"Something is slowly eating our 'moon' away!"
Obito's voice, filled with fear and trembling, echoed in the deathly silent Divine Grace Hall, causing Tsunade, Mei Terumi, and the others, who had just been appointed and were still immersed in the huge shock of the power transition, to change their expressions drastically in an instant!
Eat the moon?
What an absurd and unimaginable scene that was!
The moon, it is the foundation of the Divine Kingdom, the palace where the man on the throne reigns supreme! If the moon is destroyed, then—
In an instant, everyone's gaze instinctively converged on the throne, trying to see even the slightest hint of panic on the man's face.
However, they were disappointed.
Uchiha Gen'yō slowly opened his golden Kamui eyes, which had been closed for a short rest. Instead of showing any panic, his face revealed a playful smile, like a hunter who had spotted an interesting prey.
"Oh? Eat the moon?"
He repeated it lightly in a tone as indifferent as if he were discussing the Tenten, then the curve of his lips grew even colder.
"It seems there are some restless mice lurking in corners I don't know about."
This composure, this absolute confidence that disregarded a crisis capable of upending the world, instantly injected a powerful dose of adrenaline into the hearts of everyone present.
Yes, what are they worried about?
The one on the throne is a god who can create "chaos" at will, manipulate bloodlines, and regard "shadows" as ants!
He can trample the world under his feet, so what is a mere monster that appeared out of nowhere?
"Boss, this is no joke!" Obito's holographic projection was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. "That thing is incredibly fast! According to the last data transmitted back by Amaterasu's mainframe, the energy level of the opponent is incalculable! It's not physically devouring the moon, but erasing its existence at a conceptual level! At this rate, in three days at most, the entire moon will be completely wiped off this world!"
"Three days?" Gen'yō raised an eyebrow, seemingly satisfied with the timeframe.
He slowly rose from his throne, his tall figure casting a massive, god-like shadow under the radiance of the Divine Grace Hall, making everyone below feel suffocated.
"It seems my brief period of peace will be even shorter than I expected."
His gaze slowly swept over the four "queens" below, each with a different posture, yet all possessing unparalleled beauty and elegance.
Tsunade.
"Here!" Tsunade straightened up instinctively, her beautiful brown eyes filled with seriousness.
"I'll give you one day." Gen'yō's voice brooked no argument. "Integrate all the existing war resources of the Divine Kingdom. I need to see a detailed logistical support plan sufficient to cope with a 'planet-destroying' war. The Ministry of Medicine must be prepared to treat any wounded that may appear—although I don't think there will be any."
"Yes!" Tsunade accepted the order without hesitation. She knew this was Gen'yō's first test for her!
Gen'yō's gaze then turned to Konan and Kurotsuchi.
" Konan, Kurotsuchi, you two work together. With the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Construction operating at full capacity, I will transform the ' Moon Palace ' into a true interstellar war fortress within a single day! Activate all defensive barriers, unleash all the Chakra Cannons,' and convert all the resources we've captured into the most powerful firepower!"
"Yes, my lord!"
"Mission accomplished!"
Konan and Kurotsuchi immediately bowed and accepted the order, their eyes burning with excitement and a sense of challenge.
Finally, Gen'yō's gaze fell on Mei Terumi, who was kneeling on one knee, with the most humble posture but the most ardent eyes.
Mei Terumi.
"Your subordinate is here." Mei Terumi's voice trembled slightly, a tremor of excitement.
"Your ' Divine Punishment ' now has its first task." Gen'yō's lips curled into a cruel smile. "I don't care what that 'moon-eating' thing is; I need you to use every means at your disposal to investigate it thoroughly."
"I'm giving you authorization to mobilize the ' Void God Unit,' allowing them to infiltrate that void. I need to know its form, its weaknesses, everything about it!"
"I want a perfect menu for this prey already laid out on my table before I even begin my 'hunt'."
Can you do it?
"Your will is the sole tenet of ' Divine Punishment '!" Mei Terumi raised her stunningly beautiful face, her emerald green eyes gleaming with fanatical light. "Your subordinate will never fail in your duty!"
"Very good."
Gen'yō looked at the four queens below, who had been mobilized by his single sentence and instantly entered a state of war, and nodded with satisfaction.
A stable power structure can unleash its most powerful energy in the face of a crisis.
What he wanted was precisely this kind of sophisticated, efficient war machine, completely loyal to him alone!
" Obito." Gen'yō's gaze returned to the holographic projection.
"Boss, I'm here!"
"Activate the ' Space-Based Weapon System - Ame-no-Murakumo '." Gen'yō's voice suddenly turned icy. "Since it likes to eat, let it eat its fill."
"Aim our twelve ' Rod of God ' from that coordinate and unleash a saturation bombardment!"
"I'd like to see whether its teeth are harder, or my Uchiha's 'staff'!"
Obito was stunned upon hearing this.
Using the " Rod of God " to bombard a void? That's a strategic weapon designed to destroy continents! Just like that?
But when he saw Gen'yō's golden, Kamui eyes, devoid of any emotion, he instantly swallowed all his questions.
"Yes! I'll take care of it right away!"
Obito's projection vanished instantly.
Divine Grace Hall, only the four queens, each with their own agenda yet equally eager for battle, remained, along with a few remnants of the old era, utterly forgotten in a corner, slumped on the ground like trash.
Gen'yō ignored them and slowly turned around to sit back on his throne.
He closed his eyes, but his mind had already sunk into that " Divine Kingdom Nursery Hall," a place brimming with life.
He could "see" his mother, Mikoto, and his concubine, Izumi, happily holding their two newborn, exquisitely beautiful babies under the care of the medical-nin left Tsunade.
He could "hear" the powerful heartbeats of the two little ones, and the terrifying potential within their blood that even he found astonishing.
The eldest son inherited his purest " Sun Power," and was born with Fire Style and Yang Release. There was a faint tendency in his bloodline to evolve towards the " Tenseigan."
The second son inherited the " Moon Power " in his bloodline, possessing an innate ability to control Yin Release and spiritual energy. His eyes, which had just opened, already showed the rudiments of One-Tomoe Sharingan!
" Madara Uchiha, Uchiha Izuna."
For some reason, these two names popped into Gen'yō's mind.
Perhaps, this is the inheritance of bloodlines.
A gentle smile, emanating from the heart, curved his lips.
War, power, conquest—isn't the ultimate purpose of all of this to protect this hard-won warmth and comfort?
" Amaterasu," he whispered.
"Yes, my lord."
"Raise the ' Yin Moon ' crisis level to 'God-level'."
"Pass the notification down as well." Gen'yō's voice carried an undeniable air of weariness and languor.
"I will be hosting a banquet in my bedchamber tonight."
"Bring Tsunade, Konan, Kurotsuchi, Mei Terumi, and my mother Izumi here."
"Let's celebrate our Divine Kingdom's first 'family meeting'."
"Yes, my lord."
Amaterasu Mainframe, faithfully carried out the orders.
However, Tsunade and the others below the throne had different expressions when they heard this divine decree.
Family meeting?
Tsunade and Mei Terumi's cheeks instantly flushed an unnatural red.
Are they considered "family"?
The moment this thought arose, it was like the strongest liquor, making their hearts race uncontrollably.
Tsunade glanced at Mei Terumi beside her, whose eyes were filled with fanaticism and ambition, and then at Konan, who was calmly calculating something, Kurotsuchi Konan, who was full of energy. Suddenly, an unprecedented sense of crisis welled up in her heart.
This so-called "family meeting" is probably not as simple as it seems.
