uzumaki Naruto’s body.
"However... why not open the final gate at the heart? Are you looking down on me?"
Otsutsuki Isshiki’s mouth curled into a cold arc, exposing the existence of the final taboo of the Eight Gates.
He could see through his left Byakugan that the violent Chakra torrent stopped when it struck the final barrier near the heart, the "Gate of Death."
Opening the eighth gate, the "Gate of Death," means death.
The young Uzumaki Naruto was very clear about this price.
He didn’t want to die here yet; he still had too many things to do and too many people to protect.
"Hmph."
Uzumaki Naruto did not answer. Those blue eyes, illuminated by the violent energy like burning gems, were locked onto Otsutsuki Isshiki.
"Otohime, lend me your eyes for a moment!"
Uzumaki Naruto suddenly shouted without turning his head, and at the same time, his right hand reached out behind him like lightning, quickly and roughly "wiping" across the golden Rinnegan of the young Otohime, who was hiding behind him and clutching his clothes tightly.
"Ah—!!!"
Otohime let out a short, shrill scream, her hands suddenly covering her eyes, her small body curling up and trembling violently.
It hurts, hurts, hurts, hurts, hurts!
Why is this guy so rough!
It wasn’t just the physical pain of fingers touching her eyes, but a feeling of emptiness originating from the depths of her Soul, as if something vital was being forcibly stripped away and transferred!
Otohime, holding her eyes and crying out in pain, even felt that she might have gone blind.
A Wood Clone immediately appeared to take her away.
The activation speed of Ame no Tajikarao was extremely fast, triggering almost upon contact.
However, the young Uzumaki Naruto was not borrowing Otohime’s eyes at this moment to use Kamimusubi to escape through time and space.
He did not know the accurate coordinates to return to the original time-space, and using it blindly would only result in falling into the turbulence again.
This pair of eyes and the Dōjutsu within them might be able to exert miraculous effects in the battle against Otsutsuki Isshiki.
He intended to "borrow" them temporarily, and after dealing with the immediate threat of Otsutsuki Isshiki, he would then consider returning or disposing of them.
"Can you steal... the ability of a Dōjutsu?"
Otsutsuki Isshiki took in that scene, and a hint of genuine solemnity and wariness finally flashed in his eyes.
This young man not only mastered a violent Forbidden Jutsu of Taijutsu but also possessed this bizarre and unpredictable ability to directly target and steal Dōjutsu.
He could not give him any chance; he must apply maximum pressure immediately!
A cold light flashed in Otsutsuki Isshiki’s eyes. The next moment, a large hand, like an iron pincer, easily gripped Boruto’s neck, lifting his entire body up.
"Gouge out those eyes of yours immediately."
Otsutsuki Isshiki’s voice was cold, filled with an unquestionable threat. He held the struggling, pained Boruto in front of him. "Otherwise... I will snap your son’s neck right now."
During these one thousand years in the Ninja World, Otsutsuki Isshiki had long set aside the pride of the Otsutsuki.
He had learned what humans were capable of, and at such a critical moment, he didn’t mind using some necessary underhanded tactics.
Facing this naked threat, the violent Battle Intent on the young Uzumaki Naruto’s face paused slightly, but then, he actually grinned, revealing an arrogant smile.
"You’re the one holding him, so why should I gouge out my eyes?" Uzumaki Naruto tilted his head, his tone relaxed.
"This is your son!"
Otsutsuki Isshiki’s gaze narrowed.
"I could just as easily say you’re my son!" The young Uzumaki Naruto retorted unceremoniously, his smile becoming even brighter. "I’m not even fourteen years old this year! Where would I get a son who looks about thirteen? Did I have him with your mother when I was one year old?!"
This extremely insulting and completely illogical bickering caused the usually calm and composed Otsutsuki Isshiki to feel a sudden tightness in his chest, and an uncontrollable rage instantly overwhelmed his sanity!
"Scoundrel!!!"
Otsutsuki Isshiki let out a furious roar!
He realized that using Boruto to threaten this somewhat "reckless" young Uzumaki Naruto simply wouldn’t work.
Although Boruto had just called the other party father, the other party seemed not to acknowledge or care about the life or death of this "future son" at all, which made his coercion tactic instantly ineffective.
Since the hostage was useless and would only hinder the battle...
Otsutsuki Isshiki did not hesitate; as if discarding a piece of useless trash, he threw Boruto aside fiercely.
Boruto let out a muffled groan as he slammed into a distant cliff wall, unable to move for a moment.
And just at the moment Otsutsuki Isshiki tossed Boruto aside.
A sharp light flashed in the young Uzumaki Naruto’s eyes, and the ground beneath his feet exploded.
The terrifying speed under the augmentation of the Gate of Shock + Nine-Tailed Chakra turned him into a golden-blue intertwined afterimage, instantly crossing the distance between him and Otsutsuki Isshiki!
"Konoha Strong Whirlwind!"
A high-position roundhouse kick, infused with his full strength and the Fusion of the violent Chakra of the Eight Gates and the power of the Nine-Tailed, struck like a battle axe, carrying a piercing whistle that tore through the air, aiming fiercely at Otsutsuki Isshiki’s cold and angry face.
Bang—!
A dull sound of impact rang out.
However—
Otsutsuki Isshiki, who was kicked, didn’t even tilt his head, and his body remained completely unmoved.
Only his collar fluttered slightly due to the strong wind.
Uzumaki Naruto’s kick, which was enough to split mountains and shatter rocks, and had reached the pinnacle of speed and power, landed on Otsutsuki Isshiki’s face, yet it seemed to have no effect at all.
Otsutsuki Isshiki’s pair of cold, heterochromatic eyes looked indifferently at the young Uzumaki Naruto, whose face could not hide his shock. The corners of his mouth curled into a contemptuous arc:
"Is... Is that all you’ve got?"
