[But apparently, neither the Land of the Ancestors nor the Land of the Other agreed with this, and both wanted her dead.]
[After all, in their view, such an inexplicable being should not exist, and a creature like this would pose a tremendous threat to their rule!]
[Just as Ōtsutsuki Kaguya was on the verge of despair, she finally reached the underground depths of the Divine Tree, where she discovered an incomparably beautiful fruit!]
[It was the fruit of the Divine Tree!]
[Ōtsutsuki Kaguya did not hesitate and directly swallowed the Divine Tree's fruit—but from that moment on, the nightmare began!]
[After devouring the Divine Tree's fruit, Kaguya obtained the power of the Kekkei Mōra!]
[She first destroyed the Land of the Other, then looked upon the Land of the Ancestors with a complicated expression.]
[But in the end, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya still made her decision—using Yomotsu Hirasaka to connect to outer space, taking other stars in the universe as a medium, she launched the Infinite Tsukuyomi, turning all of humanity—including the Son of Heaven—into offerings for the Divine Tree!]
[From that day on, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya ruled over all of mankind! And at regular intervals, groups of people were sent to the Divine Tree to be absorbed!]
That was the end of the image.
Anyone who saw this felt a chill run down their spine. Even the second-ranked individual on the killing list could be traced to a specific number of victims—one could calculate how many people they had killed.
But Kaguya?
No one knew how many lives had ended at her hands.
One hundred thousand? A million? Or even more?
"This woman is far too vicious! How many people did she kill?!"
The Fourth Raikage could no longer restrain himself and slammed his fist heavily onto the table.
In an instant, the table shattered, cracks spreading across it!
Seeing this, Tsunade immediately flew into a rage. She slammed her own fist down and shouted loudly,
"That's enough! Can you stop smashing the table every single time?!"
However, the moment Tsunade struck it, the table completely collapsed!
This left three black lines appearing on Tsunade's forehead in utter embarrassment.
"Princess Tsunade, please calm down," Ōnoki said calmly. "All of this is already in the past. Our current enemies are Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Obito, and Yakushi Kabuto. They're the ones who will start the Fourth Great Ninja War!"
Ōnoki said this for the sake of Iwagakure.
Otherwise, relying on them alone, it might be impossible to stop Uchiha Madara.
No—rather, it would be impossible to stop Uchiha Madara!
"Sigh… Madara Uchiha still hasn't shown himself. Who knows what he's plotting now," Tsunade said with a frown.
On the other side, Naruto Uzumaki stared at the image on the list, shock written all over his face.
"Why would Big Sister do something like this?!"
Naruto couldn't fully comprehend it, but he knew one thing clearly—what Kaguya did was wrong.
Pure Land.
The Son of Heaven of the Land of the Ancestors felt tears streaming down his face at this moment.
See? His choice back then wasn't wrong!
That Ōtsutsuki Kaguya was definitely not a good person!
She had always treated humans as mere livestock!
"Have you all said enough? Look at the latest image on the list! Kaguya ranks first in killings, her methods are cruel—why are you still blaming me~?"
The Son of Heaven shouted loudly.
For a moment, everyone fell silent, feeling that what he said made sense.
However, just then, a discordant voice rang out.
"If you hadn't done that to her, would she have gone to the Divine Tree?"
As soon as this question appeared, the crowd once again began condemning the Son of Heaven of the Land of the Ancestors.
"Yes, yes, isn't it all because of you?!"
"If you hadn't done such despicable things and instead joined forces against the Land of the Other, Kaguya would never have become like this!"
"You forced her into it—it's all your fault!"
The accusations caused the Son of Heaven to retreat into silence.
He didn't want to hear any of it anymore.
He just wanted some peace and quiet.
[No. 1 on the Killing List: Ōtsutsuki Kaguya]
[Reward: Seal Loosened!]
The Sage of Six Paths, who had been staring at the moon, clearly saw the words on the list—and his heart immediately sank.
Sure enough, in the very next second, the moon sealing Ōtsutsuki Kaguya began to change!
The seal was actually loosening!
"Chibaku Tensei!!"
The Sage of Six Paths did not hesitate and immediately unleashed Chibaku Tensei.
Countless landmasses, plates, and stones rose from the ground and soared into the sky.
In the end, they all converged toward the moon.
Even so, the Sage of Six Paths still felt an overwhelming sense of danger.
He had the distinct feeling that at any moment, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya might break free of the seal!
Inside the seal, Kaguya herself felt it loosening.
She struck against the seal again and again.
Each time, she felt she was just about to succeed—yet every time, she failed at the last moment.
This left Ōtsutsuki Kaguya feeling somewhat fatigued.
Although she had been sealed for countless years and did not particularly care about time, who would willingly remain imprisoned forever?
She had originally believed that once the seal loosened, escaping would be easy.
Who would have thought that even with the seal weakened, breaking free would still be so difficult—especially with her own son, the Sage of Six Paths, continuously reinforcing it!
Clearly ranked first on the list, yet the reward given to her felt utterly insignificant.
When the first place on the killing list was announced, most people hadn't paid it much attention—merely sighing.
But when they saw the reward, everyone was stunned!
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya wasn't dead—she had only been sealed!
And now, that seal had been loosened considerably!
In an instant, the number-one enemy in the eyes of the Four Great Villages shifted from Uchiha Madara to Ōtsutsuki Kaguya!
"Damn it! Why would this list give such a reward?!"
The Fourth Raikage cursed angrily, raising his fist high, ready to smash the table again.
But halfway through, he suddenly realized—
This was Konoha's property. And it was extremely expensive.
If he destroyed it, he'd probably have to compensate a fortune.
"It's hard to imagine that she's still alive," Ōnoki said gravely. "And we know nothing about her—how she fights, what her abilities are."
"And judging from this, she might be even stronger than Uchiha Madara!"
Even when facing Madara, Ōnoki wouldn't feel afraid.
But Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's strength was a complete mystery.
No one had ever seen her fight.
That was what worried Ōnoki the most.
"Hey, old man, no need to worry so much," Mei Terumī suddenly interjected. "She hasn't broken out yet, has she?"
She still believed that Madara Uchiha was the true number-one enemy.
At this moment, Madara Uchiha gazed up at the sky, lost in thought.
Kaguya's presence placed tremendous pressure on him.
Madara even felt as though Kaguya existed solely to restrain him—and that made him deeply displeased.
"The seal is loosening… so she's not dead," Sakura said fearfully, her eyes filled with dread. "To survive from ancient times until now—how terrifying must that be?"
"What are you scared of?" Naruto Uzumaki said casually. "She's still sealed. How strong can she really be?"
Naruto simply didn't understand fear.
Hidden in the shadows, Uchiha Itachi fell into deep contemplation.
Judging from the images on the list, if Kaguya were truly resurrected, she would certainly not spare the ninjas.
In that case, the safety of himself and his brother would be uncertain.
That directly conflicted with his original intention.
He only wanted to protect Uchiha Sasuke and watch him grow up safely.
He didn't want Sasuke's life threatened—nor did he want anyone to bully him.
And yet, before Kaguya had even appeared, countless ninjas had already regarded her as their greatest enemy.
Pure Land.
[Senju Hashirama: I truly didn't expect her to still be alive—just sealed.]
[Senju Tobirama: Big Brother, now that her seal has been weakened, I'm worried about Konoha…]
[Senju Hashirama: My dear little brother, I don't have a better solution either. My Yomotsu Hirasaka Sword is still on cooldown!]
[Senju Tobirama: I trust you, Big Brother. You'll definitely be able to stop Kaguya's resurrection!]
At this moment, Hashirama felt completely overwhelmed.
It was a good thing that his younger brother trusted him.
But the problem was—he didn't trust himself at all!
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya having lived until now was enough, by itself, to place immense pressure on Hashirama.
Meanwhile…
The reward Su Yu received was—
The ability to completely customize the list himself, with rewards distributed randomly!
This instantly made Su Yu feel that things were becoming very interesting.
If one were to talk about what was most interesting—
Then it would naturally be the legend of Konoha Village.
Or rather…
The legend of this world.
Su Yu pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision.
He would release a very special list.
The Strongest Ninja List!
However, this list would contain only six names.
And these six names corresponded exactly to the six most powerful shinobi in his mind!
Once Su Yu made his decision, he immediately began publishing the new list.
[Ding! A new list is about to be released!]
[Ding! Announcement: The Strongest Ninja List!]
"What?! Did I read that right? The Strongest Ninja List?!"
"Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter! The strongest genin? How strong could a mere genin possibly be?"
"Yeah, yeah! What, is it a competition to see whose shuriken flies the farthest?"
"No, no, no! Maybe it's about who can run the fastest!"
"You're all wrong! To become a ninja after graduation, you have to master the Three Basic Techniques. I suspect the strongest one is whoever uses the Transformation Technique best!"
"That actually makes sense!"
In an instant, ninjas everywhere erupted into discussion.
In their eyes, what was there to announce about the strongest genin?
They could crush a genin with one hand!
Maybe "crush" was an exaggeration—but to them, genin weren't even real ninjas.
Defeating them was effortless.
The strongest?
How strong could that possibly be?
Hearing the surrounding discussions, Su Yu's lips curled upward slightly.
They had no idea—
That in the entire ninja world, the two strongest individuals…
Were both genin.
