The figure of Tsunade is suspended on the surface of the moon.
The ground beneath her feet was gray-white rock formations, full of holes and cracks, like a forgotten world.
The distance between here and Konoha cannot be measured by distance.
She glanced back at the blue planet, then looked away.
Taking a step forward, a circle of gray dust was stirred up the moment he landed.
She looked around, and in the distance stood a building made of rock and unknown materials.
It has a square shape, like an ancient altar.
There was an extremely weak wave of Chakra with a faint ominous meaning.
"This is it."
Tsunade walked straight towards the building without hesitation.
The moon's gravity is only one-sixth that of Shinobi World, so every step she takes to the ground appears to be extremely light.
But the pressure felt like it was being hit hard on the rock formation.
There are no doors inside the building.
At the entrance is a passage blocked by some kind of magic.
The light patterns of the technique flowed on the wall, glowing with a lavender cold light.
Tsunade stopped for a step, raised his hand, condensed a little Six Paths Mode's Chakra on his fingertips, and gently touched the layer of the technique.
The technique shattered like thin ice.
The fragments silently turned into light dust in the air and disappeared.
She continued walking inside.
At the end of the passage is an empty stone room.
In the center of the stone room, a figure stood there.
It was a white-haired young man with a handsome face, wearing a white Otsutsuki-style robe.
His eyes were wrapped with a white bandage, and the eye sockets were empty, without eyes.
But his "eyes" fell precisely on Tsunade, as if he could still "see" her.
Otsutsuki Toneri.
"You're here."
His voice was calm, with an unreal neutral tone.
"But I won't let you go."
The moment he raised his hand, the entire stone room began to tremble.
An invisible force surged out of his body, trying to bounce Tsunade away.
But the force that hit Tsunade was like a wave hitting a rock, and her clothes Kakuzu couldn't even lift half of it.
"Is this your full strength?" Tsunade looked at him.
Toneri did not respond.
His body suddenly leaned forward, and a layer of white light glowed around him.
It's not Chakra, it's not a ninjutsu, it's more like some kind of residual power that remains in the body after losing the eyes.
His whole body turned into a white stream of light and rushed straight towards Tsunade.
Tsunade raised his hand, spread his fingers, and caught the white stream of light in front of him.
The explosive impact caused numerous cracks in the walls and ceiling of the stone chamber, and rubble fell like raindrops.
Tsunade didn't take a step back, didn't frown, and didn't even breathe randomly.
The white stream of light in her palm struggled for a few times, then gradually weakened and regrouped into the figure of Toneri.
He was held in her palm, like a cat pinched by the back of the neck, unable to move anymore.
"You are not strong enough."
Tsunade looked down at him, his voice calm.
"If you could stop me without eyes, I wouldn't stand here."
Toneri didn't struggle.
He was silent for a moment. "... What are you going to do?"
"Look for the seal of Kaguya."
Toneri's body shook slightly.
His pale lips moved, and finally he only left one sentence:
"If you see her... don't be soft-hearted."
Tsunade has no answer.
She retracted her hands, Hand Seals her hands, and a golden Sealing Jutsu pattern emerged from her palms and wrapped around Toneri's body.
Toneri made no resistance and allowed the technique to wrap him up and shrink him into a golden ball of light the size of a fist.
Tsunade took out a Sealing Scroll, sealed the light ball inside, and kept it close to the body.
He turned around and walked out of the stone room.
At the end of the passage is a huge stone door.
There are no words or patterns on the door, only a circular seal formation.
The light of that formation was deeper and more ancient than all previous spells.
It rotates slowly, as if it has been turning silently for a thousand years.
Tsunade stood in front of the door and looked at it quietly for a moment.
The Ten-Tails Chakra inside her body was resonating, like the magma buried deep in the ground feeling the tremor on the eve of an earthquake.
She could clearly sense that there was a power behind the door that had been imprisoned for thousands of years.
The power was cold and huge, like a dormant beast.
She clenched her right fist and Chakra converged along the meridians toward the edge of the fist.
The long silver-white hair began to flutter in the windless environment.
That was the vibration in the air caused when her own strength expanded to its limit.
Tsunade took a deep breath, and then punched out.
The fist hit the center of the circular sealing formation.
There was a moment of solidification in the air, as if even time was forcibly held down by that seal.
Then, the cracks began to spread from the position where she dropped her fist, spreading like a spider web to the entire sealing formation.
There were more and more cracks, and they became deeper and deeper, and finally there was a dull cracking sound.
The huge stone door collapsed together with the Sealing Jutsu pattern on the door.
Debris flew and smoke filled the sky.
Tsunade didn't stop.
The layers of Sealing Jutsu are like peeling wall skin, being penetrated by her layer by layer.
She threw seven punches in total.
All the power was poured into that seal.
When the last punch landed, the entire space in front of her seemed to let out a wail.
The earth trembled violently, and the rock formations of the moon cracked from beneath her feet, extending as far as the eye could see.
The seal is broken.
The Chakra that had been suppressed for thousands of years was like a flood that burst a dam, gushing out along the cracked gap.
Tsunade stood on the edge of the crack, his long silver-white hair flying back in the surging air.
Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan shines clearly in that pale light.
The moon was split in the middle.
Not broken, not disintegrated.
Rather, it is like a fruit that has been split with a knife, slowly and irreversibly splitting in half from where the seal is.
The cracks spread to both sides at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It runs through the entire moon surface and spreads to the back of the moon.
The two halves of the moon slowly separated under the influence of gravity, revealing a deep crack between each other.
It was like an eternal eye opened in the void.
Shinobi World, Konoha.
Jiraiya stood on the rooftop of Hokage Building, holding freshly brewed tea in his hand.
He looked up at the night sky, and his pupils suddenly shrank. "... the moon is cracked?"
The moon in his eyes split into two halves.
On the streets of Konoha, people stopped and looked at the sky.
Some people dropped their cups on the ground, some hugged their children tightly, and some opened their mouths and were speechless for a long time.
The night market stall owner forgot to shout, and the child next to him grabbed the corner of his mother's clothes and pointed at the sky, unable to make a sound.
The entire Shinobi World has been seen.
Two moons appeared in the sky.
They slowly separated in the darkness.
Like two split fruits, each hanging in two halves in the night sky.
On the moon.
Tsunade stood on the edge of the newly cracked rock formation, with a huge hollow in front of him.
Deep in the hollow, you can vaguely see a ball of light that has been sealed for thousands of years.
The light floats quietly, like a heart that has not yet awakened.
Otsutsuki·Kaguya.
