After dealing with the Hamura Golem, Tomoki, led by Orochimaru, quickly arrived inside the Moon Palace.
The two did not head directly to the location of the Tenseigan. Upon arriving at the palace, Tomoki immediately activated his Mangekyo Sharingan.
Although his ocular power was not enough to activate a complete Susanoo, using his innate Mangekyo abilities was not a problem.
Tomoki's Mangekyo abilities, whether Shinatsuhiko or Kagutsuchi, were both weak and remarkably low-cost.
After locating Toneri, Tomoki and Orochimaru swapped roles, with Tomoki taking the lead.
Toneri, after his previous failed attempt using the Hamura Golem, was now in a panic.
With a complete lineage, Toneri knew that when a descendant of Hagoromo developed their bloodline to a very high degree, they could master a powerful ocular ability called Susanoo.
However, the Surtur template Tomoki had just used completely exceeded Toneri's understanding.
Under Tomoki's endless array of techniques, Toneri no longer had his initial arrogance.
Especially after using the Tenseigan to discover that Tomoki and Orochimaru's path was heading straight for him, Toneri finally stopped sitting still and pretending to be calm.
Toneri's true body began to move, and his action was very decisive: one word, run!
Tomoki, sensing Toneri's movement, no longer accommodated Orochimaru and sped up.
Three figures streaked through the Moon Palace.
Tomoki, who had locked onto Toneri, expanded his perception range and quickly discovered something ahead in Toneri's escape direction.
It was an immensely spacious room, and inside the room was a giant orb of light.
It was the Giant Tenseigan. Even just perceiving the Tenseigan through his ocular ability, Tomoki could feel waves of powerful pressure emanating from it.
Is this the Tenseigan, which surpasses the Byakugan and Sharingan, and is on par with the Rinnegan?
Having felt the pressure of the Rinnegan during his battle with Nagato, Tomoki found that this Giant Tenseigan was more than twice as strong as the Rinnegan in Nagato's eyes.
It wasn't that a composite Tenseigan was stronger than Nagato.
Rather, it was simply a kind of oppressive force, the pressure it brought to Tomoki's Sharingan.
Tomoki began to ponder in his mind; it finally felt a bit like a cultivation system.
Is this the pure suppression brought by a difference in rank?
Without even fighting, even if Tomoki wasn't a transmigrator, just by'seeing' that Tenseigan with his Sharingan, Tomoki knew that thing was stronger than his Sharingan.
Unlike the pair of Rinnegan in Nagato's eyes, which, while oppressive, felt very insubstantial.
Tomoki thought of the origin of this Tenseigan, which further confirmed his previous suspicions.
It was indeed a small trick by the Six Paths Sage.
This branch on the moon was left by Hamura, so it made sense that the Six Paths Sage would give his brother some face and not cause trouble on the moon.
In the chase, Toneri had already arrived next to the Tenseigan.
Toneri clearly understood that Orochimaru and Tomoki, these Ninja World natives, coming to the moon again and again wasn't because he, Toneri, was cute; their target was definitely the moon's treasure, the Tenseigan.
In an instant, the Tenseigan in Tomoki's perception flared brightly, increasing the pressure on Tomoki by more than tenfold.
Tomoki, who already knew the route, did not continue to suffer this torment. He closed his Sharingan, no longer perceiving that Tenseigan.
Immediately, Tomoki's feeling of being suppressed disappeared, and he felt a sense of relief.
However, immediately after, Tomoki felt an obstruction on his body, and his speed slowed down a notch.
Repulsion!
Toneri controlled the Tenseigan, attempting to prevent Tomoki and Orochimaru from advancing further.
If before they had moved freely and unimpeded within the Moon Palace, now Tomoki felt like he was sinking into quicksand, with omnipresent obstructions making his body feel as if it were laden with weights.
Gradually, Tomoki's speed began to slow, and Orochimaru had caught up.
Then, the two began to advance with considerable difficulty together.
The closer they got to Toneri's location, the slower their movements became.
Unlike Nagato's Shinra Tensei, which was a one-time burst—as long as you withstood it, you could move freely afterward—under Toneri's control, the Tenseigan demonstrated its true power.
Just a common ability, gravity and repulsion, possessed by both the Rinnegan and Tenseigan, caused the two to fall into trouble.
Tomoki was strong, but this kind of enemy, who could control the field from a great distance, still disgusted Tomoki immensely.
He couldn't just launch a Supernova from such a long distance; that would be too wasteful.
Like being caught in a quagmire, Tomoki and Orochimaru honestly and slowly advanced towards the Tenseigan's location.
After spending a lot of time, Tomoki and Orochimaru finally arrived outside the room where the Tenseigan was placed.
Upon reaching here, both felt as if a wall was pressing against their bodies with every movement.
Seeing Tomoki and Orochimaru, who had already arrived outside, Toneri did not panic; instead, a triumphant smile appeared on his face.
Two streams of light erupted from the Tenseigan, directly destroying the outer wall of the room and assailing Tomoki and Orochimaru.
At the same time, the power that had previously felt like a wall pressing against their bodies changed; they now felt as if a mountain was pressing down on them.
Forget dodging; even moving was a luxury.
The two streams of light hit Tomoki and Orochimaru without fail.
Orochimaru, quite decisively, had his head directly blown off; he did nothing but pull out a sealing scroll!
As for Tomoki, he instantly transformed into his Surtur form, withstood the attack, shook his head slightly, and then returned to his original state.
"Bang!"
With a soft sound, the sealing scroll Orochimaru had left behind automatically opened, revealing the item sealed within.
A lifeless body!
