Sealed memories, life and power

More than a thousand years ago, the Sage of Six Paths Teuchi with Ōtsutsuki Hamura to defeat Otsutsuki Kaguya, and then used his immense chakra to unleash Six Paths Chibaku Tensei.

Attractive Force source is generated in space, attracting Otsutsuki Kaguya and a portion of the Earth along with it. This causes Kaguya to lose her power and rise continuously, moving away from Earth. As she grows, she attracts Meteorite from space to continue growing until she reaches a certain size before stopping.

This is the moon hanging high in the sky today!

A soul from another world, wandering in space, was drawn to the Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei Devastation and sealed away on the moon...

Standing on the earth, looking up at the starry sky, the moon, hanging high in the sky, is bright and beautiful, surrounded by stars.

But within this enchanting moon, all was dark and devoid of any light.

Everything seemed to have returned to its original state of chaos, mysterious and hazy, revealing a strange and terrifying aura.

"Who are you?"

And who are you?

Two distinct voices, appearing almost simultaneously, broke the deathly silence.

Through their blurred vision, the two could not make out each other's appearances, only vague outlines, but their voices could be heard clearly.

The otherworldly soul's consciousness was blurred; the power of the Chibaku Tensei had shattered his memories, leaving him in a dazed and confused state.

The question was merely a subconscious, spontaneous reaction.

As for Kaguya's question, the otherworldly soul was unable to answer it.

"You don't even remember who you are?" Kaguya couldn't help but curl her lips into a self-deprecating smile. It seemed there were people even more miserable than her.

Although she had lost her power and was sealed in this dark space, at least she still remembered her name.

Both of them were sealed inside the moon, not far apart... within reach.

Kaguya lost her great power, but merged with the Divine Tree and gained eternal life, destined to remain forever in this empty, dark world.

Of course, a thousand, ten thousand would be unwilling...

Should we place our hopes on Black Zetsu? Black Zetsu is merely the will she separated at the last moment using Yang Release.

Facing the powerful Hagoromo and Hamura, Black Zetsu no chance of winning.

After a long period of eye contact, Kaguya gradually calmed down in silence, her gaze coldly fixed on the otherworldly soul not far away.

Murmuring...

"Perhaps... this is an opportunity."

Taking a deep breath, Kaguya slowly raised her slender hand, her fingertips tracing an arc in front of her, drawing the floating souls from a short distance away to her eyes.

A simple action caused Kaguya to break out in a cold sweat and turn pale. Although she had lost the power of the Divine Tree, the power derived from life itself still remained.

"From this moment forward, you are Tōka, Ōtsutsuki Tōka." The final voice seemed to echo before fading away...

Time flies like an arrow, and life is fleeting.

A thousand years of accumulation, a thousand years of nurturing.

Kaguya created a body for Tōka, repaired Tōka shattered soul memories, and entrusted him with the most fundamental power of his bloodline.

As the Meteor Shower, Kaguya used celestial power to send Tōka to Earth, and then fell into a deep sleep.

A thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye, but the five syllables of Ōtsutsuki Tōka still echoed clearly in Tōka's ears as if from that very moment.

"A kind-hearted freshman?"

Tōka took the little girl's hand in his own, looked into her Pure White eyes, and two words suddenly came to mind.

Mirai...

Tōka's lips curled up slightly, revealing a kind smile. He then squatted down and stroked the little girl's head with one hand.

"From this moment on, you are the Mirai, Ōtsutsuki Mirai."

Little Mirai seemed to really like the name; her Pure White eyes curved like crescent moons, and she grinned with a satisfied smile.

Seeing the purest and most joyful smile, Tōka also revealed a smile without any ulterior motives.

Sudden!

A dull thud as something heavy fell shattered the beautiful scene.

Looking in the direction of the sound...

Uchiha Madara, now restored to his original form, landed heavily on the ground.

The Ten-Tails is Kaguya's true Original Body and the source of Mirai's rebirth. Mirai appeared beside Tōka, Uchiha Madara naturally lost the Ten-Tails within him.

Jinchūriki who loses their Tailed Beast is destined to die, and this was no exception for Uchiha Madara.

Tōka could clearly sense that Uchiha Madara's life was slipping away.

"Is her your target?" Uchiha Madara raised his eyes with difficulty and looked at Little Mirai standing next to Tōka.

"I suppose so." Tōka's eyes remained calm, his tone strangely even.

"Heh..." A cold laugh perfectly encapsulated the life of the Asura of the Ninja World. Looking again, Uchiha Madara had already closed his eyes tightly.

Although Uchiha Madara is dead, his body must be disposed of properly, and the Rinnegan also needs to be retrieved.

Tōka snapped his fingers, and a spinning Black Orbs appeared. He flicked it towards Uchiha Madara's corpse.

The moment it touched Uchiha Madara's body, the Black Orbs suddenly expanded and engulfed him.

"Brother, why does the moon in the sky have nine pimples?" the little girl asked softly, tilting her head and looking up at the sky.

Acne? Tōka's eye twitched.

"It's probably because he often stays up late." As he spoke, Tōka quickly Hand Seals.

Infinite Tsukuyomi - Release!

The Rinne Sharingan reflected on the moon gradually faded, and its bright, daylight-like radiance began to dim.

It was as if a huge black curtain had been spread out, obscuring the bright sky.

Night fell, and a bright, full moon hung high in the sky, pure and flawless.

"Wow, the pimples on Big Moon's face are gone!" Little Mirai exclaimed happily, her eyes sparkling.

"..."

"Brother is so amazing, it's like magic!"

"..."

"Brother's hands are so big and warm. Will they always hold my hand in the Mirai?"

"Um!"

Tōka held Xiao Mirai's little hand in one hand, and with the other hand, he drew a circle in the Void, and a black Vortex appeared in mid-air.

A mysterious Space-Time Power rippled outwards like water, and in the blink of an eye, Tōka and Xiao Mirai disappeared one after another into the dark Vortex.

The Land of Grass, a mysterious ruin covered by countless jungles.

"Where did Black Zetsu hide the Stone Tablet?" Tōka stood at the Palace Entrance, squinting as he surveyed his surroundings.

The mottled door was in a state of disrepair, and shade-loving vines climbed up the huge stone pillar.

The dense Forest blocked out most of the sunlight, making the forest resemble a dark, murky green deep sea, filled with an atmosphere of mystery and eeriness.

In order to make everyone believe that he, Ōtsutsuki Tōka, was merely a pawn in Uchiha Madara's hands, only hoping to see Kaguya once in his dreams.

Black Zetsu only altered the Stone Tablet left by the Sage of Six Paths at the Naka Shrine.

He even secretly hid the Stone Tablet at the Kaguya's Royal Palace and replaced it with a fake "truth".

Kaguya Ge has seen the Stone Tablet left by Tōka twice. The first time was when he evolved into the Tenseigan, but due to insufficient Dojutsu, he only saw the first half.

The second time was after Tōka obtained the Sharingan's Dojutsu and his eyes evolved into the Eternal Tenseigan.

Because the Sharingan and Byakugan Dojutsu were not perfectly fused, the Eternal Tenseigan was unstable, and at that time he only glanced at the second half of the Stone Tablet.

Tōka didn't look closely at the part about the Divine Attendant.

This time, Tōka brought Mirai to Kaguya's Kaguya's Royal Palace in the Land of Grass again, with the purpose of finding the part about the Divine Attendant on the Stone Tablet.

"Little Mirai, you..." Tōka opened her mouth, but the words she was about to say suddenly got stuck in her throat.

Mirai and Kaguya are the same person, yet not the same person. She is Kaguya's rebirth, washing away the colors that tainted the world, leaving only a pure white sheet of paper.

Tōka realized that what she wanted to know was something Xiao Mirai could never know.

Therefore, he hesitated to speak.

"Never mind, I'll look again." Tōka led Xiao Mirai deeper into the palace, intending to check the Underground Hidden Chamber first.

Start the search from where it disappeared.

Just as Tōka took a step, a rustling sound suddenly rang out. Tōka paused and turned her head to look at the swaying grass not far away.

"Senior Tōka's perception is still as sharp as ever!" A figure, completely shrouded in a wide robe, emerged from behind the bushes.

This is an unpleasant sound...

"Kabuto Yakushi." Tōka uttered three words expressionlessly.

Why is this guy here? Even though he has broken free of the Infinite Tsukuyomi and Kabuto Yakushi has regained his freedom.

But not long ago, this guy was on the Battlefield within the Land of Lightning. How could it be that Kabuto Yakushi arrived right after Tōka?

It would be more plausible if it were Minato Namikaze or Tobirama Senju using the Flying Thunder God to track down Tōka's aura.

"Senior Tōka, please don't look at me like that, it makes me very uncomfortable!" Kabuto Yakushi pulled down the brim of his wide hat and buried his head even deeper.

What does it feel like to Senjutsu?

Tōka raised an eyebrow. Compared to their previous meeting, he noticed a change in Kabuto Yakushi.

Senjutsu Chakra swirling around Kabuto Yakushi's body!

Upon further reflection, Tōka realized the crucial point— Kabuto Yakushi hadn't been affected by the Infinite Tsukuyomi!

"If Orochimaru knew that you evaded the Infinite Tsukuyomi's hypnosis with such a simple method, I wonder if he would be furious."

Tōka looked at Kabuto Yakushi with deep admiration. How many people have the courage to gouge out their own eyes?

In my memory, only Uchiha Madara, on his deathbed, personally gouged out his Rinnegan and entrusted it to Nagato.

Infinite Tsukuyomi is the ability of the Rinne Sharingan user to project their Dojutsu onto the moon, trapping all living beings in the world in Genjutsu.

Whether it's the ultimate Genjutsu, the profound secrets of Genjutsu, or the strongest Genjutsu, etc.

None of them can escape the rules of Genjutsu. Genjutsu must follow the five senses and use the five senses to lead the other party into an illusion.

Infinite Tsukuyomi is a large-scale Genjutsu with an extremely wide range, belonging to the visual Genjutsu.

Since it's a visual Genjutsu, wouldn't it be enough to simply block out the light from Infinite Tsukuyomi?

And that's exactly what Kabuto Yakushi did!

And it proved that his idea was correct!

"Heh heh, Lord Orochimaru would never do that." Kabuto Yakushi opened his empty eyes and laughed maniacally.

The inexplicable words were incomprehensible, but Tōka understood what Kabuto Yakushi was referring to.

Orochimaru was a contractor of Ryūchi Cave, one of the Three Great Sage Lands sites, but he was not recognized by the White Phosphorus Sage and did not learn the Senjutsu of Ryūchi Cave.

Unlike Kabuto, you cannot enter Sage Mode, where you can clearly perceive your surroundings even after losing your eyesight.

Since Kabuto Yakushi wasn't affected by the Infinite Tsukuyomi, his presence here makes sense.

Tōka had no idea what Kabuto Yakushi was doing at Land of Grass's Kaguya's Royal Palace in the Land of Grass during a lull in the great battle.

"What are you doing here?" Tōka stared at Kabuto Yakushi with a strange expression.

Kabuto Yakushi's irritating, sinister laugh stopped, and his hollow-faced eyes turned towards Tōka, his ferocious appearance utterly terrifying.

Little Mirai shrank back even more uncomfortably, hiding completely behind Tōka.

"Is Senior Tōka looking for this?" Kabuto Yakushi Hand Seals, and with a bang, a giant snake, several times thicker than a person, emerged from the smoke.

The giant snake opened its blood-red maw, revealing a section of Stone Tablet inscribed with strange characters.

Tōka immediately recognized it as the Stone Tablet left behind by Kaguya, which was exactly what he was looking for!

With a gulp, and after a look of confirmation flashed in Tōka's eyes, the giant snake suddenly closed its mouth and swallowed it whole.

Kabuto Yakushi snapped his fingers, and the Summoning Technique was dispelled.

The giant snake vanished from its spot with a bang.

"They're quite capable; they actually managed to find what Black Zetsu hid." Knowing the whereabouts of the Stone Tablet made things easier, and Tōka wasn't in a hurry to take action.

He knew that Kabuto Yakushi must have a purpose in bringing the Stone Tablet to see him, or more accurately, he wanted to get something from him.

A transaction is the exchange of something of equal value between two parties.

Kabuto Yakushi chuckled, neither denying nor acknowledging Tōka's praise.

"Just tell me what you want." Tōka didn't want to waste time with Kabuto Yakushi, because he didn't have much time.

The destruction of Momoshiki and Kinshiki's clones will definitely be sensed by their Original Body.

Perhaps in three years, perhaps in three months, perhaps at dawn, those two will appear and steal the fruit of the Divine Tree.

However, Kaguya had already eaten the fruit of the Divine Tree, and now it was split in two: Tōka represents power, Mirai represents life.

Therefore, obtaining the Stone Tablet was an urgent matter.

Upon hearing this, Kabuto Yakushi slightly curled the corners of his lips, revealing a smile that he had expected. "Tōka is certainly direct!"

"State your conditions before I change my mind!" Tōka narrowed his eyes dangerously. If he didn't not know where Ryūchi Cave was, he wouldn't have wasted his breath talking to Kabuto Yakushi!

A chilling aura suddenly surged forth, transforming into a monstrous storm that swept in all directions.

Rustling...

In an instant, the vast Forest began to shake violently and erratically, the swaying shadows of the Tree Shadow resembling menacing ghosts demanding lives!

The smile on the Kabuto Yakushi's lips gradually widened. Although he couldn't see it, he could clearly sense that Tōka was angry.

Or rather, Tōka was getting anxious...
