The eting room remained quiet for a few seconds. Then, the Left Protector said: "We are entering a state of ergency. Call our mbers scattered on different planets and dinsions. We will also summon the civilizations we have conquered.
"All Clan mbers–no matter whether they are royal, noble, or commoners–will et the enemy.
"Right Protector," said the Left Protector, looking at her companion
"Don't worry, I will try to wake up Lord Shibai."
"That's good," she replied. "I will supervise the battle."
The Left Protector then looked at Ryushiki, "Try to divine a way for our clan's survival. Do whatever is necessary to succeed."
Ryushiki was shocked for a mont before realizing the aning behind these words. There are many clan mbers with Clairvoyant or Divination Type of Dojutsu. However, none were as powerful as him.
So, in the current situation, the best option is to increase his power by any ans–including breaking the clan's rules and swallowing these people. A ruthless light flashed in Ryushiki's eyes as he nodded.
However, as soon as he agreed, five people in the room suddenly tried to open a tear in space to escape. Regrettably, the Left Protector acted swiftly and waved her hand to seal them. So, 2 Divine Generals and 3 Divine Envoys were captured and handed to Ryushiki to absorb and increase his power.
"Let's go," said the Left Protector calmly and coldly.
In the endless space, Edward watched as nurous Otsutsuki mbers flew from the five planets. The majority ca from the yellow planets, which is where the Branch mbers lived.
"We have detected a massive wave of spatial-temporal energy," said Golem AD. "It is estimated the enemy is calling reinforcent. Commander, do you want to block the surrounding space?"
"No," replied Edward. "We want them all in one place. Otherwise, we will have to spend more manpower searching for them all over the universe."
"As you wish. Then, what is the next command?"
"Send in the Golem Legion to intercept the enemy."
The golem executed its order and sent a legion of 100,000 Golems: 10 of which were Peak Tier 7, 2000 were regular Tier 7, and the rest were Tier 6.
The Golem Legion slaughtered and captured countless Otsutsuki. The battle was one-sided due to one reason: information. Edward knew about Chakra and even equipped the golems with Anti-Energy Enchantnts, focusing on dealing with Chakra.
So, his legion not only had more high Tiers of individuals but also countered the Otsutsuki Clan. Of course, that was at the beginning of the battle.
"Interesting," comnted Edward as he watched the sudden change in the battle.
"They suddenly beca more powerful," said Tsunade. "What's going on?"
"They are using nature energy," explained Edward. "I did not expect the Otsutsukis to be capable of learning from other civilizations." He always these guys was too arrogant to ever learn Sage Art.
"Then, what are you going to do?" she asked
"Their increase in strength will only delay their inevitable defeat," comnted Edward. "Deploy the Fighter Pilot Legion to take out the weaker branch mbers."
Golem AD executed the order. Nurous small ships suddenly flew out of the five spaceships. These ships were small enough for two or three people but extrely fast.
These fighter jets did not have any pilots and were remotely controlled by artificial intelligence under the supervision of Golem AD. They precisely targeted the Otsutsuki Branch mbers whose strengths were lower than Tier 6.
Additionally, the Otsutsuki summoned a bunch of other civilizations they conquered and used them as cannon fodders. The fighter jets targeted these people.
Edward calmly watched as the enemy's strength drastically reduced. The fighter jets have no problem using suicidal tactics to destroy a large number of Otsutsuki mbers. After all, no one died, and the jet's destruction wasted only resources.
"Commander, I've detected a very potent divination attempt toward the Empire," suddenly said the Divination Golem.
"Oh, how powerful?"
"Seer Level."
"Seer Level," mused Edward. "There must be an Otsutsuki mber with a powerful Divination-based Dojutsu." His eyes lit up.
"I will send you on a mission," he said. "Take a few of the Shadow Golems and find the source of that divination: capture it alive and bring it back."
Edward felt such a powerful eye would be perfect for Luna. And if he can copy it, he will no longer be troubled by his lack of Divination Talent. At the very least, he won't be as embarrassed.
"As you command," said the golem before leaving. With the chaos of the current war, it is much easier to infiltrate these five planets.
"Commander, there is a warning of the highest level," said Golem AD.
"Oh, what's the situation?"
"I have detected a Chakra Energy level of Tier 8 gathering on the Royal Planet."
"Oh, is Shibai finally showing up?"
"Most likely not. The energy frequency is similar to a weapon," explained Golem AD. When a Tier 8 Mage uses a powerful attack, their energy frequency differs from a Tier 8 Weapon; the weapon lacks a certain vitality or life unique to flesh and blood lifeforms or any living creature.
"The Otsutsuki Clan also has many powerful Chakra Tools, so it should be one of them," comnted Edward. "Raise our highest level of shield. I don't want to lose any of these five ships." Losing any of these ships was too expensive and not worth losing to a re Otsutsuki Clan.
"That's the issue," explained Golem AD. "According to my calculations, our shield cannot withstand an attack of this magnitude."
Edward pondered for a mont. Tier 8 ans the ability to destroy a Star System. However, soone who can destroy 1 star system and one who can destroy 100 star systems are still Tier 8, but one is overwhelmingly more powerful than the other.
"Don't worry: I will protect the ship."
And that's exactly what Edward did. A powerful energy light suddenly ca from the Royal Planet with the intention of annihilating the five ships. So, he waved his hand to create a powerful shield to protect his investnts.
"Fail," said the Left Protector as she watched the aftermath of her attempt. "So, there is really soone as powerful as Lord Shibai leading this war? Who is it?"
No matter how she thought, she could not figure out who it was. Lord Shibai had already killed anyone on the sa level as him in this universe. And the Clan would eliminate anyone with enough potential to reach such a level, resulting in them having too many enemies.
So, Left Protector could not discover who was behind this attack since there were too many possibilities.
"Is this the power of Shinjutsus?" muttered Edward. "Why does it feel weird and familiar?" From what he knew from Boruto, Lord Shibai used Shinjutsus, which is the highest form of Jutsus in the universe. The Ninjutsus the Ninja used is most likely an imitation of Shinjutsu.
'Things are getting interesting,' he thought.
"Commander, I have detected the enemy stopped emanating spatial energy," said Golem AD.
"So, they've called back all their mbers?" concluded Edward. "Excellent. Execute the Bloodline Tactic."
"As you command."
All the golem legions suddenly received orders to execute the Bloodline Tactic. So, they began to attack the Otsutsuki Clan with a strange red fog. And everywhere the fog touched, an Otsutsuki mber would suddenly pass out. It did not matter whether they were Divine Generals, Divine Envoys, or regular branch mbers: they suffered the sa fate.
And the only reason the Left and Right Protectors did not suffer was that they were not part of the battlefield.
"What's going on?" asked Tsunade, confused like all the citizens watching this battle back in the Ninja Planet.
"This is how advanced technological civilizations fight," explained Edward. "We find the weakness of the enemy and develop ways to deal with them.
"The Otsutsuki Clan evolves by absorbing nurous genetic information and breaking the limit of their bloodline. However, the information is too much and chaotic, affecting their mind.
"The fog was created to affect the chaos in their genes, thus overloading their mind and soul."
Edward sighed. Once the weakness of a civilization is discovered, it's easy to be targeted by a much more powerful civilization. For example, one of the main weaknesses of the Arcane Civilization is the heart that holds their mana. If soone could target it, then all arcanists would lose power.
Luckily, he fixed that weakness with the Arcane Heart learned from Devil Heart and the ability to hold mana in the Soul Dinsion.
This is also why Edward insisted the Empire use and develop different types of energy; he did not want so higher civilization to find a way to render mana useless, thus crumbling the Arcane Civilization.
Or the reason he wanted Arcanists to have strong bodies; he did not want any easily exploited weakness.
"That's it?" asked Tsunade as she watched the mighty Otsutsuki clan fall like children fighting an adult. "The enemy is defeated?"
"No: there is still one last battle," replied Edward, who sensed a powerful being waking up.
