Chapter 21 - 21. Shiro-Dama
[A/N: I saw some comments raging about why MC is not already OP. Bruh, it's only been 20 chaps.
And I advise all to write comments without using any curse words, even the word "Damn" will get your comment auto-deleted by the app, due to this I can't reply to many of your questions because I can only see them but they don't exist.]

"Tenken, do you think we can beat him?" Shiroken asked his sword. The old snake had calmed down a lot during the time they trained.
"I don't know, Shiro. He feels monstrous to me. Makes me feel he can destroy my blade with a touch." Tenken replied.
Shiroken sighed, he had not predicted this. He didn't even know who this person was. So he asked, "Who are you? And what are you even talking about? What source?"
"Haha, so you don't remember anything? I am Minoshiki Otsutsuki, one of the many gods of the universe, who rules everything. This small planet is nothing for us, destroying it is as easy as stomping on it. But we don't do that, because something valuable grows here..."
Shiroken gasped, "God Tree?"
"So you do know something. But, I am not here for the tree. I am here for you, you are far more valuable than a simple tree or a fruit." Minoshiki devilishly said. His voice only had contempt and bloodlust.
~So he's not after my family. If I can stop him, they can all leave safely~ He realised. Now he had decided. He was going to fight this being no matter what.
"Oh? Do you want to fight me? Haha... You may be better than most of the pests on this planet, but you still remain a pest. Let's see… I'll call you the king of pests." Minoshiki laughingly said. He was taunting Shiroken, so he would move first.
But Shiroken was taught better than that and did not move.
"Do you know who my real parents are?" Shiroken asked, thinking this person might know about his past.
Minoshiki started laughing as if he had heard the biggest joke, "Hahahaha... Parents? Your? No... We made you, pest king. You are a lab experiment."
Shiroken was saddened, but he felt this was a lie. If he was a lab experiment, how did he escape while being a baby? Why can't he remember anything from that time? There was surely more to it than what met the eye.
"Tsk... I'm getting impatient, let's end this now." Minoshiki declared.
*ZZZ...*
Shiroken didn't even notice and Minoshiki was gone, having disappeared from his place.
Nervously, he looked around himself. There was no sign of him, but he remained vigilant, trying to anticipate any movement.
*BAM*
He had ignored the above. A portal-like thing appeared and from inside an arm punched Shiroken's head. It was very heavy and meant to kill him in one strike.
Shiroken immediately used his arms to lessen the impact, but it still hurt him a lot, turning one of his arms into a paste. He was in pain now, but he used his other arm to try to push him away.
"AAAAAAA..."
"Amusing, the fact you did not die sets you above most of the mortal beings I have fought," Minoshiki praised him with an annoying smile on his face.
Shuriken staggered under the weight of his punch. ~I need to get out of this situation, or else my body will break~
Shiroken opened his mouth and did something Kurama had proudly taught him. The Bijuu-dama.
He looked up at Minoshiki. His mouth started to gather natural energy from around there. Normal Bijuu-dama was made of an 8:2 ratio of positive black chakra and negative white chakra.
But, Shiroken was different, he was a being made of Natural energy. For the most part, the tailed beasts thought Shiroken was just made of Chakra. So they tried to teach him their version of Bijuu-dama. But since it was found out that he was not made of Chakra, but rather made of Natural Energy, his method changed.
Now, what he gathered on his mouth was pure white Natural Energy and it creates a blast many times bigger than normal Bijuu-dama. His was now called Shiro-dama.
"What is this? Never seen anything like this before." Minoshiki was amused by this strange ball. He was of course well versed with Natural Energy, but he had never seen something this pure. Even the God Tree Beasts were not this pure.
~A little more... I need to make this count~ Shiroken thought and prayed that Minoshiki would not do anything until then.
"Heh, if you think that's going to hurt me... *BOOM*"
"Overconfidence," Shiroken shot the ball at him at lightning speed. Minoshiki was sent many kilometres back with the energy ball and soon, the blast sounded.
A blinding white light covered everything, from the sky to the land. Everything seemed as if it had lost colour and now it was all black and white world. The blast was so giant that it split the clouds above earth.
The sound only came a second later. It was ear-shattering. And along with it came strong winds that would put even the strongest storms to shame. The trees, the ground, the mountains, everything got uprooted. Immediately turning the place into a wasteland.
*FWOOOOO*
*BOOOOM*
The sound of whistling wind and the echo of the loud blast still lingering around, made the atmosphere seem depressing.
Shiroken knew this was his chance, he quickly found a still fine tree a distance away and put his unbroken hand on it. Then, he started doing the reverse of what he did while healing people. He started taking away Natural Energy from it.
He repeated it with a few more trees, and while doing so, slowly his shattered arm was healing automatically. But, there was one extra advantage Shiroken had that nobody else did. He did not have blood in his body.
He had used his own body's Natural Energy too. An explosion of this size was the result of this. If he had tried to gather the energy from the air, it would have taken him days. But, he had used a lot of his own, which now made him feel tired.
He was panting, trying to breathe in the energy from the remaining trees around him. He turned his head to look at where Minoshiki had fallen. "I hope this did some damage to him…"
...
Konohagakure,
Tobirama stood in front of the window of Hokage office, he was looking at the developing village. Every month a new big building would rise and change the scenery. He wanted to remember it all.
"I wonder if Hashirama was able to gather all of the beasts... AH! WHAT'S THAT?!"
The sky turned white as if the sun was exploding. Dread and anxiety took over the hearts and minds of everyone in the village, including Tobirama.
*BOOOOOOM*
*CRASH*
Then the loud booming sound came, all the glass windows in the entire village shattered. The strong winds then made many small shanties blow away. The elderly and kids fell down on the streets, unable to balance themselves.
After a whole 2 minutes that felt like an eternity, the eye-piercing light faded, but the booming sound still lingered.
"SEAL THE WHOLE VILLAGE! Send all ninjas to help the people. And send Hiruzen and the team there to see what it was." He ordered.
He was still looking outside and hoped his brother was safe.
In reality, the same was the case in all other nations and Shinobi villages, though not as destructive as in the Country of Fire.
...
10 Kilometres from where Shiroken fought.
Hashirama, in all his battle gear, was heading towards the place he doubted to be the home of Bijuu. He had not activated his Sage mode yet as it was heavy on the body and would be needed later.
*BOOM*
Just then he also faced the same things as Shiroken. He immediately stopped and punched on the ground, digging a hole for himself to jump in, then he used a wood release to cover the top.
He was very much experienced in dealing with Bijuu-dama. And what he just saw was many times crazier than that. His mind was going insane, running every possibility.
~Who could it be? 9-tails is the strongest, it cannot be other beasts.~ He wondered about its origin and waited for the storm outside to weaken first.
...
Dama Village,
The village was about 50 kilometres away from where Shiroken was fighting. As soon as the loud boom sounded and the storm came, all the homes in the village got destroyed.
But Monari had already reached and had evacuated everyone out of their homes. All the tailed beasts shielded the villagers from the effects of the blast.
"SHIROOO!" Saiken shouted in worry.
"We need to go there, we need to help him." Son Goku spoke.
"I agree, I cannot imagine what could have caused Shiro to throw such a powerful Bijuu-dama. If what Monari said is right, it's the Otsutsuki." Gyuki noted.
"I agree, let's go and help him," Matatabi added.
Chomei was ready to fly, "Whoever dares to mess with Shiro, will get my punch. Nobody gets to hurt my child."
Chomei was the one who had adopted Shiroken before anybody. He loved the boy as a parent.
"I WILL GO TOO!" Monari jumped between them.
"You are underestimating the powers of an Otsutsuki, child," Kokuo warned her.
She activated her Mangekyo, "I may be weak, but not with this."
They looked at each other and nodded, "Fine then, let's go."
Monari looked back at her husband, Jin. "I will return, I promise. Please, take all the villagers away from here. As far as you can."
"I will come with you too." Jin requested impatiently.
Monari quickly hugged him with a sad face, "Please, don't. You are not a Shinobi. Without chakra, you will only have your own body. And do you think you can survive what you just saw?"
Jin's face fell. He was once again facing reality. No matter how much he trained, he can't be equal to a Shinobi. He clenched his fist.
"Fine, I will protect the villagers. Bring back, Shiro." He kissed her and left with all the villagers. Thankfully, everyone was physically enhanced so their speed was good.
With nothing holding them back, all tailed beasts ran full speed towards Shiroken, destroying everything that came in their path.
...
Back in the wasteland,
The dust was finally starting to settle. A coughing sound was coming from the middle.
Shiroken looked closely at it, to see how much damage he had done. But, when he clearly saw it, his heart sank. He expected some deformation in the body, but there was nothing. Except for a small drop of red blood, oozing from the nose.
Minoshiki seethed in rage. This was the first time in many millennia that he was bleeding, "YOU PEST!! YOU… MADE ME BLEED? ME?"
Shiroken looked calm. ~He has a god complex, he's angry. I need to persevere as much as possible to find chances to strike him good~
*WOOSH*
Shiroken sidestepped instinctively, in a split second, a dark endless abyss formed where he stood just a second ago. It was a portal to god knows where.
Shiroken's face tightened as he felt he lacked one thing right now, ~I wish I could fly~
[A/N: Oh boy, it's going to be total chaos with Hashirama also arriving.]
