Chapter 677 Appears at the End

Seeing his hope of survival shattered, Otsutsuki Isshiki was utterly desperate. He stared intently at Giger, his pupils swirling wildly outward, and the sky was instantly covered by endless black cubes.

This scene confirmed to the people of Kirigakure that the two people in front of them were the ones fighting in the forest.

Witnessing this spectacular scene firsthand must have had an unimaginable impact on these ordinary ninjas; even Mei Terumi, the Mizukage, was stunned.

The black cubes floating in the sky were not within the scope of the conventional Five Elements Escape Techniques, yet any one of them gave off an extremely strong sense of oppression, let alone one of their size.

Giger didn't even raise his head, as if nothing in the sky existed.

He smiled faintly and said,

"This kind of trick won't work on me. It seems you've really run out of ideas. Otsutsuki Ichishiki."

Without uttering a word, he slightly opened his eyes, and the black cube in the sky immediately crashed down.

The next second, endless darkness surged out of Giger like a raging sea, colliding with the black cube that fell from the sky, much to the horror of the Hidden Mist Village ninjas.

This time there was no earth-shattering sound; all that could be seen was the enormous black cubes being silently swallowed by the darkness, none of them falling to the ground, let alone hitting Gigg, the target of the attack.

Yi Shi did not stop outputting his pupil power. He maintained his attack in the air and once again condensed the Yin-Yang Black Rod in his hand. His figure transformed into a stream of light and rushed towards Ji Ge.

The two clashed with a punch, and the red flash spread out with the shockwave. Mei Terumi next to Giger could not withstand such an impact. Just as she was about to be blown away, Giger raised his hand and clenched it in the air. Dark gravity immediately stabilized her in place and formed a light black barrier around her.

It was merely a shield against the aftershocks of the attack; such a protective barrier was just a piece of cake for Giger. But it was a different story for Mei Terumi, who realized that Giger had protected her.

While fighting such a powerful enemy, she still managed to spare some strength to protect herself. At this moment, even Mei Terumi, the number one strong woman in Kirigakure, was starting to believe in the concept of love at first sight.

However, Giger then raised his hand and moved Mei Terumi off the battlefield, while simultaneously manipulating darkness to bind Isshiki to his spot.

Before Yishi could break free from the shackles of darkness, Giger pressed a Truth-Seeking Ball against his chest. The Truth-Seeking Ball emitted a blinding white light and then exploded with a bang.

When the smoke from the explosion cleared, a large crater appeared on the ground, with Giger standing at the bottom and Otsutsuki Isshiki kneeling on the ground.

The white robe he was wearing had been ripped to shreds in the explosion, and his bare upper body was covered in wounds. He was leaning on the ground with one hand, panting heavily.

Giger raised a hand and pressed it against Isshiki's head. Sensing the danger, Isshiki immediately forced his injured body to retreat rapidly. However, he was no match for Giger in terms of speed and was caught up by Giger in the blink of an eye, who stomped him to the ground.

Darkness immediately enveloped the ground, rendering Yi Shi unable to move an inch. A look of resentment flashed in his eyes, but he sneered.

"You want the Ten-Tails I have? I'd rather die than hand it over to you!"

Having survived for hundreds of years, Isshiki was now throwing caution to the wind. Anyway, he didn't have much life left, and any way he died was better than being fed to the Ten-Tails as fertilizer by Gigan.

So it's better to annoy Jig one last time before dying, at least to prevent Jig from getting his way.

However, the truth was ultimately going to disappoint Isshiki Otsutsuki. Giger showed no anger on his face; he simply bent down and wiped Isshiki's back with his finger.

Looking at the pale purple blood on his fingertip, Giger smiled. Seeing this, Ichishi felt a sense of foreboding. He immediately activated his pupil power and used the Black Eye's pupil technique, Daheitian, to release a yin-yang black rod that shot towards Giger's brow.

This technique was no longer effective against Giger. Giger easily dodged the momentary blurring, and then sealed his eyes with dark power, preventing him from using his eye techniques again.

Originally, Giger intended to destroy Isshiki's eyes directly, but then he thought that if Isshiki lost his eyes, his "power" would be greatly reduced, so he changed to this method of sealing.

Completely panicked, plunged into darkness, Yi Shi roared on the ground.

"What are you going to do to me?! The clan will find out the truth sooner or later, and they won't let you off the hook then!!"

Giger reached out and grabbed Yi Shi's slightly cold nape, chuckling softly.

"Great! We should bring as many Otsutsuki as possible. Chakra Fruits are always welcome."

"you......."

puff!

Isshiki's voice abruptly stopped as Giger's fingertips pierced deep into the back of his neck, and a strange power instantly surged into Isshiki's body.

At this moment, Yi Shi, who was already severely injured and whose abilities were still sealed, was quickly defeated by this power, and his consciousness was then taken over by Jig.

Having lost consciousness, Isshiki had become Gig's puppet. After Gig dispersed the dark power that had been binding Isshiki, Isshiki, with his empty eyes, slowly stood up from the ground, raised his hand and pressed it in the air, and the alternate dimension containing the Ten-Tails was opened.

The Ten-Tails, with a single crimson eye, roared at Gigg. Gigg, seeing the Ten-Tails alive for the first time, examined its appearance and made a comment.

"It's ugly enough."

Although the Ten-Tails has a large head, it does not possess any intelligence. In the original timeline, this Ten-Tails did develop self-awareness and even took human form, named Juro. However, it is clear that this Ten-Tails will never have such an opportunity again.

Its destiny is to become a big tree and bear a large fruit for Gig.

Under Giggs's control, Isshiki slowly rose and flew towards the Ten-Tails in the alternate dimension. Upon seeing Isshiki approaching, the Ten-Tails' enormous scarlet eye on its head revealed a crazed greed.

Devouring the bodies of the Otsutsuki is the most primal instinct imprinted within it. When Isshiki flew to the Ten-Tails, Gigg timely released his control over Isshiki. The first thing Isshiki saw upon regaining consciousness was the Ten-Tails' huge and ferocious face, with its gaping maw like a black hole.

"Do not!!!"

A mournful howl echoed through the space, growing weaker and weaker until finally only a chilling chewing sound remained.
