Chapter 140 : Isshiki?

In the sky, before the Golden List.

The holographic image materialized before everyone, revealing Ōtsutsuki Kaguya.

In contrast to her initial appearance, Kaguya now exuded a cold demeanor, her eyes sharp, her presence formidable, and her demeanor aloof.

The third eye, a Rinne Sharingan, was now partially closed between her brows.

"The Art of Summoning!"

Kaguya's voice, cool and melodic, resonated throughout the heavens and earth.

*Boom!*

Amidst rising smoke, a colossal humanoid creature emerged. It sported ten protrusions on its back (indicating the severed tail) and nine eyes on its head, only four of which were currently open.

The Gedo Statue of Ten Tails!

Kaguya and Gedo Statue transformed into streaks of light, hurtling into the Summoning Beast List.

Second place: Ten Tails · Disabled (presently Gedo Statue, with less than 20% of Chara supplement)

Master-Servant Contract: Ōtsutsuki Kaguya

[Golden List Explanation: Ten Tails originates from the Ōtsutsuki clan, the source of Chakra. Its true form is the God tree nurturing Chakra's fruit. Ten Tails is merely the sapling of the God tree. As it matures into a God tree, its roots will spread to every corner of the planet, continuously absorbing natural energy. When saturated, it bears immense chakra fruits.

[Golden List Insight: If the Ōtsutsuki clan devours the fruit and disperses Chakra, the God tree reverts to the Ten Tails state. Activating Infinite Tsukuyomi at this point allows the God tree to grow again, with the roots continuing to absorb natural energy. It can also absorb the Chara of all creatures, restoring its prime.)

[Golden List Insight: Gedo Statue is the form of Ten Tails after losing all chakras. At this point, only one body remains in Ten Tails.]

Alongside the list information, there was also the Golden List's explanation.

Perhaps this was Kaguya trump card, the progenitor of Chakra?

However, this time, the onlookers paid no heed to these details.

Their focus was on Kaguya securing second place.

Could there be a Summoning beast stronger than Ten Tails' form in this world?

[Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo: Ten Tails is, in fact, a sapling of the God Tree. I finally understand why my mother was sealed by me and Hamura in the first place; she was far from her prime.]

[Ōtsutsuki Hamura: Ten Tails (saplings), God trees, bear fruit, and after swallowing, they possess Bloodline Encompassing and the Rinne Sharingan. At that time, Mother was at her most potent.]

[Black Zetsu: You're right. If it were her prime, Mother could have easily annihilated you. Back then, you didn't even possess the physique and strength of the Ōtsutsuki clan.]

[Black Zetsu: If it weren't for Mother's benevolence, feeling pity after being revered by humans, separating the chakras, and using some of the fruits to create you, your strength wouldn't have weakened to the point where even toads dared to challenge you. By the way, she was single-handedly purifying the world at that time. What's a stinky toad compared to that?]

[Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo: No wonder, no wonder Mother expressed disappointment in Hamura And me and wanted to reclaim the distributed chakra. That's what she meant.]

[Ōtsutsuki Hamura: But why does the mother devour humans, restore strength, or make weapons?)

[Black Zetsu: Fool, that's just a sidetrack when the stinky toad manipulates you. Mothers need to regain her full strength and continue absorbing natural energy through the God tree. She resort to swallowing human beings only because they've observed it over the long years. This horde of inferior creatures kills each other, fights for power and profit, and they can't manage it on their own!

Once people are reduced, they naturally enter a relatively peaceful state.

Mother isn't foolish; they would kill each other, so it's better to create weapons to handle the Ōtsutsuki clan in the future."

[Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo: So it is."

[Ōtsutsuki Hamura: Brother…)

[Uchiha Madara: Let me tell you, now is not the time for you to discuss things? The Gedo Statue can't be ranked first, what do you think the reason is?]

[Senju Hashirama: Madara, why didn't you interrupt earlier, and you wait until everyone has disclosed all the information that should be revealed."

[Uchiha Madara: Want to take care of it?]

[Senju Hashirama: Even if it's crude, it's effective."

[Uchiha Madara: He once spoke to me and didn't want to talk to you."

[Senju Hashirama: Feeling ashamed?]

[Uchiha Madara: Hmph!!!]

"Huh~"

A smirk appeared on Uchiha Ran's face.

Is there some special switch on Hashirama?

Otherwise, why does his "combat force" defy the heavens when facing Uchiha Madara?

[Senju Tobirama: You two good friends have also been quarreling. Now the key question, what Summoning beast can rank above the Gedo Statue that restores nearly 20% of it's chakra!

[Fourth Raikage Ai: I think my Kumogakure's Island Turtle can."

[Nara Shikaku: Island Turtle?]

[Fourth Raikage Ai: There's a real waterfall on Island Turtle, which has a positive effect on helping Jinchūriki become a perfect Jinchūriki. But there's no need to keep it hidden now; this is an island drifting in the sea carrying a giant tortoise. It's decided to rank first on the Summoning beast list!)

[Onoki: I didn't expect you, Kumogakure, to have such a gem. No wonder you can cultivate a perfect Jinchūriki, but it's truly irrelevant now.)

[Senju Hashirama: There are still countless secrets in the ninja world. A giant ninja turtle the size of island? Very interesting."

[Nara Shikamaru: @ Fourth Raikage Ai, then Lord Fourth Raikage, did you sign the contract with Island Turtle? The specific information will be announced later, so don't hide it?]

[Fourth Raikage Ai: The person who signed the contract? Such a thing doesn't exist; we, the village, and Island Turtle have a mutual understanding.]

[Nara Shikamaru: Can villages sign contracts?]

[Nara Shikaku: Son, the Fourth Raikage means he has a close relationship with Island Turtle, not a contractual summoning relationship.]

[Fourth Raikage Ai: Yes, Island Turtle belongs to our Cloud Shinobi Village. Any issues with that?]

[Nara Shikamaru: Have you, Cloud Shinobi, given up treating the Fourth Raikage?]

[Mabui: You guessed it right.]

[Darui: Before the Summoning Beast List was announced, we had just discovered Island Turtle. We didn't have time to convince the Island Turtle to sign a contract.]

[Senju Hashirama: I see, you missed a high-ranked Summoning beast for nothing.]

All Cloud Shinobi Village Ninjas: Really dry!

[Uchiha Madara: So Island Turtle isn't the first place. Which Summoning beast is it then?]

[Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo: I've seen Island Turtle before. I was just comparing it to the Gedo Statue. I did expect it to be eligible for the list, but now I don't know who else it is.]

[Ōtsutsuki Hamura: @Ōtsutsuki Toneri, the clan has been observing the ninja world from the moon for so long. Is there any record of discovery?]

[Ōtsutsuki Toneri: Lord Ancestor, the mighty Shimori, Monkey King: Enma, Dog clan, shark clan, Eagle clan, Hanzō's Salamander, but they're not on the list. Obviously, Uchiha Ran's guess is correct; it must be a Summoning beast, and there's no record in our clan.]

[Orochimaru: It seems the water on this planet is deeper than we thought.]

Even the Sage of Six Paths, Ancestor Hamura, and the Sages of the Three Great Sage Region don't know about these unknown existences.

Beyond the body of Ten Tails, the Gedo Statue is contracted.

What could it be?

Orochimaru felt that there were only three people in the world who could answer his question.

An unknown mysterious person.

An almost omniscient Uchiha Ran.

And Ōtsutsuki Kaguya that existed longer than the Sage of Six Paths and the Three Sacred Sages.

"Ran-kun, surely you know."

Orochimaru licked his tongue, ready to ask.

Although the answer will be revealed soon, he still can't help but want to know quickly.

And there are not a few people who have the same thoughts as Orochimaru.

Many are ready to ask.

But there was one who was faster than them.

[Ōtsutsuki Kaguya : @ Ōtsutsuki Isshiki]

[Ōtsutsuki Kaguya: Isshiki, it's you. You're still alive!?]

[Ōtsutsuki Kaguya: Karma? But you didn't have the goal to use Karma!]

[Ōtsutsuki Kaguya: No. 1 is another Ten Tails in your hand!]

Boom!

The ninja world exploded.

There is an Ōtsutsuki.

Moreover, there is actually another Ten Tails?

Suddenly, many people thought of something and exclaimed, "Yes, there is indeed another Ten Tails!"
