The freshly re-sealed Kaguya Ōtsutsuki was taken away with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were two reasons Kyūjō chose to bring Kaguya along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first, was to use her as a guide—his personal compass to the homeworld of the Ōtsutsuki Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second, was his decision to do it in secret… without telling Naruto or Sasuke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why? Because Kyūjō wanted them to remain cautious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted them to never forget that somewhere—beyond the skies of the ninja world—there still existed an enemy who could never be killed… only sealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to Kyūjō, Kaguya was no longer an untouchable goddess who could only be sealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After rigorous training across three different worlds, after fusing body, soul, and spirit into a singular existence capable of harnessing the celestial power of Starforce, Kyūjō had reached a realm far beyond even Kaguya's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had become someone who could erase her completely—with ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because no matter how powerful one's chakra might be, if their consciousness was shattered, then that energy would become nothing more than a masterless storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And right now… Kaguya was trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face was flushed with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had initially refused to reveal the coordinates of the Ōtsutsuki homeworld. But after Kyūjō unleashed his Starforce and vaporized a third of her body in an instant—obliterating a part of her consciousness in the process—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time in her eternal existence, Kaguya felt genuine terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She yielded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silently, she stood before Kyūjō, now his obedient guide, leading him toward the ancient world of the Ōtsutsuki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a reason she had refused to return to her home planet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was afraid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afraid of two specific beings within the Ōtsutsuki Main Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You see, the number of living Ōtsutsuki across the universe was astonishingly low. Their clan had nearly vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a handful of branch family members remained scattered across distant worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as for the Main Family… Kaguya had only ever met two of them. She had merely heard whispers of the third.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaguya herself was from the Branch Family. Thousands of years ago, to escape being sacrificed to the God Tree by a Main Family member—Ōtsutsuki Isshiki—she betrayed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stabbed him in the back, stole the Chakra Fruit meant for the Main Family, and devoured it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such treason would be punished without mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the truth were ever discovered… if the Main Family knew she had stolen what was rightfully theirs… then she would be hunted, again and again, without end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaguya had no fear toward the other branch members—she had evolved beyond them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the two from the Main Family…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They terrified her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first was Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long ago, Kaguya had secretly created an army of one hundred thousand White Zetsu, preparing for the day Momoshiki might descend upon the shinobi world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The army was never used. But the mere fact that she made it—that she needed it—was proof enough of her fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after eating the Chakra Fruit, Kaguya wasn't confident she could win against him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other Main Family member was even more legendary…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ōtsutsuki Shibai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Also known in some records as Ōtsutsuki Yabai—same person, different name.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Kaguya and Isshiki ever came to the ninja world, Shibai had already disappeared for thousands of years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one had seen him since.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaguya had only ever heard of him through whispers—fragments of hushed conversation passed between branch family members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he was still alive… if he was still out there…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the thought of it made her legs weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ōtsutsuki Shibai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one said to be closest to godhood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man with long white hair, dressed in dark robes, his head adorned with twin crown-like horns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He possessed the Byakugan, the Rinnegan, and wielded a multitude of Divine Techniques—mystic arts that transcended chakra itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had devoured countless Chakra Fruits across millennia, evolving without end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In time, he became a living myth—a being feared even among the Ōtsutsuki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A creature so powerful, some believed he had transcended mortality entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Kaguya described him, her voice trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyūjō remained silent for a moment, stroking his chin in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he'd heard of Shibai. Even in the anime world, Shibai was considered the \"god\" of the Ōtsutsuki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, seeing Kaguya—a woman feared across all dimensions—shake at the mere memory of him…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyūjō couldn't help but scoff inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So what if he was strong?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until they fought, it meant nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyūjō had come this far relying on no one but himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no reason to doubt his strength—no matter who stood in his path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, the journey continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They traveled through the void between stars, ignoring the passage of time. After what seemed like an eternity…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A giant golden planet floated before them, glowing faintly in the cosmic dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ancestral homeworld of the Ōtsutsuki Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We're here…\" Kaguya whispered. \"You've seen your destination. Will you uphold your promise now? Let me go—I swear, I won't return to the ninja world…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice was filled with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyūjō nodded, then pressed his palm to her forehead. A shimmering Starforce seal bloomed over her Rinnegan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This seal won't harm you—as long as you keep your word,\" he said calmly. \"Go. Leave. I won't stop you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing powerful chakra signatures stirring on the planet below, Kyūjō gave her one last glance before descending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he truly meant it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To him… Kaguya was just a pitiful soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the Ōtsutsuki and their habit of devouring planets… Kyūjō didn't see it as pure evil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it was simply the will of the universe—a kind of cosmic balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like the Gods of Destruction in other worlds. Not evil… just fulfilling their role.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe this was the universe's way of lightening its burden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those thoughts didn't matter right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One year passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Kyūjō left the Ōtsutsuki homeworld—now reduced to rubble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he hadn't wiped out the clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only killed Momoshiki and a few others whose strength rivaled Kaguya—because they were genuine threats to the future of the shinobi world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest, he spared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because in the end… they were just gears in a greater machine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Shibai?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyūjō never found him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— — —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, he began to wander.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From one star to the next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From one world to another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Absorbing nature energy, refining his Starforce, growing stronger with each passing age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He met beings from every corner of the galaxy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He explored ruined worlds and civilizations far older than his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But none of them… not a single one… could match him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Years turned to centuries.
