At this moment on the Moon, Izayoi's situation was not good.
The Chakra Rosary was ultimately not a Truth-Seeking Ball, and the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion transformed from it could still be absorbed by the Preta Path.
The attack just now, which went from the Moon to the Earth, consumed most of Izayoi's Chakra.
Since copying Toneri Otsutsuki's Otsutsuki Bloodline (Red) and possessing the Chakra-dense physique, this was the first time Izayoi had experienced the feeling of being almost exhausted by a single move.
However, the effect of this move was also very significant.
While Izayoi was still gasping for breath in the air, trying to calm his breathing, several beams of light flew towards him, one red and several purple.
Seeing this scene, Izayoi couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Then, using the Tenseigan's long-range and x-ray vision abilities, his gaze directly projected from the Moon to the Earth, staring at the hole where Madara Uchiha lay.
Seeing that Madara Uchiha was not dead, not even unconscious, and even had a massive amount of Chakra, completely capable of coming to the Moon again for a second round, Izayoi thought with surprise, What's going on? He's not dead, not unconscious, and he even has a huge amount of Chakra, completely capable of coming to the Moon again for a second round. Why did the system judge him as defeated?
Staring at Madara Uchiha's confused expression, Izayoi couldn't help but analyze in his mind, Could it be that losing the will to fight or battle intent also counts as a defeat?
Other than this explanation, Izayoi couldn't think of a second possibility for the drop.
Unless the enemy was too far away, and the system directly judged him as losing.
If there was really such a childish possibility, Izayoi wouldn't have taken so long to accumulate enough points to upgrade his Perks.
Ding! You have obtained the Talent Perk [Six Paths Potential (Red)], which overlaps with your own Talent Perk. Merge or decompose?
Ding...
Several system prompts sounded in his mind, pulling Izayoi back to reality.
As if thinking of something, Izayoi didn't make a choice immediately. Instead, he summoned his personal panel, first glanced at the Otsutsuki Bloodline (Rainbow) and Kekkei Genkai: Tenseigan (Rainbow) Perks, and then his gaze fell on the Six Paths Potential (Red) Perk.
The first prompt just now made Izayoi realize something very important.
The Tenseigan and Rinnegan were both Rainbow Perks.
However, these two abilities were just entry tickets to the Six Paths level.
Without mastering the Truth-Seeking Ball and Sage of Six Paths Mode, or becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, even a Six Paths level expert would find it somewhat difficult to defeat an ultimate Super Kage like Hashirama Senju.
And Hashirama Senju, even if Izayoi hadn't seen his peak, could guess that his talent was at most a Sage Body (Red).
Only Sage Body (Red) + Sage Eye (Red) could give birth to the Kekkei Genkai: Rinnegan (Rainbow).
Even the Kekkei Genkai Rinnegan was already a Rainbow Perk.
Undoubtedly, the Bloodline Kekkai Mora, formed by the fusion of seven nature transformations, must also be a Rainbow Perk.
To be precise, the starting point for Rainbow Perks was the Six Paths level.
Then... Six Paths Potential, since it could make a person's potential reach the Six Paths level, or be able to possess Six Paths level combat power, why was this Perk only a Red Perk?
Being only a Red Perk meant it could still be upgraded.
If Six Paths Potential could be upgraded, what kind of potential was above the Six Paths?
Looking at the original work, and even the pure-blooded Otsutsuki who appeared in Boruto, their strength remained at the Six Paths level.
The only one who surpassed the Six Paths was the suspected Otsutsuki god who transcended this world... Shibai Otsutsuki.
Could it be that above Six Paths Potential is the potential to transcend this world?
Suddenly, a current flowed from Izayoi's brain to his tailbone, then quickly spread throughout his body, giving him goosebumps.
"Damn it, I'm suffering from a lack of knowledge!" Izayoi cursed inwardly.
All this time, Izayoi's focus had been on the Otsutsuki Bloodline, believing it to be the foundation.
And that was indeed the case.
Without the Otsutsuki Bloodline, Izayoi at his age would not have this level of strength at all.
Many Perks were even subsidiary Perks of the Otsutsuki Bloodline.
Including the Potential Perk!
As a result, Izayoi had overlooked the Potential Perk.
Anyone who extracted Chakra would unlock the Potential Perk.
The lowest was Genin, and currently the highest was Six Paths Potential (Red).
Before Izayoi used the Newbie Gift Package, his only Perk was Chunin Potential (Green).
After using the cheat, this Perk had followed Izayoi all the way up to Six Paths Potential (Red).
Izayoi had thought this Perk was the most useless red Perk, merely a certification of strength.
Now it seemed he was completely wrong.
Potential refers to innate qualities and talents.
This Perk, which everyone who extracts Chakra possesses, is not only the Perk with the most special level but also the Perk that best represents the talent Perk system.
This is a Perk that materializes the upper limit of potential.
Talent Perks that are not materialized by the system cannot be improved through cheating and can only be gradually unearthed and realized, such as the space-time talent inherent in the Otsutsuki Clan.
Talents materialized as Perks, on the other hand, can be upgraded through Perk fusion and points.
Izayoi's current Potential is Six Paths. Without defying fate and changing destiny, the upper limit of his potential is Six Paths.
No matter how hard he works, his limit can only remain at the Six Paths level.
And the Otsutsuki Bloodline (Rainbow) is the Perk that can help him defy fate and change destiny.
However, defying fate and changing destiny, like the Fetal Movement of the Tenseigan, requires a long time.
Since defying fate and changing destiny can elevate Potential, then conversely, would upgrading the level of Potential accelerate the speed of defying fate and changing destiny?
Upgrading Potential means that the potential has broken through its limit and reached a new upper limit. The speed of defying fate and changing destiny should be like having an acceleration cheat.
The more Izayoi thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
Having only entered his true growth period after his Birthday, even if he wanted to awaken the abilities inherent in the Otsutsuki Bloodline (Rainbow), which are the subsidiary Perks, he didn't know how long it would take.
If his potential limit increased, perhaps the speed at which he unlocked subsidiary Perks would be as fast as the Tenseigan.
Thinking of this, Izayoi immediately made a decision. His next goal was to upgrade the Six Paths Potential (Red) to the colored level.
At the same time, Izayoi became conflicted again.
Should he merge the Madara Uchiha red perk, or decompose it into points?
When he was young, Izayoi had experimented. Merging an identical perk would not immediately upgrade it.
Because upgrading with points was cheating, if a merged perk were to upgrade, the required points would not decrease.
Although he had never merged a red perk before, Izayoi had a premonition that for such high-level perks, merging two or three should be enough to upgrade them.
On the other hand, decomposing a red perk would randomly yield a six-figure amount of points.
If he were extremely unlucky, he might need to decompose nine red perks to accumulate nine hundred and ninety thousand points.
If he were extremely lucky, he might achieve it in one go, directly obtaining over nine hundred thousand points and upgrading a red perk to a colored perk at a 1:1 ratio.
To gamble or not to gamble?
Izayoi only hesitated for a few seconds before making his decision, muttering to himself, "Decompose all of them."
In the next instant, the points bar, which only had a four-figure amount, immediately surged to a six-figure amount, clearly displaying... [672810].
"Nice!" Izayoi couldn't help but clench his fist, shouting inwardly.
Gambling moment, victory!
Although he didn't achieve it in one go, he only had over three hundred thousand points left.
After a year passed, he could easily harvest from the Five Great Shinobi Villages and accumulate nine hundred and ninety thousand points.
If he was lucky, he might even get another red perk from Naruto, Sasuke, and Hinata.
In a joyful mood, Izayoi immediately flew back into the artificial sun, preparing to return to Earth with the giant Tenseigan.
Just as he started his journey back, Izayoi stopped, turned around, and looked at the Moon, which had a third of it cut off. A hint of shock flashed in his eyes as he said, "Such strong attraction, and... it even has automatic locking!"
He saw that the one-third of the Moon that had detached from the main body was slowly moving back towards the main body.
It wasn't drifting on its own, but being pulled by attraction.
More importantly, this attraction only targeted that specific part of the Moon. Even if someone flew through the crack, they wouldn't be affected by the attraction.
What truly shocked Izayoi was that even after a thousand years, the Six Paths: Planetary Devastation could still generate such terrifying attraction.
Was this the true power of the Six Paths?
It seemed that the gap between himself and that pair of brothers was not as simple as just the Truth-Seeking Balls and the Sage of Six Paths Mode.
However, soon after, Izayoi seemed to discover something and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Turning his head to look at the universe emitting white light, Izayoi muttered to himself, "So that seal can absorb the power of the sun to replenish energy. No wonder Kaguya Otsutsuki couldn't break free from the seal after a thousand years."
After realizing he had scared himself, Izayoi sped up and flew back to Earth.
However, Izayoi didn't notice that just as he left the Moon, in the cemetery of that desolate city, a soul that was invisible to ordinary people, like the Death God from the Dead Demon Consuming Seal, was watching him with a pair of Byakugan.
This person was wearing a white robe, with six black magatama-shaped patterns on his chest and a red spiral symbol on his back. Nine black spheres floated around his body.
The whites of his eyes and his pupils were pure white, and he had two white horns growing on his forehead.
This person was none other than Hamura Otsutsuki, the second son of Kaguya Otsutsuki. He was born inheriting Kaguya Otsutsuki's Byakugan, which was incredibly pure. With just his bloodline and talent, he awakened the Tenseigan and condensed Truth-Seeking Balls, becoming a Six Paths level powerhouse.
"Incredible..."
Looking at Izayoi flying away from the Moon at high speed, Hamura Otsutsuki murmured, "Wood Release containing the characteristics of the God Tree, my brother's eye power and physique, and my eyes, as well as the bloodline that has returned to its ancestral form with horns... A thousand years later in the Shinobi World, a descendant has actually gathered the strengths of both me and my brother. This is simply... a miracle of the Otsutsuki Clan!"
Looking at the Moon, which had been cut off by a third by the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, Hamura Otsutsuki couldn't help but twitch his mouth again and said, "Young people are just hot-tempered. Fortunately, the Six Paths: Planetary Devastation that sealed Mother cannot be undone without my brother's and my power and hand seals. Even if the Moon is cut off, it will continue to attract meteorites to repair itself. Otherwise, this descendant would have caused a huge disaster."
Finally, he glanced at the graveyard full of tombstones and sighed, "Alas... It's all my fault for not explaining clearly, causing you to misunderstand the last words. I didn't expect the Branch Family to be so extreme."
"The dead should not interfere with the world of the living. Everything is destined. I hope this young man who has inherited the power of both me and my brother can accomplish what neither I nor my brother could."
As these words fell, Hamura Otsutsuki's soul also disappeared.
The Chakra remaining in the graveyard also completely dissipated from this world.
...
Konoha in the Shinobi World.
Izayoi's Wood Clone had also finished the meeting and returned home.
Inside the traditional building where the barrier was raised, the Wood Clone received the information transmitted from the main body and immediately disappeared with the Flying Thunder God Technique.
The next second, Izayoi, who was in Tenseigan Chakra Mode, returned home.
Seeing Izayoi return, Hinata and the other two girls immediately surrounded him.
"Big Brother, you're back!"
"Izayoi-kun, are you okay?"
"Izayoi-kun, were you fighting someone on the Moon just now?"
Looking at the three girls full of concern, Izayoi dispelled the Tenseigan Chakra Mode and smiled, "Sorry for making you worry. Everything is over."
Hinata and the other two girls immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Hanabi said excitedly, "Big Brother, was it you who cut the Moon just now?"
"Yeah, was it cool?" Izayoi said with a smile, rubbing Hanabi's head.
"Mhm... It was super cool."
Hanabi and the other two girls nodded in unison, their beautiful eyes sparkling, not hiding their admiration for Izayoi.
"Do you want to know the detailed process?" Izayoi asked with a smile.
"Mhm..."
Looking at the three girls nodding like chickens pecking rice, Izayoi shook his shoulders, pretending to be uncomfortable, and said, "After fighting the enemy for so long and going back and forth to the Moon, my shoulders are so sore..."
"Big Brother, I'll give you a massage."
"Izayoi-kun, your Chakra has decreased a lot. How about you take a bite of me?"
"Izayoi-kun, I'll go get you some clothes. Let's go soak in a hot spring."
Hanabi and the other two girls, being quite sensible, pushed Izayoi towards the hot spring pool.
Izayoi, pushing his luck, said, "I want to watch Pikachu, and I want peeled grapes and sake."
"Hehe... Is just watching Pikachu enough? Big Brother, don't think that Karin-neechan and I don't know what you and Onee-chan do in the hot spring when you bathe together? Hiss... That hurts, that hurts!"
"Hanabi, if you dare to use your Byakugan to peek again, I'll train you myself." Hinata said, her face flushed.
"Karin-neechan did it too!"
"Hehe... I'm older than you, it's none of my business." Karin said with a smug smile.
"Flat-chested girl."
"What did you say?" Karin instantly flared up, looking completely defeated, and said, "I haven't grown up yet, and you're the same as me."
"When I'm the same age as Karin-neechan, I'll definitely be bigger than you." Hanabi pointed at Hinata's Big G, lifted her chin, and said, "Onee-chan's genes are right here, I definitely won't be worse than Onee-chan."
"Damn it, I'll fight you!" Karin was speechless and finally, defeated, pounced on Hanabi.
With the atmosphere set, the four of them went to the hot spring pool to bathe.
While drinking sake and eating the grapes peeled by his virtuous wife, Izayoi recounted his battle with Madara Uchiha in detail.
Hearing that Izayoi had 'gone home' for a trip and that Madara Uchiha had just happened to find a space-time passage to the Moon, and that the two had even fought, Hinata and the other two girls were instantly startled.
However, after hearing that Izayoi had used his strongest attack to send Madara Uchiha from the Moon to Earth, the three girls looked at him with admiration, like fanatical fans of an idol.
Thinking that Izayoi had also arranged for a Wood Clone to come back and deal with things, Hanabi couldn't help but ask, "Big Brother, your strength is already unrivaled in the Shinobi World, why are you still hiding your identity?"
"Unrivaled in the Shinobi World? We're still far from it." Izayoi drank the sake in one gulp, then handed the wine cup to Karin, who was warming the sake with spring water, and shook his head with a smile, saying, "Madara Uchiha and I have just stepped through the door of that dimension. If 'that person' truly exists, then there are four people in this world whose strength surpasses ours."
"Nani, there are four more?!"
Hanabi and the other two girls were shocked. Karin, who was pouring sake for Izayoi, even trembled, and the sake spilled into the spring water.
"Who is that person?" Hinata asked curiously.
"I don't know..."
Izayoi shook his head again, saying meaningfully, "So I need to go fishing."
The person Izayoi was referring to was Isshiki Otsutsuki, who came to Earth with Kaguya Otsutsuki to plant the God Tree and was also Kaguya Otsutsuki's superior.
If this person truly exists, then with their ability to freely change size and their space-time abilities, unless they actively show themselves, no one can find them, including Kaguya Otsutsuki.
For the safety of Hinata and the other two girls, Izayoi needed to use the Toneri Otsutsuki vest to go fishing.
Among the four super-standard powerhouses, in the eyes of the world, he and Nagato are currently the weakest.
And Nagato has already lost his Rinnegan and has no intention of transplanting new eyes.
If Isshiki Otsutsuki were to choose a 'vessel' for reincarnation between him and Nagato, Izayoi would definitely be the best choice.
After all, both Madara Uchiha and 'Toneri Otsutsuki' have ultimate dojutsu. This power, which requires the convergence of two extremes to obtain, definitely has the 'mark' of the Sage of Six Paths and Hamura Otsutsuki.
With Isshiki Otsutsuki's current strength, unless he forcibly reincarnates, he is no match for these brothers, even if the latter are just soul bodies.
After all, no matter how strong Isshiki Otsutsuki is, he doesn't have Truth-Seeking Balls.
Moreover, with the forced reincarnation, Isshiki Otsutsuki's time was running out.
He would absolutely not risk trying to place a Karma on Madara Uchiha and 'Toneri Otsutsuki'.
The most suitable "vessel" for reincarnation was only Izayoi.
Once Isshiki Otsutsuki came knocking, Izayoi would definitely give him a huge surprise.
As long as he could force him out of his current forced reincarnation, Izayoi would win for sure.
If Isshiki Otsutsuki didn't come knocking, then once Izayoi truly became invincible, he would automatically seek him out.
Thinking of this, Izayoi couldn't help but look forward to the future.
Perhaps it was the lingering emotions from the war, or perhaps it was the hot spring water, but as Izayoi looked at Hinata peeling grapes beside him, he suddenly covered Hanabi's eyes, leaned closer, and chuckled mischievously, "Hinata, I want to switch to a different kind of sake."
"What kind of sake? I'll go get it," Hinata said softly.
"No need to get it, you can make it," Izayoi whispered into Hinata's ear, "I want to drink... Kuchikamizake."
Swish, Hinata's little face instantly turned crimson.
Looking at Hanabi and Karin in front of her, Hinata's voice trembled as she stammered, "B-but... but Hanabi and Karin are still here."
The Yamato Nadeshiko-like girl's first thought wasn't to refuse.
"Hehe... that's simple."
Izayoi chuckled mischievously, raised a sword finger, and softly said, "Genjutsu... Darkness Genjutsu!"
"Ah... my eyes!"
"If you won't let me see, you won't succeed either... Eight Trigrams: Air Palm!"
"Water Release: Water Wall!"
