Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

"This……"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki paused slightly, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

"Hmm? Do you mean you want to break the contract?"

When Bai Yunqingye saw his expression, her eyes narrowed immediately.

If this old man can't handle the challenge, then he'll just have to let the other person continue to experience his punches.

According to Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, the other party was born from the Divine Tree because of human prayers.

In other words, he did not have a complete childhood.

In that case, he wouldn't mind making it up to him.

"That's not what I meant, it's just... never mind, if possible, could I meet Naruto and Sasuke first?"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki hesitated for a moment, then finally asked to see the reincarnations of his two children's chakra.

Although Shirokumo Aoba defeated him head-on, he was not at his peak.

His opponent might be stronger than him, but facing Kaguya Otsutsuki doesn't mean he could completely suppress her.

The final result will probably be a 50/50 split.

Of course, he didn't intend to break the contract.

Putting aside the fact that he is not the kind of person who breaks his word, just look at Baiyun Qingye's eyes right now.

He felt that if he dared to say anything in refusal, he would be in serious trouble.

The reason he suggested finding Naruto and Sasuke first was because they possessed a wisp of chakra inherited from his two children, which was a backup plan he had left behind.

It can quickly help the two improve their strength after they reach a bottleneck.

After all, he himself couldn't guarantee that the seal would remain stable forever, otherwise he wouldn't have been keeping an eye on it.

One white cloud and green leaf might not be enough, so let's add two more.

"Naruto and Sasuke..."

Upon hearing this, Baiyun Qingye roughly guessed what the other party was thinking.

This is an attempt to pass on the power of the Six Paths to the two of them ahead of time.

It can indeed be considered a contingency plan prepared in advance.

And of course, he wouldn't refuse such a good thing.

"Since that's the case, let's give them the power under the pretext of teaching them cultivation. As for their identities, let's not bring them up. They're just two strands of chakra; there's no need to drag any strange relationships into it."

After all, the two of them are living a good life now. It would be too strange if someone suddenly appeared and said something like, "I am your father from your past life."

However, Hagoromo Otsutsuki was somewhat taken aback.

It wasn't that he was surprised by Bai Yunqingye's request, but rather that the other party actually knew about his two children.

How did you find out about this?

The identities of herself and Hamura could be said to have been told to the other party by their mother, but as for the two children's chakra, not only did their mother not know much about it, but even Hamura himself didn't know much about it after he went to the moon. So how did the other party know?

Upon hearing this, Bai Yunqingye raised an eyebrow again. He suddenly realized that there seemed to be very few people in the original story who knew this, but there was one special person.

"You may not know this, but you actually have a younger brother who has been secretly causing trouble in the shadows all along."

"what?!"

The Otsutsuki brothers stared wide-eyed, clearly finding the matter unbelievable.

"In short, he's in my hands now. The reason your two children turned against each other back then was partly due to his instigation."

Baiyun Qingye offered a somewhat amused explanation.

"This...then he..."

Hagoromo Otsutsuki wanted to ask more questions.

However, Bai Yun Qingye waved his hand at him.

"Alright, I'll take you to see Naruto and Sasuke later. As for now, I promised Kaguya that I'd go and be with her after I finished dealing with this."

"and many more……"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki tried to call out to him, but Shirokumo Aoba had already returned to the sealed space.

"..."

For a time, both the riddle-solving behavior of Baiyun Qingye and the following sentence were discussed.

The two brothers were speechless.

Chapter 839 The True Otsutsuki Clan

"You're back?!"

This was the first thing Baiyun Qingye heard after returning to the sealed space.

Coupled with the slightly happy and relieved expression on Kaguya Otsutsuki's cool face, he felt like he was coming home to his wife after a long day of work.

He simply replied in agreement.

"Yes, I'm back."

He then sat back in the same spot he had been sitting in before.

However, as soon as he sat down, he immediately felt the intense, nervous gaze of the person next to him.

"You want to ask about Hagoromo Otsutsuki and the others?"

"Ok!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki nodded seriously.

Baiyun Qingye was silent for a moment, then said truthfully, "They said you are a very dangerous existence, who once almost destroyed the ninja world, and they don't want me to come into contact with you again."

Kaguya Otsutsuki was not surprised by the result, but her doe-like eyes still held a hint of unease and fear.

"Then... will you come again in the future?"

She had already spent enough time alone in this world where she had nothing.

If the other party had not appeared, she might have been able to endure it even after a thousand years.

But now, the thought of the other person never coming back fills her with inexplicable fear.

"So what Hagoromo and the others said is true?"

Shirokumo Aoba's expression also became more serious. Although he already knew about Kaguya Otsutsuki's past actions, he still hoped that she could tell him herself.

"..."

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki pursed her lips, a look of obvious hesitation flashing across her face, but she ultimately nodded.

"So much time has passed outside, do you know about the Otsutsuki clan?"

"Otsutsuki? I've heard that one branch of the Otsutsuki Hamura clan was the Otsutsuki clan, but it's almost extinct now."

"No, then it cannot be considered a true member of the Otsutsuki clan."

Kaguya Otsutsuki shook her head decisively. "The Otsutsuki clan is a race from outside this planet. They are immortal and can be resurrected even if they die."

"That's amazing?!"

Bai Yunqingye said, feigning surprise.

"Ok!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki's expression gradually became serious. She didn't argue, but told the truth: "Back then, I came to this planet with another member of my clan. Our mission was to plant the Divine Tree until it bore fruit."

"And the growth of the Divine Tree will devour a large number of lives on this planet, so it is true that it will destroy the ninja world."

After saying that, she looked nervously at Bai Yunqingye.

This was the first time she had trusted someone so much, so she told them everything. She was a little worried that the other person would hate her after learning the truth.

Bai Yunqingye was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh and ask, "What happened next? What happened after that? Didn't you say there was another member of the clan?"

If you only say these things, doesn't that confirm that you're the main villain?

Kaguya Otsutsuki felt relieved when she saw that Aoba Shirakumo didn't seem to dislike her because of this incident, so she continued talking.

"The growth of the divine tree not only requires life from the planet, but also a sacrifice from a member of the Otsutsuki clan. Then another person takes the fruit back after it ripens and hands it over to the main clan."

"So he was sacrificed?"

“According to the rules, the one of the two with the lower status is like a puppet, brought here as a sacrifice to the sacred tree. The one who should have been sacrificed was originally me, but I didn’t want to live like a puppet forever, so I ambushed him in the end, sacrificed him, and then ate the fruit myself…”

Kaguya Otsutsuki's eyes, unusually, lacked some of their former innocence, revealing a hint of determination.

Baiyun Qingye blinked. "You didn't take the fruit back; instead, you ate it yourself. Doesn't that mean you betrayed the Otsutsuki clan?"

"……Um."

Kaguya Otsutsuki bit her lip lightly, "Because I don't want to live as a sacrifice anymore. If I take the fruit back with me, or have someone else take the fruit back, I will still be that lowly sacrifice in the future. As long as we prepare in advance, we will not die even if we are sacrificed, and we can still sacrifice again next time."

"I understand."

Baiyun Qingye revealed a knowing expression, then smiled and said, "So it seems we're on the same side now, right?"

"Huh?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki was taken aback upon hearing this.

Baiyun Qingye then asked, "Would you still destroy the ninja world in the future to plant the divine tree?"

"The fruit of the Divine Tree had already ripened, and I had already eaten it. However, when I was sealed, Hagoromo and Hamura removed the fruit from my body."

Kaguya Otsutsuki shook her head, then earnestly reminded her again.

"But I betrayed the Otsutsuki clan and haven't been back for so long. Other clansmen will definitely come to this planet to find me and continue to plunder it. You've unified the ninja world, so you need to prepare in advance."

Shirokumo Aoba then asked, "So that means if the Otsutsuki clan descends in the future, you will fight them with me, right?"

In the original storyline, it seems that Kaguya Otsutsuki created White Zetsu to fight against the Otsutsuki clan that would descend upon the land in the future.

However, it is clearly no longer needed now.
