"Why is there only one space? I remember Kaguya had six, didn't she?"
Kaguya's six 'Amenominaka' spaces had left a very deep impression on him. But when it came to him, there was only one, and he also thought of something.
"Amenominaka seems to be a Rinnegan ability, but my Tenseigan…"
It felt a bit strange, but the information in his mind definitely couldn't be false.
Even if he currently only had one personal dimension, it wasn't a big deal, as he could still continue to improve.
"At worst, it's not impossible to use it like Kamui, after all, my gains are far more than just this…"
Takemi murmured, and with a slight shift of Chakra within him, the earth instantly began to boil.
In this barren desert, endless quicksand began to churn violently, and a towering giant tree, carrying a surging tide of flowing sand, rose from the ground.
Before long, a giant tree with strange, eye-like closed flower buds had appeared in the desert.
Surging Chakra echoed like a tide, and in the vast desert, the wails of Tailed Beasts seemed to be heard.
"This is incredible…"
Looking at the suffocatingly huge god tree source, Takemi was momentarily stunned.
Big…
It was too big!
He finally understood why a single God Tree could drain an entire planet dry.
Especially since his god tree source was not yet complete, he was curious what it would be like when all the Chakra was gathered.
"But I don't even need to wait for the Chakra to be gathered. I can make White Zetsu now."
After this upgrade of the god tree source, he not only gained Amenominaka, but he even learned some basic usage methods of the God Tree.
White Zetsu was a way of utilizing the God Tree.
However, the method of making this thing was somewhat harsh, because it required living people.
"Am I now capable of hanging everyone on a tree?"
Takemi felt the information in his mind, looked at the giant God Tree before him, and chuckled.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to be progressing towards 'Ōtsutsuki Kaguya'.
"But it should still be a bit short, after all, I don't have Truth-Seeking Balls, but I do have substitutes."
He slightly raised his hand, and in an instant, black spheres revolved around his fingertips.
Chakra Beads, this was Takemi's final gain this time, and it also served as a supplement to his offensive capabilities.
Truth-Seeking Balls are a jutsu, and Chakra Beads are the same.
But Takemi still hadn't managed to create Truth-Seeking Balls, and the problem was likely with Yin-Yang Release.
"But having Chakra Beads as a substitute isn't bad."
With a thought, Takemi instantly returned to the real world.
The valley was still clear, and his improvement this time did not cause any large-scale tremors.
He silently recited a phrase, and in the blink of an eye, his panel quietly appeared.
[Name: Kitagawa Takemi]
[Bloodline: Ōtsutsuki (52%)]
[Dōjutsu: Tenseigan (Byakugan (Developing)]
[Special Ability: God Tree Source (Stage six)]
[Special Skills: Ice Release, Magnet Release, Dust Release, Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, Tenseigan Chakra Mode, Karma, Chakra Beads]
Looking at the information on the panel, Takemi nodded.
Although the two Tailed Beast Chakras didn't bring much bloodline development, their key effect was on the God Tree and his eyes.
This time, his eyes had absorbed Chakra to saturation, and that long-lost feeling of 'fetal movement' resurfaced once again.
"It seems my eyes are finally going to progress, and the key to this is probably…"
He looked up, his gaze directed towards the sky.
In an instant, he seemed to connect with the Tenseigan in the sky.
A mysterious force in the unseen was guiding him, directing him towards the path of his exploration.
And there, was the moon he had been constantly thinking about.
"This time, I seem to be close to finding the passage."
A day later, Takemi and the others finally arrived outside Konoha.
"Finally back!"
Deidara wanted to fly straight in, but was ultimately pulled down by Takemi and Mei together.
"Seriously, why not just fly straight back? Why bother getting down?"
Deidara was somewhat unhappy. He followed Takemi and Mei towards Konoha, muttering as he went.
"Your village has so many problems. When I was in Iwagakure, I always flew straight in."
"You should thank your Tsuchikage for being good-tempered. If it were me, I would have knocked you down already." Takemi rolled his eyes, and Mei nodded in agreement.
"Every village has a barrier for protection. If you act so recklessly, it's easy to cause problems. But Takemi is right, Tsuchikage-sama is indeed good to you."
"Uh, this is considered good?"
Deidara tilted his head, seemingly not quite understanding.
"That old man scolds me every day."
"It's good he only scolds you. If it were me, I would have killed you already."
Takemi shook his head with a mischievous smile, which instantly annoyed Deidara.
Mei was speechless. If it were their village, they probably wouldn't be willing to kill a genius like Deidara.
After all, after being messed up by Obito, Kirigakure was severely lacking in talent.
"Huh?"
As they walked and joked, they suddenly vaguely heard some sounds.
"Eh, what's going on?"
Deidara stopped joking with Takemi. He looked up in confusion towards the direction of Konoha.
"What is your village doing now?"
"Is this… welcoming us?"
Mei said somewhat uncertainly, while Takemi smiled.
"Probably? Let's go, let's hurry over."
As they drew closer, they could clearly see the gates of Konoha.
And as they approached, the cheers from Konoha gradually grew louder.
Slowly, as they entered the village, the cheers reached their peak.
It was like a mountain and sea roaring, the fervent cheers echoing throughout Konoha.
"This…"
Deidara had initially found it a bit noisy, but at this moment, he felt shocked.
Mei was also somewhat stunned. She looked at the cheering crowd around her in astonishment, momentarily speechless.
Even Takemi was a bit lost in thought at this moment, but he quickly smiled. He, of course, knew how much of a shadow Kumogakure's coercion had left on the people of the village back then.
And now, the three of them had caused Kumogakure to fall, which for Konoha was far more than just revenge.
"Takemi!"
In the crowd, he saw Naruto, Sasuke, and others waving at him, and on the other side, Kakashi and Guy were also smiling broadly.
"Takemi…"
As he pondered, Hiruzen , Ōnoki, and Genji had already walked forward.
They looked at Takemi and his group, and finally, they too smiled.
"Welcome back, our heroes!"
