"Kyojin, after you escaped to the Ninja World, did the Branch Family of the Ōtsutsuki Clan send anyone to pursue you?" Asana asked.
"The Branch Family likely sent some puppets controlled by the Tenseigan Eye power to find me."
"Are these the puppets?" Asana asked, taking out the paralyzed puppets from her sealing scroll.
Otsutsuki Kyojin glanced at the puppets and nodded.
"So, you intended to tell us, in the final moments of your life, that the Ōtsutsuki Branch Family on the Moon is preparing to destroy the Ninja World, so we can prepare in advance, correct?" Uchiha En asked.
"That's right. The Ōtsutsuki Branch Family itself isn't terrifying. The key is that the Tenseigan's power is too immense. Since the Gedo Statue is still in the Ninja World, someone here must have awakened the Rinnegan. Only a corresponding Sage's Eye can counter the Tenseigan... *cough cough*!" Otsutsuki Kyojin started coughing violently before finishing his sentence, spitting out blood.
Seeing this, Uchiha En took Nijo out of his Ninja Tool Pouch. Nijo yawned, rubbed her blurry, sleepy eyes, and asked Uchiha En, "What do you need me for?"
"Nijo, didn't you create a Truth-Seeking Orb before? You should have some understanding of Six Paths-level power! Can you resolve the Tenseigan Eye power inside him?"
"Tenseigan Eye power?" Nijo became interested upon hearing this. "En, was this Hyuga Clan man injured by the Tenseigan?"
"He's not from the Hyuga Clan, he's from the Ōtsutsuki Clan." Uchiha En then explained the situation regarding Otsutsuki Kyojin to Nijo.
Nijo's eyes lit up upon hearing this. She jumped down from Uchiha En's arms and looked at Otsutsuki Kyojin with great interest.
When Nijo first appeared, Otsutsuki Kyojin didn't pay much attention to her. She looked like a harmless little cat, and even if she could talk, it wasn't that surprising.
But when Nijo approached him, Otsutsuki Kyojin sensed a familiar power on her. This power was very similar to the Gedo Statue—no, not similar, it was exactly the same.
Otsutsuki Kyojin looked nervous. As someone whose family had guarded the Gedo Statue for generations, Otsutsuki Kyojin naturally knew exactly what the Gedo Statue was.
The fluctuations emanating from this cat were identical to the Gedo Statue's, meaning she was likely a Ten-Tails-like entity.
'Did a new Ten-Tails just appear in the Ninja World?' Thinking of this, Otsutsuki Kyojin's face instantly turned even paler.
"Kyojin, don't be so nervous. Nijo has no ill intentions."
"Nijo? Is that the cat's name? What exactly is she?" Otsutsuki Kyojin asked.
Uchiha En was slightly surprised by this. He hadn't expected Otsutsuki Kyojin's perception to be so sharp; he seemed to have already guessed Nijo's identity.
"Your senses are indeed sharp! That's right, just as you guessed, Nijo is also considered a Ten-Tails."
"She's really the Ten-Tails! Then she..."
"Don't worry! Nijo is different from the previous Ten-Tails." Uchiha En then told Otsutsuki Kyojin some things about Nijo.
Otsutsuki Kyojin listened, dumbfounded, and then looked at Uchiha En with an extremely complex expression.
Who exactly was this man in front of him, capable of creating a Ten-Tails!
Seeing Otsutsuki Kyojin's expression, Asana smiled and asked, "Kyojin, En has already told you Nijo's origins. Can you trust us now?"
Otsutsuki Kyojin looked at Asana, then at Uchiha En and Nijo, nodded heavily, and said, "I trust you."
Seeing Otsutsuki Kyojin's declaration, Uchiha En signaled Nijo to first help Otsutsuki Kyojin remove the Tenseigan Eye power from his body.
Nijo first roughly sensed the Tenseigan Eye power inside Otsutsuki Kyojin. Then, to understand the Tenseigan's power more clearly, Nijo jumped directly into Otsutsuki Kyojin's arms.
The moment Nijo jumped into his arms, Otsutsuki Kyojin completely froze.
Otsutsuki Kyojin had always heard stories on the Moon about how evil the Ten-Tails was; the hatred and fear of the Ten-Tails couldn't be erased by a simple declaration of trust.
A moment later, Nijo fully understood the Tenseigan Eye power. She jumped down from Otsutsuki Kyojin's arms, and only then did Otsutsuki Kyojin breathe a sigh of relief.
"I've checked. The Eye power inside this man has the aura of Yin-Yang Release. The power level is the same as the Truth-Seeking Orb we simulated before. It aligns with what you said; it is indeed Six Paths-level power," Nijo said to Uchiha En.
"Then can you resolve it?"
"Of course! If I can't even resolve this tiny bit of Tenseigan Eye power, how are we supposed to operate on the Moon? Alright, leave the rest to me!" After speaking, Nijo closed her eyes and began communicating with the Tenseigan Eye power inside Otsutsuki Kyojin.
Otsutsuki Kyojin had mentioned earlier that he was affected by the Tenseigan Eye power when entering the passage.
Uchiha En felt that the residual Eye power inside him shouldn't be much.
This was indeed the case. With Nijo's help, this trace of Eye power was quickly decomposed into Yin Release and Yang Release Chakra.
Nijo directed the Yin Release Chakra toward Otsutsuki Kyojin's eyes, while simultaneously using Yang Release Chakra to repair Otsutsuki Kyojin's injured body internally.
However, this small amount of Yang Release Chakra alone was not enough to fully resolve Otsutsuki Kyojin's injuries.
So, Nijo immediately called for Asana's help, asking her to treat Otsutsuki Kyojin's injuries using Medical Ninjutsu.
Soon, Otsutsuki Kyojin's old internal injuries stabilized under the combined efforts of Nijo and Asana, and Otsutsuki Kyojin's pale complexion gradually regained some color.
"I never thought I would be saved by the Ten-Tails one day," Otsutsuki Kyojin said with a complex expression, his injuries mostly recovered.
"Hey! Don't be ungrateful! If En hadn't asked me, I wouldn't have saved you!" Nijo said, rolling her eyes.
"Sorry, I didn't mean that, I just..."
"You just find it strange to be saved by your lifelong perceived enemy, right?" Asana asked with a smile.
Otsutsuki Kyojin nodded, looking embarrassed.
"Enough! Let's not talk about that anymore. Otsutsuki Kyojin, where is the passage to the Moon?" Uchiha En asked, changing the subject.
"I'll take you there." After speaking, Otsutsuki Kyojin led the way, bringing Uchiha En and the other two to a lake shore.
"The passage is at the bottom of the lake."
"En, should we leave now?" Asana asked.
"No rush. Let's go see Orochimaru first! I have something I want to ask him."
