When the people of the shinobi world heard that Nagi might have reached the level of the Ōtsutsuki God, they were all stunned.
After all, they had no understanding of the dimensional level of the Ōtsutsuki God, so they had no idea what tier Nagi's strength had truly reached.
However, Isshiki and Kaguya, who had once interacted with Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki and the others, had been fortunate enough to witness the greatness of Shibai's divine abilities before he became a god.
It was a power that felt absolutely impossible to resist.
And now, from Nagi, they sensed an even stronger pressure than before.
A pressure that came from the soul itself—a suppression from a higher dimension of life.
[Hashirama Senju: Hahaha! Amazing! My disciple actually reached the realm of the Ōtsutsuki God!]
[Madara Uchiha: Hmph. That kid still manages to surprise everyone. But that's exactly what makes him interesting.]
[Ōnoki: Nagi really reached the level of the Ōtsutsuki God!? I'm not dreaming, am I?]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: This isn't a dream. Nagi reached that level even faster than we imagined.]
[Rasa: It seems this is truly a blessing for our shinobi world.]
[Naruto Uzumaki: Nagi really became a god? Seriously?]
[Sasuke Uchiha: Now that I think about it… didn't Nagi break through a bit too fast?]
[Orochimaru: Hehehe… perhaps this was destined from the very beginning. Nagi himself said: cultivating the Yin-Yang principle requires understanding the transformations of heaven and earth, mastering Yin and Yang, grasping the mystery of virtue, and realizing the truth of life.]
[Kabuto Yakushi: Lord Nagi understands the truth of techniques and the laws of heaven and earth. He cultivated both Yin and Yang paths to their ultimate transformation. Lord Second taught him the principles of ethics and truth, and Lord Nagi studied ancient philosophies deeply. All of this allowed him to attain the Yin-Yang principle and become an immortal.]
[Jiraiya: This "immortal"… compared to Sage Mode…]
[Hashirama Senju: They're not even in the same league.]
[Tobirama Senju: If we speak in terms of dimensions, my brother's Sage Mode is still within the realm of powerful humans. Nagi's immortality… is probably that of a true celestial being.]
[Orochimaru: No wonder Nagi always struggled when using natural energy or Sage Mode. The energy inside his body was likely true immortal energy all along. It naturally rejected mortal power.]
[Black Zetsu: M-Mother… that Shiranui Nagi really…]
[Kaguya Ōtsutsuki: Black Zetsu, mind your manners. You should address him as Lord Nagi.]
At this moment, Kaguya finally understood just how enormous Nagi's backing truly was.
If she could board Nagi's ship…
The Ōtsutsuki main family would be nothing.
[Black Zetsu: Uh…]
[The screen continues…]
Nagi calmly looked at the people below.
At that moment, his heart felt completely empty—like a tranquil lake without the slightest ripple.
No hatred.
No resentment.
No sorrow.
No joy.
No desire.
No conflict.
This was Nagi's current state of mind.
Suddenly, he seemed to sense something.
Turning around, he looked toward the distant galaxy and smiled faintly, as if greeting someone.
Then he slowly descended until he was at the same height as the Jashin's gaze.
The Jashin's face was filled with terror.
It felt as though the being before it was something absolutely impossible to oppose.
Nagi looked at it calmly and smiled.
"Mr. Jashin, it seems you have committed unforgivable crimes."
"So… would you kindly go to hell?"
Though phrased as a question, the tone was clearly a statement.
Strangely enough—
The Jashin seemed to treat those terrifying words like divine music, nodding frantically.
"Mm. Good child. Then…"
Snap.
Nagi looked satisfied and snapped his fingers.
"World Collapse."
The Jashin's eyes suddenly lost their focus.
Then its enormous body began disintegrating into blue particles.
Soon the entire Jashin dissolved into countless glowing blue motes.
They gathered together in Nagi's palm.
And just like that—
The Jashin's life came to an end.
The reason?
Simply because Nagi issued a command… and snapped his fingers to execute it.
Nagi slowly descended to the ground.
Seeing his immortal-like bearing, the Kumogakure shinobi instinctively felt the urge to worship him.
Cee spoke hesitantly.
"Um…"
Nagi smiled.
"Just call me Nagi."
"Uh… Lord Nagi… that monster earlier…"
"Yes. It has disappeared from this world."
"Whew… that's good."
Everyone let out a sigh of relief.
That terrifying monster had finally been destroyed.
Cee asked cautiously again:
"Um… Lord Nagi… your current state…"
Nagi looked around at the Kumogakure shinobi.
He noticed that they all regarded him with a sense of reverence.
"My strength just advanced a little. It seems I haven't fully controlled it yet."
From his space–time sealing storage, Nagi took out a shirt and put it on.
As he did, the immortal aura surrounding him gradually stabilized.
The Cloud shinobi sighed in relief again, though their reverence for him remained.
After dressing, Nagi said:
"You all worked hard in this battle."
"No, no—it was you who worked the hardest!"
"That's right! You were the one fighting on the front lines!"
Nagi waved his hand slightly.
Then he opened his palm.
"Soul Return: Revival."
A vibrant green light of life emerged from his palm.
"Those who fought bravely and sacrificed themselves in this battle…"
"…it's time to wake up."
Suddenly—
A Kumogakure ninja lying on a rock opened his eyes and slowly stood up.
"Huh? Wasn't I dead? Wait… am I alive?"
Another fallen ninja got up, looking around in confusion.
The surrounding people looked at him with even greater shock.
Even a shinobi who had been smashed into fragments by the Jashin's claw began to reform.
His body reassembled piece by piece before he awakened.
"Ow! That hurt—wait… it doesn't hurt? Uh… but wasn't I dead?"
One by one—
The fallen Kumogakure ninja came back to life.
At first, Raikage A and Killer B were completely shocked.
But eventually, they became numb to the miracle unfolding before them.
Those who witnessed the scene believed only one thing—
This was divine intervention.
A miracle created by Nagi.
[Fourth Raikage A: Th-this… what an incredible resurrection technique!]
[Ōnoki: Sigh… another heaven-defying revival technique. Even someone turned into dust can be revived.]
[Gengetsu Hōzuki: Honestly, compared to Nagi's strength, resurrection techniques don't seem that impressive anymore.]
[Tobirama Senju: Exactly. Unlike someone who spent his whole life planning his own resurrection.]
[Madara Uchiha: You white-haired bastard, can't you say something nice for once?]
[Tobirama Senju: Hm? I said "someone." I never mentioned your name. Why are you getting so defensive?]
[Madara Uchiha: …]
Even so—
Madara suddenly felt that the Outer Path — Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique of his Rinnegan didn't seem nearly as valuable anymore.
After all…
He had spent years carefully planning his resurrection.
Yet Nagi could now perform it casually with a wave of his hand.
