"This is truly unexpected…" Muttered Jigen after having absorbed Bakorio's blaze release off his robe into the weird seals covering his body, and it made Bakorio frown slightly as this was similar to Rinnegan's ability…

'This man's body is abnormally strong, but he's clearly afraid of using his full power as this body can't handle it… How strong will he be if he was at full strength?' This thought truly worried Bakorio, but he didn't have time to waste as Jigen was already in front of him with his fist almost taking off his head!

'He's moving faster!!!' Bakorio instantly appeared at the location of one of his Kunais, but this time, Jigen was already there waiting for him and he landed a direct hit on his stomach and sent him flying through so many trees!

"It quite easy if I know where you can appear…" Spoke Jigen calmly as he made his way through the destruction Bakorio left behind after his crash. However, Bakorio's body was missing when he reached the end of that destruction, and he instead found countless seal tags that started shining!

"This is…" Jigen's eyes narrowed, but he didn't have any time to react as those tags all exploded at the same time creating a huge explosion that surpassed any tailed beast bombs!

…

"I wonder if those 10 medium Kage level Explosion talismans from the system had any effect…" Muttered Bakorio while standing on a tree not that far from the explosion, however, as the explosion calmed down, he could clearly sense a wave of weak life force jumping into the air out of the smoke of the explosion before the man in question locked in into his position and rushed at him by jumping through the air!

'No damage huh…' Thought Bakorio before he quickly dodged the human meteor falling on him and took out a good quality sword that was actually a rare grade item, although it was still far from his legendary sword…

Then, he calmly entered a stance and stared coldly at Jigen…

"Do you really think you can fight me head on?" Spoke Jigen arrogantly and Bakorio simply waved his sword into the air at him at a terrifying speed as his sword was surrounded by a unique aura.

This was his level 100 swift sword style, and it increased his attack speed with the sword by 500%!! And that wasn't all as it was also coupled with his Void slash which caused the simple slash to turn into a deadly attack, and it appeared out of nowhere right at the back of Jigen's neck making him feel a terrible sense of danger that made him duck down!

However, Bakorio instantly followed up by activating his sword intent and true fighting masteries coupled with his future sight, and Jigen suddenly felt like he was facing a monster as Bakorio blinked right on top of him and slashed him countless times!

However, Jigen surprisingly was still able to keep up, although Bakorio noticed that his life force was burning even faster until he eventually sacrificed a significant chunk of his life force to land a kick on Bakorio's abdomen that was covered with his exoskeleton…

The first time Jigen landed a punch on him, Bakorio used his body control to shift his organs and allowed it to land on him, and it caused him devastating damage, but he quickly recovered from it with his restoration skill and a health potion.

However, this time, he clearly sensed the weird energy covering Jigen's foot and if it landed on him, he would certainly die. So, he could only blink away from it at the last second before he took out a special Kunai that had the Flying thunder god Jutsu seal carved on it and threw it into the air while muttering "Dark rain!" and right as he did, that Kunai transformed into countless Kunais with a dark aura surrounding them and they started landing all over the place around them.

Meanwhile, as he suspected, Jigen's kick created a terrifying shockwave that erased the forest behind him from existence!

"You dodged this time as well, and you didn't use seals to help you this time… this is quite troublesome if I let you keep using your space abilities…" Muttered Jigen while casually waving his hand and deflecting any Kunais that were falling on him.

"Weren't you confident just now about beating me and getting any answers you want out of me? Go ahead, show me how you plan to do that" Spoke Bakorio coldly before he started attacking Jigen relentlessly while avoiding his attacks with the Flying thunder god Jutsu.

This was only possible thanks to his incredible reaction speed, in fact, he was sure that if it was Minato or Tobirama, they wouldn't be able to react to this man's attacks.

After all, the weakness of this Jutsu and its strength relies on the user's reaction speed, and Bakorio had plenty of it!

This fight went on for a while, spanning all across the land of silence and resulting in endless destruction, however, Jigen soon got angry and decided to end it as he got serious and used his unique ability Daikokuten!

Bakorio was barely able to fly to one of his Kunais avoiding a dark projectile that suddenly appeared in his previous location and disappeared into the distance.

'What was that…? I was barely able to see it' Thought Bakorio, but Jigen didn't give him the time to contemplate further as another projectile flew to his heart, and countless more flew to every possible location he could appear at!

Bakorio dodged more than 10 times at the same time, but eventually, a projectile went through his right arm and lodged itself there.

Then, just 4 seconds later, his body was turned into a porcupine despite its strong defense… He lost!

"You should be proud, no one was able to push me this far before…" Spoke Jigen while standing in front of Bakorio who still didn't fall even after all of these wounds and simply stared at him coldly and said "Who are you?"

"We will have plenty of time to speak while I experiment on you along with that other man…" replied Jigen, and Bakorio watched as a portal appeared in front of them and Jigen made him pass through it…

'This space Jutsu… It's similar to Kaguya's. Don't tell me, could it be, this guy is the one that came with her to earth back then…Isshiki was it?' Bakorio had an undiscernible smile on his face as he allowed Jigen to take him away… This was his plan from the start after all!

…

Meanwhile, to the south of the land of fire, a terrifying fight was currently taking place between a group of youngsters and a giant Gorilla.

This Gorilla was as big as the four tails Songoku and it might even be as strong as him as it was emanating a terrifying aura! This was an S+ Beast, Equivalent to a High Kage! and to make matters worse, it wasn't even alone as it had many underlings while fighting the group of 10 youngsters…

Meanwhile, on top of a falcon high in the sky, Shikamaru and Ranmaru observed the situation with clear fear In their eyes and Ranmaru was the first to speak as his red eyes kept glowing "Three of them are injured but it's nothing serious, however, they will lose if this goes on as the monkeys keep targeting the weaker members to distract the others…"

Hearing this, Shikamaru face palmed while staring at the sky before he lamented "How did I get myself involved in this mess…" and Ranmaru simply stared at him awkwardly with nothing to say as he felt guilty until Shikamaru wiped away the lazy look on his face and said

"Okay, I have a plan…"

Ranmaru was excited and quickly said "What is it?"

"Let's run away!" Said Shikamaru seriously causing Ranmaru's little brain to freeze, and seeing this, Shikamaru simply shook his head and said "I was just kidding, let's head down…"

'Was he really kidding? Or was it a test?' Wondered Ranmaru while staring at the back of the youngster in front of him silently…
