The images vanished, and Naruto clenched his fists tightly.
Natsuki chuckled.
"Naruto, this was the life of Boruto's father."
"Otsutsuki Hagoromo insisted that you live this kind of life. Would you be willing?"
Naruto looked at Otsutsuki Hagoromo, his eyes filled with disgust.
"You old bastard, don't even think about it!"
Seeing Natsuki twist Naruto's understanding of the matter,
Otsutsuki Hagoromo snorted angrily.
"Uchiha Natsuki, you're twisting the facts!"
Natsuki cut Otsutsuki Hagoromo off directly.
"Just tell me this: if I hadn't appeared, wouldn't Naruto's life have gone exactly like this!?"
Otsutsuki Hagoromo fell silent for several seconds. In the end, he did not lie. "Yes."
"However, those were necessary hardships..."
"Enough. I don't want to hear your bullshit. At the end of the day, aren't you just praising suffering?"
Natsuki had not shown these scenes to persuade Otsutsuki Hagoromo.
The moment Otsutsuki Hagoromo attacked Natsuki, their feud had become irreconcilable.
Natsuki had mainly shown them to Kurama. Otsutsuki Hagoromo had separated them from the Ten-Tails.
Although Otsutsuki Hagoromo had wanted to divide the Ten-Tails' power and prevent Kaguya Otsutsuki from reviving,
to Kurama, it still counted as a favor.
Kurama's attitude was what mattered most.
Kurama had never been a kind-hearted creature. The scenes Natsuki had shown thoroughly disgusted him.
Naruto had clearly been the son of a savior, yet he had been controlled by the Third Hokage's filthy politics.
In the end, he had been tamed into a dog by the so-called Will of Fire.
He had been forced to seek recognition from those who bullied him, then become Hokage and continue working himself to the bone for that village.
And now Otsutsuki Hagoromo claimed that this was training, meant to teach Naruto about love and bonds.
Wasn't that mental exploitation?
As someone who had been with Naruto
