On the moon's surface.
Shishou opened the Tenseigan on his forehead, meticulously studying the Yin-Yang Chakra Orb given to him by Hagoromo Otsutsuki.
His primary focus was to understand how Hagoromo created this orb.
The thought of an item that could directly elevate someone to the Six Paths level seemed unbelievable to Shishou.
Although in the original series, Naruto and Sasuke's power significantly decreased after using up the Six Paths power, they still retained Six Paths-level abilities, allowing them to manipulate the Truth-Seeking Balls.
This aspect particularly intrigued Shishou.
If he could master this method, he could potentially elevate the women around him to the Six Paths level in batches. When the Otsutsuki clan arrived in the ninja world, they would face a formidable united front.
However, despite his efforts, Shishou couldn't decipher the secrets behind it.
With no other options, he reached out to Hagoromo Otsutsuki again.
But Hagoromo's response was that his Yin-Yang Chakra Orb could only awaken the potential of his sons' reincarnations; it was impossible for others.
In other words, the Yin-Yang Chakra Orb merely unlocked the latent potential in the reincarnations of his sons.
Thus, for Shishou, the Chakra Orb could only enhance his chakra reserves and mastery of Yin-Yang Release techniques.
Upon receiving this information, Shishou sighed.
Nonetheless, he didn't give up and decided to continue researching in this direction.
After absorbing most of the Chakra Orb given by Hagoromo, Shishou felt his chakra reserves increase significantly, and his understanding of Yin-Yang Release deepened.
Leaving a small portion of the Yin-Yang power aside, Shishou vanished from his spot.
...
In Fire Source Residence.
Shishou gathered Mikoto, Kushina, and Rimei Hyuga in the living room to discuss the Genesis Space.
"Shishou, you said you've mastered a different dimension with senjutsu energy several times that of Ryuchi Cave?" Mikoto Uchiha looked at him in shock after hearing his explanation.
A senjutsu energy multiple times that of Ryuchi Cave meant their training efficiency would increase manifold.
Thinking about it, Mikoto, whose talent for senjutsu was not very high, felt tempted.
Shishou had already become a figure like the Six Paths and was pursuing immortality.
Naturally, she also wanted to be by his side for as long as possible, and training in senjutsu seemed the only way.
Moreover, with Itachi dead and Sasuke having awakened his eyes and grown up, she had no other ties in the ninja world.
Shishou sipped his tea and nodded, "That's right. Katsuyu went there once and refused to come back. She's already started training there."
Hearing that Katsuyu, who loved Shikkotsu Forest, refused to return, Kushina and Rimei exchanged surprised glances.
For Katsuyu to refuse to leave, the senjutsu energy must indeed be incredibly rich.
Rimei Hyuga asked, "Will we be able to come back?"
She still worried about Hinata and Hanabi, which made her hesitant.
Kushina also had similar concerns, unable to let go of Naruto just yet.
Shishou reassured them, "If you want to come back, I can bring you back anytime. You don't need to worry about that."
"Moreover, I will also look after Naruto and the others, or I can even take them to Ryuchi Cave to train in senjutsu under the guise of apprenticeship."
Hearing this, both Rimei and Kushina felt relieved. With Shishou's assurance, they could let go of their worries.
With their concerns addressed, they also felt inclined to go to the Genesis Space. The chance for immortality was too precious to pass up.
After some discussion among themselves, Shishou put down his tea and asked, "So, have you made your decisions?"
"Yes, I want to go," Anko said excitedly, raising her hand.
Her senjutsu training had just reached a proficient level, and she was full of motivation.
Shishou nodded, "Alright, you're in."
Hyuga Natsu spoke up, "I want to go too."
Although her strength had reached the Kage level with Shishou's help, she still felt the need to further improve herself in Fire Source Residence.
Shishou agreed, "Alright."
With Anko and Hyuga Natsu taking the lead, Mikoto, Kushina, and Rimei also decided to go to Genesis Space.
Since Shishou assured them they could return anytime, they considered it a rigorous training journey.
Seeing that everyone was ready to go, Shishou stood up.
"In that case, prepare yourselves. Bring all the clothes you need and write down anything you need me to take care of. I'll go notify Tsunade, Pakura, and the others."
Hearing this, the women quickly stood up and went to pack their belongings.
Shishou, meanwhile, vanished from the spot and headed to the Rain Village, where Konan used the Hologram Technique to gather everyone scattered across the ninja world.
As images of various people appeared before him, Shishou explained his purpose.
"I want to go," Pakura was the first to respond after hearing Shishou's description.
As someone who valued training the most, she couldn't miss this opportunity to strengthen herself.
Moreover, the ninja world was now at peace thanks to Shishou, and the economy of the Sand Village was flourishing. She no longer wanted to spend time on the responsibilities of being Kazekage, preferring to focus on her growth.
With Pakura leading, the others quickly decided to go after some thought.
Although the ninja world was at peace, Shishou had said that in ten years or so, many Six Paths-level Otsutsuki would arrive. They wanted to be ready to support Shishou when the time came.
Additionally, they all aspired to live as long as Katsuyu if possible, or even achieve immortality.
Given that Shishou had placed the opportunity before them, they couldn't refuse.
The pursuit of immortality was not a chance everyone got, so they naturally cherished it.
Seeing that everyone intended to go, Shishou told them to prepare and hand over their duties.
In a month, he would open the space-time passage and send them all to Genesis Space.
After dissolving the meeting, Shishou spent a few days with Konan before returning to Konoha to continue teaching Sakura, Fu, and Kurotsuchi, returning to a normal life.
During this month, under Shishou's guidance, Fu and Kurotsuchi's affection for him grew significantly, increasing Sakura's sense of urgency.
