The Five Kage reached a consensus: they would form an alliance to fight the Akatsuki and stop the masked man’s plan.
Meanwhile, in the Land of Whirlpools—Shin also learned of the Five Kage Summit and Obito’s declaration of war.
He wondered if there was truly some kind of “World Will” at play.
“In that case, it means Kaguya Ōtsutsuki’s revival isn’t far off.”
Shin believed that as long as he didn’t interfere, and the hidden Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki also didn’t interfere—Kaguya Ōtsutsuki would definitely be revived—just like in the original story.
Shin himself certainly wouldn’t interfere.
He wanted Kaguya to be revived—and through Kaguya, he could learn many secrets about this world.
The Ōtsutsuki Clan was probably the biggest secret in the Naruto world. The origin of chakra could be said to be entirely due to the God Tree planted by the Ōtsutsuki Clan.

Less than half a day after Shin received the intel, Nawaki and Hiashi Hyūga arrived in the Land of Whirlpools.
Their purpose, of course, was to find Shin—
“Why are you two here? And together?” Shin looked at Nawaki and Hiashi Hyūga with confusion.
“Um, I came to ask you something,” Nawaki said, hesitating slightly.
“If you have questions, ask quickly. Don’t waste my time.”
Shin looked at Nawaki’s hesitant expression and said impatiently. He didn’t want to waste time with Nawaki’s hemming and hawing.
“Alright, since you put it that way, I’ll ask. Um, I wanted to ask, do you know about the Eye of the Moon Plan?”
Nawaki glanced at Hiashi Hyūga, who turned his head away, unwilling to speak. So, Nawaki had to ask.
“Oh, so that’s the question… Of course, I know… I know about the Eye of the Moon Plan. What about it??”
Shin had thought they were going to ask something else. So it was just this.
“Uh, you know? Are you also involved in this Eye of the Moon Plan?”
Nawaki’s emotions were somewhat agitated. If that was the case, wouldn’t it mean he would have to become enemies with Shin??
“I know what you mean. In short, this matter is complicated, involving many things. I can’t explain it clearly to you in a short time.”
Shin felt a headache coming on. He didn’t know where to start explaining to Nawaki.
“Then can you tell me about it?”
Nawaki and Hiashi Hyūga both adopted an attitude of listening respectfully, waiting for Shin to continue.
“Alright, since you want to know, and I happen to have some free time, I’ll tell you. But not here. Follow me back, and we’ll talk.” Shin said to Nawaki.
They were currently at the seaside, not at Shin’s home.
“Ah, we have to go back with you?”
Nawaki’s face showed reluctance. Going back with Shin… wouldn’t that mean seeing his sister?
Honestly, Nawaki really didn’t want to see Tsunade. He was afraid of being lectured by her.
“Let’s go—” Shin kicked Nawaki lightly, then led the way.
Helpless, Nawaki and Hiashi Hyūga could only follow. They wanted to know the secrets of the Eye of the Moon Plan.
———
Arriving home, Nawaki was thrilled to find Tsunade wasn’t there.
Only Mikoto and Konan were home. The others had gone fishing at the seaside.
“Can you tell us now?” Nawaki asked Shin impatiently.
Nawaki was thinking of learning the truth and leaving quickly, lest Tsunade catch him. Then he wouldn’t be able to escape even if he wanted to.
“Alright, I’ll tell you then.”
Shin told Nawaki some of the secrets about the Eye of the Moon Plan, such as it being Madara Uchiha’s creation, and the masked Obito Uchiha being merely an executor.
However, Shin didn’t tell Nawaki and the others about the deeper secret of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki’s revival.
It wasn’t that this secret couldn’t be told, but Shin found it annoying. If he continued to explain, it would probably take a whole day.
“So it’s related to Madara Uchiha…”
Nawaki and Hiashi Hyūga were both in a daze, clearly shocked by the information they received from Shin.
“Alright, I’ve explained it clearly. You shouldn’t have any other questions, right?” Shin took a sip of the tea Konan poured for him and said.
“I do have questions, but looking at you, you probably won’t answer them anyway,” Nawaki said, shaking his head at Shin.
“But Shin, are you really going to participate in this?” Nawaki asked the final, crucial question—the one he most wanted to know.
“Relax. The world won’t be destroyed—” Shin waved his hand at Nawaki.
Although Shin didn’t directly answer Nawaki’s question, Nawaki understood Shin’s answer from his words and felt relieved.
“In that case, I should leave too. I still need to go back to Konoha and prepare.”
Nawaki immediately stood up and ran outside, as if being chased by some scary entity.
“Is it really necessary?” Shin was a bit speechless. Did Nawaki really need to be this scared?
He had already told Tsunade not to pester Nawaki about settling down.
———
After Nawaki left, Shin looked at Hiashi Hyūga.
“Nawaki’s gone. Why are you still here? Do you want to stay for dinner?” Shin unceremoniously asked Hiashi to leave.
Hearing this, Hiashi Hyūga’s face darkened. “I want to see my two daughters…”
“You want to see Hinata and Hanabi? That’s not a problem. But whether they want to see you is another matter.” Shin shook his head.
Hinata was fine, but Hanabi held considerable resentment towards Hiashi Hyūga, because Hiashi had remarried shortly after their mother’s death.
Hanabi’s resentment was immense. She hadn’t visited Hiashi Hyūga in years, precisely because of this.
Hiashi Hyūga likely knew this too.
“Sigh, forget it…”
Hiashi Hyūga sighed. A meeting would probably lead to an argument, so it was better not to meet.
Hiashi Hyūga also left. He had to prepare for the upcoming Fourth Shinobi World War.
The information he received from Shin made him take it seriously.
Shin had told them that the Akatsuki wasn’t just a handful of members. They had a hundred thousand White Zetsu.
