Naruto: You Call This A Medical Ninja?

Facing the combined attacks from Reiki and Chodori, Otsutsuki Hamura remained indifferent.

A light blue longsword materialized in one hand, while the other hand unleashed the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.

Two immense powers surged from a single person.

Boom!

The duo's attacks collided with Hamura's defenses but were completely blocked.

"I told you, this is the power of a god!" Hamura declared coldly. "You will never reach such heights. Today, you will die by the hands of a god."

Chichi…

Before Reiki and Chodori could react, a blade pierced through their chests.

Gah…!

Reiki coughed up blood, the corrosive energy from the blade gnawing at their bodies. Even Reiki's reinforced body struggled against the invasive force.

"Field! Backtrack!"

Chodori quickly activated her technique, using time retrieval to restore their injuries. At the same time, she created distance between them and Hamura.

"This guy…" she muttered. "Does he have some kind of special rule? This is trouble!"

"Reiki, let's retreat!" Chodori urged anxiously. "He's on the verge of becoming a puppet controlled by power. Fighting him now isn't wise!"

The attack wasn't a simple technique—it was beyond techniques. It embodied rules. Even Chodori couldn't fully comprehend its nature.

"We can't leave." Reiki's expression turned grave. "Hamura is being exploited."

During Hamura's last attack, Reiki had sensed spatial manipulation at play. The blade that had struck them didn't originate from Hamura but came from another dimension.

If Reiki's suspicions were correct… allowing Hamura to continue this path would be catastrophic.

"What are you even thinking?" Chodori snapped. "Are you planning to die here, kid?"

Reiki smirked. "I don't plan to die, don't worry. But there's something I carry—just as you carry the glory of time and space."

"I carry the glory of the ninja world!"

Despite the overwhelming danger, Reiki smiled with unwavering determination.

"Glory…" Chodori rolled her eyes but couldn't help but smile. "What a troublesome thing to carry…"

With a resolute expression, Chodori clasped her hands together. "If you're staying, I'll help you wield the full power of time and space."

"Time-Space Resonance!"

As Chodori unleashed her celestial chakra, the energy began resonating with the chakra within Reiki. Their magic chakras merged, creating a powerful synergy.

"Alright, let's do this!" Reiki shouted, clasping his hands together.

The combined energy surged, expanding their battlefield.

"Sage Technique: Blade of Time!"

Chodori transformed into the Sky-Shattering Blade, a weapon of immense celestial power. Gripping the blade tightly, Reiki charged forward and swung it.

Slash!

Hamura flinched as the blade cut through his body.

"Impossible! I…!" Hamura's voice trembled with disbelief. His defenses, which even space techniques couldn't penetrate, had been breached.

"It's better to die than to become a puppet of power," Reiki said, his voice steady. "Hamura, the path you've chosen is wrong."

Appearing in front of Hamura, Reiki placed his hand on Hamura's forehead and spoke calmly.

"You… you're wrong! This is the only way to godhood!" Hamura protested.

"ROOM!" Reiki activated his surgical technique, extracting the Tenseigan from Hamura's forehead. He also removed Hamura's remaining pair of eyes.

The effort drained Reiki, and he fell from the sky, his body exhausted.

"Let's go!" Chodori reverted from her weapon form, catching Reiki as they retreated.

Hahaha…

Hamura's laughter echoed. "You think it's over just because you took my Tenseigan?!"

"No! I will summon a god and turn the entire ninja world into a sacrifice to resurrect myself!" Hamura's voice grew manic.

Behind him, a vortex appeared, emanating powerful spatial fluctuations. From within, two long red blades emerged—the same weapons that had injured Reiki and Chodori earlier.

Reiki's suspicion was confirmed. Hamura hadn't attacked them himself; instead, he had summoned a powerful entity from Takamagahara. Now, he was trying to force that being into their dimension.

"Are you insane?!" Chodori exclaimed. "If you continue, you'll destroy your own life force. Resurrection will be impossible!"

"He's already under Takamagahara's control," Reiki said grimly.

"Why does Takamagahara even have a connection to him?" Reiki couldn't understand, but there wasn't time to dwell on it. The immediate priority was to stop Hamura.

"Let me handle this!"

Shisui stepped forward, activating his Mangekyō Sharingan. His gaze locked onto Hamura as he prepared to unleash his ultimate eye technique.

"Kotoamatsukami!"

But Shisui wasn't aiming at Hamura. Instead, his technique targeted the unseen force controlling Hamura…
