Chapter 515

Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo had already suffered extremely severe injuries,

which caused his strength to decline rather than improve,

so after passing on the Shinobi Sect to Asura,

Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo's life came to an end!!!

And now, the sight of Hashirama Senju and Kaguya Ōtsutsuki,

made the Sage of Six Paths, Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo, feel utterly helpless,

because he believed only he truly cared for this world!!

His thoughts were the best for this world,

yet Kaguya Ōtsutsuki and the others seemed unable to understand him,

they even regarded themselves as the greatest toxin to this world,

which filled the Sage of Six Paths with furious rage!!

At this moment, Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo believed that Hashirama Senju and Kaguya Ōtsutsuki,

were not the most correct leaders of this world,

only he himself was the most correct leader of this world!!

【Jiraiya: Tsk tsk... this Sage of Six Paths is putting on a truly disgraceful display... from another perspective, he's utterly repulsive.】

【Orochimaru: Heh... the Sage of Six Paths... in the end, he's merely a powerful ordinary human... perhaps power has long since clouded his mind, turning him into what he is now...】

【Madara Uchiha: How utterly disappointing!! The legendary Sage of Six Paths is this?... Is this the kind of character worthy of being called a legendary immortal?】

【Fourth Raikage: Even now, I still can't understand one thing—why is the Sage of Six Paths like this? He clearly still had the ability to change this world, and he always knew the direction of our world, yet he never once intervened to help us...】

【Tobirama Senju: Hmph!... Perhaps he still carries a godlike arrogance—he sees himself as a supreme deity, and the development of our world is merely the progress of mortals, utterly unworthy of his interference...】

【Kumogakure no Meimei: If Hashirama Senju hadn't been vastly superior in strength to the Sage of Six Paths, he wouldn't dare speak to him this way... Strength is truth; it seems this applies to everyone.】

【Naruto Uzumaki: But this Sage of Six Paths is just too long-winded—this old man talks for so long, why doesn't he just act?】

【Sasuke Uchiha: Hmph... judging by how weak he looks, he clearly has no capacity to act—if he could, he would've already struck down Hashirama Senju. And after his previous failures, he probably doesn't even have the courage to attack Hashirama Senju anymore, right?】

【Kakashi Hatake: It seems all these ancestors are the same—though they contributed to this world in their time, the longer they exist, the more they hinder its development...】

"Kaguya... I came here specifically for you..."

"My view differs from Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo's..."

"I don't believe you necessarily pose a threat to this world."

"Your persistent pursuit of the Infinite Tsukuyomi is merely due to fear that the Ōtsutsuki clan from the cosmos will come to this world."

"But I can resolve this concern for you..."

"Kaguya... if you're willing to submit to me, I will lead you toward a new future!!"

Hashirama Senju's calm tone carried an overwhelming confidence!!

Upon hearing Hashirama Senju say this,

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki felt not the slightest resentment,

but instead vaguely thought perhaps Hashirama Senju was right,

if she were to ally herself with Hashirama Senju,

and make him her refuge, he might truly have a way to resolve her Ōtsutsuki clan's troubles,

though Kaguya Ōtsutsuki herself didn't know why she had this thought,

yet it was her subconscious, instinctive reaction,

she believed Hashirama Senju might truly have a way to help her against the Ōtsutsuki clan,

if anyone else had spoken these words to Kaguya Ōtsutsuki,

she would have been enraged beyond control!!

Even facing someone stronger than herself, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki would rather die than bow or submit!!

But now, Hashirama Senju's words stirred not a single trace of resentment within Kaguya Ōtsutsuki,

she believed Hashirama Senju might truly become her sanctuary!!

This left the Sage of Six Paths utterly stunned for a long moment!!

He hadn't expected Hashirama Senju to actually try to recruit his own mother and stand beside him??

281. Kaguya's Resistance: I want to see the gap between us!

After Hashirama Senju said this,

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's face showed an expression of "I knew it"—calm, unsurprised!!

Because from the start, she had recognized the gap in strength between herself and Hashirama Senju,

yet Hashirama Senju had never attacked her!!

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki knew his intentions were likely far more complex.

Now Kaguya Ōtsutsuki understood why Hashirama Senju had never attacked her,

it was because he intended to recruit her,

or rather, to make her serve him!!!

"But... your strength has long surpassed mine and Ōtsutsuki Isshiki."

"I probably can't offer you much help in terms of strength—so why do you still want me to serve you?"

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's face showed a look of deep confusion,

she couldn't understand why Hashirama Senju's strength far surpassed hers and Ōtsutsuki Isshiki,

yet still wanted her to serve him?!

This way of speaking and acting completely exceeded Kaguya Otsutsuki's own imagination,

"Mm… actually, you don't need to have too many doubts."

"I'm just curious about the constitution you members of the Otsutsuki clan carry…"

"And I think you're rather different from Otsutsuki Isshiki and the others; there's no irreconcilable hatred between us."

"So I believe we can still get along harmoniously."

A faint smile hung on Hashirama Senju's face,

as he spoke his thoughts to Kaguya Otsutsuki!!

And the thoughts he had spoken

were in fact not a deception of Kaguya Otsutsuki—

in his heart, that was truly what he thought!!

In his own mind's view,

Kaguya Otsutsuki seemed rather different from the other members of the Otsutsuki clan;

at the very least, she was not so arrogant within her heart,

nor did she believe that all the people of this world should become her food!!!

The reason she wanted to transform back into the Ten-Tails

and plant the Divine Tree's fruit

was simply to resist the Otsutsuki clan coming from beyond the heavens!!!

【Jiraiya: Hiss… First Hokage my lord… he actually even wants to subdue Kaguya Otsutsuki… looks like he'd long since had such an idea…】

【Orochimaru: When it comes to means and strategy, the First Hokage is who-knows-how-many times more brilliant than the Sage of Six Paths… There clearly wasn't such a great conflict between Kaguya Otsutsuki and this world; if only the Sage of Six Paths had been willing to communicate with Kaguya Otsutsuki, she could have completely stood on our side and become an asset to our world, yet he turned her into an enemy…】

【Tsunade: Hmph… the Sage of Six Paths… he only wanted to turn this world into his own private property; he never once thought of doing anything for this world…】

【Fourth Raikage: That's right… the Sage of Six Paths was truly far too arrogant; he always looked upon this world with a condescending attitude… otherwise this world wouldn't have ended up the way it is now…】

【Ohnoki: Heh heh… although the Sage of Six Paths spread the power of ninjutsu down to us, that doesn't mean this world is all his plaything; we have our own thoughts…】

【Terumi Mei: It's truly too shameful to speak of… the Sage of Six Paths looking like this must have shocked every one of us; I never imagined he was like this either…】

【Naruto Uzumaki: What the… this old grandpa looks like a good person on the surface, but has he actually never done anything good for this world?】

【Minato Namikaze: If it weren't for the appearance of the livestream system, I'm afraid none of us could have imagined that the legendary Sage of Six Paths actually turned out to be like this…】

……

And when the Sage of Six Paths heard Hashirama Senju say this,

the expression on his face changed again and again!!!

"Hashirama Senju… do you even know what you're saying?!"
