After leaving his inner space, Shishou returned to the place where he had just consumed the God Tree fruit. He glanced at the God Tree beside him and then at Kaguya, Tsunade, and the others standing by the tree.
Casually placing the remaining God Tree fruit flesh into his Kamui dimension, Shishou approached the group.
Seeing him return, Kaguya immediately asked, "How do you feel?" as she stared intently at the seemingly unchanged nine-tomoe Rinnegan in his forehead.
"Very good!" Shishou smiled and nodded.
He then explained to everyone the abilities he had gained after consuming the second God Tree fruit, as well as his plans for the future.
"You're saying you can now contain an entire star system???" Kaguya looked at him with disbelief, as if she were staring at a monster.
Kaguya had already found it terrifying that Shishou's Heavenly Transfer Technique could contain planets. Now, hearing that he could actually contain an entire star system and create his own internal universe was simply overwhelming!
This revelation not only shocked Kaguya but also left Tsunade, Mikoto, and the others looking as if they had just heard something out of a fairy tale.
After a moment of stunned silence, Tsunade was the first to regain her composure and asked Shishou, "You just said you plan to contain the star system where the ninja world resides within yourself?"
Hearing this, everyone else turned to Shishou, waiting to hear more details.
Feeling their gazes, Shishou explained, "Our long-term goal is immortality, so we can't stay in this star system forever. Eventually, we'll have to move to other regions of the universe.
"Although I've already turned the Otsutsuki clan's pursuers this time, they'll undoubtedly send more people in the future. If we just leave, the ninja world would be left in danger.
"So, instead, I plan to contain it within myself, ensuring its safety under my protection."
The most crucial point for Shishou was that the ninja world was his God Tree cultivation base, something he was absolutely unwilling to give up.
Tsunade pressed further, "Are you absolutely certain about this?"
She didn't mind Shishou containing the ninja world within himself, but she was concerned that this might bring unimaginable disasters to the people of the ninja world.
Shishou reassured her with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll make sure everything is perfectly safe before proceeding."
Everyone in the ninja world was a vital source of chakra for him, so there was no way he would let them come to harm.
Hearing this, Tsunade and the others relaxed, confident that Shishou would find a flawless solution.
Next, Shishou began preparing to share the flesh of the God Tree fruit with everyone.
The vast majority of the fruit's essence was in the core, and the remaining flesh held little value for him. By giving it to Tsunade, Mikoto, and the others, allowing them to awaken the Rinnegan through the power of the God Tree and quickly reach the Six Paths level, he would be maximizing the benefits.
"Hold on," Tsunade suddenly interrupted.
As Shishou looked at her in confusion, Tsunade turned to Kaguya and said, "Let's have a match first!"
After several years of growth, Tsunade was no longer afraid of things like Truth-Seeking Balls, so she wanted to challenge Kaguya to see if she could now stand against a Bloodline Selection level opponent.
Besides, she was also interested in claiming the position of the main wife.
Kaguya frowned but snorted, "Bring it on."
With that, Kaguya activated Heavenly Transfer and took Tsunade to another dimension.
Seeing this, Shishou decided not to follow, lest his presence make the battle more intense.
Half an hour later, Kaguya returned with Tsunade.
Judging by the displeased expression on Tsunade's face, Shishou guessed that Kaguya had won. After all, Kaguya was a genuine Bloodline Selection level being, and now that she had fully learned how to wield her powers under Shishou's guidance, it wasn't something Tsunade could overcome on her own.
After distributing the fruit flesh in the primordial sphere, Shishou went to the ninja world and shared the remaining fruit flesh with Ino, Tenten, and the others.
Of course, Shishou also set aside three portions for Urashiki, Momoshiki, and Kinshiki.
The three had been helping him for a while, and though they might not have achieved anything particularly significant, they had worked hard. They deserved a reward, especially since Shishou would need them to continue searching for life-sustaining planets in the starry skies. Naturally, he couldn't treat them poorly.
After all this, Shishou turned his attention to studying how to contain the ninja world's star system within his alternate space.
With billions of people in the ninja world, he had to be incredibly cautious.
Any mistake could potentially bring great disaster to the ninja world.
However, since the entire star system where the ninja world resided was in constant motion, directly containing it in his alternate space wasn't going to be easy.
Moreover, he needed to ensure that the movement of these celestial bodies wouldn't change during the containment process.
This was a significant challenge for him.
Additionally, containing an entire star system within his alternate space would require an immense amount of chakra, and he couldn't afford to experiment with other star systems.
After researching the containment of the star system for a while and not finding a breakthrough, Shishou resumed cultivating the God Tree.
Since the God Tree had already produced a second fruit, Shishou naturally needed to start preparing for the cultivation of a third fruit.
The God Tree fruit could continuously strengthen his nine-tomoe Rinnegan, enhancing his abilities.
The star system containment that was currently difficult might become much easier after he consumed the power of a third fruit.
So, in the coming period, Shishou continued collecting chakra from the ninja world while having Urashiki, Momoshiki, and Kinshiki continue to gather chakra energy from nearby star systems for the cultivation of the God Tree.
At the same time, he kept studying the containment of the star system as a backup plan.
Shishou also didn't neglect the transformation of the ninja world; whether it was the spread of chakra extraction techniques, the cultivation of religion, or the development of the Moon Palace's ninja system and contribution points, everything was proceeding in an orderly manner under his direction.
Of course, he couldn't do all of this alone, so he gradually brought Ino, Tenten, and the others into the Moon Palace to help with various tasks.
The people in Kaguya's primordial sphere also occasionally visited the ninja world to assist in his religious endeavors.
Among them, Katsuyu was the busiest.
Initially, Shishou didn't understand Katsuyu's unusual enthusiasm.
It wasn't until Katsuyu spoke up that he realized what she was thinking.
In response, Shishou said nothing.
He simply took her into his room.
