"Don't move."
Grabbing her chubby arm, Kyosuke could clearly feel the little one's tension.
"Grandpa, I... I want to go out and play!" Uchiha Kaoru said, preparing to slip away.
Little Momo had said that she couldn't let outsiders know about his existence, otherwise she would lose this friend.
The Karma is Reversal; even if members of the Ōtsutsuki appear, they cannot interfere with the transformation process of the Vessel.
Momoshiki was worried that if the Earthlings knew he was still alive, they might kill the little girl as well.
Of course, he wasn't worried about the little girl; he was afraid he would die along with her.
For the sake of his own life, Momoshiki could only try his best to coax the little girl, and judging from the results, it was indeed very good.
Even his beloved grandfather, Uchiha Kaoru, had no intention of betraying his friends.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free from her grandfather's grasp.
Oh dear, this is forcing me... The chubby boy's mouth twitched, his eyes began to well up with tears, and a terrifying noise was about to burst from his throat.
Left with no other choice, Kyosuke had to let her leave, since this Sun Wukong couldn't possibly escape his grasp anyway.
That night, the father and son were drinking when Kyosuke told his son about his granddaughter's condition.
This afternoon, he secretly watched from the sidelines using his Dojutsu.
I saw Momoshiki in person, and I also saw how the little guy manipulated his opponent.
Finally relieved, he decided to tell his son about the situation and see how Yuto planned to handle it.
"Kill it." Upon hearing that something unclean had attached itself to his daughter, Yuto's eyes turned cold, and his turbulent Chakra nearly caused the roof to collapse.
"Hey, where did you learn that murderous way of speaking from?!" Kyosuke was a little dumbfounded.
She herself has always been a master strategist, always in control of the overall situation behind every action. How could she have given birth to such a bloodthirsty son?
In a daze, the image of that arrogant figure who looked down upon the world appeared in his mind.
The way he talks about killing and destroying all the time is exactly the same as the Dance King's way of doing things.
"I told this kid not to follow suit, and now look what's happened, he's become the second Madara Uchiha." He sighed silently, suddenly missing his old friend.
Once this matter is settled, I'll go and pay them a visit.
Once his son had calmed down, Kyosuke slowly spoke, "Killing him isn't necessarily a bad thing, but there's a better way to handle this."
"First, I believe Momoshiki cannot take the lead; at least for now, he does not possess the ability to threaten Xiao Xun."
"Secondly, this person has a poor relationship with the Ōtsutsuki, and with Clone of Yayoi around, he's probably someone who can be won over."
"Thirdly, in a way, perhaps he can be Xiao Xun's talisman."
Upon hearing his father's three key points, Yuto fell completely silent.
Today he finally understood one thing: why, no matter how hard he tried, he could never surpass his father.
With such a broad perspective, most people would be no match for the father.
Perhaps Aunt Yayoi could, but unfortunately, she is far less powerful than her father.
No wonder he became the God of Shinobi.
"I'll listen to Father." Yuto nodded, but to put his mind at ease, he needed to meet the Ōtsutsuki himself.
Soon, the father and son arrived at Xiao Xun's room.
I saw the chubby little boy sitting alone on the bed, muttering to himself.
Before, Yuto would have thought his daughter was playing alone, but now he knows that Xiao Xun is very likely talking to the Ōtsutsuki.
She was initially happy to see her father and grandfather come to visit her, but she quickly realized something was wrong.
"Let him come out," Yuto said, adopting a fatherly air.
Not wanting to get a spanking, Uchiha Kaoru could only pout and silently call out to her best friend.
"Let's make this clear first, you're not allowed to bully him!"
"Yes, yes, Grandpa promises you."
"Hehe, Grandpa is definitely the best."
Beside her, Yuto watched her father coldly, never expecting that the shameless old man would take the opportunity to gain favor with his daughter.
That was a miscalculation.
At the same time, he truly realized that his daughter seemed to have taken the lead.
As for the reasons...
Staring at those tiny Rinnegan, Yuto smacked his lips, his feelings becoming somewhat complicated.
He himself hasn't even activated the final Immortal Eye yet, but his daughter has already gotten a taste of it. Judging from the situation, Xiao Xun's awakened ability should be quite effective against this type of soul entity.
Otherwise, there would be no reason for the Ōtsutsuki to indulge in the nonsense of a human girl.
With her permission, Momoshiki finally had the opportunity to show herself.
Upon hearing the reason why the two had come to him, Little Momo remained silent for a long time before finally speaking in a hoarse voice, "Do I look like someone who is in control?"
"Why is this happening?" Kyosuke, curious.
"Before answering you..." Momoshiki turned his head, his gaze falling on the Fishing Rod and Fish Basket on the table. "You took down Urashiki?"
"Yes."
"... That guy, Isshiki, probably died at your hands too."
"That's right, that's right."
"... Her ability should be a kind of 'rejection'." Momoshiki had already analyzed the reason. "As long as it goes against her personal will, she can deny it, no matter what it is."
"She doesn't want me to possess her; even if it's the Ōtsutsuki's most advanced technological achievement, she can easily throw it against the wall."
Yuto was somewhat better off, seemingly unaware of his daughter's formidable abilities.
But who is Kyosuke? He's an elite who lived through the information explosion era. How could he not understand what "I refuse" means?
Even if he hasn't witnessed it firsthand, can't he find a point of reference for comparison?
Upon hearing Momoshiki's explanation, the first person that popped into his mind was "Orihime Inoue" from the world of Shinigami.
If that's the case, and a future great war breaks out, the little guy will very likely become the strongest healer in the Shinobi World.
Kyosuke was marveling at this, while Yuto on the other side had already started laying down the rules with Momoshiki.
"Protect her for a hundred years, and I will return to you a perfect Vessel."
"No, at most thirty years."
"Hmph, you have no right to bargain."
"Damn it, young man, don't be so hot-blooded."
After much wrangling, the agreed-upon year was ultimately changed to the year 80.
It may seem like there's not much difference from a hundred years ago, but for Momoshiki now, it's a rare victory.
This shows how miserable his life was.
After finishing his business, Kyosuke suddenly interjected, "Just wondering, who killed you?"
"That person..." Recalling the god-like Susanoo, Momoshiki's tone became serious. "He was a man with spiky hair who looked incredibly arrogant."
"It's Ban." The father and son realized almost simultaneously.
Only Kyosuke seemed to realize something, and asked, "So what about him now... never mind, I'll find out for myself."
Feeling somewhat heavy-hearted, he left his room alone and went to the courtyard to drink alone in silence.
Hashirama is in such a bad mood, you can imagine that the Dance King is in no better shape.
Being able to fight to the death against Momoshiki is already an extraordinary feat.
Picking up the sake flask, Kyosuke greeted the man with the Ponytail and used his spatial abilities to arrive at the underground cave where Madara was hiding.
"I see."
Inside the cave, Number Three and Tobi stood side by side, neither of them looking too happy.
Kyosuke put down the empty sake bottle and took the glass container that Tobi handed him, which contained Madara's Rinnegan.
"Is the plan for resurrection ready?" he asked.
Upon hearing this, Tobi thought for a moment and decided to answer truthfully, "Lord Madara is preparing to use the Rinne Rebirth technique to resurrect."
Having awakened the Rinnegan, Kyosuke gained a deeper understanding of the Rinne Rebirth.
Through the abilities of the Naraka Path, a sorcerer can summon the souls of the dead back from the Pure Land, and as long as there is a suitable body, the resurrection of the deceased can be accomplished.
In the original story, Madara Uchiha's plan from the very beginning was to have Nagato use the Rinne Rebirth.
Unexpectedly, the traitor used it to save the dead of Konoha.
If it weren't for the combined help of the Dream Master and Black Zetsu, Madara probably wouldn't have had the chance to be resurrected.
This time, he indeed planned to use the old method again.
"Let's make some changes," Kyosuke said, shaking his head. "No matter who he chooses, the risk is too great. With Yayoi around, it won't be difficult to create a suitable body for him."
Kyosuke understands that Madara isn't himself, and therefore can't completely trust Yayoi.
However, with him around, he wouldn't just stand by and watch his friend sit alone in the Pure Land.
In fact, Ban in the Pure Land is not lonely at all; even the ancestors have come out to play with him.
Kyosuke was destined to never know these things.
"From now on, you'll be working with Yayoi." Seeing that Tobi remained silent, Kyosuke smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
"Hmm." Tobi still looked somewhat listless.
It tried to possess Number Two, but did not feel the urge to defecate.
With the passing of Ban, it suddenly felt despair towards the entire world.
"Destroy it," Tobi said.
On the other side, the real White Zetsu suddenly appeared from nowhere. "Kyosuke, I have some news that you might find very interesting."
Looking at the pitcher plant in front of him, he was afraid that it would just say "hello" as soon as it opened its mouth.
That's so damn incongruous.
As for the surprise it mentioned, it's obvious without even guessing that it's most likely related to Kaguya.
In fact, there weren't many threats left in the entire Shinobi World that he could take seriously.
Kaguya counts as one, the Sage of Six Paths counts as one, oh, and the Hyuga ancestor who once terrified him, he can barely be considered half a ancestor.
Apart from that, the so-called Five Great Nations Ninja Sect and their ilk are really nothing special.
If he wanted, he could wipe these beings out with a flick of his hand.
"It's Ōtsutsuki Kaguya." The surprise from White Zetsu was indeed the Rabbit Goddess.
Kyosuke didn't pay much attention at first, but now the situation is very different. Kaguya, who hasn't fully recovered, is actually not as good as she was when she fought against NaruSasu.
Even the ability to freely switch worlds is very likely not something that can be used easily.
Killing it may be difficult, but resealing it is not particularly difficult.
But when Kyosuke learned that Kaguya's first black-and-white film was about to be released, his jaw dropped to Madara's grave.
