"Tsk, You weaklings actually forced me to resort to showing my true form…" Isshiki spoke with a tone full of scorn while staring at Bakorio's decapitated head and the shocked expression on it.

He didn't feel satisfied with how quickly he won, but he didn't find it surprising as well… After all, he was an Otsutsuki, and a member of the main family branch to boost, unlike Kaguya!

However, just as Isshiki got blinded by his ego, Bakorio's decapitated head suddenly smirked at him before transforming into a white substance and exploding creating a terrifying shockwave…

However, Isshiki quickly raised his hand and started absorbing the explosion with a cold look on his face before he muttered "This is surprising, your clone technique is quite advanced to the point that even I can't tell them apart…" Then, he scanned the area around him before he launched a dozen gigantic pillars at where Mukai fell previously after sensing that he was still alive...

'It seems like he wants to force me to protect Mukai… Tsk, We are dealing with a being above the super Kage level here… Even Murakumo doesn't stand a chance against the current Isshiki… This is problematic, however…' Bakorio's eyes flickered slightly in his hidden spot, and smirked after hearing a loud yell

"You really think I need protection?"

It was Mukai, and he actually rushed out of the ground with 7 gates opened directly along with his third Eye, He wasn't playing around anymore!

"You?" Isshiki could barely say this when Mukai's new reptilian eyes locked into his location and he started jumping at him like a mad beast while using the pillars thrown at him for support.

'Hm!' Isshiki couldn't imagine why he, a god would feel fear from a mere human, but he did the moment Mukai got near him, and it only increased when he heard him say "Ultimate Fist First Style: Dragon's Might!"

The terrifying chakra and steam surrounding Mukai's body suddenly started condensing until it formed into a giant eastern Azure Dragon that contracted even further by twisting its giant body around itself while Mukai entered a striking stance all in a mere instant giving Isshiki no time to dodge!

Then, he punched with all his might at Isshiki causing the air itself to shake while the Dragon started rushing at him with unstoppable momentum. Isshiki instantly used his Daikokuten to summon multiple objects to protect him, and he was glad he did as the Dragon broke all of them until it landed on his body in its weakened form and still pushed him far into the distance, but he remained unscathed….

"I underestimated you, you are strong… But that's only for human standards" Isshiki spoke coldly with his god complex still on full display before he rushed at the surprised Mukai with a terrifying speed that made him appear as if he was teleporting, and Mukai could feel countless Projectiles appearing out of nowhere and aiming for every vital spot on his body…

However, he didn't panic and simply said "Ultimate Fist Second Style: Impenetrable Tortoise!" After saying this, Mukai started rotating in a way similar to the Hyuga's revolving heaven, but the amount of chakra gushing out of his body was simply too much and the more he turned the more it condensed into a harder and harder sphere until it turned into a giant Tortoise carapace that left no blind spots undefended.

Countless clanging sounds echoed as Isshiki's projectiles weren't able to go through Mukai's defense and even the might of his punches and kicks that could easily kill someone like Hashirama wasn't able to break through this defense so he couldn't help but frown especially when the sphere kept growing bigger the more he attacked it…

'This guy! How did he execute this technique so fast? The other one was also executed at an unimaginable speed…' Isshiki was truly confused but before he could react, Mukai's voice suddenly drifted into his ears

"Ultimate Fist thirst style: Karmic retribution!"

At this point, Isshiki suddenly noticed the carapace glowing with a weird golden light that condense into Mukai's right hand... He had a gentle look on his face making him appear like some sort of a buddha, but the sense of danger Isshiki felt made him disregard that tricky image, yet even then he was only watching in slow motion as Mukai pushed that light in his direction slowly.

However, it wasn't slow, in fact, it was sickeningly fast to the point that even someone like Isshiki wasn't able to react to it, and before he could even do anything, that light transformed into a giant beam that sent him flying far into the distance and many parts of his body started disintegrating… He even started hearing cracks in his stomach where his seals were highly concentrated…

'Impossible, How could a human be this powerful and fast… No, he probably absorbed the power of my previous attacks with his tortoise technique before launching them back at me in the form of that concentrated beam…' Isshiki couldn't contemplate further as his vision became completely golden and he felt embraced by a warm light.

However, he did his best to resist it and not fall into its temptation because that would be his end!

'So this is Mukai's strength huh?' Bakorio's eyes widened slightly at this display of power, but something else suddenly attracted his attention

"AAAAA" A terrifying aura gushed from Isshiki's body and shifted the direction of what remained of Mukai's attack exposing his body in the process and the damage he sustained… No legs, no hands, only his limbless upper body, and the head remained, and they were filled with bone-deep lacerations!

However, Isshiki's Otsutsuki genes instantly kicked in and started healing him while he said arrogantly to Mukai who was panting slightly while clutching his now closed third eye "As I guessed, your third eye grants you the power to execute any technique instantly… I applaud you, young man, Taijutsu is one of the very few things that can affect me, and your mastery of it is unmatched, be proud, you can die with your head held high"

Mukai had a dark look on his face after seeing that Isshiki wasn't dead yet. However, it quickly turned into a smirk as he said "Me? Die? It seems like you are forgetting that I'm not fighting here alone"

"You expect that weakling who's hiding to save you? I'm disappointed…" Isshiki replied while his limbs were already growing back but Mukai's smirk didn't fade as he said "Are you sure he's a weakling? I wouldn't be so confident if I were you… Show him your might, Bakorio!"

"Ah, it can't be avoided…"

Isshiki quickly raised his head to see the source of this voice, and his eyes couldn't help but narrow in the process as high in the air above him wasn't one or two people, no…

There were 12 of them! And they all had the same aura as Bakorio… No, In fact, they appeared far stronger than the one he previously fought and he heard one of them say calmly "Thanks for buying me enough time Mukai, you can leave the rest to me now…

'What's with this aura?' Isshiki felt something wasn't right with those clones, and he was right as these were Bakorio's strongest clones, 2 of them had power similar to the original body before the upgrade in his body's talent while the other ten retained 80% of his strength.

But most importantly, they all went through a bloodline evolution and gained both Hashirama's and Madara's bloodline, and one of them even had the Rinnegan he got from Nagato!

Isshiki watched in shock as the clones suddenly all said at the same time "Instant Bind" and he found his body suddenly frozen without the ability to move.

'This... When did he put these seals in my body...?' then, before he could break the seal, He watched in horror as the clones moved at the same and surrounded him instantly before they muttered

"Synchronized Genjutsu: Land of Death" All twelve pairs of eyes suddenly cast this Genjutsu at the frozen Isshiki at the same time, and before he could even lift a finger, he suddenly found himself in a completely Dark and eerie land filled with skeletons of all kinds of beings and he instantly started trying to break through it, but it wasn't easy…

As for his body, the twelve clones calmly extended their death-covered hands that were further empowered with Six paths chakra toward him without a shred of mercy in their eyes, until they heard something break in Isshiki's body… His life force ran out!
