Isshiki's mind was buzzing. His greatest fear had finally co true.
He watched Urashiki, who was backing away, his face filled with wariness, distrust, and even a hint of fear and anger.
He gnashed his teeth in hatred, utterly bewildered as to how the Ōtsutsuki clan could produce soone like Takeshiki?!
Not only was he insane, but he also slandered others everywhere?
He clearly wanted to devour him, yet he kept dragging him into things for no reason?
Takeshiki, where is your conscience?
"Don't make that face, it's not what you think."
Isshiki's face was filled with pain as he spoke, trying to control his emotions.
"That Takeshiki fellow is a lunatic, I..."
"Lunatic? Indeed!"
Urashiki recalled being thoroughly beaten by Takemi, losing so completely, and his pain was mixed with intense resentnt.
"But he said all his ideas ca from you, and he wants to embark on so 'Path to Godhood' with your will. Can you say you're innocent?!"
"I truly am innocent. Look at now, how am I any different from you?"
"Hmph, that bastard Takeshiki said it, and you did it."
"..."
"You killed Kaguya, devoured the Chakra fruit, and now you're just like this to avoid our investigation and pursuit."
"..."
"I never thought, Isshiki, that you would be so ruthless. And I never imagined you'd break the shackles of the rules and even unleash Takeshiki's ambition."
"..."
Isshiki felt his fists clench completely at that mont. He hadn't said anything, nor had he done anything.
It was all Takeshiki, it was Takeshiki!
He was the victim, so how had he beco the biggest mastermind now?
"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't do anything!"
Isshiki couldn't hold back. He loudly stopped Urashiki's words, then rubbed his brow and explained.
"It's all that Takeshiki. He's gone mad. He's talking nonsense. He's just framing . I've been wronged."
"Wronged?"
Urashiki sneered, still watching Isshiki warily as he spoke softly.
"Then, where did Kaguya go?"
"She was sealed."
Isshiki said helplessly, and Urashiki imdiately laughed at his words.
"Sealed? You sealed her? I don't think it was just sealed, was it? You killed her! There wasn't even a chance for Karma!"
"I didn't, she was sealed by others."
"What about the Chakra fruit?"
"The Chakra fruit was eaten by her..."
"Who was the one who nurtured the Chakra fruit?"
"..."
"You wouldn't try to say she attacked you, then used you as a sacrifice, and finally devoured the Chakra fruit, would you?"
"..."
Seeing Urashiki's 'you must think I'm an idiot' expression, Isshiki fell silent. He was truly numb now.
This was the truth, but he realized that saying it out loud sounded exactly like what that lunatic Takeshiki had said.
No one would believe it!
Isshiki felt a little lost. He didn't understand what was wrong with this world, why no one believed the truth anymore?
Instead, that lunatic Takeshiki, whatever he said, everyone believed?
Even he himself understood that if he didn't know the real story, he would probably believe Takeshiki's words.
"No matter what you think, Takeshiki's matter has nothing to do with ."
Isshiki took a deep breath, feeling his fists becoming harder and harder.
However, he still needed to explain thoroughly. This idiot Urashiki was his natural ally.
And Takeshiki was too difficult to deal with. He absolutely needed soone to cooperate with him.
"I am even a victim. That guy has already encountered and even forced to revive in a useless host, forcing to transfer Karma again."
"Hmph."
Urashiki snorted without speaking, his wary gaze seeming to say, 'Keep talking nonsense.'
"Moreover, if I were truly like him, could your Karma still escape?"
Isshiki had no choice, he could only speak in a 'threatening' manner.
"You just got yours, and my host can already unlock 'Stage Two,' and even our hosts are in the sa organization."
"Hiss."
Urashiki gasped, looking as if he had just escaped a tiger's mouth only to fall into a wolf's den.
"And don't think about all those ssy things, we have a common enemy now."
Isshiki sighed helplessly, continuing to speak, "Besides, I haven't been back for a thousand years. You're not the only one searching for and Kaguya, right?"
"Mmm."
Urashiki nodded thoughtfully, he wouldn't deny that point.
"There's also Momoshiki and Kinshiki."
"Exactly. When they all co, even if you don't trust , it'll be impossible for to escape from the three of you."
Although Isshiki felt this was very humiliating, he could only say it for the sake of his innocence.
"Once everything is handled, I will return with you under your supervision. As long as we return to the clan land..."
"...then you'll know whether I was lying or not."
The Ōtsutsuki clan's holand was on the other side of the starry sky. They not only possessed imnse power but also so unimaginable 'technologies.'
With these technologies, lies would have nowhere to hide.
"Then I... will tentatively believe you."
Although Urashiki didn't trust Isshiki from the bottom of his heart, given the circumstances, he had no choice. After all, compared to Isshiki, he hated Takeshiki more.
That guy not only beat him up like this but also 'refined' him. This grudge had to be settled no matter what.
As for Isshiki...
As long as he was careful and stalled until Momoshiki and Kinshiki arrived, the crisis would be resolved.
"Then let's talk about Takeshiki's situation."
Thinking of this, Urashiki, though still maintaining his distance, slightly softened his deanor.
"What exactly is going on with that guy? How is he so strong?"
"The reason is simple, he accepted sothing unique to this world."
Isshiki didn't hide anything but spoke with a solemn expression.
"This world is sowhat complex. The people here can use Chakra."
"They are rely a group of inferior, low-level beings who can use Chakra." Urashiki interrupted with a disdainful look.
But Isshiki ignored him and continued, "Although their lives only last for a few short decades, the battles they experience in their lifeti are even more than what we've accumulated over thousands of years."
"Hmm?"
Urashiki frowned, and Isshiki said with so emotion, "Over the past thousand years, it seems soone has deliberately guided wars, and battles constantly erupt. Therefore, they receive training from birth."
"From birth?"
"Yes, so even go to the battlefield at a few years old, fighting continuously throughout their lives. Their combat experience and accumulation have been constantly passed down, refined, and continued to this day."
"And finally, Takeshiki learned it?"
Urashiki's expression grew more and more serious. A thousand years of continuous war, endless bloody battles.
Such accumulation of experience and tactical skills, constantly passed down and refined...
The thought of it was terrifying!
Ōtsutsuki had long lifespans and were naturally powerful. Even when encountering resistance from natives while plundering planets, they could easily crush everything.
Combat held no difficulty whatsoever for them. They had no need to accumulate combat experience or refine tactical skills. The power of their bloodline was already enough.
But now, soone had erged who had learned a thousand years of combat experience from others, refined and improved tactical skills, and also possessed the Ōtsutsuki bloodline.
