"Leave the rest to me!"

The calm voice wasn't loud, but it was like a stabilizing force, instantly piercing through the gloom of despair and leaving a clear imprint on the depths of every soul on the verge of collapse!

It's Uchiha Zō!

He is back!

"Insanity!"

For the first time, a noticeable fluctuation appeared in Kaguya Otsutsuki's empty Byakugan eyes—it was the shock and anger of having her divine power challenged by an ant!

She clasped her hands together abruptly, and the expanding Truth-Seeking Balls, like ignited doomsday stars, accelerated with a devastating force that seemed to crush time and space, aiming to annihilate the tiny figure before her along with the entire ninja world!

"How dare you call yourselves 'seeking the Way' such a worthless counterfeit?"

Uchiha Xiang's lips curled into a cold smile, carrying a condescending and scrutinizing air.

With a casual flick of his Great Luo Heaven Sword forward, a point of chaotic purple-gold light suddenly shone from the tip of the sword!

"Great Luo - Heaven Opening!"

There was no earth-shattering explosion, no devastating shockwave.

The moment that point of purple-gold light touched the expanding Seeking the Dao Jade, time and space seemed to freeze for a split second.

Then, to everyone's disbelief, the pitch-black sphere containing the power to destroy all things in the universe, like an ice cube thrown into boiling water, silently and rapidly... melted away from the point of contact!

It was not defeated, nor neutralized, but rather "erased" directly from the very foundation of its existence by a higher-level law!

The world-destroying darkness of the expanding Seeking the Dao Jade vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed, under the illumination of the purple-gold light.

Above the ninja world, only Uchiha Sō's figure, standing with his sword, seemingly holding up the entire world, and Kaguya's pale face filled with astonishment and disbelief remained.

"Impossible! You...you stole the power of the Divine Tree?! No, this feeling...is completely different!"

Kaguya's voice trembled slightly, and her Byakugan activated frantically, trying to analyze the unfamiliar and vast power emanating from Uchiha Eizo.

“Steal? Ha, Princess Kaguya, your vision is as narrow as that of your good-for-nothing ‘son’.”

Uchiha Sho's voice carried a hint of mockery. He took a step forward, and the space beneath his feet rippled like water, instantly bridging the distance between him and Kaguya. The Great Luo Heavenly Sword, with its sharpness that could sever cause and effect, pierced straight for Kaguya's brow!

"Slay a thousand Ash Bones!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki was filled with shock and rage. With a wave of her hands, countless destructive gray-white bone spikes rained down on Uchiha Eboshi. Each one was enough to severely injure or even kill a Six Paths level being!

"A trivial skill."

Uchiha Sho didn't even swing his sword; he simply moved his mind, and purple-gold chaotic light flowed around his body.

Those co-killing ash bones, powerful enough to pierce through space, were instantly decomposed and assimilated as they approached within three feet of him, like a mud ox entering the sea. They were transformed into pure energy and absorbed into the void behind him—that was the "Great Luo Realm" drawing them in!

"Heavenly Mind: Ice and Snow!"

Kaguya activated the space displacement once again, attempting to drag Uchiha Samurai into the extremely cold and desolate icy space.

However, Uchiha Xiang's figure only swayed slightly, but he actually stood still in place!

His clear eye between his brows burst forth with a radiant light that could see through all realms, easily discerning the trajectory and nodes of spatial displacement.

"Trying to manipulate space in front of my 'world'? Trying to teach a fish to swim!"

"Great Luo - Boundary Fixation!"

An invisible force spread out from Uchiha Sō as the center, and the spatial laws that Kaguya had easily rewritten were instantly reinforced and anchored!

The displacement power in the Heavenly Mind was like hitting an impenetrable wall, forcibly interrupted and backfired!

puff!

Kaguya groaned, a trickle of pale golden blood spilling from the corner of her mouth; the spatial backlash had caused her internal injuries.

"Rabbit hair needle!"

"Eighty Divine Void Strike!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki went completely mad, her white hair piercing out like billions of divine spears, and countless enormous fists formed from chakra tore through space and slammed down!

Uchiha Xiang's eyes turned cold, and he finally got serious.

"Great Luo Chaos Chains!"

Several chains, formed from chaotic purple-gold light and inscribed with profound world law runes, shot out from the void behind him!

These chains ignored the physical attack of the rabbit hair needles, directly pierced through the energy torrent of the Eighty Gods' Void Strike, and as if they had a life of their own, precisely wrapped around Kaguya's body!

Chi Chi Chi -!

The moment the chains touched Kaguya's body, they made a sound like a branding iron burning!

Her nearly immortal Otsutsuki body was scorched, and the powerful binding force made the flow of chakra within her body sluggish!

"Roar--!!!"

Kaguya let out a painful scream, trying to break free, but the Chaos Chains contained the power of the fundamental laws of a great world, how could they be easily broken?

Her power was being frantically suppressed and drained!

"Princess Kaguya! Stop!"

Uchiha Sō's voice was like a resounding bell, carrying an undeniable authority.

“Look at your feet! Look at this ‘prosperous’ world that you and your son created! A thousand years ago, it was your attempt to destroy this world that caused the mother and son to turn against each other. Haven’t you realized your mistake yet?”

Kaguya's struggling movements paused slightly, her empty Byakugan sweeping across the ravaged earth below, and the ninjas entangled by the roots of the Divine Tree, barely clinging to life.

A complex, almost forgotten emotion flashed through her cold heart—it was…maternal pity?

"What do you know! Chakra shouldn't be dispersed in the first place! Only by recycling it can..."

Kaguya's voice was filled with a resentful roar.

"What talent? Talent that lets you hide on this planet, waiting for a more powerful Otsutsuki to come knocking on your door and recycle you and the entire ninja world like garbage?"

Uchiha Elephant interrupted her, his voice cold and cruel, delivering a fatal blow!

"what?!"

Kaguya was struck dumb, her struggling movements completely halted, and she looked at Uchiha Sō in disbelief.

"You...how do you know about the Otsutsuki main family?! Who are you?!"

Who I am is not important.

From its superior position, the Uchiha elephant tightened the power of the Chaos Chains, causing Kaguya to curl up in pain.

"The important thing is that I know the future! Otsutsuki Isshiki has been missing for so long, do you really think the main family would be completely unaware?"

Momoshiki, Kinshiki, Urara-style... they're already on their way!

Or perhaps they're already lurking somewhere, observing this place!

So what if you take back the ninja world?

It's nothing more than turning oneself into a more tempting 'Chakra Fruit,' waiting to be picked by a stronger predator!

"..."

Kaguya fell silent.

Uchiha Sō's words were like the sharpest ice pick, piercing through the deepest fear in her heart.

She chose to betray Isshiki and monopolize the Chakra Fruit because she feared being hunted down and reclaimed by her main clan.

Sealed for a thousand years, her power has not returned to its peak. If what Uchiha Sō said is true...

"Join me."

Uchiha Sho's voice softened, carrying an irresistible allure.

"Abandon this pointless destruction of the world. Release all the chakra you have absorbed, and give them back their freedom. I will grant you a new home—in my world, the Great Luo Realm, you will be the 'Mother of All Stars,' ruling over the starry sky of my realm, creating stars and all things!"

That place is your new 'nursery', far away from the spying of the Otsutsuki clan.

And I will become your shield! Only by joining forces can we have a chance to fight against those predators in the future!

"Mother of the Stars...the new nursery...the barrier..."

For the first time, genuine thought and struggle appeared in Kaguya's empty Byakugan.

The oppressive power of the Chaos Chains caused her pain, but the future depicted by Uchiha Eiko, and the deep-seated fear of the main clan ingrained in her blood, made her waver.

She sensed the vast, independent power of the world emanating from Uchiha Elephant, a power that truly deserved to serve as a barrier…

After a long while, under the breathless gaze of the crowd below, Kaguya finally lowered her proud head with difficulty and slowly, her voice carrying a hint of humiliation, yet also a sense of relief:

"...I...promise you."

Following her will, the main trunk of the divine tree that spanned heaven and earth slowly retracted to the moon, and the white roots that covered the earth quickly withered and disappeared.

The absorbed chakra transformed into countless streams of light, like a reversed galaxy, returning to the bodies of every ninja.

The eerie nine-moon blood moon in the sky gradually lost its crimson hue and returned to its bright, clear state.

The ninja world is saved!

……

Uchiha Sō kept his promise, and with a thought, the entrance to the Great Luo Realm unfolded near the moon.

He sent Kaguya, whose power had been greatly weakened (due to the suppression of the Chaos Chains and the release of chakra) and whose expression was complicated, into it, and granted her authority, allowing her to begin attempting to create stars and manage star orbits on the newly born moon of the Great Luo Realm.

The first true "god" of the Heavenly Court—"Kaguya, the Mother of Stars"—has thus returned to her rightful place.

On the lunar surface, Uchiha Madara, who had been drained of his life force by the Divine Tree and was now almost an empty shell, was found by Obito and his companions.

The once all-powerful Six Paths level power has fallen, and even the Rinnegan has temporarily lost its luster, its aura is weak and listless, but the unwillingness and arrogance deep in those eyes still remain.

"Grandpa Ban, how are you feeling?"

Uchiha Elephant approached him with a playful smile.

"Hmph... The victor is king, the loser is villain."

Ban snorted coldly and turned his head away.

"But you... you've kept it well hidden."

"Join the Heavenly Court and become my Minister of War, responsible for external conquests."
