Upon entering the space of the Box of Bliss, endless darkness greeted him.
But Mokgetsu had many perception-related abilities, and even in pitch blackness, he could sense that this space was quite large, greatly inconsistent with the real size of the box.
Mokgetsu wasn't too surprised, as it was likely the handiwork of the Six Paths Sage.
The Six Paths Sage had even created a moon to seal Kaguya, so creating an extraordinary box wasn't a big deal.
Curiously, Mokgetsu wandered within the box's space, carefully sensing the internal Fuinjutsu, which was different from what he felt during his research outside.
"Human, do you wish for endless longevity and limitless power? As long as you give enough Chakra, I can fulfill all your desires."
A slightly hoarse voice came from all directions.
"Fulfill all my desires? Can you help me resurrect the Six Paths Sage?" Mokgetsu asked curiously.
He couldn't tell if it was his imagination, but the dark space seemed to have a subtle hint of red.
After a while, the hoarse voice came again.
"Of course, as long as the Chakra is sufficient, any wish can be granted."
"Alright, then my wish is to have the ability to grant wishes," Mokgetsu said matter-of-factly.
The hoarse voice fell silent again.
Satoru seemed resigned; after being sealed for so many years, it was his first time encountering such a person.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't forcefully control Mokgetsu, he wouldn't have wasted his breath trying to deceive him.
"Gather Chakra; you must have enough Chakra to gain the chance to make a wish," Satoru emphasized.
"You can first pour the Chakra in your body into the box, as you already possess considerable Chakra."
"I see." Mokgetsu nodded, throwing a Flying Thunder God Kunai in a certain direction.
Satoru was surprised by the approaching Kunai, shocked that Mokgetsu could sense his position in such complete darkness. Was it a coincidence?
Satoru swung his sharp claws, trying to swat away the incoming Kunai.
Swish!
In the next instant, Mokgetsu activated the Flying Thunder God Jutsu, appearing in front of Satoru's claws, unleashing a Bursting Fist imbued with Armament Aura.
BOOM!!
Satoru's claws, which were even harder than steel, shattered under Mokgetsu's blow, the intense pain making him gasp.
The sheer force of Mokgetsu's punch made Satoru doubt himself. Was this truly human strength and defense? Maybe Mokgetsu was the real monster.
Satoru swiftly utilized his powers to recover, then opened his wide mouth to spray a Chakra ray at Mokgetsu.
Originally, he intended to trick Mokgetsu into wasting his Chakra before making a move, but Mokgetsu wasn't falling for it.
Swish!
Mokgetsu instantly moved in front of Satoru again, delivering a heavy punch that slammed him hard into the ground.
From the first hit, Mokgetsu had placed a Flying Thunder God Jutsu mark on Satoru's body.
He then took out Enma, infused it with a portion of Chakra and Armament, switched from Breath of Rock to Breath of Thunder, and his figure flashed quickly.
Satoru had just gotten up when six slashes descended, severing his legs and wings.
"Who are you?" Satoru couldn't help but ask.
He knew that someone capable of leaving marks in the Box of Bliss wasn't simple, but he hadn't expected Mokgetsu's strength to be this formidable.
Rather than saying Mokgetsu was particularly strong, it would be more accurate to say he was peculiar.
He didn't understand how Mokgetsu could see in such a lightless environment, a skill that should have been his own.
Moreover, Mokgetsu showed no fear in this confined darkness, rendering Satoru's innate advantage useless.
Combined with Mokgetsu's Space-Time Ninjutsu, Satoru found himself almost powerless.
Mokgetsu wasn't interested in answering Satoru's question; he shook his head with regret and said, "I thought this was the work of the Six Paths Sage, but it doesn't seem so. Too weak."
Satoru's true form was much weaker than Mokgetsu expected, not even rivaling the Tailed Beasts. Originally prepared to use the Flying Thunder God Jutsu to escape, Mokgetsu found Satoru was being thoroughly thrashed.
Tough, the fist Satoru had just reattached had hardened.
"If not for Hagoromo sealing me for thousands of years, I could swallow a small thing like you in one gulp," Satoru raged, launching a frenzied attack on Mokgetsu.
But all of Satoru's attacks were seen through by Mokgetsu. With a few swipes, he chopped off Satoru's limbs again.
"You say you were sealed by the Six Paths Sage. Do you have any proof that he sealed you, such as other similar beings also being sealed?" Mokgetsu prodded.
He realized that Satoru seemed a bit dull-witted; unclear if it was because of the long seal or just his nature.
"Moryo, Hagoromo couldn't kill us and could only seal us," Satoru said proudly.
Mokgetsu casually decapitated Satoru.
Watching the still-moving body, Mokgetsu acknowledged Satoru's strong vitality indeed.
Compared to Hidan, who needed to sew his body back together, Satoru's body regenerated itself over time.
"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bomb!"
Mokgetsu spewed a sea of flames, turning a part of Satoru's body into black ash to see how he would recover.
After a short period, Satoru regrew a new body.
"I heard Moryo was sealed by a witch, which doesn't prove the Six Paths Sage sealed you." Mokgetsu dismissed Satoru's evidence.
Uncertain if it was because he was fully enraged, Satoru didn't answer Mokgetsu's question, instead desperately attacking him until he realized he couldn't touch Mokgetsu at all before speaking again.
