Naruto and Sasuke are doing nothing; Madara and I will set an example.

Turning his gaze away, Taobo said, "Didn't you tell you and that clown that you mentioned that inferior beings without the power of our race are simply incapable of consuming Chakra Fruits? Even if they were to forcibly consume one, they would only face certain death."

"What!?" The sudden revelation of the truth caused an uproar in Shell's base!

"Ji-gen... what's going on? Is what he said true?!"

Cixian, seated on the throne, remained calm and composed.

Momoshiki, as arrogant as you are, you actually chose to stand on Uchiha Chen's side and undermine me.

Interesting. It seems that what happened between him and Uchiha Chen is far more complicated than I thought.

Cixian calmly addressed the crowd behind him, saying, "Gentlemen, please be patient. I will answer your questions later."

The most devastated was Boro, who, like Deepa who had just been turned into diamond and remained forever, and Victor who had died even earlier, was devastated.

They are the three people in the Kara organization who value Jigen's promise and the allure of the Chakra Fruit's promise of immortality the most.

This is also their original motivation for working for the shell company!

"The Chakra Fruit's immortality is a facade... Kara's purpose is also a facade. So, that Shiki, your purpose in gathering us was simply to use us as pawns, to fight for you? No... that's the reality!!!"

Tears and snot streamed from Boro's eyes and nostrils.

This is called killing someone by destroying their spirit.

Momoshiki is taking Boro seriously for his repeated verbal offenses.

Killing them isn't enough; we also need to destroy their spirit.

Now that his heart has been dealt with, it's time to send him on his way.

Taobo raised his right hand and muttered, "That move, what was it called again... Oh, right. Rasengan."

"Whoosh!" The golden and blue Rasengan on his right palm expanded terrifyingly, instantly surpassing the scale that Naruto could previously achieve!

"May you be reborn into a better family in your next life."

"You probably won't have a next life either. The Netherworld won't accept someone as useless as you..."

——Rasengan!

"Boom! B ...

"Ughh ...

The storm from the explosion blew Kawaki away!

His mentality completely collapsed.

"The person I wanted to kill not only didn't die, but also suddenly became this strong."

"The people I wanted to protect all died tragically because of me."

“And just a few minutes ago, I tried to kill the Seventh Hokage’s daughter who had fled here…”

"Heh, who knows, maybe I really am a beast."

"Whoosh!" After the storm subsided, no trace of Boro could be found on the ground.

"..." Tao Bo lowered his hand, which hovered in the air.

To heal Boruto's fatal injury, he crushed about 20 percent of the data that made up Wedge and used it to rebuild Boruto's body.

This Wedge 2, which requires the Wedge to be thawed to 80% before it can be activated, is actually, strictly speaking, 60% plus the 20% that he voluntarily gave up just now.

The energy expenditure for Momoshiki is enormous.

Even so, would he still come out to vent his anger on Boro?

No... perhaps it wasn't just about venting anger.

The weakness had blurred Momoshiki's consciousness, and he was about to fall into a deep sleep from which he would not wake up again for a long time.

Tao Bo turned his gaze to Chen again.

Thanks to Boruto's manifested Jōgan and the power of the Otsutsuki clan, he actually saw some things on the level of cause and effect.

"Hey, you, be careful, you've been... targeted by XXXXX."

Chen frowned: "What's targeting us?"

The pronunciation of what sounded like a name that Momoshiki just made sounded like a burst of electronic music.

His name... I can't even say it!

Momoshiki was shocked: So, it's been listed as a forbidden word, the divine art of manipulating words—[Yae no Kotosho no Sujin]?

Even I, as an Otsutsuki, am unable to utter this name.

"Whoosh!" The Pure Eyes flashed and disappeared into Boruto's pupils.

"Sizzle!" As the horn on Boruto's right forehead faded, the enchanting blue wedge pattern retreated and disappeared into the wedge in Boruto's right palm.

Boruto's body... fell from mid-air.

Momoshiki's inner monologue before falling into a deep sleep.

I never imagined that in the five hundred years since we last met, your power has reached this level.

As expected of the second-ranked among the Ten Gods, your power has already created a huge gap with the third-ranked One Style!

Is your goal to surpass Lord Dragon? Your boast that made the gods laugh and cry back then wasn't just empty talk!

He is the strongest genius of our clan in the field of mental illusion, and also the only one who has signed a contract with the King of Hell in the Underworld!

——Otsutsuki, divine style!

Chapter 169 You Reap What You Sow [Exclusively Sponsored by the Master of Blowing Flowers]

Chen swiftly caught the falling Bo Tao and said, "You were trying to warn me about someone, but for some reason, you couldn't say their name, right?"

There was no response from Momoshiki.

The one sleeping in the dust is Boruto.

"Get some rest," he said to Boruto, and also to Momoshiki.

"Lord Chen." White Jue, number 14 of the outer formation, emerged from behind Chen.

"Take Boruto back."

"Yes, sir." Number 14 of the outer formation took Boruto and then sank into the ground.

Chen raised his eyes and looked at Chuanmu, who was slumped on the ground, and then... walked towards him.

The next step in dealing with Kawaki will determine the overall situation going forward.

Chen will eventually eliminate the threat posed by Isshiki and Kara to complete the internal pacification plan, without a doubt. In order to serve the second step of the plan—expanding external defenses—he needs to obtain the Ten-Tails larvae that Isshiki is raising.

They will cultivate it into a divine tree to harvest chakra fruits, which will be essential for Chen to challenge the high-ranking Otsutsuki from beyond the heavens.

Two things are essential for cultivating Chakra Fruits.

Firstly, sacrificial offerings; secondly, seedbeds.

The offerings are the Ōtsutsuki used to feed the young Ten-Tails, transforming them into the Divine Tree, and are also the tree fertilizer that Chen often talks about.

According to Amado's words in the original timeline.

The quality of a Chakra Fruit largely depends on the quality of the Divine Tree, which in turn depends on the quality of the offerings given to the Ten-Tails during its juvenile stage.

The offering is a young and healthy Otsutsuki, which can transform the Ten-Tails into a more robust divine tree. A robust divine tree, combined with a fertile seedbed, can yield high-quality chakra fruits.

The offering is an old and unhealthy Otsutsuki tree, and the resulting sacred tree will also be of poor quality and incomplete. If the seedbed is also barren, it would not be surprising if it could not even bear chakra fruits.

Back then, when Kaguya's Ten-Tails was transforming into the Divine Tree, she fed Isshiki's dying half-body to it.

This also resulted in its quality being substandard despite being a sacred tree. Perhaps the high-quality seedbed played a compensatory role, and it ultimately succeeded in harvesting the Chakra Fruit.

However, the quality of that Chakra Fruit was only average, nothing special, but even so, it contributed to Kaguya's power at her peak.

Dust's goal is clear: either don't create, or create high-quality fruit!

To date, there have been three tree fertilizer specimens.

That is, the Kin, Momo, and Po types, which are frozen in the Tönnies time zone.

Jin was frozen almost unharmed, but he doesn't seem to be young.

As for Momoshiki and Urashiki, although they are young, they are both seriously injured and on the verge of death, which is what Amado defines as unhealthy.

Strictly speaking, none of these three individuals, nor the next one, are suitable tree fertilizers.

However, in Chen's plan, these four Otsutsuki were just extras, or side dishes.

The main course for Chen must be a young and healthy Otsutsuki, so... Kawaki in front of us is the perfect choice!

Perhaps, as Naruto believes, Kawaki isn't inherently bad; he's just a bit twisted in personality. With proper guidance and discipline, he might truly be able to return to the right path.

But... Chen had no intention of giving him that opportunity.

He will inevitably be used as fertilizer for the trees.

However... the real moment to close the net will come when Kawaki has completely transformed into an Otsutsuki.

How can Kawaki be completely transformed into Otsutsuki? It certainly can't be frozen in the Tōryū time zone.

It's not that they can't be taken in to their own paradise, but that would be a scourge, bringing endless trouble to those around them.

Chen Ke didn't want to make a fool of himself like that.

As he walked, Chen glanced at the sky.

He wasn't blind; he could see the reconnaissance drone hovering a hundred meters in the air perfectly clearly.

The information relayed back from Konoha via Yugao.

Cixian has already retreated.

Chen thought: Although I used the Annihilation Technique to temporarily suppress some of the causal factors of Kawaki's wedge, preventing Cixian from using the spatial gate to directly reach Kawaki's side.

However, if Cixian knew Kawaki's exact location, he could still reach that place directly using spatial coordinates.

Cixian has not appeared yet.

It is evident that he is quite composed and possesses a deep level of shrewdness.

I can think of three possible motives for him to return to the base.

First, if you suspect there is a mole among your accomplices, it is not advisable to act rashly.

Secondly, they wanted to take this opportunity to observe my true strength.

Third, by examining my stance on Kawaki, I can confirm my stance on him.

Is it because he knows I was once an enemy of Konoha? So, he's unsure of my stance towards him.

One thing is certain: if I really wanted to do something to Kawaki, he would definitely use a portal to come to me.

Even though he knew that I would kill Cixian, he still planned to use a technique to confront me.

For him, there was no other choice.

However... this is not the best time to counter the previous move.

This is another reason why I can't take action against Kawaki right now.

Dust stopped in front of Kawaki.

"Hey! Uchiha Chen is about to attack the weapon! Jigen, are we just going to stand here and watch?!"

"No rush, let's take another look." Cixian's face remained calm, but his mind was already on edge.

Guoxin, sitting in the chair to his side, noticed his small gesture of gripping the armrest tightly, and even noticed the bead of sweat on his face.

Guoxin Jushi: I really didn't expect that Jigen could endure to this extent. It seems that he is quite wary of Uchiha Chen... Also, I have a feeling that he has already realized something. I have to think about my way out.

They exchanged glances, seemingly reaching some kind of consensus.

The next course of action will depend on how Uchiha Chen treats Izukagi!

In the scene, Chen raised his hand... "Crack!" A crack appeared on the armrest of the stone chair.

Cixian has already made a gesture to stand up!

But in the scene, Chen was seen stroking Chuanmu's head and smiling at him.
