There was silence in the conference room for a few seconds. Then, Guardian Zuo said, "We have officially entered a state of emergency. We are summoning all the people scattered in different planets and dimensions. At the same time, we are summoning those civilizations that have been conquered by us."
"All clan members - no matter royal family, nobles or common people - must face the enemy."
"Right Protector," Left Protector looked at her companion.
"Don't worry, I will try to wake up Master Shibai." The Right Protector said.
"Very well," she replied, "I will supervise the battle myself."
Guardian Zuo then looked at Ryushiki: "Try to find a way out for the survival of our clan Divination. In order to succeed, you can do whatever it takes."
Ryushiki was stunned for a moment, and then he understood the deep meaning behind this sentence. There are many members in the clan who have clairvoyance or Divination-like eye skills. However, no one is more powerful than him.
Therefore, under the current situation, the best choice is to increase his power by any means - including breaking the clan rules and devouring these people. Ryushiki nodded, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
However, as soon as he agreed, five people in the room suddenly tried to tear apart the space and escape. Unfortunately, Guardian Zuo moved very quickly and sealed them all with a wave of his hand.
As a result, two divine generals and three divine envoys were captured alive and handed over to Ryushiki to absorb to increase their strength.
"Let's go." Guardian Zuo said calmly and coldly.
In the boundless space, Ian watched countless Ōtsutsuki members flying out of the five planets. Most of them came from the yellow planet, where the members of the branch family lived.
"We have detected a huge fluctuation of space-time energy," Golem AD reported. "It is speculated that the enemy is calling for reinforcements. Commander, do you need to block the surrounding space?"
"No," Ian replied, "We just need them all gathered in one place. Otherwise, we will have to spend more manpower to hunt them down across the universe."
"As you wish. So, what are the next instructions?"
"Send Golem Legion to intercept the enemy."
Golem carried out the order and sent out a legion composed of one hundred thousand Golem: 10 of them were Seventh Tier peaks, 2,000 were ordinary Seventh Tiers, and the rest were all Sixth Tiers.
Golem Legion Carnage and captured countless Ōtsutsuki members. This battle was completely one-sided for only one reason: poor information.
Ian knows Chakra well, and he even equipped Golem with "Anti-Energy Enchantment", specifically used to deal with Chakra. Therefore, his legion not only has an advantage in advanced combat power, but also perfectly restrains Otsutsuki Clan in terms of attributes.
Of course, that's just the beginning of the battle.
"Interesting," Ian commented as he looked at the sudden changes on the battlefield.
"They suddenly became stronger," Tsunade said, "What happened?"
"They are using Natural Energy," Ian explained. "I really didn't expect Otsutsuki Clan to know how to learn from other civilizations." He always thought that these guys were too arrogant and did not bother to learn magic.
"Then what are you going to do?" she asked.
"The increase in their power will only delay their doomed defeat," Ian commented. "Deploy Ace Fighter Squadron to deal with the weaker branch members."
Golem AD executed the order. Countless small spaceships suddenly flew out from the five giant battleships. These spaceships were small enough to only accommodate two or three people, but their speeds were extremely alarming.
These fighter jets do not have pilots, but are remotely controlled by artificial intelligence under the supervision of Golem AD.
They accurately targeted those Ōtsutsuki branch members whose strength was lower than Sixth Tier.
In addition, Otsutsuki Clan also summoned a large number of other civilizations they conquered and used them as cannon fodder. Fighters also set these people as targets.
Ian watched calmly as the enemy's effective strength was greatly weakened. The fighter jets did not hesitate to use suicide tactics to destroy a large number of Ōtsutsuki members. After all, there were no casualties on our side, and the damage to the spacecraft was just a waste of resources.
"Commander, I detected an extremely strong Divination wave targeting Empire," Divination Golem said suddenly.
"Oh? How strong is it?"
"Prophet level."
"Prophet level," Ian mused, "There must be a member of the Otsutsuki Clan who possesses a powerful Divination eye-like technique." His eyes lit up.
"I'll give you a mission," he said. "Take a few shadow Golem and find the source of the Divination fluctuation: capture them alive and bring them back."
Ian feels that such a pair of powerful eyes are tailor-made for Luna. If he can copy them, he will no longer have to worry about his lack of Divination talent. At least, he will not encounter such an embarrassing situation again.
"Yes," Golem said and left. Taking advantage of the current chaos on the battlefield, it has become much easier to sneak into these five planets.
"Commander, the highest level of alert has been received," Golem AD said.
"Oh? What's going on?"
"I detected that a chakra energy of Eighth Tier is gathering on Imperial Family Planet."
"Oh, is Shibai finally showing up?"
"Most likely not. The energy frequency is more similar to a certain weapon," Golem AD explained. When a Eighth Tier mage launches a powerful attack, its energy frequency is completely different from that of a Eighth Tier weapon; the weapon lacks the vitality and vitality unique to flesh-and-blood life or other living creatures.
"Otsutsuki Clan also possesses many powerful chakra ninja tools, so this should be one of them," Ian commented. "Raise the highest level of shield. I don't want to lose any of these five spaceships." Losing any one of the spaceships is too expensive, and it is not cost-effective to suffer such a loss just for a mere Otsutsuki Clan.
"That's the problem," Golem AD explained. "According to my calculations, our shield cannot withstand an attack of this magnitude."
Ian thought for a moment. The Eighth Tier position means having the ability to destroy a star system. However, a person who can destroy 1 star system and a person who can destroy 100 star systems are both Eighth Tier positions, but the power of the latter obviously has an overwhelming advantage.
"Don't worry: I'll protect the ship."
Ian did exactly that. A powerful energy beam suddenly shot out from Imperial Family Planet, intending to completely Annihilation the five ships. So, he waved his hand and put up a powerful shield to protect his expensive investments.
"It failed," Guardian Zuo said after looking at the result of her attack. "So, Mastermind in this war, there really is a being as powerful as Lord Shibai? Who is it?"
No matter how much she thought, she could not guess the identity of the other party. Lord Shibai had already killed all the beings at the same level as him in this universe. And Otsutsuki Clan would ruthlessly kill anyone who had the potential to reach that level, which also led to them making countless enemies. Therefore, Guardian Zuo was unable to detect Mastermind in this attack because there were too many potential suspects.
"Is this the power of Divine Arts?" Ian murmured to himself. "Why does it feel weird and familiar at the same time?"
According to his understanding of <Boruto>, Shibai uses Divine Arts, which is the highest level jutsu in the universe. The jutsu used by ninjas is most likely just an imitation of Divine Arts. "Things are getting more and more interesting," he thought to himself.
"Commander, I have detected that the enemy has stopped emitting space energy," Golem AD said.
"So, they have recalled all the clan members?" Ian concluded. "Very good. Execute 'Bloodline Tactic'."
"As commanded."
All Golem Legion suddenly received the order to execute "Bloodline Tactic". So, they began to release a strange red mist to attack Otsutsuki Clan.
Wherever the fog passed, a member named Ōtsutsuki suddenly fainted and fell to the ground. Regardless of whether they were divine generals, divine envoys, or ordinary branch members, they all suffered the same fate without exception. The reason why the guardians on the left and right did not suffer was simply because they were not in the battlefield.
"What happened?" Tsunade asked in confusion, just like the people watching the live broadcast of the battle on Shinobi World Planet.
"This is how highly developed technological civilizations fight," Ian explained. "We identify the enemy's weaknesses and develop targeted countermeasures.
"Otsutsuki Clan achieves evolution by absorbing massive amounts of genetic information to break the limits of their bloodline. However, this information is too complex and confusing and will affect their minds.
"This fog is specifically created to detonate the chaos in their genes, thereby severely overloading their spirits and souls."
Ian sighed. Once a civilization's weaknesses are exposed, it can easily be targeted by a more powerful civilization. For example, one of Arcanist Civilization's biggest weaknesses is the heart that stores magic power. If someone can target this point, all Arcanist will lose their power instantly.
What Luck has is that he used the "Arcane Heart" he learned from "Demon Heart" and the ability to store magic power in Soul Dimension to fix this fatal flaw.
This is also the reason why Ian has always insisted on letting Empire use and develop different types of energy; he does not want that one day, a more advanced civilization will find a way to invalidate the magic power, leading to the collapse of the entire Arcanist Civilization.
This is also the reason why he requires Arcanists to have strong bodies; he does not want to have any weaknesses that can be easily exploited by the enemy.
"Is it over like this?" Tsunade asked in disbelief as he watched the arrogant Otsutsuki Clan fall down like children fighting with adults. "The enemy has been defeated?"
"No: there is still one last tough battle to fight," Ian replied, sensing that an extremely powerful existence was awakening.
