"We are saved."
"The clan leader and the four Venerable Ones have taken action, finally suppressing the World Creation Divine Tree."
The Otsutsuki clansmen were all filled with lingering fear. They never expected the World Creation Divine Tree to go berserk. After all, this divine tree had remained quiet for thousands of years, and such violent outbursts were rare.
"It is Venerable Kagutsuchi."
Some keen eyed clansmen exclaimed in surprise. They saw Otsutsuki Kagutsuchi descend into the clan grounds. Everyone watched as he glared at the severed root of the divine tree on the ground, and the struggling root immediately burst into raging flames.
When the fire burned at its fiercest, Otsutsuki Kagutsuchi suddenly opened his mouth. The divine tree root on the ground, along with the raging flames, were all swallowed into his abdomen.
Otsutsuki Yagara glanced in his direction but said nothing. However, the devouring of one root clearly angered the World Creation Divine Tree. An abnormally large Nine Tomoe Rinne Sharingan suddenly emerged from the thick main trunk.
The moment this Nine Tomoe Rinne Sharingan appeared, the ocular power exerted on it by the three Divine Venerables was immediately weakened. As the eye scanned its surroundings, all living beings felt the chakra within their bodies threatening to break out.
Fortunately, this effect was very brief for the supreme powerhouses. The fifth Venerable One, Otsutsuki Kamikyo, also flew before the World Creation Divine Tree in the next moment.
"Mother, please calm down." Otsutsuki Kamikyo's pair of red Nine Tomoe Rinnegan opened slightly, and terrifying ocular power instantly surged forth.
The moment the giant single eye of the World Creation Divine Tree saw these eyes, it calmed down, and even showed signs of wanting to close its eye and fall asleep.
The reason Otsutsuki Kamikyo addressed the World Creation Divine Tree as mother was because he was a genuine first generation Divine Tree Person. In fact, the ancestors of the Otsutsuki clan were also Divine Tree People.
The reason the Otsutsuki clan reverently called 'Chakra' the World Creation Divine Tree was because their entire family evolved from this divine tree.
"Did it succeed?"
Seeing the calmed divine tree, the Venerable Ones secretly breathed sighs of relief. Although their power was great, they could not restrain the World Creation Divine Tree for too long.
Otsutsuki Kamikyo possessed a pair of nearly invincible genjutsu Rinnegan. His ability had an extremely strong suppressive effect on the World Creation Divine Tree.
"Present all the chakra fruits and offerings."
Otsutsuki Yagara waved his hand grandly. In the next moment, clansmen threw many chakra fruits of varying quality into the mouth of the divine tree. Along with them, dozens of Otsutsuki clan criminals were also thrown into that abyssal maw.
Relying solely on Otsutsuki Kamikyo's power was not enough to completely calm the World Creation Divine Tree. It needed to be given a sweetener first.
"These offerings alone are far from enough. Since the supreme divine fruit was eaten by a traitor, capturing him and feeding him to Mother is also acceptable." Otsutsuki Kamikyo suggested to the clan leader.
As Venerable Ones, they were qualified to know about the supreme divine fruit. As a Divine Tree Person, he also understood why Mother was angry and went berserk.
"I know." Otsutsuki Yagara nodded seriously.
"The Third Elder will stay to handle the aftermath. Everyone else, come to the meeting." Having said this, Otsutsuki Yagara took the initiative to fly towards the palace.
The situation with the divine tree had stabilized and was unlikely to go berserk again for now. Next, they needed to discuss how to deal with the family traitor.
...
Ninja World.
A giant tree suddenly plummeted from beyond the sky towards the territory of the Land of Rice. The flames generated by the friction of its descent instantly ignited the entire divine tree.
When the tree was less than ten thousand meters from the ground, the Truth Seeking Orb black sphere encasing the roots suddenly opened a gap. The fiercely burning giant tree was instantly dragged into the black sphere by some force.
The moment it absorbed the entire tree, the heavy Truth Seeking Orb black sphere smashed into a great mountain in the next moment, embedding itself into the earth.
The abnormal massive tremor occurring within the Land of Rice quickly attracted ninja from Otogakure.
"Earth Release, Rising Earth Technique."
A jonin formed hand seals and slapped the ground. In the next moment, the Truth Seeking Orb embedded in the earth was pushed out by the earth technique.
"What is this thing..."
The Otogakure ninja team looked at the black sphere before them, unsure what it was. A chunin went up and poked it with his tachi, finding it exceptionally hard. On the second poke, the tachi actually broke.
"So hard."
Seeing this, the jonin pondered for a moment. In the next moment, he actively reached his hand towards the Truth Seeking Orb black sphere. He was a sensory type ninja. He wanted to try to probe the inside of the sphere.
The moment his palm was about to touch the Truth Seeking Orb black sphere, the sphere suddenly contracted. A familiar figure was directly exposed before the ninja team.
"For a ninja, excessive curiosity is not a good habit." Ryun looked at the jonin and admonished.
Without Six Paths level strength, if he touched the Truth Seeking Orb, that jonin's hand would definitely be gone.
"Sha... Shadow Mansion Lord."
The jonin was greatly shocked. After reacting, he hurriedly knelt on one knee in salute. He never expected to encounter the Shadow Mansion Lord here.
"All rise. There's no need to investigate this matter. Return to the village and report back." Ryun waved his hand.
"Yes."
In the next moment, Ryun's entire body transformed into a spatial vortex and disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already back inside the Shadow Mansion.
"Woof. Woof."
Several barks came from the courtyard. The puppy raised by Nanaise was the first to discover him.
Ryun ignored the tail wagging puppy and walked straight into the villa with heavy steps.
"Mom." The moment he returned home, he saw Asuka cleaning.
"Ah. Son, you're back." Asuka looked pleasantly surprised and hurried forward.
"Son, you this? Why are you covered in seals?" Asuka covered her mouth and asked in surprise.
Although Asuka was just an ordinary person, the house was full of various sealing technique scrolls. She understood a little about the sealing formulas on Ryun's body.
"Ah. Husband, what happened to you." Hearing the mother and son talking, Kushina also immediately came over upon hearing the news.
At this moment, Ryun's body was covered with sealing formulas, dense and somewhat creepy looking.
"I ate the chakra fruit. The energy was too vast, so I temporarily sealed myself."
Ryun proactively explained the situation, then actively took Asuka's hand.
"Even though I've sealed it, I cannot fully digest all the power of the divine fruit. Mom, I'm going to give part of the power to you."
"Ah. I don't want it. I'm just an ordinary person. What do I need power for? Give it to Kushina." Asuka hurriedly spoke.
"I will give it to her too, but you first. The immortal blood flowing in your body means you can no longer be considered an ordinary person."
After saying this, not giving Asuka a chance to refuse, Ryun's eyes glared. The pattern of the Rinnegan immediately appeared in Asuka's eyes.
"Ryun, what are you going to do?" Kushina hurriedly asked. She didn't quite understand what her man intended to do.
"Exchange blood."
The immortal blood he first gave her had been adapted and assimilated. Next, he was going to give his mother even stronger blood and chakra.
It didn't matter if she didn't want to cultivate. Ryun still had a way to keep his mother healthy and long lived.
