Chapter 274: What is Deduction?
To fully activate this massive Tenseigan, two conditions had to be met.
The first—one must possess Ōtsutsuki blood. The purer, the better.
Anyone without the Ōtsutsuki lineage, or whose bloodline was too diluted, would be identified as an intruder and immediately attacked by the eye.
The second requirement was to wield the Tenseigan—or a dojutsu on equal footing.
Although Ōtsutsuki Toneri had the bloodline, his lack of true Tenseigan ability meant he could barely access limited functions of the eye. Even then, he had to rely on the temple's rituals to control it, and those same rituals were used to suppress the eye's full power.
Only someone like Ryosuke, with both Ōtsutsuki blood and a Tenseigan-level eye technique, could unlock the Tenseigan full capabilities and wield it freely.
For Ryosuke, this was the ultimate equipment—one bonded to him by blood.
"Next… it's time to visit Kaguya Ōtsutsuki."
Ryosuke descended once again.
The massive Tenseigan, still glowing like a miniature sun, floated behind him obediently.
The temple's location wasn't at the bottom of the cavern, but suspended far above it.
This moon had been forged using the Six Paths-level Chibaku Tensei.
At its core lay a condensed yin-yang sphere wrapped in countless layers of chakra-infused soil—each layer acting as a seal.
Over time, these layers formed what became the Ninja World's moon.
Until now, Ryosuke's Tenseigan could only perceive shallow depths. The core region had remained invisible—not due to distance, but because the deeper one reached, the stronger the sealing power became.
That sealing chakra didn't just block his sight—it devoured anything probing too deep, even chakra itself.
But now, with his abilities amplified by the giant Tenseigan, Ryosuke's vision pierced through the layers—cutting past the seals and pushing deeper than ever before.
And in doing so… he discovered something unexpected: flaws in the seal.
Time, after all, was the ultimate weapon.
Even the strongest barriers could erode over millennia.
Ryosuke reached the bottom of the chasm at incredible speed.
As he neared the ground, his glowing figure slowed, adjusting mid-air until he landed gracefully on the gray, shadowed soil—without disturbing a single speck of dust.
In just a short time, he had fully adapted to the planet's environment.
Looking around, the dim underground lit up in his eyes.
From all directions, he could feel strong suction—forces trying to siphon chakra from his body. The intensity was surprising, even for him.
"What strange soil…"
Ryosuke extended a hand. The ground trembled beneath his gesture—but didn't rise.
His bright eyes saw the truth: this soil was filled with chakra—dense, conscious, and unlike anything on the moon's surface.
In fact, this chakra reminded him of the seals left by Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki within Naruto.
These weren't just traces of energy—they were like sentient jailers, woven into the earth, designed to keep the moon's core isolated from the outside world.
Even for Ryosuke, manipulating it wasn't simple. He'd first have to erase the chakra within before gaining control.
Any lesser shinobi would've been drained dry long before reaching this place.
"So…"
Ryosuke's palm glowed silver. "What happens if I destroy this soil?"
A silver wheel spun in his hand, its power contained under his precise control.
He targeted the ground beneath him—and tossed it like a spark.
The Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion vanished the moment it struck, swallowed instantly by the soil.
Like a stone dropped into still water—not even a ripple remained.
"In an instant… the chakra-rich soil absorbed the entire Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion."
Ryosuke's enhanced vision, boosted by the Tenseigan, recorded everything in intricate detail.
Though he hadn't expected the small-scale version to pierce the seal, its complete erasure still caught him off guard.
His palm glowed again. Another silver wheel formed—stronger than the last.
He launched it downward.
Again, it disappeared—erased without a trace.
Once… twice… three times.
Only on the fourth attempt, when Ryosuke increased the Silver Wheel's power to 40%, did the seal beneath him finally stir.
Tiny ripples spread below the surface. Subtle—barely perceptible. Without close attention, he might've missed them.
"Forty percent power just to cause this? I underestimated the strength of this seal."
Ryosuke raised his hand again.
Although he wanted to unseal Kaguya Ōtsutsuki soon and complete their deal, he didn't intend to rush.
This was a test—meant to feel out the limits.
Originally, he had worried about destroying the moon before securing a replacement, so he took care to limit his power.
But now, it was clear—he had overestimated his strength… and underestimated the might of a Six Paths-level Chibaku Tensei.
Still, he didn't stop.
Several more tests followed—each one stronger than the last.
It wasn't until Ryosuke pushed the Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion to 80% that the moon beneath his feet began to tremble slightly.
He closed his eyes.
Images and calculations formed in his mind.
90%…
100%…
Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion…
The enhanced version—amplified by the giant Tenseigan floating beside him…
By comparing his previous tests, Ryosuke began to deduce the consequences.
If no unexpected interference occurred, launching an all-out strike with the Golden Wheel would likely rupture the seal—but also severely damage the moon itself.
At levels below 80%, without Tenseigan amplification, the Silver Wheel was still being devoured by the core's sealing power.
But once he passed that threshold, the bombardment began to tear into the deepest layers—where the seal had been worn down by time.
Still, the cost was clear: the higher the output, the greater the damage to the moon's crust.
If the Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion were used at full power, the surface soil of the moon would begin to crack from internal pressure.
Under the force of the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, the moon's surface would be completely torn apart.
And with the added amplification from the massive Tenseigan, the moon would continue to collapse—piece by piece—under the clash between Ryosuke's overwhelming force and the seal formed by Chibaku Tensei.
Yet even after all that, the core seal at the heart of the moon remained unbroken.
Even if he were to destroy the entire moon by force, it still might not be enough to unseal Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.
At this point, Ryosuke's deduction concluded.
He opened his eyes but made no further move.
Instead, he calmly surveyed his surroundings, listening to the distant echoes, feeling every shift in the air.
Despite the numerous transformations that had evolved Ryosuke's mind—enhancing his cognitive abilities to rival a supercomputer—calculations remained just that: calculations.
Using the 40% output of the Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion as a baseline, and comparing it through repeated tests, he had only been able to infer the scale of destruction his techniques might cause under these conditions.
But basing an action of this magnitude solely on deduction would be reckless.
In the past, this would have been the limit of his approach.
But now… things were different.
Suddenly, he raised his hand.
At that moment, his Tenseigan chakra surged into the massive eye before him like a flood.
A surge of power exploded from the Tenseigan—so immense it caused the entire moon to tremble violently.
The light radiating from the eye intensified, becoming so brilliant that it seemed to devour the form of the eye itself. The spherical structure vanished, consumed by divine luminance.
Then, within the glow, the shape began to shift—as if a piece of fine steel was melting in a furnace, reforging itself.
From the molten light, it condensed into a golden longsword, which began to slowly orbit around Ryosuke.
This is… my strongest technique yet.
Feeling the pure, terrifying force radiating from the sword, a flicker of anticipation sparked in Ryosuke's eyes.
The Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, pushed to its maximum through the amplified Rinnegan, became this divine lightsaber.
Its presence alone gave Ryosuke a sense of absolute safety.
This was a power that transcended even the Six Paths.
But...
"Let's try it."
Ryosuke grinned.
The lightsaber trembled as if acknowledging his command—then, like a guided meteor, plunged straight into the ground beneath him.
Boom!
The instant the blade's tip touched the soil, a deafening roar tore through the cavern.
The sheer shock shattered Ryosuke's eardrums. Blood poured from his ears, nose, mouth—and even his eyes.
Yet he didn't flinch.
With Truth-Seeking Orbs, he hastily constructed a protective shell around his body, then stared ahead with fevered eyes.
All the sealing chakra embedded in the moon's core surged toward him in response—desperate to resist the threat of the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.
The sword quivered violently. The ground trembled. Even space itself began to crack and warp under the pressure.
Bang! Bang! Bang—!
The earth split and tore.
Two forces capable of annihilating the Ninja World clashed on this small moon, and in a heartbeat, the planet resembled an apple stripped of its flesh—its outer layer shattered, leaving only the core.
Wind howled madly.
The moon's once-habitable environment had collapsed. Cosmic pressure from deep space poured in, converging toward Ryosuke.
Even with his current physique, he wouldn't last long.
Still—he refused to retreat.
He remained locked on the tip of the blade—on the exact point of impact.
Though the ground hadn't yet fractured visibly, the sealing force beneath it was clearly losing ground—its power being obliterated by the blade.
Snap—
Crack!
He heard it—echoing not through his ears, but directly into his soul.
The space around him began to fracture like shattered glass, unable to contain the overwhelming forces colliding within it.
But that was fine. It was almost there.
The giant Tenseigan, infused with Ryosuke's power, had become the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion itself—transmitting every vibration, every fluctuation into his consciousness.
The venomous seal—twisting like a coiled snake—was being devoured by the sword.
At the same time, Ryosuke's mind began to dim. His body had reached its limit, unable to bear the pressure of space or the aftermath of such divine techniques.
And just as he was on the brink of collapse… it happened.
The gray-black soil beneath him changed.
The seal had been unraveled. The chakra embedded within it dispersed.
And without that binding force, the soil could no longer block his gaze.
His vision pierced through the moon's core—and what lay at the heart of it stunned him.
There—at the very center—was Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.
In the depths of his hazy sight, a black orb—like a Truth-Seeking Ball—crumbled away, as though it were paper being burned.
Inside it, a woman slept—her beauty so flawless it resembled divine sculpture.
But it wasn't a warm beauty.
There was no peace in her rest—only distance. Cold, regal detachment.
Then, as if sensing the change in her surroundings, she stirred.
Her expression tensed slightly. Her brow furrowed.
And then—she opened her eyes.
Her pupils, so pure and white, met Ryosuke's from across the core.
Boom!
His body convulsed violently. He collapsed, gasping for breath.
His flesh, once ruptured by backlash, had already regenerated.
But the chakra within him was nearly depleted.
The deep yellow glow of the massive Tenseigan beside him had also dimmed.
Around him, the chaotic distortion of space and shattered moon seemed… eerily calm—almost as if time itself had rewound.
Everything had returned to silence.
"I've finally seen your true self, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki…"
Ignoring the dust and devastation, Ryosuke laid flat on the ground, letting his body recover from the strain.
But in his eyes, there was a wild light—an irrepressible excitement.
He had done it.
He had seen the future—not by rewinding time, but by looking into the long river of time itself… and watching his own fate unfold.
