At the current timeline.
Above the moon, the two floated quietly.
"I sense an Otsutsuki aura here. There should be another clan member," Kinshiki said, frowning.
He carefully recalled in his mind. That Urashiki guy seemed to have mentioned that there was indeed a clan member on the moon.
"I sense it too. His strength isn't great. Let's go meet him."

Momoshiki smiled confidently.
Who else could be the Otsutsuki on the moon besides Toneri?
The current Toneri didn't even have the Tenseigan, or even eyes at all. He was simply blind, moving by his own perception.
His power was also far inferior to a normal Otsutsuki. Forget Momoshiki, even Kinshiki could solo him now.
Thinking this, the space beside him suddenly twisted. Kinshiki looked over vigilantly.
He saw an exquisitely dressed girl appear out of thin air, looking around the environment with a puzzled expression.
"What are you doing here?"
Furina had just opened her mouth to ask when she noticed a tall, burly man beside her, and Momoshiki was even sitting on him.
"Naturally, I'm looking for other Otsutsuki. What are you doing out here? Aren't you taking care of those two little ones?" Momoshiki was equally confused.
"They're getting along very well now. I saw you weren't coming in, thought something happened, so I wanted to check," Furina shrugged.
The two little ones in the Kamui Dimension had trained their abilities for a while and were now sitting in the pile of books, researching those mechanical trinkets together.
He didn't know if it was because Kimimaro felt care from Haku, or because Haku felt a sense of shared suffering from Kimimaro, but their relationship was very good now.
"Heh heh." Momoshiki sneered.
Truly worthy of silly Furina.
"If I were in trouble, you'd best pray you stay safe."
"I know, I know."
Furina glared at Momoshiki in dissatisfaction.
"Honestly, I thought you were in trouble, but you're just being sarcastic, hmph."
After a cold snort, Furina turned her head away, looking like she couldn't be appeased without a small cake.
Looking at their interaction, Kinshiki fell into brief thought.
This girl had the aura of Karma on her. She should be Lord Momoshiki's vessel for revival. But was their relationship a bit too strange?
Logically, in his understanding, they should either repel each other, or one would directly take over the other, or they would merge, leading to schizophrenia.
He had never seen a vessel and Karma get along so harmoniously, like friends playfully bickering. It was simply absurd.
Never mind, Lord Momoshiki must have his reasons for doing this.
"Let me introduce you. This is Otsutsuki Kinshiki, my subordinate."
Momoshiki patted Kinshiki.
"I can tell," Furina's lips twitched slightly twice.
If he wasn't a subordinate, that big guy probably wouldn't willingly carry Momoshiki.
But the question was, was this really a subordinate relationship? Why did it look like a mount?
"My name is Furina."
Furina's introduction was extremely concise, only five words. Just getting to know each other was enough.
Kinshiki nodded slightly, not speaking.
"Then what are you doing looking for other Otsutsuki now? Are you trying to speed up tree planting efficiency?" Furina asked curiously.
"Naturally, there are things to deal with."
Momoshiki didn't elaborate, just signaled Kinshiki to descend.
Because Momoshiki couldn't leave the 10-meter radius, Furina quickly followed.
The descent speed was quite fast. The three of them soon arrived on the moon's surface.
With a few rumbling sounds, Momoshiki made a grand entrance.
As soon as Furina arrived, she ruined the grand entrance. She made a "looking into the distance" gesture with her hands, curiously observing her surroundings, and even bounced twice to feel the planet's gravity.
As far as the eye could see, it was cratered and dim, with no oxygen. Clearly, no life could survive. But not far away, there was actually the outline of a palace.
"It looks like a barren planet, but it actually has a palace!"
"That's where the person we're looking for is," Momoshiki said, casually absorbing a piece of hard material, kneading it in his hand.
Things on the moon, if brought to Earth, would be fought over by every country. Anyway, he could take as much as he wanted now, but it was basically useless.
Saying this, Momoshiki gently crushed it, a faint, inexplicable smile on his lips.
"But he seems to have arrived now."
Kinshiki, with his other hand, pulled out a red battle-axe using Amenotejikara, ready for battle at any moment.
"Huh?! Why are they suddenly fighting?!"
Furina quickly flew to Momoshiki's side, nervously looking around.
Because of her enhanced physical quality, her senses of the surrounding environment had also improved somewhat. She indeed felt something approaching, but it wasn't very obvious.
This was often the most terrifying.
Knowing someone was approaching, but not knowing where they were, was simply agonizing.
"No need to be so afraid. The guy coming isn't your opponent, and he can't break your current Susanoo either."
"Huh?"
Hearing Momoshiki's slightly speechless words, Furina blinked her innocent eyes.
"Really? If it's true, I'll believe you."
Furina immediately jumped to the ground beside them, once again returning to her usual fluffy, puffy appearance, becoming a little tsundere.
Just as she struck her "I'm invincible, do what you want" pose, a thick smoke suddenly rose not far ahead, and then a figure walked out of the smoke.
His aura was very strong. Every step he took exuded an invisible oppressive feeling.
"Ugh..."
Looking at the approaching figure, Furina lost her previous arrogance, quietly swallowed, and moved backward.
Successfully guarding the rear safety of the two.
When the smoke completely dissipated, they finally saw the person's appearance.
He wore white clothes, with a yellow-green outer garment, white hair, eyes tightly closed, no eyes, and looked a bit handsome.
It could only be Toneri Otsutsuki.
"Heh heh heh~"
Momoshiki, for some reason, felt that the current atmosphere called for a villain's smile, so his lips curved slightly upwards.
Toneri's senses were also very sharp. He could feel that the newcomer's strength far exceeded his own, which made him frown.
Of course, more importantly, two of the three newcomers had an aura similar to his own clan, and their bloodline was even purer. They were clearly true Otsutsuki.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?!"
Due to his weaker strength, Toneri was the first to speak, negotiating. An inexplicable nervousness rose in his heart.
Toneri was not unaware of the rumors about the clan from outside the world.
It was said that the ancestor named Kaguya, who was sealed and guarded, was one of them, but she had betrayed the Otsutsuki.
And the reason she was sealed was because she had done many inhumane things, such as human sacrifices, all to resist the arrival of the Otsutsuki.
If the rumors were true, then they were probably here with ill intentions.
Thinking this, Toneri gritted his teeth, raising all his senses to the highest level, ready for battle at any moment.
"Otsutsuki Toneri, a descendant of Kaguya's bloodline, right?"
Momoshiki's tone was flat, with a hint of playfulness.
Toneri clenched his fist, feeling an invisible pressure from his words, very powerful.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you don't even have eyes. Your bloodline is truly pitifully complex."
"What exactly do you want to say? If you need me to do anything, just say it directly. There's no need to waste so many words."
Because fighting them would clearly be a losing battle, and might even lead to the destruction of the seal or other things, Toneri tried his best to suppress any signs of initiating a fight.
Furina also noticed that the atmosphere was a bit off. She looked at Toneri with some confusion, then turned to Momoshiki, not understanding what he was up to.
What did he mean by "born without eyes"? What did he mean by "complex bloodline"?
Can people really be born without eyes? This was the first time she had heard of it.
Fufu is confused.jpg
As for the name Kaguya, she seemed to have heard it somewhere. Momoshiki had mentioned earlier that the Otsutsuki responsible for that planet's Divine Tree was Kaguya, but she had betrayed the Otsutsuki clan.
She looked down at the red giant axe in Kinshiki's hand.
Hiss...
Was Momoshiki here to cause trouble this time?
Just as she thought, Momoshiki first sneered, then slowly raised his left hand.
An invisible pressure instantly spread out. The others didn't feel it, but Toneri immediately became unable to move, unable to even make a terrified expression.
A chakra black rod instantly pierced through his head, securing a first kill on the spot.
It was too sudden, startling Furina. She screamed, quickly covering her eyes.
After a while, why did it feel like there was no sound at all?
Furina was confused and a little scared. She quietly opened a gap between her fingers to peek out, only to find that Kinshiki had already put away his axe.
Even Toneri, who should have died, was standing perfectly fine in place, not pierced by the black rod at all.
What was going on? Shouldn't that guy named Toneri be dead?
Why did what just happened seem like it hadn't happened at all?
She scratched the back of her head. A flash of insight crossed her not-so-bright little brain.
Did I awaken the ability to predict the future?!
"You're overthinking it."
Sensing Furina's thoughts, Momoshiki glanced at her speechlessly.
"Ahehe~"
Furina playfully stuck out her tongue.
Although she didn't know what had happened, as long as there were no bloody scenes, it was fine.
"Phew..."
Toneri let out a long breath, looking blankly at his perfectly intact body.
In his memory, he had indeed died, instantly killed.
But the problem was why he was still standing perfectly fine in place now.
He wiggled his flexible fingers. Toneri looked at Momoshiki. His originally vigilant heart was inexplicably suppressed, unable to produce any hint of resistance, and even felt reasonable.
"What exactly is going on?"
Toneri felt his brain short-circuiting a bit. His loyalty to Momoshiki was invisibly maxed out.
Kinshiki, who witnessed the entire process, fell into brief thought.
He could also clearly feel that Toneri had died instantly from that blow, but was then suddenly revived by an invisible force.
And after revival, Toneri's vigilance and hostility disappeared, as if he had suddenly become a subordinate.
He only needed to kill an opponent to change their mind and revive them. What kind of terrifying power was this? Truly worthy of Lord Momoshiki...
