Chapter 470 Bai Qi and Zi Long: The Battle Reaches its Peak
In the depths of space, the shattered wreckage of a starship, like a floating tombstone, slowly rotates beneath the dark cosmos.
The scattered turbulent energy transformed into visible purple arcs of electricity, crackling and weaving together a scene of despair.
The remaining five high-ranking members of the Otsutsuki clan—Otsutsuki Sōjin, Otsutsuki Fūrin, Otsutsuki Yūgen, Otsutsuki Kūkū, and Otsutsuki Kūyō—floated in the void.
They stared intently at Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju below, their pupils surging with shock and rage, as if they wanted to devour the two alive.
Otsutsuki Kūki subconsciously clenched his fists, cursing inwardly, "Those two good-for-nothings, Sakuya and Chiiwa, can't even handle the natives, making us lose face!"
Just moments before, their proud elite clansmen, Sakuya and Chiiwa, suffered a crushing defeat in their battle against Madara and Hashirama.
Even the Ōtsutsuki clan's emblem, symbolizing their glory, was shattered.
For the Otsutsuki clan, who consider themselves the masters of the universe and have always been arrogant, this was not only a defeat in terms of combat strength, but also a deeply ingrained humiliation.
A violent black chakra spread out from the four of them, forming an invisible shockwave.
The surrounding cosmic dust was shaken and scattered, and even the surfaces of several asteroids in the distance developed fine cracks. Some small meteorites even disintegrated directly in the shock wave.
Ōtsutsuki Mikaki's breathing grew heavier, his chest heaving violently, and the killing intent in his eyes almost materialized: "This grudge will be avenged! These people will pay a thousandfold price!"
"Useless! A complete and utter bunch of useless trash!"
Otsutsuki Mikazuki was the first to lose his temper, and his deep roar exploded in the void like thunder, causing ripples to spread through the surrounding energy turbulence.
His eyes, sharp as a poisoned blade, were fixed on the direction where Sakuya and Chiiwa had suffered a crushing defeat: "They couldn't even defeat two native ninjas; they've utterly disgraced the Otsutsuki clan!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and waved it, and a stream of condensed black chakra roared out, heading straight for a starship wreckage with a diameter of tens of meters not far away.
"boom!"
The wreckage was instantly blasted into dust, and the fragments drifted in the void for a moment before being completely swallowed up by the energy turbulence.
Otsutsuki Furin watched coldly from the side, tapping her arm lightly with her fingertips, thinking to herself, "Migaki is still so impatient. The most important thing right now is to stabilize the situation, not to vent her anger."
"Since you are incapable of upholding the honor of your people, then let us meet them in person!"
Otsutsuki Mikaki took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, and turned to look at the three clansmen beside him, his tone carrying an unquestionable authority.
"The second match begins immediately! I want to see just what these people are capable of that they can make our elite troops look so pathetic!"
The black chakra around him gradually receded, but it still exuded a suffocating sense of oppression, clearly indicating that he was ready to make a move at any moment.
Otsutsuki Kugen raised an eyebrow slightly, a cold smile playing on his lips: "It should have been done long ago, to let these natives know that the majesty of the ruler of the universe is inviolable."
The three, Otsutsuki Furin, Kūki, and Kūyō, exchanged glances, their eyes revealing a clear killing intent and resolve.
After a brief discussion, the four reached a consensus—to send out the core fighting force of the new generation of their clan and make sure to avenge their previous defeat.
Immediately, Ōtsutsuki Mikaki waved to his clansmen behind him and said in a deep voice, "Hoshikawa, Cangming, engage in battle!"
Two figures emerged in response, their bodies enveloped in dense black chakra, like two black lightning bolts tearing through the void, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound.
It landed steadily in the center of the battlefield, creating a ripple of energy.
It was Otsutsuki Seikawa and Otsutsuki Cangming. When they landed, their feet were slightly bent to cushion the impact, and then they slowly straightened up, their auras fully unleashed.
These two are core combatants among the new generation of the Otsutsuki clan, and their strength far surpasses that of Sakuya and Chiiwa.
The black chakra surrounding his body was several times more powerful than that of his companions, condensing on his body surface like a tangible substance, forming a faint black halo.
It exudes a suffocating sense of oppression, causing the surrounding space to subtly distort.
Even more alarming was that Otsutsuki Seika was faintly surrounded by the violent aura unique to the Ten-Tails, and his dark pupils flashed with a scarlet light, clearly indicating that he was already the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki.
Otsutsuki Somei crossed his arms and glanced disdainfully at the crowd: "They're nothing but clowns, do they think they're worthy of our attention?"
Otsutsuki Seika took a step forward, the void beneath his feet slightly sinking, his figure standing tall like an ancient pine.
The black chakra around him suddenly surged, and the terrifying pressure of the Ten-Tails was released without reservation, covering the entire battlefield like a thick dark cloud.
His eyes were as cold as a frozen pool as he slowly swept over the group on the opposite side, his gaze lingering briefly on Naruto and Sasuke.
"In the next match, I will fight Cangming. Which of you dares to accept the challenge? Don't hide like cowards!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he deliberately released an even stronger aura, trying to suppress his opponent with his imposing presence.
"I'll do it!"
Almost the instant Otsutsuki Seika finished speaking, Naruto's impassioned voice resounded across the battlefield, carrying an aura of fearlessness.
A burst of brilliant golden chakra erupted from his body, surging forth like a volcanic eruption.
A massive phantom of the Nine-Tailed Fox slowly emerged behind him, its fox head held high, golden fur fluttering in the wind, emitting a deafening roar; the Asura Nine-Tailed Fox mode had been activated.
Golden chakra and black chakra from the Milky Way faced each other from afar, colliding to create crackling sparks of energy, forming a stark contrast.
Naruto slammed his feet into the ground, lunging forward half a step, his fists clenched, his eyes gleaming with unwavering determination: "Your opponent is me! I'll show you that you can't be underestimated!"
"Let me do it!"
Sasuke's voice followed closely behind, carrying a chilling killing intent.
He gripped the Kusanagi sword at his waist, and with a slight flick of his wrist, the sword gleamed with a chilling light. A faint wisp of sword energy escaped from the tip of the sword, slicing through the void.
The Rinnegan slowly rotated in its socket, radiating a chilling killing intent.
He and Naruto took a step forward at the same time, their chakra intertwining to form a solid defensive line, their determination to take the initiative in battle evident.
Sasuke stared coldly at Xinghe and Cangming, his indifference radiating confidence: "It's fine if the two of you come at me together. I'll make you pay for underestimating us."
"etc."
Just as Naruto and Sasuke were about to leap into the air, two swift figures flashed past them as if by teleportation, creating a gust of wind.
It stood firmly in front, blocking their path.
Bai Qi and Zi Long moved with lightning speed, yet their auras instantly overwhelmed Naruto and Sasuke, clearly indicating that they were far more powerful.
Naruto was slightly taken aback, then frowned. He was about to ask a question when Bai Qi stopped him with a look.
The person on the left is wearing a dazzling golden armor, which is made up of countless intricately carved golden plates.
A faint energy glow flowed across the nail plates, as if they were breathing and rising and falling with life.
The shoulder armor was shaped like sharp scythes, with edges that gleamed with a cold light; the breastplate was engraved with intricate and mysterious patterns, within which flowed golden energy, revealing its extraordinary origins—it was Bai Qi.
The person on the right is also wearing a golden armor, but this armor is predominantly blue-gold, with smoother and sharper lines on the armor plates.
The shoulder armor is stacked like dragon scales, and two curved wing armors extend from the back. It exudes a powerful aura as it moves slightly in the wind. It is indeed the Purple Dragon.
He stood tall and straight like a pine tree, his black hair fluttering in the wind, his eyes sharp as a hawk, fixed on the enemy in front of him.
Bai Qi slowly turned his head, nodded slightly to Naruto and Sasuke, and said in a calm and firm tone, with an undeniable power: "Leave this battle to us."
"The battles of the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki require more precise tactics and control of power; the slightest carelessness can affect the surrounding area."
"You should rest for now and conserve your strength for the upcoming battles."
He was well aware of the destructive power of the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki. If Naruto and Sasuke were to rashly take action, they would be caught in a fierce battle and would be put on the defensive when facing the four high-ranking members of the Otsutsuki clan.
Zilong added, "Don't worry, we'll handle them and won't cause you any trouble."
The three peaks, suspended in the void behind, nodded slightly in agreement, their eyes showing a hint of approval: "Be careful, they are not weak."
"As the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki, Hoshikawa not only possesses a vast amount of chakra and masters various Rinnegan abilities, but his taijutsu has also reached the top level of the Otsutsuki clan; Cangming's taijutsu is no less impressive, and he excels in the art of using the opponent's force against them in close combat, so we must not underestimate him."
His gaze swept over the golden holy armor worn by Bai Qi and Zi Long.
Both of these Saint Cloths are the latest technological products of the ancestral planet, forged from the rarest star gold ore in the universe.
It can store a massive amount of energy, and when worn, it can greatly enhance the user's defense, strength, and speed, as well as strengthen the impact of physical attacks.
It is a truly powerful piece of equipment that combines offense and defense, and it is also the key trump card for the two to deal with enemies with high physical strength.
"rest assured."
Bai Qi clenched his fist slightly, his knuckles striking the golden armor with a crisp sound.
As he moved, the Gold Cloth instantly shone with a dazzling golden light, and all the mysterious patterns on the breastplate were activated.
Golden energy flowed between the armor plates like veins, and his power and speed suddenly surged, becoming several times stronger than before.
"My goal has always been victory, and I will not allow any enemy to cross the line. Besides, this Saint Cloth was originally prepared to deal with top-tier physical combat experts."
Shiryu slowly raised his hand, and his chakra rapidly flowed into his golden armor.
The cyan-gold armor plates instantly shone with a lustrous sheen, and the wing armor on their backs unfolded slightly, swirling with a faint energy.
"Let's finish this quickly and decisively, without any unnecessary delays. No matter how strong their physical skills are, they can't withstand the power of our Gold Cloths."
Before the words were finished, Bai Qi and Zi Long moved at the same time.
With the aid of the Gold Cloth, the speed reached its limit, and the friction between the armor plates and the air produced dazzling golden and cyan-gold light bands.
Like two streaks of light shooting straight ahead at the Otsutsuki Galaxy and the Otsutsuki Azure Sea, the armor plates ripped through the void with a sharp, piercing sound.
Two clear afterimages were left in the void, and the surrounding energy turbulence was driven by this rapid movement, forming a small vortex.
Xinghe and Cangming's expressions changed slightly, clearly not expecting their opponent to be so fast. They subconsciously tensed their bodies and prepared for battle.
Bai Qi arrived in front of Otsutsuki Cangming first, and quickly gathered energy in his right hand.
A golden, sickle-shaped energy blade instantly took shape, its blade several meters long and its edges gleaming with brilliant golden light.
With a sharp, whistling sound, it slashed out: "Counterattack Scythe!"
"Hmph, useless piece of trash who only knows how to rely on weapons!"
