At night, the moon is very visible. So when it splits into two halves, the change can be noticed by anyone paying attention across the ninja world.

Some are disturbed. Some are corrupted. Others remain indifferent.

All sentient beings respond differently.

On the moon, Black Zetsu arranged for Uchiha Madara to return to the ninja world, and then make a return trip to the moon.

In this back-and-forth, he brought along the sealing scroll.

The sealing scroll is a type of technique originating from the Uzumaki clan's deep sealing arts.

One of the many derived applications is this item-sealing method.

It does not require deep mastery of sealing techniques. With only a small amount of chakra, one can seal a large number of objects directly into the scroll and retrieve them instantly when needed.

Madara is now sealing up all the structures and properties related to the Han lineage village on the moon.

He used his Wheel Tomb: Border Jail for a large-scale sealing operation.

He summoned four invisible clones and ordered them to begin sealing everything simultaneously.

It was exhausting work.

Yet, Uchiha Madara acknowledged the logic behind Black Zetsu's method.

So far, they had only found the strength of Hamura's descendant who held the Tenseigan, but not the brother of the Sage of Six Paths himself. That meant they needed to continue searching.

After all...

The Tenseigan is only a bloodline evolution passed down from Hamura, the Sage of Six Paths' younger brother. But the true power lies in the ancestry.

As common knowledge goes in the ninja world, it was the Sage of Six Paths who spread chakra and birthed the era of ninjas.

Since Hamura was his younger brother, it stands to reason his hidden strength couldn't be weak.

Thus, Uchiha Madara kept searching.

But in the meantime, the Han lineage that had been developing for over a thousand years had created numerous puppets and structures, including the puppet Shiren once used to make Hinata's wedding dress. Everything was sealed.

Even the castle Shiren had lived in—Madara sealed that too.

That included the giant Tenseigan resting within the castle.

Was the massive Tenseigan not to be used?

It could be.

So Madara seized both the castle and the massive Tenseigan outright.

This warranted an all-out sealing operation.

"Sealing Technique – Receipt."

Uchiha Madara, who once stood shoulder to shoulder with Senju Hashirama, showed his mastery even of what some consider scrap ninjutsu.

Madara completed the process using three scrolls.

But as he was about to store the last one, Black Zetsu raised his hand.

"It's better that I keep the scroll containing the giant Tenseigan," he said. "It's much safer with me than with you."

Without waiting, Black Zetsu reached out toward Madara, clearly demanding the scroll.

Uchiha Madara said nothing.

He thought for a moment.

Considering that he had already died, been revived through Edo Tensei, then revived completely again—things hadn't gone as originally planned.

Having died multiple times, he wasn't entirely sure he wouldn't die again.

If his possessions fell into someone else's hands—especially Tobirama—it would be a huge loss.

So maybe it was indeed safer to entrust Black Zetsu with the important items.

Madara handed over the brown-covered scroll containing the giant Tenseigan.

Black Zetsu's method was rather unsettling—it opened its mouth and directly swallowed the scroll.

Uchiha Madara said nothing.

But inside, his thoughts stirred with excitement.

"Then there's nothing else to worry about on the moon," he said.

"Yes. Start the demolition… no, the dissection," replied Black Zetsu.

"If we can't find the seal, then coming to the moon would yield too little in return."

That sentence drove Uchiha Madara forward.

Yes.

He had sent Black Zetsu here, then made the trip himself, going up and down repeatedly. That had cost considerable energy.

He couldn't walk away empty-handed.

Then—

"Ahh—"

Uchiha Madara activated his gigantic Susanoo, wielding its massive tachi, and began cutting through the moon like a watermelon.

Black Zetsu watched him quietly.

Uchiha Madara had incredible energy.

But unfortunately, it was all for nothing.

Black Zetsu watched him, calm as ever.

While waiting for Madara to recover his chakra and return to the ninja world, he had been moving back and forth through the cracked moon.

And what did he find?

Nothing.

Yet from the beginning—when Madara first cut the moon—there had been interference from the seal.

In other words... it confirmed the second possibility Black Zetsu had suspected.

The seal binding Kaguya had already been undone. Her body had escaped the moon by taking the form of Kitahara Hitoshi's white rabbit.

This was the golden cicada escape.

Everything they had done on the moon once again proved pointless.

Still, Black Zetsu had gathered all this information, while Madara remained unaware—just another chess piece.

And so the situation became a bizarre spectacle.

The night passed. Uchiha Madara's 250-meter-tall Susanoo was still slashing the moon.

"Ahh…"

"Still nothing…"

"But…"

"This moon is really massive."

Uchiha Madara couldn't find any hidden objects, and figured he simply hadn't cut deeply or precisely enough—so he continued cutting.

But it was all futile.

Meanwhile, while Madara continued fruitlessly slicing up the moon, the ninja world welcomed a new day.

Beep.

Today's ninja descendants' youth chat group opened.

Senju Hashirama. Senju Tobirama. Kakashi. Chiyo Granny. Welcome to group chat time.

Big Pillar Hanhan: Is it finally time?

Senju Tobirama:

Senju Tobirama: Brother, there's something you need to know.

Big Pillar Hanhan: Huh?

Senju Tobirama: Uchiha Madara went to the moon yesterday.

Big Pillar Hanhan: What?

Namikaze Minato: What?

Grandma Chiyo: Madara flew to the moon?

Tobirama's Record: My brother flew to the moon?

Senju Tobirama: Silence, you two.

Senju Tobirama: Here's the situation. After yesterday's incident with Shiren ended, Kitahara Hitoshi and I went to the coastline of Cloud Village to mark the Flying Thunder God coordinates.

Senju Tobirama: While we were at it, we made the mark for the Fourth Hokage as well.

Namikaze Minato: Huh? My mark too?

Fourth Raikage Ai: What are you still doing in my village? Haven't you caused enough trouble?

Senju Tobirama:

Senju Tobirama: Kitahara said that if we encounter someone like Shiren again, or if we face a sudden attack, having access to Flying Thunder God will save Konoha from something like a Tailed Beast Bomb or Truth-Seeking Ball disaster.

Senju Tobirama: We've tested Flying Thunder God extensively.

Senju Tobirama: Not only can it be used for personal travel, but it can also transport others.

Senju Tobirama: So naturally, we can redirect attacks as well.

Kurama: That means a Tailed Beast Bomb or even multiple attacks can be redirected?

Senju Tobirama: Exactly. Tailed Beast Bombs have a delay before they detonate. So in theory, yes, they can be redirected.

Namikaze Minato: That's true.

Big Pillar Hanhan: That's amazing. Our village is safer now.

Senju Tobirama: Yes.

Fourth Raikage-Ai: …Where is it safe? You are all teleported to my Cloud Shinobi Village sphere of influence!

Fourth Raikage-Ai: How can you do this?

Senju Tobirama: Yesterday, those of you who wanted to pray for the destruction of the ninja world, please shut up.

Fourth Raikage-Ai: After Tobirama said this, the Fourth Raikage really kept silent. Because... he suddenly thought that Ōtsutsuki had already arrived at Konoha, and he couldn't do anything, so what about him and his father now? Cloud Shinobi Village… This is really dead.

Tobirama's record: So, Senju Tobirama, don't say these boring words.

Tobirama's record: Quickly tell me about my big brother.

Senju Tobirama:

Tobirama's record: You say it!

Senju Tobirama: We saw Uchiha Madara fly to the moon last night when we were doing the Flying Thunder God marker, and he cut the moon... using an oversized Susanoo.

Big Pillar Hanhan: Did you cut the moon open?

Senju Tobirama: Yes, that guy should have actually gotten Mount Myōboku's celestial spell.

Senju Tobirama: So, he may be directly resurrected.

Senju Tobirama: The strength probably increased, and as a result, he flew to the moon, and then split the moon.

Big Pillar Hanhan: The moon?

Senju Tobirama: Hmm.

Senju Tobirama: But it's a bit strange, I don't know what he thought, he directly split the moon into N halves.

Namikaze Minato: Then if the moon disappears, isn't it night in the ninja world...

Fifth Mizukage- Terumi Mei: Because we now have a bigger moon.

Namikaze Minato: A bigger moon?

Cowardly as a Mouse-Onogi: It turned out to be the moon created by Uchiha Madara...

Cowardly as a Mouse-Onogi: Uh… you guys continue to chat.

Fifth Mizukage- Terumi Mei: Uchiha Madara was cutting the moon, but he cut a lot of shares, and then was absorbed by the Planetary Devastation made by Kitahara-kun on the side.

Senju Tobirama: Yes.

Senju Tobirama: Uchiha Madara cut the moon into very small pieces, and Kitahara-kun yesterday sealed the Planetary Devastation of Shiren and flew to the vicinity of the moon, sucking away the debris of the surrounding moon.

Namikaze Minato: That's right.

Namikaze Minato: Then everything is under control.

Namikaze Minato: So, what is Uchiha Madara going to do?

Senju Tobirama: I don't know. What Uchiha Madara is doing, ordinary people don't know. But for Mount Myōboku...

Ancestor— "What's next for our Mount Myōboku development?"

"Little Jiraiya has already bid us farewell." Fukasaku Toad is begging to see Great Toad Sage.

The roof of the temple of the Great Toad Sage was lifted by Uchiha Madara, so the wind leaked everywhere, so the toads took the Great Toad Sage to their residence.

The Great Toad Sage opens its eyes from the throne. There seemed to be some sweat on its forehead.

"Things are messed up!" Great Toad Sage said. "I originally wanted to sleep and see if I could have a precognition dream…"

"The dream I had just now was terrifying.

"I dreamed of my old friend... aka Sage of Six Paths."

"He actually invited me to experience Planetary Devastation together."

"It was obviously his descendants who were unfilial, and he invited me to Planetary Devastation!"

"The old man really misread him!" Great Toad Sage said.

"So this is…?"

Immortal Fukasaku blinked.

"It's not a precognitive dream, maybe it's just a nightmare," Great Toad Sage said.

Then added, "Speaking of – come on, what did you report? Little Jiraiya wants to break away from us?"

"Yes. He seems to feel that he has not found the Child of Destiny for fifty years, and then gave up, preparing to give back his last enthusiasm to Konoha."

"So he is going back to Konoha to teach." Immortal Fukasaku said.

Great Toad Sage: "Little Jiraiya still doesn't understand."

"The Child of Destiny exists. He brought Minato here before… I almost made a mistake, too."

(How is Zhao?)

"But Minato has children…"

"Then…" Immortal Zhima reacted. "Then Destiny Child…"

"Yes."

"So Jiraiya's return to Konoha is actually in line with destiny's guidance."

"The future of the ninja world, doesn't this still exist?"

"As long as Jiraiya goes back to guide—"

"Ancestor!"

However, at this time, a toad ran in.

"Why are you all jumping up and down?" Great Toad Sage felt suffocated since seeing Uchiha Madara coming. "Could it be that Uchiha Madara is here again?"

"Impossible. He obviously got the magic spell!"

And the toad who ran in quickly said, "No, it's your old friend who came here."

"What other friends do I have?"

The Great Toad Sage is simply irritated.

But the surrounding air instantly darkened.

And a dry and old figure floated in directly.

This figure has brown hair and is wearing a white coat.

His coat is unique, with six black Tomoe-like patterns on the front of his chest. And there is a red-colored swirl logo on the back.

Further down is the nine-square arrangement Tomoe, which is different from the clothing point of view.

Not only that.

His skin was pale and bluish.

There is a pair of old horns on its head.

Because this is Sage of Six Paths.

Aged Sage of Six Paths.

Sage of Six Paths!?!

The toads around were stunned and speechless.

"No!" Great Toad Sage was also taken aback.

"Toad Maru." But this figure called out the name of Great Toad Sage directly. "Long time no see."

"…"

"How is this going?"

"I feel the seal of Planetary Devastation being lifted…"
