Beyond the heavens.
Urashiki, lying on the meteorite, opened his eyes.
"How's the intelligence gathering going, Urashiki?"
Momoshiki has the pale skin characteristic of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, long gray hair, and two forward-curving rabbit-ear-like hard horns on his head.
Wearing Noble- style Hagoromo, he's the kind of guy whose appearance alone evokes the word 'arrogance'.
He sat down in Kinshiki, an ordinary-looking big guy.
"Hey, Xiao Tao, Xiao Jin, you're here!"
Urashiki's way of addressing people was quite flippant, and he raised his hand in greeting.
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me the current situation of Isshiki and Kaguya." Momoshiki frowned slightly, looking at the blazing fireball in the sky.
They and Team Isshiki were a group of God Tree planting teams operating in the same direction.
Normally, they converge once every few hundred years.
They handed over the God Tree Fruit to the higher-ups of the Ōtsutsuki Clan.
Having lost contact for over a thousand years, they received orders from higher-ups to search for Isshiki and Kaguya.
Urashiki's Dōjutsu is extraordinary, and when it comes to intelligence gathering, he is the strongest among them.
His status within the Main Family was also the highest among them. He didn't bring any subordinates because he didn't have the task of planting the God Tree; exploring the universe was more like a journey.
Isshiki and Momoshiki belong to the martial arts faction of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, while Kaguya Kinshiki is more of a tool.
Urashiki remained silent for a moment.
"Hey... Xiaotao, I suggest we report this to that official."
"This world is too strange for us to handle."
Momoshiki eyes narrowed slightly. "Are you serious?"
Urashiki's Byakugan transforms into a red Six Tomoe Rinnegan, and the information he has gathered during this time is presented in the form of images.
It mainly started with the Shinobi World Martial Performance.
White Dragon Ascending Moon, Kagami Uchiha reinforces Kaguya's seal.
Finally, it launched Scarlet Sun into outer space.
It was because of this signal source that they were able to find their missing world so Isshiki.
"Mr. Isshiki... should have been killed by Kagami Uchiha a long time ago."
"His Black Eye appeared in the eye sockets of that ugly four-armed monster..." Urashiki with a sullen face. He cared a lot about the bond between his own kind.
The immortal Ōtsutsuki Clan was actually wiped out by the natives, which not only made them angry but also ashamed.
Because he saw all this, Urashiki didn't dare to make a move.
In terms of combat strength alone, Isshiki was one of the top fighters among them, yet he still fell...
More importantly...
Kagami Uchiha clearly knew of their existence and even proactively provided them with their location.
Just like fishing, they used the Shinobi World as bait to hunt down the Ōtsutsuki.
This world... has given birth to a terrifying monster.
After digesting the intelligence, Momoshiki Otsutsuki looked at the moon with a gloomy gaze.
"Kaguya... a disgrace to this clan."
"Let's unblock her first and learn more about the situation before making any further decisions."
"If we rashly inform that person, our abilities will be questioned."
Momoshiki glanced at Kinshiki; their understanding was so profound that no further explanation was needed.
Kinshiki's Byakugan emitted a strange fluctuation, carrying Momoshiki through space to the moon.
In contrast, Urashiki took a step back and entered a black spatial portal.
Yomotsu Hirasaka.
——
A black, circular diaphragm blocked the three people's view.
"This feeling... is based on the sealing ability developed from the Rinnegan."
Momoshiki placed one hand on the black membrane and turned to look at Urashiki.
"That Kagami Uchiha doesn't have the Rinnegan, does he?"
Urashiki shook his head. "I don't know, but according to the rumors circulating among the Shinobi World, this seal was made by a guy called the Sage of Six Paths."
"Hehe, this Sage of Six Paths is Kaguya's son."
"Son?"
Momoshiki's disgust deepened. "What on earth is going on? As a member of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, how could you give birth to a child in a world of such inferior beings!"
"Why don't we just ask?" Urashiki placed his hand on the black membrane, and black cubes appeared, opening the seal.
He was afraid of making a mistake if he acted alone, but with Momoshiki there, even if Kagami Uchiha was hiding inside and launching a sneak attack, they were confident of escaping.
In the dark, sealed space.
Kaguya Otsutsuki was pierced by six black spears, the spearheads of which were bright red and flickering with flames.
Kaguya, in the center, holds her heart in her hands, bows her head, and lets her hair fall down.
It seems to be in a deep sleep.
"What an ugly sight!"
Momoshiki snorted coldly and raised his hand, unleashing a chakra shockwave.
Boom!!
The torrent of chakra created a tremendous impact.
But...
Before even touching the black spear, it vanished without a trace, like a clay ox sinking into the sea!
Only the flickering flames rose a few degrees.
This situation... is like Momoshiki's chakra being absorbed and used as fuel for the sealing fire.
I tried the Momoshiki a few more times, but the result was still the same.
"Kagami Uchiha ... Shouldn't he be a descendant of Kaguya? Why can't we see through his power at all?"
Urashiki, carrying his fishing rod on his shoulder, said in a deep voice, "Who knows? This has never happened before."
Momoshiki 'Shikigami changed. "Let's give it a try, disregard Kaguya, and forcibly break this seal!"
Just as he was gathering his strength, Urashiki spoke up, "It's better not to. After all, she's from the same clan."
"There's another guy in the Shinobi World who has the Rinnegan. We can find him and ask him."
Momoshiki frowned. "Why go through all this trouble? Why not just go find that Kagami Uchiha?"
"How strong can a mere inferior creature possibly be?"
At this time.
Kinshiki had been silent all along, finally spoke.
"Momoshiki, I dare to suggest... that it would be better to act in accordance with Urashiki's ideas."
"Hearing the name Kagami Uchiha gives me a bad feeling."
"After all... Isshiki is missing, and Kaguya has been defeated."
"Tch, what a coward!"
"Let's do as you say and capture that guy with the Rinnegan first."

——
The Land of Rain.
Orochimaru, representing the Hidden Fire Village, Kakuzu, representing the Amegakure, and Cloud Shadow, the then-Kage of the Land of Lightning, Jiraiya.
Trilateral talks.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Kakuzu stated unequivocally. "Our Land of Rain has clearly dispatched 2,827 Chunin and above to participate in the construction of the Wind and Rain Grand Canal."
"According to the agreement, the canal's profits will be distributed according to labor, and we should receive at least 72.4%!"
"A 50/50 chance, Orochimaru, do you think this is black market haggling? You have absolutely no professionalism!"
Orochimaru waited until Kakuzu finished speaking.
He said calmly, "There are only a few hundred Chunin registered in the Land of Rain."
"I don't want to dwell on this issue anymore, Kakuzu, and don't be too greedy."
"I'm greedy?" Kakuzu slammed his fist on the table in a fit of rage.
"What nonsense are you spouting!"
"To be honest, it is our water resources that nourish the Land of Wind. You are not only ungrateful, but you also want to share the canal's profits with Lord Rain Shadow!"
"Let the war begin, Orochimaru!"
Seeing Kakuzu getting more and more agitated, Jiraiya grabbed his arm and advised, "Kakuzu- san, don't get agitated. You're so old, don't hurt yourself with all that stress."
Orochimaru sipped his tea, not caring much about such things.
Suddenly...
His dark golden pupils suddenly contracted, and he looked up at the Sky Manipulation.
Inside the opened, dark hole.
Three figures slowly stepped out.
The oppressive force of the life-level power crashed down like a giant mountain!
