Chapter 450: Or maybe not.
When Yuna saw Urashiki Ootsutsuki’s new form, she couldn’t help but smile. Although it looked pretty weird, the power he radiated was no joke.
‘As expected, you can’t entirely trust in the words of someone who “knows” the future. Hisoka described him as a push-over, but this guy is actually quite strong. This might be fun~”
Yuna’s aura exploded as a battle-thirsty grin split Yuna’s face in half.
When Anko, who was still spectating, saw Yuna’s facial expression, she shook her head as a sigh escaped her lips.
“She’s snapped.”
A shiver went through Sasuke’s spine when he heard Anko’s short comment.
“S-Snapped? What exactly does that mean?”
Anko heard Sasuke’s questions, but instead of just answering, she lifted her head and looked at the sky.
“It means that things are about to get dangerous.”
Sasuke mimicked Anko’s movement, resulting in his eyes widening in surprise from what he saw.
It started snowing.
Meanwhile, Yuna shot toward Urashiki like a cannonball and slashed down her sword. Urashiki lifted his hand and created a black rod in his hand to block the blade, however…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“You dare to block my blade, mortal?! Ridiculous.”
And just as Yuna said, the black rod was cut by Yuna’s sword as if it was made out of tofu, causing Urashiki’s eyes to widen in surprise. He barely managed to jump back to dodge the blow, but when he did so, a chakra-coated fist brimming with wind chakra impacted his back, sending him flying away while leaving a few bloody gashes in his back.
“Hehe, How about sitting this one out, Naruto?”
“No way, you should sit this one out, nee-san. During Akatsuki’s invasion, I only got one, while you had the chance to fight three. Isn’t it time you allow your little brother to have some fun?”
“Three? Nonsense! The first two were controlled by the third, and since he controlled six bodies in total, I only defeated one-third of him, meaning I only fought one-third of a person, and that person even surrendered in the end. Aren’t you bulling me by depriving me of finally fighting a whole person?”
Naruto rolled his eyes, averted his eyes from Yuna, and focused on Urashiki instead. He knew that he couldn’t win an argument against Yuna’s shamelessness, so he decided not to even bother from the start.
Meanwhile, Urashiki’s anger grew even further when he realized that Yuna and Naruto didn’t take him seriously at all.
“YOU DAMN INSECTS, I WILL EXTERMINATE YOU!!! [AMENOSUBARUBOSHINOMIKOTO: GYOKKOO]” (Yes, that’s the official name of the attack. The English translation is: Heavenly Essential Wave Current Star Lord: Jeweled Box)
Urashiki pointed his palm at Naruto, and moments later, a purple energy ball appeared on the front of his hand. With a burst of chakra, dozens of these balls suddenly shot from Urashiki toward Naruto in complex paths, causing him to widen his eyes in surprise. He did not expect to suddenly face so many attacks that were clearly homing in nature.
Nevertheless, Naruto was not someone who got overwhelmed so easily, so he charged into Urashiki’s attack without hesitation. He might be capable of powerful ninjutsu, but he was a close-combat fighter at the end of the day.
As soon as the first sphere was in front of Naruto, he punched it, causing it to pop like a balloon, and while Naruto continued running towards Urashiki, he dealt with the other projectiles in the same way.
Urashiki sneered at him as he covered his hands with the same black substance he used to create the rod Yuna cut, and moments later, Naruto and Urashiki were engulfed in a close combat battle.
Frankly, Urashiki found the situation favorable to him, as he had significantly more combat experience than Naruto. This is the first time he took this form, so he can’t be sure about all of his abilities yet, but his close-combat techniques were still useable. He expected to easily overwhelm Naruto, however…
‘How!? How can he possibly keep up with me!? I probably spent more time honing my combat skills than this brat lived in total!’
Meanwhile, Naruto was entirely focused on the fight. Additionally, if Urashiki could hear what Naruto was currently thinking, he might cough out some blood.
‘He’s really skilled, I give him that, but this is nothing compared to nee-san.’
Naruto was someone who fought by trusting in his instincts to a vast degree, and since he had more or less gotten used to fighting Yuna, Urashiki, who was less skilled than her, wasn’t that much of a threat.
The duo continued fighting back and forth, while Urashiki couldn’t help but feel weird. After all, wasn’t he fighting three people? Where are the other two?
After exchanging another blow with Naruto, Urashiki briefly let his gaze wander, and when he found what he was looking for, his mind froze for a second, which earned him an uppercut from Naruto.
Urashiki was punched into the air, but instead of falling down, he started floating while looking at Yuna in hatred. She was currently sprawled on a couch, her head firmly placed on Hinata’s lap. Hinata was stroking Yuna’s hair with a happy expression on her face while occasionally feeding her some popcorn. Additionally, Urashiki could see another two women walking toward the couch from the corner of his eyes.
“What are you doing?”
When Yuna heard Urashiki’s question, she looked at him with a border expression.
“I got excited fighting someone strong, but then you used a technique that was mainly just raw power, which is incredibly dull. Oh, it had a nice name, though. Anyway, I got depressed that fighting you wouldn’t be as interesting as I thought, so I’m currently getting pampered by one of my future wives while allowing my younger brother to play with you.”
Urashiki’s whole body trembled in anger when he heard Yuna’s words. Somehow, she didn’t even see him as a threat and pushed him toward her brother as if he were a toy.
“YOU INSOLENT INSECT!!! I WILL KILL YOU!!! [AMENOSUBARUBOSHINOMIKOTO: RYUGU]”
Instead of the small purple ball that appeared during Urashiki’s previous attack, a gigantic purple ball flew towards Yuna, followed by a massive serpent, causing her to sigh.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“So you have chosen suicide, huh? Fine, this one will grant you your wish.”
Yuna’s sword appeared in her hand again, but before she could do anything with it, Naruto, holding a huge black chakra ball that was surrounded by a ring of wind chakra blades, appeared in front of her.
“Nee-san, he is my toy. Don’t break him.”
Yuna only shrugged her shoulders and opened her mouth, resulting in Hinata feeding her another piece of popcorn.
Meanwhile, Naruto focused on Urashiki and tossed the ball he was holding towards him.
“[Massive Bijuudama Rasenshuriken]”
“Too short. Weak.”
Naruto ignored Yuna’s comment as the two attacks collided. They contested with each other for a short moment before Naruto’s jutsu brought through and engulfed Urashiki as he screamed in pain.
Naruto’s eyes widened, and his chin hit the ground when he saw how easily he overcame Urashiki’s attack.
Yuna saw Naruto’s current state of mind and chuckled in amusement.
“Well, now you broke your own toy.”
“How?”
“A technique you had already refined for some time against an attack he came up with on the spot. The outcome is obvious.”
“But, I wasn’t done having fun yet.”
“Well, those Oootsuki are supposed to be pretty sturdy, so maybe he survived?”
Moments later, a small thud was heard as a body fell to the ground a few meters away from Yuna.
“Or maybe not.”
