Chapter 740 - Chapter 260: The God of Otsutsuki and the Gaia Consciousness Descend Upon Aomi

Certainly, here's the translated passage:

"You're quite impressive. As a being born on this remote planet, even though you borrowed the power of Lord Shibai, getting this far is commendable..."

Akeshiki looked Aomi up and down, his expression indifferent as he surveyed the vast, tsunami-like blood-colored steam dragon. The cold light in his black eyes flashed as he chuckled lightly.

"Your ability to replicate others' Dojutsu ranks among the notable ones within the Otsutsuki Clan... Alas, once you've been hit by my Dojutsu 'Shiva's Dance,' this battle is already over."

"And, as the target of 'Shiva's Dance,' you can't replicate this Dojutsu." Akeshiki said confidently.

Meanwhile, in the Otherworld, Spiritual Technique listened to Akeshiki's words and nodded slightly.

He generally thought the same about this point.

The so-called 'Shiva's Dance,' a unique Dojutsu Akeshiki could use only after entering the second stage, has the ability to curse the enemy, extracting their power at a constantly increasing rate.

Moreover, when the curse accumulates to a certain level, it significantly weakens the enemy's attacks against Akeshiki, making them vulnerable.

In this interplay of weakening the opponent and strengthening himself, combined with his ability to foresee the future, Akeshiki is almost invincible.

When facing challenging adversaries, Akeshiki would curse them and then use his future-predicting ability to engage in guerilla tactics, waiting until the opponent's power was drained enough for him to easily obliterate his now vulnerable enemy.

Against adversaries of the same level or weaker, being hit by Shiva's Dance essentially means the battle is over.

To defeat Akeshiki, one either has a special Jutsu to avoid Shiva's Dance, like Spiritual Technique's "Ushinabi Vishnu,"...

Or one's power must surpass Akeshiki's to the extent that even with the curse starting, he can foresee the future but still can't escape being killed!

Otherwise...

Once the curse begins, every second the battle continues, the scales of victory tilt increasingly in Akeshiki's favor.

This is also why the Otsutsuki Clan has rumors claiming Akeshiki is actually the strongest...

Because his Dojutsu is indeed overwhelmingly powerful, forming a perfect loop capable of transcending ranks in battle.

"We can't let Akeshiki extract too much power from Uchiha Aomi..." Spiritual Technique's eyes flashed, contemplating the battlefield where the two faced off:

"The best outcome is if Uchiha Aomi still has something up his sleeve to wear down Akeshiki's condition... If he can't, I'll have to make a move early."

"Although Akeshiki and I have reached the limits our talents can achieve; Aomi's power, even if extracted, can't be preserved and internalized, but can still temporarily boost his fighting strength."

In the Otherworld, Spiritual Technique constantly planned, adjusting his strategy according to the battle situation, aiming to become the sole victor of this grand war.

"So this is a curse, huh?"

Aomi furrowed his brows, feeling his chakra being invaded by some dark, obscure power, seemingly vanishing into the void, a shiver running through his heart.

Moreover, this obscure power was causing Aomi's body to gradually become fragile, with ominous toxins accumulating in him as his energy was drawn, turning his body into a ticking bomb.

"Amano Iwato..." Aomi activated his Dojutsu, but just as the light covered his body, it was consumed by the invisible curse, unable to sustain.

"It's useless, this level of protective Dojutsu; you think you're that bastard's 'Ushinabi Vishnu'?" Akeshiki crossed his arms, quite relaxed as he watched Aomi try to break free from the curse:

"Feel this despair... But don't blame yourself; you had no hope of winning in the first place... Even your ability to copy Dojutsu can't replicate my 'Shiva's Dance'..."

"Because only those who have reached the limits of the Otsutsuki Clan and entered the second form can release this technique!"

As Akeshiki conversed with Aomi for several breaths, Aomi's power was continually being extracted, causing the blood-colored steam dragon circling around him to seem tainted with a layer of corrupt gray.

Aomi remained silent, a glint of battle intent flashing in his eyes as he charged at Akeshiki!

Aomi was very interested in this second-stage transformation power of Akeshiki...

This form had been exhibited by Momoshiki and Urashiki in the original space-time, but Akeshiki gained it through self-release, and it also awakens special Dojutsu.

How much stronger can Akeshiki become?

Aomi advanced violently, his astonishing and terrifying power completely tearing through space, with the black turbulence of the Otherworld swirling behind him like exhaust.

Aomi maneuvered deftly in the air, his golden bloodstained eyes locked on Akeshiki, using the same Dojutsu to interfere with his future predictions, forcing Akeshiki to engage in direct combat!

"First Leg!"

Aomi roared, his fists collapsing mountains, the powerful force collapsing the space ahead as it unleashed like a tangible storm towards Akeshiki!

"To hit this guy... mere fist force won't compare to the feedback of direct confrontation!" Aomi's mind raced as he charged again, his body showing molten cracks from the Death Gate.
