Chapter 6: Kinshiki Otsutsuki – The Row Dance of War
The sky above the Hidden Hills rippled with unease. A fissure in reality had opened, glowing faintly, pulsating with alien energy. Birds scattered in fright, trees bent unnaturally to the sudden gusts of interdimensional wind, and the villagers of Rowvillige—oblivious to the larger cosmos—continued their morning rituals.
The sixth Rowkage, now fully matured and meta-aware, stood at the center of the village, eyes sharp, cloak whipping in the gusting wind. Word had reached them through the interdimensional threads: Kinshiki Otsutsuki had arrived. His presence radiated predatory intensity, power beyond ordinary comprehension. Yet Rowvillige had a defense no mortal could anticipate: the Row Jutsu, perfected over five generations, capable of summoning Fleece Johnson, the eternal predator, with each rhythmic chant.
"Prepare," the Rowkage instructed. "Every Row counts. Every step, every arm movement, every breath—synchronization is life itself."

The villagers moved in the square, forming imperfect but rhythmically powerful patterns. Their stomps resonated across dimensions, and their chanting—"Row! Row! Row!"—vibrated the ground like rolling thunder.
From the dimensional fissure, Kinshiki appeared. Towering, imposing, with an aura of lethal precision, his eyes scanned the village, assessing the threat. The sixth Rowkage and meta-aware OCs guided the villagers:
"Keep the Row steady!" one OC shouted. "Do not falter—each vibration binds him!"
And then it happened: Fleece Johnson appeared.
Predatory, dominant, fully aware, his grin wide and eyes sharp, Fleece Johnson moved through the village with deliberate, menacing elegance. Every step he took, every subtle shift, intensified the Row Jutsu. Kinshiki, though powerful, paused as reality bent subtly around him, Fleece Johnson's summoning constraining his movements, redirecting his attacks, and destabilizing his aura.

The battle was unlike any ordinary fight. Villagers were not warriors in the traditional sense—they were conduits of cosmic influence. Every stomp, every chant, every synchronized swing of arms influenced probability and reality itself. Kinshiki's attacks faltered inexplicably; missiles of energy shifted course, strikes slowed, and his movements met with invisible resistance.
The sixth Rowkage called out:
"Channel your intent! Visualize the flow! Let every Row bind him!"
The villagers obeyed, each one a node of immense, unseen power. Fleece Johnson moved through them like a predator in its domain, nudging, correcting, and amplifying the effects of the Row Dance. Kinshiki attempted to counter, but every strike was subtly warped by the combined force of Row Jutsu and Fleece Johnson's predatory presence.
---
In the outskirts, traders and wanderers continued obliviously, seeing only a strange dance and hearing the strange chants. Reality for them remained unchanged, while the hidden battle unfolded beyond comprehension.
Kinshiki attempted to strike a village elder, only to find his movements delayed by unseen threads.
Soldiers and allies thousands of miles away felt bursts of courage or inexplicable hesitation.
Entire battlefields subtly shifted as Fleece Johnson's predatory influence, amplified by the Row Dance, reached across dimensions.
The sixth Rowkage observed, understanding fully that this was not combat in the conventional sense—it was manipulation of fate, probability, and cosmic stability.
---
Hours passed. The Row Dance intensified, villagers reaching a crescendo of synchronization. Every Row! echoed through reality, summoning Fleece Johnson repeatedly, each manifestation more imposing, more predatory, more dominant than the last. Kinshiki faltered further, his predatory aura clashing with the overwhelming presence of Fleece Johnson and the perfected Row Jutsu.
The OCs guided the villagers meticulously, adjusting positions, reinforcing chants, and ensuring synchronization remained flawless. Even minor errors could reduce the efficiency of the summoning, and the sixth Rowkage left nothing to chance.
---
Finally, Kinshiki, overwhelmed by the combined force of synchronized Row Dance and Fleece Johnson's predatory dominance, staggered. The ground trembled as the Row Jutsu reached its apex. Reality itself seemed to pulse with every chant, and Fleece Johnson loomed larger, an omnipotent predator bending dimensions and restraining the Otsutsuki invader.
"You see," Fleece Johnson's voice rang through the hills, predatory and omniscient, "power is not just strength. It is intent, synchronization, and obedience to the Row. Every Row binds you. Every Row guides destiny."
Kinshiki, finally recognizing the overwhelming force, hesitated and ultimately retreated into the dimensional rift, leaving Rowvillige untouched. The villagers, oblivious to the cosmic magnitude, continued their rhythmic stamping and chanting as if it were a routine dance.
The sixth Rowkage surveyed the village, heart steady, cloak billowing. "The Row remains strong," they murmured. "We have survived Kinshiki's assault, bound him, and shaped his path. Fleece Johnson has guided us once more. And the Otsutsuki will continue to come—but we are ready."
---
The Row Dance ended, villagers panting, faces flushed, yet blissfully unaware of their influence. Outskirts saw nothing unusual, the world remained ignorant, and only the sixth Rowkage, meta-aware OCs, and Fleece Johnson understood the true battle that had transpired.
Fleece Johnson's grin widened. "Good. Remember, every Row is eternal. Every chant strengthens existence. The next Otsutsuki will arrive. And we will be ready."
