Uchiha Madara defeated the Ninja Allied Forces but delayed pursuing them into the otherworld while he investigated the power behind Sasuke’s escape. In the otherworld, the displaced shinobi learned that finding Naruto might help them defeat Madara, while their dwindling Chakra and the Raikage’s true intentions raised new questions.
Darui explained that the five Kage favored friendly exchange with the other world, while Hawk Eyes confronted the newcomers over his injured pets and occupied castle. A surprise attack destroyed his home, and Hawk Eyes answered with a slash that split the island, leaving both sides wary of each other’s strength.
Sasuke and Hawk Eyes fought until Hashirama stopped them, then a fleet from the United Government arrived with Garp and Kizaru. Uchiha Madara summoned a meteorite, which Kizaru and Garp destroyed, leaving the assembled ninjas stunned by the strength of this world’s fighters.
Garp, Kizaru, and the Ninja Allied Forces battled Uchiha Madara and the reanimated ninjas, but many enemies escaped before the groups agreed to travel together to find the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails. Otsutsuki Urashiki and Otsutsuki Kinshiki secretly followed them, while a mechanical Den Den Mushi watched from space.
Longinus planned to capture both the Ten-Tails and Kaguya Otsutsuki, deciding to reveal some of his strength in a controlled way. Meanwhile, Garp’s visitors learned more about the Sea Kings before the warship reached Spring Queen City, where Garp planned to buy Rainbow Senbei for his supposed friend Sengoku.
Garp left the ship to explore, while the shinobi worried that the marines were underestimating the Ten-Tails threat. A rebel disguised as Akatsuchi attacked Kizaru, but Kizaru survived and killed him; afterward, Bamund guided the shinobi through Spring Queen City and praised the United Government and the mysterious man who had changed his beliefs.
Bamund told Kakashi and the others about Longinus’s heroic reputation and the ancient struggle against a god who ruled the world. The group learned that Longinus ultimately defeated the god at the cost of his life.
Bamund showed Kakashi and the others footage of Longinus fighting a devastating battle against God, while Urashiki and Kinshiki watched and reassessed their plans. At the port, Lone Redfield defeated Sasuke in one strike, leaving Sasuke to learn how vast the gap was between him and the old powerhouses.
Redfield defeated Urashiki and Kinshiki, then agreed to help them target the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails while exploiting the government’s blind spots. Uchiha Madara learned of the plan and decided to draw the government’s attention himself during the operation.
Naruto and Killer B discovered that Uchiha Madara had taken control of the Ninja Allied Forces and was attacking Sabaody Archipelago. Three Marines confronted Madara’s forces, and the chapter ended with Fujitora revealing that he had accidentally thrown Madara’s summoned meteors back into space.
Uchiha Madara tested the Navy officers’ abilities while using reanimated shinobi and a Truth-Seeking Orb to attack them. Akainu survived the orb by scattering into magma, but it left him bald as the battle continued.
Uchiha Madara used White Zetsu clones to force Aokiji and the others to abandon the fight and protect civilians, then trapped Naruto and Killer B in a powerful Planetary Devastation. As he tried to escape with them behind a Truth-Seeking Orb barrier, an unknown figure shattered the barrier with one punch and slammed him into the ground.
Longinus defeated Uchiha Madara’s forces and knocked out the White Zetsu across the archipelago, leaving Madara to rethink his plans. Meanwhile, Urashiki absorbed Kinshiki to gain power, intending to rescue Momoshiki.
Longinus sparred with Might Guy aboard the warship and gauged the power of his Seven Gates technique. The exchange left Longinus unharmed, gave him a basis for estimating Uchiha Madara’s strength, and inspired him to consider a way Kaguya might deal with him.
Naruto and Sasuke debated how Lord Longinus had changed the world before an attacker named Urashiki ambushed them at Marineford. Urashiki sent Sasuke into another dimension and nearly defeated Naruto, until Vegapunk appeared and identified himself as the government's strongest weapon.
Vegapunk disrupted Urashiki’s movements and destabilized his Chakra, leaving him cornered as Sasuke returned. At Marineford, Uchiha Madara attacked the assembled fighters, but Akainu countered with a magma fist that destroyed half of Madara’s body and sent him into the sea.
Akainu and Uchiha Madara resumed their battle as the gathered forces struggled to stop Madara’s meteors and attacks. When Madara trapped the battlefield in a shrinking barrier and prepared a devastating blast, Akainu called down the Star Crusher Cannon, which engulfed Madara and tore through the sea and earth.
Uchiha Madara survived Longinus’s devastating attack and summoned legendary pirates and former World Government leaders with Reanimation Jutsu. As the resurrected fighters learned how much the world had changed, Whitebeard unleashed a tsunami, Golden Lion raised floating islands, and a dragon appeared above the battlefield.
Uchiha Madara infiltrated the central building and repeatedly attacked the sleeping Longinus, but could not harm him. As the others arrived and saw Madara’s futile assault, Longinus woke and declared that he had foreseen Madara’s destruction and the destruction of his world.
Longinus defeated Uchiha Madara’s attempt to escape and revealed that Madara’s pursuit of the Infinite Tsukuyomi was part of a lie meant to prepare the way for a powerful being. Madara learned that Black Zetsu had been manipulating him, but resolved to carry out the Infinite Tsukuyomi anyway.
Uchiha Madara’s Infinite Tsukuyomi released Princess Kaguya, who learned that powerful beings threatened her and set out to reclaim her power in another world. At Marineford, Longinus agreed to become the vessel for Kaguya after the assembled ninja concluded that only he could safely contain her.
Hashirama Senju resolved that Konoha’s ideals could survive even if its village form changed, while Tobirama Senju struggled to accept his brother’s plan. An enormous allied force confronted Kaguya Otsutsuki, and Longinus overwhelmed her before ordering a full-scale attack on her transformed form.
Longinus defeated Kaguya Otsutsuki with help from the assembled fighters, then absorbed her sealed will and gained the power he had been seeking. He looked toward the stars and prepared to begin a new expedition.
