Kapitel 89: Chapter 89: Rebellious Ōtsutsuki Takuya's
Read 20+ Chapter's Ahead in Patreon
From hundreds of meters away, Kyosuke accurately detected the movements of his enemies.
"They've started hunting me down?"
"And with just this scale…"
Looking at the distant squad, he instinctively frowned. It wasn't because there were too many enemies—on the contrary, Kyosuke found the search party too small.
Over the past few days, he had launched more than a dozen attacks.
The enemy teams ranged in size—sometimes just two or three individuals, and at other times seven or eight puppet soldiers moving together in unison.
The points he gained fluctuated, mostly hovering around the level of genin, earning him anywhere from 20 to 100 points per kill.
Even so, he had managed to accumulated nearly 8,000 points in total.
Pulling out a uniquely designed kunai, Kyosuke used his excellent throwing skills to hurl it quickly toward the puppet squad in the distance.
After several days of battle, he had gradually come to understand the characteristics of the Moon's clan Puppets.
First, these creatures had no vital points—neither their hearts nor necks were vulnerable to fatal attacks.
In essence, they were nothing more than animated corpses.
Second, slashing attacks had minimal effect on them.
The most effective method was always to use high-powered ninjutsu to completely destroy the puppets.
Alternatively, a member of the Hyūga Clan could use the Byakugan to locate and destroy the "Spiritual core" hidden within the puppets' bodies.
Lacking that ability, Kyosuke could only rely on his high-powered ninjutsu to take them down.
The kunai sliced through the rain and reached the puppets in an instant.
At that moment, the puppet squad detected Kyosuke's presence.
Three puppets raised their palms in unison, and in the next moment, a barrage of light Chakra orbs engulfed the spot where Kyosuke had been standing.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"Is it over?" The puppet master hiding in the distance hesitated slightly in his thoughts.
Over the past few days, their enemy had appeared and disappeared like a phantom, causing no small amount of trouble for the lower-ranking members of their clan.
To be honest, the puppet master himself didn't believe the fight could end so easily.
Zzzzt!
The crackling sound of Chidori Stream drew the man's attention.
Using the Flying Thunder God technique, Kyosuke teleported into the mitsd of the enemy formation and unleashed the full power of Chidori Stream, instantly shattering the puppets, none of which exceeded the level of a Genin-level shinobi.
[System Notification: Killed Moon's clan Puppet. Points earned: 80.]
[System Notification: Killed Moon's clan Puppet. Points earned: 65.]
"Tch." Kyosuke shook his head silently but didn't complain about the small number of points.
He understood the principle of "Many a little makes a mickle."
After all, Chunin-level shinobi weren't as common as cabbages—encountering them wasn't something that could be done with his eyes closed.
He raised his head, gazing at the faint drizzle in the sky, and let out a heartfelt sigh.
He knew that fire-style jutsu would lose much of their power in this kind of weather.
To maintain efficiency in combat, he had to rely on the high-powered Chidori Stream each time, which was a terrifying drain on his chakra reserves.
While he could use his sword to slice the enemy puppets into pieces, which would also do the job.
But that method was far too excessive, and, truth be told, the puppets' taijutsu skills were surprisingly formidable.
Lost in thought, Kyosuke failed to notice the puppet master hidden in the distance.
It wasn't until after Kyosuke left that the puppet master emerged from his hiding spot and returned to the base with a look of anger.
Based on the ninjutsu and combat techniques displayed by the enemy, the puppet master was able to deduce Kyosuke's identity.
This was none other than the infamous intruder who had invaded the moon and killed their young clan leader.
Surely, the clan's leader would not sit idly by while someone so dangerous stirred up chaos within their territory.
It didn't take long before Ōtsutsuki Sugito was informed that Kyosuke was still alive.
"He's really not dead?" Sugito stood up abruptly, excitement flashing in his eyes.
The fact that his nemesis was still alive meant he had the chance to exact revenge personally.
Once he captured Kyosuke, he would ensure the man experienced what it truly meant to live a fate worse than death.
"Someone, call Takuya over for me." he ordered.
Ōtsutsuki Takuya, once the leader of the rebel forces, was a formidable figure whose strength rivaled or even surpassed that of Sugito under normal circumstances.
It was only after agreeing to an alliance to jointly subdue the Shinobi world that Takuya willingly submitted to Suguto's authority and accept his commands.
Not long after, a broad-shouldered man pushed open the door.
"You summoned me, clan leader?"
"You're here," Sugito acknowledged with a nod and got straight to the point. "A rat has infiltrated our territory, and its strength is proving troublesome. Take a squad of high-level puppets and eliminate it."
"Don't worry," Takuya said with confidence. "I won't fail you."
Without hesitation, Takuya turned and left, exuding an air of certainty, as if he had never doubted his own success.
Through his study of the Fūma Clan's ninjutsu scrolls, Takuya believed he had significantly enhanced his own strength.
Forget some mere intruder—Takuya was convinced that even Sugito himself was no longer his match.
Of course, this assessment hinged on the condition that Sugito didn't use the ancestral Tenseigan.
"When I obtain the Pure Byakugan, it will mark the end of the main family." Takuya muttered to himself.
To merge the Tenseigan, the bloodline power of both main and branch families was required.
Without sufficient bloodline and ocular strength, one would remain trapped in the early stages of awakening, unable to progress—just like Sugito.
Unaware of these intricacies, Takuya naively believed that obtaining the Pure Byakugan was the key to unlocking the Tenseigan's ultimate form.
This misunderstanding explained why, in the original canon, it hadn't taken Ōtsutsuki Toneri long to awaken his Tenseigan.
It was because the Otsutsuki Moon Clan had collectively contributed their Byakugan, enabling him to awaken the Tenseigan in just a few days.
Meanwhile, in his room, Sugito clutched his eyes and decided to inform Black Zetsu of Kyosuke's presence.
He believed that enigmatic being created by Yin Release would be particularly interested in this information.
"It's said to have an extraordinary influence in the shinobi world."
"Perhaps it can help me acquire the Pure Byakugan." mushed Otsutsuki Sugito.
Through the clan leader Sugito's revelations, news of Kyosuke's survival quickly spread.
Black Zetsu soon caught wind of it. Based on the traces left behind, it didn't take long for him to deduce who was aiding Mito in secret.
"Your life truly is tenacious," Black Zetsu chuckled darkly, a sinister smile curling on its face. It didn't seem overly concerned.
Now that he understood the intricacies of space-time sealing, capturing the boy would be a simple matter given the right opportunity.
For now, however, his priority was to further escalate conflict in the shinobi world.
His ultimate goal wasn't the destruction of the Uchiha Clan. Rather, he sought to push the two brothers to awaken their Mangekyō Sharingan.
Though, It had hoped the news of Kyosuke's death would provoke the desired result, but it seemed a more drastic measure was necessary—perhaps even requiring the sacrifice of the Uchiha clan leader himself.
"Kehehe… Tajima, your time is running out." The eerie laughter of Black Zetsu echoed through the room.
---
Elsewhere, Ōtsutsuki Takuya quickly located the invader's whereabouts.
Kyosuke had avoided direct confrontations with high-ranking core members until now.
But he overlooked one critical detail: there were those within the clan who had awakened the Byakugan.
Despite this, the clan rarely used the Byakugan in combat, as they lacked the expertise in Gentle Fist techniques. Instead, they primarily utilized the dōjutsu as a convenient auxiliary tool.
Without Mito's assistance, Kyosuke would never have been able to carry out his repeated ambushes so effectively.
"Tsk, how careless," Kyosuke muttered, now finding himself completely surrounded by enemy forces. He had unwittingly walked into a trap.
"Give up," Takuya said, stepping out alone from the encirclement.
Veins bulged around his eyes as his activated Byakugan locked onto Kyosuke with an unrelenting gaze.
