Naruto: This Genius is Somewhat Ordinary-Chapter 387

At first, Kaguya hadn’t paid much attention to how much chakra Tōma was consuming.

But now—

Her gaze locked onto his palms.

The power left behind by the Sage of Six Paths was still there. Undiminished. Untouched.

Her eyes widened.

"You... you never used Hagoromo’s power?"

"Why would I?" Tōma replied calmly. "I thought you’d force me to. Turns out, I don’t need it."

For the first time, real anger surfaced on Kaguya’s face.

"Insolent."

The crimson eye on her forehead snapped fully open.

"Amenominaka."

Space twisted.

Tōma didn’t resist the transition, but the instant it completed, his body lurched violently. His knees nearly buckled.

Crushing gravity slammed down on him from every direction.

This was the ultra-gravity dimension.

It wasn’t enough to break him, but the sudden shift was brutal. His movements felt sluggish, his recovery slowed to a crawl. Even his extreme speed techniques were effectively sealed here.

And he wasn’t the only one affected.

Kaguya herself dropped from the sky, landing heavily on the ground. Even she couldn’t float under this pressure.

Seeing Tōma’s trembling posture, a smile appeared on her lips.

In this world, he was suffering far more than she was.

She raised her hand. A dull gray bone formed in her palm.

"Kekkei Mōra—All-Killing Ash Bones."

The bone shot forward, cutting through the crushing gravity as if it didn’t exist.

The moment Tōma saw it, danger screamed through every nerve in his body.

I don’t even need to be pierced... one touch and I’m gone.

He glanced at the Truth-Seeking Orbs drifting sluggishly behind him. Using them as anchors for Flying Thunder God was impossible here.

He inhaled sharply.

The Ash Bone wasn’t fast, distorted by the gravity, and its trajectory was slightly off. Even Kaguya’s aim was being affected.

Still, that didn’t make it any less lethal.

Tōma twisted his battered body and barely dodged it—but his footing slipped. He crashed to the ground, pinned by the immense gravity, struggling to rise.

"Tch," Black Zetsu muttered. "Her aim’s off because of the gravity."

"It won’t be next time," Kaguya said coldly. Another pair of gray bones formed between her palms.

Tōma pushed himself up slowly. The wound on his forehead, barely healed, split open again under the pressure. Blood ran down, tinting his vision red.

Yet his expression remained calm.

Almost amused.

"...Looks like I can’t hold it back anymore."

"Even if you use Hagoromo’s power now, you won’t escape the Ash Bones," Kaguya said as she released them again.

Tōma chuckled softly.

Then he spoke.

"Eight Gates... First Gate. Open."

Something shifted.

His control over his body sharpened instantly. The gravity hadn’t changed—he had.

He sidestepped the Ash Bones with surprising ease.

Black Zetsu’s eyes went wide.

"That technique... no way..."

"Second Gate. Open."

"Third Gate. Open."

Blood surged through Tōma’s body, his skin flushing deep red. Violent green chakra erupted around him, wild and unrestrained.

Kaguya frowned. His chakra quantity hadn’t increased—but its nature had changed.

"Mother!" Black Zetsu shouted as Tōma pushed further. "Stop him!"

"Sixth Gate... Seventh Gate—Open!"

The green aura turned blue.

Steam exploded from his body as sweat vaporized instantly, filling the air with scorching pressure.

Even Kaguya felt a chill run through her.

This was no longer passive resistance.

This was a threat.

She formed another Ash Bone, this time probing, testing.

Tōma ignored the pain screaming through his muscles.

Then—

A smile touched his lips.

Black Zetsu saw it and felt dread crash down on him.

"No... don’t tell me—"

"He’s insane!" Black Zetsu screamed. "He’s completely insane!"

Tōma looked straight at them.

"Eight Gates... Eighth Gate."

"Gate of Death—OPEN!"

The ultra-gravity world howled.

Wind that should not exist erupted outward, born purely from Tōma’s presence. His veins bulged violently beneath his skin. The blue aura ignited into blood-red vapor as his blood itself began to boil.

His bleeding wounds evaporated shut.

This was the Eight Gates Formation.

Power drawn directly from life itself.

Under the same crushing gravity, Tōma suddenly felt light.

He could run.

No—he could step through the air.

In a normal world, the sky itself would have been his battlefield.

Kaguya watched, stunned, as an Ash Bone flew toward him.

Tōma smiled. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

And punched.

The bone shattered.

Black Zetsu recoiled. "Impossible! Even with the Eight Gates, physical contact should—"

"He never touched it," Kaguya said quietly.

Her Byakugan had seen it clearly.

The Ash Bone was destroyed by the shockwave of his punch alone.

The ground exploded beneath Tōma’s feet.

He vanished.

"Mother, run!" Black Zetsu screamed. "The Eight Gates kill the user! If we survive until it ends, we win!"

But Kaguya was already retreating, a black spatial rift opening behind her.

Too late.

Tōma appeared in front of her, having forced his way through her own Yomotsu Hirasaka.

And he didn’t hesitate.

"Boom!"

His fist crashed into her body.

Kaguya coughed violently as bones snapped under the impact. Blood sprayed from her mouth as she was blasted downward like a cannonball.

She slammed into the ground.

The origin space shook.

The land caved in, forming a massive crater.

Tōma hovered above, chakra locked onto her position.

"You don’t get to breathe," he said calmly.

His fist tightened.

"Evening Elephant."

Air compressed.

A colossal shockwave smashed into the crater.

Then another.

And another.

The ground shattered without dust or smoke—everything was crushed flat by overwhelming pressure.

Tōma inhaled once.

"This is the last one."

His speed surged again, surpassing even its previous limits.

"Fifth Speed—Evening Elephant."

He threw the final punch.

The air screamed.

Space itself compressed and collapsed downward—

"BOOM!!!"

After that—

The entire world fell silent.
