"Everyone..."
Xuanhui's voice rang out through the boundless darkness.
As those trapped deep in the genjutsu heard his voice, the gray emptiness faded from their eyes.
They opened their eyes and discovered that everyone had gathered within this vast mental space.
Then someone looked up.
Xuanhui stood above them all.
Using genjutsu, he projected himself clearly into everyone's field of vision.
Once they saw Xuanhui clearly, memories of being trapped in the Infinite Tsukuyomi began flooding back.
The Jinchūriki raised their heads, confident smiles on their faces.
Karatachi Yagura's smile was especially radiant!
"Big Brother Xuanhui, you did it!"
Only then did everyone realize they were inside a mental world.

Xuanhui's words drew everyone's attention, but his last sentence left them baffled.
"Not... from this world?"
"Everyone, words alone won't help. What I'm about to show you is the whole truth.
Whether you believe it... is entirely up to you!"
The next moment, Xuanhui's body dissolved into specks of light.
The darkness around them began changing rapidly!
An instant later, an image appeared before each of them.
It showed Kaguya Ōtsutsuki and Isshiki traveling through Yomotsu Hirasaka on their way to Earth.
"Kaguya... remember your mission..."
Starting with that scene, Kaguya began telling the story of the Ōtsutsuki Clan...
Then everyone's view shifted to Earth.
From an all-seeing perspective,
