"Ryujiro, is that the Ten-Tails?"
"Yes, that's correct."
"And because of it, Madara was able to obtain Six Paths-level power."
"He truly is a monster."
Hinata could clearly sense the overwhelming energy emanating from the Ten-Tails. If that energy were ever unleashed, it would be enough to destroy the world.
Hidden in the shadows, Black Zetsu was utterly shocked by what he witnessed.
Madara had failed, and the plan to revive his mother had completely fallen apart.
Now, his only concern was figuring out how to transfer the Ten-Tails.
As long as the Ten-Tails remained, he still had a chance to turn the tide.
But just as he was deep in thought, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Those star-like eyes filled Black Zetsu with terror.
"Almost forgot about you."
Ryujiro spoke coldly.
"What are you going to do?!"
Black Zetsu cried out in fear, his voice trembling with terror.
Shhh—
With a swift slash, Ryujiro's sword mercilessly cut through the air.
The sheer power of the strike caused the space around it to distort, a testament to Ryujiro's terrifying strength.
With one strike, Black Zetsu let out a final, agonizing scream as his very soul was obliterated.
The last remnant left behind by Kaguya Otsutsuki was completely destroyed by Ryujiro.
Whoosh—
Ryujiro's speed broke through space itself, bringing him above the Ten-Tails.
With the great nations gone, the power of the Tailed Beasts was no longer necessary.
A creature like the Ten-Tails was a ticking time bomb that could destroy the shinobi world at any moment.
It's time to end this.
"Seeping crest of turbidity. Arrogant vessel of lunacy. Boil forth and deny. Grow numb and flicker. Disrupt sleep. Crawling queen of iron. Eternally self-destructing doll of mud. Unite. Repulse. Fill with soil and know your own powerlessness!!"
"Hado #90. Black Coffin!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As Ryujiro chanted, the Black Coffin rose from the ground, enveloping the massive Ten-Tails.
The Ten-Tails, sensing the danger, frantically tried to destroy the Black Coffin.
However, Ryujiro's power had long surpassed the Ten-Tails by countless levels.
Moreover, this was a chanted Black Coffin, its power far exceeding the one Aizen used against Ichigo Kurosaki.
"It's useless."
Watching the Ten-Tails being slowly sealed within the eerie Black Coffin, Ryujiro's eyes were devoid of any emotion.
He looked at the Ten-Tails as if it were nothing but a lifeless object.
Inside the Black Coffin, the space was warped by the overwhelming energy, twisting and tearing apart the Ten-Tails.
The violent energy within the Ten-Tails was helpless against the crushing force.
Even the Ten-Tails' Bijuu Dama couldn't destroy the Black Coffin.
The violent energy mercilessly devoured the Ten-Tails' body, gradually reducing it to fragments until it completely vanished from the Shinobi World.
From that moment on, the shinobi world was free of the Ten-Tails, leaving only the Nine-Tails and One-Tail.
Even they couldn't have imagined that Ryujiro would annihilate all the other Tailed Beasts, leaving only them behind.
Due to the immense disturbance caused by the battle, people from Konoha rushed to the Valley of the End.
When they saw the path carved out by Ryujiro's sword, they were all filled with dread.
"That's a sword mark!"
"A sword mark?!"
"Did Lord Ryujiro do this?"
"What exactly happened here?"
The ninjas, especially those who tried to get closer, found themselves unable to approach due to the lingering sword intent left by Ryujiro.
Just getting a bit closer made their skin feel like it was being torn apart.
As they looked at the distant, destroyed mountain peaks, the massive crater below the cliff, and the still-distorted space, everyone was left in stunned silence.
Months later, Ryujiro and Hinata walked through the streets, greeted by many people.
Ryujiro was now a prominent figure in Konoha, admired by countless people as an idol.
During these months, the Land of Fire had established numerous systems and managed its cities effectively.
Ryujiro merely nodded slightly in response to the greetings from the people.
Upon arriving at the Hokage's office, several familiar figures were present—Itachi, Orochimaru, Kimimaro, Kira, and... Sasuke.
Tsunade, with a helpless expression, looked at Ryujiro and sighed, "You've really given me quite a surprise."
Uchiha Itachi was one thing, but even Orochimaru had changed. However, the current Orochimaru seemed different from before.
Tsunade had wanted to meet the administrators of Konoha's cities, but she hadn't expected them to be her old, notorious acquaintances.
"Well, you did say you wanted to meet them, so I brought them all here," Ryujiro said with a faint smile.
Tsunade was momentarily speechless. Indeed, she had asked Ryujiro to bring the city lords, but she hadn't expected them to be former criminals of Konoha.
Apart from Kimimaro and the unknown Kira, the rest were all familiar faces.
As for Sasuke, he wasn't an administrator but merely followed Itachi.
Sasuke was currently helping Itachi maintain order in the Water City, creating a department similar to the old Konoha Police Force.
Sasuke and Itachi's ambition to restore the Uchiha Clan to its former glory was not an easy task.
Tsunade let out a deep sigh.
If the villagers found out, there might be trouble, but with Ryujiro around, the complaints probably wouldn't be too significant.
After exchanging a few words with Orochimaru, they left the Hokage's office to return to their respective duties.
Since Konoha unified the Shinobi World, the peace that people longed for had been realized.
The villages that voluntarily joined Konoha felt that they had made the right decision after these past few months.
On a certain street in Konoha, a tall figure in a black coat walked along.
Looking at the prosperity of Konoha, Kurotsuchi's expression was complex.
During these months, Kurotsuchi had stayed in Rock City, Water City, Lightning City, and Wind City for some time, witnessing the new era that Ryujiro had spoken of.
It truly was an unimaginable new era. Such peace would have been unthinkable before.
Kurotsuchi's feelings were complicated. She harbored resentment towards Ryujiro, but also something more complex.
To the people of the shinobi world, Ryujiro was the hero who ushered in a new era.
At least, that's what those who hadn't had their minds altered believed. Ryujiro had given them a better world.
With one last look at the prosperous streets, Kurotsuchi sighed inwardly and slowly walked out of Konoha.
