Then there was only one explanation.
Earth had another high-level combatant.
But…
was that really possible?
For a ti, the higher-ups of the Ōtsutsuki main family fell silent.
Momoshiki's words had struck them like thunder from a clear sky. The more they thought about it, the more uneasy they beca.
At first, they had assud Kaguya had grown strong enough to act recklessly again.
But on closer thought, with Kinshiki and Urashiki's abilities, even if they could not defeat Kaguya, escaping should not have been difficult.
And yet—
both of them had been annihilated.
That was the unsettling part.
If Kaguya was not the one who killed them, then who did?
Could Earth truly be hiding so unknown high-level combatant strong enough to kill both Kinshiki and Urashiki?
The possibility left the Ōtsutsuki elders speechless.
"Hmph. Momoshiki, what exactly are you trying to say?"
After a long silence, one of the higher-ranking elders took a breath and asked coldly,
"If Kaguya wasn't the one who acted, then who else could it be?"
"Who knows?"
Momoshiki shrugged, unconcerned.
"Kinshiki and Urashiki were useless. They couldn't even send back basic intelligence before dying."
"They were trash among trash."
Her tone sharpened as she continued,
"Whether it was Kaguya or soone else, I'll make whoever dared challenge the Ōtsutsuki main family pay in blood."
"I'll make them understand that the authority of the Ōtsutsuki main family cannot be violated."
Whoosh.
The mont she finished speaking, space rippled.
Momoshiki vanished from the eting hall.
It had the distinct feeling of soone making a grand declaration and leaving before anyone could respond.
And in truth, that was exactly what it was.
Momoshiki had long been displeased with the increasingly rotten and rigid elders of the main family. After hearing them use Kinshiki and Urashiki's deaths to pressure her, her anger had only grown.
To put it bluntly—
Kinshiki and Urashiki had died for the main family's interests.
After all these years, even if they had no great achievents, they had at least done their work.
The elders could have said one decent thing.
Instead, not a single human word ca out of their mouths.
So Momoshiki had used the mont to erupt.
If they wanted to call Kinshiki and Urashiki trash, then fine.
She would follow that line and make a righteous display of fury.
As for Earth—
Momoshiki was extrely confident.
Even if soone there had killed Kinshiki and Urashiki, so what?
Once she reached Earth, she would find an opportunity to beco invincible.
At that ti, whoever stood before her would pay.
"This…"
Watching Momoshiki disappear, one of the higher-ranking elders frowned slightly before quickly relaxing again.
With his intelligence, he naturally understood what Momoshiki was planning.
But as a superior looking down on a useful dog, he could still tolerate this level of arrogance.
In short—
let Momoshiki feel proud for now.
"Hmph. Momoshiki really is growing more arrogant."
"If she's so confident, then we'll wait here for her good news."
"Even Kinshiki and Urashiki died. I'd like to see what this Momoshiki can actually do."
"Then we wait."
The elders exchanged glances, each seeing the sa mocking amusent in the others' eyes.
They understood Momoshiki's thoughts well enough.
But since she had chosen to go to Earth, they would simply watch.
They wanted to see how far her arrogance could carry her.
"eting dismissed."
At that mont, one of the higher-ranking elders rose and rubbed his forehead, then ordered indifferently,
"With Momoshiki's strength, even if she cannot win, she should at least be able to send back information."
"All we need to do is wait."
At the sa ti, in a secret base hidden sowhere in the shinobi world—
Madara, the masked Obito, Black Zetsu, and White Zetsu had all fallen silent.
"The invaders' auras vanished. Only the Fifth Hokage's aura remains."
"If I sensed correctly, Uchiha Ren has already beco the legendary Ten-Tails jinchūriki."
"Why is there another Ten-Tails? And why was it revived by him?"
"Ren's montum is already complete. What are we supposed to do now?"
One shocked voice after another broke the silence.
Obito, Black Zetsu, and White Zetsu tried to suppress the unease in their hearts, but their faces still betrayed them.
No matter how they looked at it, the situation had already exceeded their expectations.
The shinobi world had slipped entirely beyond their control.
Everything was now moving at Uchiha Ren's pace.
And with the Ten-Tails revived on top of that—
the shinobi world had unknowingly entered a nightmare.
