Lava World.
The sky and ground were a fiery red, with lakes of magma stretching endlessly. The air was scorching hot.
Sensing the change in their surroundings, Itachi and Shisui immediately released chakra to protect their bodies and prevent moisture loss.
If it weren’t for the fear of running out of chakra later, the best option to handle this environment would have been to activate Susanoo.
But Itachi had always been frugal with his chakra, and Shisui wasn’t far behind in that regard.
While observing their surroundings and the enemy, Itachi also thoughtfully grabbed hold of a bewildered Guy, who had just been teleported there, and helped him resist the oppressive heat with his chakra:
"Be careful, Guy-senpai. We’ve entered the enemy’s alternate dimension."
Guy glanced at the magma-filled world and the distant figure of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki:
"Thank you, Itachi."
"But it’s time for me, the Blue Beast of Konoha, to make my entrance!!"
As he spoke, Guy gave Itachi and Shisui a thumbs-up, flashing his brilliant white teeth.
But...
Someone had already made the first move.
It was none other than Naruto and Sasuke, who had just received the powers of Yin and Yang from the Sage of Six Paths.
Naruto, with Kurama as his massive chakra reserve, wasn’t worried about chakra consumption at all, and immediately activated his strongest Nine-Tails Chakra Mode upon entering the scene.
Sasuke, on the other hand, didn't hold back either. Wielding his newly acquired power, he unleashed his complete Susanoo right from the start.
As he charged towards Kaguya, he sliced through any obstacles in his path with the twin swords at his waist.
Explosions rang out continuously wherever he passed, the destruction akin to Madara cleaving mountains with a single stroke of his blade!
Sasuke even turned back to Itachi, Shisui, and Guy, saying:
"Brother, Shisui, leave this to me and Naruto!"
Itachi and Shisui exchanged a glance and silently shook their heads.
They had intended to remind Sasuke to conserve his chakra, but seeing their "spirited" younger brother, they thought better of it.
It seemed that Sasuke wouldn’t change until he took a good beating...
So, they decided to sit back and watch, waiting for the right moment to offer support.
After all, their chakra reserves were only two to three-tenths full after the previous battles.
However, Guy was still eager to join the fray.
As one of Haneda’s designated "nuclear options," he was determined to make a significant impact.
Unfortunately, Itachi and Shisui held him back.
Meanwhile, the battle up front had already begun!
By the time Sasuke reached Kaguya through his reckless charge, he had already become familiar with the powers of his Susanoo and his ocular abilities, spending chakra lavishly.
He quickly grasped the nature of his new power, realizing that it was somewhat similar to the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, though markedly different.
In simple terms, Susanoo’s strength lay in its external manifestations, while the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, much like Naruto’s Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, provided an all-around enhancement to the user.
Being a natural genius, Sasuke quickly understood this.
As he reached Kaguya, he swung his sword towards her.
Kaguya calmly raised her right hand, and with a single palm strike, shattered Sasuke’s Susanoo entirely.
Along with Sasuke, who tumbled through the air, unable to counteract the force.
Seeing this, a flicker of panic flashed in Naruto’s eyes. He instinctively rushed forward to rescue Sasuke.
Only to be met with another Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack!
Naruto, like Sasuke, was instantly sent flying!
"Sasuke!!!" Naruto, tumbling through the air, yelled in alarm as he watched Sasuke plummet toward the lava.
Suddenly, Sasuke’s figure appeared beside Naruto, grabbing the airborne Naruto and coldly admonishing him:
"Idiot, stop focusing on saving me and pay attention to the enemy in front of us."
"And lend me one of your Truth-Seeking Orbs."
"Oh." Naruto nodded, letting one of the Truth-Seeking Orbs behind him fall to Sasuke’s feet, transforming into a black platform.
Naruto, watching Sasuke manipulate the Truth-Seeking Orb, widened his eyes, seemingly asking how Sasuke knew how to use it.
Sasuke explained nonchalantly: "You really are an idiot. Didn’t you see that the old man handing out powers was sitting on the Truth-Seeking Orbs?"
"As for how I can use the Truth-Seeking Orbs…"
Sasuke rested his hand on his right eye, the Six Tomoe Rinnegan, and smirked:
"It’s simple. I’m a Six Paths user too!"
Naruto, catching on, asked: "Was that ability just now from your Rinnegan, Sasuke?"
This question made Sasuke want to hit him.
"You idiot! The enemy is right in front of us. Do you think I’d explain now?"
"Oh, right."
While Naruto and Sasuke were talking, Kaguya had silently used Amenominaka to open a space-time rift and appeared behind them.
Naruto and Sasuke’s chakra perception lagged a bit, and by the time they turned their heads, they were already caught in Kaguya’s chakra, their energy being drained!
They were being absorbed by Kaguya!
If this continued, they would die!!
And it would create unimaginable trouble for Haneda and the others to clean up!
Unlike Naruto and Sasuke’s anxiety, Kaguya was gently caressing their faces, lost in sorrow.
Looking at the young faces of her two grandsons, she seemed to see her sons, Hagoromo and Hamura, as children.
Back then, her two sons weren’t rebellious, nor did they defy her.
Black Zetsu, emerging with a sinister grin, was about to mock them when he noticed his mother’s emotional state and instead began recounting her struggles and Hagoromo’s betrayal.
However, just as he was about to speak, Shisui, in Sage Mode, used Kotoamatsukami to subtly influence Kaguya’s thoughts, deepening her immersion in her memories.
Genjutsu below the level of the Six Paths had little effect on someone like Kaguya, but that didn’t mean it was entirely ineffective!
Especially when Kaguya was already emotionally vulnerable!
At this moment, it was easy for her to fall under a powerful genjutsu’s influence!
Especially with Kotoamatsukami, a technique that made one unaware they were being controlled by genjutsu!!!
Indeed, Shisui successfully placed Kaguya under a brief genjutsu!!
Meanwhile, Itachi utilized the Totsuka Blade’s potent genjutsu and sealing capabilities to drive Black Zetsu back and rescue Sasuke and Naruto:
"Even if you’re having a conversation, don’t forget about the enemy in front of you, Sasuke."
Itachi’s words made Sasuke’s face flush slightly.
"Got it, Brother. I’ll be careful next time… definitely…" Sasuke quickly responded.
Itachi didn’t react much to Sasuke’s words. Instead, he took advantage of Kotoamatsukami’s influence on Kaguya to attempt more.
After successfully rescuing Sasuke and Naruto, he urged: "Use the power in your hands! Quickly! Try to seal her!!!"
"Huh?" Naruto’s brain was still half a beat behind, but his battle instincts kicked in, prompting him and Sasuke to act in unison.
Flanking Kaguya, they attacked from both sides.
Seeing Naruto and Sasuke’s hands, imbued with the power of Yin and Yang, closing in, Black Zetsu grew increasingly frantic:
"Mother! Dodge now!!!"
Once again, a dark space-time rift opened, and Kaguya used Amenominaka to escape.
As she observed these ninja with chakra far inferior to hers, her gaze grew serious, with a hint of determination.
If her sons, Hagoromo and Hamura, could betray her, why wouldn’t her grandsons?
She had to reclaim their chakra to deal with the enemies outside!!!
Black Zetsu also began scheming for Kaguya:
"Mother! We can separate the reincarnations of Indra and Asura! Break them down gradually!"
"With just Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui, they pose no threat to you!"
Hearing Black Zetsu’s words, Guy scratched his head, feeling as if neither his teammates nor his opponents were taking him seriously.
