Three months later, on the moon, Reincarnation Chamber.
While eating the grapes in his bowl, Kyosuke listened quietly to his subordinates' report.
"The remnants of the Moon Clan have all been exterminated."
"More than 320 elderly, women, and children were captured, along with countless resources and materials."
"The tribespeople are currently carrying out cleanups in various locations, and we believe more detailed results will be available soon."
In the final defensive battle of the Land of Rain, Kyosuke Legion suffered "heavy casualties," almost to the point of being wiped out entirely.
In fact, his subordinates had only faked their deaths. Apart from those who had settled down and started families, the rest of them all went to the moon to develop a new base.
The area is rich in resources, with abundant vegetation and water, and even suitable for land reclamation and livestock raising.
No matter how things develop in the future, the moon will always be Kyosuke's most important rear base.
To this end, he spared no effort in creating a Space–Time Barrier that allowed people to travel back and forth.
Kyosuke even taught his two subordinates the Flying Thunder God Technique without reservation, hoping that they could shoulder the responsibility of building Moon Base while he was away.
From this day forward, his loyal subordinates will gradually transfer over. Izumi will be in charge of this matter, while Maya will remain in the clan to assist him.
Spitting out the grape skins from his mouth, Kyosuke pondered how to deal with the women and children.
"My lord, let's just kill them all to eliminate any future trouble." Maya made a throat-slitting gesture.
"Come on, that's over three hundred people." Kyosuke rolled his eyes and said irritably, "How can you be so cruel?"
Uchiha Maya: "... Then what do you suggest we do?"
"Let me think about it." Kyosuke lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
The bloodline of the Lunar Ōtsutsuki is rich, making it an excellent experimental material.
And their eyes, they should be able to merge into a huge energy source, we can't let them go to waste.
"These people cannot be killed; the weak and elderly should be given to Yayoi as test subjects."
"As for the others, all those who are thirty years of age or older should have their eyes removed and preserved; I may find them very useful in the future."
"That's the general idea for now. You can handle the rest as you see fit."
"... Yes, sir." Maya blinked, momentarily confused about the exact definition of the word "cruel."
"That's it!" Kyosuke suddenly had a flash of inspiration, a brilliant idea popping into his mind. "In the future, we should encourage our clansmen to intermarry with the Moon Clan. They will surely produce outstanding offspring."
The Uchiha represents Hagoromo's power, while the Moon natives represent the power of his younger brother, Hamura.
Combining the two might produce a ninja with considerable talent.
Who knows, maybe they can even have a genius like Naruto and Hinata, who possesses the "Jōgan).
"If there's an opportunity in the future, we can try to transfer some members from the Uzumaki and Hyuga to contribute to the growth of the Uchiha."
With a slight smile, Kyosuke rose and left the Reincarnation Chamber.
After three months of hard work, the construction on the moon is now gradually getting on track.
He probably doesn't need to worry about the rest of the work; the only remaining issue is to investigate any potential risks.
For example, is Ōtsutsuki Hamura still alive?
For example, he could try visiting goddesses from mythology.
"It's really exciting to think about."
The Moon Clan has carried a special mission since ancient times.
Behind the Moon Palace stands a special Altar, where only the Clan Leader of each generation are qualified to listen to the teachings of their ancestors.
Needless to say, it's obvious there's something fishy going on there.
With nothing else to do, Kyosuke decided to go and investigate on his own.
Soon, he arrived at the clean and tidy Altar of the Moon Clan.
After carefully reading the inscription, he roughly understood something.
"As expected, it's a brief biography of Kaguya's life." Kyosuke shook his head and curiously lit the bonfire on the Altar.
The next second, green flames rose up, and there seemed to be figures moving around inside.
"This is..." Kyosuke's eyes widened slightly. How could he not recognize the distinctive appearance of the Ōtsutsuki?
The object appearing inside the campfire was a phantom of Ōtsutsuki Hamura, the ancestor of the moon.
"My name is Ōtsutsuki Hamura, and I am Kaguya's second son..."
Over the next period of time, the ancestor began to recount the "secrets" that Kyosuke already knew.
"... That's roughly how it is." The phantom finally finished its long explanation.
At this point in the process, he thought the phantom was about to dissipate.
Having been delayed at the entrance for so long, Kyosuke was eager to meet Ōtsutsuki Kaguya.
It's unknown whether the seal of Chibaku Tensei will strip her of her consciousness.
If we could wake her up, maybe the two of us could have a chat.
Just as Kyosuke was about to walk around the Altar, he suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
Why hasn't Hamura's phantom image dissipated yet?
Moreover, that look in his eyes seemed to have become more lively than his initial stiffness.
"No way..." Kyosuke swallowed hard, thinking to himself that he was really something else.
How did a perfectly good hiking and outing turn into such a mess?
What kind of mess is this?!
Not knowing what to do, he could only watch helplessly as the illusory figure of Hamura gradually regained his senses.
Kyosuke could sense that it was not Hamura's true form, but rather a projection of some kind of consciousness.
As for the reason for his awakening, it is most likely due to his status as a non- Ōtsutsuki member.
I knew it! How could the entrance to the seal not be secured? It turns out that the Sage of Six Paths' brother left behind a lingering remnant of his spirit here.
Since we're already here, let's see what they have to say.
"I am Ōtsutsuki Hamura, intruder. State your name." The phantom was now filled with majesty.
"Um... cough, my name is Uchiha Kyosuke." Kyosuke wanted to act serious, but the difference in their auras was too great.
Sigh, a 12-year-old child is so vulnerable.
The name Uchiha seemed to have triggered memories in the phantom.
He did go to the moon, but that didn't mean he severed ties with his older brother.
With Ōtsutsuki Hamura's abilities, traveling between the two Planet was not difficult, so he had met his brother's son Indra.
They naturally learned that the Uchiha were descendants of Indra.
Speaking of which, the destruction of the Ninja Sect seems to be...
The phantom sighed inexplicably, and upon learning that the visitor was a descendant of Indra, it seemed to lower its guard.
Seeing this, Kyosuke cautiously asked, "I know who you are, but you are now..."
He wanted to ask, "Are you dead or not? Don't let your true form accidentally explode out of the house."
"I am already dead." The phantom suddenly turned its head and looked at the Cave behind it. "But I can actually come back to life at any time if needed."
What's the meaning?!
Kyosuke was puzzled, finding Hamura's words somewhat difficult to understand.
After careful consideration, he roughly understood what the other party meant.
In other words, if you sense any signs that Ōtsutsuki Kaguya is about to be unsealed, you can revive her at any time and take her down?
Is it really that brutal?!
