The wind howled across the broken sea as waves collapsed into themselves. The sky was already darkened, heavy with pressure, as if the heavens themselves knew what kind of clash was about to take place.
Reizan stood tall, his golden eyes narrowed at the figure in front of him. Getsuga, draped in his newly summoned black star armor, let the obsidian plating hum with a strange resonance, a dark halo swirling faintly around him.
Reizan smirked, folding his arms."So… you're resorting to equipment now? Armor, huh? I suppose you've realized your bare strength wasn't enough." His voice carried mockery sharp enough to slice. "But it won't make a difference. All that armor will do is let me pummel you harder before I send you to the void."
The taunt echoed through the battlefield.
Getsuga's lips curled into a snarl. His black Rinnegan pulsed with ominous light, and his pride refused to let Reizan's words stand."You arrogant bastard…" His voice was low, but heavy with rage. "We'll see who's the one lying broken in the end."
He took several steps back, wary, the seas beneath him trembling as his chakra warped the surrounding gravity. He knew—if he wasn't cautious, Reizan's speed and sheer brutality would tear him apart in moments.
With a sudden roar, Getsuga thrust out his hand. "Take this, brat! Black-Hole Devastation!"
At once, his Black Rinnegan blazed like an eclipse. The space around Reizan buckled unnaturally, twisting as if reality itself was being crumpled. A crushing force dragged at the atmosphere, pulling everything toward a point that grew darker and darker—until it condensed into a black sphere that warped light itself.
Reizan's eyes flickered.Tch. Dangerous. He felt the gravitational well gnawing at his body, threatening to shred it atom by atom. His Black Rinnegan really is unique… A fascinating power. Maybe I should just rip those eyes from his skull before I finish him.
A shimmer ran across his frame. He blurred, his form breaking into afterimages as he flickered out of the danger zone in an instant.
The black sphere swelled, ballooning larger, until—
BOOOOOOM!
The black hole ruptured violently, and space itself cracked like shattered glass. A wave of distortion ripped outward, shredding the sea in half. An entire section of ocean simply vanished, erased from existence. A super-space ripple cascaded outward, annihilating everything caught within its radius.
Getsuga let out a feral laugh. "Hahaha! Let's see you survive that!"
But his laughter froze the moment his senses caught something. Far away, on the shattered horizon, Reizan reappeared—calm, untouched, golden chakra faintly trailing his cloak. His mocking smirk was still there.
Reizan lifted a finger as if chastising a child. "Not bad. Honestly, that move impressed me. If it had caught me dead-on, I might've actually felt it. You're not just talk after all." His tone shifted, low and dangerous. "But that's still all it is. Not enough."
The arrogance stabbed straight into Getsuga's chest. His mind reeled.How…?! That blast should've reached him no matter where he ran! His body… his speed… how could he have outrun space collapsing?!
"Impossible!" Getsuga shouted, veins popping on his forehead. "That explosion should have swallowed you whole! How did you—"
But Reizan didn't let him finish. His form blurred again, faster than thought.
"Now… it's my turn."
Before Getsuga could even register, a shadow appeared in front of him. Reizan's golden cloak rippled as his leg snapped forward like a divine hammer.
BAM!
The kick struck Getsuga's chestplate. Though the armor absorbed much of the spiritual and soul-damaging force, the raw physical momentum transferred brutally into his body. Getsuga's frame shot through the air like a ragdoll, a kite cut loose in a storm.
His breath caught. His insides twisted. He could feel bile surge up his throat—
"Ghhhaaa!" Getsuga gagged, spewing stomach fluids into the air. His body screamed with agony. Though unbroken, the organs inside him churned violently from the concussive backlash. It wasn't a fatal wound—but the pain was unbearable, and the humiliation worse.
"Damn you…!" His roar carried fury and desperation.
Stopping himself midair with a gravity burst, Getsuga floated, panting, his black Rinnegan flaring with a crimson gleam of rage. His teeth ground together as he slammed his palms together.
"I'll wipe that smirk off your face! Planetary Devastation—X!"
The world itself trembled. A pitch-black sphere condensed before him, radiating a suffocating force. Then, unlike the usual technique, the sphere began spinning violently.
At once, debris from the environment—rock, water, shattered land, even the air itself—was sucked toward it. The sphere's rotation quickened, grinding everything into a storm of destruction.
The black orb shifted, glowing red as the forces within intensified. A monstrous disk formed, blazing with gravitational fury.
The sea emptied. Mountains crumbled into the air. The soil ripped from the ground, the magma beneath dragged upward in a river of fire. The planet itself screamed as the disk spun faster and faster, tearing the crust apart.
Reizan's golden eyes narrowed.So he's not holding back anymore… This isn't like the standard Planetary Devastation. This is something else entirely. A variant. A weapon to annihilate, not seal. It's strong enough to consume an entire world if unchecked.
For once, his smirk faded into a look of intrigue. "Interesting. I suppose I'll need to get a bit serious."
His pupils shifted. A radiant glow erupted from his eyes.
The Golden Tenseigan unfurled.
A dazzling brilliance exploded outward, drowning the battlefield in gold. Reizan's body became cloaked in shimmering light, nine tomoe orbiting across his golden aura. His chakra poured out in torrents, enough to make the heavens tremble.
The ocean bent away. The air vibrated violently. The world itself seemed to kneel.
Getsuga felt it immediately—his bones shook, his instincts screaming death. His face twisted.This… this pressure… His aura is suffocating. If I let him attack now… I'll—
"Spin faster… faster!" Getsuga howled, forcing the red disk's rotation to the limit. The planet's surface collapsed entirely, swallowed by the gravitational tides. The seas vanished. Magma geysered into the air only to be shredded. Mountains disintegrated into dust.
But the more Getsuga forced it, the more the technique turned against him. Blood streamed from his nose, his mouth. Even his cells screamed as parts of his body began tugging toward the spinning cataclysm.
"I can't hold it—!" His eyes widened in horror. He had reached his limit. Desperation overtook him. With a final roar, he hurled the red disk toward Reizan.
The apocalyptic construct tore through the world, dragging behind it an entire continent's worth of matter. The sky darkened completely. Annihilation itself surged forward.
The audience outside—Suzan and the elders of the Ōtsutsuki—watched in stunned silence. The viewing screens trembled under the sheer destructive scale.
Reizan stood calmly, his golden cloak shimmering. His voice carried like thunder.
"Witness it. The light that judges all darkness."
He raised his hand. Golden energy spiraled upward, condensing into an impossibly vast blade of light—radiant, divine, extending past the planet's atmosphere into the stars themselves.
"True Golden Wheel: Ultimate Explosion."
The sword descended.
A blinding brilliance tore through reality itself. The golden blade met the red disk.
KRRRSHHHHHHHHHHH!
The collision detonated with a roar louder than a hundred worlds dying. The shockwave cut through dimensions, reverberating through space.
The red disk screamed as it was cleaved apart, the storm of destruction split neatly down the center. The golden sword didn't stop—it carved straight through the attack, through the landscape, through the planet beneath Reizan's feet.
Getsuga's pupils shrank. He couldn't even scream before the golden light engulfed him. His armored body was split cleanly in two, severed like paper beneath a razor.
But the blade still didn't stop.
It carved straight through the planet's core.
CRAAAAACK!
The sound was deafening. Even through the void of space, it reverberated. The audience outside gasped.
Suzan's jaw dropped. "Im…possible. He—he split the planet in half…"
The elders stood frozen, speechless.
Before their eyes, Planet-1000A fractured. A perfect line divided its surface, cleaving down to the core. Then, in silence, the planet detonated.
BOOOOOOOM!
A white light engulfed the screen. The massive explosion rippled outward, enough to consume entire star systems if not for the barrier Suzan desperately erected. The shield quivered, holding the apocalyptic power within.
When the light faded, there was nothing left.
Planet-1000A no longer existed. Only an empty void remained, rippling with broken space.
From that void, a portal opened. Slowly, a figure stepped forth—bathed in golden light, cloak fluttering with divine power. Reizan emerged, untouched, his smirk returned.
In his hands gleamed two eyes—the twin Black Rinnegan he had ripped from Getsuga's corpse at the very instant the golden blade cleaved him in half.
Reizan's smile was razor-thin."A parting gift," he murmured his voice soft, yet carrying like thunder across the void. He remembered the scene where after the golden light split Getsuga in 2 halves then reizan with a flick of his wrist, the stole Getsuga's eyes then he vanished into a swirling distortion using his Space Domain Divine Technique sealing them away in a pocket dimension where only he could touch.Then he used the Space domain on himself before the planet exploded.
"Still…" he muttered, glancing back at the empty void where a planet once hung, "…that final move even surprised me." His golden Rinnegan glowed faintly, reflecting starlight. "If I recall correctly, Toneri once boasted of splitting the moon. A feat, yes—but limited."
His smirk curved sharper. "The True Golden Wheel: Ultimate Explosion… is on another level entirely. To cleave not just a moon, but an entire planet, and to make it detonate in the process… Truly, that's an improvement worthy of the Golden-Tenseigan."
