Even Kurama didn’t know if this move could really work. After all, it wasn’t in the original story. But Orochimaru still went ahead and pulled it off just by betting on that tiny chance—can you believe it?
But on the other hand...
Kurama chuckled. "On the other hand, you wouldn’t dare draw chakra from the ninja world, because if you did, you might accidentally wake up Kaguya’s true consciousness. Then you’d still lose."
"True," ’Kaguya’ nodded in agreent. "But just this power alone is already enough to deal with you."
"Oh?" Kurama narrowed his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, Sasuke appeared right in front of Kaguya, his sword crackling with lightning as it ca slashing down like a bolt from the blue.
At the sa ti, Naruto raised his hands high, forming a giant Rasengan big enough to rival Kurama, and smashed it down toward ’Kaguya’ from above.
The attacks were already at point-blank range. For most people, such a sudden strike would be nearly impossible to dodge. But ’Kaguya’ had already been on guard against Sasuke’s space-ti ninjutsu. The mont Sasuke appeared, she raised her fist and struck.
"Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack!"
Countless huge phantom fists appeared out of thin air, moving at a speed on par with space-ti ninjutsu. In the instant before Sasuke could even react, they slamd into him. The overwhelming force exploded in an instant, smashing him straight into the ground.
The earth cracked apart, mountains crumbled, and the entire surface was shattered to rubble.
"All that... in just one hit..." Kurama’s pupils shrank.
Sure, he could cause that kind of damage too—but only if he went all out. Kaguya had turned the whole Land of Iron’s ground into a field of broken stone with just one Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack.
Naruto’s massive Rasengan was about to land.
’Kaguya’ looked up at it and gave a cold smile before vanishing from sight.
"Teleportation?" Naruto’s eyes widened.
The next mont, his senses flared with alarm. Even as he felt chakra closing in, he didn’t have ti to dodge before sothing grayish-white, like a piece of wood, stabbed into his back—and his body began to vanish before his own shocked eyes.
Along with his body disappearing, so did the strange weapon—Kaguya’s deadly Ash-Killing Bones.
"Don’t bother hiding," ’Kaguya’ said coldly, holding one Ash-Killing Bone in each hand. "Shadow clones are indeed useful, but transformation jutsu ans nothing to my Byakugan."
The black Rasengan slamd into the ground, but in the next second it turned into a puff of smoke. Naruto stepped out of the smoke, his face dark.
"What do you an ’your’ Byakugan? Those eyes belong to the real Kaguya—what do they have to do with you?"
Boom—
The shattered Susano’o flew into the air as Sasuke landed next to Naruto, clutching his chest. "That hit didn’t just break my Susano’o—it even injured . If I hadn’t used Anotejikara to force myself out at the last second, I might have lost the ability to fight just now."
"She’s strong," Sasuke said plainly. "Even stronger than with my Karma mark activated."
"I agree," Naruto clicked his tongue. "She’s stronger than even when I’m in Tenseigan Mode. Looks like normal tactics won’t work on her anymore."
Then Naruto’s eyes lit up. He turned to Sasuke with excitent. "Should we... use that move?"
Sasuke froze for a second, then his expression turned deadly serious. "You’re sure you want to use it?"
"In this situation, we have no choice," Naruto said, clenching his fists.
In the distance, ’Kaguya’ frowned. "No matter what move you use, it won’t work on . All ninjutsu and genjutsu are useless. The only things you can use against are taijutsu and senjutsu."
"Hmph." Naruto gave a small snort, the corner of his mouth curling into a confident grin. "Once you’ve seen the power of ’that move,’ you’ll understand, right, Kurama?"
This last "Kurama" was shouted loud and clear, Naruto’s eyes full of expectation.
Kurama: "..."
No one even told what ’that move’ is!
What are you two talking about? Are you leaving out? Why am I the only one who doesn’t know?
Wow~ These two actually ca up with so secret counter move behind my back and didn’t even tell . Naruto, you’ve changed. You used to tell everything...
Kurama stared blankly at the confidence on Naruto’s and Sasuke’s faces, while his own head was full of question marks. If this isn’t...
"Kurama, are you stupid?" Sasuke rolled his eyes. "That move is that move."
"W-Which move?" Kurama’s face was full of confusion.
Now even Naruto couldn’t hold it in. He looked at Kurama with open disgust. "Forget it if you don’t know. Sasuke and I will just show you. This is our Six Paths Power Trio’s absolutely unbeatable technique!"
’Kaguya’ suddenly felt sothing was off, but she still didn’t know what they were talking about. "But no matter what technique it is, it’s useless against now."
"Hmph." Naruto snorted in contempt, turning to look at Sasuke. "Sasuke, you go first."
"No problem." Sasuke removed the hand covering his chest, gave ’Kaguya’ a confident look, then took a deep breath, his expression calm. "Orochimaru, last year I bought a bag. Super durable."
Orochimaru: ???
Kurama: ???
Why does that sound like an insult?
’Kaguya’s’ mouth twitched. She didn’t understand what it ant, but... it was annoying.
"Sage Art: Tailed Beast Bomb!" Naruto took the chance to throw a Tailed Beast Bomb.
’Kaguya’ clapped her hands together, swatting the Tailed Beast Bomb away. "Distracting with words and then sneaking an attack? Is that your so-called unbeatable move?"
"Of course not." Naruto grinned brightly, looking completely wholeso. "Our move’s na is... Konohagakure-Style Ultimate Ninjutsu Secret Art: If I Can’t Kill You, I’ll At Least Gross You Out Technique!"
Kurama: "..."
I didn’t teach him that.
"Take another Sage Art: Tailed Beast Bomb!" Naruto moved both hands, hurling one bomb after another.
’Kaguya’s’ face darkened. She quickly ford hand seals. "Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!"
A powerful gust swept down from the sky. The incoming Tailed Beast Bombs never even reached her before they were scattered into nothing by the raging wind.
’Kaguya’ locked her eyes on Naruto, the All-Killing Ash Bones forming again. "Since you love showing off so much, I’ll start with you."
Sasuke looked at ’Kaguya’ with a serious face. "I heard your parents died during the war? Where are their graves? I can pay them a visit for you soday."
’Kaguya’ froze completely.
Sasuke nodded as if suddenly enlightened. "Oh, right, your student’s dead too. If I rember right, your student was Tsunade-sama’s little brother. I’ll ask her about it when I get back."
’Kaguya’ kept her lips tightly pressed together, her white eyes staring at Sasuke like they’d turned into blood-red Sharingan. "Trying to throw off with words? That works well on normal people, but for , it’s only so effective."
After all, as a trained ninja, this level of provocation was easy to handle...
"Really? But now that you’re like this, you can’t have children anymore. Your parents wouldn’t be angry about that, right? Or are you afraid your child would end up like Nawaki and die too, so you decided to just stay alone forever?" Sasuke said innocently. "That’s so sad."
Orochimaru: "..."
No way in hell! Sasuke, you’re looking for trouble!
Sasuke’s mouth curled up like a check mark.
