"'Boom!!!' A dull thud of a punch echoed. Itachi Uchiha's entire body was instantly blasted into powder!"
"'What's going on?!'" Instead of the expected burst of flesh and blood, there were only scattered, unknown fragments. Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki's entire demonic face froze in surprise.
"'Is this guy not human?'" While Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki was confused, the fragments had already silently condensed behind him.
"'Fire Style: Great Fire Dragon Jutsu!'" Itachi Uchiha, who had reappeared, formed hand seals and unleashed a Fire Style jutsu towards Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki's back!
"'Hmm?'" The intensely burning Fire Style hit Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki's back, but it felt like a tickle.
"'What's going on? You actually revived?!"'" Feeling a strange sensation on his back, Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki turned around and saw Itachi Uchiha completely restored, becoming even more confused.
"'Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Flower Claw Red!!!'" Seeing Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki turn around, Itachi's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he instantly spat out a series of small fireballs like seeds of the phoenix sage flower!
"'You're asking for death!!!'" Seeing the flames surging towards him, Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki sneered and revealed the purple Rinnegan in his palm again!
Swish!!! Instantly, all the flames were absorbed into the Rinnegan.
"'Something's wrong!!!'" At this moment, Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki's Byakugan clearly saw that within the fireballs Itachi Uchiha spat out, there were hidden shuriken!
"'Low-level creature, you're quite cunning!!!'" Sensing the shuriken hidden within the fireballs, Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki wasn't stupid. He immediately realized that Itachi Uchiha was trying to lure him into absorbing the fire ninjutsu with the Rinnegan, so that Itachi could take the opportunity to use the shuriken to pierce his Rinnegan!
Thus, Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki quickly turned his palm into a fist, protecting his Rinnegan, and abandoned absorbing the fire ninjutsu. Instead, he directly shattered the Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Flower Jutsu with a single punch!
"'He noticed with his Byakugan, huh? It seems this guy, despite his large build, isn't a brute…'" Seeing Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki's actions, a hint of anxiety involuntarily appeared on Itachi Uchiha's face.
"'You dare to play tricks on me? I will absolutely not let you go!!!'" Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki roared, and a red light flashed on his back. Dozens of weapons shimmering with red light instantly shot towards Itachi Uchiha!
"'Since the sneak attack failed, let's go straight into close combat and find a way to destroy his Rinnegan!!!'" Itachi Uchiha instantly made up his mind. Facing the various weapons launched by Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki, he did not dodge. Instead, relying on his immortal reanimated body, he charged forward!
Clang!!!
A metallic collision sound rang out. One of Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki's weapons directly severed Itachi Uchiha's right arm. A look of disbelief flashed in Itachi's eyes, and his advancing body suddenly stopped. Instead, he dodved to the side!
"'There's no choice…'" Itachi Uchiha had no choice but to dodge because he suddenly realized that after his arm was severed by the red glowing weapon, it did not immediately regenerate!
Quickly creating distance from Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki, Itachi Uchiha examined his severed arm. As expected, he found that his broken arm was not regenerating. The floating fragments were slowly re-condensing, and at this rate, it would probably take ten days to fully regenerate his arm…
"'After being hit by those red glowing weapons, it seems difficult to recover…'" Itachi Uchiha's expression became extremely grim. He had intended to use his immortality to deal with Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki, but now it seemed that plan was completely unfeasible…
What Itachi didn't know was that every ninjutsu Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki used was similar to Yin-Yang Release, and those weapons were also products of this ninjutsu. Therefore, even if a reanimated body was damaged, it would be difficult to heal, just as if it had been injured by Yin-Yang Release…
"'Lowly creature, it seems you cannot recover after being hit by my attack…'" Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki roared triumphantly, looking at Itachi's severed arm and his grim expression.
"'This is bad. It looks like I'll have to fight for my life…'" Itachi Uchiha gritted his teeth and thought to himself…
"'...'"
"'About ten minutes later, on the vast expanse of the sea, the commotion caused by Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki and Itachi Uchiha's battle finally subsided.'"
"'Is it over just like that? How boring…'" Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki stood on the water's surface, looking at Itachi Uchiha, whose body had turned into scattered fragments, leaving only a head and some incomplete parts. He said dismissively.
At this moment, under Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki's Yin-Yang Release-like power, Itachi Uchiha's entire body had been blasted into pieces. In such a situation, even if Itachi Uchiha wanted to regenerate his body, it would probably take ten days to half a month.
"'Damn it, it seems my delaying tactic can only last this long…'" With a voice full of regret, Itachi Uchiha's remaining incomplete body sank directly into the sea.
"'Alright, the obstacle has been dealt with…'" Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki muttered, no longer paying attention to Itachi Uchiha sinking to the bottom of the sea. He returned to Killer Bee, who was already unconscious.
"'Now… I'll absorb the God Tree's chakra from you first…'" Lifting Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki, into the air like a small chicken, he aimed the Rinnegan in his palm at him and began to absorb the Eight-Tails' chakra…
"'...'"
"'On the other side, Naruto and the others were still fleeing across the sea. After all, this sea was too vast. They had sailed for three days and three nights to reach Turtle Island, and it would take a considerable amount of time to return now.'"
"'Damn it, when will we see land…'" Naruto, sitting on Gamabunta's back, complained anxiously.
"'There's no other way. Turtle Island is in the center of the ocean, quite a distance from the mainland…'" Bee from the Village Hidden in the Clouds said.
"'This is outrageous. Where did that monster come from? I've never seen him before,'" Jiraiya said with a troubled expression.
However, at this moment, Naruto's expression changed, and he looked back in disbelief. "'Damn it… that monster's malice has appeared again. He must have caught up!!!'"
"'He caught up? But how did he know which direction we were running in?!"'" Guy asked anxiously.
"'There's no time to think about that. With that monster's speed, he'll probably catch up to us in three minutes!'" Naruto said anxiously.
"'At this point, we can only escape to Mount Myōboku through space-time transfer!'" Jiraiya said at this moment. "'If we go to Mount Myōboku, that guy probably won't be able to catch up!!!'"
"'Mount Myōboku, huh? That's indeed a good choice!!!'" Naruto nodded upon hearing Jiraiya's words.
"'Okay, it's decided. Everyone, hide inside Gamabunta's stomach first, and then we'll go to Mount Myōboku through Reverse Summoning Jutsu!'" Jiraiya instructed, and everyone immediately took action. And behind them, Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki's figure appeared!!!
"'Found you. Let's see where else you can run!!!'" Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki grinned ferociously, stepping on towering waves and charging towards Naruto and the others!
"'Bun-ta, I'm counting on you!!!'" At this moment, Naruto and the others had already hidden inside Bun-ta's stomach.
"'Got it.'" Gamabunta nodded, then formed hand seals. "'Reverse Summoning Jutsu!'"
Boom!!! A massive cloud of smoke erupted on the sea, and Gamabunta's huge body disappeared.
"'Hmm… he disappeared…'" Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki arrived instantly at the spot where Gamabunta had disappeared, scanning his surroundings with his Byakugan.
"'This aura is… spatial fluctuation? It seems they escaped through space-time transfer…'" Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki said slowly, the ferocious grin on his face not fading at all.
"'These lowly creatures are quite good at escaping, but…'" A hint of amusement appeared on Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki's face. He then raised his hands, and a spatial rift tore open directly in front of him!
"'I'm also skilled in space-time techniques!!!'" Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki roared ferociously and plunged directly into the spatial rift, disappearing.
