“Hagoromo, what exactly was your purpose, hiding in the Shinobi world for so many years?”
Shin asked Hagoromo.
“If I told you, would you spare me?” Hagoromo asked calmly.
“I’d love to lie to you, but I’ll be honest—NO.”
Shin shook his head. It was simple enough for him to discover Hagoromo’s plans—he could just read his memories.
“Since that’s the case, why should I tell you??”
Hagoromo prepared to fight to the death. Since there was no way out, he might as well take Shin down with him.
“Well said. Since you won’t talk, I’ll just have to look through your memories myself—”
Shin smiled calmly.
“Then let’s fight to the bitter end!”
The Truth-Seeking Orbs behind Hagoromo combined to form the Sword of Nunoboko, and he charged towards Shin.
“The fish will surely die, but the net won’t break,” Shin said calmly.
This was Shin’s domain. Did Hagoromo really think he could take Shin down with him? Even if Hagoromo’s strength doubled, it would be impossible.
“<Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack!>”
Shin’s fists blurred, unleashing countless massive punches, each one like a nuclear bomb.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
The earth roared, and the super-gravity dimension was ravaged by Shin’s full-power Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack.
Yes, Shin showed no mercy even when destroying his own space.
Hagoromo was the most pitiful. He had just declared a fight to the death, but now, he was being pulverized by Shin’s fists—
—Even a body as hard as steel couldn’t withstand the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack’s blows. The Sword of Nunoboko was shattered by the punches.
A single Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack completely shattered all of Hagoromo’s confidence.
“Your strength… isn’t even enough to make me use my full power.” Shin shook his head in disappointment.
————
“Where did you come from?”
Hagoromo lay on the ground, looking up at Shin with intense hatred.
The Shinobi world couldn’t have produced such a monster—even the Ōtsutsuki Clan… His strength was on a whole other level.
“Where did I come from?”
Shin paused for a moment, then smiled meaningfully.
“I came from a place you don’t know.”
Strictly speaking, Shin wasn’t from this world. He was a transmigrator, brought to this world by the System.
“So you really aren’t from the Shinobi world.” Hagoromo understood. How did he achieve this strength? Logically, only with the power of the God Tree could one reach this level—
—All members of the Ōtsutsuki Clan basically relied on the God Tree to enhance their strength.
Shin, however, relied on the System’s Replication Cards. Without the System, he wouldn’t have reached his current level of power.
————
“Since I’ve let you in on a secret, you can satisfy my curiosity in return.” As Shin spoke, he reached out to grab Hagoromo, preparing to read his memories.
But Hagoromo naturally wouldn’t allow it, holding his Six Paths shakujō and preparing to resist again—
“Still want to resist? Didn’t you get beaten enough earlier?”
“<Gentle Fist Art: Eight Trigrams Three Hundred Sixty-One Palms!>”
Shin assumed the Gentle Fist stance. A Ba Gua pattern enveloped Hagoromo, who was right in the center.
Then, countless palm and fist strikes rained down on Hagoromo, hitting him from all sides.
After being struck by Shin, the chakra wrapped around Shin’s hands sealed Hagoromo’s acupoints.
Though Hagoromo was created by Kaguya, the Gentle Fist’s pressure point strikes were still effective against him.
Spitting out blood, Hagoromo collapsed to the ground.
Already under the immense pressure of the Super-Gravity Dimension, and with his chakra now sealed by Shin, Hagoromo couldn’t even stand.
The Gentle Fist was effective against Hagoromo not because the technique was so powerful, but because of who was using it.
Only Shin could seal Hagoromo’s chakra.
“No power to resist now, right?”
Shin chuckled, placing his hand on Hagoromo’s head, extracting his soul and reading his memories.
After reading all of Hagoromo’s memories, Shin understood his purpose. It was also for the God Tree.
Other members of the Ōtsutsuki Clan wanted the God Tree Fruit, the chakra fruit. Hagoromo was the same—But Hagoromo didn’t want a one-time deal. He wanted to treat the Shinobi world as a nursery for leeks, harvesting them crop after crop.
“So that’s how it is. Then your soul can turn to ash.”
Shin glanced at Hagoromo’s extracted soul, then used his ocular power to completely destroy it. Hagoromo was dead, his body lying on the ground.
“This is my space, after all. Leaving a corpse here isn’t good.”
Shin considered for a moment, then used Amaterasu to burn Hagoromo’s body to ashes.
“The Super-Gravity Dimension is a bit severely damaged.” Shin looked around.
The destruction caused by the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack was quite extensive. But it didn’t matter. Besides affecting the aesthetics, there were no other consequences.
Using Yomotsu Hirasaka, he left the Amenominaka space and appeared in the outside world.
————
“You’re alone? Where is that rebellious son??”
As soon as Shin came out, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki impatiently asked him.
“He’s already dead. You wouldn’t be sad, would you?”
Shin looked at Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, wondering if she would be saddened by Hagoromo’s death.
Looking at Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, she didn’t seem that heartless.
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki was silent for a moment. Though this was the result she wanted, hearing the news, she couldn’t help but feel a little emotional.
When she created them, though she intended them to be tools, she had developed some feelings for them while raising them—This was why she was so angry when she was sealed by her two sons.
“By the way, what about Hamura…” Kaguya Ōtsutsuki’s brow furrowed.
Now that Hagoromo was dead, what about her second son, Hamura?
“You’re looking for Hamura Ōtsutsuki? Congratulations, you won’t find him. He was killed by me long ago, and not even his bones remain.”
Shin told Kaguya Ōtsutsuki this news.
