Chapter 386: Saving Hanabi

Sixteen Holy Bullets: Divine Execution!!

After blasting all the incoming Puppet Ninjas into the sky, a total of sixteen streams of White Waves, wrapped in high-density Armament Haki, suddenly shot up from beneath Yu's feet!

In an instant, they formed a massive pillar stretching across the sky, and with its indescribable terrifying power, it obliterated all the Puppet Ninjas in the sky into dust in one go!

"Wow… so powerful…"

"All those troublesome guys were wiped out in an instant…"

Staring at the enormous pillar stretching across the sky and the countless fragments of Puppet Ninjas raining down, a few Hyuga Clan branch ninjas nearby muttered in shock, "Is this the power of Scarlet Yu-sama? It's on a completely different level from us…"

"There's no Chakra fluctuation… so this guy's technique is…"

Seeing Yu instantly obliterate all his Puppet Ninjas, Otsutsuki Torifu, who stood in place, finally showed a hint of surprise in his pure white eyes. His Byakugan hadn't detected any significant Chakra fluctuations from Yu.

"If one day I were to die at the hands of an indigenous…"

But at that moment, Otsutsuki Torifu felt a blur before his eyes. Yu, who had pushed Lightning Release: Body Flicker to its limits, had instantly appeared behind him and Otsutsuki Toneri. "Do you think you'll become a joke, Otsutsuki Clan's Clan Head?"

Lightning Release: Chidori Blade!!

Blade of Flowing Water!!

With a burst of brilliant thunder in the air, Yu's right hand, transformed into a hand blade, swung swiftly. Enhanced by Lightning Release Chakra Nature Transformation, the Blade of Flowing Water cleaved through both Otsutsuki Torifu and Otsutsuki Toneri's bodies, instantly slicing through countless trees in the distance, splitting them into two!

"Such great strength…"

"I didn't expect that besides the descendants of the Six Paths Sage and Hamura, there would be noteworthy figures on Earth…"

After being instantly cut by Yu's Blade of Flowing Water along with Otsutsuki Toneri, Otsutsuki Torifu's calm and indifferent expression showed no change. "But now, what stands before you is not my true body, so any attacks are ineffective…"

Is this… a projection?!

Seeing his attacks pass through Otsutsuki Torifu and Otsutsuki Toneri as if they were mere illusions, Yu's gaze sharpened.

No wonder his Observation Haki hadn't sensed their presence from the beginning; it turns out these two had never actually come to Earth. The figures before him were merely projections sent to Earth using the power of the Tenseigan.

"It's a pity, Toneri…"

"It seems we'll have to save meeting the Byakugan princess for another time…"

Seeing all his Puppet Ninjas destroyed by Yu, Otsutsuki Torifu's projection vanished like a dream in front of Yu. "But we'll take this pair of highly pure Byakugan from the Hyuga Clan with us for now…"

When he reappeared, he was already on a flying altar high above the night sky, along with Otsutsuki Toneri, and was gradually heading towards the bright, full moon hanging even higher in the sky.

"Oh no… Hanabi…"

Seeing Otsutsuki Torifu take Otsutsuki Toneri away, Hinata suddenly seemed to wake up and urgently shouted at Yu, "Brother Yu! Hanabi is still in their hands!!"

Hyuga Hanabi, huh…

Indeed, upon hearing Hinata's reminder, Yu's Observation Haki immediately sensed a faint Chakra presence on the flying altar ascending towards the moon. It was Hyuga Hanabi, Hinata's younger sister and the second daughter of Hyuga Hiashi.

"I see…"

"Planning to use Hyuga Hanabi's Byakugan to awaken the legendary Tenseigan for Otsutsuki Toneri, huh…"

Recalling the setting from the "The Last" movie, Yu remembered that Otsutsuki Toneri was born without eyes, so Otsutsuki Torifu intended to take Hyuga Hanabi's Byakugan to allow his son Toneri to merge the bloodlines of the Otsutsuki Clan and the Hyuga Clan, giving him a chance to evolve and awaken the Tenseigan, which is said to rival the legendary Sage's eyes, the Rinnegan.

"Don't be naive, you happened to run into me…"

"I'm sorry, but it seems you'll have to return to the moon empty-handed today…"

Realizing Otsutsuki Torifu's intentions, Yu's lips curled into a playful smile. A mysterious interdimensional gate opened beside him, and he instantly vanished from the spot.

What is this?!

Noticing Yu's sudden disappearance from the ground through the Byakugan's extraordinary vision, Otsutsuki Torifu, who was standing on the flying altar high in the night sky with Otsutsuki Toneri, felt a jolt of alarm.

Air Door!!

But Yu's speed was faster than his reaction. Using Kaio's Door Door Fruit to traverse Space-Time, a mysterious interdimensional gate suddenly appeared behind Otsutsuki Torifu and Toneri, where there was originally nothing!

Sizzle!!

Immediately, a dazzling lightning flash of extreme speed appeared, and Otsutsuki Torifu felt an emptiness beside him. The Hyuga Hanabi he had been controlling was suddenly taken away!

Space-Time Ninjutsu?!

Seeing that Yu had taken Hyuga Hanabi from him in such an incredible manner, Otsutsuki Torifu instinctively widened his Byakugan, realizing the situation immediately.

"How is it? Arrogant Otsutsuki Clan Head…"

At the same time, a voice with a hint of mockery rang out. Otsutsuki Torifu looked up and saw Yu, standing in mid-air with Hyuga Hanabi in his arms, stepping on an invisible transparent line. Yu's face bore a half-smiling, half-amused expression. "Is there a particular feeling when your intended goal is disrupted by the so-called indigenous people you disdain?"

"Interesting… very interesting…"

Facing the profound mockery, Otsutsuki Torifu, the Clan Head of the Otsutsuki Clan on the moon, had never experienced what true anger felt like. His originally calm and indifferent face showed a brief flash of anger, but it was quickly suppressed.

"Yakushi Yu, is it? I'll remember that name…"

His Byakugan, with a cold and piercing gaze, seemed to burn the sight of Yu into his memory. "It seems the world created by the Six Paths Sage isn't as boring as imagined…"

"But when we meet next time, you will face my true body. The descent of the moon to Earth and the beginning of world destruction will be upon you…"

With that, the illusory projections of Otsutsuki Torifu and Toneri gradually vanished, leaving only their lingering echoes in the cold night sky, as if no one had ever been there.

"Next time, huh…"

Seeing Otsutsuki Torifu and Toneri completely disappear, Yu let out a soft, cold snort. Standing in the cold night sky while holding Hyuga Hanabi, his amber eyes reflected the bright, chilling full moon overhead, shimmering with an inscrutable light.

"Hmph, there's no need to wait for the end of the world. I think we'll meet again soon…"
