Aizen tested whether his spiritual pressure could reshape the Pure Land and began turning its stored ninja souls into Hollows and Arrancars. After transforming several Uchiha and helping Rin Nohara and Uchiha Mikoto begin their evolution, he persuaded the Sage of Six Paths to undergo Hollowfication as well.
As the Fourth Shinobi War neared its end, Toneri Ōtsutsuki joined Ōtsutsuki Kaguya against the Allied Shinobi Forces, forcing Naruto, Sasuke, and two Kage to fight him. The battle left Toneri struggling against them, while Minato Namikaze diverted his devastating Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion to an empty mountain forest.
Toneri Ōtsutsuki fought Minato Namikaze while Black Zetsu urged Kaguya to unleash a weakened Infinite Tsukuyomi. The technique trapped most of the world but spared several fighters, and Minato and Toneri headed for the main battlefield.
Guy opened all eight gates and overwhelmed Ōtsutsuki Kaguya with a series of Evening Elephant strikes. As Kaguya fell and Black Zetsu reassured her that Guy was nearly spent, Guy began gathering power for another attack.
Might Guy used Night Guy to devastate Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, but the effort killed him. As Kaguya began regenerating and struggling to control the Ten-Tails, Toneri Ōtsutsuki arrived with Minato Namikaze, and Black Zetsu directed Toneri to buy her time.
Minato Namikaze sent Kakashi to stall Toneri Ōtsutsuki, but Kakashi was immediately knocked away, and Minato realized he had been fooled by Naruto’s claim that Kakashi always fought to a draw. Minato then battled Toneri with Flying Thunder God tactics and sealed most of his chakra, while Naruto, Sasuke, and the others confronted Ōtsutsuki Kaguya.
After Minato Namikaze defeated Toneri, Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju arrived to stage a dramatic battle against Ōtsutsuki Kaguya. Their allies rejoined the fight, and the chapter left Madara and Hashirama battling Kaguya while holding back.
After the Fourth Shinobi World War ended, the six visitors returned to their own world, where Naruto and Minato learned that Lelouch had been arming the Land of Fire’s daimyo. Lelouch planned to use the resulting war to ignite a revolution across the shinobi world.
Naruto learned that Lelouch had used the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to conquer the Land of Wind and planned to spark a peasant uprising, while Naruto and Minato discussed what Lelouch might do next. Jiraiya returned to Konoha and rushed to find Tsunade as Minato prepared to answer the Daimyo’s threat against the village.
Tsunade reunited with Jiraiya after believing he had died, while Naruto and Nagato raided Black Zetsu’s underground base and took its Rinnegan eyes. Black Zetsu learned of the theft as he continued overseeing the Chakra Cannon’s construction in the Land of Lightning, unaware Naruto and Nagato were coming for him.
Zetsu directed Kumogakure's researchers to finish the Chakra Cannon after learning that Nagato and Naruto had taken his Rinnegan. Naruto and Nagato entered the institute to capture Zetsu, but the Raikage and the jinchūriki arrived, and Naruto began fighting the Raikage.
Naruto fought the Raikage and Killer B at Kumogakure’s rear camp, revealing his power as a perfect jinchuriki and his skill with spirit power. After the AB Brothers joined forces, their combined lightning technique began to trap him.
Naruto and Killer B survived the Raikage’s Double Lariat, while Nagato defeated Yugito by binding the Two-Tails with sealing chains. Naruto used an embarrassing video of the Raikage to stop the fight, then secretly let Killer B keep the footage as Zetsu escaped.
Naruto left Kumogakure with Nagato and planned to keep Ōtsutsuki Kaguya sealed until the Shinobi World was prepared for threats from space. After hearing Jiraiya would marry in three days, Naruto and Nagato headed to Amegakure to gather Konan and Yahiko, where Yahiko learned the Land of Fire had targeted his village.
Yahiko and Konan evacuated Amegakure’s entire population to the Revolutionary Base after the Land of Fire demanded the village surrender and hand over its iron. The Land of Fire bombarded the empty village, while Nagato learned Yahiko and the others were safe and destroyed the two Rinnegan.
Obito’s interview about the destruction of Amegakure sparked outrage across the Shinobi World, while the Land of Fire’s Daimyo chose to ignore the backlash and planned an invasion of the Land of Lightning with Lelouch. Nagato and Naruto returned to Konoha as villagers discussed Tsunade and Jiraiya’s upcoming wedding.
Tsunade and Jiraiya celebrated their wedding in Konoha, with Minato arranging the ceremony and Hiruzen serving as witness. The festivities were interrupted by the arrival of the Land of Fire's Daimyo, who entered after Minato ordered his armed escort to surrender their weapons.
The Daimyo of the Land of Fire attended Tsunade and Jiraiya’s wedding with a gift and sought a private conversation with Minato. Above Konoha, Aizen’s Arrancar watched the celebration as Madara remained reluctant to accept his new existence and warned Izuna that the apparent peace between clans had not ended the shinobi wars.
At Tsunade and Jiraiya’s wedding, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire threatened Minato Namikaze with war and an attack on Konoha unless Minato backed his plans. Minato refused to be the Daimyo’s accomplice and trusted Wolffy’s hidden barrier to protect Konoha, then gave Jiraiya and Tsunade pills that might allow them to have a child.
After Tsunade and Jiraiya’s wedding, Naruto asked Aizen about creating a virtual world for souls and learned that a new arrival had appeared in the Sealing Space. The newcomer was Jackie Chan from Jackie Chan Adventures, whom Naruto released and whose story Kurapika began showing him.
Naruto traveled to the moon with Kakuzu and Aizen to plan a real estate project, where they encountered Toneri Ōtsutsuki and Naruto connected the sealed Ōtsutsuki Kaguya to a virtual world. The group stayed on the moon to survey it for homes and plan a Teleportation Device.
Lelouch ordered the Land of Fire to bombard Kumogakure, where the Raikage and his Ninja stopped two rounds of shells and rallied to fight back. As Kumogakure charged the artillery, Lelouch ordered a retreat and left the recruited wandering Ninja to delay them.
Lelouch’s ambush turned the retreating Land of Fire army against the advancing Kumogakure forces, while Takada Daichi’s artillery battered Yugito and Killer B’s tailed beasts. As two masked figures descended onto the battlefield, the fight took a new turn.
Uchiha Itachi and Shisui Uchiha helped defeat the Eight-Tails, Two-Tails, and Kumogakure forces, allowing the Land of Fire to conquer the Land of Lightning. Lelouch then set Itachi and Shisui on a plan to spread revolutionary ideas, while Ōtsutsuki Kaguya discovered the virtual world was only an illusion.
Aizen tested Wolffy's device for entering the virtual world and brought Madara Uchiha, Uchiha Izuna, Hashirama Senju, and Tobirama Senju there to seek out Kaguya. Naruto joined the virtual world too, where he received Shisui Uchiha's invitation to a Revolutionary Movement meeting but hesitated to attend because he did not know how to lecture.
