Chapter Summaries

After Kaguya transported the fighters to a desert dimension, Isshiki and Orochimaru unleashed a reanimated army that helped the Ninja World attack four wounded Otsutsuki. On a barren star, Liuyun exploited Reishiki’s Byakugan weakness and Kamui to gain the advantage, while Reishiki prepared to risk everything.

• Kaguya transported everyone to the desert dimension, where Isshiki and Orochimaru summoned an army of reanimated shinobi, and Nanao called Black Dragon from Ryūchi Cave.
• Isshiki and Kaguya led the reanimated fighters against the four Otsutsuki, whose damaged souls left them unable to withstand the Ninja World’s repeated attacks.
• On the barren star, Liuyun evaded Reishiki’s sword strike with Kamui, while his Eternal Day ability punished Reishiki for using the Byakugan.
• Liuyun and Reishiki clashed with their weapons, and Liuyun realized Reishiki’s Black Blade was exceptionally durable and changed tactics to lure attacks he could evade.
• Reishiki countered Liuyun’s sword strike with All-Killing Ash Bones, but Liuyun used Kamui Etherealization to escape them.
• Unable to rely on his Byakugan or land a decisive hit, Reishiki decided to gamble everything.

Liuyun used his enhanced Dojutsu, Sage Mana, and Susanoo armor to fight Otsutsuki Reishiki on a barren planet. He severed Reishiki’s arm but sacrificed and regenerated his own after an All-Killing Ash Bone struck an unprotected joint, then charged again while Kamui Black Lightning hindered Reishiki’s regeneration.

• Otsutsuki Reishiki activated his Karma and sensory magnetic field, while Liuyun unleashed his Nine-Tomoe Golden Sage Robe and overwhelmed it with his power.

• Liuyun covered himself in Susanoo armor, dragon scales, and Truth-Seeking Orbs, then endured Reishiki’s bone strikes to cut off Reishiki’s shoulder and arm.
• An All-Killing Ash Bone struck Liuyun’s elbow, so he cut off his crumbling arm and rapidly regenerated a new one.
• Liuyun’s Kamui Black Lightning obstructed Reishiki’s regeneration, and Liuyun charged at him again with the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.

Liuyun fought Otsutsuki Reishiki, who burned all his Chakra to unleash a forbidden technique and promised to kill him within three strikes. After two devastating blows overcame Liuyun’s defenses, Reishiki’s third strike swallowed Liuyun and split the planet in two.

• Liuyun pressed his advantage, but Otsutsuki Reishiki reshaped the All-Killing Ash Bones to defend himself.
• Otsutsuki Reishiki ignited his Chakra with the Kaguya Seal and declared that he would kill Liuyun within three strikes.
• Reishiki’s first attack knocked the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi from Liuyun’s hand and sent him flying, while Liuyun’s Kamui failed to stop Reishiki.
• Liuyun used the Flying Thunder God Technique to reach the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, but Reishiki struck him from a distance and cut him in half.
• As white roots tried to reconnect Liuyun’s body, Reishiki unleashed his third strike, swallowed both halves, and split the planet in two.

Liuyun survived Otsutsuki Reishiki’s three slashes, defeated and captured him, then used Flying Thunder God to join Nanao in the Desert Dimension. He left Reishiki sealed in the Kamui Dimension while Nanao restrained a young Otsutsuki man.

• Otsutsuki Reishiki’s third slash split Liuyun into four pieces, but Liuyun used an illusion-like ability to restore himself and appear behind Reishiki.
• Liuyun stabbed and restrained Otsutsuki Reishiki with Truth-Seeking Orb swords, then gouged out his eyes and tried to search his memories.
• Otsutsuki Reishiki resisted the soul search so fiercely that his consciousness became disordered, and Liuyun sealed him inside the Kamui Dimension.
• Liuyun sensed the Desert Dimension and used Flying Thunder God to appear beside Nanao, who was restraining a young Otsutsuki man with sealing chains.

Liuyun joined the battle in the Desert Dimension and helped the allied forces defeat and restrain Otsutsuki Meishiki. After examining the memories of a slain Otsutsuki, Liuyun discovered that the enemy had a Karma vessel on the Otsutsuki Clan's planet and could be resurrected.

• Liuyun examined the slain Otsutsuki's memories with the Yamanaka Clan's secret technique and learned that its Karma vessel lived on the Otsutsuki Clan's planet.

After the battle, Liuyun captured the remaining Otsutsuki and prepared the Ninja World for the threat of their clan. The group returned to Heavenly Hidden Village, where several resurrected warriors asked to visit their descendants and former homes.

• Madara Uchiha and other Impure World Reincarnation bodies asked to visit their homes, and Orochimaru allowed them to go as long as they did not disturb the living.

Otsutsuki Reishiki reported that he and Meishiki had defeated a powerful human cultivator who had consumed a Supreme God Fruit, and the Otsutsuki Clan discovered the enormous God Tree where the battle had taken place. Otsutsuki Ya Cang first ordered Reishiki to bring the tree back, but the Second Elder urged him to leave it rooted in its fertile location until it could bear another fruit.

• The Otsutsuki Second Elder urged Ya Cang to leave the God Tree in its fertile location so it could produce another Supreme God Fruit a thousand years later, and Ya Cang reconsidered.

Liuyun bought the Ninja World time by deceiving Otsutsuki Ya Cang, but learned the Otsutsuki Clan could return in about twenty years. To protect his world and family, he planned to leave early and draw the clan’s attention away from it.

Liuyun warned Nagato and the other leaders to enforce Heavenly Hidden Village’s laws and entrusted them with protecting his family before he departed in five days. At Yamikage Estate, he comforted his family and explained why Kushina and Junlin had to stay behind, leaving them to face the coming separation.

Liuyun prepared for an expedition beyond the Ninja World, leaving powerful clones and plans for the Cosmic Flying Boat with his family and Orochimaru. After a tearful farewell, he entered the cosmic starry sky and headed toward two rogue Otsutsuki, hoping to reach them before Otsutsuki Feiyu was resurrected.

• Liuyun and Orochimaru studied the Otsutsuki Clan Cosmic Flying Boat while Kushina volunteered to help imprint its formulas.
• Liuyun created two Reanimation Jutsu clones from captured Otsutsuki, assigning one to stay with his family and the other to accompany Orochimaru's expedition.

Liuyun used Ōtsutsuki Reishiki and Ōtsutsuki Meishiki’s controlled bodies to approach a planet where Yangshiki guarded a God Tree. After learning that Yangshiki had doubled the sacrifices and called the inhabitants two-legged sheep, Liuyun released his Ten-Tails to devour the inferior God Tree, leaving Yangshiki devastated.

• Liuyun arrived at a living planet with a God Tree and sent the controlled Ōtsutsuki Reishiki and Ōtsutsuki Meishiki to meet its guards, Yangshiki and Yinshiki.
• Ōtsutsuki Reishiki claimed he and Ōtsutsuki Meishiki had come to rest, then asked Yangshiki about the God Tree and its sacrifices.

• Ōtsutsuki Reishiki released Liuyun’s giant Ten-Tails and ordered it to devour Yangshiki’s God Tree.
• Yangshiki pleaded for the God Tree he had cultivated for eight hundred years, but the Ten-Tails caught and began swallowing it.

Otsutsuki Ya Cang failed to persuade Otsutsuki Reishiki to surrender the God Tree and declared him a traitor. As the five supreme God Realm experts debated Reishiki’s motives, Ya Cang suspected Meishiki’s God Slaying Dōjutsu could help Reishiki possess Liuyun’s body.

• Otsutsuki Ya Cang offered Otsutsuki Reishiki another thousand years if he handed the God Tree to Yangshiki, but Reishiki refused and Ya Cang cut off their communication.
