<[New Fanfic Is UP: [Naruto: I Have A Gravity Training Room]>
In the vast desert of the Land of Wind—
A massive black portal suddenly materialized in the air.
With a single kick, Gensou sent Naruto flying out of the portal, before stepping out himself, landing back onto the once war-torn, now eerily calm desert.
Being in Kaguya's Heavenly Imperial Space was still risky for Naruto.
Additionally, Gensou was wary of any hidden moves left behind by the Sage of Six Paths.
So, he seized the opportunity and used Yomi Hirasaka to send Naruto back into the real world.
Just as the two landed—
Another black portal opened, and Kaguya floated out.
At that moment, the sky began to glow golden.
Unbeknownst to them, the perilous night was nearing its end.
Bathed in the golden light, Gensou was about to speak when—
Suddenly!
He looked up and smiled.
"They're finally here."
As soon as his words fell—
A deafening sonic boom erupted from above.
Like a falling meteor, a green fireball descended from the sky, tearing through the atmosphere at breakneck speed, heading straight toward their battlefield.
When the disturbance settled and the figure halted—
What appeared to be burning green flames was, in fact, a tangible manifestation of an immense chakra, enveloping a young man clad in white robes. His pale skin and long blue-white hair, along with the magatama markings on his collar, made him stand out.
"Who are you?"
Naruto was the first to speak, eyeing Toneri with clear displeasure.
For some reason, just looking at this guy irritated him.
'Naruto…'
Having observed the Shinobi World's battle from the moon for quite some time, Toneri was no stranger to Naruto, especially given that both of them carried the power of the Sage of Six Paths.
Together, they embodied the full extent of the Sage's chakra.
In a sense, it signified the complete return of the Sage of Six Paths.
Toneri looked at Naruto.
Previously, he hadn't paid much attention to the Shinobi World, nor was he aware of Naruto's relationship with Hinata—whom he had once considered his future wife.
So, he introduced himself with polite formality:
"I am Toneri. At the Sage of Six Paths' request, I have come to aid in battle."
"Toneri?"
Naruto instinctively turned to look at Kaguya, assuming at first that she had summoned this newcomer.
But upon hearing "Sage of Six Paths," he, though still not fully aligned with the old man's ideology, felt that any reinforcements were a good thing.
With his usual enthusiasm, Naruto clapped his hands together and grinned.
"Toneri! Then let's team up and take down Kaguya and Gensou together!"
While Naruto was making his proposal—
Kaguya also turned her attention to Toneri.
The moment she saw his blue eyes, a flicker of surprise crossed her expression.
"A descendant of Hamura?"
She hadn't expected that, after a thousand years, Hamura's bloodline would remain so pure—so much so that he could awaken the Tenseigan, a rarity among their clan.
Meanwhile, Gensou's gaze was fixed on Toneri's chakra—the same kind that Naruto possessed, imbued with the power of the Sage of Six Paths.
But he wasn't particularly surprised.
"So, this is the Sage's final move."
At this level of combat, how many individuals in the entire Shinobi World could even participate?
By simple deduction, it was obvious that the biggest possibility was someone from the moon—a person who, upon obtaining the Byakugan, could evolve it into the Tenseigan and instantly ascend to Six Paths-level.
However, for Toneri to evolve from a blind state to the Tenseigan in such a short period, the Sage must have exerted significant effort.
Now, it seemed clear—the Sage had placed all his remaining strength into this.
Gensou's Rinnegan swept between Naruto and Toneri, observing them.
The Sage of Six Paths, who now only existed in chakra form, was no longer as powerful as he once was.
For him to imbue two individuals with Six Paths-level power was already his absolute limit.
If he were any stronger, he wouldn't have needed to rely on others in the first place.
"The meal is served. Now, all that's missing is the final utensil."
Gensou's gaze locked onto the sun and moon seals on Naruto's palms.
He already had a plan.
At that moment, Toneri, instead of accepting Naruto's invitation, shook his head and turned his gaze toward Gensou with a serious expression.
"The primary objective is to eliminate Gensou. This is the Sage's command."
Neither he nor Naruto fully understood why their first target wasn't Kaguya—the so-called progenitor of chakra and the most dangerous figure in history.
But since the Sage had explicitly stated this—
It was evident that, in his eyes, Gensou was now even more formidable than Kaguya.
Toneri didn't know much about Gensou.
He had never imagined that the Shinobi World would produce such a being—someone who could not only rival but surpass the progenitor of chakra, the very entity that had been feared for a thousand years by the moon's shinobi.
But reality was what it was.
And Toneri chose to trust the Sage's judgment.
Naruto, however, looked somewhat reluctant.
As for Kaguya—
Hearing this declaration, or rather, hearing Gensou being deemed a higher priority target than herself, left her in an unpleasant mood.
As the progenitor of chakra on this planet, it was the first time she had ever experienced being underestimated.
Before anyone could say more—
Gensou, now the center of attention, casually shook his sleeve and calmly said:
"Are you all done talking?"
"If so, then let's begin."
Omnidirectional Art: Storm Release - Dragon Fang!
Dozens of black energy beams shot out from Gensou's palm, forming long, slender black dragons that streaked toward Kaguya, Toneri, and Naruto.
Understanding full well how absurdly powerful Gensou's Six Paths techniques were, the three of them immediately launched their respective defensive measures.
The battle erupted once more.
The thunderous roars of impact, hundreds of times louder than war drums, shook the land as the ground trembled under the sheer force of their clash.
Dust surged into the air, the sky darkened, and the battlefield was engulfed in chaos.
Amidst it all—
Gensou, now facing three opponents alone, took a step forward.
His black hair whipped wildly as his immense, domineering aura exploded forth.
Before his three opponents could close in—
Gensou moved first.
With speed so extreme that he seemed to split into three afterimages, he appeared before each of them, unleashing three punches that could shake the heavens.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Kaguya, Toneri, and Naruto retaliated with their own punches, but—
The moment their fists collided, they felt an unprecedented force surging toward them.
Their expressions changed.
The sound of bones cracking echoed as all three were violently sent flying backward.
Visible shockwaves rippled through the air as they were hurled away.
Having sent all three reeling with a single blow, Gensou took his second step forward.
Yomi Hirasaka—activated!
In an instant, Gensou appeared beside Toneri.
Without any unnecessary movements, without any dazzling effects—
He threw another punch.
Toneri's face paled.
Fully aware of the sheer destructive power behind that punch, he spread his hands wide, releasing beam after beam of green energy spheres—each capable of piercing Six Paths-level bodies and even draining chakra—toward Gensou.
