Including Hitoshi Clan Head's past life, opinions of Princess Kaguya seemed to have always been sharply divided.

But one thing was certain: her beauty had conquered even more people.

Even during their first meeting, Hyuga Hitoshi had still been slightly stunned by her beauty.

Her skin was like congealed cream, her flesh and bones like jade.

Her complexion was pale, carrying a chill about it.

Even with her eyes closed as she rested there, she exuded an aloof pride that kept others at a thousand paces. Her long hair behind her formed a natural cushion. Even while sealed away, she still maintained the elegance of the Rabbit Goddess.

But now, the Rabbit Goddess could no longer keep herself composed.

Her eyelids trembled slightly. White pupils slowly appeared as she looked toward the gaze watching her from afar, a trace of killing intent appearing on her face.

Her slender jade hands tightened around the robe on her body, but even so, she still felt awkward, as though she had been completely exposed.

And in the past ten days, she had endured that gaze several times already.

Even stranger, she seemed able to hear that audacious culprit saying something to her.

"What do you think of my proposal?"

"After all, that used to be your Nursery. Though it belongs to me now, it's not as if I can't take you there for a look."

"The Shinobi World's scenery is nothing special, but it's still far better than being sealed away."

Outside the barrier, the Sharp Gaze Clan Head calmly wiped away his nosebleed, then offered his well-meaning proposal.

Hyuga Hitoshi was absolutely not a lecherous man!

Besides, he had not been intentionally peeping. It was just that the stimulation brought by the Colored X-ray Eyes was far more shocking than he had expected, especially with the added allure of her identity as the Rabbit Goddess.

Men would always feel the urge to conquer women of high status.

But Hitoshi Clan Head had long learned to restrain himself. As for what he had just said, it had merely been an impulsive remark. Come if you wanted to; forget it if you did not.

With that thought, Hitoshi Clan Head took out a small Simulation Doll from In One's Arms.

He had made it casually over the past few days while studying the Puppet Technique left behind by Hamura. But although he called it casual work, Hyuga Hitoshi could proudly say that whether it was the feel or the proportions of every detail, this thing had been made as an exact replica of Kaguya Otsutsuki inside the barrier!

He confidently declared that if he ever learned Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's Sukuna Hikona, then after shrinking himself, he might even be able to keep the doll company.

This was his proud masterpiece!

It would definitely lure the Rabbit Goddess into taking the bait.

And so, when Hyuga Hitoshi took out the miniature Kaguya, Princess Kaguya inside the barrier fiercely glared at him, but still said nothing.

However, as Isshiki's former subordinate, she clearly knew the effects of that shrinking dojutsu. Thus, the look she gave her own Simulation Doll became inexplicably strange.

In the end, Princess Kaguya's expression turned cold, and she closed her eyes again.

She gave off the air of an expert who found peace in what she could not see.

But Hyuga Hitoshi was still keeping his Byakugan activated. How could he possibly fail to see the thread of Chakra Source Power that had been separated from Kaguya's side?

If he wanted to bring Kaguya out of the moon entirely, then given Hyuga Hitoshi's current level of connection with the Energy Vessel Tenseigan, he probably could not manage it for now.

But it was only a thread of Chakra. That was no difficulty for him.

Azure Blue Light gleamed in his sharp eyes. At the same time, the Energy Vessel Tenseigan floating above the lunar battlefield also radiated golden light.

On the ground, the Otsutsuki clansmen still cleaning up the aftermath hurriedly lowered their heads devoutly and began to bow in respect.

"Praise the Sun."

Hyuga meant being born facing the sun.

That was how they understood the former brethren who had stood above the Hyuga Clan and the Otsutsuki Clan.

Inside the Secret Chamber, he passed through the barrier.

Hyuga Hitoshi's ocular power began to drain rapidly.

Finally, he used his Chakra to "grab" Kaguya within the Six Paths Chibaku Tensei, as though clasping her hand.

The barrier itself contained Hamura's power, so accomplishing this was not particularly difficult.

But to Princess Kaguya's great surprise, this time she left very smoothly. She did not see the soul of that Unfilial Son who had supposedly kept her company. In the past, he had exhausted his soul power and resisted desperately to stop her from observing the outside world.

Of course, it was also possible that the Unfilial Son considered this separated fragment of consciousness insignificant and could not be bothered to waste his ever-dwindling soul power.

As for the Actual Situation, only Hamura himself likely knew.

Thus, when Kaguya's consciousness recovered and she slowly opened her eyes—

She was surprised to find herself already outside the barrier.

But her body...

After trying to control the vessel housing her, Princess Kaguya silently floated up, dragging her long hair behind her.

It fit unexpectedly well.

But the better it fit, the more that man likely understood her.

What was frightening was that he even knew some...

Feeling certain perfectly fitting measurements, the Rabbit Goddess's expression turned even colder.

Just as she had thought, that man had seen everything clearly!

No one could desecrate a god!

Not even if that person had allowed a portion of her consciousness and a thread of Chakra to leave the seal!

Floating in the air, Kaguya coldly stared at Hyuga Hitoshi.

Then—

Bzz!

An overwhelming pressure carrying an endless Sense of Oppression swept toward Hyuga Hitoshi!

A thousand years ago, she had used this move to make those who showed her disrespect pay the price.

Since this descendant of Hamura had brought her out, she only needed to leave him alive.

With that thought, Princess Kaguya, believing herself merciful, unleashed a violent aura. An invisible wave smashed fiercely into that disrespectful man!

Bang!

The backward-rushing scenery in her eyes all indicated that the Byakugan Authority had succeeded.

But when Kaguya's petite body slammed into the wall of the Secret Chamber, she fell silent for a moment before struggling to Stand Up and Patted the dust from her body.

The one who had flown away was herself.

What had she just done?

It was rather cool.

Hyuga Hitoshi stared blankly at the scene. He Scratched His Head, seeing an emotion called shutting down in Kaguya.

It was obvious why.

The power Kaguya could use now was truly a bargain-bin version of her own strength.

How could it possibly shake the body of a Beast of Burden like Hyuga Hitoshi?

Even at her peak, Kaguya probably would not gain any advantage against Hyuga Hitoshi, who could unleash the Energy Vessel Tenseigan's attacks in full succession.

Otherwise, could this thing really be called Hamura's contingency plan?

It was only because Hyuga Hitoshi's control over the Energy Vessel Tenseigan's power was currently limited, his connection was weak, and it became harder to control the farther away it was. Otherwise, he would have long since gone to the Shinobi World to show off and overturn the table.

In the Original Work, had Toneri not only gained the confidence to control the moon and crash it into the Shinobi World two years after the Fourth Shinobi World War ended?

But Hitoshi Clan Head was far fiercer than Toneri. At the very least, on the moon, Hyuga Hitoshi was invincible. He would not be one-shot by Naruto's punch.

He was a Godslayer.

Kaguya Otsutsuki calmly watched Hyuga Hitoshi.

She felt that the way this man looked at her was filled with possessiveness.

Even though she was now merely a doll.

"Let's go. Let's take a look at my Nursery."

Hyuga Hitoshi could not be bothered to waste words on this icy beauty. He turned directly and headed toward the Secret Chamber's exit.

Now that she was out, he could educate her slowly in the future.

In truth, he did not have any particularly grand ideas when he brought Kaguya's consciousness out.

According to his future plans, there would definitely come a day when he clashed with the Akatsuki.

Just imagining Black Zetsu's expression when he saw Kaguya made Hyuga Hitoshi feel refreshed all over.

But that was not the main point.

The main point was that after this, he had finally grasped the upgrade pattern of his Golden Finger.

Mr. 91 Gold: Your actions are enough to affect the entire Shinobi World and impact its history. This world's Worldview has already been initially influenced. Please keep up the good work. Part of the Worldview has been shaken. Upgrade progress has slightly increased. Your Intangible Teleportation ability has been strengthened!

He had found the answer to the current meta!

Those who stirred up trouble got things done.

But as the tool being used, Princess Kaguya did not seem very happy.

Despicable Godslayer. That is my Nursery.

Princess Kaguya fell silent for a moment before finally controlling her petite body to float up and follow the man out of the Secret Chamber.
