After repairing the damage caused by Tsunade and Otsutsuki Momo's battle, Uchiha Mirai took Springbright back to Konoha.
Through this battle, the so-called Otsutsuki Clan was no longer a mystery in everyone's hearts.
The ninja world had finally grown powerful enough to challenge the Otsutsuki Clan!
Even Kaguya Otsutsuki felt unusually joyful.
Back then, unwilling to die and also lusting for the chakra of the God Tree, she ambushed Otsutsuki Isshiki.
Since that day, her heart had remained uneasy, always fearing the clan might one day send someone to settle accounts with her.
Yet now, two members of the Otsutsuki Clan had been eliminated so effortlessly...
Having someone watching your back like this feels incredible.
Kaguya Otsutsuki decided she must devote herself completely to Mirai Uchiha from now on.

Several months later.
Otsutsuki Ura arrived on the Moon and quickly located traces left previously by Otsutsuki Hamura.
This discovery excited Ura greatly.
Judging from the architectural style within the Moon's structure, Isshiki Otsutsuki and Kaguya Otsutsuki must have lost contact here.
Walking around while visiting different places, Ura reached an archive room.
Inside the archives, he found some relevant information.
"Kaguya Otsutsuki consumed the God Tree fruit and became the Moon Goddess of this planet."
"It seems Kaguya betrayed Isshiki. Otherwise, it should have been Isshiki cultivating the God Tree instead."
Ura briefly analyzed before continuing his search.
"Using the God Tree to produce White Zetsu... thinking such things could resist the Otsutsuki Clan's retribution?"
"How ridiculous."
"She eventually got sealed away by her own two sons..."
A faint sneer appeared on Ura's face.
No wonder this planet has remained vibrant all these years—the Isshiki and Kaguya must've encountered problems.
But this made things easier for him.
First come, first served—if the God Tree bears fruit again on this planet, he'd claim half!
Thinking thus, Ura couldn't help but snort softly.
"Senior Momo Otsutsuki came before me but sent no reports back—he probably wants to monopolize this energy-rich planet alone."
"But I can't allow that."
Looking down at Earth from the Moon, excitement spread across Otsutsuki Ura's face.
Such a thriving planet wasn't common in the universe. Plant the God Tree seed here, and it will definitely yield irresistibly divine fruits.
At the thought, a pitch-black spatial portal opened, and Otsutsuki Ura vanished from the spot.

The ninja world.
Hidden Leaf Village.
The Chunin promotion exam had officially begun.
These days, the entire Hidden Leaf is bustling with activity.
From nearly every region, standout Genin come to Hidden Leaf to participate in the Chunin exams.
Passing meant being able to remain in the Hidden Leaf as a full-fledged ninja.
It was no exaggeration to say this was a chance to soar into the sky, so every year at this time, countless people flocked to Hidden Leaf like moths to a flame.
Inside the massive arena, two ninja were locked in an intense battle under everyone's watchful eyes.

[Magnet Release: Iron Sand World Method!]
The two men continuously formed hand seals with their hands, unleashing various Ninjutsu techniques.
Their spectacular duel left the audience buzzing with excitement.
Floating midair, Otsutsuki Ura glanced at the fight before losing interest.
This planet had managed to seal away Kaguya Otsutsuki after she consumed the God Tree fruit. Had it truly only progressed to this level after all these years?
After all, the natives here could only rely on self-cultivation. Naturally, improving one's strength wouldn't be easy.
"Well then, I might as well find a place to gather some intelligence first."
Otsutsuki Ura casually strode down an alleyway with few passersby and stepped into a small restaurant still open for business.
At this moment, there was only one customer inside the restaurant.
"Hello, welcome! What would you like to eat?"
Just as Otsutsuki Ura was observing quietly, a man who looked rather honest approached him.
Ura coldly snorted, then suddenly reached out and grabbed the man by the neck.
"Not again, what do you think you're doing?"
As his neck was seized, the man's face turned to shock.
Maintaining his polite tone, Ura explained, "I simply wish to access some information inside your mind. If you don't resist, I won't harm you."
"Huh?!"
"Madara! Someone's causing trouble here!"
Hearing Senju Hashirama's shout from the kitchen, Uchiha Madara slowly walked in from the back.
He smirked slightly, saying, "I just heard clearly what he said. He only wants to probe your memories; it has nothing to do with our restaurant."
Immediately, Hashirama argued, "But my mind contains our restaurant's recipes! If he sees them, we risk having our secrets leaked."
Even so, Uchiha Madara remained calmly expressionless: "That doesn't matter."
Seeing this, Hashirama had no choice but to play his trump card: "Madara, surely you don't want someone else seeing those personal memories about us either, right?"
Uchiha Madara paused for a moment, then silently began walking toward Otsutsuki Ura with an emotionless face.
"Leave now — or I'll make you regret it."
Otsutsuki Ura shook his head firmly. "I have no choice but to do this."
"But I can choose someone else to extract memories from."
"Are you willing to take his place?"
Otsutsuki Ura turned toward Madara Uchiha and asked.
"Get lost!"
Madara snapped icily. A massive skeletal arm instantly shot forward, smashing violently toward Otsutsuki Ura.
[Boom!]
Ura's figure transformed into countless paper cranes, dodging Madara's attack effortlessly.
[Thousand Paper Cranes Body Flicker!]
Hashirama Senju looked at the ruined ground with a pained expression.
"Madara, do you even know how much fixing all this will cost?"
Madara didn't care. "How much it costs means nothing. That guy over there has more than enough to cover it."
"That's right, isn't it, Mirai Uchiha?"
Mirai Uchiha finished his meal, elegantly wiped his lips, and smiled. "I was actually planning to track this guy down. I didn't expect him to walk right into my hands so conveniently."
"Fate really is amusing."
Madara asked curiously, "You know him?"
Mirai nodded. "He's from the Otsutsuki Clan. His name is Otsutsuki Ura."
Hearing this, both Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju couldn't help showing excitement on their faces.
This guy is one of the legendary Otsutsuki?
Excellent! Now we can finally have an amazing battle!
The conversation left Otsutsuki Ura frozen in place, utterly shocked.
How could they possibly know who he was?
