Black Naruto: Shadow Moon

Uchiha Kagezuki and Otsutsuki Yuhui walked through the ruins on the surface of the moon and entered a huge underground passage.

The surface environment of the moon is harsh, and the desolate scenery makes it almost impossible to feel any breath of life. As Yu Hui said, the surface of the moon is not suitable for survival.

Shadow Moon noticed that their footsteps echoed on the empty rock walls and the air was thick with the smell of dust, as if every step was a reminder of the desolation and cruelty of this land.

Soon, they entered a huge underground city.

Despite the limited resources on the moon, the complex demonstrates the Ōtsutsuki clan's superior engineering capabilities.

The underground environment has been carefully designed, with artificial oxygen and climate control systems, and even some basic crop growing areas. Although it is not rich, it is enough to sustain the survival of the Otsutsuki clan.

Yingyue looked around at the buildings and felt a strong sense of oppression.

Although it is supported by artificial lighting and an air purification system, it still gives people a lifeless feeling.

Compared to the prosperity of the ninja world, the living conditions here seem extremely poor.

Although Yingyue had been prepared, the scene before him still shocked him.

"It must be hard for you to live here?" Yingyue looked at Yuhui with a hint of sympathy in her tone.

Yu Hui nodded and sighed, "Yes, the resources on the moon are extremely scarce. Our people have relied on these underground buildings to survive all year round, but even so, we still often face problems of food shortages and lack of daily necessities. Although we have strong bloodlines and talents, the limitations of the environment still make it difficult for us to prosper."

Yingyue was silent for a moment, his eyes sweeping across every corner of this underground city: "It can be seen that your people are not having an easy time."

Yingyue paused, and his tone became more cautious, "The conflict between your main family and branch family is probably not just about the destiny left by your ancestors Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Hamura, right?"

Yu Hui frowned slightly, obviously not expecting Ying Yue to get straight to the point. He sighed, "You're right, this is not just about the destiny of our clan. The conflict between the branch family and the main family actually stems from many deeper reasons."

There was a glimmer of insight in Yingyue's eyes, and Yingyue had already realized the real reason for the dispute.

Uchiha Yingyue leaned forward slightly and stared at Yuhui: "You mentioned earlier that the branch family felt that the main family did not distribute the limited resources on the moon fairly. This unequal status is the root cause of the branch family's rebellion, right?"

Otsutsuki Yuki was silent for a moment, and finally whispered: "That's right. In fact, the resources on the moon have always been scarce, especially basic resources such as minerals and food. In order to survive, we have to strictly manage these resources. But the main family has always controlled most of the resources. Although the branch family has powerful bloodlines and abilities, it has never been treated equally. This oppression has caused strong dissatisfaction among the branch family members."

Yingyue nodded and had more thoughts in her mind.

Yingyue knew that the rebellion of the branch family was not just for the so-called "destiny" or to rebuild the ninja world, but was more likely due to the long-standing resentment caused by the lack of resources on the moon.

In such an environment, the conflict between the main family and the branch family is destined to be irreconcilable.

"It's understandable that your people are reacting in order to survive," Yingyue said calmly, "but the root of the problem is still the lack of resources and unfair distribution. The resources on the moon are scarce, and the population is constantly expanding, which will inevitably lead to a vicious cycle. Even if the separation is successful for a while, it will only be a mirage if you want to completely change the status quo."

A hint of hesitation flashed in Otsutsuki Yuki's eyes: "You are right. The resources on the moon are really limited, and the fighting among our clans is getting more and more intense. The branch family does have some overly radical ideas, especially since they have recently begun to study the Samsara Eye. It seems that they intend to use it to enhance their strength and even make us change our relationship with the ninja world."

Uchiha Yingyue's eyes narrowed, and he turned to look at Yuhui: "Samsarangan? They plan to use the Samsaragan to gain stronger power? Doesn't that mean..."

Otsutsuki Hanaki nodded, his expression complicated: "Yes, the branch family hopes to break through the current limitations through the power of the Samsara Eye. The Samsara Eye is already extraordinary. If they succeed, they may be able to change the balance of power between the Moon and the Ninja World in one fell swoop."

Yingyue was shocked. She knew the power of the Samsara Eye. It was an eye with almost the same power as the Rinnegan.

If the branch family can really gain stronger power through the Rinnegan, it will pose some threat to the entire ninja world.

Yingyue stood in the center of the underground city on the moon. The low buildings and tense atmosphere around him made him feel a deep pressure.

Yingyue knew that although the Otsutsuki clan on the moon seemed powerful on the surface, the power they could exert in this desolate land was far less than that of the Ninja World.

However, if the branch family really decides to overthrow the rule of the main family and give it a try, then war and tension on the moon will be inevitable.

Yingyue gradually formed a decision in her mind - no matter what, the plan to split the family must be curbed.

Moreover, Yingyue does not think that the branch family wants to destroy the ninja world only because of the so-called destiny left by their ancestors. The real motive hidden in this is more about resources. These purposes are precisely what the branch family cannot express clearly and require a noble motive.

"Mr. Yuhui, although I understand your predicament, if the branch family really takes extreme measures, not only will the situation on the moon get out of control, but the ninja world will also fall into an unprecedented crisis." Yingyue said in a low voice, "Your people must face the reality. Destroying the ninja world is tantamount to destroying the Great Wall."

Otsutsuki Yuhui looked at Yingyue, as if he was thinking about something, and finally spoke slowly: "Are you saying that you want the branch family to give up their plan?"

Yingyue nodded firmly, "Yes, I am willing to lend a hand and help you calm this storm. There should be no more meaningless wars on the moon. The mission of your Otsutsuki clan is to protect, not destroy. If you can join me, I will ensure that your people, especially the branch families, can see new hope."

Yu Hui was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "If you really want to help us, I am willing to give it a try."

Yingyue smiled slightly, his eyes full of determination: "Sir Yuhui, the future of your Otsutsuki clan will be rewritten in our cooperation. I will ensure that the resources of the moon and your destiny will no longer be restricted by fighting and oppression."

However, Yingyue knew that this battle for resources, power and destiny had just begun.

It remains unknown whether the branch family on the moon can be dissuaded and whether the threat of the Samsara Eye can be contained.

But no matter what, he has stood at the center of the storm.
