Chapter 18: Chapter 18: A New World
With these overwhelming powers, Tetsuya's vision for the shinobi world became clearer. The existing power structures—the Five Kage, the Tailed Beasts, and the Akatsuki—were simply stepping stones for his greater purpose. He intended to reshape the world into a paradise under his rule, where the strong would not only survive, but thrive under his divine guidance.
He began a campaign of domination, sending his new army—now enhanced with his Wood Release, Tenseigan, and Shikotsumyaku abilities—across the continent, toppling villages and conquering nations. The Akatsuki grew in strength as his clans expanded, with Ueki, Chinook, and even rogue Uchiha joining his growing empire.
As Tetsuya stood at the apex of his power, staring out at the world he was about to conquer, he realized that he had become not just a warrior, but a god. His ambition to reshape the world had led him to the pinnacle of strength, and nothing would stop him now. The world of shinobi would kneel before him, or it would be destroyed.
