Chapter summary

Key events

The High Evolutionary attacks Peter and Rocket from inside a massive mecha, claiming control of Counter-Earth’s gravity has slowed them and that his machine is unaffected. He fires an annihilation cannon at Peter, but Peter summons six identical Rinnegan-wielding Sentries. Preta Path Sentry absorbs the beam, leaving the group and the ground unharmed. When the High Evolutionary tries to crush them with the mecha’s fist, Asura Path Sentry meets it head-on and forces the giant machine backward. The mecha’s thrusters only push him back slightly, and Asura Path Sentry’s strength begins crushing its supposedly near-indestructible plating. The High Evolutionary launches a missile barrage, which Asura Path Sentry counters with missiles fired from his own arm; the volleys explode together in midair.

Character developments and interactions

Peter is confident enough to treat the High Evolutionary as little threat, but chooses to let Rocket take the lead because of Rocket’s deep hatred for his former tormentor.

Rocket’s presence motivates Peter’s decision, though Rocket does not act directly in this excerpt.
