Kaguya vs Isshiki (End)
🕑 Added 2024-09-19 20:37:41 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 482 ---
'His Kama is developing well. Even with an unsuitable vessel, Isshiki could unleash the power rivaling Otsutsuki Elder.' Kaguya thought calmly in her head.
'After a thousand years of despair, I thought he'd just curb his arrogance, but it seemed his resentment toward me is as strong as his pride.'
'Still, the way Isshiki used Kokugan and Shinjutsu is more sloppy than I formerly thought. From the look of it, he forcibly takes over his vessel without planting his Kama first. Well, I left him dying at the time.'
'Knowing Isshiki, he should have left a backup.'
'Maybe he secretly cultivated a suitable vessel?'
After exchanging some moves with Isshiki, Kaguya has already done an in-depth analysis of his ability. She could even deduce how much power he used based on how well he breathed.
Even though Kaguya didn't use her Byakugan or Tenseigan, Isshiki is like a book to her. Of course, most of her points were 'naturally' tied to how long she had observed him throughout their partnership.
Isshiki improved slightly, but it wasn't enough for him to contest against Kaguya. It was just his pipe dream.
Kaguya flicked her sleeve, and an invisible wave of energy crashed down to Isshiki, causing him to frown.
Isshiki wanted to use his Kama.
Unfortunately, the wave of energy Kaguya used isn't Chakra.
When Isshiki realized he couldn't absorb Kaguya's energy attack, he was one moment away from getting blasted.
"What?" Isshiki's Kama failed horribly. He's just like Momoshiki when he tried to scoff at Kaguya's attack.
'I no longer use Chakra, Isshiki.' Kaguya sees through Isshiki's bewildered look with a faint smirk. 'My very presence could affect the universe and its dimension.'
Yes, Kaguya used a wave of energy called Dimensional Prowess. Think of it as an extreme form of natural energy.
Meanwhile, seeing that his Chakra Absorption failed, Isshiki quickly used his ability to shrink and vanished from Kaguya's sight.
Sight, not sense.
BOOM! CRACK!
The energy wave hit the ground and created a ravine over ten miles.
Isshiki narrowly escaped and stared at the ravine in disbelief, 'This is not something Otsutsuki should have. My intuition is correct! After Kaguya got dragged away by the Sword God to another world, she gained extreme power!'
'Damn you, Kaguya. First, you trick me, and now this. You're playing around with me!'
'Do you think of me as a defenseless mouse in your cat game!'
Isshiki regretted that he didn't bring his subordinates with him. He also regretted disposing of those two monsters he created. He could have wielded the power of Otsutsuki God at this very moment.
Unfortunately, Isshiki was a cautious man. He likes to eliminate problems before they can happen.
Isshiki sighed ruefully, 'Calm down, Isshiki. Think about your situation carefully.'
"What were you thinking?" A voice brushed Isshiki's ears.
Since Isshiki was small, he could only see Kaguya's peering eyes.
'Shit!'
'Of course, she could detect me.'
Isshiki suddenly released his ability and returned something to its original size. A black pillar with red outlines appeared out of nowhere, pushing Kaguya away like a moving truck.
BOOM!
Kaguya smacked the pillar, and Isshiki felt a 'great' force traveling back to him, attacking his internal organs. Although Isshiki has the green gem and could recover from this injury, he still gasped for air momentarily.
Kaguya flash-stepped again, arriving before Isshiki instantly.
Isshilki's Kokugan twitched and sent several other black pillars against Kaguya.
Kaguya fluttered her white robe like a graceful butterfly and dodged every attack casually.
'Remember, Sister Kaguya. When you cornered someone, you must instill dominance and fear into their bones.' A faint voice rang in Kaguya's head, forming an image of a cunning young woman.
'When they made a mistake out of panic, that's your time to strike the iron while it's hot..'
'If you did it well enough, they will break!'
Before Isshiki's eyes, Kaguya waved her hand and seemingly threw a gentle fist.
Isshiki was still in his small state, so the gentle fist looked as big as a mountain. It was terrifying.
'Let's bet everything on this then.'
Isshiki pushed Sukunahikona to the limit, and the ground beneath him disappeared, leaving a several hundred-meter-deep hole. The scale is over five hundred meters of condensed gravel and dirt.
Kaguya raised her eyebrow, 'This is it. Kokugan's ability at its finest potential.'
'Shrinking all non-living objects...'
'All non-living materials, including raw elements and even space-time fabrics.'
"Take this, Kaguya!" Isshiki's veins popped because taxing his ability to the extreme consumed so much energy. He wouldn't use this method if Kaguya didn't push him this far.
'Sukunahikona: Small World's Explosion.'
Suddenly, a large mass exploded before Kaguya's eyes. The compressed ground is 'instantly' released at once.
That's over a hundred thousand tons of mass.
Kaguya was fascinated for a split second. Then, she exploded with a dangerous might that crushed everything before her.
SNAP!
The large mass of ground vanished from Isshiki's vision. He couldn't feel his connection to that mass anymore, meaning all that gravel and dirt had disappeared into nothingness.
'What was that power? How could someone like Kaguya wield such power?' His eyes dilated in disbelief.
'Not even the Otsutsuki Elder is this mysterious...'
A thousand questions ran through Isshiki's mind. He started questioning whether he could win against Kaguya. The chance became smaller and smaller as they fought.
Even if Isshiki somehow won this fight, he knew the mysterious woman from another world and Umeshiki on the sidelines wouldn't stay idle.
Kaguya made her moves, and countless thick, silver roots burst out from the depth of the ground. They launched themselves at Isshiki like a group of gigantic silver pythons.
'This trick again.' Isshiki's eyes detected faint life force from these silver roots, meaning he couldn't shrink them.
On top of that, he also couldn't absorb their energy because of Kaguya's weird prowess. His only choice is to dodge or respond with the same firepower.
"Come on..." He groaned and used his other ability to access timeless pocket dimensions, sending out dust that turned into many black cubes.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Black-red and silver lights clashed in the air, creating a strange contrast in the desolate plain. However, if one observes the clash, one would notice the black-red light becomes dimmer each second.
Blergh!
"Huh?" Isshiki coughed a mouthful of blood.
It was too sudden.
His vessel is failing rapidly.
Even with this pure and immense vitality provided by the Life Vein's green gem, it couldn't handle Isshiki's overconsumption against Kaguya's might.
At the same time, Isshiki's Kokugan also bleeds. A light headache struck his head and made him wince for a second.
"Not good!" Isshiki realized Kaguya would use this chance to finish him off. His left Byakugan locked on Kaguya, finding her just standing one hundred meters away from him,
Yes, Kaguya's just standing there menacingly.
Isshiki's eyes widened, "You..."
"You've been waiting for this!"
Kaguya chuckled, "What's the matter, Isshiki? Isn't this the final fight you wanted against me?"
"You at your strongest form, and me at my weakest..."
As Kaguya's mocking voice falls, the plain becomes dead silent.
Kaguya ignored Isshiki's horror look and shrugged, "I was playing around with you. I wanted to see if I could excavate more of the Kokugan's potential from its owner before forcibly taking it from you."
"That Byakugan is also not bad. I don't mind taking you, hehe." Kaguya giggled like an innocent maiden she was, something one rarely sees from the aloof goddess.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" Isshiki roared at the gloomy sky. His Chakra formed an ominous dark aura, making him feel like a miniature Ten-Tails.
"KAGUYA, I WILL KILL YOU!"
"I WILL KILL YOU!"
"I WILL KILL YOU!"
"I WILL KILL YOU!"
"I WILL KILL YOU!"
"I WILL KILL YOU!"
"I WILL KILL YOU!"
"I WILL KILL YOU!" Isshiki madly bombarded Kaguya with his projectiles, completely decimating the plain.
Kaguya remained unfazed as the projectiles couldn't touch her, no matter their size. Even with the extreme momentum, her invisible barrier could fend them off.
In fact, they just bounced off her barrier and bombarded the area around Kaguya.
Isshiki completely overused his ocular abilities, allowing them to mature much more.
Isshiki has gotten swallowed by madness. All this time, the odds of his survival are always zero.
No matter how rational someone was, it could break their mind.
What makes things worse is that Isshiki's pride was the most hurt in this situation. He felt he controlled everything but found himself dancing on Kaguya's palm.
Soon, Isshiki found himself kneeling on the ground like a motionless monk.
How ironic.
His eyes have lost their luster.
Kaguya stood before Isshiki, "How unfortunate. You can't fully reawaken Kokugan's true prowess, but this is also fine."
"Isshiki, aren't you curious why you couldn't see my life force with your eyes?"
"I will show you something interesting."
"Maybe seeing it will make you more accepting."
Isshiki looked up like a robot, activating his ocular ability to see one's life force. Yet, Isshiki trembled a second later as if he had seen a horrifying sight.
"You..."
"Monster..."
"No, you're wrong... I'm just Yunlong's wife." Kaguya answered before plucking Isshiki's eyes out and placing them in sterile containers.
With that, Isshiki's spirit died from extreme shock, leaving only a husk.
Before Isshiki died, he caught a glimpse of a giant shadow-like fire deep in the void.
Deep in that void is something Isshiki has never seen before.
An infinitely monstrous silver tree with branches stretching to galaxies, an eternal-like trunk surrounded by cosmic mists, lush silver-blue leaves that absorbed primordial light forces, and sturdy roots that overshadowed infinite dimensions.
That monstrous silver tree is none other than…
…
Kaguya's True Body!
