Seeing Otsutsuki being publicly beaten, everyone finally relaxed their tightly wound nerves.
"I thought they'd be super powerful after performing Gatai. Turns out they're just this weak?"
"He's actually incredibly powerful—it's just that he overestimated his chances by challenging someone he never should have faced!"
Upon hearing these words, many people nodded in agreement.
The enemy's strength had already reached absurd levels—grabbing stars and moons was nothing special, but treating the Moon itself like a toy in his palm?
In any other battle, he might have already emerged victorious!
Unfortunately, he faced the most outstanding figure ever born on this planet.
In stark contrast, several monsters felt icy cold dread creeping into their hearts.
Weren't we supposed to be safe now? How come even after performing Gatai, they still couldn't beat him? How embarrassing!
These monsters cried inwardly—if they possessed Otsutsuki's power, things definitely wouldn't end up like this!
"What exactly is going on with this planet?" Momoshiki and Isshiki's souls were both roaring in rage. They had already overestimated their opponent, yet reality proved far crueler than expected!
Even after performing Gatai, they couldn't defeat him!
Just as he was about to lose hope, Aizen suddenly stopped fighting. "Now can you finally see the situation clearly?"
Ichimomozuki hesitated momentarily, then widened his eyes in disbelief. "Y-you're sparing me?"
Aizen gently wagged his finger. "Not sparing—merely allowing you to participate in the battle as a third party. After all, you still hold some value."
Seiki smirked at him. "You really went through great effort just to fight me at full strength!"
Aizen softly chuckled. "If there's anyone in this world who could possibly pressure me, it would have to be you!"
Ichimomozuki first felt relieved, but soon unbearable humiliation surged within him.
He was disregarded by these inferior creatures—reduced merely to a catalyst for provoking his opponent!
This was the ultimate disgrace—unbearable and unforgivable!
However, he didn't refuse or curse, instead burying this humiliation deep inside while silently reminding himself—endure!
"You sure do flatter me!" Seiki said with a smile, then turned toward Ichimomozuki. "Hand over control of the Pure Land—I'll integrate it into the final battlefield!"
Ichimomozuki handed over control with a grimace, silently reminding himself—endure!
After integrating the Pure Land into the Moon, the connection between the lunar sanctuary and Planet Earth grew increasingly intimate, like the shadow aspect of a single entity split into two reflections!
Before the armies of the three major factions, three massive gateways suddenly appeared.
Seiki solemnly declared, "To avoid harming the Planet during the war, let's hold our decisive battle on the Moon!"
Meanwhile, Aizen inwardly mused, "Let them fight to their hearts' content! When the chakra concentration reaches its peak inside this enclosed environment, that will be the moment I complete my transformation!"
Under normal circumstances, even a decade of peace wouldn't release as much chakra into the world as a single war does!
This war would surpass all previous conflicts in both scale and intensity, releasing chakra that might equal the accumulation of hundreds or even thousands of years!
Combined with the Moon's smaller size compared to the planet and its enclosed space, the chakra concentration would inevitably reach an extreme limit!
As he contemplated his transformation, the crowd below became ecstatic.
"Is the battle finally about to begin?"
"Damn that Otsutsuki! I was just about to get into the zone, and suddenly he interfered. Now I have to start all over again to find my rhythm!"
Among the crowd, Mizuki's heart surged with excitement. He fanatically believed in Seiki, who surpassed even his wildest dreams in fulfilling his expectations!
What was happening now exceeded anything he had ever dared to imagine!
"Indeed, it's the greatest foolishness to speculate about a god's abilities with a mortal mind! I only need to follow orders!"
Hiruzen took a puff from his pipe, his thoughts drifting back over two decades. "Back then, I saw how extraordinary Seiki was. I was right about him!"
Looking at the godlike figure of Seiki in the sky, Asuma had a strange expression on his face. "So, the peak moment of my life was actually that battle when I was five?"
Hearing his murmur, Shuunen standing beside him nodded in strong agreement. "We actually held our own against Seiki once!"
Madara folded his arms, watching Hashirama from the opposing side. "This time, I will truly make it across the finish line!"
...
As the three factions entered the Final Battlefield, outside the planet, a tall figure fell out from a twisted space-time vortex!
With pale skin, horns on his head, and a golden vertical eye embedded in his forehead, it was clearly a member of the Otsutsuki clan!
"I... I've time-traveled back?" Seeing his surroundings, Otsutsuki Ryushi trembled with excitement.
After calming down, he looked at the planet below with a mix of fear and hatred in his eyes. "So this is the planet where the cosmic emperor Seiki Shimaseki rose to power? This is the ultimate demon king who drove the Otsutsuki to the brink!"
Thinking about how the once omnipotent Otsutsuki had been reduced to a fugitive existence, Ryushi felt such rage that he wished to flay the culprit alive!
"Although my strength should currently surpass that of Shimaseki Seiki, I mustn't be careless!" Ryushi forced himself to stay calm, muttering with a trembling voice. "After all, that guy is known as Void Lord and Cosmic Emperor—a monster among monsters!"
For someone to rise from a planet once oppressed and herded, to destroy the Otsutsuki's ten-thousand-year foundation in merely a few centuries—such a person could only be described as a mythological figure!
Without the power of time travel, he wouldn't even have the qualification to stand before his enemy!
"It seems the Final Battlefield has already begun downstairs?" Ryushi frowned. "Unfortunately, I don't know the specifics of this battle. Otherwise, I wouldn't need to be this cautious!"
"Anyway, first I need to find a way to infiltrate!"
...
After entering the secret realm, what appeared before the crowd was a vast plaza. In the center of the plaza, a spring shimmered with a soft golden glow.
The air around it was fragrant and vibrant, as if filled with the essence of spring itself!
Merely being near the Spring, everyone could feel a surge of powerful vitality coursing through their bodies!
"What is this?"
"I feel full of energy! Even my lingering injuries have healed!"
Seiki followed behind the group and walked in. "This is the Life Spring refined from the Greer crystal vein provided by Aizen. If anyone is injured or exhausted during war, they can temporarily retreat here to recuperate for a while!"
Chakra control techniques drained energy quickly. To ensure the continuous use of Chakra control techniques by all three factions, he didn't hesitate to sacrifice the entire crystal vein!
Upon hearing Seiki's explanation, everyone became excited.
"Now we can fight without any worries!"
"I can finally experience what it feels like to have unlimited Chakra too!"
Some others pointed out, "The crystal vein provided by Aizen? Then what about the other two factions..."
Seiki gave a slight nod. "All three factions have their own Life Springs! The symbol of one side's defeat will be when their Life Spring is captured by the enemy!"
