Otsutsuki Kaguya's lips curled slightly upward, revealing a faint smile, and a hint of appreciation was evident in her deep eyes.
It seems like it's been a long time since I've encountered someone who can so fiercely challenge me.
Even if you combined the talents of Hamura and Hagoromo, you absolutely could not reach this level.
Those two rebellious sons, relying on his love and reluctance to part with them, actually joined forces to seal him away.
If it weren't for her deep reluctance to kill them, how could Otsutsuki Kaguya have given them the chance to get close?
At this moment, Uchiha Kō stood steadily in space, his eyes like cold stars, staring coldly at Otsutsuki Kaguya without the slightest fear.
Black Zetsu, standing to the side, wore a worried expression.
Others may not know, but Black Zetsu knows very well that Uchiha Kō is very good at hiding his strength.
The fact that he can remain so calm and composed in the face of his mother's fierce attack clearly indicates that he must possess some powerful trump card.
You should know that Uchiha Kō's trump cards are absolutely not to be underestimated!
The next moment, Otsutsuki Kaguya waved her hand lightly, and space seemed to be torn apart, with a huge crack appearing.
Her figure vanished into the rift like a ghost, and then the spatial rift closed as if it had never existed.
Uchiha Kō's pupils constricted sharply, a hint of astonishment flashing in his eyes. Izumi Hirasaka! Instantly, he activated his Soul Perception Technique to its maximum, and pushed his Sage Mode Golden Dragon Armor to its limit.
In the original story, this move was incredibly unpredictable and caused Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto considerable trouble, resulting in them being thoroughly defeated for a period of time.
I never thought it would be my turn!
The next moment, a portal opened above his head, followed by countless fist shadows blasting out. Uchiha Kō's face turned ashen. "Night Guy!"
Uchiha Kō's leg bones made a cracking sound, but that wasn't enough to kill him! After kicking, he immediately used Resurrection to restore his leg bones.
Although the Eight Inner Gates has no side effects, Night Guy's move will still severely injure his leg, though not fatally.
With a kick, blood energy transformed into a dragon, rushing towards Otsutsuki Kaguya. Otsutsuki Kaguya Otsutsuki's pupils shrank; she sensed a threat from this attack.
So she stopped attacking and merged back into Yomotsu Hirasaka. Who knew that this move would open a spacetime rift, and a dragon would rush after Otsutsuki Kaguya's head.
Otsutsuki Kaguya's eyes turned cold. She unleashed five consecutive Yomotsu Hirasaka, causing the dragon to scatter wildly until it exhausted its Chakra, at which point she shattered it with a single palm strike.
Then, Otsutsuki Kaguya appeared, her eyes filled with apprehension as she looked at Uchiha Kō. At this moment, Uchiha Kō's Chakra, stamina, and leg bones had all returned to their peak condition.
The two stood facing each other in silence. Finally Otsutsuki Kaguya sighed, "That's enough, that's enough. I'm tired."
Continuing to fight like this isn't a solution. She was still very grateful to Uchiha Kō. Putting aside the fact that he was her bloodline descendant, the fact that he dared to defy the world and release her was enough for her to admire him.
Furthermore, the more loyal Uchiha Kō was to love, the more she wanted to conquer Uchiha Kō, because in her eyes, Uchiha Kō was simply the perfect husband.
She's capable, powerful, and loyal. Since that girl named Tsunade has already gotten there first, I'll just wait. After all, who can predict the future?
If Isshiki day Tsunade is killed by Isshiki or some other enemy, wouldn't my opportunity come?
As far as she knew, Isshiki was ugly and petty, and would definitely not tolerate Uchiha Kō's happiness!
Therefore, she only needed to wait for the right opportunity. As for her bloodline and descendants? She could clearly sense that there was not a trace of her blood in this Uchiha Kō.
It's possible that because the name Uchiha is associated with Indra, he believed himself to be a descendant of Kaguya.
"Then may I ask, Kaguya, will you grant my request to intervene at the crucial moment and join forces to kill Ōtsutsuki Isshiki?" Uchiha Kō asked solemnly.
Otsutsuki Kaguya blinked. "Sure, I don't like that ugly monster either!"
Thus, Uchiha Kō and Otsutsuki Kaguya reached a preliminary consensus, with Uchiha Kō even welcoming Otsutsuki to visit Konoha.
Otsutsuki Kaguya refused. She felt disgusted by the Ninja World, and Ninja World, it was full of Hagoromo's descendants, which annoyed her.
In the end Otsutsuki Kaguya chose to stay on the moon, which excited Otsutsuki Toneri. The moon had been empty for so long, and he was terribly lonely.
Now that the ancestor has arrived, he is overjoyed to be able to chat with him occasionally!
Moreover, I heard that the ancestor has a long lifespan, so I shouldn't be lonely before I die!
Otsutsuki Kaguya was initially somewhat bothered by Otsutsuki Toneri's identity, but as time went by, she discovered that Otsutsuki Toneri was a person who valued relationships extremely much!
She saw the shadow of Hamura Otsutsuki in him. Actually, Otsutsuki Hagoromo Hamura Otsutsuki was very well-behaved. She didn't know what methods Hamura Otsutsuki used to corrupt him.
It attacked me, and after sealing me away, it stayed with me on the moon.
To ensure his ancestor ate well, Otsutsuki Toneri even went to the Ninja World to buy a lot of food from Konoha, just so he could talk to his ancestor more often.
After sensing Otsutsuki Toneri's sincerity, Otsutsuki Kaguya sighed and said, "Toneri, come here."
Upon hearing this, Otsutsuki Toneri walked over to Otsutsuki Kaguya with a smile.
Then Otsutsuki Kaguya cut open her own flesh, and her blood flowed into Otsutsuki Toneri's eye sockets.
Although Otsutsuki Toneri did not know why the progenitor did this, he believed that the progenitor must have done it for his own good.
Soon after, he felt an itch around his eyes, and then a pair of Byakugan appeared in his eyes.
Otsutsuki Kaguya healed her wound and said, "Since you are my descendant and acknowledge me as your ancestor, the ancestor will not stand idly by and watch you be blind."
After saying that, Otsutsuki Kaguya continued eating the food from Konoha. It has to be said, the food from Konoha was simply delicious; compared to her era, it was divine!
Otsutsuki Toneri was stunned. He slowly opened his eyes, and this time it was no longer a black and white world; his world was now full of color!
"Ancestor... I..." Otsutsuki Toneri's eyes were filled with tears. Before, no matter how much pain he was in, he would not have been able to cry. At this moment, he was somewhat excited and touched his cheek.
Feeling the clear, warm liquid, he was filled with gratitude for Otsutsuki Kaguya.
Otsutsuki Kaguya smiled. "Toneri, alright, stop crying. You're the only living heir of Hamura, after all. You're not allowed to cry."
Otsutsuki Kaguya very satisfied with Otsutsuki Toneri's performance, and at the same time, his crying moved her to pity.
This is just like his son, Hamura Otsutsuki. When Hamura Otsutsuki was little, he often cried, and he had to hold him and coax him to sleep.
Although she was betrayed by her man, she did not transfer her resentment to her sons. On the contrary, she was a person who valued family ties the most.
Perhaps she harbored some resentment because her sons had sealed her away, but it didn't rise to the level of hatred. What she hated was that Old Toad from Mount Myoboku who spread falsehoods and misled the masses.
What I hate is that Hagoromo, that rebellious son, is willing to sever ties with his family for the sake of the Ninja World.
She had always regarded Hagoromo as her most obedient child.
He only made a mistake temporarily, and in order to atone for his sins, he separated from his elder brother and has been living on the moon ever since. On every festival, he would offer incense and wine to her.
Although she couldn't drink it, she kept that kindness in her heart.
"From now on, you Toneri cultivate diligently on this moon. As for women, the Ancestor will capture a few for you."
Otsutsuki Toneri nodded obediently, and from then on, Otsutsuki Kaguya and Otsutsuki Toneri temporarily resided on the moon.
After a busy day, Uchiha Kō returned home, climbed straight into bed, and fell asleep.
He had used up too much of his eye power and Chakra today, and all he wanted to do was catch up on sleep.
Tsunade was still asleep when Uchiha Kō pulled Tsunade into his arms, and the two fell into a deep sleep.
The next day
Fire Temple
After a night of struggle for control of his body, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki lost, and Jigen regained full control of his body. However, Jigen knew...
Perhaps in less than a year, his soul will be completely devoured by Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, thus becoming the vessel for Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's resurrection.
He was heartbroken, but he had no choice but to accept this fate, after all, he had lived for nearly a thousand years using the power of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.
Over these millennia, he enjoyed benefits and power that he would never have been able to experience in his entire life.
He should have been satisfied and willingly surrendered his body, but that's how people are; once they've enjoyed something they couldn't have before, they become greedy.
Just like Jigen today, he is unwilling to give up his body, unwilling to hand over all his current assets to Ōtsutsuki Isshiki. He is also a human being!
He slowly said, "Isshiki, and I've won again."
At this moment, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki glanced at Jigen's soul from within his body, a mocking look in his eyes.
If it were a thousand years ago, when he was weak, he might have been wary of Jigen, but now he has recovered nearly 70% of his strength.
His wedge is also nearly 80% unlocked. Once the wedge is fully unlocked, no matter how strong Jigen's soul power or how firm his willpower is, he will be able to overcome any obstacle.
His soul will also become his spiritual nourishment, further enhancing his spiritual power.
Who knows, maybe I'll awaken a new skill someday.
Poor Jigen thought he had won, but little did he know that he had lost completely.
Each of his struggles only allowed Ōtsutsuki Isshiki to devour his soul and gain even greater benefits.
