Saitama was slightly caught off guard by Kaguya's attack. With his reflexes, even Madara's speed couldn't escape his eye's capture, which was equivalent to the Uchiha clan's eye technique.
However, Kaguya performed a space jump; that wasn't ordinary physical movement speed at all. That thick, long white hair was like steel needles, locking all of Saitama's evasion routes.
*WHOOSH!*
The golden wings on Saitama's back instantly opened, automatically protecting their master and wrapping Saitama's entire body within. The sound of metallic clashing was heard repeatedly. Those hair needles couldn't penetrate those golden wings at all; they all softened back into long hair and were pulled back.
Kaguya furrowed her brows, staring at the golden wings on Saitama's body with a flash of greed in her eyes.
No mistake, that was a treasure given by the Golden List; its defense could be said to be invincible.
"I don't believe your defense is truly flawless!"
Kaguya narrowed her eyes, both her hands suddenly spread out. Energy throughout her body surged violently, she looked like a sealed demon, emanating an extremely thick death aura around her. This aura's power even made Saitama show a serious expression.
Other people had already changed their expressions and fled as far as possible. They felt that once caught by this energy, there was only one path: death.
"Fly scattered beyond space and time, rot together with these bones!"
"Tomogoroshi no Haikotsu (All-Killing Ash Bones)!"
Kaguya's hands suddenly extended, and from both her palms shot two bone pieces toward Saitama's face, bringing thick death aura. Wherever those bones passed, the surrounding air seemed to also be contaminated by death's breath.
"Terrifying power..." Saitama's eye pupils slightly contracted, but the corners of his lips instead slowly grinned with a curve of excitement. Finally he found a strong opponent who could give him a sense of crisis.
Kaguya instead snorted coldly. This technique belonged to Kekkei Mora, an instant kill technique; as long as touched, the target would perish. She was capable of transforming bone composition into very hard weapons.
Anyone stabbed by these bones, their body would slowly crumble like dust, exactly like the effect on Edo Tensei corpses. Even Perfect Susano'o wouldn't be able to withstand this attack.
Her attack had transcended the limits of physical attacks and ninjutsu. If Saitama destroyed Susano'o with hard physical impact, Kaguya destroyed it by damaging the material core until totally shattered.
In order to fully experience the opponent's power, Saitama instead sidelined his wings' power. He used his physical body to forcibly withstand Kaguya's attack.
"Serious Punch—"
That punch which looked simple yet unpretentious penetrated space. Fine space cracks spread out from his fist, trying to strangle Tomogoroshi no Haikotsu.
*BAM!* *BAM!* *BAM!* *BAM!*
Both collided in an instant. For a moment, time around seemed to freeze.
The death aura from those ash bones touched Saitama's fist. The skin at his fist tip instantly turned dead gray, then was pierced by the sharp bones. The front part began to perish, transforming into dust.
Saitama's expression changed. Until now, his physical body was almost invincible. Aside from Rank One and Rank Two of the Golden List whom he had encountered, there was no third person who could be a threat to him. But now, Kaguya's attack truly injured his body!
An expression of disbelief appeared on his face. Sensing the death aura creeping quickly like a leech from his fingertip toward his arm even to his entire body, a golden glove suddenly appeared on Saitama's hand. That golden glove emitted dazzling light, instantly eliminating that gray death aura and stopping its spread.
However, one of Saitama's fingers had disappeared.
"You injured me..." Saitama looked up, staring at Kaguya seriously. He seemed not to care about losing that one finger.
Kaguya narrowed her eyes and sneered: "Your luck is truly good, being able to obtain two rewards from the Golden List. These are all heaven-defying treasures. Starting today, they will all become mine!"
Saitama shook his head: "Not two, but three!"
Kaguya's expression stiffened momentarily. She forgot that this monster Saitama not only made it onto both the Strongest List and Hidden Expert List simultaneously, but also had once obtained one other reward from the Golden List before.
Indeed there were three rewards. It's just that for Saitama, that third reward was useless—at least didn't provide any combat power addition.
"Can you kill me?" Asked Saitama. "If you can, it's okay if the treasure on my body I give to you!"
Kaguya felt insulted, the corners of her mouth twitched: "How much do you want to die?"
Saitama tilted his head and sighed: "Being too invincible without an equal match is its own kind of sadness. It feels cold at the highest peak, you wouldn't understand!"
These "humblebrag" words not only annoyed Kaguya, but even Shirohige, Tobirama, and Shanks watching from afar also twitched their faces.
They felt like advancing and beating up this baldy.
"Today I will grant your wish!" Kaguya suddenly pressed both her palms together.
Blood spurted from between her hands, and she began drawing strange patterns in emptiness. Those patterns looked familiar.
"That..." Kakuzu who was also watching from afar changed his expression. "Hidan's Jashin God symbol!"
His guess wasn't wrong. Kaguya rose in Madara's body, while Madara previously rose using Hidan's physical body.
Meaning, Kaguya also inherited Hidan's body traits and power. For her, although she was a God-level entity, Jashin God's power was a truly new power system.
She realized that to face this baldy before her, she had to win with unexpected attacks; pure physical attacks were completely useless. This baldy's physique was truly unreasonable.
A drop of blood appeared and was sucked into Kaguya's mouth. That was blood she stole when her ash bone clashed with Saitama's fist earlier.
Saitama who was too confident and didn't use his wings gave Kaguya an opening. He didn't expect at all that even a small wound could place him in danger.
"I'm curious... can I kill you with this!" Kaguya laughed wickedly.
Her entire body transformed into black-and-white (Yin-Yang) color, exactly like Hidan before. With her original immortal body plus Hidan's body she inherited, her physique had undergone extraordinary changes.
Now, as long as there was still one cell remaining and having enough energy, she was capable of regenerating from a drop of blood.
"Try this!" Kaguya's hands moved sharply like knives, directly stabbing into her own belly. Blood spurted wildly.
