Chapter Summaries

Xuandou used genjutsu to bring the Daimyo of the Land of Earth under his control, then annexed the country into Hidden Xuan Village with little resistance. After Uchiha Itachi reported that the God Tree had borne fruit, Xuandou prepared to travel to Hozuki Island and claim it.

• Xuandou controlled the Daimyo with his Sharingan and ordered him to follow his instructions.
• A month later, Xuandou announced that the Land of Earth would become part of Hidden Xuan Village, and the Daimyo publicly abdicated in his favor.

• Mabui oversaw the transfer of the nobles' lands and businesses as Hidden Xuan Village assumed control of the country.
• Itachi reported that the God Tree on Hozuki Island had borne fruit, and Xuandou ordered preparations to go there and consume it.

Xuandou returned to Hozuki Island and found that the God Tree had drained the surrounding sea and soil to create a Chakra Fruit. After consuming it, he transformed into an Ōtsutsuki and awakened the Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan, leaving him connected to the God Tree and able to tear through space.

• Xuandou arrived at Hozuki Island with Itachi and saw that the enormous God Tree had left the surrounding waters devoid of life.

• Xuandou directed the energy into his Rinnegan as his eyes and body transformed, gaining silvery-white hair and the Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan.
• Xuandou sensed a connection to the God Tree, realized he could become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, and tore open cracks in space with a casual wave.

After consuming an incomplete Chakra Fruit, Xuandou gained new dōjutsu abilities and Ōtsutsuki power but realized he needed a pure-blooded Ōtsutsuki to complete his evolution. He returned to Hidden Xuan Village after Kushina reported that their son Hanyu had suddenly fallen unconscious while training.

• Xuandou found that Tokitsumori could rewind twenty seconds and that he had become an Ōtsutsuki with the Shinjutsu Kāma.

• Xuandou returned to the Imperial Palace, where Kushina told him Hanyu had collapsed while practicing Yin-Yang Release and could not be awakened.
• Xuandou hurried with Kushina to see Hanyu and wondered whether the boy’s Six Paths Body had triggered an early Rinnegan awakening or another unforeseen change.

• Xuandou trained Hanyu for several days to improve his accuracy and use of Time Stop while moving.
• During their spar, Hanyu's kunai struck Xuandou with its energy, stopping time and blanking Xuandou's consciousness.

Xuandou pushed Hanyu to master his Time Stop ability while the Hidden Xuan Village expanded its control across the shinobi world. Alarmed by Uchiha Xuantou’s growing power, the daimyō of the Land of Fire arranged a secret alliance with the Lands of Wind and Water and planned to pressure Konoha into attacking the Uchiha from behind.

• After the meeting, Yamato’s Wood Release Clone went to report the alliance to the daimyō, while Yamato’s original body headed toward Konoha.

After receiving reports from Tsunade and Mei Terumi, Xuandou concluded that Konoha and Kirigakure were already on his side and considered using Infinite Tsukuyomi to strengthen his rule. He traveled to the moon with Hanyu and arrived at the place where Kaguya Ōtsutsuki was sealed.

• Time Stop wore off, and Kaguya saw the glowing heart-shaped mark and angrily demanded to know what Xuandou had done to her.

Xuandou and Hanyu fought Kaguya until Xuandou activated the Slave Mark, but Kaguya severed its connection and moved them to the Gravity Dimension. Kaguya agreed to cooperate against the Ōtsutsuki, and Xuandou returned with her to Hidden Xuan Village, where he prepared a bath for her before activating the system’s live feed.

• The system identified Mashu as an A-Rank kunoichi and assigned Xuandou the quest to reunite her with Pakura in Hidden Xuan Village.

• Mashu accused Uchiha Xuantou of leading Konoha forces to devastate the Land of Wind during the last Great Shinobi World War, and Xuandou admitted it.
