Naruto: Copy System#719+720: Shin's Speculation, Are You a Psycho?

After the Pluton flew clear of the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, Shin hurled a Six Paths Rasenshuriken back at the sacred city.

With a deafening roar, the attack obliterated more than half of Mary Geoise, and even the Red Line itself began to tremble.

————————————

"If I'd gone all out, Fish-Man Island, ten thousand meters below, would have been caught in the crossfire."

Shin commented casually.

After all, Fish-Man Island was Shirahoshi's home. If he accidentally destroyed it, she would probably cry her eyes out.

"You call that holding back??" Olvia gestured toward the flattened remains of Mary Geoise.

If he had used any more force, the Red Line might have been completely shattered. Perhaps then, they wouldn't even need to pass through Fish-Man Island to reach the New World—he would have simply blasted a new path.

"You don't think that destroyed Uranus, did you?" Robin couldn't help but wonder.

"I doubt it... It shouldn't be that fragile."

Shin shrugged, then waited for Uranus to appear. Unlike Shin's calm demeanor, Amatsuki Toki was on edge.

“I don’t think Uranus will be that easy to deal with. Since you said it’s a person, Shin, and it’s been alive for so long, who knows how strong it is now??”

Amatsuki Toki’s face was filled with worry.

"Worrying is pointless. Or do you not have faith in me, Toki?" Shin asked.

At his question, Amatsuki Toki paused, her mind flashing back to the sight of Mary Geoise being obliterated by a single, casual attack from Shin.

That seemed to be just a whim on his part. Maybe she really didn't need to worry. No matter how powerful Uranus was, it couldn't possibly compare to Shin.

"Is that him?" Shin's gaze shifted, focusing on a figure in the distance.

The moment he saw the figure, Shin knew—that was the so-called Uranus. It really was a person.

"Was it you who disturbed my slumber?"

Uranus's gaze fell upon Shin. His entire body was encased in heavy armor, his head covered by a large mask that completely concealed his face.

"How about taking off that mask so I can have a look?" Shin asked with a smile.

"Die."

Uranus let out an icy growl, and an endless torrent of flames surged toward Shin, turning the sky crimson.

Shin's expression flickered with surprise. Weren't those the powers of Imu's Phoenix Fruit? How could Uranus use them too?

But now wasn't the time to ponder that. He had to deal with the attack first.

Shin summoned his Susanoo, which completely blocked the flames, shielding both him and the Pluton.

"You guys get out of here. I'll have some fun with this one."

Shin said with great interest.

Olvia and the others knew that even if they stayed, they wouldn't be of any help. This Uranus seemed ridiculously powerful.

Shin could definitely handle it, but if they stayed, they'd be no different from cannon fodder.

So, Olvia and the others left without hesitation, leaving Shin to face Uranus alone.

"As one of the Ancient Weapons, let's see what you're really capable of. I hope you can show me something interesting—" Shin said with a faint smile, looking at Uranus.

If Uranus was an Ancient Weapon, then someone must have created it. The question was, who?

The Celestial Dragons? No, if it were them, they wouldn't be dominated by Uranus.

Instantly, Shin thought of the mysterious D. Clan.

Though the D. Clan was small in number, every living member was an incredibly powerful individual—like the protagonist, Monkey D. Luffy.

There were also Garp, Dragon, Ace, Roger, and others—all members of the D. Clan, embodying a certain will.

They were called the "Natural Enemies of the Gods." If the Celestial Dragons called themselves the descendants of gods, then who was the god? It was possible that this so-called god was Uranus.

Perhaps the D. Clan created Uranus, and then Uranus, unwilling to be a mere weapon, rebelled and destroyed the D. Clan's kingdom.

That could be it...

Though it was all just Shin's own speculation, it didn't mean he was wrong. Shin considered his ability to connect the dots to be quite strong.

"Hey, aren't you going to talk to me? You just keep attacking. Do you think I'm a pushover?"

Shin didn't move, letting Uranus continue his assault.

All the attacks landed on Shin's Susanoo, but they couldn't even scratch it.

The damage couldn't even keep up with his regeneration.

Uranus ignored Shin's words, continuing his relentless attacks, making Shin wonder if this Uranus was broken in the head.

"You really think I don't have a temper?"

Shin controlled Susanoo to throw a punch at Uranus, sending him crashing down onto the Red Line.

If his earlier guess was correct, and Uranus was the so-called god, then it was a perfect match. The Susanoo was also known as a divine technique.

Legend had it that anyone who witnessed it was doomed. The Susanoo was destruction incarnate.

Madara's version might have struggled against this ancient weapon. But Shin's Susanoo? Uranus didn't stand a chance.

One punch had nearly finished him off.

————————————

"IMPOSSIBLE. NO ONE IS STRONGER THAN ME." Uranus's injuries healed amidst the flames, and at the same time, lightning crackled around his body.

"Is that the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's power? What's going on with you?"

Shin looked at the ability his opponent was using. Was it really the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, or something else?

As far as he knew, Olvia had already eaten the Rumble-Rumble Fruit. So how could Uranus still use its power?

As Shin was pondering this, the lightning had already struck him. The brilliant bolts, carrying immense power, slammed into the Susanoo.

Even the Susanoo's armor was cracked, but such a small fissure could be repaired in an instant. It was nothing to worry about.

Seeing that his attack had no effect, Uranus used the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit. It seemed Uranus could use the abilities of any Devil Fruit.

"You're quite the cheat, aren't you? Almost more of a cheat than me," Shin couldn't help but say, looking at the man who was using all sorts of Devil Fruit abilities.

Unfortunately, no matter what attack he used, its power wasn't that great. At least, it didn't pose a threat to Shin. He couldn't even break through Susanoo's defense.

"Are you done with your attacks? Shouldn't it be my turn now?" Shin dispelled his Susanoo and cracked his knuckles.

Though his attacks had no effect on him, being constantly attacked was still very annoying.

Now, it was time for payback.

<><><><><><><><>

The moment Shin declared his turn, Uranus must have sensed the danger, immediately going on the defensive.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

But it was useless... Uranus didn't even see how Shin appeared behind him. A single punch from Shin pierced through the armor on Uranus's body.

Revealing his body, Shin's brow twitched. The sensation of the hit felt a bit off.

It was as if he'd punched solid steel. This guy's defense was quite formidable. Perhaps he was using some kind of defensive ability, but it wasn't Armament Haki.

From the look of it, his opponent didn't seem to know how to use Armament Haki, or even Observation Haki.

Shin pushed those thoughts aside. Since he was going to teach him a lesson, he might as well do it properly.

His fists became a blur like rain, constantly striking Uranus's body. The armor on Uranus's body shattered, and the mask on his face was also broken by Shin's fists.

It revealed a completely ordinary face, so ordinary that it was almost excessive.

The kind of face you'd never be able to find in a crowd.

"I will kill you, you who defy the gods."

Uranus's emotionless eyes stared at Shin, his entire being exuding an endless killing intent.

"Oh? You think you're a god? That's hilarious."

Shin sneered at him.

Why did anyone with a bit of power become so arrogant and think themselves a god? Just like Nagato Uzumaki, who also called himself a god. In reality, his strength was far from that level. The Uranus before him was definitely stronger than Nagato, but to call himself a god, he was still unqualified.

"You disrespect God. DIE." Uranus instantly opened a door out of thin air and appeared behind Shin.

The power of the Door-Door Fruit, allowing one to open a door anywhere. It was a spatial-type Devil Fruit ability.

"Don't bother with those kinds of spatial abilities in front of me. They're too weak."

Shin used Kamui, letting his opponent's attack pass through his body. Then he reached out and grabbed his opponent by the neck.

"How can you use so many Devil Fruit abilities? Can you tell me? I'm very curious about that."

Shin asked his opponent with a curious expression. He could use many Devil Fruit abilities because he had copied them.

But how did Uranus unleash so many Devil Fruit abilities?

Uranus, of course, wouldn't answer. Caught by Shin, Uranus's body turned into light and escaped from Shin's grasp.

"Right, I forgot. You can use many Devil Fruit abilities, so of course you can use a Logia Fruit's elementalization."

Shin smacked his forehead. Just now, Uranus had used the Glint-Glint Fruit's elementalization to escape from his grasp.

He should have used Armament Haki that can hit Logia users. Unfortunately, Shin had forgotten.

"It's been a while since I had a real fight. My combat instincts have gotten rusty."

If it were his past self, he definitely wouldn't have forgotten. The main reason was that Shin wasn't taking this fight seriously.

The power Uranus had displayed was indeed impressive, far surpassing a Marine Admiral, even capable of instantly killing one.

But in front of Shin, it was still not enough. That was why Shin hadn't taken him seriously.

"You won't escape from me so easily next time. So be careful," Shin reminded his opponent with a faint smile.

"No one can make me escape. I am the supreme god," Uranus stared at Shin coldly.

"Heh, are you some kind of psycho?" Shin chuckled coldly, thinking this guy was completely insane.

He felt he might have been wrong. Not just a psycho, but he also had a bad case of eighth-grader syndrome. It seemed the beating he had given him earlier wasn't enough to make him see reality.

"I've always been a do-gooder, specializing in helping those who've gotten too big for their britches see reality," Shin said calmly.

"You will die."

Uranus roared and charged at Shin, his body exuding a cold killing intent, and also a chilling cold.

This cold was actually the power of the Ice-Ice Fruit, freezing even the air, and it was spreading towards Shin.

Shin's brow twitched slightly, then his eyes turned into the Nine-Tomoe Rinne-Tenseigan.

"<Amaterasu!>"

Shin said calmly. Black flames surged out and landed on Uranus's body, and the inextinguishable flames began to burn.

The flames that would never extinguish until the enemy was completely burned—were actually very powerful.

Though in the Naruto world, it had basically never killed anyone, its reputation greater than its actual effect.

But when really used, it was still very powerful. Now Uranus was covered in flames. Even with the power of the Ice-Ice Fruit, he couldn't extinguish the flames.

"Inextinguishable flames?" Uranus snorted coldly, then his body elementalized, directly escaping the inextinguishable black flames of Amaterasu.

"Just as I thought. That move is useless against you."

Shin had anticipated this. It was just a test; it didn't matter if it didn't work.

Suddenly, a Truth-Seeking Orb appeared in Shin's hand. Holding the blade formed from the Truth-Seeking Orb, Shin looked at Uranus calmly.

"I wonder if you'll still be alive after being cut by a Truth-Seeking Orb."

The Truth-Seeking Orbs were the enemy of all creation. Anyone without Six Paths power who touched a Truth-Seeking Orb would turn to ash.

The moment Shin took out the Truth-Seeking Orb, Uranus felt an absolute sense of crisis, a terrifying sense of danger that was about to drown him.

From this seemingly ordinary blade, Uranus felt a great sense of crisis, even making him feel a little scared.

This blade absolutely could not be touched. If he touched it, he would definitely die. This was his intuition, and his intuition could never be wrong.

"You seem to be afraid."

Shin looked at the subconsciously retreating Uranus, smiled faintly, and said. Just now, Uranus had directly retreated; he was wary of the sword formed from the Truth-Seeking Orb.

"Hmph." Uranus snorted coldly. Looking at the calm Shin, who seemed to not put him in his eyes at all, Uranus was very unhappy.

"I acknowledge your strength. How about joining me and becoming a god?" Uranus suddenly invited Shin.

"Hahahaha! How interesting. If you want to back down, just say so." Shin laughed, looking at Uranus.

What was this about inviting him to become a god? He had clearly seen he was no match and wanted to back down and make peace.

Did he truly think Shin did not know?

"..." Hearing Shin's mocking laughter, Uranus's face grew darker and darker, and the aura around his body grew increasingly terrifying. No one had ever dared to laugh at him. All who had laughed at him were dead.
