"I don't need you to worry about that."
Ryosuke glanced lightly at Isshiki in front of him.
What this guy was thinking—how could he not know?
But it didn't matter.
Isshiki believed he had seen through Ryosuke's strength.
But that was just what Ryosuke had deliberately let him see.
Isshiki assumed Ryosuke would be marching to his own death on the planet Ōtsutsuki.
But little did he know that the truly unfortunate ones were the Ōtsutsuki clan.
"By the way, I need a strand of your hair."
As Ryosuke spoke, he reached out and plucked a strand of Isshiki's hair.
Isshiki frowned. If he were at full strength, he wouldn't have let this slide.
Just this kind of arrogant behavior was enough for him to crush this insolent mortal before him.
But right now…
He had to endure it.
It didn't matter—this mortal was as good as dead.
Why should he waste his anger on a dead man?
With what he needed in hand, Ryosuke left the island.
As for Isshiki?
Ryosuke didn't touch him.
After all, he can't just kill off all the final bosses, right?
It's good to leave one behind for Sakumo, the Fourth Hokage.
The real question was:
Would Isshiki be able to last for decades in this world?
Or—
With all the major changes in this parallel world, would the Kara organization be born even earlier?
"I'll leave that to Sakumo."
With the coordinates of planet Ōtsutsuki in hand, he used Yomotsu Hirasaka to open a red portal.
On the other side—
The stronghold of the Ōtsutsuki clan
Taking a single step, Ryosuke passed through the portal to the planet.
"Hm?"
The moment he arrived, he noticed something different.
As everyone knows, earth contains natural energy.
And natural energy could be found on many planets.
Ryosuke had used Yomotsu Hirasaka to travel to various worlds before and had detected similar energy everywhere.
The only difference was in concentration.
But here?
On planet Ōtsutsuki?
He couldn't feel even a trace of natural energy.
Instead, the air was filled with a dense, chakra-like energy.
He called it "chakra-like" because, while similar, it wasn't quite the same.
"So, this entire planet is infused with this chakra-like energy?" Ryosuke mused to himself.
He casually took a snapshot and sent it to the chat group.
[Sixth Hokage Yagami Ryosuke]: "Screenshot.jpg! I've arrived at planet Ōtsutsuki. Here's the environment."
[Fourth Hokage Hatake Sakumo]: "You found the coordinates already?"
[Sixth Hokage Yagami Ryosuke]: "I had a little help from a friend."
[First Hokage Senju Hashirama]: "Haha~! See? There are still good people in this world."
[Second Hokage Senju Tobirama]: "Brother, if you don't understand, just be quiet."
[Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen]: "So this is the Ōtsutsuki homeland? It looks similar to earth."
[Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato]: "What's that black spot in the distance?"
A black spot?
Ryosuke looked around and finally spotted it.
"Huh? That looks like… a structure."
He muttered to himself before soaring into the air, flying toward it.
A few minutes later—
After covering thousands of kilometers, he arrived near the massive complex.
The "black spot" was, in fact, a colossal floating city. It was suspended in the sky without any visible support.
A river flowed through it, with waterfalls spilling down toward the ground. The sight was breathtaking.
As Ryosuke observed the floating city, several figures emerged and flew toward him.
"Intruder?"
"A human?"
The approaching Ōtsutsuki looked at Ryosuke curiously. There was no sense of alarm or caution.
Just mild amusement as if they had discovered a new plaything.
The Ōtsutsuki clan ruled the cosmos and no civilization could rival them.
For centuries, they had looked down on all other life forms as insignificant.
"Interesting."
A figure with a golden Rinnegan on his forehead scrutinized Ryosuke.
"How did a human like you get here?" He spoke with arrogance—just like the others.
Ryosuke didn't answer. Instead, he snapped another picture and uploaded it to the chat.
[Sixth Hokage Yagami Ryosuke]: "Screenshot.jpg! Just met some Ōtsutsuki. Five of them, all at the Six Paths level. Check this out."
[First Hokage Uchiha Madara]: "So these are the Ōtsutsuki? All five at Six Paths level? Are they born this strong?"
[Second Hokage Senju Tobirama]: "Unlikely. They probably have to train but it's much easier for them than it is for us."
[Fourth Hokage Hatake Sakumo]: "Five of them… and they all have Rinnegan?!"
[First Hokage Senju Hashirama]: "Sixth Hokage, can you grab their Rinnegan and sell it in the group mall?"
[Second Hokage Senju Tobirama]: "Brother… that doesn't sound like you at all."
[First Hokage Senju Hashirama]: "Haha~! They're aliens, not humans!"
[Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen]: "A single pair of Rinnegan is worth 500,000 points. There are three pairs and a single eye here. That's 1.75 million points!!"
[Sixth Hokage Yagami Ryosuke]: "The Ōtsutsuki aren't born Six Paths-level, but reaching it is effortless for them. However, advancing beyond that is extremely difficult. Also, don't be fooled by their appearances—some of them are thousands of years old."
[First Hokage Uchiha Madara]: "Immortality… Now that's an ability worth having."
[Sixth Hokage Yagami Ryosuke]: "No need to envy them, Madara. I'll extract some Ōtsutsuki bloodlines and list them in the shop later. You can buy it if you want."
[Second Hokage Senju Tobirama]: "That bloodline is going to cost a fortune."
[Sixth Hokage Yagami Ryosuke]: "More than the Rinnegan, probably. After all, immortality isn't cheap."
[Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato]: "I can't afford that."
[Sixth Hokage Yagami Ryosuke]: "Then go earn more points. There are treasures scattered everywhere in the world. How do you expect to get rich just sitting in the village?"
[First Hokage Uchiha Madara]: "Makes sense!"
[First Hokage Senju Hashirama]: "I wonder… Can tailed beasts be sold?"
[Second Hokage Senju Tobirama]: "Brother! You're not thinking of selling the Nine Tails, are you?"
[First Hokage Senju Hashirama]: "No, no! Just the other eight. I gave them away once—why not get them back now?"
Only ten seconds had passed in the chat.
Meanwhile—
Back in reality.
The golden Rinnegan-wielding Ōtsutsuki narrowed his eyes at Ryosuke's silence.
"Human! Answer me!"
His voice was cold. Murderous intent flickered in his gaze.
But Ryosuke simply smirked.
With a casual flick of his hand—
Bansho Ten'in.
In an instant, the Ōtsutsuki was yanked toward him. Ryosuke caught him by the throat.
"You talk too much."
With one swift motion, he plucked out a strand of the man's hair and stored it.
The other Ōtsutsuki were stunned.
And the next second—
"You dare—!"
Crack!
Ryosuke snapped his neck.
He yanked the man's head clean off, spine and all.
"What was it that you were saying?"
He asked, glancing at the lifeless head in his grip.
