A century later, at a certain moment, in the desolate center of Neptune Star Domain, the enormous energy Uzumaki suddenly contracted, and then violently erupted!
An indescribable pressure, surpassing all things, like the first ray of light at the beginning of the universe, instantly swept across the entire star field! Under this pressure, all the debris and fragments seemed to become as insignificant as dust.
At the energy center, Tsubasa's figure slowly emerged. He still looked the same, but his temperament had undergone a complete transformation. Profound and vast, like the starry sky itself. With each opening and closing of his eyes, it seemed as if the birth and death of worlds were unfolding. A faint golden halo surrounded him, a halo that was warm and full of vitality, yet contained an inviolable majesty.
Eternal Saint! Success!
Having endured countless hardships, comprehended the principles of life and death, and united the wishes of all beings, he finally took this final step and ascended to the highest holy position!
With his sainthood secured, two crystal-clear pieces of information about the divine powers of Saint naturally surfaced in his holy soul's sea of consciousness:
Firstly, there is the Golden Lotus Holy Light. This is the ultimate manifestation of the Way of Life. Where the Holy Light shines, withered trees come back to life, all things grow, it can give life to inanimate objects, heal all wounds of the Way, and even create simple life forms within its domain! Its main function is "bestowing" and "reviving," representing infinite vitality and creation.
Secondly, there is the Will of Fire Formation. This is the ultimate divine power of protection and destruction. It is not an ordinary array, but a Saint Level forbidden technique that draws upon one's own conviction and Saint Power, simulating the final resolve of all beings in the Shinobi World. Once activated, it ignites one's own sacred soul and dantian Saint Power, unleashing a destructive force hundreds or even thousands of times greater than one's normal state, used to destroy all enemies! This technique is extremely domineering, but because its core is "will" and " Saint Power," rather than burning one's original soul, after its use, it only clears the dantian Saint Power, causing a period of weakness, but it will not damage the Saint's foundation, nor will it cause death. It can be said to combine the conviction of protection with the power of absolute destruction!
Tsubasa felt the surging, vast Saint Power within his body, far exceeding that of his Half-Saint period by ten thousand times, as well as these two powerful innate divine abilities. However, he felt not much joy, but only a heavy sense of responsibility and mission.
"Now... it's time," he said softly, his gaze fixed on the once vibrant but now desolate Shinobi Planet.
Tsubasa took a step forward, and space seemed to disappear before him, instantly returning him to the skies above Shinobi Planet. Looking down at the gray, shattered earth below, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination.
He hovered outside the atmosphere of Shinobi Planet, slowly raising his hands, and within his body's dantian, a vast amount of Saint Power began to surge.
" Golden Lotus Holy Light!"
There was no earth-shattering display, only a soft and vast golden light, like a mother's hand gently caressing the entire Shinobi Planet. After the golden light passed, a miracle occurred—
Clear water gushed forth from the dried-up riverbed and quickly converged to form a rushing river.
The withered forest, beneath the ashes, sprouted tender green shoots at a visible speed, then grew wildly, restoring its former lushness in a short time.
The barren land was covered with a layer of lush green grass, and flowers of all colors bloomed in competition.
The shattered mountains were smoothed and reshaped by an unseen force, becoming even more magnificent and majestic.
The entire Shinobi Planet seemed to have been resurrected; the deathly silence was dispelled, and life was returning in a frenzy! The sky turned azure, dotted with white clouds, and the sun shone brightly on the earth, warm and full of hope.
But that's not enough. The planet has regained its vitality, but what about its will? What about the lives that perished?
Tsubasa cast his gaze into the core of the Shinobi Planet. There, the light that originally represented the Will of the Shinobi World had been completely extinguished and dissipated. He took a deep breath and transformed the power of the Golden Lotus Holy Light, which contained his ultimate understanding of the law of "life," into the most primordial seed of will, and slowly injected it into the core of the Shinobi Planet.
"Awaken... the very essence of the Shinobi Planet's will." Tsubasa conveyed his thoughts through his Holy Soul.
Buzz--!
The entire Shinobi Planet trembled slightly! A faint but real consciousness began to sprout and grow anew from the planet's core! Although it was still very weak and far weaker than before, it was indeed the rebirth of the Will of the Shinobi World! It sensed the familiar yet incredibly powerful aura of Tsubasa, conveying emotions of admiration and joy.
The Shinobi World has come alive!
Having reshaped the Shinobi World and revived the planet's will, the next and most crucial step is to revive all living beings!
This involves one of the most fundamental laws of life in the universe—those who die from the spontaneous combustion of their life souls among the beings of the Shinobi World. Even Saint cannot easily reverse their life and death, otherwise they will pay a huge price. But Tsubasa has his own way.
He did not forcibly retrieve people from the river of time, but instead relied on two things: first, the "blood causal" connection between himself and the resurrected target; and second, his ability to glimpse the prayers of all beings in the river of time, combined with the "life-giving" essence bestowed by the Golden Lotus Holy Light.
His first targets were his closest relatives, with whom he shared the deepest blood ties.
"Father... Mother..." Tsubasa closed his eyes, his holy soul following the unseen bloodline connection, piercing through time and space, capturing the last trace of his parents' lives before their annihilation in the rushing river of time (not the soul itself, but the trace of their existence). At the same time, he mobilized a massive amount of Saint Power, using the Golden Lotus Holy Light as the core, combined with his understanding of the laws of life, to begin reshaping his parents' physical bodies and soul structures out of thin air!
This is an extremely meticulous process, requiring a profound understanding of time, cause and effect, and the laws of life. Golden light gathered in his hands, gradually forming two blurry human figures, flesh, meridians, soul... being constructed and filled little by little. At the same time, he "imprinted" his parents' complete memories and personalities from the river of time.
After an unknown amount of time, two familiar figures slowly coalesced in the golden holy light—it was his father Senju Tenpuku, and his mother Senju Ga! They slowly opened their eyes, their gazes initially filled with confusion, before they saw Tsubasa before them, felt his vast yet familiar aura, and were surrounded by a completely unfamiliar yet vibrant world.
" Tsubasa? This... we're not..." The father looked at his hands in disbelief.
"Was it a dream? Or...?" Tears welled up in the mother's eyes.
"It's not a dream. Father, Mother, welcome back to the new Shinobi World." Tsubasa smiled, tears glistening in his eyes. "I'll explain the details later."
He followed the same method and began to resurrect his seven aunts, wife, children... one by one, his relatives with whom he had direct blood ties were brought back to the mortal world by him, using his supreme Saint Power combined with the life force of the golden lotus, from the traces of time.
The family reunited, overwhelmed with emotion, as if a lifetime had passed. Tsubasa comforted them and continued his work.
Next came his friends and comrades-in-arms with whom he had a deep causal connection. This process was more exhausting because causal connections are not as direct as blood ties.
He found Mito Uzumaki, Madara Uchiha, Tsunade, Jiraiya, Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha... these powerful figures who had left a strong mark on the history of the Shinobi World, as well as the founders of the Summoning Holy Lands such as the Toad Sage and the White Snake Sage.
One by one, figures reappeared in the golden holy light. After their resurrection, they were first shocked by their own condition and the changes in their surroundings, then they saw Tsubasa and felt his unfathomable aura, as vast as the universe, and immediately understood what had happened.
" Tsubasa... it was you... who resurrected us?" Mito Uzumaki asked in shock, feeling the surging life force within her and the potential far greater than before she was alive.
"The realm of Saint...?" Madara Uchiha's sharp eyes immediately perceived the essence of the Tsubasa Realm, his tone filled with complexity and shock.
"Great! I knew you wouldn't be so easy to kill!" Madara Uchiha shouted excitedly, rushing forward to give Tsubasa a hug, but was gently pushed away by the holy aura naturally emanating from Tsubasa.
Tsubasa nodded to them, and to the growing number of familiar faces who were subsequently resurrected, and said in a deep voice, "It's me. Everyone... has suffered. Let's return to the Shinobi World first; we'll discuss the details later."
