The Five Great Nations’ daimyo convened a Supreme Council to address unrest caused by memories of a catastrophe from a previous life. Raikage A accused the Land of Fire and Sasuke Uchiha, and Kakashi defended Sasuke before A attacked him.

• Shixiu opened the council in the Land of Iron, where the daimyo described public panic, idleness, and brigand violence across their nations.

Kakashi defeated the Raikage and persuaded Fire Daimyo Shixiu to launch a nationwide search for children with ninja aptitude, hoping to prepare humanity for the gods Sasuke intended to challenge. The other daimyo reacted with outrage as Shixiu announced the policy at the summit.

• Kakashi cut through A's lightning cloak with Purple Electricity, and A abandoned his attempt to attack after realizing how badly he had been wounded.
• Kakashi reflected that Inari Ōkami, Hashirama, Mito, and Sasuke's Infinite Tsukuyomi had left him with an array of powers, and he resolved to grow strong enough to join the Ten Celestial Ninja.

Shixiu defended his proposal for the nations to work together and compete as they prepared for the approaching destruction, while the Daimyo questioned whether the dream was credible and feared public panic. Gaara urged them to tell the truth and unite everyone into a Steel Great Wall, ending with a plea for the leaders to become its founders.

• Shixiu told the four Daimyo that his proposal was meant to help ordinary people and invited the nations to work together, but the Water Daimyo threatened to join forces against him.
• The Wind Daimyo doubted the nations would go to war and reasoned that, if they opposed Shixiu's plan, they would have to compete alongside the Land of Fire.

• Mei Terumi backed Gaara’s proposal and urged the daimyos to unite and cultivate a “Celestial Ninja” before the deadline.
• The Water Daimyo warned that mobilizing the population could worsen despair, disrupt society, and leave ordinary people facing a god they could not fight.
• Mei Terumi argued that people had a right to know the truth and that leaders could not escape their duty to protect their nations.

At the Supreme Council, Nobunaga proposed the Ark Project: building a spaceship to take humanity to another world and avoid relying on the ninja to defeat Shi Mei. An unexpected visitor, Obito Uchiha, appeared and warned that no other habitable planets remained.

• Nobunaga raised the Daimyo’s concerns that powerful ninja might become a threat after defeating Shi Mei, and Ōnoki explained the risks.
• Gaara challenged Nobunaga’s suspicion of Sasuke Uchiha, but Nobunaga argued that Sasuke’s return was driven by obsession and that the Daimyo needed an independent fallback.
• Nobunaga proposed advancing Scientific Ninja Tool research to build a spaceship and called the plan the Ark Project.
• The council members praised the idea, but an unexpected voice announced that no habitable planets remained for ordinary civilians.
• Obito Uchiha appeared at the council and introduced himself as a failure free in both body and mind.

Obito Uchiha appeared before the Kage and Daimyo, where the Raikage attacked him and Kakashi argued that Obito had turned away from darkness. Mei Terumi then struck Obito with her acid technique, but Free Obito revealed that Tobi was taking the pain in his place.

• The Daimyo panicked at Obito's arrival, and Mifune's sword broke when he attacked Obito, who knocked him into a crater.
• A used a modified Lariat to smash Obito through a wall, but Obito evaded his follow-up attacks and left the Raikage unconscious.

Obito explained that he had activated the Infinite Tsukuyomi against Sasuke’s original plan and had come to clarify the truth to the Five Nations’ Daimyo. After demonstrating his Six Paths power, he opened the Supreme Council by inviting the Daimyo to decide for themselves, and Shixiu asked him to explain why no other planet could support human life.

Obito explained how the Ōtsutsuki used God Trees to drain worlds of energy, then revealed that King Tarune planned to devour the sun itself. The daimyo and Kage were left facing the danger behind the Ōtsutsuki’s history.

• Obito told the daimyo that Earth was the last world where humans could survive and pointed out that the sun was the source of life-giving chakra.
• Obito recounted how the Ōtsutsuki ancestor Taido created the Ten-Tails, whose God Tree produced natural energy and bore Chakra Fruits.
• Obito explained that the Ōtsutsuki planted God Trees across Takamagahara and other Planets, draining their energy and driving their inhabitants to extinction or flight.
• Kakashi recognized that the Ōtsutsuki’s expansion had unfolded across multiple periods, and Obito explained that their plundering stopped when the worlds’ energy was exhausted.
• The Lightning Daimyo guessed that the Ōtsutsuki then fought over their resources, and Obito said King Tarune emerged victorious and purged his rivals.
• Obito revealed that King Tarune’s next plan was to devour the sun itself.

Obito recounted how the Ōtsutsuki kings Tarune and Zhenruo failed to devour the sun, while Bore ultimately absorbed it and became the first supreme god. He revealed that Bore discovered nine suns in the universe, leaving the daimyo stunned.

• Obito explained that King Tarune died after trying to devour the sun, and that the sun’s core radiation could destroy an immortal body.
• Obito described how King Zhenruo used the Tenseigan to draw energy from the sun, then sacrificed himself to reignite it when its core began to collapse.
• Obito said the sun developed a trace of will after Zhenruo’s sacrifice and helped King Bore absorb it, making Bore the first supreme god.
• Obito revealed that Bore discovered there were nine suns in the universe.

Obito explained to the Supreme Council that Earth was the last habitable world beneath the final sun, and that the sage lineages had protected it from the God Tree. The leaders abandoned the Ark Project and unanimously committed their nations to training every citizen as a ninja, while a mysterious Ōtsutsuki opened a portal and sought Orochimaru.

• Kakashi and Gaara questioned Obito about the nine suns and the possibility of more gods, and Obito explained how the Ōtsutsuki divided into nine forces to consume the suns and pursue godhood.

• Jigen revealed that the Totsuka Blade had nearly destroyed his Vessel Casket, leaving his body with only ten days before it failed.
• Jigen grabbed Kabuto and threatened him into taking him to Orochimaru, but Kabuto petrified Jigen’s arm and used his left eye to cut it off.

• Obito assessed Jigen’s unleashed power from Blue Moon Island and told Tobi that he planned to beat him up.

Jigen searched Pale Moon for Orochimaru and found himself facing Obito, whose Kamui and immense power overturned his expectations. Obito unleashed a colossal Sage Art to destroy Jigen, who answered by revealing the full power of his broken body.

• Jigen used his Byakugan to locate Orochimaru and discovered that powerful ninja, including Hashirama Senju and the Five Kage, were gathered nearby.

• As the attack threatened to devastate the island, Jigen acknowledged Obito's power and unleashed the full presence of a god from his broken body.

Obito defeated Jigen in a clash of colossal weapons and rejected Isshiki’s offer to join Kara after deducing his plan to sacrifice him to the Ten-Tails. As Jigen’s body decayed, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki emerged, and Sasuke prepared to face him.

• Jigen used Sukunahikona and Daikokuten to shrink and store Obito’s Tailed Beast Bomb fists, then endured the remaining barrage by forming the Heavenly Pagoda.

• Isshiki declared that he would obtain his perfect Vessel before killing Obito, Orochimaru, and the others, but Obito said he had come to witness Isshiki’s death.

• Sasuke used Heavenly Strength to hold up two Great Gates of Heaven, then crushed the gates Isshiki dropped onto him with Yamato Takeru: Blade Reversal, borrowing Kabuto’s dōjutsu through his left eye.
• Kabuto realized Sasuke had used his eye technique in active mode and decided to return his left eye to Obito and seek his own path as a Celestial Ninja.

• Sasuke’s Kamui-enhanced bombs collided with Isshiki’s attack, unleashing a vast tide of Ten-Tails Kamui Spirals under the name Kamui: Divine Barrage.

Sasuke overwhelmed Isshiki with Yomotsu Hirasaka and nearly sealed him, but Isshiki tricked Sasuke into entering the Sealing Cauldron. The chapter ended with Sasuke sitting casually on the cauldron’s lid, leaving Isshiki stunned by his apparent escape.

• Isshiki tried to reach Orochimaru while the Kamui Spiral disrupted space, but Sasuke intercepted him with Yomotsu Hirasaka.
• Sasuke battered Isshiki with a chain of portal-assisted attacks and pinned him with the Gate of the Great God, but Isshiki shrank the gates and escaped under cover of black rods.

• Isshiki appeared behind Sasuke and transported them both to another dimension, where he sealed Sasuke inside the Sealing Cauldron.
• Isshiki celebrated removing his greatest obstacle, but Sasuke appeared unharmed atop the cauldron’s lid and questioned what Isshiki had seen.

Obito, Itachi, and Kabuto revealed that Sasuke possessed Ashubha, prompting Isshiki to lose hope as Sasuke battered him. Isshiki recalled his thousand-year plan and, after his Horn broke, realized Sasuke was avoiding a fatal blow and resolved to plant Kāma on him.

• Obito arrived beside the Sealing Cauldron and told Isshiki that Sasuke's Rinnegan held Ashubha, a time-leaping dōjutsu.
• Itachi and Kabuto arrived, and Itachi used Ame-no-Uzume to hear Isshiki's thoughts about Ashubha and the divine technique sequence Omotaru.

• Isshiki recalled his long-term plans, including restoring himself, cultivating a Ten-Tails, and obtaining a superior Chakra Fruit, as Sasuke repeatedly struck him.
• Sasuke's blows broke Isshiki's Horn, and Isshiki concluded that Sasuke was avoiding killing him so he could exploit that hesitation by planting Kāma on Sasuke.

Isshiki tricked Sasuke into accepting a Kāma mark by pretending to surrender, but Sasuke revealed the apparent target was a Wood Release Clone and that he had anticipated the scheme. Surrounded by Sasuke, Obito, Itachi, and Obito’s Limbo Shadows, Isshiki faced the end of his remaining options.

• Sasuke realized Isshiki’s remaining option was to implant white Kāma in Kabuto Yakushi, while the three Uchiha and Obito’s Limbo Shadows surrounded him.

Itachi, Obito, and Sasuke cornered Isshiki and forced him to flee by shrinking into the Sealing Cauldron with Kabuto. Isshiki died after imprinting a white kāma on Kabuto, but warned that their real enemy was Shi Mei.

• Obito used Kamui to reveal the cauldron's interior, where Isshiki had imprinted a white kāma on Kabuto.
• Isshiki told Sasuke that Shi Mei was the one they were trying to defy, then crumbled to death as the mark appeared on Kabuto's forehead.

Kabuto received the White Kāma and resolved to master Isshiki's power and fight Shi Mei alongside Sasuke. He returned Obito's father Ke's eye, and Obito fused its Blade Reversal with Kamui to awaken a new Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.

• Kabuto recognized the White Kāma as a source of Isshiki's latent power and vowed to master it before joining Sasuke against Shi Mei.
• Kabuto gave Obito his left eye, which contained Ke's Blade Reversal, and urged him to fuse it with Kamui.
• Obito remembered Ke's advice to cherish his comrades and recalled how his father died killing the Third Mizukage after disobeying orders.
• Obito implanted Ke's eye and used his Six Paths Power to speed up its fusion with Kamui.
• After fifteen minutes, Obito awakened a new pair of Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.

Obito awakened Divine Illumination, a dōjutsu that annihilated whatever he focused on, and tested its limits against Sasuke’s Chibaku Tensei. After discovering it could erase a sphere 250 meters in diameter, Sasuke wondered what would happen if its light covered the entire world like Infinite Tsukuyomi.

• Itachi sensed Obito’s newly awakened eye power and identified the ability as Divine Illumination.
• Obito used Divine Illumination to make Sasuke’s Truth-Seeking Orb vanish, then explained that the technique erased targets from existence.
• Sasuke created a rain of Chibaku Tensei so Obito could test the range and limits of his new ability.
• Obito annihilated the falling Heavenly Stars, discovering that Divine Illumination could erase a sphere 250 meters in diameter in one use.
