Chapter 441: Please Lend Me Your Chakra
Seawater several kilometers or even further away seemed to be violently churned by an invisible giant hand.
The sea surface churned violently, and giant waves rose to the heavens.
Even more terrifyingly, a massive column of water connecting the sea surface to the sky, like an inverted celestial river, was forcibly pulled up from the sea by an irresistible force.
This "celestial river" was like a tamed water dragon, streaking across the lunar night sky and roaring toward Naruto's position in a violent posture!
Before the enemy could arrive, the seawater had already reached Naruto's side first.
Naruto leaped up, using Magnet Release to form a cloud of golden gold dust to support himself.
Inside the lunar core palace, Ōtsutsuki Toneri, who was sensing the battlefield situation outside through a special method, saw a scene in his eyeless "vision" that caused even his mind to shake violently:
The blond intruder was floating alone in mid-air, and behind and beside him was that terrifying, roaring water dragon that he was "dragging" out of thin air with his right hand, spanning the sky and connecting to the distant ocean.
That scene was like the incarnation of the Water Divided Soul from myths and legends, dragging a ceaselessly flowing river through the air with the strength of one person.
Wherever the water dragon passed, the lunar air was violently stirred, making a roar like a dragon's cry, and the resulting Wind even blew away some of the smaller ruins and rubble on the ground.
The celestial river being dragged along emitted majestic water vapor and a terrifying Chakra pressure; its scale and power far exceeded the scope of ordinary Water Release Ninjutsu, filled with a violent beauty that defied common sense.
Although Toneri could not "see" with eyes, his perception was clearer and more fundamental than vision.
He could "feel" the destructive energy contained within that water dragon, enough to crush mountains and submerge cities, as well as the effortless and calm posture of the blond youth.
"Is this guy really human?"
How could this be a technique an ordinary Ninja from the Ninja World could perform?
Even the legendary Six Paths Sage was probably only at this level!
And the scene that followed completely confirmed that the shock in Toneri's heart was no illusion.
Naruto, facing the army of Puppets surging like a black tide, casually swung his right hand, which was dragging the "celestial river," forward.
"Go!"
With his light shout, the terrifying water dragon spanning the sky, which he had been "dragging," seemed to finally receive the command to be released. Carrying an Aura that could destroy heaven and earth, it smashed down upon the Puppet legion below!
A true "Heavenly River Downpour Down"!
The hundreds of Puppets at the forefront didn't even have time to struggle or react before being instantly crushed the moment they touched the water flow.
The sturdy Puppet bodies were as fragile as paper, and parts flew in all directions.
The flood did not stop; starting from Naruto, it roared and flattened everything in its path toward the direction the Puppet legion had come from!
Wherever it passed, whether it was ground rocks, broken ruins, or those cold Puppets, everything was ruthlessly destroyed by this irresistible, majestic power of the sea.
A dragon composed of water and broken Puppet remains continued to collide and crash.
Meanwhile, Naruto rode the golden cloud, flying forward along the path he had personally carved out.
Water Release of this level was something even Senju Tobirama could achieve, especially since there was an ocean nearby. In fact, using the Heavenly River Downpour this time consumed even less than when Naruto fought Roshi.
After all, the last time was a battle fought in the forests of the Land of Earth.
"There's no other way, I can only use that move."
Deep in the palace, in Toneri's perception, that terrifying figure riding the golden cloud and controlling the flood was getting closer and closer at extreme speed. The Puppet defensive lines along the way were like nothing, easily torn apart by the flood dragon.
After struggling internally for a moment, faced with this powerful enemy who far exceeded expectations and the imminent threat, Toneri made a decision.
He needed even greater power, power far beyond what his current body and the Puppets he controlled could carry! He needed more power from the Tenseigan!
No longer hesitating, Toneri acted quickly. He boarded a small flying craft unique to the moon's interior and turned into a streak of light, racing toward a specific coordinate in the moon's outer space.
Soon, he reached his destination.
This was a floating asteroid in outer space, upon which stood a stone temple of ancient, solemn, and grand style.
This place was called the Hamura Temple, a Holy Land established by the Ōtsutsuki branch family, who had won the civil war and annihilated the main family, to commemorate their ancestor, Otsutsuki Hamura.
And the most core, most shocking existence in the temple was that incredibly massive golden sphere floating above the center of the temple—the Giant Tenseigan!
It was like a miniature golden sun, emitting a warm and divine, yet infinite power-containing golden light.
The surface of the Tenseigan emitted a soft golden glow, and inside, it seemed as if golden liquid was slowly flowing.
Most peculiar were the several massive golden rings made of special metal surrounding the Giant Tenseigan, slowly rotating around it like the rings of a planet.
This Giant Tenseigan was the final form evolved over long years from the giant purple stone that the Ōtsutsuki branch family had formed by pooling the strength of the entire clan to fuse and sublimate their Byakugan.
It contained the will and power of the entire branch family and was now the most core source of power for the lunar Otsutsuki lineage.
Toneri stepped off the flying craft and stood beneath the Giant Tenseigan.
He looked up, and although he could not "see," he could clearly perceive that vast, sea-like, divine, and majestic golden Chakra.
He spoke to the Tenseigan in a respectful yet urgent tone:
"I am Toneri. If the will of the ancestors can still hear, please respond to me! A powerful external enemy is now invading the moon. I need even greater Tenseigan power to protect the peace here. Please lend me your strength!"
However, the only thing that responded to him was a deep silence.
That massive golden Tenseigan still floated there quietly, emitting light and slowly rotating.
It was just an eye, an aggregation of power, a crystallization of will, but it had no independent consciousness of its own; it could not speak, nor would it respond to specific requests.
It was more like an energy source and a vessel of Legacy with pre-set rules.
Not receiving the expected response, there was no look of discouragement or surprise on Toneri's face.
He had never expected this eye to "open its mouth to speak" or actively bestow power.
What he needed was never the ancestors' charity; he could take it himself.
Toneri's gaze focused as he stepped forward two paces, arriving at the closest position directly beneath the Giant Tenseigan.
He raised both hands, palms facing the golden sphere that radiated majestic energy.
"Since you won't respond..." Toneri muttered to himself, his tone carrying a hint of determination and unquestionable dominance, "then I will take it myself!"
"Please lend me your Chakra!"
The last sentence was almost a low growl.
At the same time, the Chakra within him belonging to the descendants of the Ōtsutsuki branch family operated at full capacity, establishing a deeper level of connection with the Giant Tenseigan.
He began to forcibly extract and absorb Chakra from the Giant Tenseigan.
