Chapter Summary: “To Be Alive Is To Be a Scourge”

Key Plot Points and Events

• After killing Otsutsuki Hagoromo, Shin receives no system reward, leaving him frustrated but not seriously concerned because he is already overwhelmingly powerful.
• One system mission remains: eliminate the Ten-Tails in exchange for a God-tier Copy Card.
