Chapter Summaries

Soji swiftly defeated Code and Dimon after confronting Ada, taking control of the battle and forcing her to surrender. Ada agreed to undo Omnipotence if Soji released her brother, and Soji freed Dimon from his genjutsu.

• Soji bypassed Naruto and confronted Ada, Dimon, and Code, then evaded Code’s Claw Mark attack and knocked him aside with Ice Surface Shift.
• Soji blocked Dimon’s psychic attack, slammed him into the ground, and trapped him in Dovanten genjutsu.
• Toneri subdued Code while Soji controlled Dimon, leaving Ada isolated and unable to fight back.
• Ada surrendered and offered to undo Omnipotence if Soji let Dimon go.
• Soji snapped his fingers to release Dimon from the genjutsu, and Dimon woke with Soji standing near Ada.

Soji defeated Ada and Dimon’s attempt to seize the Chakra Fruit, learned their Divine Arts came from Otsutsuki Yamai, and sealed both siblings after Ada lifted Omnipotence. Left alone at the God Tree, he watched its fruit mature and swallowed the Chakra Fruit whole.

• Ada stopped Dimon from attacking Soji again and admitted that they had lost.
• Boruto explained Ada and Dimon’s Divine Arts to Naruto and Sasuke, including Omnipotence, Charm, and Killing Intent Reflection.
• Ada undid Omnipotence, and Soji placed Two Forms Sealing on Ada and Dimon before the shinobi returned to their villages.
• Soji learned from Momoshiki that the siblings’ Divine Arts came from Otsutsuki Yamai and decided to study their abilities to prepare for her.
• After the God Tree’s petals fell, its Chakra Fruit appeared and landed in Soji’s hand.
• Soji brought the Chakra Fruit to his mouth, and it flowed down his throat until he had swallowed it whole.

After eating the Chakra Fruit, Soji reached Kekkei Mōra, releasing chakra powerful enough to alarm the entire Ninja World. He awakened a Nine Tomoe Rinne Sharingan and began adapting to his transformed body and new abilities.

• Soji finished the Chakra Fruit, and his chakra reserves surged as people across the Ninja World sensed his overwhelming presence.
• Naruto and Sasuke recognized Soji's chakra as comparable to Kaguya Otsutsuki's, while Soji spread his chakra across the Ninja World and tested his new power.
• Soji realized that he had become ageless and immortal, and that his transformation to Kekkei Mōra had changed him far more than a simple increase in chakra.
• Pain at Soji's forehead subsided as a crimson Nine Tomoe Rinne Sharingan opened between his brows.
• Soji tested the eye's heightened perception and dojutsu power, then prepared to adjust to his increased strength and three-eyed vision.

After reaching the Kekkei Mōra level, Soji gained numerous powerful abilities, including deadly attacks, nature-based combat, and new Rinnegan techniques. He chose to seal away abilities that could enslave or destroy the world, while keeping techniques that could help him face threats such as Kaguya.

• Soji mastered Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack and awakened All-Killing Ash Bones, deciding not to use the lethal bone technique on friends or casually.
• Soji gained Infinite Tsukuyomi and God: Wood Style: Deep Forest Emergence, but sealed both because he did not intend to trap people or absorb the Ninja World's Chakra.
• Soji mastered Nature Assimilation, which let him merge with natural elements, resist their damage, and attack with power that absorption abilities could not counter.
• Soji discovered that he had not gained Kaguya's Amenominaka, Expanding Truth-Seeking Orb, or Rabbit Hair Needles, though he remained pleased with his transformation.
• Soji gained Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei as a way to seal immortal Kaguya and learned the Outer Path: Reanimation Jutsu, which consumed large amounts of Chakra but not his life force.

After reaching the Kekkei Mōra realm, Soji gained absolute control over the Ten-Tails and discovered its abilities, including the power to unleash natural disasters. As he practiced under the night sky, he failed to notice his emotions fading and his divinity growing stronger than his humanity.

• Soji used his Nine Tomoe Rinne Sharingan to create a personal space where he could store the Ten-Tails, which had returned to its original form after producing a Chakra Fruit.
• Soji learned that the Ten-Tails obeyed him completely and could use devastating techniques, including Heavenly Upheaval, but he had forbidden it from casting Infinite Tsukuyomi.
• Soji discovered that he could use the Six Paths Ten-Tails Coffin Seal to become the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki, though he chose not to do so for now.
• Soji sensed that his Nine Tomoe Rinne Sharingan had an undiscovered exclusive Dojutsu and found that he was immune to time-based abilities.
• As Soji practiced his abilities beneath the stars, his gaze became cold and his emotions continued to fade, though he did not notice his humanity diminishing as his divinity grew.

Soji remained in the future Parallel Universe to study Ada and Dimon's Divine Arts while his humanity weakened and his divinity grew. In his own timeline, the Allied Forces prepared to attack the Akatsuki Organization in the Land of Wind, but White Zetsu delivered a declaration of war before they could depart.

• Soji returned to Konoha in the future Parallel Universe and began studying Ada and Dimon's abilities after Naruto gave permission.
• More than ninety thousand allied shinobi gathered outside rebuilt Konoha as the Akatsuki Organization prepared nearly one hundred thousand White Zetsu Clones and resurrected dead shinobi with Impure World Reincarnation.
• The Five Kage agreed to attack the Akatsuki Organization in the Land of Wind, and Mizuki Ember, Soji's alter ego, ordered the war to begin.
• White Zetsu emerged in the meeting hall and declared that the Akatsuki Organization had found the One-Tails Jinchuriki and would start the Fourth Ninja World War unless the Five Great Shinobi Villages handed over the Nine-Tails.
• The Fourth Raikage struck the table in anger and prepared to attack White Zetsu, but Minato stopped him.

Soji killed the White Zetsu Clone who declared war on the Five Great Shinobi Villages, winning the allied leaders’ approval and boosting morale. The villages then mobilized for war and sent their forces to the Land of Wind, while Soji remained unaware that Obito had turned his attention toward Madara Uchiha.

• White Zetsu declared that the Akatsuki Organization would await the Five Great Shinobi Villages in the Land of Wind, announcing the start of the Fourth Shinobi World War.
• Soji asked whether the White Zetsu Clone had finished speaking, then killed it with an Ice Spike despite its protest that envoys should not be killed.
• The Fourth Raikage and the other village leaders praised Soji’s decisive action, and the allied forces’ morale rose.
• Soji searched for Obito with the Byakugan but found no trace of him, unaware that Obito had left the Akatsuki’s war plans behind to seek revenge on Madara Uchiha.
• The Five Great Shinobi Villages announced war on the Akatsuki Organization, established a command headquarters in Konoha, and assigned Shikaku Nara as chief strategist.
• Soji divided the forces among five battle divisions, and the eighty thousand allied shinobi and ten thousand-strong surprise attack force marched toward the Land of Wind.

Nagato prepared the Akatsuki Organization to wage the Fourth Shinobi World War in the Land of Wind, relying on Disonas’s Impure World Reincarnation army and one hundred thousand White Zetsu. He planned to use Gaara as bait to draw the Allied Forces into the desert, while Obito’s revealed identity and the organization’s internal rivalries left its unity uncertain.

• Zetsu reported that his clone had lost contact, and Nagato ordered the Akatsuki Organization to prepare for war after the Five Great Shinobi Villages rejected his offer.
• Nagato revealed that Tobi was Madara Uchiha, and Konan recounted Obito’s deeds to bolster the Akatsuki members’ morale.
• Disonas assured Nagato that his Impure World Reincarnation army was ready, while secretly planning to seize power and keep the revived corpse Black Zetsu had given him for himself.
• Black Zetsu confirmed that one hundred thousand White Zetsu were prepared, and Nagato said the Akatsuki would wait for the Allied Forces to enter the Land of Wind.
• Deidara asked why the Akatsuki had not captured Gaara, and Shisui correctly guessed that Nagato was using the One-Tails Jinchuriki as bait to lure the Allied Forces into the desert.

Nagato prepared the Land of Wind as a trap, using Gaara as bait to draw the Allied Forces of the Five Great Shinobi Villages into an ambush. The alliance marched into the desert while Soji remained at Konoha’s command headquarters, held back by the other leaders and village officials.

• Nagato explained that the Akatsuki had delayed capturing Gaara to lure the allied forces into the Land of Wind, and Deidara and Kakuzu accepted the plan.
• Nagato ordered the Akatsuki to surround Gaara and wait for the allied forces, while one hundred thousand White Zetsu and the Impure World Reincarnation army prepared to ambush them across the desert.
• After the White Zetsu Clone declared war, eighty to ninety thousand allied shinobi advanced into the Land of Wind under the other Four Kage.
• Soji planned to join the advance, but Minato, the other Kage, and village officials kept him at Konoha’s headquarters to preserve morale and limit his influence on the battlefield.
• Soji remained at headquarters with the alliance’s staff, ready to join the fight if needed, and accepted his role coordinating and supporting the forces from afar.

The Allied Forces of the Five Great Shinobi Villages entered the Land of Wind and began advancing toward Gaara, attacking White Zetsu hidden beneath the desert. Nagato had deliberately exposed some of the clones as bait, and the allied forces lowered their guard as their advance seemed easy.

• Civilians near the Land of Wind fled or moved overseas as the Fourth Ninja World War began.
• Minato reported that the allied divisions were in position, and Soji ordered them to locate and support Gaara.
• The five divisions deployed Hyuga Clan members and Sensory Ninja to scout the desert and uncover hidden White Zetsu Clones.
• The allied forces attacked the exposed White Zetsu with ninjutsu and Explosive Tags, forcing many clones out of the sand.
• Nagato revealed that he had deliberately exposed some White Zetsu as bait to draw the allied forces deeper into the desert.
• The allied forces advanced confidently after eliminating the clones, while some shinobi grew complacent and lowered their guard.

Shikaku Nara suspected that the Akatsuki Organization was luring the Allied Forces into a trap, and Soji advised him to plan as though every possibility were dangerous. Shikaku ordered a quiet withdrawal while the remaining shinobi continued advancing, leaving the alliance prepared for a possible ambush.

• Shikaku Nara grew uneasy as the Allied Forces of the Five Great Shinobi Villages advanced with almost no resistance, and Dodai agreed that the smooth progress seemed suspicious.
• Shikaku suspected that the Akatsuki Organization had exposed part of the White Zetsu army to draw the allied forces deeper before launching a surprise attack.
• Soji told Shikaku to treat the advance as a trap and make cautious arrangements rather than worry about whether his suspicion was correct.
• Shikaku accepted Soji's advice and sent his plan to the five division commanders without presenting the suspected trap as confirmed fact.
• Minato, the Fourth Raikage, Mei Terumi, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, and the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki discussed the order and ultimately agreed to obey headquarters.
• The five division commanders quietly withdrew some shinobi from the Land of Wind while the rest continued advancing as if nothing had changed.

Nagato unleashed hidden White Zetsu ambushers against the Allied Forces of the Five Great Shinobi Villages after they advanced deep into the Land of Wind. Shikaku Nara’s precautions enabled the alliance to counter-encircle them, but Nagato believed his other traps would still decide the war.

• Nagato ordered White Zetsu to activate ambushers hidden behind and beneath the alliance’s advance, and they attacked from the desert sands.
• The White Zetsu ambush killed many shinobi and disrupted the alliance, while Shikaku Nara’s headquarters learned the attack matched their suspicions.
• Shikaku Nara ordered alliance shinobi positioned outside the Land of Wind to counter-ambush the White Zetsu, turning the encirclement against them.
• The clash ended with White Zetsu suffering three times the alliance’s casualties, and Nagato acknowledged that his forces had lost the first round.
• Nagato recalled that White Zetsu were only an appetizer and that his other arrangements, including Disonas’s role, remained to come.

Disonas summoned an Impure World Reincarnation army onto the battlefield, shocking the Allied Forces of the Five Great Shinobi Villages. Orochimaru, Tsunade, and Jiraiya recognized the forbidden jutsu, while Soji reacted with disbelief when headquarters reported the coffins.

• Nagato told Disonas to unleash his Impure World Reincarnation army, and Disonas boasted that the Allied Forces would see its strength.
• Disonas clasped his hands and summoned the jutsu, causing countless coffins to rise from the desert after the Allied Forces had fought the White Zetsu.
• Orochimaru recognized the coffins as a sign of Impure World Reincarnation, and Tsunade and Jiraiya identified the forbidden jutsu as well.
• Orochimaru realized that Disonas had likely learned the jutsu through their past research together, prompting Tsunade to blame him before Jiraiya calmed her down.
• The Allied Forces' squad commanders reported the coffins to headquarters, and Soji sat upright in disbelief as Dodai asked what was inside them.

Soji recognized Disonas’s reanimation technique as the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu, and Shikaku Nara warned the Allied Forces how to fight the reanimated dead. Disonas forced the resurrected fighters to choose between fighting willingly and surrendering control of their bodies, and most chose to fight on their own terms.

• Soji explained his knowledge of the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu by referring to the past Chunin Exams, though Shikaku Nara remained suspicious of Mizuki Ember.
• Shikaku Nara alerted the Allied Forces that the reanimated dead had immortal bodies and infinite Chakra, and that sealing techniques were needed to stop them.
• The coffins opened, and the reanimated dead recovered from their cracked bodies and awoke on the battlefield.
• Disonas told the reanimated dead about the war and threatened to control them if they refused to fight the Allied Forces.
• Most of the reanimated dead chose to fight willingly so they could retain control of their bodies, pleasing Disonas.

Mu, Hozuki Gengetsu, Shimizugawa, A, Shamon, and the Third Kazekage were reanimated and gathered in the Land of Wind. Mu and Hozuki Gengetsu argued over their rivalry while the others considered the threat of being turned against Kirigakure, and the chapter ended by revealing the final figure as the Third Kazekage.

• Mu asked the reanimated Kage what they should do about their summoner’s intentions, and Hozuki Gengetsu challenged him to settle their old rivalry.
• Shimizugawa stopped Hozuki Gengetsu and asked whether they would really become enemies of Kirigakure and its allies.
• A watched the argument in silence as he considered seeing the current state of Kumogakure.
• The group reasoned that the two remaining reanimated figures had to be Kazekage rather than Hokage.
• The bald man was identified as Shamon, the Second Kazekage, and the final figure was revealed to be the Third Kazekage.

The six reanimated Kage discussed their pasts and the Allied Forces after the Third Kazekage recounted his miserable experiences with being revived and made to fight. They agreed to meet the new generation of shinobi and judge whether the Ninja World could achieve peace, while Shamon invited Setsugo to meet Sunagakure’s shinobi.

• Setsugo described how Orochimaru had repeatedly revived him and how his body had later been turned into a puppet, prompting Shamon and the other Kage to pity him.
• Ghost Lantern Illusion Moon teased Setsugo about fighting his own body, but the reanimated Kage did not turn on one another because Disonas could control them.
• The Third Raikage urged the Kage to decide what to do before Disonas forced them to fight the Allied Forces of the Five Great Shinobi Villages.
• Ghost Lantern Illusion Moon and Mu reflected on the alliance and whether the new generation could bring lasting peace to the Ninja World.
• The Kage agreed to meet the new generation, and Shamon invited Setsugo to meet Sunagakure’s shinobi while privately looking forward to meeting Sasori.

The six reincarnated Kage headed toward the Allied Forces, while Nagato began his plan to capture Gaara and draw out the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. As powerful reincarnated fighters poured into the battle and overwhelmed the Allied Forces, the conflict intensified.

• Third Kazekage Setsugo agreed to join the other five reincarnated Kage as they rushed toward the Allied Forces.
• Nagato sent the Akatsuki Organization members to fight the Allied Forces and announce that Gaara would be captured unless the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki came to rescue him.
• The reincarnated dead attacked the Allied Forces under Disonas’s control, though some warned their opponents or fought half-heartedly.
• The Allied Forces struggled to seal the immortal reincarnated fighters and faced a continuing assault from White Zetsu.
• The Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the Gold and Silver Brothers, Gari, Seimei, Troy, Shinnō, and Hanzō joined the battle, increasing pressure on the Allied Forces.

The Allied Forces faced the arrival of powerful reincarnated Kage-level fighters as Soji learned that Otsutsuki Toneri might awaken the Tenseigan. Toneri awakened it on the moon and prepared to carry out the ancestors' will, making him a major threat to the Ninja World.

• A huge explosion sent dust across the battlefield, while Inoichi Yamanaka detected several powerful, non-Akatsuki Chakra signatures and identified them as reincarnated Kage-level experts.
• Inoichi Yamanaka warned the command center that the war was nearing its fiercest stage, while Soji waited for the Allied Forces' leaders to request his support.
• Otsutsuki Genji told Soji that the moon had moved and suspected Otsutsuki Toneri had awakened the Tenseigan.
• Soji ordered Otsutsuki Genji to watch the moon and report immediately if the Earth-Moon Passage opened.
• Otsutsuki Toneri opened his newly awakened Tenseigan, marveled at its power, and declared that it was time to carry out the ancestors' will.

Toneri decided to let the Fourth Ninja World War weaken the shinobi before he descended to reshape the Ninja World. In the Land of Wind, the Allied Forces faced six reanimated former Kage, who met their successors and old pupils.

• Toneri learned that the Fourth Ninja World War had begun and decided to wait until the shinobi had exhausted one another before acting.
• The Allied Forces watched six reanimated figures emerge from the dust and recognized them as the Third Raikage, Third Mizukage, Second Mizukage, Second Tsuchikage, Second Kazekage, and Third Kazekage.
• The Fourth Raikage and Killer B greeted the reanimated Third Raikage, who was pleased to see them again.
• Ōnoki faced his former teacher Mu, who questioned him about Iwagakure's succession and his back; Ōnoki changed the subject.
• Rasa greeted the Second Kazekage Shamon and Third Kazekage Setsugo, and Setsugo recognized Rasa as the Fourth Kazekage and mentioned Pakura.

Rasa told the former Kazekage about Sunagakure, while Mei Terumi clarified Kirigakure’s leadership to the two former Mizukage. Hozuki Gengetsu and Shimizugawa learned that Mei was only an assistant to the Fifth Mizukage, who was directing the Allied Forces from the command center.

• Rasa explained Sunagakure’s situation to Shamon and Setsugo, who urged him to protect Shukaku as Rasa worried over Gaara.
• Hozuki Gengetsu mistook Mei Terumi for Kirigakure’s Fourth Mizukage, while Shimizugawa wondered why he did not recognize her.
• Mei explained that Karatachi Yagura was the Fourth Mizukage and had resigned out of guilt, leaving Hozuki Gengetsu and Shimizugawa to assume she would succeed him.
• Mei clarified that she was the Fifth Mizukage’s assistant and that the Fifth Mizukage was commanding the Allied Forces from the command center.
