What a Sad Story! / Kaguya Longs for Her Child

He began replacing the "core" of the technique.

The next moment, Kaguya Otsutsuki was completely freed from her restraints and immediately disappeared from his sight.

However, due to the replacement of the core, the moon stabilized again, and the previously torn rock layers closed up again.

Having done all that, Hagoromo Otsutsuki turned his gaze back to Otsutsuki Toneri in front of him.

At this moment, Otsutsuki Toneri had turned around. Although he couldn't see, the immense Chakra behind him shocked him, and he was gaping in shock.

They're quite cute.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki felt guilty towards his younger brother Hamura Otsutsuki, and this child rekindled his longing for his brother.

Unlike him, who survived thanks to the Pure Land, Hamura Otsutsuki, whose strength was similar to his before becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, was truly dead.

"Who are you?" Otsutsuki Toneri asked, sensing the terrifying Chakra calming down.

With that Chakra, killing him would be incredibly easy.

But the other side stabilized the moon.

Otsutsuki Toneri suddenly had a bold idea, which made him a little excited.

Are you an elder?

Otsutsuki Toneri was raised by an elder, but this upbringing was limited to instilling in him the dream of tsutsuki, mastering all the equipment left behind by the Ōtsutsuki Clan, and enabling him to take care of himself. That elder had passed away long ago, but before he did, he went through some formalities with him and left behind some words such as "Grandpa, I'm just taking a nap, I'll always be watching over you."

Otsutsuki Toneri has always been lacking in love; otherwise, he wouldn't have done something like running to the surface to find a wife in the original timeline.

"I'm sorry, child, I'm not an elder." Looking at Hagoromo Otsutsuki Toneri's tightly closed eyes, Otsutsuki Hagoromo felt that since he was already here, he might as well give him a test.

He realized that the reincarnations of Ashura and Indra's Chakra in this generation seemed to be maturing too late. Even though their mother had escaped, the two children hadn't grown up. This generation was probably doomed.

Now, he desperately needs a backup plan.

Chapter Forty-Nine: What a sad story!

White mist filled the Leaf Great Forest.

During his first playthrough, Uchiha Shingen was quite puzzled as to why there was mist in his Summoning Technique.

If the reason given was to conceal the spirit medium in order to deceive the opponent, that doesn't quite make sense.

Because the range and force of the fog are directly proportional to the strength of the spirit being summoned.

Besides, most of these ninjas were Genin. They knew that such an attack on the battlefield was not a good move. Survival was the priority, Genin immediately set up Explosive Tag Kunai.

So he eventually stopped thinking about it.

So what if there's fog? Jonin generally give you some leeway at this time and wait for you to emerge from the fog; it's an unspoken rule in the industry.

However, to be fair, the mist generated by the summoning of Kaguya- Kaguya from the Outer Path is the most exaggerated among all of Uchiha Shingen attempts across two playthroughs.

There were so many of them!

However, it has finally been pulled out.

Uchiha Shingen, standing amidst the mist, was filled with emotion.

He was still in the state of having his Cursed Seal activated, so what he could see, the Tailed Beasts could also see.

They had a great time exchanging red envelopes earlier, and now that they were all gone, the four Tailed Beasts were also very curious about what Uchiha Shingen was going to pull out.

Kurama was particularly curious, as the amount of mist produced was even greater than when Uchiha Madara pulled it.

After a while, the fog gradually dissipated, and the Tailed Beasts saw the appearance of the summoned creature.

How can it be a person?

The Matatabi felt a sense of familiarity; wasn't that the Great Demon King? But something seemed different.

At this moment, standing in front of Uchiha Shingen was none other than Kaguya Otsutsuki.

She was indeed different from the Matatabi I had seen before, and the most striking feature was undoubtedly the large eye on her forehead.

It was an eye that combined the features of Rinnegan and the Sharingan. It was entirely red, with both the ripples of the Rinnegan and the Tomoe, the most representative feature of the Sharingan. There were three tomoe in each layer of ripples, for a total of nine Tomoe.

This is Kaguya Otsutsuki's unique Dōjutsu. In the original timeline, it has a special name: Rinne Sharingan of Uchiha Shingen, Uchiha Madara, and even Hagoromo Otsutsuki. It is a higher stage of the Rinnegan.

In the original timeline, only when Uchiha Sasuke concentrated all his ocular power on his other eye in order to preserve one of the Mangekyou Mangekyō Sharingan taken from Uchiha Itachi was the Rinne Sharingan with six Tomoe generated.

Its power is also outstanding; the Genjutsu Rinnegan it uses can lock onto Tailed Beasts with a single glance. However, compared to Kaguya Otsutsuki, it's insignificant and not even in the same league.

Uchiha Shingen also knew the Genjutsu: Rinnegan. The only difference was that when he used the Sharingan, it was Genjutsu: Sharingan, and when he used the Rinnegan, it became Genjutsu: Rinnegan.

Kaguya Otsutsuki stood there for a long while before opening her Byakugan.

This time, she truly returned to Earth in her original form, no longer bound by the Six Paths: Chibaku Tensei.

However, she didn't seem to be in a particularly good mood, which was different from what Uchiha Shingen had expected.

I'm not asking for anything like a backflip, but at least there should be a laugh, right?

"Hagoromo!" Kaguya Otsutsuki murmured softly.

The voice wasn't loud, but it contained a wealth of emotions.

She discovered the Hagoromo at the very last moment before she escaped.

For a moment, she really had the urge to just go and cook a whole bunch of bamboo shoots and pork, no matter what.

What a rebellious son!

She was certain that this rebellious son's decision to let go at the last moment was definitely not because he remembered how good she was as his mother.

He definitely wasn't holding back anything good.

"Kaguya, did you see the Sage of Six Paths?" Uchiha Shingen asked.

He, who always had his ears open, did not miss Kaguya Otsutsuki's soft whisper.

"Yes, I saw him." Kaguya Otsutsuki nodded. She temporarily gave up simulating scenarios like "fighting is a sign of affection" and "motherly love and filial piety" in her mind. Right now, Uchiha Shingen was more important to her.

Whether it's worthwhile for her to abandon the plan to continue producing White Zetsu depends on Uchiha Shingen's actions going forward.

If it's available, then not getting White Zetsu is acceptable.

Besides, she produced so many White Zetsu in the first place, she didn't lose the backups.

True gold fears no fire; let's see what it's made of and what it's worth.

The truth will be revealed once someone from the same family reappears.

If Uchiha Shingen can help her fight against the main clan and seize the Ten-Tails, then her next move will be to find a way to make Uchiha Shingen become Ōtsutsuki Clan.

"I saw more than just Hagoromo Otsutsuki," Kaguya Otsutsuki said. "On that planet, there are also descendants of Hamura Otsutsuki, who will likely become enemies."

That child possesses the purest Ōtsutsuki Clan bloodline in this era, and will definitely be turned into a tool by the rebellious son.

However, it is like being an enemy of oneself.

Kaguya Otsutsuki didn't really care about that, but she was furious that Hagoromo Otsutsuki was constantly watching her and causing trouble.

She thought she could take it all in stride, but the moment she saw Hagoromo Otsutsuki, she understood.

She couldn't get over this mental hurdle without giving this unfilial son a good beating.

"A descendant of the Ōtsutsuki Clan..." Uchiha Shingen stroked his chin.

He had always assumed that Hagoromo Otsutsuki's target would be Sasuke and Naruto, and hadn't really thought about the moon.

Ōtsutsuki Clan, in terms of purity, the survivors on the moon are definitely purer.

In this way, it might be even more adaptable to the external attachments of Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

It's not that Uchiha Shingen looked down on Naruto and Sasuke; Ashura and Indra's Chakra are certainly good stuff, but the blood of the Ōtsutsuki Clan might not be so bad.

While cheats are certainly useful, users are also very important.

He remembered Black Zetsu telling him that the Chakra reincarnations of Ashura and Indra were not necessarily powerful. Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara were the most exaggerated reincarnations he had ever seen, and they could not be used to reflect the normal level of reincarnations.

This thing only guarantees that as long as the owner doesn't die, they can always reach the Jonin level.

Uchiha Shingen began to try his best to recall the fragmented information from the Zero Cycle, but unfortunately, the Lunar Ōtsutsuki had never been his focus, and he couldn't recall anything of any use.

All I remember is that by this time, almost all of them were dead, and they were just one step away from extinction.

"Kaguya, what are your plans for the next step?" Uchiha Shingen asked.

"I am very curious about Hagoromo's current state," Kaguya Otsutsuki said, seemingly quite seriously. "Judging from his appearance, he has lost his physical body. After all, he is a piece of my flesh, and I feel very sorry for him."

Uchiha Shingen: "... That's quite a sad story."

Kaguya Otsutsuki looked over with displeasure, seemingly very unhappy that Uchiha Shingen had dared to speak ill of her.

Uchiha Shingen was quite straightforward; he simply shrugged and indicated that it wasn't his fault.

There was no way around it; Kaguya's smile was so obvious, she was practically bursting into laughter.

If he doesn't use some kind of veiled humor, can he still be considered a time traveler?

Chapter 50 Kaguya of Pan'er

Although Kaguya Otsutsuki was unhappy that Uchiha Shingen wasn't showing any support, she soon found herself smiling.

There was no way around it; she was genuinely quite happy.

"Never mind, but I didn't expect Hagoromo to be in this state." After laughing, Kaguya Otsutsuki got down to business, "But that 'Pure Land' won't be easy to find."

"That's the place where people go after they die in mythology, so of course it's not easy to find." Uchiha Shingen nodded in agreement.

Uchiha Shingen now truly believes that this Sage of Six Paths is a formidable figure.

They can sit idly by and watch their own descendants beat people's brains into a pulp, without uttering a sound.

Just hoard Chakra.

Seriously speaking, in every era, after removing the Chakra reincarnations of Ashura and Indra, the bloodline belonging to the Sage of Six Paths has always been the most active.

In modern times, the Senju of the Forest and the Uchiha Clan are just the most famous among them.

Characters like Uzumaki Clan, Hyuga Clan, Kaguya Clan are not unknown figures.

Even the Kinkaku Ginkaku brothers of Cloud Village are descendants of the Sage of Six Paths.

This is practically a ghost version of the nth generation co-existing series.

Perhaps, Hagoromo Otsutsuki only recognizes Chakra, so in his eyes these people are not his descendants.

What about the Lunar Ōtsutsuki?

Those guys are pretty innocent.

An entire family still died, and Hagoromo Otsutsuki didn't even try to save them.

Therefore, Uchiha Shingen believed that Hagoromo Otsutsuki was definitely not a bad person, but he was undoubtedly an extremely stubborn person. In the eyes of this savior sage, everything had a price tag, no one was closer to him, and everyone could be sacrificed, it just depended on whether it was worth it.

Offering special treatment or cheat codes depends on their value; the same applies to watching someone's entire family perish.

That's terrifying.

The scariest thing is that he's not a hypocrite, and he's ruthless to himself too.

After sealing Kaguya Otsutsuki, Hagoromo Otsutsuki became the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, invincible in the world.

The Ten-Tails Jinchuriki not only possesses explosive fighting power, but also immortality.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki could easily use this power to rule the world himself and make it follow his wishes.

So what if Indra and Ashura are arguing? It's just a matter of one slap.

But he refused.

From the perspective of the original timeline, Hagoromo Otsutsuki's goal was to make the world a better place, and that was through the power of the collective. He resolutely opposed anyone being above everyone else, but as the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, he himself was the one who undermined this system.

So he turned around and stabbed himself.

He pulled out the Ten-Tails and split it into nine, losing this power and simultaneously putting himself on a death countdown in the conventional sense.

Uchiha Shingen felt that his choice was not wrong after all. After all, he had always thought that Kaguya Otsutsuki was the ultimate boss, but now, looking back, she seemed to be the most normal person.

"Perhaps, a special condition is needed." Kaguya Otsutsuki was still reminiscing.

"More than that, Kaguya, shouldn't you be more concerned about whether you can sense when your main clan members arrive?" Uchiha Shingen asked.
