He left without finding any unusual energy in the mineral veins or discovering how to develop the orb.

• Katsuo visited the Land of Iron and Kumogakure, found no sign of the remnants he sought, and waited on a mountain in the Land of Lightning for nightfall.

• Katsuo realized the Primordial God Tree could overpower the clan and gave up his plan to go challenge the Otsutsuki directly.

Katsuo questioned Kaguya Otsutsuki about the Primordial God Tree, the Chakra Fruits, and her betrayal, then refused to release her until he had prepared. Kaguya trusted his promise to save her, while Katsuo privately intended to keep her confined for now.

• Kaguya Otsutsuki explained that the Primordial God Tree could not be sealed and that the Otsutsuki God had ascended by eating its Transcendence Fruit.

• Katsuo placed more Dao Ball rings around Number Ten’s tails to extract the Ten-Tails’s power and keep the beast under control.

• Kaguya Otsutsuki explained that Blood Karma’s eruptions summoned increasingly powerful Otsutsuki avengers, with Kōshiki Otsutsuki obligated to act if the final eruption occurred.
