Jugo looked at the large, giant eye with apprehension, feeling the energy within it, he sensed that it was still connected to Hamura.
But it didn't matter, he could easily sever that connection with his powers, at the very least, if Hamura tried to stop him, he could use that connection to curse his soul.
Jugo fixed his gaze on the eye, then ripped out one of his own eyes. The image of the Tenseigan remained fixed in it, the next moment, he squeezed, destroying it. He felt a large amount of chakra leave him, but then, a muffled scream rang out again.
The giant eye trembled, then calmed down, the connection was severed.
A large amount of chakra rushed into Jugo's empty eye socket, slowly forming a new eye, as if he had never lost it, Toneri just stood there, saying nothing.
Jugo placed his hand on the tenseigan, feeling that there were hundreds of thousands of soul fragments trapped within it.
In each eye, a remnant of the soul still remained, this left Jugo ecstatic.
He would use these soul fragments, corrupt them and transform them into curses, making this thing a gigantic cluster of curses.
First, sever the connection of these soul fragments with their original souls, avoiding issues like "identity", then corrupt this thing to its core.
Smiling slightly, he began to prepare a ritual, he directly ripped off an arm as a sacrifice to pull this thing into the Tenebrous World.
When a huge gate appeared above the giant eye, the eye was sucked in, appearing directly above Jugo's castle. The original Jugo was already in the Tenebrous World, he raised his hand and pointed directly at the Tenseigan.
A large amount of dark energy began to slowly fill the core, while Jugo began to sever the connection between the eyes and their original owners.
A two-pronged approach.
He was almost certain that this would serve as a vessel for his mythical creature form, he thought that in the future it would be a giant eye... he could already be part of the Cthulhu mythos.
While the original body was having fun with the Giant Tenseigan, satisfied that it had easily solved the problem of the receptacle, the Snake Clone was observing the lunar terrain with interest.
Sure, now that the Tenseigan was gone, the artificial sun no longer worked, but for Jugo, darkness was no different from light, he could see perfectly there, even without light.
Still, this internal ecosystem would likely die out in a short time without the giant Tenseigan.
Lost in thought, he began to consider the idea of moving his base to the moon. The biggest problem was the light source, but that wasn't a problem at all, it was simply a matter of capturing sunlight, transitioning from a mystical to a technological system.
Of course, the neighbor Hamura's problem hadn't completely disappeared and besides, he was probably on Hagoromo's radar now.
Thoughtfully, he decided not to focus on the moon until he dealt with Kaguya. Instead, he would let Toneri remain there and send Orochimaru and a group of scientists to transform this place into a habitable environment.
Orochimaru would probably be happy to come here, just in case. He would only keep werewolves here, he didn't want Hamura to put some traitor on his side. He didn't know what kind of power someone with a thousand years of life had, even if it was just a soul.
He decided to leave a snake clone here as well.
But Jugo's eyes soon turned to the souls trapped on the moon, he licked his lips and transformed into a Wraith, heading straight for them.
No, he wasn't going to eat them, although souls of such high quality really made him hungry, but he decided to try transforming these guys in the Tenebrous World. The number of souls he obtained from the deaths of his followers was still low, there were thousands of souls here and all of them were of good quality.
He wanted to see if he could transform them into demons and deviants to serve him.
But while Jugo was having fun, he sensed something.
One of their believers outside the village had just died, but the problem was that his soul didn't enter the Tenebrous World!
Before Jugo's surprised eyes, still within the Tenebrous World, he set the Tenseigan aside for a moment and returned to his throne.
The next moment, he leaned back in his throne and waved his hand.
The impression of that believer's soul rushed toward him, the impression had a pale, faded red hue, there was no longer a direct connection to a soul.
Jugo's eyes closed as he entered a state of cognition, the next moment he opened them, his eyes were completely black.
He didn't move, but he saw exactly what that believer had seen before he died.
The believer was openly wearing the symbol of the Father of Devils, a metal chain hanging around his neck, but he passed by two people.
Jugo recognized them immediately, Hidan and Kakuzu.
Hidan was complaining to Kakuzu about something and Kakuzu wasn't paying much attention, but the moment Hidan passed by the believer, he stopped. Jugo sensed a demonic energy emanating from Hidan, but no one else besides him saw it.
At that moment, Hidan turned around, his face filled with rage and attacked Jugo's follower. Needless to say, that follower was sacrificed to Jashin.
Jugo's anger flared up, not because his believer had died, no, but because the soul that should have belonged to him had been taken!
Jugo's eyes returned to normal, but the energy of the Tenebrous World rippled violently, the rage growing within him.
-Jashin... did that guy really steal my soul?!- A violent look appeared on Jugo's face. -Looks like this world is about to get one less demon, the next moment, Jugo disappeared from his throne, he was going to Hidan personally!
