Chapter 520: Chapter 520 The Final Flaw
Naruto gritted his teeth!
He wanted to say something more, but Sasuke, looking down at him with a calm expression, left Naruto momentarily at a loss for words.
Originally, he had intended to continue speaking, but under the pressure of Sasuke's overwhelming presence, his resolve seemed to waver.
His fighting spirit had completely dissipated.
With a somber expression, Naruto looked at Sasuke before him.
He let out a long sigh.
"You win!"
"Sasuke!"
"You've won again!"
As he spoke, Naruto's face turned pale.
He hadn't expected to lose. Even though he still had strength left and could continue fighting, without even being injured.
But!
The moment Sasuke's Susanoo appeared, it displayed a level of power that was utterly dominating.
Faced with such despair-inducing strength, anyone would likely lose their will to fight.
Even Naruto was no exception.
Seeing Naruto's apparent disappointment, Sasuke sighed helplessly.
"Your strength is already formidable. You actually have the capability to fight against the Otsutsuki clan."
Hearing this, Naruto looked up. Was this supposed to be comfort?
Naruto was momentarily stunned.
After all, Sasuke had almost never spoken like this before.
"But..."
"But what?" Naruto asked curiously.
Sasuke smiled but didn't answer. Instead, he glanced around before locking his gaze on Hashirama.
He raised his hand.
Hashirama was instantly pulled toward Sasuke.
Before Hashirama could react, he was caught in Sasuke's grasp.
This didn't cause much concern among the others, as Hashirama was already dead.
He was currently in a reanimated state through the Impure World Reincarnation.
In this state, there wasn't much to be alarmed about.
But they didn't understand why Sasuke had suddenly targeted Hashirama.
Hashirama was already dead! Was Sasuke still not letting him go?
And there wasn't any deep-seated hatred between the two, was there?
Thinking this, the others couldn't quite comprehend what was happening.
In the next moment.
Sasuke placed his hand on Hashirama's head.
'Rinnegan Ability: Deity Gates!'
In an instant, the Deity Gates activated.
Hashirama felt as if something had invaded his soul.
In the next moment, excruciating pain erupted.
Hashirama actually screamed in agony.
Sasuke, however, showed no concern. Naruto, on the other hand, was confused. "Sasuke, what are you doing?"
"Lord First Hokage is already dead! What else do you want from him?"
"Is there any need to torment him like this?"
Yet Sasuke didn't answer.
Instead, a strange orb of light soon appeared in Sasuke's hand.
To others, the orb appeared gray and murky, but to Sasuke, it glowed with a green light.
This thing represented...
The Wood Release Kekkei Genkai!
Although Hashirama was in a reanimated state, having his Wood Release Kekkei Genkai stripped away by Sasuke's Rinnegan ability meant that from this point on.
Hashirama's soul would no longer possess this ability.
Hashirama, who had been tossed aside, quickly recovered. He looked at Sasuke, his eyes filled with shock.
He could clearly feel that the Wood Release power within him was gone.
He had no idea how this had happened.
But even without thinking, he knew it was Sasuke's doing.
But how had he done it?
How had he made his Wood Release Kekkei Genkai disappear?
What... was going on?
Hashirama was utterly baffled, completely at a loss.
As he pondered this, Hashirama's body began to fall, but the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, acted quickly.
Using the Flying Thunder God Technique, he teleported Hashirama back to the hill.
"Brother, are you okay?"
Hashirama shook his head. "I'm fine. I'm already dead what else can happen to me?"
That was true.
But the scene just now was hard not to worry about!
"What did Sasuke do to you?"
The Sage of Six Paths asked.
Hashirama smiled bitterly. "I don't know, but I can no longer feel my Wood Release Kekkei Genkai."
Hearing this, the Sage of Six Paths was stunned.
What did he mean by not feeling his Wood Release Kekkei Genkai?
The Kekkei Genkai possessed by Hashirama Senju was an incredibly powerful ability!
And what kind of unbelievable method had Sasuke used to make Hashirama lose his Kekkei Genkai?
What was going on?
The Sage of Six Paths stared wide-eyed at Sasuke in the sky.
At this moment, Sasuke had no intention of explaining anything to anyone. In the next moment, he reached out toward Naruto.
Naruto tried to dodge, but Sasuke instantly appeared in front of him.
Purple chakra surged, forming chains that tightly bound Naruto.
Sasuke then activated the Deity Gates, beginning to fuse the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai into Naruto.
Naruto wanted to resist, but a strange sensation suddenly washed over his body. His blood and cells seemed to be cheering.
This unexpected feeling froze Naruto in place.
As the power continued to flow into him, Naruto's body visibly changed.
His hair began to turn white.
His skin grew paler.
The power of his Rinnegan seemed to strengthen.
Inside him, the nine tailed beasts were utterly shocked.
Because they could clearly see that a new Kekkei Genkai had been integrated into Naruto's body.
And this power seemed to blend seamlessly with Naruto's original abilities.
Once the fusion was complete, Sasuke released Naruto.
Naruto floated in mid-air.
He suddenly opened his eyes, feeling the powerful life force within him.
The images his eyes now saw were clearer, as if he could see the dust particles floating in the air.
This left Naruto deeply astonished.
"You... what did you do to me?"
Sasuke looked at Naruto, who now seemed to have awakened a portion of Otsutsuki bloodline.
"I simply helped you unlock your potential."
"I fixed your shortcomings."
Fixed his shortcomings?
Naruto was stunned. He raised his hand, and a green sprout emerged from his palm.
This was Wood Release?
Everyone was dumbfounded. Wood Release? Why did Naruto have Wood Release?
Sasuke smiled.
"Now you are complete. Without Wood Release, even with your Uzumaki clan's bloodline, you could control the Rinnegan, but it would always be a burden."
"With Wood Release, the strain of the Rinnegan will disappear."
"However... I didn't expect that there would be other changes I hadn't anticipated."
Wood Release, Uzumaki clan physique, Rinnegan, tailed beasts all these factors combined seemed to have awakened the Otsutsuki blood within Naruto.
But his awakening was more like a reawakening of the Otsutsuki blood that had always been strong within him.
This was Naruto's innate talent!
The reason he could be like an unkillable cockroach was ultimately due to the vast amount of Otsutsuki blood he had inherited...
It seemed that by accident, Naruto had become even more terrifying...
Naruto, feeling his new self, realized he was now worlds apart from his previous state.
He was no longer on the same level.
"Sasuke, why did you do this?"
"Thank you for helping me..."
Sasuke smiled. "Alright, now you can better protect the ninja world. Goodbye, Naruto! I have my own path to follow. Don't be too surprised now next time we meet, you'll be even more shocked!"
