'Did it really succeed?'
'This Uchiha is truly a monster!'
Seeing Sasuke with the strongest "skin" in front of him, Lux couldn't help but sigh.
Forget about the Juubi; an ordinary ninja would explode if they tried to take in even a tiny bit of a great Bijuu's power.
Moreover, what Sasuke had sealed within him was the perfect Juubi, which was several times stronger than the one tamed by Obito and Madara before.
Yet, he could still control it perfectly, without any signs of backlash.
It could only be said that this Uchiha was too abnormal. Or perhaps, Sasuke's determination after losing Naruto now far surpassed Obito's!
Extreme love can always give birth to even more extreme hatred!
Hashirama's deep analysis and evaluation of the Uchiha clan was indeed worthy of his title as the one who loved the Uchiha clan the most.
"How do you feel?"
"I am the strongest in the world now!"
Sasuke snorted coldly, adapting to the overflowing, terrifying power while suppressing his arrogant thoughts and personality.
This time, Sasuke truly felt invincible!
An unprecedented level of invincibility!
However, the pain and anger from losing Naruto made him suppress his arrogance for the first time.
At this moment, Sasuke had no desire to be arrogant; in his heart, there was only an obsession with revenge!
"That guy must die!!!"
Truly the strongest in the world?
For Sasuke now, fame meant nothing; he only wanted revenge!
"Go! Let that Otsutsuki feel what true fear is!"
Lux snapped his fingers and instantly disappeared.
The space-time freeze around them was also lifted.
He could feel the surging, blazing anger in Sasuke's heart right now, as if boiling lava churned in his organs, and every pore was ready to erupt!
He didn't want to wait even a single second.
Everything else could wait until Sasuke completed his revenge.
◆━⊰✧⊱━◆
At this moment, Isshiki had just finished absorbing the Bijuu chakra from Six Paths Naruto's body and was still in a satisfied and joyful mood.
It was as if he could already see himself devouring all the ninjas, successfully evolving and ascending, stepping on Momoshiki, and surpassing Shibai.
"This ignorant lowly creature really wasted so much chakra!"
"Alright, that annoying demon fox is done with."
"Next, it's your turn!"
Isshiki remembered Sasuke, who was still bound by him. After obtaining Six Paths Naruto's chakra, his interest in Sasuke wasn't as great as before.
However, no matter what, Sasuke still possessed the secret technique of immortality, as well as traces of other ninjas.
Isshiki wasn't ready to kill Sasuke immediately; he had to squeeze every bit of value from Sasuke properly!
He wanted these lowly human ninjas to truly realize the terrifying consequences of opposing him!
But at this moment, when he looked in that direction again, the Sasuke he knew had already vanished!
His black staff, the Truth-Seeking Ball, and his Kama had all lost their senses; in that spot, only a terrifying black hole remained, like an abyss staring back at him.
'Hmm?'
'Who is that?'
'Where is Uchiha Sasuke?'
'Did he change clothes? And he broke free from my bindings? Am I seeing things?'
'No—'
'This power?!!!'
'This is impossible!!!'
Isshiki's face showed shock; he had no idea what had happened at all.
In just an instant, how could the Uchiha he had subdued undergo such a massive change?
It was as if, in a blink, he had undergone a complete metamorphosis, resulting in a qualitative transformation and enhancement!
And moreover...
How could there be a Juubi aura inside his body?
Did he become a Juubi Jinchuriki too? How was that possible? Where did another Juubi come from? And even if he swallowed a Juubi, it couldn't be done in an instant, right?
Did he faint?
This is impossible!!!
While Isshiki was still confused, Sasuke began to move.
Six Paths – Takehaya Susano'o!
An extraordinarily massive and unprecedented Susano'o formed.
The majestic Susano'o, nearly ten thousand meters tall like a god, stomped the earth, towered into the sky, wore dark purple armor, and had wings on its back that covered the heavens.
The eyes beneath the hard mask blazed like lava, each breath causing the ground to tremble. It was like the embodiment of destruction, also like the manifestation of divine punishment.
But this wasn't the end.
Under Sasuke's control, the enormous Susano'o rapidly shrank and condensed, like a meteor shrinking into grains of sand. Its armor stacked like a mini city, dense like dragon scales, as if an entire mountain had been forged into adamantium stone, transforming into an unshakeable wall of regret.
The original purple Susano'o, due to extreme compression and condensation, finally turned into a jet-black crystalline armor that coated Sasuke's body. Its hardness even surpassed the Truth-Seeking Ball!
After reaching this level, chakra was merely a tool for Sasuke to manipulate at will.
If he wanted, he could shape the Susano'o into any form he desired.
However, this sight was still too terrifying.
It was like compressing a massive Bijudama into glass beads—how much endurance and control ability would that require?
The chakra was no longer just manifested but crystallized!
Even its mass density was so immense that the surrounding space and light were slightly pulled and distorted.
If Naruto's Six Paths power was like the purest and brightest sun, warming and dazzling, even facing it would make one feel its intense heat and strength.
Whereas Sasuke now was extremely dark and profound, like an endless abyss without bottom or end. Just looking at him would make one feel bone-chilling cold, and the whole body tremble.
"You—!"
Isshiki was utterly terrified.
He couldn't comprehend Sasuke's terrifying transformation at all. Just the Susano'o armor shrinking from a meteor to grains of sand contained chakra that seemed greater than the entire Juubi he had just devoured!
How was that possible?
He must be under genjutsu!
Unfortunately, Isshiki had no time to be shocked or sigh.
*WHOOSH!*
True Amenotejikara!
Sasuke, clad in his Susano'o armor, instantly teleported right in front of Isshiki!
After fully reaching the pinnacle of Six Paths, and with his six-tomoe Rinnegan evolving into a nine-tomoe Rinne-Sharingan, Sasuke's exclusive left-eye dojutsu also underwent a total transformation.
Now, when activating Amenotejikara, as long as it was within his line of sight, he could instantly swap to any space, and forcibly swap any object!
More precisely, this was no longer just swapping objects but fully slicing and exchanging two spaces!
No hand seals or preparation needed, and no cooldown limit.
As long as his eye power sufficed, he could activate it continuously and instantly!
"Courting death!"
Isshiki was shocked, then furious.
This lowly Uchiha Sasuke, having gained just a bit of power, already dared to attack him directly?
This was truly courting death!
Even though he didn't know where this person's power had suddenly exploded from, he was still just food.
'Damn Uchiha, watch me devour you!'
Isshiki erupted, throwing a punch.
The terrifying brute force distorted the surrounding space into a spiral, the air freezing into iron sheets, then piercing layer by layer, spiderweb cracks instantly tearing through sky and earth, the sonic boom ring not even forming before it was shredded!
*BOOM—!*
Unfortunately, the absolute dominance and brute force that always worked for him finally failed.
This ultimate punch, slamming into the crystallized Susano'o armor, couldn't budge it at all.
This was the absolute defense formed from compressing a ten-thousand-meter Susano'o. No material in the ninja world was harder than this. In theory, even if Sasuke wore it and plunged straight through the Earth's core, it wouldn't be damaged in the slightest.
For Isshiki to pierce it with one punch was utterly impossible!
"Foolish!"
"This is impossible!"
Isshiki was bewildered, and his heart panicked.
He hadn't held back on this punch; it was fully intended to kill Sasuke, yet he couldn't even breach his opponent's defense.
This was truly too absurd!
Isshiki's shocked roar was still stuck in his throat and hadn't come out yet.
He only saw a black line splitting light and space, exploding right in front of his eyes.
Sasuke's Demonic Susano'o drew its sword!
Isshiki couldn't even see how his opponent drew the sacred Kusanagi Sword!
The cold sword light appeared like a sudden new moon, time freezing, space shattering like broken glass, the boundary of death rapidly melting in the sword's gaze.
