In the days that followed, several people arrived at Hui's laboratory, joining the research into the Ōtsutsuki clan's biology.
However, they weren’t told the full truth about the ninja world. Hui had no intention of revealing it to them. Exposing the truth would be too overwhelming and could cause ntal breakdowns among those not ntally resilient enough.
They only needed to know one thing: that there existed a terrifying enemy known as the Ōtsutsuki clan.
After organizing the lab and ensuring that the research was progressing smoothly, Hui prepared to depart.
Although Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was still lurking sowhere in the ninja world, and no one besides Hui could stand against him, Isshiki wouldn’t make a move anyti soon. Therefore, Hui decided to personally head to the moon.
Before leaving, he left behind two shadow avatars. One remained in the laboratory, while the other stayed in the Hokage’s office.
With both avatars stationed in key areas, even if Isshiki decided to attack Konoha on a whim, the village would remain safe under the protective barrier maintained by Hui’s avatars.
Since his real body was heading out, it ant that Hui intended to resolve the situation on the moon as quickly as possible.
That night, Hui ascended from Konoha like a shooting star. His wings shimred and flapped as he soared upward at great speed.
However, as he climbed higher, his speed gradually decreased.
Once he reached the vacuum of space, he folded his wings and floated effortlessly, controlling his movent through the void.
During the flight, Hui utilized light refraction to bend the surrounding light, making his body effectively invisible. Simultaneously, he suppressed all traces of chakra within his body.
If, despite all this, he was still discovered by the Ōtsutsuki clan residing on the moon, Hui was willing to accept the outco.
Fortunately, his advanced concealnt ant that none of the Ōtsutsuki clan mbers on the moon noticed his approach, allowing Hui to infiltrate without incident.
Luckily, the distance between the moon and the ninja world wasn’t vast.
If it were like his previous life, where the moon was hundreds of thousands of kiloters away, it would have taken him much longer to fly there.
Upon landing on the lunar surface, Hui surveyed the cratered terrain and activated his sensory abilities to locate the inhabitants of the moon.
Since the moon was an artificial creation ford by the Six Path’s Chibaku Tensei, its size wasn’t very large.
Hui quickly detected the descendants of Hamura Ōtsutsuki.
However, in addition to them, Hui sensed another presence—
Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, who was sealed within the moon.
"Ōtsutsuki Kaguya..." Hui murmured to himself.
He had mixed thoughts regarding Kaguya.
Kaguya was different from the other mbers of the Ōtsutsuki clan. Her existence didn’t pose as significant a threat to the ninja world as the rest of her clan.
In fact, she could even beco a guardian of the ninja world.
After all, Kaguya shared a common enemy with the people of the ninja world.
She had betrayed Ōtsutsuki Isshiki and the Ōtsutsuki clan by consuming the fruit of the God Tree for herself.
The very enemy that threatened the ninja world, the Ōtsutsuki clan, was the sa enemy that had led to Kaguya’s downfall.
The reason she had been sealed away was due to her creation of White Zetsu as a defense against the Ōtsutsuki clan, which ultimately caused her two sons to seal her.
Therefore, Kaguya could very well beco a sword in Hui’s hand, a weapon to use against the Ōtsutsuki clan.
Additionally, Kaguya held valuable information about the Ōtsutsuki clan.
Once the mystery surrounding the Ōtsutsuki clan was unraveled, they would be much easier to defeat.
This was one of the reasons why Hui wasn’t in a hurry to unify the ninja world.
The things he told Madara about the Ōtsutsuki clan being terrifying and the lack of knowledge about their nature were only half-true.
Hui knew when other mbers of the Ōtsutsuki clan would arrive, and he had a plan for how to gather detailed intelligence on them.
He might not be able to glean such information from Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, but getting it from Kaguya would be much easier.
"First, I need to deal with the descendants of Hamura. The timing is just right."
Hui muttered to himself, a glint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
Through his sensory abilities, he could see that the descendants of Hamura Ōtsutsuki were divided into two factions and were currently facing off against each other.
There was no doubt, they were split into the main family and the branch family.
Judging by the rising tension, a war between the two factions could break out at any mont.
Moving swiftly, Hui soon arrived at the confrontation site between the two groups of Hamura’s descendants.
His concealnt was so flawless, coupled with the absence of chakra in his body, that even with their Byakugan, the descendants couldn’t detect his presence.
“The ninja world has no reason to exist. It would be better to destroy it and rebuild a new world!”
Hui heard soone speak as soon as he arrived. The tone and rhetoric made it clear that this individual was from the branch family.
“The ninja world’s developnt has seen its share of wars and setbacks, but overall, it is heading toward peace. How can you casually talk about destroying it?”
A voice from the main family refuted the claim, filled with righteous indignation.
“Are you planning to go against the will of the ancestors?”
Soone from the branch family spoke up angrily, their tone dripping with fury.
“The people of the ninja world are living beings! Wiping them all out makes us no different from Ōtsutsuki Kaguya!”
The main family’s response was filled with compassion, they couldn’t bear the thought of annihilating all humanity.
“The world deserves a better restart. It’s precisely because of these people that the world has beco such a failure. Destroying everything and starting anew is the path this world should follow!”
The branch family mber’s words dripped with cold detachnt. To them, the people of the ninja world were as insignificant as ants.
They felt no sympathy, no guilt—only cold resolve.
“You’re treating human lives like grass beneath your feet. You’ve completely twisted the will of the ancestors!”
The main family mbers were outraged by the branch family’s callous philosophy.
The branch family, equally infuriated, began to shout back. Neither side was willing to back down.
The confrontation escalated into a physical fight. While no one was killed, many were injured.
It was clear that the ideological differences had driven a wedge between the two sides, sowing seeds of hatred.
That hatred grew deeper by the day, destined to erupt into a raging inferno that would consu their enemies.
After yet another inconclusive skirmish, both sides retreated in anger.
The main family mbers returned while muttering curses under their breath, yet still discussed ways they could persuade the branch family to see reason.
anwhile, the branch family held a secret eting.
They had reached their limit. They no longer wanted to engage in endless argunts with the main family. They began devising a plan to end this dispute once and for all.
The proposal to activate the Tenseigan Plan was brought up once again, this ti receiving even more support from their increasingly enraged mbers.
…
From the shadows, Hui silently observed everything.
Watching the madness spread through the branch family, the last bit of hesitation in his heart vanished.
A group like this, if used as experintal material, caused him no moral burden.
However, Hui didn’t act imdiately.
The branch family was clearly insane, but the main family had many mbers with kind hearts.
Since they were of the sa lineage, if Hui attacked the branch family, the main family wouldn’t just stand by and do nothing.
He needed to co up with a solution that avoided unnecessary conflict.
Hui pondered.
From the current situation, he could predict that the branch family would soon make a move against the main family.
He could wait until the branch family wiped out the main family and then strike back at the branch family, securing the bodies of the main family as additional experintal material, a twofold gain.
But Hui quickly dismissed that idea.
He wasn’t so saint, but he had a bottom line.
Many of the main family mbers sincerely cared about the ninja world. Allowing them to die at the hands of the branch family, only to use their corpses for experints, was sothing Hui couldn’t bring himself to do.
“Let’s check on Kaguya first.”
Unable to co up with an ideal plan for the mont, Hui decided to visit Ōtsutsuki Kaguya and see what insights that might bring.
[Tl/N: I'm absolutely sorry for not uploading all these while! have a great day/night!]
