Naruto: The Ridiculously Talented Uzumaki

However, just as Isshiki raised his fist to counterattack, he met Naruto’s eyes.

Those eyes of Naruto, originally azure, suddenly turned gold.

They were the golden Rinnegan he had "borrowed" from Otohime.

Susanoo · Illusionary Sea of the Dragon Palace!

Isshiki only felt the scene before him suddenly blur and distort.

The ground instantly turned into a shimmering seabed, with magnificent crystal palaces, schools of swimming fish, giant coral... and a giant whale with its mouth wide open, lunging straight at him.

Naruto stood on the roof of the crystal palace, watching with his own eyes as the giant whale swallowed Isshiki, and then his consciousness returned to reality.

Facing the giant whale’s maw, Isshiki also realized what this was.

"Damn it, it’s Otohime’s illusion!"

Isshiki’s eyes were Byakugan and his other eye; breaking illusions wasn’t like using the Rinnegan where one could clash with Ocular Power, otherwise he wouldn’t have lost to Otohime.

Taking advantage of the one-thousandth of a second when Isshiki was dragged into the illusion and his body became extremely stiff, he pushed his speed to the limit, rushing in front of Isshiki like a teleportation!

"Ame no Tajikarao · Bestow, Earth and Rock Brittle!"

Returning to reality, Naruto formed a sword-finger with his left hand and struck Isshiki’s chest as fast as lightning.

The ability of Ame no Tajikarao activated. This time, it wasn’t stealing, but "bestowing."

Naruto bestowed the material properties of the ground beneath his feet onto Isshiki’s body.

Immediately after, Naruto’s right leg, wrapped in golden Nine-Tailed Chakra, blue Gate of Shock steam, and violent Lightning Release arcs, kicked fiercely into the chest of Isshiki, who had been "bestowed" with the properties of rock and earth, with the force of splitting mountains and shattering stones!

Under the superposition of multiple powers and the "Rock and Earth Brittle" property, Isshiki’s originally indestructible and terrifying Physical Body was now kicked apart in the chest and abdomen by Naruto’s kick, as if it were dried clods of earth.

It wasn’t a simple fracture or depression, but a true shattering with flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Isshiki was kicked into two pieces, upper and lower; a large amount of visceral fragments, bone debris, and flesh tissue exploded outward in all directions.

The scene was extremely bloody.

"Argh!"

The excruciating pain that reached the depths of his Soul, combined with Naruto’s lack of proficiency in using the Illusionary Sea of the Dragon Palace, allowed Isshiki to instantly break free from the "Illusionary Sea of the Dragon Palace" illusion.

But it was too late.

He looked down, staring in disbelief at his own upper body, which had been almost kicked in half and was a bloody mess, as well as his viscera and lower body that had been splattered away; the intense pain and fury twisted his face to the extreme.

"You... bastard...!!!"

Isshiki squeezed a hoarse, murderous low roar from his throat, his remaining upper body lying on the ground, unable to move.

It was not that Isshiki was not strong enough. His stats absolutely crushed the young Naruto.

However, the unreasonable ability of Ame no Tajikarao directly wiped out Isshiki’s advantage.

Furthermore, by using the Rinnegan of Otohime "borrowed" through Ame no Tajikarao and a series of stolen Dōjutsu, Naruto successfully compensated for his shortcomings in Advanced illusions and control, catching Isshiki off guard.

Naruto stood not far away, panting slightly, looking at the heavily injured Isshiki, his eyes still sharp.

’Any technique, no matter how powerful or bizarre, must have its weaknesses or limitations. This technique that can bestow material properties is no exception.’

Isshiki endured the heart-wrenching pain and the feeling of weakness as his vitality rapidly drained, his brain working at an unprecedented speed.

He used his hands to crawl with difficulty, inch by inch, away from Naruto, dragging a glaring trail of blood on the ground.

Isshiki thought of the way Naruto had broken through his absolute defense.

’The activation condition for this mysterious technique of his... is most likely requiring direct physical contact!’

Isshiki’s mind suddenly cleared.

’Those high-speed movements, the Flying Thunder God harassment, and even the final illusion... were all to create the opportunity to activate that technique after that one contact. As long as he doesn’t touch me... as long as I create distance...’

As long as I get away from him, and then use my true ability... use Daikokuten (Dōjutsu) to create Black Cubes (black cube-shaped weapons), I can trap him and finish him off!

As long as I leave his side, as long as I create distance, victory is still mine!

It wasn’t because Isshiki had consumed too much energy fighting Adult Sasuke and Naruto earlier that he didn’t use "Sukunahikona" and "Daikokuten."

With his Chakra reserves, using these Dōjutsu repeatedly was not much of a burden.

He had simply underestimated his enemy.

He never expected that this young Naruto from the "past," who seemed far less powerful than his adult self, would be so underhanded.

Then again, Naruto’s "first-encounter kill" attribute was indeed ridiculously strong.

Often, when enemies encountered his endless, varied tactics and trump cards for the first time, they easily suffered huge losses.

Even his "second-encounter kill" attribute was not weak.

Even if you knew his abilities, it was extremely difficult to respond effectively, because he could always pull out something new just when you thought you had figured out his routine.

Isshiki used his remaining arms to drag his broken body, crawling forward with difficulty on the cold ground.

Fragments of viscera and viscous blood were dragged everywhere with his movements, leaving a shocking trail of blood.

’Right... Karma... I can still leave Karma on that guy called Uchiha Sasuke!’

A thought flashed through Isshiki’s near-collapsing consciousness like a lifeline.

’Although he is not as compatible as Kawaki, at least... he also has the Rinnegan, and his Physique is far superior to ordinary people... he can serve as a backup ’Vessel’...’

However, when he barely propped up his upper body with his elbows and scanned the battlefield with his Byakugan, trying to find Uchiha Sasuke, who had been pinned to the ground by his black rod, he was shocked to find that Uchiha Sasuke and Boruto were both gone.

Where are they?

The place where Uchiha Sasuke had collapsed was now empty.

Only a few broken black rods were scattered on the ground, proving that someone had been there.

’No, where are those two guys?’

Alarm bells rang in Isshiki’s heart, and an ominous premonition welled up.

His current state was really too poor.

Because Jigen’s vessel body had previously been burned by Kashin Koji’s flames, he was forced to resurrect early using Jigen’s remains, so he was already in poor condition and his strength was greatly reduced.

Now, after being kicked into two pieces by Naruto using "Ame no Tajikarao" to bestow the fragile rock and earth property, only his upper body remained, his vitality was rapidly fading, and his Chakra was in chaos.

’It seems I can only try my luck...’

A sense of desperation and madness rose in Isshiki’s heart, and he gave up searching for Sasuke.

’When this young Seventh Hokage comes to attack me, I’ll try to see if I can plant ’Karma’ on him!’

A flash of desperation and ruthlessness crossed Isshiki’s eyes.

This was his last chance!

If he could plant the "Karma" into Naruto’s body, even if it was just an initial mark, he would have a chance to seize this young, powerful, and potential-filled body as a new "Vessel."

Exchanging Jigen’s broken body for such a perfect "Vessel" was definitely not a loss; it could even be considered a huge profit.

Thinking of this, Isshiki stopped crawling forward.

He used his last bit of strength to turn over suddenly, facing the direction from which Naruto might attack.

However, just as he turned around, Naruto was already standing silently behind him like a ghost.

The moment Isshiki turned around, what he saw was a pair of cold, azure eyes.

And two hands, fast as lightning, covered in golden Chakra, with terrifying power concentrated at the fingertips.

"Puchi! Puchi!"

Two scalp-numbing, dull thuds that sounded like crushing ripe fruit.

Naruto’s hands pierced into Isshiki’s eye sockets like fierce eagle claws.

He gouged and pulled with force.

"Argh!"

Isshiki let out a scream more miserable and desperate than when his body had been broken earlier.

The intense pain of having his eyes gouged out instantly overwhelmed all his consciousness.

Two still-warm, bloodshot eyeballs were caught in Naruto’s hands.

But Isshiki was worthy of being an Otsutsuki who had lived for countless years with an unyielding will.

In this desperate situation where his eyes were destroyed and the pain was excruciating, his remaining combat instinct and final obsession drove him to counterattack.

Ignoring the pain from his hollow, bleeding eye sockets, his right hand, like a dying viper, thrust out at an incredible speed and angle, grabbing Naruto’s wrist.

"It seems... the final winner... is still me!"

Isshiki grinned, revealing a smile mixed with extreme pain, madness, and twisted pleasure.

His two eyes had become terrifying bloody holes, blood mixed with tissue fluid gushing out, and blood was also constantly dripping from the corners of his mouth and the broken part of his chest; he looked like a demon crawling out of Hell, yet he was laughing.

Because, the moment he grabbed "Naruto’s" wrist, his remaining Chakra and will, like maggots attached to bones, flowed wildly into "Naruto’s" body along the point of contact.

He wanted to forcibly plant "Karma," even if it was just the most preliminary mark; as long as it succeeded, he still had hope of a comeback.

The opponent’s body... was so young, so full of vitality, and the Chakra was so vast and unique, almost reaching the pinnacle of humanity, with infinite possibilities.

However, just as Isshiki was about to complete the initial planting of "Karma," and a hideous, winner-like smile appeared on his face.

"Poof!" A soft sound.

The "Naruto" whose wrist he had been clutching tightly and whose eyes had been destroyed suddenly turned into a puff of white smoke and dissipated into the air.

The smile on Isshiki’s face froze instantly, then transformed into unbelievable shock and fury.

"It seems, the final winner is not you."

Young Naruto stood not far away, using Bansho Tenin to pull Isshiki’s eyes over, and used Ame no Tajikarao to absorb the Dōjutsu inside the two eyes.

"If you have a next life, don’t be careless again."

"You!"

Isshiki held his right hand high; he had already transferred everything he had through Karma, and at this moment, this body was left with only a Soul about to depart and an empty shell.

He roared in unwillingness, turned into a stone statue, fell to the ground, and shattered into pieces.
