Toneri Admits His Mistake

On the moon.

The Toneri had been annihilated by the Moon Exterminator were captured alive by Kazashiro and his group and forcibly taken to the front of the ravaged tomb.

In front of the numerous empty tombs of his ancestors, Toneri successfully communicated with a Chakra left behind by them.

During the conversation, Toneri was "forced" to understand the true meaning of his ancestors' words and realize that Hamura's last words did not mean the destruction of the Shinobi World.

And so, in a peaceful atmosphere, the bruised and battered Toneri successfully reconciled with the beating group, and the atmosphere between the two sides became harmonious...

"Because of my mistake, the Shinobi World has suffered tremendous losses, and I have no face to face..."

Toneri began to repent in front of Kazashiro, but after a while he realized something was wrong.

Looking back on the whole incident, it seems I didn't do anything wrong.

It all started with this group of Shinobi World coming to the moon and digging up the tombs of our ancestors. Look, the excavated soil is still piled up in front of you.

He was furious, so he sent out puppets to teach them a lesson. But these guys were terrifyingly powerful; men, women, old, and young all charged at him like they were possessed. What could he do?

That red-haired guy was like a madwoman, Adamantine Sealing Chains "Aa...

Then that kind-looking old man came out wielding a big stick and yelled, "Ah~ I'll burn you to death!"

And that brat who just found out he was a boy, he didn't do anything, he just kept going "Ugh, ugh haha~" Five Elements Great Bullet.

Finally, with that Tailed Beast Bomb, "Yay!", it exploded.

So what exactly did I do wrong?

However, Toneri still read his confession without any emotion.

For him, whether or not he dug up the graves or got beaten up was no longer important; his priority was to get rid of these guys as quickly as possible.

See, the person whose grave was dug up didn't say anything, did they?

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.

After hearing Toneri's sincere repentance, Kazashiro was moved to tears and reached out to invite Toneri and the others to come and live in Konoha together.

Go to Konoha?

Even a dog wouldn't go!

Toneri was furious. He had already admitted his mistake, but these guys still wouldn't let him go. Were they trying to drive him to his death?!

However, one cannot use this reason to formally Toneri to a high position.

"I deeply regret my sins and am determined to atone for them on the moon. To show my sincerity, I am willing to destroy the passage connecting the Shinobi World and the moon."

Destroy?

That won't do; I'll have to send someone up here to investigate the ruins.

Kazashiro hurriedly grabbed Toneri's hand, afraid that the other person would break free and run away.

"Toneri, the Shinobi World is facing a serious crisis. The Ōtsutsuki is stirring up trouble, and Kaguya's will is also manipulating things behind the scenes. Hagoromo and Hamura worked hard to bring prosperity to the Shinobi World. As their descendant, you cannot stand idly by."

These words terrified the Toneri even more.

What the hell? You want me to fight a legitimate Ōtsutsuki?

Why don't you just let me fight my way back to the Ōtsutsuki's home base?

No, no, absolutely not.

Toneri tried to pull his hand away, but found that Kazashiro's grip was incredibly strong, giving him no chance to break free.

Just then, a Kunai across the sky and landed in front of Kushina.

Immediately afterwards, Yellow Flash appeared, accompanied by his signature line, Minato appeared stylishly before everyone. "Am I late?"

"Yes, it's quite late this time, but we've finished everything."

Seeing the reinforcements he had summoned, Kazashiro finally released his grip on Toneri's hand and asked Minato where the other reinforcements were.

Seeing this, Toneri was about to sneak away when he saw Hiruzen Sarutobi walk up to him with a large club and begin to ask about Hamura.

Damn, that transition was pretty good!

Toneri usually refined scholar almost swore.

However, he only dared to think about it in his heart.

"The others are still on their way, so I came ahead to provide support. I didn't expect you guys to have already resolved the situation."

Minato looked around curiously, especially at Toneri in front of him.

Is this the Ōtsutsuki? It looks quite... quite unique, huh? It doesn't even have eyeballs.

Seeing that Minato was observing Toneri, Kazashiro took the opportunity to introduce Toneri.

Upon learning that Minato was Kushina Uzumaki's husband, Toneri's expression changed from blank to one of deep admiration.

If he can marry such a fierce woman, this blond guy in front of me must be even more ferocious.

I must not be deceived by the other person's refined appearance.

"In short, you Toneri to leave, whether you like it or not. Hagoromo and Hamura are brothers, which means we are brothers too, right? How can brothers be separated?"

Kazashiro was still trying to persuade his Toneri to leave with him.

Whose brothers come up here and dig up graves, and then start hitting people?

In principle, Toneri does not want to leave the moon.

But the principles are now in Kazashiro's hands.

Ultimately, under the intimidation of the group, Toneri, with a long face, followed them on the road to the Shinobi World.

Kazashiro was very happy because he had finally "invited" the living Ōtsutsuki that he had promised Orochimaru.

With Toneri's assistance, Orochimaru will likely be able to develop a new technology to counter the Ōtsutsuki soon.

I'm feeling unwell and need to take one day off.
