The seal on Senju Hashirama's palm was that of Yang power, and the one on Uchiha Madara's was of Yin power. As long as they struck the target simultaneously, it would be a Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei, combining the primary attributes of Yin and Yang, supplemented by the five chakra natures of wind, lightning, earth, water, and fire.
Having been sealed by this jutsu for millennia, Kaguya Otsutsuki felt the intensely familiar power of Yin and Yang. At the last moment, she finally broke free from the Ullambana Bridge's spiritual suppression and snapped back to full awareness.
Her expression was extremely ugly. You think I'm going to fall into the same trap twice?
She thrust out her left and right hands, grabbing both Hashirama's and Madara's wrists by a hair's breadth.
The two men pushed forward with all their might, but Kaguya Otsutsuki was the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki. Despite her fair palms and slender fingers, the moment she exerted a little force, fine blue veins popped on the backs of her hands. The power of this "delicate woman" far surpassed that of the two pure-blooded men.
"Damn it!" Ino cursed.
She formed hand seals with lightning speed.
She had never been this fast in her entire life.
Six hand seals a second? She was performing beyond her limits, approaching a speed of eight.
Not only was Ino forming seals, but her Susanoo was mirroring her actions. Feeling that even this wasn't fast enough, she used the Spirit Transformation Technique to separate a small part of her spirit, which also began forming seals.
The Susanoo, her physical body, and her spirit—the three were forming different seals, yet they could be effectively combined into a single jutsu.
Ino immediately unleashed the strongest jutsu of the Yamanaka clan: "Ninja Art: Mind God Transfer Jutsu!"
She directly attempted to replace Kaguya's consciousness with her own, trying to seize control of her body.
There was no rapport between them whatsoever; this was a complete brute-force takeover.
Ino's consciousness charged into Kaguya's spiritual world and immediately began to devour her memories.
She saw a God Tree from a more ancient era and an Otsutsuki Isshiki who, despite his gentlemanly demeanor and elegant movements, carried an air of supreme condescension.
At the same time, she experienced the emotions Kaguya felt back then.
Fear, terror, anger—a mixture of many emotions.
According to the rules of the Otsutsuki clan, for a Ten-Tails to grow into a God Tree, it had to devour an Otsutsuki.
Isshiki and Kaguya arrived in the shinobi world together. Kaguya was meant to be the sacrifice, to be devoured by the Ten-Tails to become a God Tree and bear a Chakra Fruit, which would then be consumed by the high-ranking Isshiki.
The Otsutsuki clan had operated this way for millennia.
They weren't ones to drain the pond to catch the fish. Their clan was small; would they really kill one Otsutsuki for every tree they planted? Even a three-child policy wouldn't be enough to sustain such losses.
That's where the "Wedge" was indispensable. A vessel would be chosen in advance and implanted with a "Wedge." Then, after the sacrificial Otsutsuki was devoured by the Ten-Tails, they would be resurrected within the vessel with the help of their clan members.
But Otsutsuki Isshiki, the one presiding this time, did not do this. He believed the existence of a "Wedge" would affect the quality of the Chakra Fruit. He secretly killed Kaguya's "Wedge" and forced her to feed the Ten-Tails with her own body.
This was tantamount to forcing Kaguya to her death.
At that time, Kaguya was as timid as a rabbit, completely backed into a corner by Isshiki. What could she do? Isshiki thought she would submit, but in reality, even a cornered rabbit will bite. And so, Isshiki was done for—or at least, most of him was.
As Ino continued to peer into Kaguya's deepest memories, a counterattack came, just as expected.
"Get out! I command you to get out!" Kaguya shrieked in a furious panic, abandoning her pretentious royal address.
She was desperate. Disregarding the cost to herself, she forcefully expelled Ino's consciousness from her spiritual world.
Ino had truly taken the opportunity to grab what she could. At the last moment, without a closer look, she haphazardly harvested another portion of Kaguya's memories.
"Cough, cough, cough—!" Back in her own body, she couldn't help but cough violently. The chakra in her meridians raged like boiling water, impossible to suppress in the heat of the moment. The mind transfer had been a complete failure. However, that momentary mental clash had still made Kaguya falter. Using that brief window, Hashirama and Madara's Yin-Yang seals struck her body.
"Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei!"
Endless torrents of rock and earth flew into the sky, fusing together through the power of Yin-Yang Release. This Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei had the effect of absorbing and suppressing chakra. Kaguya struggled twice but couldn't break free. Then, gravity pulled in countless grains of sand and soil, coalescing tightly into a massive sphere with Kaguya at its core. There wasn't a single gap in the earth; it looked like a naturally formed sphere.
Ino raised her palm, and the sphere flew higher and higher, while the Rinne Sharingan on Kaguya Otsutsuki's forehead showed signs of closing rapidly.
She let out a soft sigh of relief. It was finally over! Her next step was to go home and make babies. Would the environment on the moon be better? Enjoying the natural scenery, with the sky as a blanket and the earth as a bed, free from the constraints of clothing, finding true harmony between spirit and flesh...
Just as her imagination was running wild, she saw Kaguya Otsutsuki's eyes snap open. The Rinne Sharingan of the progenitor of chakra once again glowed with a dazzling red light.
This is bad!
Before she could react.
With a deafening "BOOM," the sphere, which had been sealed so securely, exploded from the inside out.
Kaguya Otsutsuki's face was filled with killing intent. "Little brat, you think you can seal me? You're far from ready!"
A dark Zetsu slithered out from her sleeve, baring its teeth at Ino. He had been scared half to death just now.
Fortunately, the Yin-Yang seal Ino created had a flaw; its internal structure was imperfect. The 8,000-year-old matriarch hadn't wasted her long years of being sealed; she had more or less studied the Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei developed by the Sage of Six Paths.
After all, she was the mother of the Sage of Six Paths; her natural talent was extremely high.
I don't need to know how to build a car, I just need to know how to wreck it.
"Do you have any other ideas?" Senju Hashirama asked in a low voice.
Ino rested her hands on her knees, trying hard to regulate her breathing. Between the Yin-Yang power and the Mind God Transfer, she was more exhausted than anyone present. She had already performed far beyond her normal level; what more could they ask for?
"We fight. Fight until the very end." She opened the Nai-He Bridge again and handed a soul-summoning bell to Hashirama.
"Ring the bell. Ring it toward my paper bridge. In theory, someone important to you will be summoned at random. As for who it is, that's up to luck."
"Will I summon Tobirama?"
"I don't know. This time it's random."
Senju Hashirama foolishly took the soul-summoning bell, standing before the paper bridge with a bewildered expression, ready to call for backup.
Suddenly, a slightly obscure wave of energy appeared, and a figure levitating in a cross-legged position materialized before them.
Ino was overjoyed, almost laughing out loud. She quickly stopped Hashirama. We're saved, no need to call for backup.
