Naruto: They are all reborn

Chapter 31 Kaguya
In the room, the two of them were chatting casually.

What exactly are you talking about?

Even Shi Ou, who was in a clear mind, could not answer. He was just chatting instinctively to provide emotional value to Tsunade who urgently needed to vent her unhappiness.

The person who is speaking is not in a clear mind. He may be talking about something that happened more than ten years ago in the last second, and may be talking about something that happened on the battlefield in the next second.

But no matter what, in the end, the two of them talked about the operation that took place during the day... no, it should be said that it was an experiment.

Tsunade, half drunk and half awake, held the cup and drank the water as if it were wine: "Actually, I have never done this operation before, and I have never met this person."

"Isn't this normal?"

This was a strange thing to say, but Shi Xu didn't think much of it.

The saying "truth comes out when drunk" is just for reference. People who are not in a clear mind have fuzzy memories, so how can they possibly speak the truth?

Tsunade ignored Toki's reaction and tried to recall: "What was I doing at that time?"

"Well... I'm researching medical ninjutsu. Since Nawaki died, I want to research more medical ninjutsu and popularize it in Konoha Village."

Nawaki, Tsunade's younger brother, died shortly after the war began.

Shi Xu remained silent and didn't dare to speak easily.

"I remember... that time when I was preparing medicine for you. Your health was really poor, and the dosage of the tonic had to be controlled very precisely. It took me a lot of effort to figure out the right ratio."

Ok?
Shi Xu looked up at her and almost instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell exactly what it was.

"Those bastards! Bastards!"

Tsunade suddenly became agitated and cursed through gritted teeth.

"I didn't realize it before, I didn't realize it at all. I can't imagine how many people they killed with Hashirama's cells!"

"Hashirama cells?"

The doubts in Shi Xu's mind were immediately replaced by this new term. Is that delicious chakra extracted from this kind of cells?

"Toki, do you know?"

Tsunade put down the cup, stood up, and fell to the ground after taking only two steps.

Shi Xu immediately jumped up and grabbed her, but because they were too hasty, they both fell to the ground: "Teacher, has anyone ever told you that you have a really bad drinking habit?"

"Yes," Tsunade said dazedly with her eyes closed, "You said so."

"Huh—learning and applying right away."

Shi Xu pushed her away, stood up from the ground, picked her up and put her on the sofa.

"Teacher, what were you about to say?"

"Hmm... let me think..." Tsunade leaned on him, her warm breath hitting his neck regularly.

"I remember now. The so-called Hashirama cells are my grandfather's cells. My grandfather is the only one in the world who possesses such a powerful vitality. They dug up my grandfather's grave, insulted his body, and then used these cells to kill others, just to gain his power."

"Wood Release, Wood Release... What's so great about Wood Release? He's never beaten me at the gambling table..."

As she was speaking, Tsunade's head tilted and she fell asleep.

Shixu: ...

"Now I know who you learned this gambling skill from."

He took off Tsunade's coat, wet a towel with hot water and wiped the places that were wet by the rain, then put her on the bed to rest.

Tokisou wasn't interested in people who couldn't respond, so he just took advantage of them a little and went to prepare the tatami for himself.

After everything was done, he stood in front of the window, watching the rain for a while, and then stared at the wedge in his palm in a daze.

"When the First Hokage founded Konoha, did he ever think that he would end up like this after his death?"

Shi Xu cursed with a half-smile, turned off the lights, and lay down to rest.

What does it have to do with me? Anyway, when I die, I must find a place where no one can find me.

Listening to the sound of rain, his consciousness gradually became blurred. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a desolate world.

"Nice to meet you, my 'vessel'."

The voice was unfamiliar, but Shi Xu recognized it immediately. It was the female voice as clear and cold as the moon.

He turned around and saw a woman floating in the air, as if waiting for him.

She wore a pristine white robe, embellished with black magatama beads. Her long, silvery hair flowed behind her like the tail of a wedding dress. She had two horns on her forehead, pure white eyes, and a slit between her eyebrows, where something seemed to be hidden.

The most peculiar thing is her skin, which is white, very white, so white that it almost doesn't seem like a color that a human can have.

Shi Xu stretched out his right hand: "Are you the owner of the wedge?"

The woman nodded slightly and flew in front of him: "I am Kaguya, Kaguya Otsutsuki."

"Kaguya? I've never heard of that name."

Kaguya pondered for a moment, then added, "Those humans call me the Goddess of Uo."

Shi Xu's pupils shrank slightly. He was familiar with this name. She was the goddess who, according to legend, ended war and brought peace. But when the legend became reality, he had to doubt its authenticity.

"Where is this place?" he asked.

"Your spiritual world," she replied.

"Is my spiritual world so desolate?"

"Spiritual appearances are meaningless."

Hearing this, Shi Xu seemed to be lost in thought, and suddenly a set of tables and chairs and steaming hot tea appeared beside him.

He pulled out a chair like a British gentleman and invited her to sit down. "You call me 'vessel' because of the 'wedge', right? Can you tell me what it is?"

Kaguya flew over and sat down. After he sat down across from her, she continued, "The wedge is a secret technique used by the Otsutsuki clan for reincarnation. It replicates oneself and transforms it into data, which is then injected into a container. Over time, the data will thaw and transform the container's body."

"In other words, your body will be my backup."

"Is this a compressed package?" Shi Xu raised his right hand and looked at it, his eyes filled with confusion. "When are you planning to take over my body?"

Kaguya shook her head slightly: "No."

"why?"

"Two conditions must be met to activate the reincarnation ritual: first, the data of the wedge must be completely unfrozen; second, the Ōtsutsuki who drove the wedge must die."

In an instant, Shi Xu's breathing became heavy, and this desolate world began to tremble.

"You mean?"

A hint of pride appeared on Kaguya's face. "I am truly immortal and indestructible. I am the closest being to the Otsutsuki God."

Shi Xu was exposed to so much information in such a short period of time that his thoughts became complicated. He couldn't figure it out for a while, so he simply asked for more information.

"Who is the Otsutsuki God?"

"Shibai, he has transcended the concept of life and death, and voluntarily gave up his body and left this dimension." When she said this, there was a bit more envy in Kaguya's eyes.

"You come from another dimension, so I chose you."

She is so easy to understand, her delicate little face is like a screen that can write down her mood.

Shi Xu tilted his head slightly: "So... you need me to help you gain the power to transcend dimensions?"

Kaguya's face turned serious and she said angrily, "No, the first thing you have to do is to rescue me."

Shi Xu: ???
　It's paid off.
