Starting with rogue ninjas, building the insect kingdom.

The three of them continued deeper into the complex of buildings. Orochimaru observed and recorded as he walked, but the surrounding buildings became increasingly dense, gradually transforming from single-story bungalows into multi-story ancient mansions and towers.

Orochimaru suddenly sensed a disturbance in the distance. "Someone's coming!"

However, the Crimson Scorpion's thermal sensors did not detect any temperature, so it must be a puppet.

Sure enough, a bunch of puppets came charging over soon. Perhaps knowing the puppeteers' perverse tastes, these puppets were all dressed as young girls, with exquisite bodies and delicate faces, and equipped with deadly weapons.

One can imagine how oppressed people trapped on that planet must have felt.

Crimson Scorpion thought to himself that if it were for defense against enemies, he would never have known that such a boring humanoid puppet was actually not the most suitable combat form in theory.

Excluding human puppets, a spherical porous filament structure is the most suitable for a simple puppet.

The puppets were incredibly fast, lunging at the three from all directions. Their hands could transform into various weapons: knives, swords, spears, scythes, and even long-range beam cannons.

Unfortunately, their opponents were the most terrifying group from Ninja Star.

Orochimaru and Shisei didn't even have to lift a finger; Sasori alone, piloting his humanoid robot, dismantled the puppets into pieces.

He even disassembled the weapons from the puppets—blades, poison needles, beam cannons, and sealing talismans—for his collection.

At this moment, the person in the shadows finally couldn't bear it any longer and seemed to want to remotely control the Crimson Scorpion puppet.

However, what he didn't know was that Crimson Sasori had already gotten rid of the negative effects of chakra and completely incorporated it into himself. This puppet control was useless to him and almost exposed his direction.

The battle ended in less than three minutes.

The exquisite puppet was dismembered into pieces, and some core parts were even collected into the scroll by the Crimson Scorpion.

"Let's go." Aburame Shisei stepped over the remains of a puppet and continued toward the center of the complex, heading straight toward the direction where Otsutsuki Toneri was hiding.

Orochimaru laughed along behind him, thinking that the boy was likely to suffer for offending Zhicheng.

Why not just wait patiently for your favor?

At the center of the complex is a huge hemispherical building with an open top that reveals an internal void, above which floats a massive, golden sphere of light.

The sphere of light, at least three meters in diameter, hovered in the center of the building, slowly rotating; it was a complete, enormous Reincarnation Eye.

Orochimaru looked up at the ball of light, his eyes filled with undisguised curiosity.

"What a pity. The chakra inside is too chaotic and the consciousness too mixed. If someone rashly merges with this eyeball and their will is not strong enough, they will definitely be corrupted."

"That's normal, after all, it's formed by the fusion of many eyeballs." Aburame Shisei didn't care about the Tenseigan, because he had purified an even smaller one a long time ago. Purifying this thing wasn't complicated, and he even had the magic artifact he used to purify it.

Made using the Byakugan and sealing techniques, this thing once sealed Black Zetsu, but unfortunately Black Zetsu was too useless. In the end, it was fed to the Ghost Immortal Insect, but it still didn't allow him to transform.

To be honest, this is something that Shisei Aburame regrets. If he had known this would happen, he should have studied more about how Black Zetsu was formed.

He then turned his gaze to the back of the Turning Eye, where a boy was huddled behind its base. His silver-white hair covered half of his face, and one eye was exposed, its hollow socket empty.

Otsutsuki Toneri was born without eyes, supposedly because his body was so powerful that he absorbed all the nutrients.

Before Aburame Shichen could get close, he emerged from the shadows, brandishing a long, sharp bone weapon and thrusting it straight at him.

It moves at an extremely high speed, almost like teleportation under the low gravity of the moon.

Otsutsuki Toneri likely possesses spatial abilities, but these are only suitable for long-range teleportation and not for direct combat.

Moreover, his combat experience and attack methods were very crude. Aburame Shisei grabbed his thrusting weapon in one go, and then used his other hand to grab his throat and lift him into the air.

Then, a tiny insect burrowed into his skin through his fingers and completely took control of his nerves.

The nerves below Otsutsuki Toneri's spine were completely blocked, rendering him unable to resist.

"This is Otsutsuki Toneri. I thought he was much more powerful." Orochimaru stepped forward and was somewhat disappointed when he saw Otsutsuki Toneri with his empty eyes.

This was different from the Otsutsuki he remembered. It didn't have horns on its head and was similar to a normal human. Most importantly, it was incomplete and even inferior to their clones.

"He is still very strong. If he were given the right eyes, he could transform into someone close to the Six Paths level, and might even be able to use Truth-Seeking Balls."

"Seeking Truth Ball!" Upon hearing this, Crimson Scorpion immediately stepped forward, eager to obtain some of Otsutsuki Toneri's body tissues, such as genetic material.

He acted on his whim, and Otsutsuki Toneri was powerless to resist. His face flushed red with shame, and he was so ashamed that he almost killed someone.

But the Crimson Scorpion didn't care at all. After extracting a tube of tissue, he cut off a piece of flesh from him. However, he was very curious and used a healing spell to heal the wound.

Then came Orochimaru. He took out a syringe, drew out a large tube of blood, and released a long, thin snake that burrowed into his body and took a part of his internal organs.

Aburame Shisei was very kind. After the two of them obtained the tissue cells, he used the Sheng Yang Worm to completely heal his body and fed him a worm to increase his physical strength.

"Otsutsuki Toneri, nice to meet you. My name is Aburame Shisei, and I am temporarily in charge of the Ninja Star."

The boy, feeling humiliated and angry, said, "I know who you are, but I want to know how you know me."

Aburame Shisei said, "Your Tenseigan has been spying on the ninja world. You think you're hiding it well, but in fact, every time your gaze sweeps across the ninja world, it leaves a trace."

"Who are they?" Otsutsuki Toneri wanted to ask their names. It's not hard to imagine that he wanted to remember their names and then find a way to get revenge.

Before Aburame Shisei could answer, the two men behind him laughed, "Orochimaru, Sasori, welcome to seek revenge!"

Otsutsuki Toneri frowned; in fact, he had been unable to observe the ninja world for a long time.

Prior to this, he had not paid much attention to Orochimaru and others, but he did know Shisei Aburame.

Because after the appearance of that thirteen-segmented insect, the giant Reincarnation Eye's ability to observe was completely cut off.

He could no longer secretly spy on the ninja world, and unexpectedly, life became boring.
