The cruelty and despair of war, like the cold depths of space, shroud the hearts of everyone.
However, this is not the most despairing thing.
Just as the aftershocks of the self-destruction had not completely subsided, and the battlefield was filled with sorrow and anger, the medical support troops, who had been positioned at the rear of the Ōtsutsuki Clan's army, clad in white armor and seemingly merely bystanders, finally moved.
They simultaneously raised bottles containing emerald green liquid—potions extracted from the sap of the God Tree —and chanted ancient and obscure syllables. A vast yet gentle, yet undeniably powerful force of nature emanated from them, spreading rapidly across the entire battlefield like mercury!
"That's... Time Rewind?" In the command center, Tsubasa suddenly stood up, his eyes showing disbelief for the first time.
Under the emerald green light, the Ōtsutsuki soldiers who had just died on the battlefield, whose bodies were still relatively intact—whether they had been slain, blown to pieces, or even disintegrated by Dust Release —began to reassemble and heal at a visible speed! Their scattered soul fragments were forcibly gathered together! In just a few breaths, those Ōtsutsuki soldiers who should have died opened their eyes in a daze and stood up again, as if their previous deaths had been nothing but an illusion!
Even those Ōtsutsuki soldiers who were reduced to ashes in the self-destruction, as long as they still had a trace of bloodline or a fragment of soul, were reborn from the dead by energy reconstructed in that magical green light!
The entire Ōtsutsuki Legion, except for a very few unlucky ones who didn't even leave a trace, was almost completely resurrected! They reappeared in space unharmed, their formation even more rigorous than before!
Even more unexpectedly, the green light seemed to only recognize those with the Ōtsutsuki bloodline! Some ninjas with the bloodline of Kaguya Otsutsuki, such as some Uchiha, Hyuga, and Senju ninjas (who inherited the bloodline of Asura Indra ), and even Senju Nawaki, who had just been blown to pieces, and Sarutobi Shinnosuke, who was seriously injured and on the verge of death, were also enveloped in the green light, their injuries instantly healed, or they were pulled back to reality from the void!
Nawaki stared blankly at his hands, Shinnosuke was astonished to feel the power within him restored to its former state, even surpassing it.
However! Those who did not have the Ōtsutsuki bloodline and died, such as many ordinary Kekkei Genkai ninjas, reinforcements from other worlds, and the vast majority of mecha pilots and pilots... they died, and that's it! There is no sign of resurrection!
With this shift in power, the coalition suffered heavy losses in its high-end combat capabilities, while the enemy recovered to full strength almost instantly!
After fighting for so long and paying such a heavy price, the result is a score of thousands to zero?! Our side executed a series of brilliant maneuvers, but the enemy suffered no losses while we were dealt a devastating blow!
The entire Mars command post, as well as all the surviving Allied soldiers on the front lines, fell into a deathly silence. An unprecedented sense of powerlessness, shock, and a chilling coldness swept over everyone.
The terror of the Ōtsutsuki Clan's regular army, like a cold, cosmic behemoth, finally revealed its despair-inducing side to them.
Tsubasa at the situation on the star map that had reversed in an instant, at the Ōtsutsuki soldiers who had risen again and were even more imposing, and at the dismal casualty figures and low morale of the Allied forces, Tianyi's eyes finally turned completely cold.
On the giant star map screen in the command center, the red dots representing the Ōtsutsuki Legion almost instantly returned to full strength, while the blue dots representing the allied forces dimmed by nearly one-tenth. In particular, more than thirty of the brilliant Golden Core Level dots went out! This almost cheating "full resurrection" combined with the "targeted elimination" self-destruct tactic made the hearts of all the commanders sink to the bottom.
"Unkillable... and able to revive instantly... how can we fight this battle?" a young staff officer muttered to himself, his voice filled with despair.
"Thousands to zero... We sacrificed so many warriors, and the result is zero?" Another veteran ninja slammed his fist on the control panel, his eyes red-rimmed.
Suppression, anger, and helplessness spread like a virus through the hearts of the remaining soldiers in the command post and on the front lines. Watching their comrades who had just fought side by side vanish completely, while the enemy was able to regroup unscathed, the psychological gap was enough to crush even the strongest nerves.
Just as morale was on the verge of collapse, Tsubasa, who had been silently observing the battle, slowly stood up.
He didn't roar or howl, but a vast and boundless aura, like the cosmos, naturally emanated from him, instantly dispelling the gloom and despair within the command center. Everyone subconsciously looked at him, at this Sea God of the Shinobi World, the founder of the Yan Nation's Immortal Venerable Hall, and the strongest in the Shinobi World — the Immortal King Tsubasa!
"We can't wait any longer." Tsubasa's voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable resolve, clearly reaching everyone's ears. "The enemy's methods have exceeded our expectations. In conventional warfare, we have already lost. Now, only top-tier forces can turn the tide."
His gaze swept over the several powerful Ten Family generals in the command post, and he said in a deep voice, "All Golden Core Immortal Venerable under the Ten Family, follow me—to attack!"
As soon as the order was given, the hatch of the " Heavenly Emperor's Chariot," a warship that had been silently hovering behind the command post and had an ornate, palace-like design, was suddenly flung open!
Powerful auras shot into the sky, like hundreds of dazzling Xingchen suddenly illuminating the dark space!
More than three hundred figures, dressed in the same Ten Family Ten Family style armor engraved with profound runes, descended like divine soldiers and quickly assembled behind Tsubasa. Each of them possessed a refined aura and shone with sharp light in their eyes. The weakest among them was at the Early Golden Core realm, and there were many experts at the Middle Golden Core realm!
This is the foundation that the Ten Family has built up over the years with most of the best resources in the Shinobi World! From a small clan with only a few members, the Ten Family has grown into a behemoth with hundreds of thousands of members. Tsubasa's descendants are not only numerous, but also incredibly talented. Although Tsubasa himself only has fourteen children, each one surpasses him in ability, especially in terms of procreation. The current Emperor of Yan Nation, Tenbutsu, has thousands of concubines, thousands of children, and hundreds of thousands of grandchildren! Even his youngest daughter, Tenka, who has the fewest offspring, has dozens of descendants. This massive population, coupled with superior genetics and abundant resources, has created the terrifying scale of the Ten Family, with over three hundred Golden Core Immortal Venerable Venerables!
At the very front of these three hundred-plus Golden Core Immortal Venerable, on the left and right, stood two figures with particularly terrifying auras.
On the left is a woman with a graceful figure and a gentle yet unyielding dignity. She is Tsubasa's eldest daughter Tian Yu. There is a faint flow of two completely different Daoist auras, life and destruction, around her. It is as if she can nourish all things with a single thought, or take away life with another.
On the right stood a burly and imposing man with a resolute face and sharp, eagle-like eyes. He was Tsubasa's son, Tenchu. The mere sight of him seemed to solidify and thicken the surrounding space, as if he alone could support the entire world.
Tian Yu and Tenchu are both at the peak of the Golden Core Immortal Venerable realm, with one foot already in the Immortal King Realm! They are the most powerful pillars of the Ten Family besides Tsubasa!
"Father, we are ready!" Tian Yu's voice was soft, yet carried a resounding strength.
"They have invaded our territory and killed our allies. We will avenge them!" Tenchu's voice boomed like a bell, his fighting spirit boiling.
Tsubasa looked at his two outstanding children and nodded slightly. He didn't say much, just a single word. "Kill!"
In an instant, with Tsubasa at its core and Tian Yu and Tenchu as its left and right arrows, more than three hundred Golden Core Immortal Venerable of the Ten Family, like a destructive galactic torrent, rushed straight out of the Mars defense circle and crashed into the nearly intact Ōtsutsuki Legion in the distance!
The addition of this new force instantly shook the entire battlefield with its overwhelming momentum.
