The Sage of Six Paths looked toward Kaguya's figure.
"After she devoured the God Tree Fruit, her own power and her authority over the world split apart."
"Part of that power became you."
"You and Hamura possessed her power, but you also carried the lingering will of this world's living beings."
"So you were destined to oppose her."
"The battle between mother and sons began the moment you were born."
Lie Yang finally found the last piece of the puzzle.
Kaguya had not borne children by joining with a human.
Hagoromo and Hamura were divine children born from the division of Kaguya's power after she devoured the world's authority.
They possessed Kaguya's power, as well as the will of the native living beings.
That was the true reason the battle between mother and sons had been inevitable.
"So the Great Toad Sage saw all of this long ago?"
"He saw part of it."
The Sage of Six Paths said:
"He saw that you and Hamura would unite against your mother, and that the Shinobi World would reach a new turning point after long ages."
"But he could not see you."
"Because of me?"
"Because you are not part of the original fate."
Lie Yang closed his eyes.
The next moment, vast white light spread from between his brows.
Layer upon layer of white light engulfed the gray-white space, forcibly dragging Nagato's broken consciousness into it.
Inside the Amegakure Tower, Nagato's body jolted violently.
His Rinnegan, which had already dimmed, opened again, only to be completely swallowed by blinding white light.
His spiritual origin struggled relentlessly within the white light.
The eye power released by his Rinnegan became a purple tide, attempting to resist the invading light.
But the structure of Lie Yang's Spiritual Technique was far more stable than Nagato's.
