As the analysis continued, various chakra gathered in Anya's hands, forming from nothing into existence. From his most proficient Lightning Release to Wind Release, a technique he had never learned before, all elemental styles came naturally to him without the slightest hindrance.
Everything in the world gradually converged toward himself. The Six Paths' Planetary Devastation, once capable of sealing his own consciousness, no longer posed any threat.
Empowered by potent Yin Release, his soul body brazenly broke free from the Black Sphere.
Two familiar figures came into view. Anya activated the Soul Body Technique he had learned from Rin Nohara, transformed into a spirit form, and stood before them.
"Hakuto, Master, why are you here? No wonder I felt the Blade of Indifference stir earlier."
Hakuto joyfully stepped forward and said, "Anya, you scared me to death. I thought something had happened to you."
White Fang, however, wasn't surprised. Glancing a few times at the black spot above, he said, "It must be a Sealing Technique I've never seen before. Who trapped you here?"
"Black Zetsu."
Hearing those four words again, White Fang gave an odd look and angrily rebuked, "Speak clearly."
Seeing his master begin to lose his temper, Anya didn't hesitate and quickly explained, "Unlike the current Fourth Great Ninja War, he has been the hidden force behind the entire history of the ninja world. He is the origin of chakra himself — created by Kaguya and later known as Black Zetsu of the Akatsuki Organization."
"Oh, so he's someone that important. But he feels pretty weak to me," Hakuto said, having seen Black Zetsu before, but he didn't make much of an impression.
White Fang's face turned solemn as he asked, "If what you're saying is true, what has been his purpose throughout the entire history of the ninja world as this hidden hand?"
"To save his mother, Kaguya," Anya didn't hide anything and frankly replied. "To put it simply, the entire history of the ninja world has been about Black Zetsu trying to save his mother. However, this time he is closer to success than ever before."
White Fang got straight to the point and asked, "Then do you know how he plans to do it?"
"I do," Anya's eyes flashed with a glint. "The moment Infinite Tsukuyomi is cast will be the moment Kaguya returns."
Startled, White Fang exclaimed, "So the Moon's Eye Plan is actually a plan to resurrect Kaguya. Does Madara Uchiha know this?"
Anya offered a knowing smile and replied, "Master, what do you think?"
"He certainly doesn't," White Fang couldn't help but sigh deeply. "Never thought that such a great figure like him would also be manipulated and used as a pawn. What will happen to him when Kaguya appears?"
"Kaguya's immense power still needs a vessel."
That single sentence was enough to summarize Madara Uchiha's fate.
After a brief pause, White Fang turned to Hakuto and said, "You don't need to stay here anymore. I'll stay with Anya. Your Space–Time Ninjutsu is perfect for support. The enemy is already approaching the final step — go, gather all the high-level ninja in the Ninja World for the final battle."
Seeing Anya also nodding at her, Hakuto obediently agreed, "Okay then, I'll head out first."
After Hakuto left, master and disciple locked eyes for a few seconds. Eventually, it was Anya who spoke first, "Master, you deliberately sent Hakuto away. Is there something you want to tell me alone?"
"That's right."
White Fang's gaze toward Anya turned serious, his tone filled with an unprecedented sense of admiration. "Earlier, you told me you were the hidden force behind the Fourth Great Ninja War. I was half convinced and half doubtful. But now, watching you explain everything so calmly, as if you had full control of the entire situation, speaking words filled with secrets unknown to the world, I finally know the truth — everything you said before was real. What happens next was all within your expectations. Yet you never tried to stop it. Instead, you've always taken a passive stance. I can't understand your true purpose, but I can roughly guess it. You plan to summon Kaguya into this world. Once she truly appears, as the originator of chakra, how do you intend to face her?"
"Master, do you believe in me?" Anya did not answer directly. Instead, he responded with a hopeful counter-question.
White Fang gave a bitter smile and said, "As your master, I believe in you. As the White Fang of Konoha, I want an answer."
Anya's eyes flickered with delight. "Good thing too. You've already died once, so the title of the White Fang no longer exists. From now on, no titles will exist in the Ninja World. Because after the Fourth Great War, there will no longer be any ninjas."
"So your so-called reform has never been about uniting the Ninja World, but rather about destroying the ninja system at its very foundation," White Fang realized at last.
Anya replied calmly, "Indeed."
"This is walking a razor's edge. One wrong step and everything falls apart. Do you realize that if you fail, it won't just mean the end of the ninja system — it will mean the total extinction of humanity? This world will become a desolate wasteland devoid of life, hope, or vitality," White Fang shook his head in disappointment. "Anya, this time, I can't —"
"Master," Anya interrupted with a smile, "as fellow swordsmen, don't you find this kind of boring conversation tedious? How about we let our swords decide — winner takes all?"
White Fang's gaze pierced like a blade as he met Anya's eyes and coldly said, "So you believe your swordsmanship has already reached perfection, and thus you look down on everything?"
Anya offered a quiet, confident smile. "Perfection? There is no such thing. If there ever was, wouldn't that just represent stagnation? All I can do is strive ceaselessly and move forward without hesitation."
His words left White Fang in deep thought. After a long silence, he finally raised the Blade of Indifference and said, "Here. Your sword."
"Looks like you've made your choice, Master," Anya said joyfully. "I've already made the Blade of Indifference obey your command. As for my sword, I'll use this one."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Six Blades roared with a buzzing sound as they shot out from the Black Sphere above and fused together in Anya's hand. It was the Supreme Blade — but now completely transformed. At its center, the gemstone controlling the blades radiated dazzling light, pulsing with strange energy. The once-Six Blades had fused into a single pitch-black form. At first glance, the darkness of the blades appeared eerily transparent, as if one could see right through them. Staring longer would draw one's very soul into their abyssal depths.
"What kind of weapon is this?" White Fang, rarely showing curiosity, asked.
Anya held her weapon before her chest with pride and declared, "This is my second blade, just upgraded with new enhancements. Its power now rivals my Blade of Indifference. Master, watch out."
While studying the [Yin-Yang Release], Anya always felt something was missing—a thin veil she couldn't penetrate. It wasn't until she understood the difference between herself and the Sage of Six Paths that she realized what it was: the Ten-Tails.
Without hesitation, Anya absorbed part of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path's Chakra into her body. With this supplement of Ten-Tails Chakra, the world's secrets were laid bare before her. At this moment, her soul, body, and Sage Chakra were completely elevated. She finally mastered the [Yin-Yang Release], and six [Black Orbs]—[Truth-Seeking Balls]—emerged behind her.
However, immediately after their appearance, Anya transformed these [Truth-Seeking Balls] into the purest form of energy and directly infused them into [The Supreme Blade]. This process resulted in the brand-new weapon now in her hands.
