Chapter 286: Finale Kaguya Otsutsuki
In the quiet and dark passage, only the sound of footsteps could be heard. The unknown minerals inlaid on the surrounding stone walls emitted a faint blue fluorescence that reflected on the quaint murals on the stone walls.
Jiu Xing took a quick look and saw some stories about Kaguya Otsutsuki from a thousand years ago, which were carved on the stone wall in the form of murals.
"No one has set foot here in a thousand years. Even I am here for the first time."
Otsutsuki Yomei, who was leading the way, walked forward according to the records in the classics.
Uchiha Sasuke listened to the other party's words and couldn't help but glance around and said:
"Since no one has ever been here, how come it is so clean?"
If no one had come here for a thousand years, the place would be dusty and dilapidated. However, not only the murals, but even the glowing minerals do not have a speck of dust.
"No matter what, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki is the mother of our ancestor and the Sage of Six Paths."
"The ancestors set up a magic array to purify the world here."
“So it’s naturally clean.”
With Otsutsuki Yomei leading the way with three other people, it took the three of them half an hour to pass through this passage.
Moreover, along the way, Jiu Xing was also keenly aware of various murderous formations. If it weren't for Otsutsuki Yangming leading the way, although these formations could not do anything to Jiu Xing, it would undoubtedly still take some effort.
As the scene in front of them suddenly became clear, a quiet cave appeared in front of them.
There is a pool of water in the cave, and in the center of the pool there is a metal lotus platform. On the lotus platform there is a beautiful white-haired woman in a loose white robe kneeling.
The other person's hair was extremely long and had already been submerged in the water, but he seemed unaware of this. Jiu Xing could feel that his breath was long and deep, and there was an almost terrifying chakra in his body that was sealed by some kind of restriction.
The woman in front of him slowly opened her eyes, and her pair of pure white eyes looked at Jiu Xing and the other three.
To be precise, looking at Jiu Xing, she could feel that the other person possessed a considerable portion of her chakra in his body.
"You possess my power."
The woman, Kaguya Otsutsuki looked at Kyuuki calmly and spoke.
"Surprisingly, it's really Kaguya..."
Otsutsuki Isshiki looked at Otsutsuki Kaguya in front of him with a complicated expression.
In his world, Kaguya did not sneak attack him. In Otsutsuki Isshiki's view, the other party was undoubtedly his peer who could be trusted by him.
Jiu Xing looked at the person in front of him. He could sense that the nine tailed beasts in his body began to chirp.
The nine tailed beasts are essentially split bodies of the Ten Tails belonging to Kaguya Otsutsuki, and the Ten Tails is the sacred tree planted by Kaguya Otsutsuki.
"It's not your power."
Jiu Xing looked at the woman in front of him and spoke.
The Ten-Tails, or the Outer Path Demon Statue is just a shell, and the nine tailed beasts are the result of the Divine Tree absorbing energy from the earth.
To be precise, the nine tailed beasts are the result of the power of the earth being materialized by the sacred tree.
"Oh, my power is in your body now, so you can say whatever you want."
The woman raised her white neck and looked at Jiu Xing in front of her with a mocking expression.
"Kaguya Otsutsuki."
"Do you recognize this?"
Jiu Xing stretched out his left hand towards the woman in front of him, and the wedge in his palm appeared in front of her.
As the wedge was activated, black lines climbed up Jiuxing's arms, shoulders, and cheeks, and at this time Jiuxing's left eye also turned black.
An aura that was so familiar to Kaguya Otsutsuki rushed towards me.
This is……
"You are Ōtsutsuki Isshiki!"
At this moment, Kaguya Otsutsuki looked at the man in front of her in horror.
As someone who had personally attacked and severely injured Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, how could she not be familiar with this power?
As a subordinate of Otsutsuki Isshiki, she rebelled against her superior and disregarded the rules of the Otsutsuki clan. This undoubtedly violated the clan's iron law and she would inevitably be severely punished.
What she feared most was Otsutsuki Isshiki, who was not killed by her.
She knew his temper very well, and knew that he would definitely come to her for settlement after his injuries healed.
That's why she established the so-called White Zetsu Army.
It’s a pity that the White Zetsu army was only halfway completed when she was ambushed by two ungrateful and unfilial sons.
"No, the Isshiki of this world is already dead."
"And this is my trophy."
Jiu Xing looked at the wedge in his hand and spoke.
"You, killed Otsutsuki Isshiki?"
"Are you making me laugh?"
"If so, you've succeeded."
How could Kaguya Otsutsuki believe that the man who had always made her worried would die at the hands of a human?
However, at this moment, she keenly realized that Jiu Xing's breath was not that of a simple human, but was infinitely close to a member of the Otsutsuki clan.
And it is a purer bloodline that is no less pure than his own.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you. Anyway, this time I didn't come to you on purpose."
"It's mainly the one next to me."
Jiu Xing slightly turned sideways, giving the home court to the Otsutsuki Isshiki who was dressed as an old farmer beside him.
"you are?"
Kaguya Otsutsuki looked at Isshiki in confusion, she didn't know this person.
Just an ordinary human being.
At this moment, Isshiki looked at Kaguya in front of him with a complicated expression and said, "Kaguya, can you tell me what the Otsutsuki clan's so-called Ten Tails means?"
Even though Jiuxing had told him before, even though the attitude of everyone here was openly hostile towards the Otsutsuki clan, and even though Isshiki himself had already vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
However, he still wanted to hear the words spoken by his companion's counterpart in person.
"Do you need me to explain this to you?"
Even though she didn't recognize Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya still looked at him with mockery.
I don’t know if it’s because she has been alone for too long, but Kaguya Otsutsuki’s attitude is more talkative than the one in the original book.
"That man claimed to have killed Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, so he should understand."
"The so-called Ten-Tails."
“The so-called sacred tree.”
"We, the Otsutsuki clan, have always been the overlords and masters of the universe. The universe is our nursery and the planets are our food."
"Even if there are those who don't know how to live or die and want to challenge our dignity."
“But the cost is absolutely unbearable.”
Kaguya Otsutsuki's words made Isshiki's heart sink to the bottom.
It is exactly the same as what Uzumaki Kyuyuki next to him said.
In this world, the Otsutsuki clan, who were dedicated to peace and justice, have become a group of executioners who will stop at nothing, a group of demons who treat life as a joke.
This is something that Otsutsuki Isshiki absolutely cannot tolerate.
We cannot tolerate that the glorious, noble and righteous Otsutsuki monument be tainted with an unforgivable stain.
"You want to rebel against the Otsutsuki clan? You are overestimating your own abilities." Kaguya Otsutsuki looked at the people in front of her with sarcasm on her delicate face.
"Then what were you thinking after you attacked your companions and seriously injured them, and swallowed the chakra fruit?"
"Am I to understand that you are also one of the members who rebelled against the Otsutsuki clan?"
Jiu Xing heard the other party's words and suddenly spoke.
"..."
Kaguya Otsutsuki suddenly fell silent at this moment.
She stared at Jiu Xing with her pure white eyes.
Even her two unfilial sons didn't know these details, so how did this guy know them?
"If you want the Ten-Tails to truly produce the Chakra Fruit, a member of the Otsutsuki clan must be sacrificed and become food for the Ten-Tails."
"And this person, why is it that I am a concubine? Why can't it be Otsutsuki Isshiki?"
"Is this reason enough?"
Listening to the words of the goddess of the Rabbit, Jiu Xing nodded, then continued with an inexplicable smile and said:
"If we only consider our own interests, it is indeed a reasonable reason."
"But because of the existence of the wedge, sacrificing that one Ōtsutsuki will not be true death."
"Sooner or later, I will be reborn in my reincarnated body."
"In fact, you have a rebellious heart that wants to break out of the cage and break the rules."
"That's why you attacked your teammates and your superiors."
"And to form an army to resist the Otsutsuki who may come at any time."
Hearing what Jiu Xing said, Kaguya Otsutsuki was slightly stunned.
Eh, is that what I was thinking?
Kaguya Otsutsuki subconsciously wanted to refute.
But when I thought about everything I had done, it seemed just like what the man in front of me said.
Because he was unwilling to be bound and become a victim, he launched a surprise attack on his superior.
This left Kaguya Otsutsuki unable to refute.
Looking at the silent Otsutsuki Kaguya in front of him, Otsutsuki Yangming was suddenly shocked. Could it be that this Uzumaki Kyuyuki wanted to...
Win over Kaguya Otsutsuki!
He subconsciously wanted to stop Jiu Xing's crazy behavior. This was Kaguya Otsutsuki, the Goddess of the Rabbit, the ancestor of Chakra. How could he let such a terrifying existence out!
However, at this moment he discovered that the black-haired man behind him had been standing behind him at some point, and a pair of reincarnation eyes glowing with purple fluorescence were silently staring at him.
At this moment, Jiu Xing turned around and looked at Otsutsuki Yangming, and gave him a smile with his black eyes.
At this moment, all of Jiu Xing's strength seemed to be concentrated at this moment, instantly suppressing Otsutsuki Yomei!
Uchiha Sasuke behind him also activated his second Rinnegan technique, and cooperated with Jiu Xing to suppress Otsutsuki Yomei!
"In a sense, we are in the same camp."
"We are afraid of the Otsutsuki clan and we hate this clan."
"You want to rebel against the group that made you a victim."
"And we naturally want to make this group that is plundering our planet so recklessly disappear."
"Isn't this the same front?"
Jiu Xing looked at the silent Kaguya Otsutsuki in front of him, and there seemed to be a layer of bewitching meaning in his words.
But Jiu Xing understood that Kaguya Otsutsuki did not really hate the Otsutsuki clan.
She hated the rules of the Otsutsuki clan.
Why should she sacrifice herself? Why should she die?
Why isn't she the superior who can just sit back and reap the benefits?
Why is she the subordinate who has to be treated like a beast of burden?
Just like the main and branch families of the Hyuga clan, Otsutsuki Isshiki is the main family and Otsutsuki Kaguya is the branch family.
Isshiki can gain the benefits brought by Kaguya's death.
But Kaguya was unwilling to be the sacrificed one.
She wants to be the one who benefits.
But this is the rule of the Otsutsuki. No matter how unwilling she is, she cannot change this situation.
So she took a risk and embarked on a rebellious path.
In the ancient world, all armies had so-called vanguard warriors. These people would often rush to the front line in siege battles. This was the most dangerous and deadly job.
But once you ascend to the city, you will enjoy endless wealth, fame and fortune, and even if you die, your family will receive a considerable pension.
Kaguya is like this vanguard death warrior, but the Otsutsuki clan does not have any reward after "climbing the city". Regardless of whether Otsutsuki Kaguya is willing to do this, no one wants to be a "vanguard death warrior".
"You want a concubine?"
Kaguya Otsutsuki stared at the red-haired man in front of her.
Listening to the other party's words, Jiu Xing froze slightly.
This woman is already a thousand-year-old woman, how can she still speak in an ambiguous way?
But when he thought about this thousand-year-old naive girl, Jiu Xing suppressed his nausea and nodded:
"If we can cooperate, we will have a better chance of winning against the Otsutsuki clan."
"We have the same goal and the same enemy."
“This is already the best possible cooperation condition.”
Kaguya Otsutsuki's eyes were dark, and she was obviously thinking about the feasibility of this idea in her mind.
"I want to be your concubine, but there is a condition."
Listening to the other party's words, Jiu Xing ignored the first half of the sentence and said:
"You said."
However, the other party's words made Jiu Xing slightly stunned.
"Hamura has passed away, so forget about him."
"And my unfilial son, I want him to... kneel before me and admit his fault."
Jiu Xing felt relieved when hearing the other party's slightly hesitant words.
After all, she is a mother. No matter what, Otsutsuki Hagoromo is her biological son. No matter what, Kaguya can't do anything to her son.
Jiu Xing originally thought that the other party wanted Otsutsuki Hagoromo to die, but he didn't expect that it would be just that.
It’s natural for a son to kneel before his mother.
Kneel down and admit your mistake.
Kaguya's conditions were quite simple for Jiu Xing.
I guess the old man Otsutsuki Hagoromo wouldn't mind, right?
"That's easy to say, is there anything else?"
Upon hearing this, Jiu Xing smiled kindly and spoke.
"No, as long as you can make that unfilial son kneel before me and admit his fault and apologize, I will be yours."
Kaguya Otsutsuki shook her head.
Jiu Xing ignored the second half of the other party's sentence, and then said:
"In that case, you will get what you want."
"Then please continue to wait here quietly for a few more days."
"That old man will appear in front of you."
Jiu Xing has already decided to force the old man Otsutsuki Hagoromo to admit his mistake and apologize in front of Kaguya.
No matter what the woman in front of him had done, Jiu Xing's purpose remained unchanged.
As long as they can defeat the Otsutsuki clan, they will try their best to gain even the slightest bit of strength.
