People Beneath the Blood Moon

"This feeling of palpitations..."

In the Hokage's Office, Tsunade stood by the window, gazing at the blood-red moon in the sky, her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, her face filled with horror.

Even though Tsunade wasn't a sensory ninja, the immense Chakra emanating from afar still made Tsunade feel suffocated and oppressed.

"Jiraiya..."

"What exactly happened in the Land of Rain?"

Even if Tsunade knew nothing about it, let alone that she already knew some information, she would know that something big must have happened in the Land of Rain.

"Shizune!"

Tsunade abruptly turned to Shizune, who was standing to the side. "Prepare for the Five Kage Summit immediately."

"We can't wait any longer!"

"We must go to the Land of Rain immediately. This time, I will go myself!"

"Yes!" Shizune replied and hurriedly ran out of the office.

"What is going on?"

Tsunade muttered to herself, "I hope everything goes well for Jiraiya and the others!"

At this moment, even Tsunade felt a sense of constraint and regretted inviting the other four Kage to Konoha.

Even if the Five Kage Summit had not been convened, Tsunade could have decisively ordered the gathering of personnel to investigate the Land of Rain, even if it were just Konoha.

But now the other four Kage are all in Konoha.

If Tsunade were to mobilize a large number of elite troops to the Land of Rain at this moment, wouldn't that give the other villages an opportunity to investigate Konoha's secrets?

"Asshole!"

Tsunade couldn't help but curse.

These days, Tsunade is already thankful if these villages don't even hinder Konoha, let alone help Konoha.

Hyuga residence.

Hyuga Hiashi and Minako Hyuga stood side by side at the doorway, their gazes both fixed on the Blood Moon in the sky.

"Is it finally starting?!"

Hiashi Hyuga turned to look at Minako and said gently, "Something big will happen in the Shinobi World Hyuga Hiashi. You are pregnant, so don't leave my side."

Indeed, after a long period of hard work, Hiashi Hyuga, who had experienced a second Hyuga Hiashi in his life, finally had his third child.

In just a few more months, once the baby in Minako's belly is a little bigger, Hyuga Hiashi will be able to determine the baby's gender using his Byakugan.

"Um!"

Minako nodded gently.

Although she didn't know what Hyuga Hiashi and Hinata were plotting, as a traditional woman, she wouldn't ask.

Being a good wife and mother, and protecting her family—that's all Minako has to offer now.

Infinite Tsukuyomi!

Thinking of this, Hyuga Hiashi's white pupils suddenly expanded outwards, Rinnegan instantly activated.

The Infinite Tsukuyomi absorbs a person's life force. In order to protect Minako and the child in her womb, Hyuga Hiashi could only use the Dojutsu power of his Rinnegan to fight against it.

Even Hanabi was summoned over and is now sleeping peacefully inside.

Turning her head to look at Hyuga Hiashi, Minako hesitated before asking, "Hinata will be alright, right?"

"Um!"

Hyuga Hiashi patted Minako on the shoulder and gently comforted her, "Don't worry, we've prepared everything."

"With Hinata's strength, even if something unexpected happens, there will be no danger."

If Hinata didn't know how to Yomotsu Hirasaka, Hyuga Hiashi might have worried about Hinata's safety.

Space-time ninjutsu is a life-saving technique; as long as Hinata doesn't have the determination to fight to the death, she won't be in any danger.

Will Hinata fight to the death?

Of course not!

If it's not to protect something important in her life, why would Hinata risk her life?

Even if she fails this time, as long as Hinata retains her strength, she will naturally have a chance to make a comeback.

The Land of Rain.

Hinata floated in the air, her gaze fixed on the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, Madara Uchiha, through Artificial Satellite.

This moment was arguably the most glorious moment of Ban's life.

But this glory was too short-lived.

But the fall from grace after the glory shattered almost instantly everything Madara Uchiha had.

For Madara Uchiha, death was not frightening; what was frightening was that he spent the rest of his life in deception, being manipulated by Black Zetsu.

His tragedy was just like Nagato's!

Sasuke, Obito, and Black Zetsu watched all this silently. Madara Uchiha, holding the Sage's Madara Uchiha, stood proudly in mid-air, his gaze also fixed on the Blood Moon in the night sky.

In the depths of his being, Madara Uchiha seemed to already know what he was about to do.

Summon the God Tree, allow it to absorb Natural Energy and return to its peak, then merge with the God Tree and activate Infinite Tsukuyomi.

From this day forward, this world will belong to Madara Uchiha; he will be the god of the new world!

Smack!

Madara Uchiha his hands together and slowly formed several hand seals.

"Summoning Technique!"

Madara Uchiha's voice carried a hint of coldness, as if it came from the void.

A sapling broke through the soil and in the blink of an eye, it soared straight up into the sky, its blood-red flowers dazzling and beautiful, echoing the Blood Moon in the night sky.

Hinata could vaguely sense a powerful will about to awaken—the will of Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Is it finally coming?

Hinata was somewhat excited.

After nearly three years of planning, Hinata is now eager to see the progenitor of Chakra as the plan is about to be realized.

Regardless of Kaguya Otsutsuki's character, she truly deserves the title of "Progenitor of Chakra".

Imagine if Kaguya Otsutsuki hadn't come to the Ninja World; the people of that world would never have come into contact Chakra or understood Chakra.

If Kaguya Otsutsuki had not betrayed the Otsutsuki clan and had not taken control of the God Tree by herself, the Shinobi World would not be what it is today.

Perhaps the people of this world are still living in a daze, unaware of the nature of power.

Hinata is not from this world, but she came into contact with power and the hope of immortality in this world, and she began to grow in this world.

All of this is inextricably linked to Kaguya Otsutsuki, the Progenitor of Chakra.

Of course, the Sage of Six Paths also played a very important role.

If the Sage of Six Paths hadn't sealed Kaguya Otsutsuki, and if he hadn't spread the Ninshu Sage of Six Paths, the people of this world wouldn't know about Chakra.

Of course, as someone who has always disliked the Sage of Sage of Six Paths, Hinata would never acknowledge Sage of Six Paths achievements.

After all, since Hinata is now trying to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki, someone has to take the blame.

However, if Kaguya Otsutsuki is foolish enough to be greedy and take back all her Chakra, Hinata wouldn't mind helping the Sage of Six Paths restore his reputation.

As for the future... Hinata has already made plans!

As I said before, ambition is ambition, and life is life. Hinata doesn't want to be alone and pursue power without any friends.

Those who stop at nothing to gain power are merely puppets of power.

Hinata knows what she wants and understands what is truly important.

Fortunately, Hinata is not a swordsman like those in martial arts novels, and she has no intention of creating an enemy for herself.

Meanwhile, Madara Uchiha hovered silently in mid-air, gazing at the God Tree before him.

Next, we just need to wait for the God Tree to recover to its full glory and then merge with it.
