The chapter ended with Otsutsuki Kaguya traveling fifteen hundred years into the past as Tetsumaru stayed behind to anchor her return.

Aburame Tetsumaru investigated the structure of Chakra while Otsutsuki Kaguya traveled back over a thousand years to test whether she could bring a God Tree to the Original Timeline. After sleeping for more than five years, Kaguya encountered Gamamaru with the young Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura, just as Gamamaru was beginning to turn them against her.

• Gamamaru gained Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura's trust and began leading them onward, but then came face-to-face with Kaguya and cried out, "Rabbit Goddess!!"

A future Otsutsuki Kaguya arrived in the past, thwarted Gamamaru’s attack, and revealed her identity to Hagoromo and Hamura. The brothers remained wary after she claimed their mother was elsewhere and that she had come from twelve hundred years in the future.

• Gamamaru mistook Kaguya’s sudden appearance for proof that she had been watching its plans and attacked her with a Senjutsu-charged boulder.
• Kaguya split the boulder into cubes with her hair, caught one without being petrified, and trapped Gamamaru inside a wooden sphere.
• Gamamaru realized Kaguya’s Senjutsu power far exceeded its own and gave up struggling.
• Hagoromo drew Hamura’s short sword, used his Byakugan to identify Kaguya’s unfamiliar power, and concluded she was not their mother.
• Kaguya declared that she was Otsutsuki Kaguya, said their mother was beneath the God Tree, and revealed that she had come from twelve hundred years in the future.

Otsutsuki Kaguya from a thousand years in the future defeated Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura, then brought Gamamaru to confront her younger self beneath the God Tree. After explaining that she wanted the younger Kaguya and the God Tree, she prepared to force her to submit.

• Otsutsuki Kaguya told Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura she had come to obtain Otsutsuki Kaguya and the God Tree, revealing herself as their enemy.
• Otsutsuki Kaguya effortlessly defeated the two brothers and told Gamamaru she knew its role in the suffering she had endured after being sealed.
• Otsutsuki Kaguya dragged Gamamaru and the captive brothers to the God Tree, where she criticized the limits of White Zetsu made from ordinary humans.
• The Rabbit Goddess recognized the newcomer as her future self and learned that Hagoromo and Hamura would eventually seal her.
• The Rabbit Goddess discovered that her future self wanted to seize her and the God Tree, refused to submit, and Otsutsuki Kaguya declared that she would beat her into submission first.

Otsutsuki Kaguya fought the Rabbit Goddess while Hagoromo and Hamura evacuated the villagers and then left with Gamamaru to visit the toads’ secret realm. In the present, Aburame Tetsumaru and Torch Dragon discussed why Kaguya’s trip through time had not split the Timeline; back in the past, Kaguya shattered the Rabbit Goddess’s Truth-Seeking Orb and forced her to unleash God: Deep Forest Emergence.

• The Rabbit Goddess sent Hagoromo and Hamura away from the battle, and the brothers later helped the villagers flee the destruction around the God Tree.
• Hagoromo caught Gamamaru after it bounced toward him in a Wood Sphere, and Gamamaru broke free before persuading the brothers to visit the toads’ secret realm.
• Aburame Tetsumaru and Torch Dragon debated why Kaguya’s actions in the past had not caused the Timeline to split.
• Otsutsuki Kaguya overwhelmed the Rabbit Goddess’s attacks and explained that a dense, four-thousand-ton sphere could exceed a Truth-Seeking Orb’s devouring limit and destroy it.
• The Rabbit Goddess gathered her Chakra into the God Tree and activated God: Deep Forest Emergence.

Ōtsutsuki Kaguya overcame the Rabbit Goddess’s attacks, used her combat advantage to break her confidence, and began speaking with her. She explained that she had come to take the God Tree for a Timeline experiment and promised to compensate the Rabbit Goddess with another tree.

• The Rabbit Goddess’s Deep Forest Emergence failed to make the God Tree attack Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, revealing that the God Tree followed a higher control logic.
• The Rabbit Goddess avoided Amenominaka and tried to overwhelm Ōtsutsuki Kaguya with Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack and Rabbit Hair Needles, but Kaguya’s Mental Resistance Light dispersed the assault.
• Ōtsutsuki Kaguya absorbed the scattered Chakra, frightening the Rabbit Goddess and prompting her to ask how Kaguya had grown so powerful.
• Ōtsutsuki Kaguya recalled Aburame Tetsumaru’s advice that she needed a clear goal and had to make an opponent doubt their abilities and ideals before offering understanding.
• Ōtsutsuki Kaguya told the Rabbit Goddess that taking her God Tree was an experiment in bringing matter back from other Timelines and said she would provide a replacement.

Otsutsuki Kaguya united with her younger self, the Rabbit Goddess, and both broke through to a higher level before retreating into Amenominaka to recover. Months later, Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura discovered the corpses of people sacrificed to the God Tree, and the Rabbit Goddess confronted them.

• Otsutsuki Kaguya explained her plan for All-Self Unification, then joined with the Rabbit Goddess to begin the process.

• Otsutsuki Hamura found countless corpses in cocoons beneath the God Tree, and Gamamaru revealed that the Rabbit Goddess had slaughtered entire countries.
• Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura vowed to stop their mother, and the Rabbit Goddess appeared and called them ungrateful sons.

Otsutsuki Kaguya convinced the Rabbit Goddess to tell Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura the truth, then left with her and transformed the God Tree into the Ten-Tails. After abandoning her sons, Otsutsuki Kaguya searched Mount Myoboku for large toads and decided to raise them for food, while planning to seek out snakes in Ryūchi Cave.

• Otsutsuki Kaguya persuaded the Rabbit Goddess to explain the Otsutsuki Clan’s threat and her plans to Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura, then convinced her to leave them behind.
• Otsutsuki Kaguya transformed the God Tree into a gigantic Ten-Tails over the course of more than a month, then departed with the Rabbit Goddess as the villagers returned home.
• Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura found the God Tree and both Otsutsuki Kaguyas gone, and Otsutsuki Hagoromo resolved to lead the village without their mother.
• Otsutsuki Kaguya searched Mount Myoboku with an insect swarm, captured its toads, and learned from Gamamaru that the toads had stayed small to avoid being hunted.
• Otsutsuki Kaguya roasted toads, and the Rabbit Goddess found herself eating them before Otsutsuki Kaguya announced she would raise toads and seek snake meat in Ryūchi Cave.

Otsutsuki Kaguya took control of Ryūchi Cave, then joined the Rabbit Goddess on the moon to establish the beginnings of a new civilization with help from Aburame Tetsumaru. After the Rabbit Goddess left the human world, its fragile peace collapsed into war and exploitation.

• Gamamaru revealed the Natural Energy springhead beneath Mount Myoboku and led Otsutsuki Kaguya to it under threat to the frogs.
• Otsutsuki Kaguya told the Rabbit Goddess that she had taken over Ryūchi Cave and that the Earth-Moon Passage was nearly complete.
• The Rabbit Goddess completed the passage between Mount Myoboku and the moon, where Otsutsuki Kaguya created an Ultimate Producer Worker Drone and Aburame Tetsumaru's Shadow Clone supplied it with production data.
• Aburame Tetsumaru's Shadow Clone explained that Zenith Civilization could not safely be grafted onto the world's immature society, and the Ultimate Producer began growing a Mother Hive as Creep spread across the moon.
• After the Rabbit Goddess left, ambitious leaders plunged the human world into bloody conflict, seized people's harvests, and formed the first generation of nobility.

After leaving the world under Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura, the Rabbit Goddess watched order collapse as famine drove villagers and bandits into violence. Aburame Tetsumaru explained how the loss of the Rabbit Goddess’s centralized authority caused the chaos, then dismissed his Shadow Clone after completing the moon’s Mother Hive, leaving Otsutsuki Kaguya and the Rabbit Goddess free to celebrate.

• Otsutsuki Hagoromo refused to give the fifteenth wave of bandits more food, and the first two bandit leaders led over a thousand men to drive them away in a bloody fight.
• As the winter famine worsened, Otsutsuki Hagoromo began killing bandits to protect the village and grieved that he had killed more people than his mother.
• The Rabbit Goddess asked Aburame Tetsumaru why the world had fallen into chaos, and he explained that her rule had depended entirely on her personal authority and that its sudden removal left no new order in place.
• Aburame Tetsumaru told the Rabbit Goddess to wait for the chaos to subside and later use her reputation to help restore order through capable leaders.
• After the Mother Hive and its moon bases were completed, Aburame Tetsumaru dismissed his Shadow Clone to test whether its memories would cross the Timeline.
• Otsutsuki Kaguya and the Rabbit Goddess briefly mourned the Shadow Clone, then celebrated their freedom by planning a feast.

Aburame Tetsumaru discovered that Shadow Clones could return information across Timelines and tasked Torch Dragon with developing a communication system for Core Bearers. Meanwhile, the Zenith Civilization intercepted Otsutsuki Momoshiki and Kinshiki as they approached Six-String Star, where Momoshiki crashed into a prepared asteroid.

• Aburame Tetsumaru realized Shadow Clones could bring information back from other Timelines and asked Torch Dragon to develop a launch system for Core Bearers.
• Aburame Tetsumaru and Torch Dragon examined Eighth Master's rapidly advancing Timeline and planned to send Shadow Clones there to gather information and benefits.
• The Insect Swarm detected Otsutsuki Momoshiki and Kinshiki heading toward Six-String Star, and Aburame Tetsumaru ordered an interception.
• Ash Bone and Alchemy volunteered to recover the two Kamas while Eighth Master suspended the Planet Fortress project and deployed interception positions.
• Six built a vast hydrogen-and-dry-ice Deceleration Belt, but machine losses left it less than ninety percent complete when the Otsutsuki arrived.
• Otsutsuki Momoshiki and Kinshiki pierced the Deceleration Belt and slowed sharply in the dry-ice zone, until Momoshiki crashed headfirst into a prepared asteroid.

Otsutsuki Momoshiki fought through Zenith Civilization’s ambush while trying to reclaim Otsutsuki Kinshiki’s corpse and restore his Chakra. Ash Bone stole the Elixir and wounded Momoshiki with an All-Killing Ash Bone, leaving Momoshiki cornered as the insects and combat machines closed in.

• Otsutsuki Momoshiki survived the asteroid impact, then used Shinra Tensei to clear a path toward Otsutsuki Kinshiki’s corpse and destroy much of the surrounding force.
• The Advents realized Momoshiki was using time-based Freeze and identified his depleted Chakra as a weakness.
• Otsutsuki Momoshiki froze time, reached Kinshiki’s corpse, and began refining it into an Elixir.
• Ash Bone emerged from Kinshiki’s shadow and stabbed Momoshiki’s kidney with an All-Killing Ash Bone, then seized the Elixir.
• Momoshiki tried to mark Ash Bone with Kama, but Ash Bone escaped using the Substitution Technique, and the Ash Bone’s damage began spreading.
• With little Chakra left and the swarm closing in, Momoshiki faced certain death unless he could find a way to survive.

Otsutsuki Momoshiki sacrificed the Rinnegan in his left palm to regain strength, then fought Ash Bone and Zenith Civilization’s forces in space. After Gamma Ray attacks drove him from his asteroid, he faced Eighth Master, who prepared to show him why space was not the Otsutsuki Clan’s advantageous battlefield.

• Otsutsuki Momoshiki bit off and swallowed his left hand, using the Chakra gained from the Rinnegan to expel his disintegrating organs and regenerate, but permanently lost the eye.
• Otsutsuki Momoshiki reshaped part of the asteroid into a giant egg that hatched into force-wielding dragons, while Ash Bone fled with Shadow Clones to confuse him.
• Otsutsuki Momoshiki used Pheasant Hunt to burn the surrounding Insect Swarm and combat machines, but Eighth Master answered with a barrage from thirty thousand Gamma Bugs.
• Otsutsuki Momoshiki escaped through a spatial gate after the Gamma Ray bombardment vaporized the asteroid, and realized he was facing an expanding civilization.
• Eighth Master confronted Otsutsuki Momoshiki as the Otsutsuki prepared Crimson Spiral, and warned him that the Otsutsuki Clan’s advantage was not in space.

Eighth Master and the Knight Bugs killed Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki and secured his Kama after it broadcast warnings to the Otsutsuki Clan. Examining Momoshiki’s remains led Eighth Master to wonder whether the Otsutsuki were living beings or programs.

• Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki used Time Freeze to evade the Knight Bugs’ attacks, but hundreds more bugs surrounded him in space.
• Momoshiki triggered a second Time Freeze inside the first, creating a Chaos Zone that scattered the weapon rods before the attacks overwhelmed his spherical barrier.
• Momoshiki died after filling his Kama with Chakra, and the Kama broadcast the battle’s location and warnings to the Otsutsuki Clan.
• Ash Bone used a Clone Body to lure and seal Momoshiki’s Kama after it sent three waves of signals, while Eighth Master removed Momoshiki’s eyes and watched the rest of his body disintegrate.
• While working on the Planet Fortress, Eighth Master told Dragon Heart and Alchemy that he suspected the Otsutsuki might be programs rather than living beings.

Eighth Master's theory that the Otsutsuki are controlled by a virus embedded in the Kama prompted Aburame Tetsumaru to begin urgent research into a way to counter them. After receiving Otsutsuki Momoshiki's restart warning, Otsutsuki across the universe halted or slowed their advance, and Otsutsuki Kishiki gathered sixteen of them to urge them to unite.

• Eighth Master proposed that the Kama carried bodily information, memories, and emotions rather than an Otsutsuki soul, and that its influence was a virus overwriting its host.
• Cannon suggested building a laboratory in the fortress, but Aburame Tetsumaru soon arrived and took the two Kama-bearing Clone Bodies to study them.
• Grand Yang Fish told Aburame Tetsumaru to prioritize testing the theory, which could lead to a technique capable of undermining the Otsutsuki.
• Otsutsuki Ryushiki heard Otsutsuki Momoshiki's restart warning and decided to stop, resurrect his partner, and raise an army before continuing the Supreme Command.
• Otsutsuki from across the universe slowed or stopped their advance, and sixteen gathered together to discuss how to survive the powerful enemy.
• Otsutsuki Kishiki silenced the gathered clansmen and called on them to join forces against the enemy.

Otsutsuki Kishiki gathered the Otsutsuki clansmen and planned a fast route to their destination, but rejected a proposed stop in the Tree Herder Galaxy after showing them evidence of the Ancient Trees’ overwhelming power. The group set out on a different route, determined to gather Chakra quickly and keep pace with the Supreme Ruler.

• Otsutsuki Kishiki ordered the clansmen to stay within ten million kilometers of him and required the nearest three Otsutsuki to aid anyone under fierce attack.
• Otsutsuki Zetsushiki proposed gathering resources in the Tree Herder Galaxy, but Otsutsuki Kishiki warned that it was forbidden because the Tree Herders’ Ancient Trees were too powerful.
• Otsutsuki Kishiki showed footage of an Ancient Tree crushing a powerful Main Family clansman and another image of a lava monster overturning a planet’s crust.
• The Otsutsuki abandoned the idea of entering the Tree Herder Galaxy and agreed to build their legions while detouring around it.
• Otsutsuki Kishiki led the clansmen into space, and more than a dozen Otsutsuki followed in Streamers.

The Supreme Ruler awakened six Otsutsuki Kekkei Mōra after Otsutsuki Kaguya joined forces with a rapidly advancing civilization and two waves of Otsutsuki forces failed. The six learned that three of them had to reach the civilization within ten years to disrupt its development, but the Supreme Ruler warned that their lives would be at risk, leaving them eyeing one another warily.

• Otsutsuki Jishiki awakened in response to the Supreme Ruler’s signal, and the other five Otsutsuki Kekkei Mōra began forming on their thrones.
• Otsutsuki Shibai identified Otsutsuki Roku, Otsutsuki Shinten, Otsutsuki Senzō, Otsutsuki Tenjō, and Otsutsuki Ankō as the others, while Otsutsuki Shinten provoked his fellow Otsutsuki.
• Otsutsuki Shibai explained that Otsutsuki Kaguya had unexpectedly reached Kekkei Mōra, revealing a threat to the clan’s control over its power and rule.
• Otsutsuki Shibai reported that Otsutsuki Kaguya had joined an emerging civilization and that the first two waves of lower Otsutsuki had failed.
• The Supreme Ruler ordered three Kekkei Mōra to arrive within ten years and disrupt the civilization, warning that their lives could be in danger if it continued to grow.
• The six Otsutsuki Kekkei Mōra silently watched one another, each wary of being chosen for the mission.

• Otsutsuki Shinten, Otsutsuki Senzō, and Otsutsuki Shibai launched toward the Shinobi World aboard the Otsutsuki Clan’s platform vehicle and entered slumber for ten years.
• Namikaze Naruto and Second Pillar argued before entering Cosmos World, where they fought for hours and agreed to pursue new power after digesting the Sage of Six Paths’ power.

• Uchiha Sanae confirmed Naruto and Second Pillar had digested the Sage of Six Paths’ power, ending their surveillance.
• Grand Yang Fish told Otsutsuki Hagoromo that his hundred-year sentence was over.

After serving his century-long bodily imprisonment in accelerated time, Otsutsuki Hagoromo learned how much Zenith Civilization had grown and was invited to join it. He accepted, while his control of the Pure Land gave the civilization a way to find and cultivate exceptional souls.

• Grand Yang Fish released Otsutsuki Hagoromo from his Imprisonment Body after five years of accelerated rehabilitation, and his Chakra replenished in seconds.
• Otsutsuki Hagoromo discovered the moon’s unusually dense Chakra and learned from Ash Bone and Advent Shichinosuke that Zenith Civilization had hidden the Shinobi World behind a distortion of light.
• Ash Bone invited Otsutsuki Hagoromo to join Zenith Civilization, explaining that the civilization could manage the risks of his possible betrayal and had surpassed him in power.
• The chapter described how Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Sanae, Warhammer, and Teacher had advanced toward or reached power comparable to Kekkei Mōra, while Teacher continued merging with planets.
• Zenith Civilization recognized Otsutsuki Hagoromo’s Pure Land as a way to identify exceptional souls across civilizations and recruit them into a second life.
• Otsutsuki Hagoromo accepted Ash Bone’s invitation to join Zenith Civilization.

Otsutsuki Hagoromo met Zenith Civilization’s Advents as they reviewed their work, approved new projects, and welcomed Senju Tobirama through his cross-Timeline communication breakthrough. The meeting ended in shock when Orochihime announced that she was pregnant.

• Shichinosuke brought Otsutsuki Hagoromo into the Star Sea Hall, where the Advents’ strength and numbers forced him to bury his private thoughts more deeply.
• Paratrooper proposed using vacuum-powered road-building insects to extend the Space Grid between star systems, and Aburame Tetsumaru approved the plan.
• Senju Hashirama reported that Tobirama had completed the Shadow Communication Technique, and Aburame Tetsumaru agreed to grant Senju Tobirama Advent treatment.
• After the Advents spent two days reviewing projects and settling resource disputes through Dice’s throws, Orochihime announced that she was pregnant.
