Chapter 290 - 290 - Kei’s Blessing: Life, Light, and Limitlessness

All traits have been fully upgraded.

The Eternal Primordial Divine Kingdom had also completely completed its transformation from a dimensional entity to a worldly one.

Kei stood silently in place, quietly feeling the changes in his various abilities. The corners of his mouth involuntarily curled into a faint smile.

The concept of "Eternity" was simply too all-powerful.

Its amplification effect on other concepts was utterly broken, practically a bug.

Take for example the recently completed overlay of the "Eternity" concept with the "Time" concept.

Now, he could freely apply time acceleration or deceleration effects to any world gateway, and solidify these conceptual attachments using eternal power, creating time differentials between worlds.

Put simply: He could freely adjust the time flow between worlds.

"Naruto? Demon Slayer? Or..."

He glanced at the five Cosmic Fruits hanging on the Cosmic Tree. After a moment of hesitation, he chose to experiment with the Warhammer World.

The Warhammer World was more durable after all.

And the people he knew there mostly had long lifespans.

Even if a minor mistake occurred, it wouldn't take much effort to pull things back on track.

Just as he was preparing to carry out the experiment, a connection formed through a divine summoning ritual, channeling the power of faith through his statue, transmitted from the Naruto world's Cosmic Fruit!

Through that link of faith, Kei instantly saw the richly dressed people performing the Pure Land Dance.

---

Naruto world, at the massive shrine behind the main headquarters building:

Tsunade, Kushina, Hikari, Miroku, Kaguya, and the others all dressed in ceremonial robes, stood at the forefront of the kagura dance troupe.

Accompanied by more than 200 official shrine maidens and dozens of musicians, they began to perform the divine dance.

Within the festive atmosphere of the headquarters, ceremonial fireworks kept launching and bursting.

Tens of thousands of ninjas and hundreds of thousands of devout followers and ordinary residents from across the Naruto world gathered in the streets of the headquarters, enjoying the joyful festival!

As the kagura dance music spread for tens of kilometers,

Devout believers clasped their hands in silent prayer, thanking the God who defied fate for the blessings and happiness He had brought.

Even those ordinary citizens or ninjas who weren't particularly religious began praying under the influence of the atmosphere, wishing for a better year ahead.

Buzz.

A presence, akin to a God, descended.

The skies, which had been overcast due to Pakura's Heaven's Piss influence, suddenly began to clear.

Standing on a mountaintop, Madara, who hadn't yet used his Rinnegan to dispel the clouds, was momentarily stunned. He immediately felt a divine power so immense it shook his very soul, enveloping the entire headquarters.

All the shrine maidens, led by Tsunade and the others, simultaneously radiated multicolored spiritual light.

High in the sky, golden lotuses bloomed, dragons and phoenixes danced, celestial spirits soared, and the multicolored light reflected a thousandfold palace complex. The summoning music, which had been slightly distorted by distance, now echoed clearly in everyone's ears.

Tsunade and Kushina's figures, with hands gracefully spinning, were the first to be reflected in the sky.

Then Hikari, Pakura, Miroku, Kaguya, and the others appeared one by one. More than 200 shrine maidens seemed to be dancing within a divine palace, shocking the hearts of all observers.

"The God, the Divine One has manifested!"

Someone suddenly shouted, and immediately, countless believers knelt and prostrated themselves.

From the sky, flowers of golden light with seven-colored halos slowly drifted down, it was as if a rain of golden blossoms had begun!

As the golden flowers landed on the crowd:

Ordinary people were instantly cured of all ailments, feeling refreshed and energized.

Even those who had been terminally ill were, within moments, restored to seemingly normal, full-of-life health.

Ninjas felt the golden flowers merge with their bodies, their chakra volumes spiked, and their physical attributes were enhanced significantly. Eyes wide with shock, their expressions brimmed with disbelief.

In the next instant, a golden power visible to the naked eye surged from the sky-palace above and rippled outward in waves in all directions.

Across the continent, every piece of land that held a Kei Shrine was now blessed with the Concept of Abundance.

Previously fertile lands grew even richer. Even barren regions saw dramatic environmental improvements in an instant.

"Abundance, Fertility, Happiness, Joy!"

A deep, ethereal voice rang out in everyone's ears.

A sudden clarity rose in the hearts of all.

For the coming year, the entire continent would be enveloped by the power of abundance and fertility, grain production would increase, forests would flourish, livestock would multiply, and birth rates among couples would soar.

Some were overwhelmed with emotion. Some wept with joy. And others, at that very moment, became true fanatics in their faith.

"This is way more impactful than the sequence I designed."

In the plaza of the shrine, Shikaku looked up at the sky where a massive, crystal-clear image of the world was visible. He secretly marveled at how powerful his old friend had become.

Out of habit, he raised his hand to rub his sore lower back.

But as soon as he touched his waist, he felt a surge of overflowing vitality.

His expression brightened. He instinctively used chakra to examine himself.

Recalling the information in that divine message just now, a confident smile spread across his lips.

His eldest son was already six months old, and recently Yoshino had almost drained him dry.

This divine blessing is great.

Absolutely worth it.

Now he could go back, plant a few more seeds, and rest easy for over a year again!

Hashirama, Tobirama, Madara, Izuna, Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Minato, and others, those with wives were secretly overjoyed. Those without gave envious side-eyes to the "fortunate" ones.

Inside the shrine, as the kagura dance entered its final part, Tsunade and Kushina, both glowing with multicolored spiritual light and leading the front of the dance, began to float upwards.

Under everyone's astonished gaze, they rose straight into the celestial palace in the sky.

The palace gates opened wide, and their figures vanished into the heavenly realm.

After just over five minutes, as the kagura dance came to an end, the celestial phenomena began to fade, and the awe-struck crowd gradually came back to their senses.

Some of the younger shrine maidens were excited beyond words as they felt the surging divine power flowing through them.

Tsunade, Hikari, Pakura, Miroku, Kaguya, Nonō, Yugito, Mikoto, and the others also experienced various degrees of power growth.

"Miroku, where did Kushina?" Pakura asked, hands on her hips, gazing up at the clear blue sky.

"Fulfilling a shrine maiden's duty,"

Miroku covered her mouth with a soft laugh. She didn't say it outright, but everyone understood immediately.

Kushina was his official wife, after all.

Hikari puffed up her cheeks angrily and immediately ran off toward Kei's former home.

The normally stoic Kaguya, who had been dragged into the festivities, blinked her pale eyes in confusion.

"Dancing... actually turned me into a shrine maiden?"

Could it be her turn next to fulfill the shrine maiden's duties...?

The girls all chattered excitedly about what they'd just experienced, and the festival resumed its planned program.

Over hundreds of thousands of people at the headquarters had personally witnessed and felt the descent of a true divine miracle.

The already strong festive atmosphere took another massive leap.
