Naruto : Gojo Satoru Reborn As Kakashi's Brother

"My future self was killed by this guy? What nonsense are you talking about?"

Otsutsuki Isshiki's voice was tinged with anger. Clearly, he didn't believe what Otsutsuki Miki had just said.

"Are you questioning the Patriarch's words?"

Otsutsuki Miki glared at Otsutsuki Isshiki.

"Patriarch? Sorry, I didn't think it through."

Otsutsuki Isshiki's eyes widened, then he obediently lowered his head and admitted his mistake. Although he was naturally arrogant, when the name Patriarch was mentioned, Isshiki had to submit. Every member of the Otsutsuki clan had a deep-seated fear of Patriarch, a fear that could not be erased or forgotten.

"But since that's the case, let's kill him now to eliminate future troubles."

Isshiki extended his hand towards Hatake Satoru, and several iron rods appeared in front of Hatake Satoru.

"What?"

Isshiki's face showed disbelief. His iron rods hadn't pierced the opponent's body; instead, they stopped in front of him, as if blocked by some special force.

"What's going on?"

Otsutsuki Isshiki muttered to himself, then asked Otsutsuki Miki.

"This is his special ability. Anything with malicious intent or subconscious rejection cannot approach his body."

After speaking, Otsutsuki Miki also extended his hand towards Hatake Satoru, but the result was the same as with the iron rods. Although he had expected this outcome, experiencing it firsthand still left him somewhat surprised.

"What an invincible ability."

Another Otsutsuki who had trapped Hatake Satoru in a Genjutsu spoke up. The cost of this Genjutsu was immense; he had to sacrifice his sight permanently, an irreversible blindness with no cure, unless he got a new pair of eyes.

When he first learned he had to use this Genjutsu, he was extremely reluctant, but there was no choice. It was the Patriarch's order, and no one in the Otsutsuki clan could defy the Patriarch.

Fortunately, the Patriarch had promised him a pair of stronger eyes afterward. Otherwise, he would have had to suffer in silence.

At this moment, the void twisted again, and a man in a black robe with red clouds and a spiral mask appeared. It was Uchiha Obito.

"Have you dealt with him?"

Seeing the blind Hatake Satoru, Obito couldn't hide his surprise. He hadn't expected the strongest in the ninja world, Hatake Satoru, to be subdued.

"Yes, he's trapped in the Genjutsu. We just need to seal him now."

Otsutsuki Miki conversed with Uchiha Obito, while Otsutsuki Isshiki merely glanced at Obito before looking away. To him, Obito was just trash from the ninja world, or rather, a puppet of the Otsutsuki clan.

"The most troublesome person has been dealt with. I hope you won't disappoint us regarding the tailed beasts."

Otsutsuki Miki said coldly.

"Don't worry, as long as he's gone, our plan will go smoothly."

After saying this, Obito glanced at the three of them with a wary look and retreated back into the Kamui space.

"Who exactly are the Otsutsuki clan?"

Obito thought with some fear. The moment he appeared, three powerful auras locked onto him. Facing any one of those three, Obito felt a very dangerous sensation.

So Obito didn't stay there for long. No matter how dangerous the other party was, as long as they could seal Hatake Satoru, it was worth it. After all, no matter how dangerous they were, they weren't as dangerous as Hatake Satoru.

"But as long as I become the Jinchuriki of the Ten-Tails, they won't pose a threat to us."

Uchiha Obito thought naively. Although he knew the other party was using him, he was also using them to deal with Hatake Satoru.

However, Uchiha Obito didn't realize that he had far underestimated the Otsutsuki clan. Although the Ten-Tails was powerful, in front of the Otsutsuki clan, it was just a beast providing chakra.

"Next, let's seal him."

Otsutsuki Miki said to the other two.

"Okay."

The other two nodded, and then the three of them simultaneously formed seals. A semi-circular sphere appeared in the sky and on the ground, directly enveloping Hatake Satoru's entire body.

If Hatake Satoru were still conscious, he would have noticed that this seal was exactly the same as the one that sealed his future self, except the location was different. One was in the Otsutsuki clan's territory, and the other was in the ninja world.

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

After saying this, a space portal appeared behind Otsutsuki Isshiki.

Just as Otsutsuki was about to leave, Miki suddenly appeared beside him, placing a hand on his shoulder.

"Hmm?"

Isshiki made a puzzled sound and looked at Miki with a surprised expression, as if asking what he meant.

"You need to guard the seal. Make sure nothing goes wrong with this seal."

Miki said in an unquestionable tone.

"What?"

Isshiki asked in disbelief, as such tasks of guarding seals were usually carried out by lower-ranking members of the Otsutsuki clan, and he, Isshiki, was a higher-ranking member.

He never expected that he would have to carry out such a task.

"This is the patriarch's order. You have no right to refuse."

Hearing this, Isshiki wanted to argue but immediately held back.

"The Genjutsu won't hold him for long, so the seal must not have any issues. If there are any problems, report back immediately and reinforce the seal."

"I understand."

Otsutsuki Isshiki said through gritted teeth. Although he didn't want to do it, this was a direct order from the leader, and he had no choice but to comply. He knew the other party wouldn't lie about the patriarch's orders.

Because whenever they mentioned the Patriarch, The patriarch itself would sense it, so no one dared to lie about it.

"I'll report the mission to the Patriarch. When I return, I'll find someone to replace you. But if anything goes wrong during this period, your death won't be enough to atone."
