Liao Wu nodded. "Of course! Unfortunately, if it weren't for Ōtsutsuki Hamura, I'd already be using the moon to control the Whole Ninja World!"
Liao Wu had briefly suspected that Hamura's descendants on the moon had used the Giant Tenseigan to sever his connection to it.
But on further thought, the Giant Tenseigan wasn't omnipotent. Hamura's descendants could only use it for destruction.
Otherwise, when Madara cast Infinite Tsukuyomi, Toneri could have used the Giant Tenseigan to sever the connection between the caster and the moon.
Liao Wu thought Hamura himself had most likely intervened. Back then, the Sage of Six Paths and Hamura had sealed Kaguya Ōtsutsuki together.
Hamura was also at the Six Paths Level. His physical body could die, just like the Sage of Six Paths', but perhaps his soul could likewise remain conscious in the Pure Land.
He could interfere with the world of the living, too!

This incident also made Liao Wu understand that some things were off-limits, such as flipping the table.
Using Yachihoko to cast Marking Tsukuyomi through the moon and control the Whole Ninja World was tantamount to flipping the table, leaving no one else able to play.
Even if Hamura hadn't intervened, the Sage of Six Paths would have.
As for the notion that the dead shouldn't interfere with the living, to someone like the Sage of Six Paths, death was merely another state of existence.
Until he had the power to overturn the entire table, Liao Wu would follow the Sage of Six Paths' rules and find himself some territory—the equivalent of securing a seat at the table.
He would play along by the rules.
Konan looked at the Yachihoko Mark on her belly and understood. "So anyone branded with this mark falls under your control?"
