Starting with Naruto, I'll become stronger through my own efforts.

Chapter 340 Ancient Ghosts and the Otsutsuki on the Moon

"How many flights of stairs do you have to carry a bag of rice up? (Feel the pain!)"

"Carrying a bag of rice up to the second floor (think about how painful that is)!"

"A bag of rice, oh more! (Accept the suffering!)"

"I'll wash this whole bag of rice (you understand the pain)!"

"And that pile of black tiles, wakola (unable to understand the true meaning of peace)!"

"Every grain of soil must be present (from now on)!"

"Who's going to give you a bag of rice (to make the world feel pain)!"

Shinra Tensei

Nagato pointed his finger at the Angkor Fortress in the sky, and the Ten-Tails behind him simultaneously stretched out a hand, pointing in the same direction.

Thanks to the synergy of the Ten-Tails, Nagato was able to better control the technique [Shinra Tensei]. Therefore, this time the repulsive force did not erupt from Nagato's body, but from the Angkor Fortress location he was pointing to.

As the white shockwave swept across, Angkor Fortress crumbled into tiny fragments, like rice cakes hit by a bowling ball. Head-sized pebbles were even sent flying dozens of kilometers away.

The ninja and Angkor Fortress were both reduced to dust by this cataclysmic ninjutsu.

With just one strike, the remnants of the Sky Ninja Village were almost completely wiped out. Only Shennong survived, thanks to the protection of the Zero-Tails at the core of the fortress.

When facing this traitor, Nagato was not as "gentle" as he was when facing Konoha in the other timeline, nor was his body as fragile.

Nagato raised his hand again. This time, since the audience of the Sky Ninja had disappeared, he didn't even recite the "Prayer of Pain" and directly activated the technique.

Shinra Tensei

Three consecutive bursts of repulsive force squeezed Shennong and Zero Tail into the center of the repulsive force from three angles, maximizing the power of the repulsive force.

Shennong disappeared from the ninja world just like that, without leaving a trace.

Zero Tail was completely destroyed, shattering into an emotional storm that struggled for a few seconds before disappearing completely.

The power of the Ten-Tails was fully displayed, and the terrifying chakra fluctuations even spread throughout the entire ninja world, making the Allied Shinobi Forces, who had returned to Konoha Village, feel apprehensive.

The Ten-Tails' massive chakra surge alarmed not only Konoha Village, but also a monster roaming the ninja world.

Jigen stopped and closed his eyes to carefully sense the fluctuations of chakra. After a moment, he raised his head with surprise.

"The Divine Tree has been revived, but Kaguya's chakra has not returned; she is still sealed."

"If I can seize the Divine Tree and devour it, I will gain enough chakra to completely repair this damaged body and be fully resurrected."

"Is this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, or a trap set for me by that brat Hagoromo Otsutsuki?"

"Don't rush, I need to take another look."

"I've waited for thousands of years, so I still have the patience to wait a little longer."

Cixian kept trying to encourage and comfort himself, but he was still restless and acted like a monster who had lived for thousands of years.

There was nothing he could do; his time was running out.

Jigen was essentially Isshiki Otsutsuki, but he was ambushed by Kaguya Otsutsuki and lost half of his body.

Afterwards, Otsutsuki Isshiki narrowly escaped and parasitized Jigen's body in a wedge-like manner. However, due to the extreme weakness of both himself and Jigen, he found himself in a desperate predicament.

Isshiki Otsutsuki was unable to leave Jigen's body again, and Jigen's aging and dying body could not support his resurrection; instead, it became his prison.

He eked out a living for thousands of years without finding a chance to escape his predicament.

Even though Kaguya Otsutsuki was betrayed by her son and sealed on the moon, Isshiki Otsutsuki could only watch and do nothing.

Having occupied Jigen's body for too long, even though Otsutsuki Isshiki erased Jigen's self, he was still affected by the body and began to identify as Jigen.

Isshiki Otsutsuki's opportunity came a hundred years ago. He completely analyzed the secrets of the human body and the rituals of the gods in the ninja world, and designed a way to sacrifice a parasite to the Ten-Tails in exchange for energy to transfer the Karma into a new "vessel".

This "vessel" must perfectly match the chakra of Isshiki Otsutsuki. Not only must it be carefully selected, but its genes and development process must also be intervened before birth.

This requires massive resources to research human body modification techniques.

So Jigen reorganized the humans under his control into the Kara organization and began to acquire money and resources by selling electronic products.

Unfortunately, Konoha, led by the Fifth Hokage, took advantage of its manpower and financial resources to launch a counterattack against the Kara organization.

If the Shell organization releases a product, Konoha will release an even better imitation within a month at most, and their production volume will completely surpass that of the Shell organization.

Konoha Village, through the Uchiha clan's business channels, sold its products, which were a month late, to the entire ninja world, dominating the entire market and preventing the Kara organization from earning a single penny.

For some reason, Cixian saw a fat, black-and-white bird wearing a red scarf, which gave him a ferocious smile, then opened its mouth full of fleshy spines and swallowed him whole.

The lack of funding plunged the Shell organization into dire straits, making the research and development of human body modification technology extremely difficult.

As Cixian felt his body decaying, his fear of death grew stronger day by day. He even went so far as to travel around in public to personally collect resources and money to promote this life-or-death research.

However, Konoha Village's control over the ninja world is getting stronger and stronger. Perhaps the five great ninja villages, which are high and mighty, have not felt it directly yet, but secretive organizations like Kara are feeling very uncomfortable.

As Cixian struggled to gather money and resources, his despair grew ever stronger.

Therefore, when he sensed the divine tree aura belonging to Kaguya Otsutsuki, he unusually fell into a dilemma.

But ultimately, under the threat of death, Jigen changed all his plans and headed towards the Land of Iron.

At this moment, Jigen's biggest regret was that he didn't have the ability to teleport, so he couldn't just take a step and walk right up to the Ten-Tails, nor could he snatch the Ten-Tails and escape in one step.

He must defeat the ninja who resurrected the Ten-Tails, as well as other monsters who might covet the Ten-Tails, before he can possess it.

By the way, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, who might be hiding in the Pure Land, might also make an appearance. He's a ruthless character who sealed away his own mother.

Cixian sighed, "This time, to survive, we have to fight with all our might, fight with all our might!"

His speed increased, and with each step he could travel several kilometers. His whole body turned into a phantom, drifting northward like a ghost.

About half an hour after the ninjas of Konoha Village sensed the Ten-Tails' chakra fluctuations, Toneri Otsutsuki on the moon also sensed this terrifying chakra.

At this time, the Otsutsuki clan on the moon had declined to the extreme, with only Toneri remaining alive. However, the giant Tensei eyes contained all his blood relatives and ancestors.

Despite being born blind without eyeballs, Otsutsuki Toneri was able to communicate with the giant Tenseigan and utilize its power.

It can even "see" everything that the Reincarnation Eye sees.

Upon sensing the Ten-Tails' chakra fluctuations, Toneri Otsutsuki remembered what the Grand Elder had once said: "Throw away the Gedo Mazo!"

Loss incident.

He immediately activated his giant Reincarnation Eye and looked towards the ninja world. Following the fluctuations of chakra, he locked onto the Land of Iron and saw the Ten-Tails baring its fangs and claws in a mountain range that had been blown beyond recognition.

As Shiren sensed the monster, which was even stronger than the giant Tenseigan beside him, a slight smile appeared on his lips: "Heh, this damned thief is really bold."

"Could it be that because they resurrected the Gedo Mazo as the Ten-Tails, they think they're invincible and no longer respect the Otsutsuki clan?"

"Do you think you're Kaguya Otsutsuki?"

Otsutsuki Toneri opened his hand and grabbed towards the direction of the ninja world, and the giant Tenseigan beside him shone with a dazzling blue light.

The terrifying power of the Tenseigan instantly traversed hundreds of thousands of kilometers of void. After reaching the atmosphere, it began to slow down, but it still pounced on the Ten-Tails with incredible speed, enveloping it in the power of the Tenseigan.

However, the Tenseigan's power only lasted for a moment before a power of the same rank erupted from the Ten-Tails, dispersing the Tenseigan's power.

Otsutsuki Toneri, astonished by the power of this eye, asked the spirit of his ancestor, "What is this eye power that can rival the Tenseigan?"

A moment later, he got the answer.

"The Rinnegan, the Rinnegan of the Sage of Six Paths. No wonder this thief was able to summon the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path decades ago."

Otsutsuki Toneri stood up and walked towards the deepest part of the castle, where the secret Earth-Moon Passage to the Ninja World was located.

The reason I just lost to the Rinnegan wasn't because the giant Tenseigan's power was weak, but because the power was too dispersed due to the distance of hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

Once he enters the ninja world and uses himself as a transit point to connect with the giant Tenseigan, he will naturally be able to re-condense his eye power and easily defeat his enemies.

Having utterly crushed Shennong, Nagato, who was waiting for the Akatsuki to reunite, looked up at the sky. He had just sensed an unfamiliar eye power descending from the heavens.

This eye power can not only merge with the Ten-Tails, but can even drag the Ten-Tails into the air.

However, through years of continuous chakra input, he had already transformed the Ten-Tails into his own essence, which even contained a large amount of Rinnegan power.

This ocular power, whose quality was no less than that of the Rinnegan, was simply not enough to shake him. In addition, the concentration of this ocular power was not enough, and he easily dispelled it.

However, this sudden attack still made Nagato feel nervous, because it was the first time he had felt such high-quality eye power, which seemed to be another "god" who was on par with him.

The sense of threat posed by this mysterious guy was even stronger than that of the Fifth Hokage, Natsume!

Nagato couldn't help but feel nervous; he had a premonition that a fierce battle was about to begin.

The power of the Reincarnation Eye, which descended from the sky, became loose due to the great distance. Because of this looseness, it clashed with the omnipresent natural energy, forming a blue pillar of light hundreds of kilometers wide between heaven and earth.

However, the brightness of this beam of light was so faint that it was impossible for ninjas to see it; only those who could be described as monsters could see it.

For example, Jigen is rushing on his way; Madara Uchiha is waiting for the last few hours for his Rinnegan to mature; Black Zetsu is preparing to ambush Nagato; and the Fifth Hokage, Natsusa, is in Konoha Village thousands of kilometers away.

Like Nagato, Madara Uchiha did not understand the Tenseigan, but he felt deeply uneasy and relied on his intuition to foresee the impending crisis.

Black Zetsu certainly knew about Hamura Otsutsuki and the Tenseigan. His eyes widened, but his pupils shrank to the size of pinpoints.

"Damn Shennong, he used the fortress's main cannon to blow up the cave, forcing Nagato to use all his strength to destroy the flying fortress. The Ten-Tails' chakra fluctuations alarmed Hamura's descendants."

"That's not right. When Madara Uchiha summoned the Gedo Mazo before, they didn't react at all. Why did they attack immediately this time?"

"Now that they've launched an attack, and it's a Tenseigan eye attack at that, they won't just use this one move."

"Yes, we need to be careful about the sneak attack on Nagato. We can't control him the moment he's fully matured. We still need to rely on him to defend against Hamura's descendants."

Jigen also saw the beam of light from the Reincarnation Eye. He didn't stop walking, but his mouth opened in surprise.

"The Tenseigan? This is the Tenseigan! How can it possess the power of the Tenseigan?"

"The Tenseigan attacked right where the Ten-Tails was located—hmm, and the counterattack was actually from the Rinnegan's power?"

"The ninja world is truly a strange place. Not only can it give birth to the rare Rinnegan, but it can also nurture the Tenseigan, which might not appear for thousands of years. Is this the treasure land of the Otsutsuki clan?"

"Hehehe, hahaha, my luck has finally turned around! Not only will I get the Ten-Tails, but I'll also get the Rinnegan and Tenseigan! Hahaha, what a great harvest!"

Cixian burst into laughter, his face contorted as if he were a deflated inflatable doll, looking like he should be thrown away.

But his speed increased, and black markings appeared on his face, making him look even more eerie and terrifying.

"Once I obtain these treasures, not only will I be able to recover my physical strength and power in a short time, but also..."

But the most delighted of all the monsters was Xia Zuo, who finally saw the living power of the Reincarnation Eye.

"So this is the Tenseigan. I've finally seen it."

Xia Zuo sighed and opened his black eyes. He blinked and awakened the Byakugan with the highest purity. Then, all the chakra in his body surged forth.

Chakra stimulates specific areas of the brain, extracting special Yin Release chakra, which is then mixed with a specific proportion of Yang Release chakra and poured into the eyes at a specific speed.

As the yin and yang chakra was poured in, Xia Zuo's Byakugan began to glow, and the meridians around his eyes gradually calmed down.

Gradually, the color of the white light in the eyes changed, from a pure milky white to a mesmerizing azure blue.

Xia Zuo's white eyes were also covered with a layer of dazzling blue light, which continuously seeped into the depths of his eyes, changing their structure.

At the same time, the blue light also penetrated through his eyes and into his body, changing Xia Zuo's physical origins.

As Xia Zuo sensed the subtle changes in his body, he couldn't help but sigh: It turns out that changing the Tenseigan is so much more difficult than changing the Rinnegan.
