Chapter 1073: The Most Tragic Figure - Kaguya Otsutsuki
Chapter 1073: The Most Tragic Figure - Kaguya Otsutsuki
Kaguya Otsutsuki was originally a "desireless being." It was only after marrying a human on Earth and bearing children that she developed human emotions.
If asked who Kaguya Otsutsuki feared the most, the answer would undoubtedly be the Otsutsuki Clan.
Her fear of the Otsutsuki Clan ultimately led to her being sealed by her two sons.
In ancient times, Kaguya Otsutsuki and her "ward", Otsutsuki Ichigo, traveled to Earth to plant the God Tree.
As the "guardian", Kaguya Otsutsuki was originally supposed to be a living sacrifice, serving as the nourishment for the Ten-Tails Larva.
Since Kaguya's status was lower than Ichigo’s, she was to be the sacrificial victim.
However, just before the sacrifice, Kaguya ambushed and killed Ichigo, then consumed the fruit of the God Tree, becoming the progenitor of chakra.
With the immense power gained from the God Tree’s fruit, Kaguya used her Kekkei Genkai to bring peace to the chaotic world. She was revered as the "Goddess of the Hare" and greatly respected and worshipped in this world.
However, the fruit of the God Tree was a treasured secret of the Otsutsuki Clan. Upon learning that Kaguya had not only stolen the forbidden fruit but also killed Ichigo, the Otsutsuki Clan did not let the matter rest. They sent Otsutsuki Momoshiki, Otsutsuki Kinshiki, and Otsutsuki Ichigo to hunt her down.
Fearing the Otsutsuki Clan's retaliation, Kaguya, in an effort to resist them, activated the Infinite Tsukuyomi to create the White Zetsu. However, she was stopped by her two sons and ultimately sealed.
To be honest, throughout the entire series of the Hokage, there is no true villain. Even the final boss, Kaguya, is the most pitiful character.
First, she was chosen as the "guardian" of the God Tree, destined to be the nourishment for the Ten-Tails Larva. Then, on Earth, she found someone to entrust her heart and soul to, only to be betrayed by her cruel husband. Finally, she was sealed by her deeply trusted sons.
From being emotionless to becoming emotional, and then back to being emotionless, Kaguya's transformation is inextricably linked to the betrayals by those she trusted.
"I am not the reincarnation of Otsutsuki Hagoromo, nor am I a member of the Otsutsuki Clan. However, I know a great deal about you.
To be honest, if I could, I would not want to fight you. Your wish has always been to live a peaceful life, hasn't it?
If so, why not choose a quiet place to live in seclusion? This way, you can avoid unnecessary conflict."
Upon hearing Yecheng’s words, Kaguya’s expression first showed a hint of confusion. However, memories of the past quickly surfaced in her mind, and her expression turned extremely grim.
"This world is full of lies. Only by having power in your own hands can you avoid betrayal. Therefore, the chakra in your bodies should be returned to me!"
Her former husband had her handed over to an enemy country to quell their anger, and her two sons sealed her for a thousand years to prevent her from creating the White Zetsu.
If even her husband and children treated her this way, how could Kaguya Otsutsuki ever trust anyone in this world again?
Upon learning that Yecheng was not a member of the Otsutsuki Clan, Kaguya visibly relaxed.
Having consumed the fruit of the God Tree, she was in an immortal state. As long as Yecheng was not from the Otsutsuki Clan, there was no way to overpower her.
So, when she looked at Yecheng and the two others in front of her, her gaze ultimately fell on Naruto and Sasuke behind them.
In terms of chakra quantity and ability, Yashiro far surpasses Naruto and Sasuke. However, Kaguya had just seen through the Byakugan that Hagoromo had left the sealing technique to the reincarnated Asura and Indra.
In other words, while Yashiro is stronger, he might not be able to do much to her. However, the reincarnated Asura and Indra possess the ability to seal her.
To avoid being sealed again, Kaguya decided to eliminate the dangerous factors, Naruto and Sasuke, first.
In the next moment, Kaguya's several-meter-long blue-white hair, which seemed to have a life of its own, spread out behind her and shot out hair needles like steel pins toward Naruto and Sasuke.
Compared to Jiraiya's Thousand Needles, Kaguya's "Rabbit Hair Needles" are a Kekkei Genkai ability that not only shoots out a denser number of hair needles but also has a more devastating power, capable of easily piercing through Sasuke's Susanoo defense.
Even when Sasuke controlled his eagle summon to dodge, the eagle's wings were hit by Kaguya's Rabbit Hair Needles, causing a paralyzing effect.
With their summon gone, Naruto and Sasuke, lacking a foothold, were about to fall into the molten lava below when Yashiro intervened.
"Binding Spell No. 37: Star Suspension!"
A bed of light formed by a light screen connected to the surrounding rock walls appeared below Naruto and Sasuke, catching them.
Seeing this, Kaguya frowned and then swung her hand toward Naruto and the others.
"Eighty Gods Vacuum Thrust ——!"
Her chakra concentrated in her palm, and as she pushed her palm forward, multiple punches converged into an astonishing palm pressure, forming a vacuum field that swept toward Naruto and the others!
At the same time, Yashiro also punched, condensing his chakra into a vacuum strike.
The palm pressures collided mid-air, sending heat waves in all directions. However, as Yashiro and Kaguya were forced back by the impact, Naruto and Sasuke also took action.
Naruto, who had already mastered the ability to float, saw Kaguya retreat from the impact and immediately formed a Rasenshuriken imbued with the power of Shukaku's seal.
"Mother is the Chakra Ancestor, capable of absorbing all chakra. No matter what techniques you use, you won't even scratch her."
Kuro, hiding in Kaguya's sleeve, saw Naruto throw the Rasenshuriken and paid it no mind. However, just as he and Kaguya thought the Rasenshuriken would touch Kaguya's body and be absorbed, it transformed into Naruto's form mid-air.
Naruto, now in front of Kaguya, quickly formed another Shadow Clone, while Sasuke, using his Rinnegan ability, switched places with Naruto's clone.
In other words, Naruto and Sasuke had simultaneously arrived in front of Kaguya, successfully flanking her from both sides.
"Sasuke!"
In response to Naruto's call, Sasuke nodded and extended his right hand, revealing a moon mark on his palm.
The reincarnated Asura and Indra, once their mental strength reaches a certain level, can see the Sage of the Six Paths.
Naruto and Sasuke, who had previously seen the Sage of the Six Paths, not only received the gifts of Yin and Yang but also obtained the sealing technique, the strongest version of the Doton: Hiden no Jutsu.
