The ninjas outside, whether ordinary ninjas or great figures like Madara and Hashirama, all swallowed hard.

Even the Six Red Yang Formation, which is more powerful than the Four Red Yang Formation, has been destroyed like this. If it weren't for this barrier, they probably wouldn't have had many survivors after this attack. Thinking of this, they suddenly felt grateful to Obito.

As the smoke and dust cleared, a large hole appeared in Obito's Truth-Seeking Ball, clearly indicating that it had been blasted open. The extremely thick earthen wall that had somehow materialized in front of the evil god was also in ruins.

Whoosh!

Neji flashed like a humanoid light, disappearing in an instant, and with a bang, he directly trampled the evil god under his feet, crushing a patch of land. At the same time, his left hand had already grabbed Obito's neck. The so-called Truth-Seeking Balls were as useless as paper in his eyes.

Neji caught the evil god and Obito before they even had time to react, and they were suddenly shocked.

"This is the power of the Six Paths level? This power is nothing special."

Feeling the struggle of the two people in his hands and at his feet, Neji shook his head dismissively: "Oh right, I almost forgot about you."

Suddenly, a shimmering white chakra arm extended from behind Neji and grabbed the head of the Shinigami who had secretly appeared behind him using Yomotsu Hirasaka.

He had no affection for the Grim Reaper, because Kaguya almost miscarried because of him. The moment he caught him, Neji didn't think twice and slammed his head hard against the ground. The sound of the impact made everyone tremble and a chill ran down their spines.

Despite this, it gave the Allied Shinobi Forces a great sense of security. The weakest side suddenly became the strongest side, and this unexpected change made the Kage grin from ear to ear.

"Who exactly are you?"

"Who is it?" Neji sneered, looking at the evil god at his feet who was already furious and his blood was boiling. He said, "A thousand years have passed, and you still don't remember?"

Neji's words seemed to have triggered some memory of the evil god, who instantly fell into a daze. But the Shinigami was even more excited than him. He had felt this way when he first met Neji, but the difference between the two made him give up the idea. After all, how could a human possibly live for a thousand years?

However, Neji's admission at this moment terrified him. He was more afraid of the man in front of him than Kaguya. He remembered the fear of being dominated by Neji in the past.

"So it was you!"

The evil god's pupils shrank sharply. Just now, he finally remembered everything. However, what he couldn't understand was why the ant he once was had become so powerful.

"Looks like you've all remembered. Then you can all die." Neji said viciously, and with a slight push of his foot, the evil god's body suddenly collapsed, turning into smoke that dissipated like a fiery cloud.

"Wait a moment……"

Before the words of the Death God had even faded, a dense ball of chakra gathered in his large, white hand and pierced straight down through his head. His eyes instantly went blank, and with a clang, it exploded into a sky full of red light.

"hiss……"

Those who witnessed this scene gasped in shock. Who was that? That was a being at the Six Paths level, killed without a second thought.

Obito was very flustered and felt completely insecure. He could even feel the Divine Tree trembling, which made his heart pound in his throat.

"I can't believe you dare to show up again. Your courage is commendable."

Just when Obito thought Neji was about to strangle him, Neji suddenly turned around and looked behind him. There, the Jashin and the Shinigami had been resurrected, looking at Neji with awe and fear in their eyes.

They were ready to hurl insults, but what kind of courage did they have? They were too afraid to run away; who knows what kind of abuse they would suffer if they did?

"Won't I die?" Obito muttered to himself with some doubt, but suddenly felt a little more confident.

"They are native gods formed from the collective will of all beings in the ninja world. As long as the people here live, they will not die. But if you die, you will be gone."

Before Obito could even rant, Neji poured cold water on him, sending him crashing back to hell.

"Go cool off over there." Neji tossed Obito aside, then turned his gaze back to the Shinigami and Jashin, a smile playing on his lips.

He had just parted ways with Kaguya and hadn't even seen his two sons, which already made him unhappy. Now that he saw these two unlucky bastards who wouldn't die, he could finally vent his frustration.

"Wait! Neji, we..."

"You can say what you want to say after the fight is over."

Without giving the Grim Reaper and the Jashin a chance to beg for mercy, Neji transformed into a bolt of purple lightning and flashed behind them with a whoosh.

The two gods naturally resisted, but before they could make a move, Neji had already formed hand seals, and sharp, thin earth spikes instantly shot out from beneath their feet, piercing their skulls.

Before the two gods could say anything, they died again.

Obito watched all this with a chill running down his spine, and all his unspoken words could be summed up in one sentence.

"This world is hell..."

Chapter 239 I am your ancestor

Neji did want to kill the Grim Reaper and the Jashin, but that was impossible. They represented a kind of desire in the hearts of all life forms in the ninja world. Even if he really killed them, replacements would soon appear, which would be even more troublesome. It would be more worthwhile to subdue them than to kill them.

As for Obito, it would be unreasonable to kill him in front of his teacher and friends, but as an indispensable figure in breaking Kaguya's seal, it is obviously impossible to let him go so easily.

"Neji, where are you going?"

However, at this moment, Neji looked at the seemingly lively Byakugan girl blocking his way with some surprise. She was covered in mud and seemed to have been through a bloody battle.

"Hanabi, what... what are you doing here?"

Neji frowned as he looked at his other sister, whom he hadn't seen in a long time. Although he didn't want to admit it, he did feel that the two of them had become somewhat distant. Now that she was suddenly standing in front of him, even the usually quick-witted Neji didn't know what to say.

But now is not the time to talk about that. Hanabi is only 10 years old, which is undoubtedly the youngest ninja on the battlefield. What is she doing here instead of staying at home?

"Of course I'm here to do my part to protect my sister. Tell me first, what are you going to do with this person?"

Hanabi's eyes were fixed on Neji the moment he appeared, and seeing that the war was over, Neji was about to leave with the mastermind behind the Fourth Shinobi World War, which gave her a bad feeling.

As the most conspicuous person in the Fourth Shinobi World War, Neji's every move attracted everyone's attention, and naturally, everything that happened here was also noticed by them.

"You guys really think the war is over?"

At this moment, Madara suddenly summoned the complete Susanoo. Having poured his life's blood into the Infinite Tsukuyomi, he was naturally unwilling to fail like this. Even knowing how terrifying Neji was, he still wanted to take a gamble.

"Ban, the war is over, stop now."

"Neji, I should thank you, because of you, I no longer need to go through the trouble of weakening Obito."

However, Madara completely ignored Hashirama's advice. His Rinnegan eyes vibrated, and black rods suddenly emerged from Obito's body.

Of course, Obito wouldn't just stand by and watch himself be controlled, but his previous battle with Neji had caused him to lose most of his power. With Madara's near-Six Paths level strength, he could still forcibly control him for a period of time.

"Damn it!"

Just as Obito was about to be unable to withstand the Rinne Rebirth technique, Neji suddenly shattered the black rods on Obito's body.

There are two ways to break Kaguya's seal:

The first goal was to obtain the power of all the tailed beasts, namely the Ten-Tails, and then use the massive chakra to break the seal. The reason Black Zetsu encouraged Madara to use the Infinite Tsukuyomi was to facilitate the absorption of the ninjas' chakra to meet the needs of breaking the seal.

Secondly, Hagoromo and Hamura themselves reversed the hand seals of the Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei, releasing Kaguya.

These were the information Neji obtained from Black Zetsu's mind using a Psychic Orb when he captured it. At the same time, Neji also learned Black Zetsu's true form: the spirit of the Divine Tree, representing the will of the Divine Tree.

The second method might not require Hagoromo and Hamura themselves to perform, but it would at least require the combined power of the Rinnegan and Tenseigan. Compared to that, the first condition is obviously easier to achieve.

Neji looked at Madara's ugly face in the distance, sneered, and said, "Madara, wake up. From beginning to end, you have been a pawn in Black Zetsu's plan. Infinite Tsukuyomi does not exist. It is just a scheme that Black Zetsu has set up for thousands of years."

"A thousand years? You mean Black Zetsu is using me? Impossible! Black Zetsu is someone I created, representing my will, how could he possibly betray me?!" Madara roared.

"What makes you think you created Black Zetsu? Black Zetsu has existed for far longer than you. That's enough time for him to alter the stone tablet left by Hagoromo." Neji sneered, looking at the equally incredulous Obito, and slowly said, "Fine, I'll make you understand a little."

"The Divine Tree descended upon this land one day, constantly absorbing its life force. Over time, it developed consciousness, which became Black Zetsu. During this time, its guardian, Kaguya Otsutsuki, also came here, but she fell in love with a human who should not have appeared in that era."

"Because of that human, Kaguya abandoned her original plan to use Infinite Tsukuyomi to transform the people here into living weapons. Soon after, the two fell in love, and Kaguya gave birth to two children named Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura."

"In the end, the human returned to his original era, while Kaguya sealed herself away with her child to protect the land from the destruction of the Divine Tree. However, at the last moment, the Divine Tree left behind a wisp of its consciousness and began its journey to escape."

Neji recounted everything vividly, then looked at the somewhat stunned crowd and laughed, "That's right, that human was me. During the time I disappeared, I went back to the past and became Hagoromo and Hamura's father."

"In other words, whether it's the Senju, Uzumaki, Hyuga, Uchiha, or Kaguya clan, they are all descendants of me and Kaguya! I am your ancestor!"

A cool breeze blew by, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Everyone wore an incredibly varied expression, as if they had just swallowed a fly.

Everyone in the room was devastated. Hinata and Hanabi must have been the worst off. Their favorite older brother had suddenly become their ancestor, which meant that their ancestor Kaguya Otsutsuki had become their sister-in-law. How would they even address her after they married into the family? Wait, could they even get married in this situation?

Others shared the same thought, and after a brief moment of stunned silence, they all fainted.

Neji knew that this news was quite a shock to them, so he simply stopped paying attention to them and instead carried the mentally unstable Obito to the side of the Divine Tree.

The Divine Tree has always absorbed the power of this land, but having absorbed the power of the Grell Stone, it has long since mastered the natural energy of the ninja world. In other words, controlling the Divine Tree is incredibly easy for it.

Neji closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened them again, they had transformed into two red Rinnegan with nine tomoe, also known as the Rinne Sharingan.

His eyes echoed those of the demon within, and under his control, the Divine Tree immediately began to retaliate against Obito. Obito was startled, but being already weak, he was unable to resist the power of the Divine Tree. In just a moment, the power of the Gedo Mazo and the nine tailed beasts within his body was extracted.

Chapter 240: The War Ends and Kaguya's Liberation

"Looks like you really did have a trick up your sleeve."

Obito's sacrifice was inevitable in order to bring Kaguya out, but Neji, who originally intended to use the power of Yin-Yang Release to save Obito, was suddenly stunned when he saw Obito's eyes. Even he was somewhat impressed by Obito's foresight at this moment.

"Sacrificing a kaleidoscope in exchange for a life, that's definitely worth it. You're something else, Obito. Madara has raised an extraordinary person."

All I can say is that Obito has grown a lot from these years of experience. He even has a backup plan for himself. Neji looked at the Mangekyou Sharingan that was gradually turning gray and the Obito who was slowly regaining his vitality and couldn't help but sigh.

"That's natural. I didn't originally intend to do that, but the unknowns of the evil god and the god of death were too great at the time. Besides, Madara, who was so eager to make me exchange my life for his, was so kind as to make me the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki. It's only natural to leave myself a way out in the face of all this."

After Obito, who had returned to his original form, woke up, he slowly said, "Even so, I never expected that he would die at Neji's hands."

As the two were talking, the Divine Tree also underwent a change. After absorbing all of Obito's chakra, its ** quickly opened up completely, and the huge Rinne Sharingan resonated with the moon in the sky as soon as it appeared.

A crimson Rinnegan with nine tomoe appeared above the moon.

It was nighttime, but the moon was emitting a blinding light. However, this was not the Infinite Tsukuyomi, but a necessary step to break Kaguya's seal.

A moment later, the moonlight gradually subsided, eventually transforming into a beam of light that shone directly onto the Divine Tree. A figure with long, silver-white hair slowly slid down the beam and landed on the giant Rinne Sharingan within the tree.

"Kaguya..."

Looking at the woman in front of him who seemed to be fast asleep, Neji felt a surge of excitement in his eyes and immediately let go of Obito's hand.

Suddenly, he began to fall, which made Obito curse inwardly. Fortunately, he had been to the Six Paths level, so he could still create some Truth-Seeking Balls to carry him down.

At the same time, large amounts of chakra began to surge from the ground, rushing towards the ball of light that the Divine Tree had transformed into, like a volcanic eruption, creating a spectacular sight.

This was naturally Neji's doing. The Divine Tree could liberate Kaguya's body, but awakening Kaguya's consciousness required an extremely large amount of chakra. This natural energy, which Neji had already arranged, was purer than the chakra of the ninjas, making it the most suitable for awakening Kaguya.

After absorbing this natural energy, the Divine Tree began to change, swirling into Kaguya's body like a vortex. When the Divine Tree was completely absorbed into Kaguya's body, Kaguya awoke.

"I... has the seal been broken? Where am I?"

Kaguya felt a wave of dizziness as soon as she opened her eyes, as if she had suddenly woken up after being bedridden for a long time. The intense pain made her stop thinking about it and instead look around curiously.

She remembered telling Hagoromo and Hamura not to wake her up, but it seemed the two children hadn't listened to her at all. She was even thinking about whether she should give them a few slaps with a wooden board when she saw them later.

Suddenly, she felt her arm being pulled, which made her frown slightly. She turned her head and saw the familiar face from her dream. Although she hadn't smelled his scent in a long time, it was still so comforting.
