Though it was a teasing remark, Shinji's words were true. If Kaguya Otsutsuki didn't possess the power of a Kekkei Sōra, she certainly wouldn't have been so easygoing.
Successfully recruiting a Kekkei Mōra had also given Shinji a little more leeway with his available forces.

With the Six Rings World's "magic barrier" as a ready-made example, the Shinobi World's Bulwark Plan had a clear model to follow. And since the plan was being drawn up by the Shinobi World's finest, after several days of repeated discussions, the Bulwark Plan began to take shape.
At the meeting, Amado pointed to a screen. "Our current proposal is to take inspiration from the Six Rings World's 'magic barrier' and establish nine key nodes across the Shinobi World. Using these nine nodes as support, we'll reinforce the entire world."

They need to strengthen the spatial barriers, but also reinforce the continental plates. If we only set up six, the strain on each node would be far too great."
Sasuke muttered, "I see!"
Amado continued, "Later, we'll develop a barrier that can cover the entire Shinobi World. These nine nodes will support it, so each one will need
