The pervasive dust gradually settled, revealing Urashiki's face at the bottom of the deep pit, twisted and distorted by extreme pain!
Urashiki muttered, "How is this possible!?"
There was no deceitful ninjutsu confrontation, nor any thrilling dojutsu clash. Shinji simply threw two punches, pounding Urashiki until he began to doubt his life.
Floating in mid-air, Shinji lowered his gaze, coldly watching Urashiki at the bottom of the pit.
Because of the Rinnegan, the vast majority of ninjutsu and genjutsu were ineffective against the Otsutsuki. Therefore, the flexible and varied ninjutsu confrontations of the ninja world were often just a waste of chakra against an Otsutsuki, or even aiding the enemy.
Even if one or two ninjutsu managed to hit by luck, it would be inconsequential to an Otsutsuki.
Thus, when confronting an Otsutsuki, the most direct and effective method was actually taijutsu.
In the original timeline, when Naruto and Sasuke fought against the Otsutsuki, besides their usual 'Multiple Shadow Clone Technique', 'Rasengan', and the dojutsu of the Rinnegan and Sharingan, they used taijutsu the most.
Slowly landing, Shinji stepped forward and picked Urashiki up from the ground.
Those two punches just now were at full power output; an ordinary person would have been beaten into dust long ago. But Urashiki, this 'Kekkei Mora', obviously did not belong to the category of ordinary people. Having recovered his senses, he fiercely grabbed Shinji's arm with both hands, trying to break free from Shinji's grip.
"Tch!"
Shinji spat lightly and slammed Urashiki onto the ground.
Then, Shinji kicked up with his leg, launching Urashiki into mid-air. He turned and delivered a flying kick, sending Urashiki flying. Subsequently, his whole body turned into an afterimage, catching up to and surpassing the flying Urashiki, and fiercely threw another punch behind Urashiki!
Bang bang bang...
For several consecutive rounds, Shinji hit Urashiki back and forth in the air like playing ping pong!
"Damn it! Damn it!"
Urashiki's Rinnegan had now gradually adapted to Shinji's speed, barely able to capture Shinji's movements.
But he had long lost the initiative. Not to mention his body was filled with black rods by Shinji, preventing him from casting his dojutsu freely, just the series of blows just now had already seriously injured him.
So amidst his anger, fear gradually bred in his heart.
He had realized that he was completely no match for Shinji in taijutsu. The gap between the two sides was so large that he couldn't even make the most basic counterattack. If this continued, he would definitely die at Shinji's hands without any accident!
Under the threat of death, Urashiki burst out with his strongest pupil power, enduring the interference of Shinji's black rods, and activated the 'Thousand Paper Cranes Shunshin'.
Whoosh...
Shinji's attack missed, and Urashiki's body turned into fluttering paper cranes in front of him.
In the next instant, Urashiki appeared dozens of meters away from Shinji. While staring fixedly at Shinji, he frantically pulled out the black rods stuck in his body, the horror in his eyes almost overflowing.
Shinji looked back, glanced coldly at Urashiki, and his figure flashed.
"How is this possible!?"
Urashiki was greatly shocked, then was hit by Shinji's punch, flying backwards like a cannonball again, smashing fiercely onto the ground.
In that instant just now, Urashiki activated his Blue Rinnegan, initiating the time reversal dojutsu.
This jutsu of his could briefly reverse time to a few seconds ago, so theoretically, he could see through any enemy attack. Because this move was not insight or prediction at all, but similar to 'loading a save file' in a game.
But even so, he failed to dodge Shinji's strike just now and was smashed fiercely in the face by Shinji's punch.
Struggling to get up from the ground, Urashiki's face was full of horror: "How... how did you do it?"
Facing Urashiki's question, Shinji responded with a cold snort.
At a time like this, he wouldn't smugly explain anything like some villains. Eliminating the enemy was the key. He had no interest in finding a sense of superiority over the enemy!
Urashiki was just overly terrified. Soon he realized that the enemy in front of him also mastered time-controlling dojutsu. The opponent only needed to use dojutsu to interfere with his dojutsu to silently cancel out his advantage of time reversal.
So he hurriedly activated 'Yomotsu Hirasaka', preparing to flee.
The black rods had limited interference on a 'Kekkei Mora', so although Urashiki was filled with black rods by Shinji, he still successfully activated his dojutsu.
Instantly, black pixel-like blocks appeared out of thin air, rapidly folding and expanding to open a space portal.
Urashiki glared fiercely at Shinji: "I will be back..."
Whoosh...
Before Urashiki finished speaking, Shinji flashed in front of him, reached out and pressed on Urashiki's face, then rushed into the space portal together with Urashiki.
"You!?"
Urashiki, whose face was pressed by Shinji as they passed through the space portal, was full of astonishment.
He thought Shinji had already shown his maximum speed in the previous battle. Unexpectedly, Shinji could still increase his speed!
Shinji snorted lightly: "You don't need to come back, because you can't leave!"
If there were no black rods interfering with Urashiki, Shinji might not necessarily be able to stop Urashiki from opening 'Yomotsu Hirasaka' to escape. But with the interference of the black rods, even if the interference effect could only delay 'Yomotsu Hirasaka' by one second, it was enough for Shinji to stop Urashiki ten times, a hundred times.
Urashiki's face sank: "Damn it, do I have to use that move?"
At this time, Shinji said: "About time!"
Urashiki was stunned: "Ab... about time?"
Shinji ignored Urashiki, directly opened a space portal, then picked up Urashiki and stepped through, leaving this alien dimension connected by Urashiki's 'Yomotsu Hirasaka' and arriving at the moon's core.
"Wh... where is this?"
Urashiki looked around blankly.
Shinji closed his eyes to sense for a moment, then his gaze focused, and his right hand instantly pierced into Urashiki's chest.
Urashiki was horrified, hurriedly looked down, but didn't see flesh and blood flying. Instead, he saw Shinji pulling a dazzling ball of light out of his chest.
"Chakra? These are my chakra!"
Urashiki had a realization, but before he could react, he instantly lost consciousness because all his chakra was sucked away.
Undoubtedly, this was Shinji utilizing the Giant Tenseigan on the moon's ability to absorb chakra. Just like Toneri dealing with Naruto in the original timeline, he instantly drained all the chakra from Urashiki's body.
The reason he didn't use this move from the start was that Urashiki's eyes were very special; he could freely switch between Byakugan and Rinnegan. And the Giant Tenseigan cannot absorb the chakra of a target possessing Byakugan. Plus, Urashiki was a 'Kekkei Mora'; even if switched to the Rinnegan state, it would be very difficult to absorb his chakra.
So he had to severely injure Urashiki first, then seize the opportunity to use the Giant Tenseigan to deliver the final blow!
