Chapter 794: Lunar Space!
Chapter 794: Lunar Space!
"Not on my watch!"
Hyuuga Tsukimi instinctively activated the All-Creation Jutsu, but for some reason, her reaction was a beat too slow, allowing the black shadow to dodge by skimming the ground and slipping into the water.
Just because Tsukimi missed her chance didn't mean the others were too late to stop it.
Quan!
Her eyes swiftly transformed into a fine, petal-like shape, entering the Kaleidoscope state.
Ogusu-no-Mikoto!
She immediately unleashed her Kaleidoscope ability, enhancing her speed to the point where she appeared before the shadow in an instant.
Swish!
The Kusanagi Sword slashed out.
But it was as if she had slashed at a shadow, allowing it to pass right through the blade.
However, this didn't mean the shadow could successfully enter the water.
A kunai flew towards it.
Smack!
The kunai was then caught mid-air by a pale left hand.
Mino, with her golden hair and blue eyes, suddenly appeared, her right hand rapidly spinning the Rasengan, which slammed down heavily.
Boom!
Even the sturdy rock surface was swallowed up by the Rasengan.
Yet, the black shadow seemed unaffected, slipping through it without hindrance, leaving Mino with a disbelieving expression.
She had never imagined that her Rasengan would deal no damage.
In her previous one-on-one battle with Kimamaro, he had managed to withstand her attacks but still sustained injuries.
But now, there was no effect at all, causing her to doubt whether her recent training had been in vain.
Tang Ping instantly understood the reason and had no intention of making a move.
Knowing the identity of their opponent, he was aware that regular attacks would be useless.
Only sealing jutsu, senjutsu, Yin-Yang Six Paths, or spatial abilities would be effective against it.
The reason was simple; this black shadow was a familiar face and someone he deeply feared.
Kurozetsu!
The Shinobi LYB, the man behind Uchiha Sasuke.
In the original storyline, most of the Shinobi world's tragedies were caused by Kurozetsu's obsession with resurrecting Kaguya omikami.
In the end, he even managed to stab Sasuke in the back by saying something that hit close to home.
Originally, he had disguised himself as Zetsu and worked alongside Byakugan Wolf in the Akatsuki, but his appearance here was unexpected.
Tang Ping hadn't understood the reason before, but now he did.
Upon learning that Shihren had fallen into the Kaguya organization, Kurozetsu naturally wanted to investigate on the moon.
However, finding the Earth-Moon Passage was a prerequisite for reaching the moon.
The problem was that he couldn't find it himself, so when he discovered Tsukimi, a descendant of the Hyuga clan, appearing out of nowhere in the same place Shihren had first shown up, he naturally focused on her.
After all, her presence there could only mean she was searching for the Earth-Moon Passage.
Compared to himself, Kurozetsu would undoubtedly have more faith in Tsukimi's ability to find the passage.
As expected, he had taken the lead and entered first.
Tang Ping didn't make a move because it was too late to use either senjutsu or sealing jutsu.
"Let's chase after them!"
However, he wouldn't give them the chance and directly entered the already open Earth-Moon Passage.
Of course, before entering, he first checked their escape route.
Reverse Summoning Technique!
With Mitate Yuki's Holy Land, they now had a means of escape.
If things went awry, they could fully utilize this method to retreat.
With this plan, they need not worry about being unable to return from the moon.
As for how they would breathe on the moon?
There was no need for concern.
Otherwise, how would the Great Tree Clan on the moon have survived?
(The protagonist only skimmed through the chapters, so many details are unknown.)
To save time, Tang Ping, in his elementalized state, leaped into the water.
Upon entering, although he felt submerged, his body remained dry, and bubbles surrounded him, creating an air of mystery.
Tang Ping didn't know how long it had been when he surfaced and stepped onto the shore.
"Can't we reach the moon?"
Mino, who had followed behind, expressed disappointment.
"No, we're already here!"
Tang Ping had seen something.
"That's right, this is no longer the Shinobi world!"
Tsukimi's eyes flashed with blue starlight, but they quickly returned to her regular Byakugan.
Her condition was not good; she couldn't use the Reincarnation Eye.
"Indeed, these crystals weren't here before!"
Mino noticed the differences within the cave.
The cave was illuminated as if it were daylight by the radiant glow of a pile of crystals, and there was no moonlight overhead.
"Be careful!"
Suddenly, Quan shouted a warning.
A shadow as thick as a water bucket lashed out towards Tohei.
It was an octopus! A creature ten meters tall, comparable to a large summoned beast.
Tohei had no reaction to this attack at all; his mind was solely focused on finding Kurozetsu.
He was so well-hidden!
Even if he was just a step behind, he couldn't find any trace of him.
As for the octopus tentacle that lashed towards him, it was instantly sliced apart by Quan.
Even if this octopus wasn't an ordinary one but a ninja beast, it couldn't withstand Quan's Kusanagi Sword.
"Rasengan!"
Mino used her jutsu to blast a large crab nearby.
With that, the two occupants of the cave were dealt with.
Tohei quickly left the cave.
Hyuga Tsukimi reduced her presence and silently followed behind him.
Once they exited the cave, their field of vision brightened.
Light!
They emerged on a small island.
The sky held a sun like a fireball, and not far away was a massive lake with a floating city suspended above it.
Spectacular and wondrous!
"I thought this was supposed to be the moon. How could it be like this?"
Mino was baffled.
In her mind, the moon should be desolate and lifeless, not like this at all.
"That's right, this doesn't look like the moon at all!"
Quan also nodded in agreement.
Only Tohei silently observed, thinking that this was indeed a good 'base'.
Unfortunately, the Otsutsuki clan couldn't enjoy it, so it was only fitting that he, the 'destined one', should occupy it.
In his mind, Tohei vaguely realized that this place was underground on the moon, and the environment was artificially simulated.
If he could cut open the sky, he would see an endless starry sky.
The sun in the sky was also artificially created.
"This is truly astonishing!"
Tohei exclaimed.
Although with the techniques he possessed, it wasn't impossible for him to achieve such feats, he had no idea how much effort and time it would require.
Hearing his exclamation, Quan and Mino naturally understood as well.
Was this environment man-made?
Astonished!
They truly hadn't expected someone to be able to create such a place on the moon.
"Let's go!"
After his exclamation, Tohei fixed his gaze on the floating city.
The Megalithic Reincarnation Eye might be there.
But if he remembered correctly, there should be countless puppets on the moon at this point in time, and Sheren was the only living person.
In the movie, the opponent planned to stay in the Reincarnation Eye with Chihaya, waiting to create a new world after the apocalypse.
Swish!
Transparent chakra unfolded behind them.
Peacock Method!
Tohei naturally knew the flying jutsu.
And this technique was considered a must-learn for flying ninjas.
Even if they couldn't master it completely, learning even a portion of it would greatly enhance their aerial combat abilities.
Hyuga Tsukimi floated into the air.
Quan also unfolded her chakra wings from her back.
Knowing the importance of aerial advantage, if one didn't have flying abilities, they would usually learn the Peacock Method.
At the very least, it ensured that aerial combat wouldn't become their fatal weakness.
The four of them quickly flew towards the floating city above the distant lake.
'I hope there won't be any dramatic twists later!'
Tohei silently prayed in his heart.
He was genuinely afraid that a fierce battle might collapse this underground space on the moon.
If it did collapse, not only would the Megalithic Reincarnation Eye be lost, but this place would also be uninhabitable.
"Stop the intruders!"
As soon as they entered the floating city, puppets with seemingly sentient souls rushed towards them.
"Leave it to us!"
Mino threw two kunai and took the initiative to attack.
Quan also drew her Kusanagi Sword and followed to clear the path.
Only Tohei, under the cover of the other two, began searching for the location of the Megalithic Reincarnation Eye.
Before his isekai, he had skipped through the movie, only watching the parts with the Reincarnation Eye and ignoring the plot.
Fortunately, he had something to rely on.
