Chapter 287: My Destiny is in My Hands, Not Heaven's
Chapter 287: My Destiny is in My Hands, Not Heaven's
As he watched Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu depart, "Feather Cloak Black Moon" recalled everything the former had just said.
"The Three Great Ninja Wars, the Battle of the Valley of the Fallen God, the Chunin Exams, the Impure World Reincarnation, and eventually the complete resurrection. Taking Sasuke away and vying for control of the Moon's Eye Plan—my life has certainly been full of twists and turns."
"However, it's unacceptable that I died at the hands of Senju Hashirama during the Battle of the Valley of the Fallen God."
A smirk tugged at the corners of "Feather Cloak Black Moon's" lips.
After all, in this world, Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara were both his vanquished foes.
Defeat?
It was a concept he had never experienced.
"But, as Uchiha Obito said, in my second life, my strength should have grown immensely. Not only did I defeat Pain, but I also killed the Great Toad Sage, and even Naruto is said to have perished. With such achievements, relying solely on my own power is indeed risky."
The Ten-Tails!
Only by becoming the jinchuriki of the Ten-Tails would he have the greatest chance of reclaiming his true body and escaping the confined Moon Reading world.
My destiny is in my hands, not heaven's!
"I, Feather Cloak Black Moon, refuse to submit to a predetermined fate!"
With determination in his eyes, "Feather Cloak Black Moon" faced the direction of the Feather Cloak Clan.
Feather Cloak Clan Lands.
A grand harem war that was about to erupt was forcibly suppressed by Feather Cloak Black Moon's intervention.
After all, it would create a terrible impression if they fought in full view of everyone.
However, when Feather Cloak Black Moon returned to the clan leader's residence, he discovered that the battle was far from over. Instead, as more people joined, it intensified.
Feather Cloak Black Moon sat in the seat of honor, astonished as more and more women joined the camps of Senju Chiaki and Uchiha Rin.
Among these women of varied charm and status, one with fiery red hair stood out as she spoke a great deal without even pausing for breath—clearly a trait inherited from Uzumaki; another with entirely white eyes and sophisticated attire was undoubtedly from the Hyuga clan; and the one with long white hair and two red dots on her forehead was Higurashi.
There was also the delicate-looking member of the Yuki clan; Nara, subtly fanning the flames from the sidelines; and Yamanaka, with her brilliant golden hair, writing something on the outer periphery.
Hmm? Even Akimichi has sneaked in?
Thankfully, it wasn't the chubby one; it was the type who would be full-figured during full moon.
Listening to the group of women before him bickering, Feather Cloak Black Moon felt that it was more challenging than fighting a big battle.
He searched for Haretsu among the crowd and found her standing next to a woman with a golden ponytail and the Yamanaka clan emblem on her sleeve.
The latter was holding a pen and a book, writing something.
Haretsu was beside her, offering suggestions.
Feather Cloak Black Moon leaned in to listen; they seemed to be writing about his life and daily routines.
He didn't pay it much mind and was about to put an end to the farce unfolding before him.
However, the arrival of a woman caused the room to fall silent, and in an instant, everyone present was in harmony.
Feather Cloak Black Moon looked towards the tall, imposing woman striding towards him, a glint of nostalgia in his eyes.
He knew her.
Feather Cloak Ruri.
If things had gone as expected back then, she would have been his wife.
Although he wasn't particularly smitten with her, among the women of the Feather Cloak Clan of the same age, none could surpass her.
Whether he truly loved her or not, it was his necessary responsibility as the clan leader.
But, in the end, the unexpected happened.
"What's with all this commotion? Have you no decorum?"
At that moment, Feather Cloak Ruri, who originated from the Feather Cloak Clan and was destined to become Feather Cloak Black Moon's main wife, arrived at the scene. She coldly swept her gaze over all the women present and chastised them.
Looking at Feather Cloak Ruri, who was now close by, Feather Cloak Black Moon pushed the memories that surfaced from the depths of his heart back down. With a focused gaze, he replied in a deep voice, "Yes, some situations have arisen."
Feather Cloak Ruri was all business as she asked, "Do you need me, or rather, all of the ninja world to do something?"
Feather Cloak Black Moon nodded.
Having observed a lot along his journey, he was well aware that the Feather Cloak Clan's prestige was unmatched in the current ninja world, and they were essentially the uncrowned kings.
With a single order from him, not only the Feather Cloak Clan but also the Senju, Uchiha, Uzumaki, Hyuga, and other ninja clans would follow his command without hesitation.
Even powerful ninjas like Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara would heed his orders.
That was why each clan was vying to send their most outstanding women to Feather Cloak Black Moon's side.
Of course, ninja traditions couldn't be disregarded.
For example, rewards were still expected for every mission.
But for the Feather Cloak Clan, which dominated the ninja world and received untold amounts of tributes from feudal lords and nobles every year, such rewards were trivial.
Feather Cloak Black Moon didn't stand on ceremony and gave his orders directly:
"The entire ninja world is to hunt down these two. A hefty reward will be given to anyone who provides useful information!"
As Feather Cloak Black Moon spoke, he stomped his foot, and two clumps of dirt rose from the ground, taking the forms of Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu.
Feather Cloak Ruri didn't question his motives and nodded decisively.
"There's one more thing. Inform Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Madara, Uzumaki Naruto, and Higurashi Ryunosuke to drop whatever they're doing and immediately set out to capture all the tailed beasts roaming the ninja world!"
The individuals Feather Cloak Black Moon mentioned were all people he knew well and were strong enough to capture the tailed beasts.
Just as "Feather Cloak Black Moon" knew himself well, he also knew "Feather Cloak Black Moon" intimately.
Regardless of the other's current situation, Feather Cloak Black Moon had to be prepared.
Moreover, he also had to guard against the possibility of Uchiha Obito collecting the tailed beasts and becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki here.
Now that he held great power, it was only natural for him to utilize all the resources at his disposal.
Feather Cloak Ruri raised no objections and didn't inquire about Feather Cloak Black Moon's sudden interest in capturing the tailed beasts.
Even if he just wanted to raise them as pets for his amusement, it was of no consequence.
As long as it was a task assigned by Feather Cloak Black Moon, the entire ninja world would strive to complete it.
As for the power of the tailed beasts...
In the face of the united might of the ninja world, led by the Feather Cloak Clan, they were insignificant.
Unlike other women who wished to spend more time with Feather Cloak Black Moon, Feather Cloak Ruri, who was like Feather Cloak Black Moon in both the real world and here, always put responsibility before emotions. She didn't waste any time and turned to leave, ready to carry out Feather Cloak Black Moon's two commands.
Feather Cloak Black Moon watched the departing figure of Feather Cloak Ruri, her back always straight and her strides purposeful, just as he remembered her.
He had been slightly puzzled, as while he was undoubtedly Feather Cloak Black Moon, he knew that his experiences in this world differed from those of the "Feather Cloak Black Moon" here.
It was normal for others not to notice any difference.
However, he had expected that Haretsu, having spent so much time with him, would sense something amiss. Yet, she showed no signs of suspicion.
Feather Cloak Black Moon thought about it for a moment and seemed to understand.
