Chapter Summaries

Nonō discovered a horrifying ritual beneath the cavern, where a baby vessel was sustained by sacrifices. Ingetsu exposed the Evil God’s deception, imprisoned it, and destroyed the blood monster, though the Evil God’s greater plans remained unresolved.

• Nonō used her Byakugan to find a baby held in a Water Prison above a blood pool, surrounded by suffering captives whose life energy was being drained.
• Ingetsu confronted the Evil God in the Cage Space and deduced that it had hunted an Otsutsuki with time-traveling powers before trying to eliminate Ingetsu.
• The Evil God tried to flee after Ingetsu exposed its scheme, but Ingetsu told Hashirama, Tobirama, and Minato to watch rather than intervene.
• Ingetsu returned to Rin and Nonō, brought them through a Space Gate, and lifted the baby vessel from the blood pool.
• The blood pool became a giant monster after Ingetsu broke the chains, but Ingetsu vaporized it and freed the captives from their Water Prisons.

Ingetsu entered the Ryūmyaku Space and followed the Evil God into the timeline of Konoha’s destruction, leaving Nonō and Rin to defend the cave. In Konoha, the Evil God’s cursed power turned the Nine-Tails and Danzo’s summon against the village, and Sarutobi Hiruzen faced a lethal blow as he attacked the Evil God.

• Ingetsu infused Nonō and Rin with transformed energy, then opened a Space Gate and entered the Ryūmyaku Space.

• Sarutobi Hiruzen leaped toward the Evil God with Enma transformed into the Adamantine Staff, but the Nine-Tails struck at him from behind.

The Evil God devastated Konoha as the Nine-Tails and Baku overwhelmed Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo, Utatane Koharu, and Mitokado Homura. Ingetsu arrived, destroyed Baku and the Hokage Building, restrained the Nine-Tails, and began attacking the Evil God, which tried to bargain with him.

• The Nine-Tails struck Sarutobi Hiruzen unconscious, while Baku blasted Danzo, Utatane Koharu, and Mitokado Homura away and crushed them beneath its body.
• The Evil God absorbed energy from Konoha and ordered the Nine-Tails and Baku to stop Ingetsu as the sky distorted.
• Ingetsu appeared and cut Baku in half with a black sword aura, then used two Complete Body Susanoo to pin down the Nine-Tails.
• Four more Susanoo attacked the Hokage Building, vaporizing it and forcing the Evil God to defend itself with an energy sphere.
• Ingetsu stopped time and used a Dark Red Susanoo to break the Evil God's defenses, forcing it to abandon the energy it had absorbed and evade his attacks.
• Ingetsu restarted time, and the Evil God called out to him, asking to discuss the matter rather than be destroyed.

Ingetsu defeated and absorbed the Evil God, learning that it recognized him as a mysterious being called “Him” and hinted at a final truth. He cleansed the Nine-Tails and returned to the ruined Leaf Village, where Danzo accused the Uchiha Clan of causing the attack after Ingetsu revealed his Mangekyō Sharingan.

• Danzo accused the Uchiha Clan of controlling the Nine-Tails and demanded that Fugaku answer for the village’s destruction.
• Tamao rushed to Ingetsu’s side, defended him against Danzo, and prepared to stand with his big brother.
• Ingetsu killed Danzo with beams fired from his Mangekyō Sharingan, leaving only ash and a crater.
• Utatane Koharu ordered the ANBU and other ninjas to arrest Ingetsu, and they charged at him.
• Ingetsu unleashed a force that collapsed the ruined village, then summoned multiple Complete Body Susanoo as Tamao stood inside one of them.

As dawn arrived, he told Tamao that this world would cease to exist and that Tamao would lose his memories, but promised they would live together in another timeline.

• Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura watched in despair as the Susanoo army advanced, while Leaf Village ninjas who tried to fight were killed and the rest fled.
• Fugaku pleaded with Ingetsu to stop, but Ingetsu continued the destruction, and the Uchiha followed him instead of their clan head.

• Ingetsu entered the Ten-Tails Space and absorbed the purified Evil God energy, transforming his body and strengthening his abilities.
• At dawn, Ingetsu told Tamao that he would leave, that Tamao would lose his memories, and that this world would cease to exist; he reassured him that they would live together along another timeline.

The Mist Ninja then revealed its own advances, including a fleet of submarines and a massive vessel called an Aircraft Carrier.

The Stone Shinobi were building the Underground City as a refuge for people if total war made the surface uninhabitable.

• Mei Terumi explained that Ingetsu had paired the Mist Village’s aircraft carrier with Sky Ninja flying devices, and Chojuro ordered a flight demonstration.

After the captured ninjas were taken away, Team Kakashi returned to Gaara, who collected feedback on the Flying Puppets and explained that their use would remain restricted until they were perfected.

• A Prajna Group member seized Sakura, but she revealed that the captive was a log and that the team had used Genjutsu and reversed radio communications to deceive the ambushers.

Ingetsu and the others traveled to Dark Star, where Evil God guided them to the underground empire ruled by its brother’s clone. Ingetsu infiltrated the Core World and found Agulu imprisoned and tortured by the Corrosion King.

• Ingetsu found Agulu imprisoned in an energy cage beside the Corrosion King, who electrocuted it for taking the appearance of the Corruptors.
• Agulu begged for forgiveness, and the Corrosion King ordered it to serve loyally if it wanted to stay alive.

• Agulu told Ingetsu that the Corrosion Clan was preparing to attack a technologically superior civilization, and Ingetsu had Agulu deal with the Corrosion King while he waited above.

• Ingetsu summoned the Evil God to the Prison Space, and Agulu and the Evil God fused together.
