Ch. 466The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path
Uchiha Itachi revealed that Izanami had become the Ten-Tails and was sealed on the moon as the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, and warned that her revival could destroy humanity. As Sasuke Uchiha arrived on Turtle Island, Itachi departed to face him, leaving Uchiha Senmon with ominous final instructions.
- Uchiha Itachi explained that Izanami had released the Tailed Beasts, transformed into the Ten-Tails, and been banished to the moon by Madara Uchiha, who later died after resealing the beasts.
- Uchiha Itachi warned that the Tailed Beasts would awaken over the next month and that Izanami would revive when the seal weakened on the sixth of the next month’s full moon, seeking to nourish the God Tree with humanity.
- Uchiha Itachi said only the Child of Prophecy, who possessed the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, could stop Izanami, and confirmed that Pain and the Akatsuki sought her revival.
- Uchiha Senmon sensed Sasuke Uchiha arriving on Turtle Island, and Uchiha Itachi left the chamber after asking Senmon to transplant a new pair of Mangekyō Sharingan into the Child of Prophecy.
- Uchiha Senmon offered to escort Professor Nagayama and the navy captain off the island, fearing the coming fight between Sasuke Uchiha and Uchiha Itachi.
