After opening the Box of Bliss, Mokgetsu's true body was the first to enter the underground research base.
"Blazing Sun Mokgetsu! What's going on, did Konoha attack us?" A Grass Ninja, who was not sucked into the Box of Bliss, looked at the arriving person in horror.
"The Box of Bliss is open. Even Blazing Sun Mokgetsu won't be a match for our leader once the wish is fulfilled." A Grass Ninja executive quickly said.
He thought that since the Box of Bliss was the ultimate Six Paths Ninja Tool of legend that grants wishes, it should be more than capable of dealing with a young strong ninja from the Five Great Ninja Villages.
Mokgetsu wasn't interested in talking with the Grass Ninjas. He casually swung his Qi Force to resolve them and then walked over to Uzumaki Karei.
The Shadow Clone, seeing the arrival of the true body, directly headed toward the deep entrance where light couldn't penetrate, entering the Box of Bliss.
Based on his sensing, the Box of Bliss could not block the Flying Thunder God Jutsu, but Mokgetsu was a cautious person; he needed to try to be sure.
A second later, Mokgetsu's Shadow Clone appeared beside Karei.
This time, Mokgetsu could truly confirm that as long as he mastered the Flying Thunder God Jutsu, he could easily exit the Box of Bliss without being trapped.
After accomplishing its mission, the Shadow Clone voluntarily disbanded, letting the memories flow back to the true body.
At this moment, Kakashi and Obito also rushed in one after another.
"Ah, Teacher Mokgetsu, you've already resolved everything." Obito, who excitedly barged into the underground base, was stunned by the sight of the fallen Grass Ninjas.
Earlier, he was worried Mokgetsu's strength would resolve the enemies too quickly, so he pushed his Breathing Technique to the limit to speed up, but still didn't make it in time.
"Is this what they call the Box of Bliss?" Kakashi's gaze didn't linger on the fallen Grass Ninjas for more than a second; he focused instead on the conspicuous and bizarre large box in the base.
"That shockwave that broke through the clouds just now was caused by it, right? What's its essence, a large-scale attack ninja tool?" Nara Suzaku was also scrutinizing the Box of Bliss.
"The essence of the Box of Bliss is still unclear, but the mission may not be over yet; the leader of the Grass Village went inside the box." Mokgetsu shook his head in response.
Upon hearing this, Aburame Shikuro controlled some insects to fly into that dark entrance, attempting to probe the situation inside the box.
"Insects, connection lost," Aburame Shikuro reported tersely.
As soon as his insects flew into the Box of Bliss, Aburame Shikuro could no longer control them with his Secret Technique, as if they vanished.
"How about sending a Shadow Clone to check it out?" Obito volunteered.
Upon hearing the biggest target was still alive, Obito regained his fighting spirit.
However, this Box of Bliss looked too strange; even Obito hesitated to enter with his true body.
"This box looks suspicious; let's test it with a Shadow Clone first." Kakashi nodded, preparing to split his clone with Obito.
Just then, a figure gradually emerged from the deep darkness.
"He's still alive." Kakashi quickly pulled out a kunai, preparing to fight. As the core mission target, he immediately recognized the person stepping out as the Leader of the Grass Village, Yokokawa Tsutomu.
Yokokawa Tsutomu slowly stepped out from the darkness, his aura becoming exceptionally eerie.
"Impermanence, I am the lea..." The stepping Yokokawa Tsutomu looked bewildered at the scene before him.
He wasn't surprised the Grass Ninjas were all down; with insufficient Chakra, they couldn't possibly face Impermanence in full form.
But the sudden appearance of eight Konoha Ninjas, what on earth is this? Could it be he actually stayed in the Box of Bliss for a long time and the Konoha Ninja Squad came over?
"Blazing Sun Mokgetsu? Well then, let me test this powerful new force on you." Yokokawa Tsutomu noticed the most dazzling ninja.
If it were before, Yokokawa Tsutomu would think it was a three-seven split with Mokgetsu, Mokgetsu taking him down in three moves and himself lasting till the seventh.
But now was different from before; with the reinforcement from the Box of Bliss, he had broken past the limits of a ninja, becoming a higher, stronger existence.
Don't mention Mokgetsu, even if the Yellow Flash plus the Sannin came together, Yokokawa Tsutomu wouldn't fear.
"I have already ascended into godhood!" Feeling the endless surge of power within his body, Yokokawa Tsutomu bore a bright smile.
Obito scratched his head, feeling the enemy before him wasn't too smart; testing your power on Sage Mokgetsu, did you think you were the Six Paths Sage?
"Hidden Grass Style: Breaking Fist!"
Yokokawa Tsutomu gathered a massive amount of Chakra in his fist and charged out with a swoosh.
Bam!
A tremendous crash rang, Yokokawa Tsutomu got knocked back at an even faster speed, slamming hard into the Box of Bliss.
[Name: Yokokawa Tsutomu (In the midst of enlightenment)]
[Chakra: 111000]
[Skills: Fire Attribute Chakra Nature Changes (Master Level: 2800/15000)...]
Mokgetsu lightly shook his fist, shaking his head inwardly; with less than ten Master Level skills, and mediocre skill proficiency, with this kind of strength wanting to ascend to godhood, he worried he might have hit Yokokawa Tsutomu too hard and killed him outright.
Obito wore an expression as if he expected this.
Kakashi's lip twitched; he almost activated the Transparent World just now because the Grass Ninja Leader was genuinely fast, but he had chosen Mokgetsu as his opponent.
Rising up again, Yokokawa Tsutomu was heated up.
This can't be right; he was already this strong, how could he not react to Mokgetsu's Taijutsu?
"Blazing Sun Mokgetsu indeed has some skill, you are qualified to witness the stance of a true powerhouse." Dodging Kakashi and the others' attack, Yokokawa Tsutomu regained his composure and confidence.
The power he gained from the Box of Bliss hadn't yet been fully utilized; no matter how strong Mokgetsu was, he was at best a mortal, no match for his Divine Power.
