Start with a Zanpakuto and build the strongest Mist Village.

Mizuki Yoru glanced at Black Zetsu with some confusion, then looked at Kaguya Otsutsuki: "Doesn't your unfortunate son know the characteristics of our kind of 'beings'?"

“Mizuna Tsukiyo…” Kaguya’s pure white eyes flashed with intense anger: “Even if you can restrain me, you can’t kill me! I am a pure-blooded Otsutsuki who ate the Chakra Fruit. I am an ageless, immortal, and indestructible being. Do you think that Hagoromo and Hamura, those two bad kids, never thought of killing me, their mother, and taking my place?”

“Indeed, before knowing exactly how many artifacts you left behind, it’s impossible for me to completely kill you in my current state, since you can easily revive yourself using Karma.” Mizuki Yoru shrugged. “Therefore, even if I dig the Ten-Tails out of your body, even if I devour all the chakra in your body, even if I, like your two filial sons, keep you in a dark and sunless seal for thousands of years, I still can’t kill you.”

"Minazukiyo... How dare you..."

A fierce hatred flashed in Princess Kaguya's pure white eyes. Night chuckled softly, but there was no hint of amusement in his gaze.

He shook his head and said earnestly, "Don't say such meaningless things anymore, Kaguya Otsutsuki... You people of the Otsutsuki clan are like this. Even after falling into this situation twice in a row, you still don't repent and can't realize where you went wrong."

"You were able to grow from being Isshiki Otsutsuki's servant to what you are today, even going so far as to turn the tables, which shows that you truly have a heart that refuses to be weak. The power you wield is also completely unmatched; with your power, there is no one in the entire ninja world who can rival you."

"But in the end, you were sealed away for a thousand years by your own son... Ultimately, it's because you were too stupid! In this world, a fool with power can't survive. Even without me, do you think you could escape your two filial sons by relying on your unfortunate child to break free from the seal?"

“A thousand years ago, you were no match for them, let alone someone like you who has just broken free from the seal a thousand years ago?”

As he spoke, Mizuki Yoru's hand landed in front of Kaguya Otsutsuki once again, drawing chakra from Kaguya's body in waves.

Kaguya Otsutsuki let out a painful cry. In just a few breaths, her almost perfect body began to crumble. Then, her entire body suddenly expanded, losing its human form, and transformed into a divine tree that reached the heavens and stood tall on the earth.

The enormous divine tree was deeply rooted in the earth, and Kaguya's will was suppressed deep within it. At the top of the tree, a giant flower split off, and in the center of the flower appeared a blood-red tomoe eye, exactly like the moon eye on Kaguya's forehead.

"You're just a servant anyway, so consider this a beautiful dream of becoming the ruler of the ninja world." Mizuki Yoru said softly, her palm facing the huge canopy of the divine tree, unleashing the power of Takamura no Riki-sama to its fullest extent.

Devour!

The entire earth trembled continuously, and the divine tree seemed to sense the continuous loss of energy within its body, and began to tremble wildly, but under the control of Mizukiyo, it could not stir up too much of a storm.

Streams of chakra were absorbed into Minazuki Yoru's body. The existence of Takamura no Sacred Soul transformed all this energy called 'chakra' into spiritual power, which was then absorbed into Minazuki Yoru's body.

As the chakra was continuously devoured, the towering divine tree eventually began to twist and contort, much like how Obito Uchiha and others had become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki. The entire divine tree merged into Mizuki Yoru's body, becoming a part of his physical form.

As the giant divine tree was swallowed by Minazuki Yoru, a thin figure fell from mid-air, along with a pool of black mud.

The mud writhed, seemingly trying to escape, but in the instant it writhed, it was struck by a holy arrow of destruction that fell from the sky, pinning it to the ground, unable to struggle at all.

"Minazukiyo! You bastard, Minazukiyo!" Black Zetsu's unwilling roar echoed. He never expected that his mother would be defeated like this, and even become the source of Minazukiyo's power.

For Black Zetsu, this was not just a failure, but a collapse of his beliefs!

However, Mizuki Yoru ignored Black Zetsu's howl and walked up to Obito on his own.

As Minazuki Yoru stood before him, Obito's bewildered expression turned into a self-deprecating one: "Are you here to mock me, Minazuki Yoru? The goal I've strived for my entire life is nothing but a joke, just like my life—laughable and pathetic."

When Obito Uchiha was ambushed by Black Zetsu and became the vessel for Kaguya Otsutsuki's resurrection, his mind nearly collapsed in that instant.

All his efforts were ultimately just lies fabricated by others. What nonsense about Infinite Tsukuyomi and the dream world? They were nothing more than means to accumulate chakra.

His purpose in being is simply to perform a clown act.

"Everyone is living out their own life story, and this story may have different ups and downs, but everyone is different."

Mizuki Yoru shook her head and said, "What's truly pitiful and lamentable is not your life, but your disappointment in your own life. Among all the people I've met, you've written your life story beautifully enough, oh pen tip."

Even without the Ten-Tails, Obito did not die immediately. As a Six Paths being, unlike Madara in the original story, he would not die even if the tailed beast left his body.

However, without the immense chakra of the Ten-Tails and without the Eye of the Moon, the almost heaven-and-earth difference caused Obito's condition to plummet to rock bottom.

"Kill me, this ridiculous mess should come to an end."

Obito Uchiha didn't say much, he just closed his eyes and waited for death to come. But unexpectedly, Mizuki Yoru's sword did not fall on him: "What do you mean by this?"

"I just don't want the few Six Paths level combatants in the ninja world to be wasted like this."

Mizuki Yoru said calmly, "After everything that has happened, you should understand who our enemy is... Facing those guys, my strength alone is not enough. I need your strength, oh, Pen Head."

"Don't joke around, Minazuki Yoru! There's no way I'll join your ranks!" Obito Uchiha shouted. "Look around, Minazuki Yoru! Look around! The moon is shattered and crumbled, Kirigakure has been annihilated and wiped out! The culprit behind all this is me!"

Mizuki Yoru shook his head and raised his hand in front of Obito. In a daze, figures materialized from the azure spiritual energy.

With just one glance, Obito Uchiha froze on the spot.

He couldn't be mistaken; the people appearing before him were all former high-ranking members of Kirigakure, such as Mizuki Akira and Terumi Mei. Even the fallen Minato Namikaze and Shisui Uchiha were among them, flashing by in an instant.

Those were their souls! But shouldn't their souls have vanished completely with their death?

Obito Uchiha was somewhat bewildered. Back then, in order to deal with Yoru Minazuki, he had specifically studied the weaknesses and flaws of the Shinigami, and had a considerable understanding of them.

These life forms, created by combining souls with energy, are truly dead once they are in danger or die.

But now, those guys who should have died have reappeared in front of him!

"It seems you don't understand at all."

Mizuki Yoru chuckled lightly: "At my level, life and death have long lost their meaning. It's just a matter of reconstructing those who already possess my power."

"So even if you destroy all of this, it will be meaningless to me... I have always valued talent, and even if you have offended me many times, I am willing to give you a chance, Bitou. I hope you can seize it."

"Of course, you can also choose death, to truly die. After all, running away is the easiest and most convenient way to face things, and you, who have awakened Kamui, are the best at running away, aren't you?"

Obito Uchiha fell silent.

Faced with Mizuki Yoru's veiled attempt to recruit him, he was momentarily at a loss for words.

In the past, all he had in mind was Minazuki Yoru and his own goals, but Minazuki Yoru's gaze was always beyond the heavens, on those extraterrestrial beings.

Even now, Minazuki Yoru remains the same.

Obito Uchiha lowered his head, and the Rinnegan in his eyes no longer held its former arrogance and haughtiness: "What do you want me to do?"

“It’s simple, do what your good ally, Toneri Otsutsuki, did.” Mizuki Yoru said calmly, “However, their original purpose was to guard the Gedo Mazo and monitor the ninja world. Now, I need you to monitor the outside world, to monitor those guys who feed on planets.”

"Whether it's to atone for your past mistakes or to find a special feeling that belongs to you alone, I need you to do this, oh pen. Of course, all of this can only be done after I've dealt with the Sage of Six Paths brothers and Isshiki Otsutsuki. You understand, since they're of the same kind, they're birds of a feather."

Obito Uchiha fell silent. He didn't know what to say, or whether he should agree. But after a moment of inner turmoil, he finally nodded.

"You're right, let's consider it atonement for all the foolish things I've done..."

"Smart move!"

……

"Has Kaguya already entered the resurrection state?"

Having prepared a grand gift for the Six Paths brothers, Isshiki Otsutsuki, who emerged from the Pure Land of the Underworld, sensed the tranquility of the ninja world: "Minazuki Yoru, he's quite a troublesome fellow indeed."

Meanwhile, Madara Uchiha, inside the consciousness space, was somewhat dazed and confused, seemingly lost in thought.

"What are you planning to do next?" After a long silence, Madara Uchiha slowly asked, "Under these circumstances, do you still intend to be an enemy of Mizuki Yoru?"

"You think I'm no match for Minazuki Yoru?"

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki chuckled: "Indeed, Minazuki Yoru is a very interesting fellow. Among the countless, even billions, of inferior beings I have ever seen, he is worthy of being ranked number one."

"But once my 'perfect vessel' is fully mature and I complete my reincarnation, defeating a guy like him will be no problem at all!"

"During that period of time..."

"Of course, I'm here to watch the show."

Otsutsuki Isshiki sneered: "That bitch Kaguya's descendant won't let Mizuki Yoru sit firmly in the position of the god of the ninja world. Their goals are completely conflicting."

Whether it's a moonless night or the Sage of Six Paths, the saying goes, "When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits," and he has already adopted the posture of the fisherman.

But there was one more thing that Otsutsuki Isshiki didn't tell Uchiha Madara.

During that time, besides waiting for his complete resurrection, he also launched a special chakra magnetic field into space the instant he destroyed the Pure Land of the Underworld.

Guided by this magnetic field, the Otsutsuki clan members who are searching for prey in the universe will soon arrive here.

Although he really didn't want to share the cake with the other members of his clan, the threat from Mizuki Yoru made Isshiki quite unsure of himself, even after his perfect resurrection.

After all, besides being incredibly strong himself, that guy has also absorbed Kaguya's power, so his strength will inevitably surge to an extremely exaggerated level.

It's important to know that Kaguya ate a Chakra Fruit back then. If all that power had been absorbed by Mizuki Yoru, he would have grown to an extremely exaggerated level.

Therefore, when dealing with someone like that, you can never be too careful.

Chapter 333 Resurrection from the dead!

Leaving Obito behind was a decision made by Minazuki Yoru after careful consideration.

There are many Six Paths level combatants in the ninja world. His many members, whether it is Terumi Meisui Mugetsu Akira Uzumaki Yumi, Kimimaro Uchiha Hikaru, etc., as long as Yoru revives them, they are all genuine Six Paths level combatants.

However, there wasn't a single member of the Six Paths Realm.

Perhaps Shisui back then, and Nagato, who wandered the ninja world but died at Obito's hands, could be considered half of them?

Minazuki Yoru needs the power of a Six Paths level life form because a Six Paths level life form is not merely a transformation in the level of life; it also has a special connection with other Six Paths level life forms.

Furthermore, Obito once awakened the Eye of the Moon and entered a high level of bloodline limit control. Even though he has fallen from grace, his understanding of 'space-time' remains top-notch.

Waiting for Minazuki to grant him spiritual power and have him stationed on the moon as Earth's first line of defense against the Otsutsuki would undoubtedly be the most suitable course of action.

Of course, Obito's identity is quite sensitive. Although he doesn't mind, the ninja world has become what it is today, and he is undoubtedly responsible for it. In the eyes of the world, Uchiha Obito is undoubtedly the most evil criminal.

Setting it stationed on the moon would spare it from the strange looks of the world, which is a consideration from multiple perspectives.

"I understand."

Obito Uchiha agreed to Yoru Minazuki's arrangement. As a loser, since Yoru Minazuki was willing to give him a chance to atone for his sins, he naturally wouldn't refuse.

But looking at the desolate Hidden Mist Village before him, Obito hesitated, then finally sighed.

"I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, Kirigakure and this world wouldn't have become like this."

He launched the Fourth Shinobi World War, wreaking havoc on the shinobi world, and then razed the entire Hidden Mist Village to the ground. The collapse of the moon brought even greater disaster to the entire shinobi world.

Faced with the Fourth Mizukage, who single-handedly transformed Kirigakure from the Blood Mist Era into the strongest ninja village in the world, Obito Uchiha was momentarily speechless.

“Every growth requires lessons, and every development comes at a price.” Mizuki Yoru shook his head. “Besides, all of this is not irreversible.”

What does it mean that all of this is irreversible?

The next moment, Obito Uchiha's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

Before him, Mizuki slowly raised his hand, and dark spiritual power flowed out from his body, like a dark sun, enveloping the entire Mizukage.

The intensity of this spiritual power was extremely exaggerated. After absorbing Kaguya Otsutsuki's power, Minazuki Yoru's spiritual power had already reached its limit.

That's the limit of bloodline limit, a height that even the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki cannot reach!

With the burst of unparalleled spiritual power, points of light seemed to appear on Mizuki Yoru's body, like stars surrounding the sun.

The stars scattered, their light falling to the ground, and in a trance, they transformed into human figures.

"This is……"

Obito Uchiha looked somewhat dazed.

The spiritual power on those luminous humanoid figures gradually turned into light dust and shattered, revealing their true forms. Who else could they be but the Mist Hidden people who died at his hands?

"I'm already dead, how could this be..."

"Is this aura of spiritual energy from Lord Ye?!"

Is this... heaven?

The first to reveal themselves were Mei Terumi, Yumi Uzumaki, Akira Minazuki, and Yukiko Touna. Behind them were the captains of the Gotei 13, wearing their captain's haori.

Moreover, beams of light and shadow kept appearing, and more and more people were resurrected from them. Even some ordinary people who possessed spiritual power returned to this land.

They looked at their hands with some confusion, and many of them even assumed a fighting stance the moment they were resurrected, their spiritual energy surging.

But soon, as a surge of information flooded their minds, everyone present showed expressions of utter shock and disbelief.

"I never expected...it would turn out like this."

"So it really was Lord Mizukage who made a move! I knew Lord Mizukage wouldn't abandon us!"

"Long live the Mizukage!"

Everyone present quickly received the information in their minds and was utterly shocked by everything that Minazuki Yoru had done.

The invincible Mizukage, on whom they placed their high hopes, truly defeated Uchiha Obito, a living Six Paths who was comparable to the Sage of Six Paths, and even resurrected all of them who had died in battle!

This is not impure resurrection, but a direct resurrection.

Not only the 'Shinigami' in their spirit form, but also the 'Quinness' in their human form were all resurrected.

Legend has it that immortals possess the power to reverse life and death, and now, the myth is truly unfolding here.

They could reverse life and death, and change the spirits of the dead. Their Water Shadows and Moonless Nights had completely reached the level of the former Sage of Six Paths.

No, it's a realm that transcends the Six Paths!
