As this being approached Earth, an even greater storm loomed on the horizon, sending a chill of dread through the hearts of everyone on the planet.
Even though he hadn't yet fully arrived—merely drawing closer to the planet—an invisible pressure had already begun to stir reverence in countless ninjas below. Especially among the elite shinobi of the Five Great Nations, the more powerful they were, the more they felt a deep, primal urge to kneel in worship…
In the Hidden Cloud Village, the current Raikage looked up at the sky. Seeing tiny bolts of lightning flashing through the clouds, his heart filled with unease.
As the Raikage, he had long trained in lightning-style ninjutsu. Yet now, standing beneath the celestial bolts crackling above, he felt utterly insignificant.
Clearly, the control of lightning he wielded and what existed in that storm were worlds apart.
"I still have a long way to go…" he muttered to himself, fists clenched tightly.
Over in the Hidden Sand Village, the Kazekage shared similar sentiments.
Staring at the apocalyptic sky, he gritted his teeth. His years of studying and refining sand-based jutsu now felt like child's play compared to the overwhelming aura in the heavens.
"What kind of power is this?" he murmured. "Is this… a god descending upon us?"
His guess wasn't wrong. But what he didn't expect was that this so-called god had come not to bless the world—but to destroy it.
When the mysterious being arrived in orbit above the planet, he narrowed his eyes, carefully scanning the Earth below.
He hadn't communicated with the rest of his clan beforehand. He had assumed that his kin had already harvested all the planet's belief energy.
But as he opened his eyes and released an otherworldly chakra, blanketing the planet in a single wave, what he discovered shocked him: countless ninjas were worshiping a bizarre, unfamiliar statue.
And this statue clearly had no connection to the Ōtsutsuki Clan.
It bore enormous black wings, a terrifying face, a pair of horns—and most notably, piercing emerald-golden eyes that shimmered with divine brilliance.
This legendary Ōtsutsuki warrior immediately became cautious.
Though his cultivation was deep and vast, he had always been prudent when facing the unknown. Now, he realized he knew far too little about what had transpired on this native world.
He regretted not investigating before rushing here with the expedition. He had no idea what events had reshaped this planet beneath the veil of mystery.
Yes, most of the natives on this world were weak—but he also knew, in this vast universe, strength was everywhere. Some legacies could erase entire civilizations without warning.
And the thing he feared most on this long journey from the Ōtsutsuki ancestral star… was encountering a hidden, world-defending boss.
After all, the Ōtsutsuki Clan had its enemies scattered across the cosmos. If word of his presence leaked, those enemies wouldn't hesitate to seize the opportunity to strike.
Now hovering above the planet's atmosphere, he pondered all of this in silence. He chose not to act yet, preferring to quietly observe what secrets this planet held.
Meanwhile, within the halls of the Void Night Palace, Senju Yukika opened his eyes. He had sensed something.
With a calm smile, he unfurled his vast wings and soared skyward, breaking through the clouds.
His wings—those of a great black-winged beast—flapped slowly, but in a mere instant, he had pierced the upper atmosphere, emerging into space to face the approaching god-like entity.
When Senju Yukika's silent form broke through the atmospheric barrier, there were still tens of thousands of miles between him and the man.
But for beings like them, that distance meant little—mere minutes of travel at most.
The powerful Ōtsutsuki warrior's pupils narrowed sharply. A glimmer of wariness flashed in his eyes.
With a cold tone, he asked, "What do the people of this native planet call you?"
He hadn't seen Yukika move, but the energy he felt undeniably came from the planet below. This man had clearly been born here.
And yet… how could a native of such a primitive planet possess power of this magnitude?
"Could I defeat him?" the Ōtsutsuki warrior silently wondered.
He, Ōtsutsuki Tetsujō, had already unleashed his chakra, transforming the space around them into a shimmering domain stretching for miles.
This was his exclusive realm—within it, all his jutsu would be greatly enhanced, while his opponent's abilities would be severely weakened.
This ability was absurdly potent. Even among the celestial stars of the universe, it ranked as one of the most fearsome powers.
What Tetsujō didn't realize was that Senju Yukika wasn't an ordinary opponent.
Yukika possessed three innate dominator powers—this so-called domain could suppress his chakra, yes, but he still had spiritual pressure and the unique Mystic Law Technique, a method tailor-made to counter chakra-based beings like the Ōtsutsuki.
Senju Yukika finally replied, his voice steady, "I am Senju Yukika. Tell me your name."
Hearing this, Tetsujō narrowed his eyes.
The name "Yukika" meant nothing to him—but "Senju"… that he had heard before.
"The Senju Clan," Tetsujō scoffed. "Just a minor tribe on this primitive world. That someone like you could emerge from it… truly astounding."
Yukika offered no response. Instead, he went straight to the point.
"What is your purpose in coming to this world?" he asked.
Tetsujō chuckled darkly. He figured that Earth's strongest warrior already knew the answer.
"I've come," he said coldly, "to reduce this planet to dust—to erase it from the universe."
He paused, then added with lethal calm, "But before I do that, I'll use the most brutal means possible to eliminate all its so-called strongest defenders."
There was no ambiguity in his words.
He was talking about Senju Yukika.
