A faint smile tugged at the corners of Kaguya Otsutsuki’s lips, and a trace of appreciation flickered in her profound eyes.
It seed like a long ti since she had encountered soone who could contend with her so fiercely.
Even if her two sons, Hamura and Hagoromo, joined forces, they absolutely could not reach this level.
Those two rebellious sons, relying on her doting affection and reluctance towards them, actually joined hands to seal her away.
If not for her heart truly being unable to bear striking them down, how would Kaguya Otsutsuki have given them the chance to get close?
At this mont, Ryun stood steadily in the void, his eyes cold as frosty stars, fixed unwaveringly on Kaguya Otsutsuki, showing not the slightest hint of fear.
anwhile, Black Zetsu, standing to the side, wore a look of worry on his face.
Others might not know, but Black Zetsu understood clearly in his heart that Ryun was very skilled at concealing his true strength.
Now, facing such fierce attacks from his mother, he could still remain so calm and composed. This clearly indicated he must possess so powerful hidden card up his sleeve.
One must know, Ryun’s hidden cards were definitely not to be underestimated!
In the very next mont, Kaguya Otsutsuki lightly waved her hand. Space seed to tear apart, a massive fissure appearing.
Her figure, ghost-like, swiftly vanished into it. Imdiately after, the spatial rift closed as well, as if it had never existed.
Ryun’s pupils contracted sharply, a flash of shock in his eyes. Yomotsu Hirasaka! Instantly, he pushed his Soul Perception Technique to the limit, and the golden dragon armor of his Sage Mode was also activated to its utmost.
In the original story, this move, appearing and disappearing mysteriously, had caused Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto considerable trouble, leading to them being beaten for a while.
He never thought it would be his turn now!
In the very next mont, a portal opened above his head, followed by countless fist shadows blasting out. Ryun’s face turned grim. "Night Guy!"
Cracking sounds ca from the bones in Ryun’s leg, but just this alone wouldn’t be fatal! After kicking, he imdiately used Samsara, restoring his leg bones.
Although the Eight Inner Gates had no side effects, the Night Guy move would still inflict serious injury on his leg, though not enough to kill.
With one kick, blood energy transford into a dragon, charging towards Kaguya Otsutsuki. Her pupils shrank. She sensed a threat from this move.
So she ceased her attack and rged into Yomotsu Hirasaka once more. Who knew this move could actually tear open the space-ti fissure? A dragon chased straight for Kaguya Otsutsuki’s head.
Kaguya Otsutsuki’s eyes turned cold. She consecutively executed Yomotsu Hirasaka five tis, causing the dragon to dart about chaotically. Only after its chakra was exhausted did she shatter it with a single palm strike.
Afterwards, Kaguya Otsutsuki’s figure reappeared. Wariness colored her eyes as she looked at Ryun. At this mont, Ryun’s chakra, stamina, and leg bones were all restored to peak condition.
The two stood facing each other, neither speaking. Finally, Kaguya Otsutsuki sighed. "No more fighting, no more. I am weary."
Continuing to fight like this was no solution. She was still quite grateful to Ryun. Not to ntion he was her blood descendant, just the fact he dared to defy the world to release her was enough for her to appreciate him.
Moreover, the more loyal Ryun was in love, the more she wanted to conquer him. Because in her eyes, Ryun was simply the perfect husband.
Capable, powerful, and loyal. Since that girl nad Tsunade had already gotten ahead, she would just wait. After all, who could say for sure about the future?
If one day, Tsunade was killed by Isshiki or so other enemy, wouldn’t her chance co?
From what she knew, that fellow Isshiki was ugly and petty-minded. He definitely would not tolerate Ryun’s happiness!
So, she just needed to wait for the right opportunity. As for her blood descendant? She could clearly sense that there was not a trace of her bloodline within this Ryun.
Perhaps it was because the Uchiha na belonged to Indra’s descendants that led him to believe he was her, Kaguya’s, progeny.
"So, may I ask if Lady Kaguya agrees to my request, to take action at the critical mont and together slay Otsutsuki Isshiki!" Ryun said solemnly.
Kaguya Otsutsuki blinked her eyes. "Yes. I also find that ugly monster unpleasant anyway!"
Thus, Ryun and Kaguya Otsutsuki reached a preliminary consensus. Ryun even welcod Kaguya to visit Konoha as a guest.
Kaguya Otsutsuki declined. The ninja world disgusted her, and it was filled with Hagoromo’s descendants everywhere. Seeing them irritated her.
In the end, Kaguya Otsutsuki chose to remain on the moon. This excited Otsutsuki Toneri imnsely. The moon had been so empty for so long, he was desperately lonely.
Now that the Progenitor had co, he could occasionally chat with her, and that made him incredibly happy!
Moreover, hearing the Progenitor had a very long lifespan, he probably wouldn’t be lonely before his own death!
Initially, Kaguya Otsutsuki had so reservations about Otsutsuki Toneri’s identity. But as ti passed, she discovered Toneri was an extrely sentintal person!
She saw the shadow of Otsutsuki Hamura in him. Actually, Otsutsuki Hamura had been very obedient. She didn’t know what ans Otsutsuki Hagoromo had used to corrupt Hamura.
That led him to strike against her. And after sealing her, he had always accompanied her on the moon.
Otsutsuki Toneri even went so far, to ensure his Progenitor ate well, as to specifically go to the ninja world to buy quite a lot of food from Konoha Village, just to have more conversations with the Progenitor.
Feeling Toneri’s sincerity, Kaguya Otsutsuki sighed and said, "Toneri, co here."
Hearing this, Otsutsuki Toneri walked over to Kaguya Otsutsuki’s side with a cheerful smile.
Then, Kaguya Otsutsuki cut open her own flesh. Her blood flowed into Otsutsuki Toneri’s eye sockets.
Although Toneri didn’t know why the Progenitor was doing this, he believed she must be doing it for his good.
Not long after, he felt an intense itch in his eye sockets. Then, a pair of Byakugan grew out.
Kaguya Otsutsuki healed her wound and said, "Since you are my descendant and acknowledge as your Progenitor, I will not stand by and watch you remain blind."
After speaking, Kaguya Otsutsuki continued eating the Konoha dishes. It must be said, the food Konoha made was delicious. Compared to her era, it was simply divine!
Otsutsuki Toneri was stunned. He slowly opened his eyes. This ti, it wasn’t a black and white world. His world was now full of color!
"Progenitor... I..." Otsutsuki Toneri’s eyes filled with tears. Before, no matter how distressed he was, he couldn’t cry. Now, he was sowhat agitated. He touched his own cheeks.
Feeling that clear, warm liquid, his heart overflowed with gratitude towards Kaguya Otsutsuki.
Kaguya Otsutsuki smiled. "Toneri, alright, don’t cry. You are, after all, Hamura’s only living heir in the world today. No more crying."
Kaguya Otsutsuki was very satisfied with Toneri’s reaction. At the sa ti, his crying appearance stirred compassion in her heart.
This was simply a replica of her son, Otsutsuki Hamura. When Hamura was little, he also cried often. She would hold him, soothe him until he fell asleep and entered dreamland.
Although she had been betrayed by her man, she did not transfer that resentnt onto her sons. On the contrary, she was soone who valued family bonds the most.
Perhaps she held so grievances in her heart about being sealed by her sons, but it didn’t rise to the level of hatred. What she hated was that old toad from Mount Myoboku, spreading fallacies and confusing people.
She hated that rebellious son Hagoromo, who for the sake of the ninja world, could sever family ties.
As for Hagoromo, she had always regarded him as her most obedient child.
He had just made a mistake for a ti. Moreover, to atone, he parted ways with his elder brother and remained on the moon. Every festival, he would offer incense and wine to her.
Although she couldn’t drink it, that sentint was rembered in her heart.
"In the future, Toneri, you cultivate diligently here on the moon. As for won, when the ti cos, I will capture a few for you."
Otsutsuki Toneri nodded obediently. From then on, Kaguya Otsutsuki and Otsutsuki Toneri resided temporarily on the moon.
Ryun, busy for a day, returned ho. He directly climbed onto the bed and fell asleep.
Today had consud too much ocular power and chakra. He only wanted to catch up on sleep.
Tsunade was still not awake at this mont. Ryun simply pulled Tsunade into his embrace, and the two fell into a deep sleep together.
The Next Day
Fire Temple
After a whole night of struggling for control over the body, Otsutsuki Isshiki narrowly lost. Jigen once again gained full control of the body. But Jigen knew.
Perhaps in less than a year, his soul would be completely devoured by Otsutsuki Isshiki, thus becoming the vessel for Isshiki’s resurrection.
He was sorrowful, yet he had no choice but to accept this outco. After all, he had used Otsutsuki Isshiki’s power to live for nearly a thousand years.
During these thousand years, he had enjoyed benefits and power he originally could never have accessed in his lifeti.
He should have been satisfied, willingly handing over his body. But humans are like this. After enjoying things they never could before, they beco greedy.
Just like Jigen now. He was unwilling to give up his body, unwilling to hand over all his current assets to Otsutsuki Isshiki. He was also a person!
He slowly spoke. "Isshiki, I’ve won again."
At this mont, within Jigen’s body, Otsutsuki Isshiki cast a faint, mocking glance at his soul.
If it were a thousand years ago, when he was weak, he might have been sowhat wary of Jigen. But now, he had recovered nearly seventy percent of his strength.
His Karma was also nearly eighty percent unlocked. Once the Karma unlocked to one hundred percent, no matter how powerful Jigen’s soul force or how firm his willpower,
His soul would beco nourishnt for Isshiki’s spirit, further enhancing Isshiki’s ntal power.
Perhaps, by then, he might even awaken new skills.
Poor Jigen thought he had won. Little did he know he had lost completely, utterly.
Every struggle of his would only grant Otsutsuki Isshiki greater benefits after devouring his soul.
