“If you refuse to surrender, don’t blame me for being ruthless, It’ll be your honor to die before my Tenseigan”
Ryūsuke declared.
He didn’t want to waste his breath. Having gained the Tenseigan, once he eliminated the main family, he would proceed with his plan to destroy the Shinobi world.
…
“It really is the Tenseigan. In that case, I’ll gladly accept it.”
Now certain it was genuine, Shin didn’t hesitate. He activated the [Divine Replication Card] and targeted Ryūsuke’s Tenseigan.
Instantly, Shin felt a sharp pain in his eyes, forcing them closed for a few seconds.
When he reopened them, his irises glowed Bright Blue—just like the Tenseigan.
A vast, overwhelming power coursed through his vision.
He had believed his [Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan] was already immensely strong, but this was on another level altogether.
“Incredible…”
Just as Shin prepared to act, an even more startling transformation occurred.
His newly acquired blue Tenseigan rippled, and dark circular rings appeared. The surge of ocular power doubled.
Shin touched his eyes.
Drawing the Kusanagi Blade, he used its polished surface as a mirror. Reflected back at him were eyes that appeared like a bluish version of the Rinnegan.
“…Wait, did I just awaken the Rinnegan?”
Shin recognized it as neither a pure Tenseigan nor a standard Rinnegan—it was a Fusion of both.
He realized that his body had already met the conditions to unlock the Rinnegan—he possessed a Perfect Sage Body and an Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. The brand-new Tenseigan simply served as the catalyst to bring it all together.
“Should I call these the Rinnegan or the Tenseigan? Since they’re a fusion, why not call them the [Rinne-Tenseigan]?”
He wasn’t good at naming things, so he kept it simple.
…
“You there, hiding in the shadows. Are you going to stay there forever?”
Ryūsuke, having killed the leader of the main family and the remaining members, looked towards Shin’s hiding spot.
Trying to hide from his Tenseigan was foolish. The Tenseigan inherited all the abilities of the Byakugan, but it was far more powerful.
Shin had been discovered the moment he arrived. But Ryūsuke had been busy dealing with the main family and hadn’t paid attention to him.
He hadn’t seen Shin as a threat. With the Tenseigan, he believed he was invincible.
“Are you talking to me?”
Shin stepped forward, deactivating his Rinne-Tenseigan. He stared calmly at Ryūsuke and the rest of the branch family.
“Who else would I be talking to? How did you get onto the moon?”
Ryūsuke’s eyes narrowed. An outsider had infiltrated their territory. He was furious.
“I didn’t sneak in. I made quite a grand entrance. You’re just deaf.” Shin chuckled darkly.
“You dare speak so arrogantly, weakling from the Shinobi world?”
Spat a branch family member, lunging forward.
“Arrogance? You worms lurking underground are the ones who act high and mighty,”
Shin jeered, casually slicing off the attacker’s head in one swipe of his blade.
“Bastard!”
“You’re dead!”
“Kill him!”
Furious shouts erupted from the branch family.
“You’re quite strong. If you join me, I’ll forgive you for killing my clansman.”
Ryūsuke looked at Shin with interest. To be able to reach this place, Shin must be strong.
“Hey, I just killed your clansman. Aren’t you afraid of demoralizing the others?”
Shin asked as he wiped the blood off his Kusanagi sword.
“I am the leader of the Ōtsutsuki Clan. My word is law.” Ryūsuke said calmly.
“Let’s cut the chatter. I came here for one reason: to wipe out the entire Ōtsutsuki Clan. So, will you all do the honorable thing and end yourselves, or shall I do it?”
Shin gave them a thin smile.
“If you choose seppuku, at least you’ll leave an intact corpse behind. If I do it…”
Shin gestured to the corpse.
“You’ll end up like him—Head rolling.”
“You worm—Clan Chief, kill him!”
The branch family roared in anger. With the main family’s leader gone, they now referred to Ryūsuke as their own “Clan Chief.”
“No. I’ll be the one killing all of you,”
Shin’s expression turned serious. He would use these guys to test his Wood Release.
“I’ve been itching to test out my Wood Release—let’s see how it fares.”
“Wood Style: Deep Forest Emergence!“
Countless trees sprouted from the ground, instantly transforming the area into a forest.
The branches and roots came alive, attacking the Ōtsutsuki.
The Ōtsutsuki had initially underestimated the trees, but they soon realized their mistake.
One of them was pierced by a branch and his Chakra was absorbed, becoming nourishment for the trees.
The trees were incredibly tough, and they could regenerate and absorb Chakra.
Once you were caught, your Chakra would be drained. And even if you destroyed the trees, they would regenerate quickly.
The forest spanned dozens of kilometers. No Ōtsutsuki, except for Ryūsuke with his Tenseigan, could escape.
“Watching them struggle like this…does give me a certain grim satisfaction.”
Shin admitted, surveying the scene calmly.
…
At the same time, Tsunade and the others caught sight of the massive expanse of greenery spreading across half the floating island.
“Is that Wood Release? Did Shin create that?”
Tsunade sounded almost breathless with excitement. Shin had really learned Wood Release.
She hadn’t had much hope when she gave him the scroll. After all, no one in the Senju Clan had been able to awaken Wood Release, despite years of research.
But Shin had done it. Tsunade was overjoyed. Wood Release was special to her.
