Chinatsu sacrificed Otsutsuki Maishiki, Shishiki, and Reishiki to transform the Shinobi World, directing most of the resulting power toward improving its environment. As the changes sparked unrest, Naruto and Sasuke returned to the Land of Whirlpools to calm its people while Kaguya stayed beside Chinatsu, who continued struggling to finish sacrificing Reishiki.

When Konan revealed that Konoha’s delegation would arrive tomorrow, Chinatsu rushed to have the statue dealt with, while the delegation had already reached the sea near the Land of Whirlpools.

• Konan recorded the Akatsuki members' ideas and resolved to stay up all night creating a blueprint that satisfied them.

Chinatsu lounged at home while Kaguya watched Naruto, Sasuke, and their companions carve a replacement statue from a Raw Stone. As the statue took shape, Kaguya discovered the blueprint’s design, while Chinatsu finished a novel and reacted to Jiraiya’s writing.
