His body trembled despite himself.
The losses were too great!
This time, Konoha had lost at least several hundred elite ninja. Some clans had even been wiped out entirely. Losses like these were enough to cripple the village. If he could have saved them, he would have done so without hesitation.
But the SCP Foundation was too powerful.
It had sealed every supernatural power in the Ninja World from the outset. Faced with such a feat, Hiruzen Sarutobi could not muster the slightest will to resist.
He could only watch as the SCP Foundation swept away the very pillars of Konoha Village.
At last, he raised his pipe to his lips with a trembling hand.
As smoke curled around him, tears streamed down his aged face.
And it was not just Konoha Village! All Five Great Ninja Villages had suffered heavy losses. The Five Kage had repeatedly ordered everyone to stay out of the Demon Slayer World.
But some ninja thought themselves exceptional and saw an opportunity there.
Banking on their luck, they had slipped into the Demon Slayer World to explore. They had not only gotten themselves killed; their clans had also been held responsible.
And beyond the five great villages, the SCP Foundation had uprooted some smaller factions altogether.
By incomplete estimates, nearly two thousand ninja had been captured in this reckoning.
It had torn a hole through an entire generation of the Ninja World's ninja!
Everyone in the livestream chat fell silent at the sight.
They had known the SCP Foundation's reckoning would deal the Ninja World a heavy blow. They had not expected it to be this devastating.
Thousands of ninja were gone, and some clans had been wiped out to the last member.
Some Kekkei Genkai had vanished from the Ninja World entirely.
Wasn't that going too far?
After seeing the devastation, everyone silently swore never to defy the SCP Foundation. Otherwise, they would not be the only ones finished.
Their clanspeople would be held responsible too.
But just as everyone made that vow, the next scene left them dumbfounded.
A warrior in silver-white armor walked up to Black Zetsu, who was sealed inside a beam of white light. "Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Ye, commander-in-chief of the Fleet."
"After consulting Heavenly Principle Information, we learned that you are merely a product of the will of a powerful being named Kaguya Ōtsutsuki."
Ye paused, then continued. "Under the relevant regulations, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki is therefore also subject to our reckoning."
"So we will use Simulated Power to release Kaguya Ōtsutsuki from her seal!"
Black Zetsu grew visibly agitated at Ye's words.
He tried to argue.
But no matter how hard he struggled, the white beam's seal would not let him make a sound.
He could only watch helplessly as the White Emperor Battleship headed straight for the moon.
Nearby, the withered Madara Uchiha stared at Black Zetsu in shock.
His eyes were full of horror.
What?
Black Zetsu was a product of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's will?
This...
And that battleship commander who called himself Ye said he would simulate Chakra to release Kaguya Ōtsutsuki?
That was absurd!
Utterly absurd!
In that moment, Madara Uchiha's entire understanding of the world crumbled.
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's Breaking Point: Was She Destined to Be Undone by Her Sons?
(Second update. Please subscribe! Your support keeps me writing. Something held me up; the next update will be around ten!)
The SCP Foundation's sheer audacity left the livestream viewers questioning everything they knew.
You thought they would fight you?
Instead, the SCP Foundation sealed away every supernatural power in the entire world, turning all its ninja into ordinary people!
You thought they would investigate and gather evidence?
Instead, the SCP Foundation used the Heavenly Principle Will to pull up your entire life, from birth to the present.
No matter how you tried to distance yourself from the affair, there was no escaping it.
They gave you no chance to resist or talk your way out. Their methods defied belief!
What did it mean to fight on a whole different level?
This was it!
[Sengoku: I knew the SCP Foundation was powerful, but I never imagined it was this powerful!]
[Kaido: I wonder if they'll seal away all supernatural powers when they come to settle accounts in our world. Would that mean we couldn't use our Devil Fruit powers or Haki?]
[Vegapunk: An organization with limitless technological possibilities. Their greatest weapon is the rules themselves.]
[That's the direction scientific development should take!]
[I had been looking at the world through a keyhole.]
[Orochimaru: @Vegapunk, that's what I think too. I've already sent the SCP Foundation a private message asking to join them. I'd even settle for assisting with research on the Flesh Heavenly Principle Orb.]
[But they still haven't replied.]
[Sigh!]
[I suppose they don't want me. If I'd known, I would have sent people to explore the Demon Slayer World too.]
[Child Emperor: I'm curious. If the SCP Foundation sealed away the supernatural powers in our world, would the monsters revert to humans?]
[@Monster King Orochi, I'd really like to know!]
[Monster King Orochi: Impossible! We monsters are a superior species. We would never revert!]
[Genos: I wonder if my teacher's power could be sealed?]
[Miko: Would the Evil Spirits disappear?]
[Aizen: Perhaps. So the end point of science is rules. Might the end point of supernatural power be rules as well? Perhaps that is what it means when they say all paths lead to the same source.]
[Momo Hinamori: Captain, the things you say keep getting more profound. I can barely follow you!]
[Zhang Liang: @Momo Hinamori, I gave Aizen some texts from the Hundred Schools of Thought.]
[Fusu: @Zhang Liang! Sir, what you've done is dangerous!]
[Zhang Liang: @Fusu! Has Ying Zheng decided to pass the throne to you? Otherwise, he wouldn't have let you speak in the livestream chat!]
[Fusu: He has!]

While the livestream viewers reeled from the SCP Foundation's astonishing methods, Ye had already brought the White Emperor Battleship near the moon...
Then, before the livestream viewers' stunned eyes, he began the process of releasing Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.
"Activate the Supernatural Simulator!"
At Ye's command, the phantom of an Obelisk about the size of a ruler appeared before the White Emperor Battleship. The livestream viewers froze when they saw it...
They were stunned for a moment, then immediately thought of the two-thousand-kilometer Obelisk that had appeared in the video of SCP-096 Shy Guy interacting with SCP-343 God.
This couldn't be the Obelisk itself!
It was only a projection.
[Simulating the creation of a human body from the Ninja World... Collecting genetic data... Genetic data collected... Creating... Please wait!]
[Creation successful!]
As the mechanical announcement rang through the livestream, a human-shaped figure gradually formed before the Obelisk's projection. Within the blink of an eye...
Its outline began to solidify.
The phantom became a person of flesh and blood.
[Simulating Indra's chakra... Simulation successful... Injecting into simulated body... Injection successful... Integrating... Integration successful!]
As the mechanical announcement sounded, the simulated body hovering before the Obelisk began to change. Its black-and-white eyes...
Turned blood-red, and a comma-shaped tomoe gradually appeared in each iris.
It was a One-Tomoe Sharingan.
Before the stunned livestream viewers—especially those from the Ninja World—the One-Tomoe Sharingan began to advance.
In the blink of an eye, it became the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan!
[Simulating Asura's chakra... Simulation successful... Attempting injection into simulated body... Injection successful... Integrating... Integration successful!]
As the mechanical announcement sounded, the simulated body's Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan transformed directly into the Rinnegan!
"That's impossible!"
Madara Uchiha's aged face filled with shock. He stared at the simulated body floating in the air and said in a trembling voice:
"That's the Rinnegan!"
"Even the Foundation can't simulate it that easily, no matter how powerful they are!"
"It has to be fake!"
While Madara Uchiha was still reeling, the mechanical voice sounded again: [Simulating the chakra of the Nine Tailed Beasts... Simulating... Simulation successful... Creating nine simulated Tailed Beasts... Creation successful!]
With the mechanical announcement, the Ninja World's Nine Tailed Beasts appeared in midair!
[Simulating the Outer Path... Simulating... Simulation successful... Creating a simulated Outer Path... Creation successful!]
[Attempting to inject the nine simulated Tailed Beasts into the simulated Outer Path... Attempting... Attempt successful... Simulated Ten-Tails created.]
At the cold mechanical announcement, a huge, fearsome Tailed Beast appeared before everyone. Its ten thick tails lashed through the air...
The beast was so vast that even the White Emperor Battleship looked small beside it.
This beast was none other than the legendary Ten-Tails, said to be subdued only by the Sage of Six Paths!
"Ha ha ha... All those years of planning!"
In Amegakure, Pain watched the Ten-Tails on the livestream and said with a bitter laugh, "The Foundation only had to lift a finger!"
"What a joke!"
[Attempting to fuse the simulated Ten-Tails with the simulated body to create a Ten-Tails Jinchūriki... Attempting... Attempt successful. Simulated Ten-Tails Jinchūriki created!]
At the mechanical announcement, a Divine Robe made of chakra appeared on the simulated body, and wave after wave of violent power swept outward...
Standing in the Konoha office, Hiruzen Sarutobi puffed on his pipe and said shakily, "Three minutes. That's all it took to create a Sage of Six Paths!"
"The Foundation's power is beyond measure!"
[Simulating Black Zetsu's consciousness... Simulating... Simulation successful... Simulated Black Zetsu consciousness created.]
[Injecting the simulated Black Zetsu consciousness into the Ten-Tails Jinchūriki... Injection successful! Attempting to release Kaguya Ōtsutsuki from her seal... Release successful!]
At the mechanical announcement, a beautiful woman with delicate features appeared. She wore white robes patterned with black tomoe, had two horns on her head, Byakugan eyes, and a Rinne Sharingan on her forehead.
She emerged from within the simulated Ten-Tails Jinchūriki.
When she realized she was in space, with an unfamiliar silver-white battleship before her, confusion filled her pale eyes. ...
Just then, a beam of white light shot from the White Emperor Battleship, enveloped Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, and pulled her inside.
"Mother!"
